Remember the 90s when "beating women" came out and "kung fu movies" were brilliant?
Hu Huizhong, the leading jade girl of Taiwanese literary and art films in the 80s and the "number one hit woman" of Hong Kong films in the 90s, can also play with her appearance, a face that blends purity and charm, heroism and elegance, even in the beautiful Xiangjiang film industry.
She became popular immediately after her debut, and at the age of 20, she was ranked as one of the "Four Beauties" alongside Lin Qingxia, Hu Yinmeng and Zhou Danwei;
She is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with the "Overlord Flower" series of movies, but she is seriously burned due to her dedication to filming;
The second and third from the right in the picture above are Hu Huizhong and Lin Qingxia
Her acting path is quite smooth, but the emotional road is very bumpy: she was forced to break up with her first love when she was a teenager, and her husband was imprisoned in middle age... No matter how beautiful the Iraqi people are, they always seem to be unable to escape the trickery of fate.
Hu Huizhong was once the "most beautiful and cheerful face" in the hearts of a generation, even if he was in the same frame as such great beauties as Maggie Cheung, Guan Zhilin, Sophie Maso, and Lin Fengjiao, he was never suppressed.
However, 62-year-old Hu Huizhong, the recent situation was exposed by the media, people found that in the selfie, although the former big beauty can open the big filter to beautify the face, as if the "happy face" is permanent, but under the media lens, it shows a haggard state, which is painful.
On May 4, 1958, Hu Huizhong was born in the village of Qi, with a fresh and unworldly appearance, tall and slender figure.
In 1978, when the 20-year-old Hu Huizhong was still in college, he was excavated by star scouts and made his first movie, "Happy Face": a girl dressed in white sang "Olive Tree", beautiful without staining a trace of dust, and people exclaimed: "Isn't this Kobayashi Qingxia?" ”

When filming the first play, Hu Huizhong said that he did not understand what acting was at all, and "Happy Face" was almost the true color of the performance: "I am ashamed, I am playing myself."
After that, Hu Huizhong successively starred in films such as "Love of Migratory Birds", "Summer Amorous Flowers", "I Sing And I Cry", "The Elf on the Swing", "Flowers in the Rain", "Earth Affection" and so on.
In just four or five years, Hu Huizhong, who debuted 5 years later than Lin Qingxia, quickly grew into a powerful competitor of Lin Qingxia, and the film remuneration once surpassed Lin Qingxia.
PS: It is worth mentioning that Hu Huizhong won the "Audience's Favorite Taiwan Actor Special Award" at the 11th Hundred Flowers Awards for "Happy Face", and was the first Taiwanese provincial actor to win the Hundred Flowers Award.
Hu Hui is soft and rigid, stubborn in personality, and even a little rebellious.
At that time, she was always compared with Lin Qingxia, so she replied: "You say that I am like Lin Qingxia, which is lifting me up." However, I am Hu Huizhong, and you say that I am like Lin Qingxia, which seems to underestimate me again."

After shooting too many literary and artistic romance films, 27-year-old Hu Huizhong felt that she should transform, so in 1985, she went to Xiangjiang to develop in Xiangjiang to seek a career breakthrough.
However, Hu Huizhong's luck is better than Lu Xiuling's, after joining Jiahe Company, she has filmed films such as "Fuxing Gaozhao" and "Summer Fuxing" directed by Hong Jinbao, and the role of "Overlord Flower" in the film has allowed her to successfully transform in one fell swoop.

Subsequently, Jackie Chan supervised the production of the movie "Overlord Flower" in 1988, and a heroic "Overlord Flower" squad made its debut in Hong Kong films.
Hu Huizhong, Wu Junru, Hui Yinghong, Chen Yalun, Bo Annie, Jian Huizhen, Li Mingshi, Chen Peishan... Who would have thought that there would be two shadow queens later?
And Feng Quanfan, Du Dewei, Lou Nanguang, Zhou Wenjian, Cheng Kui'an, Dong Biao, Xu Guanying are the "green leaves" for them.
It is also from this movie that the "Overlord Flower Universe" was formed: according to statistics, there are as many as 12 films with "Overlord Flower" in the name of the movie! Such as "Divine Courage Flying Tiger Overlord Flower", "92 Overlord Flower and Overlord Flower", "Rampage Overlord Flower" and so on.
Hu Huizhong starred in 6 of them, and in Hong Kong films, her name is almost synonymous with "Overlord Flower".
The success of the "Overlord Flower" series of movies has allowed Hu Huizhong's career to reach the peak again, and she has also successfully transformed from a delicate jade girl into an action star, becoming the "number one hit woman" alongside Yang Ziqiong.
In fact, Hu Huizhong does not have a dance foundation like Yang Ziqiong, she is completely with a tenacity, a little bit on the basis of zero hard training, how much suffering, how many injuries, the hardship in the middle can be imagined!

