Once favored by ***, she is the first national treasure-level actress to win the Hundred Flowers Award. However, she made an astonishing move in her illustrious career - she immigrated to the United States and launched a masterpiece, which led to a wave of overseas fever at the time.
For her move, some people questioned her Chongyang and her identity as a descendant of Yan and Huang. However, as the years passed, when she faltered, she chose to return to her roots and enjoy her old age in China.
She is Zhu Xijuan, a weathered art master, how to interpret her choices and achievements? Why did you earn the title of "artist"? Let's take a look at the story of this legendary woman.
When Zhu Xijuan decided to abandon everything and move to the United States when she was over half a hundred years old, although she had already achieved fame and love in the United States, this move caused an uproar in China.
Her choices have been questioned, criticized for being ungrateful to the land where she was raised, and accusing her of living abroad as unsatisfying at home. However, in the face of these criticisms, Zhu Xijuan chose to remain silent and firmly embarked on a trip to the United States, and since then, her footprints have never returned to the land of her motherland, leaving decades of blanks and speculations.
In the face of everyone's incomprehension and doubts, Zhu Xijuan resolutely founded her own film and television company in the United States and devoted herself to her career. However, bringing Chinese culture abroad is not an easy task, especially when the language barrier lies between her and the Americans, and Zhu Xiaojuan faces a huge challenge.
In the beginning, she relied on on-the-spot dictionary translation to bridge the communication gap with sincerity, but the efficient pace of the business world made her realize that time was of the essence, and many people failed to give her enough patience.
Despite the difficulties, she persevered and was determined to break down cultural barriers with her actions and efforts.
With firm determination and unremitting struggle, Zhu Xijuan has promoted the company's leap with English strength as the cornerstone. Her ** work "Beijinger in New York", a true portrayal of the life of overseas Chinese, has attracted attention at the box office in the United States and has also aroused enthusiastic responses in China.
However, the film's idealized depiction of overseas life unexpectedly inspired the American Dream and gave birth to a boom in going abroad.
Zhu Xijuan suffered strong negative emotions"Malicious speculation"The label is relentlessly attached to her. In the face of an unexpected film and television sensation, she decisively devoted herself to the production of another masterpiece - "Baijiahui 100".
The film delves into the ugliness and darkness behind the superficial prosperity of the United States, in sharp contrast to "Pekingese in New York". It is like a beacon, allowing Chinese people to deeply understand the hardships and difficulties of living in a foreign country after watching the movie.
Zhu Xijuan's film career is dazzling, enriching the domestic film and television industry with works that deeply explore the essence of American films. Although her decisions behind the screen have been controversial, her name has always been hotly debated, both in praise and criticism.
When people thought that she would choose to spend the rest of her life in the United States, she unexpectedly decided to return to her roots, which undoubtedly caused a new round of emotional waves in China. Some speculate that her return is due to economic reasons, but what is the truth?
Zhu Xijuan's innermost choices and considerations are worthy of our in-depth exploration.
Zhu Xijuan's trip abroad did not stem from blind worship of foreign countries, but out of a fiery patriotic heart, and she looked forward to promoting the rapid development of the motherland through her personal efforts.
Born in a scholarly family, her parents are both scholars, and her sister's brilliant achievements after graduating from Fudan University inspired her. However, the turmoil of the war and the difficult times of the country prevented her from pursuing higher education as she wished.
Behind her choice is a deep concern for educational equity and the rise of the nation.
After the society stabilized, Zhu Xijuan settled in Shanghai with her family, and by chance, director Zhao Dan had the insight to play a small role in a film, and this experience inspired her to love acting.
She immediately decided to join the Shanghai Theater Academy and study performing arts in depth. In 1960, the epic masterpiece "Red Detachment of Women" was born, and Zhu Xijuan miraculously played the protagonist "Wu Qionghua", becoming famous in one fell swoop and having a bright star journey.
Zhu Xijuan with"Red Detachment of Women"won the first Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, which she won at the age of 24"People's Artist"reputation.
Standing on the podium, Guo Moruo personally awarded the trophy and praised it personally, and her influence can be seen. However, despite the many follow-up works, it failed to reproduce the glory of "Red Detachment of Women", which undoubtedly made the young Zhu Xijuan feel deep pressure.
In 1983, the clarion call for reform sounded in Shenzhen, and Zhu Xijuan resolutely bid farewell to Shanghai and devoted herself to the construction of this hot land. Her outstanding contribution is to lead Shenzhen TV to the pinnacle of glory by herself, and to experience Shenzhen's transformation from barren to prosperous.
However, this woman will never stop and firmly believe that film and television art should break through national boundaries and pursue an international vision. She firmly believes that only the global integration of cultures can pave the way for the rapid development of Shenzhen and even China.
In order to chase the longing in her heart, Zhu Xijuan bravely turned her back on the world's gaze and embarked on a journey in a foreign country. Although the years have left their mark on her sideburns, her spirit is still rejuvenated.
Founded in the United States"Qionghua Film and Television Art Company"It is a testimony of her tenacity and determination and deep affection for the motherland. During this period, she skillfully integrated Eastern and Western cultures, integrating American style with Chinese feelings, resulting in the birth of the classic "Pekingese in New York", she is an innovator of the times and a cultural bridge.
Zhu Xijuan's original intention was to reveal reality through the film and arouse the awareness of Chinese people to learn from the United States, but it inadvertently had the opposite effect. She judged the situation and took "Baijiahui 100" as a new starting point to face and shatter the American dream of the Chinese people.
Since then, she has devoted herself to how to inspire all walks of life in China with her film and television works, and finally her efforts have borne successful fruits.
With the growth of the years, Zhu Xijuan cherished a deep nostalgia and chose to return to her roots and return to the embrace of her motherland and hometown.
Despite the controversy and the opposition of her children, these could not shake her resolve. After returning to her homeland, she stayed true to her original intention, devoted herself to her previous career, and touched people's hearts with her profound works, showing a choice without regrets.
Today, Zhu Xijuan and her partner enjoy their old age in a quiet nursing home, and their lives are simple but full of happiness. What do you think of this plain and deep beauty?
