Lian Yiming, the tough guy on the screen, made the audience love and hate. loves his tough guy image, hates his marital betrayal, and is ruthless to his wife and daughter. After divorcing his ex-wife Chen Shi, he married his new love Yang Ruoxi, but this had a huge impact on his career.
Over the years, their situation has been very different, and the gap between the two sides is like the difference between heaven and earth.
Lian Yiming is a Peking Opera actor who received professional training at the National Peking Opera Company. So, how did he go from being a Peking Opera actor to an actor?
In a talk show, he explained this. He said that his career change was entirely due to his own constraints.
Lian Yiming once became active on the stage with his Peking Opera "Flower Face" voice, but with the growth of age and the arrival of the voice change period, his voice is no longer as loud as before. Not only that, but Lian Yiming's height is also growing, which has an impact on his image as a character on stage.
In order to maintain the beauty of the character's image, Lian Yiming once pressed himself with bricks in the crew to suppress the growth of height.
Even though the bricks were crushed, Lian Yiming's height still reached 184cm, which made him realize that he might not be able to go far in the field of Peking Opera. Lian Yiming pointed out that the image of Peking Opera performers is usually fuller and more in line with Chinese aesthetics.
However, if you are too tall, the performance may appear stiff, in the jargon called "arms and legs", which lacks beauty and affects the overall stage effect.
Without an excellent body shape and voice, Lian Yiming lost his advantage in playing the role of Hua Face, and may not be able to give full play to his acting skills, and can only play some small roles.
In other teams, such conditions are not taken seriously, and his chances of getting a chance to perform will be greatly reduced. Even his Peking Opera teacher said helplessly: "This is the ancestor who doesn't appreciate the food!" ”
In the midst of the predicament, Lian Yiming is forced to find a new path. However, the road ahead is full of unknowns, and what will his future be? However, fortunately, there is no end to it.
When Lian Yiming thought that he had no way out, God gave him a new opportunity. And it was this opportunity that he got involved in the field of "film and television".
He was hoping to earn some extra income to support himself, but he didn't expect it to start a new path in life. The height and image, which are questioned in Peking Opera, have become the most popular elements in the film and television industry.
Someone suggested to him: "You have such a great figure and Peking Opera skills, why don't you consider being a stand-in?" ”
Lian Yiming's outstanding image has shattered the general perception of the martial arts world, and his lost value in the Peking Opera industry has been rediscovered in the film and television industry. At that time, Jet Li's "Once Upon a Time" was being filmed, and Lian Yiming was selected as the actor.
He heeded the advice and began his acting career. Lian Yiming contracted almost all the high-risk actions in the play as a stand-in, and although the salary was high, the risk was also extremely high.
At first, he didn't reveal his work to his family. In order not to worry his family, Lian Yiming always joked: "I'm going to be a dragon Jet Li!" ”
Although these words sounded funny, the pain in Lian Yiming's heart could only be experienced by himself. He had considered giving up, but his pride didn't allow him to give up easily.
After experiencing the personal experience of an actor, Lian Yiming developed a true love for this profession and made up his mind to change careers. He first came to Hong Kong and acted in some films with small roles.
Lian Yiming did not attract much attention in Hong Kong because of the language communication barrier, he returned to the mainland and signed a contract with Hairun Film and Television Company, successfully creating a series of "tough guy" images.
In 2001, he participated in "Hero Zheng Chenggong" and won wide recognition.
His acting career is thriving, not only with continuous film appointments, but also with many popular TV series. Among them, "A Pair of Embroidered Shoes" is particularly eye-catching, and has even been hailed as the pinnacle of Chinese suspense TV dramas.
In addition, in May 2005, he made his debut as the director of the TV series "Wildfire Spring Breeze Fighting Ancient City", showing his talent behind the scenes. At the same time, his personal life also developed beautifully, and he met his ex-wife Chen Shi (later renamed Chen Jiayan).
Chen Shi, a young man from a wealthy family and a graduate of Chinese opera, has developed his acting career smoothly. However, his marriage was full of drama. In July 2004, he met Lian Yiming, confirmed his relationship a month later, and got married four months later, which was a surprise.