But Hu Huizhong's play does not make people feel like a play, on the contrary, it is still very handsome and neat, and has a look.
She is also very dedicated, does not like to use stand-ins at all, and almost always takes part in dangerous scenes - in 1989, at the age of 31, she had an accident while filming "Demon Hunters".
At that time, it was Hu Huizhong, Li Saifeng and Lu Liangwei, and the three leading actors made an appointment to jump down together on the third floor, but the pyrotechnics saw Lu Liangwei jumping, so he pressed the explosion switch and detonated the petrol bomb in advance.
Hu Huizhong and Li Saifeng were surrounded by fireballs in mid-air, the two actresses were seriously injured, Lu Liangwei was also injured, but Hu Huizhong was the most seriously injured.
According to reports, Hu Huizhong was directly blown down from the third floor, so that his whole body was burned, leaving clear scars on the back of his arms and hands.
Hu Huizhong recalled that the wrinkles on his face were burned out, and his hair, eyebrows and eyelashes were burned out.
Li Saifeng said that washing wounds every day was like torture, and as soon as she heard Hu Huizhong in the next ward shouting "wow wow", she knew that she was washing wounds again.
This injury made Hu Huizhong almost quit the film world, but she survived with strong willpower, and although she and Li Saifeng had burns on their faces, they did not leave scars.
In 1990, Hu Huizhong returned to the film industry. This year, she also traveled to Shanghai, starring in the crime action film "China Police Flower" produced by Shanghai Film Studio, and first appeared on CCTV Spring Festival Gala in 1992.
To interject: In 1990, 8-year-old Sun Li met her aunt for the first time in Shanghai - Hu Huizhong, who was filming in Shanghai, Sun Li's grandmother was Hu Huizhong's sister;
27 years later, the little girl of that year has become a sister on the screen, in 2017, Sun Li won the "Annual Excellent Quality Star" with "That Year the Flowers Bloomed and the Moon Was Round", and the organizer specially invited Hu Huizhong to present the award to Sun Li.
I have to say that this serious burn for Hu Huizhong ended her acting path early, and she began to plan a retreat for herself.
In 1994, she accepted the marriage proposal of her first love, Tang Reborn, and prepared to get married. This relationship, which has too many differences in identity and status, encountered the stick of Hu Huizhong's parents.
Hu Huizhong met Tang Reborn when he was 12 years old and developed into lovers in high school, but the two ignorant first love broke up because of their parents' opposition.
The 36-year-old Hu Huizhong is already a star in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and Tang Reborn has also become a gangster, saying: "I have always loved her and have never changed."
The news that the two continued the frontier came out, you can imagine how sensational, which was almost opposed by all the relatives around her, and the two broke up after a big fight.
In 1998, the 40-year-old Hu Huizhong married the official He Zhiping, and after the marriage, she announced that she would stop the film, and two years later, at the age of 42, she gave birth to a daughter, named He Ganxuan.
However, during Hu Huizhong's pregnancy, on May 27, 1999, Tang Huizhong, who had already converted from evil, was ambushed and killed, and Hu Huizhong cried bitterly when he heard the news, but did not appear at his farewell ceremony.
Originally, Hu Huizhong thought that he would go on like this, but unexpectedly, in 2019, her husband He Zhiping was suspected of corruption, and 61-year-old Hu Huizhong, in order not to let her husband be tortured, whispered and went around seeking help, and also wrote 149 pleading letters in his own handwriting.
Under her run, her husband He Zhiping was only sentenced to three years in prison and fined $400,000, in order to make up for the fine, she sold her house at a loss and took her daughter to live a frugal life.
In June 2020, He Zhiping was allowed to get out of prison early for "good behavior" in prison, and the family of three was finally reunited.
In August, the media bumped into Hu Huizhong eating with her husband and daughter in an ordinary restaurant, and she was particularly excited to eat fries dipped in ketchup, and for her, the family's peaceful meal at a table was already "happiness".
Hu Huizhong entered the industry because of "Happy Face", from 1978 to 1998, in the 20 years from the film, she went from the most popular jade star to the number one hit girl in Hong Kong films, and every step was very stable and steady.
And what makes people think about it is that Hu Huizhong's own fate actually fits the story of "Qi Ying", the heroine of "Huanyan".
"Qi Ying" in "Happy Face" experienced the unexpected death of her first love, the separation from her second lover, a person who worked hard to raise a child, and finally went through hardships and finally achieved happiness.
Remember the theme song of the same name as the film?
"The spring rain and autumn frost years are merciless, the sea is rotten and the stone is traceless, only your happy smile, accompany me in the long journey."
Hui Yinghong, who was with her as a "beating woman", is still active on the big screen, while Hu Huizhong has bid farewell to the film industry for 22 years, fading a starlight, and she said that she has "completely become a housewife".
It doesn't matter, her "happy face" and the era when "beating women" were prevalent and "kung fu films" were brilliant, and they were left on the big screen by film and shone brightly.
