Do you remember Tang Guoqiang's role as Zhuge Liang in the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? He was once an idol in the hearts of many, an idealistic young man.
However, as soon as he took off his costume, the aura of that life coach faded away. Why did he change from an actor with a passion for art to an artist who was paramount?
25-year-old Tang Guoqiang was at a low point in his career, when a girl named Sun Tao broke into his life, and the two had a good heart.
Sun Tao was working in Beijing Bayi at that time, and his family was well-off. Her appearance rekindled the fighting spirit of the depressed Tang Guoqiang. This encounter made Tang Guoqiang's most unforgettable life story.
With the help of Sun Tao's connections, Tang Guoqiang successfully transferred from a small local troupe to work in Bayi Pharmaceutical Factory, which not only brought him a stable income, but also opened up a broader career development space for him. With Sun Tao's support, Tang Guoqiang has taken an important step in his acting career.
Tang Guoqiang and popular rising star Chen Chong collaborated on the movie "Little Flower" at Bayi Studio, and they showed an amazing tacit understanding on the set, calling each other "brother" and "sister", and the relationship was close.
What's even more striking is that Chen Chong publicly smeared cream on Tang Guoqiang's face at his birthday party and praised his ** delicateness with a smile, which caused a lot of controversy and suspicion at the time.
The movie "Little Flower" was a great success, and at the same time, Tang Guoqiang also announced the good news of his marriage to Sun Tao. However, the marriage began to have problems. In just two years, Sun Tao gave birth to a daughter for Tang Guoqiang.
Sun Tao shouldered the burden of taking care of the family and children alone, while Tang Guoqiang had to take on some soft roles in order to make up for the family.
The role of "cherishing spring" in the TV series "Peacock Princess" is the most typical. Tang Guoqiang was completely labeled as a "cream student" because of the play, which caused many directors to avoid it, and his career development was affected to a certain extent.
During the filming of the movie "In Cold Blood", Tang Guoqiang unexpectedly met a female fan who was fascinated by him. The two soon fell into an ambiguous relationship.
Although Tang Guoqiang's marriage to Sun Tao has lasted for more than a decade, he seems to have some idea of the prospects of this relationship. The cheating incident dealt a huge blow to the relationship between Tang Sun and his wife.
After learning the news that Tang Guoqiang planned to remarry, Sun Tao chose to hang herself at home, and she left two suicide notes, one to explain the aftermath, and the other to ask her daughter to avenge herself. However, Tang Guoqiang reacted coldly to the sudden death of his wife, and soon entered into marriage with Zhuangli. This is undoubtedly a trampling on Sun Tao's feelings.
Although Tang Guoqiang has a successful career and a successful life on the surface, his heart has become numb and dull. This series of events undoubtedly became a major turning point in his life, revealing the difficulties and pains of love and marriage.
However, after Sun Tao's death, Tang Guoqiang not only became a highly respected old artist, but also was given the title of "artist"!
Although he became famous after successfully playing the role of "Zhuge Liang" in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Tang Guoqiang's acting career was not smooth. The conflict between marital problems and the peak of his career put him at a low point for a while.
It was at this time that he seemed to see some new opportunities in the advertising industry. The popular actor Tang Guoqiang has become the new favorite of the commercial advertising industry, because such opportunities allow him to see new prospects.
Because of the money, he began to take on a lot of commercials, not caring about the quality of the work. He has been involved in all types of advertising, from food to medicine, from machinery to training, and has his advertisements in every aspect of life.
So much so that people began to label him as an "advertising professional", ignoring his acting skills, and he was criticized for it.
Tang Guoqiang chose to leave when his career was at its peak, sparking immigration speculation. Rumors of multiple trips abroad have exacerbated this speculation, and an airport photo has sparked the enthusiasm of netizens.
Despite the broker's denials, it was not possible to quell the public's outrage. Next, the expensive solo exhibition of calligraphy and painting sparked criticism again, and the tickets** were far from the general public. A series of events exposed Tang Guoqiang's moral degradation and materialism in his later years.
From talented performers to eclipsed philistines, the image is tarnished. The aura of what was once a high-profile has faded away, and public evaluation has fallen to the bottom. The once brilliant acting career is now bleak, and Tang Guoqiang lost himself in the mistaken pursuit of money.
However, the reason why Tang Guoqiang embarked on this lost path is worth pondering. As an actor, he has been in the spotlight for a long time and is under great pressure of fame and fortune. His career was full of ups and downs, his relationship was bumpy, and the multiple blows made him lose his motivation to move forward.
In those days, the advertising industry offered the opportunity to make easy money, perhaps to fill the void in his heart. Although his choice was incorrect, the supervision was not strict, the endorsement culture was prevalent, and many actors were affected by money**, Tang Guoqiang was not alone.
The group of actors has long been under the public scrutiny, and their behavior has been in the spotlight. Sometimes even a word or deed can have a huge repercussion, and the pressure is unimaginable.
Tang Guoqiang wants to get rid of these pressures for a while, and it is not surprising that he travels abroad to relieve stress. But as soon as the rumors spread, they immediately attracted criticism. In this day and age, celebrities have lost their personal space.
In the end, it is safe to say that Tang Guoqiang has gone a little too far on the road to commercialization. However, no one can deny his talent and acting skills. Over the years, he has put a lot of effort into acting.
Life cannot be denied because of one or two mistakes. Who can be without fault? Just like Zhuge Liang, he also made the mistake of publicly misleading others. We should treat others with a tolerant heart, and only a little more tolerance can resolve the moral crisis in the entertainment industry.
Tang Guoqiang's changes give us a warning: people's hearts are unpredictable, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil. The external image often does not reflect the inner essence. When considering his status in the entertainment industry, should he pay careful attention to his subsequent words and deeds, or directly deny it?
Maybe only time will reveal all the answers, Tang Guoqiang's story has not yet come to an end, let's look forward to the moment when the truth is revealed.