Actually, it all started with a fire.
It turned out that a fire broke out during the shooting, and the fire spread rapidly, and director Lian Yiming rushed into the fire scene without hesitation to rescue, and was seen by Chen Shi, who happened to be in the safety zone. Regardless of the danger, Chen Shi immediately rushed into the sea of fire to rescue Lian Yiming, and the fate of the two was frozen.
After getting married, Chen Shi gave birth to a lovely daughter.
Lian Yiming and Chen Shi were once regarded as a model of "if you don't leave me, I will live and die together", however, their marriage only lasted five years, which is regrettable.
The reason for the divorce was that Lian Yiming empathized with actress Yang Ruoxi during her marriage. Although Chen Shi was once brave and fearless in order to save Lian Yiming, in the end, they still lost to "Freshness".
Chen Shi had noticed the subtle changes in her husband, but she chose to trust and did not say much. However, the final reality shattered her illusions, and Lian Yiming filed for divorce from Chen Shi.
He decided to give up all his property and only wanted to give Yang Ruoxi a name. For men, once they decide to leave, there is no room for redemption.
Faced with the predicament, Chen Shi had no choice but to divorce and raise his daughter alone. And Lian Yiming did not sink, but fell in love with Yang Ruoxi. On November 12, 2011, they held a low-key wedding in Chongqing, and Lian Yiming ushered in the "second spring" of his life.
Three years later, they had a lovely son.
In contrast, the life of his ex-wife Chen Shi is much more difficult, and it is not easy to raise children alone. However, good is rewarded, evil is rewarded, although Lian Yiming's life seems to be complete after the divorce, but in fact, God has already marked all his actions**.
After divorcing Chen Shi, Lian Yiming's image in the eyes of everyone plummeted, and he became a ruthless and unrighteous person who abandoned his wife and children, which had a serious impact on his career.
The good reputation and audience popularity that he once accumulated were also ruined because of problems in his private life.
Although Lian Yiming has a good performance in the entertainment industry, his drama appointments are becoming fewer and fewer, and the audience's attention has also dropped significantly. After all, people cannot tolerate infidelity in marriage.
Lian Yiming was once a talented young man who started acting at the age of 19 and became an action director at the age of 23, and his future is full of hope. However, an emotional lapse cost him dearly and almost ruined his future.
Although Lian Yiming has been out of the screen for many years, he has not created impressive works. Even he plays mostly small supporting roles in the play. The former "glory of the actor" is gone, and his career is no longer at its peak.
Although he played the domineering demon king Qingcang in the popular "Three Lives and Three Worlds" in recent years, for many people, it is still difficult to immediately remember who he is when they see his face.
Once hailed"Tough guy"'s Lian Yiming, but now he has become a nameless person who is only familiar to others. Even if other actors enter middle age, they are still full of energy, like teenagers, but Lian Yiming already has obvious gray hair.
The memory of the Internet is endless, and even Yiming's past behavior cannot be forgotten, and he has already paid the due price for his mistakes.
Heaven is a good reincarnation, and the gears of fate always turn inadvertently. Lian Yiming's life seems to be gradually going to a low point, but his ex-wife Chen Shi is like a bright star, attracting more and more attention.
When they divorced, Chen Shi's life was quite difficult, and for the sake of her family, she had faded out of the showbiz for a long time. However, for the sake of her daughter, she bravely chose to make a comeback and starred in many TV series, such as the Queen Mother in "The Promotion of the Crown Princess", the Queen Mother in "The Cute Concubine Arrives", etc., all of which received a good response, and her resources have also improved.
In 2016, Chen Shi became the gold medal host of the online variety show "Grandma Said" with his outstanding performance, showing his versatility and eye-catching.
Although Lian Yiming is still active in the entertainment industry, his influence and popularity are not as good as before, and he seems a little lonely. If it were today, it might be difficult for Lian Yiming to have a chance to make a comeback.
I wonder if Lian Yiming will feel a trace of regret when he sees the achievements of his ex-wife Chen Shi?
