Actors in the entertainment industry, it is not easy to become a popular big star, and it is even more difficult to achieve a red.
In 1993, "Laughing Forest Boy" turned out to be popular, and this movie attracted two people, namely Shi Xiaolong and Hao Shaowen, two children under the age of ten, who became famous early.
However, thirty years of Hedong, thirty years of Hexi, one is still playing the male lead on the big screen, and the other has been beaten into the ranks of child stars.
Why are the actors who have been begging for a living in the same crew so different?
There is a saying that is excellent, back against the tree to cool off, the same are child stars debut, different fathers, there will be different babies, as for where it is different, fine tasting.
Shi Xiaolong has three fathers, one is a relative, one is a dry one, and one is his master, and none of them are ordinary people.
Shi Xiaolong, whose real name is Chen Xiaolong, was born in 1988 and is now a 33-year-old youth.
Shi Xiaolong's father, Chen Tongshan, is now the CEO of 9 companies and is worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
In addition to this identity, Chen Tongshan is also one of the Ten Great Protectors of the Shaolin Temple.
Chen Tongshan, who has been learning martial arts since childhood, has been able to endure hardships since he was a child, so his parenting style is so cruel that he does not look like his father at all, which is unfortunate and fortunate for Shi Xiaolong.
Unfortunately, Shi Xiaolong's childhood was like biting Huang Lian, fortunately, first bitter and then sweet.
In 1990, Shi Xiaolong, who had just turned two years old, was sent by Chen Tongshan to the Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts, and to learn martial arts under Shi Yongxin, a successor in the 30s.
One day as a teacher, a lifelong father, the Shaolin Temple attaches great importance to the respect for the teacher, therefore, Chen Xiaolong's Dharma name is Shi Xiaolong, after entering the entertainment circle, the Legal name becomes a stage name, in order to show respect for Master Shi Yongxin.
Although Shi Yongxin's kung fu teaching Shi Xiaolong was also quite severe, in Chen Tongshan's eyes, it seemed to be particularly insufficient, so Chen Tongshan, who was himself proficient in martial arts, added a lot of small cooking stoves to his son, which made Shi Xiaolong miserable, and his mother cried out in pain, still unable to change Chen Tongshan's iron heart.
That unforgettable childhood experience once made Shi Xiaolong suspect that he was a child that Chen Tongshan had picked up from the garbage heap.
Not long after, Shi Yonghong of the Shaolin Temple took in an apprentice, he was four years older than Shi Xiaolong, but according to the generation, he had to call Shi Xiaolong a little master uncle.
Because of their similar ages, the relationship between the two people in private is more like a pair of brothers, and the personal relationship is very strong.
Many years later, Wang Baoqiang recalled the past and once lamented: "I grew up watching Uncle Xiaoshi's movies."
Just when the 2-year-old Shi Xiaolong was practicing hard at the Shaolin Temple, a small boy named Hao Shaowen was born in an ordinary family in Taipei.
Hao Shaowen, who was born in 1990, does not have the strong family background of Shi Xiaolong, and the reason why he can get involved in the film and television circle is only one thing, cute.
In 1993, the three-year-old Hao Shaowen was favored by advertisers because of his cute attitude, and he shot a juice advertisement, so he joined the ranks of child stars.
Unlike Hao Shaowen's luck, Shi Xiaolong entered the entertainment circle by strength.
In 1992, 4-year-old Shi Xiaolong participated in the Zhengzhou International Shaolin Temple Martial Arts Exhibition Competition, and with his superb martial arts, he overpowered the major competitors who were older than him, and won two awards in the junior group, namely Tong Arm Fist and Luo Han Stick.
Since the ancient heroes came out of the teenagers, the teenagers were strong and had many opportunities, and the performance of Shi Xiaolong on the field attracted the attention of Taiwanese director Zhu Yanping.
When Zhu Yanping found Chen Tongshan and said that he wanted Shi Xiaolong to go to Taiwan to make a movie, Chen Tongshan remembered a friend of his in Taiwan, he was a big man of the Bamboo Gang, nicknamed "Ghostly" Wu Dun.
Wu Dun has a wide network of contacts in the film and television circle, and his strength is strong, since his son Shi Xiaolong has the opportunity to get involved in the film and television circle, Chen Tongshan naturally wants to take his son to Wufu Bai Wharf.
Unexpectedly, Wu Dun was extremely fond of Shi Xiaolong when he first saw him, so he accepted him as a righteous son, and Chen Tongshan was overjoyed, because with Wu Dun's network resources, the future star path of his son Shi Xiaolong would be bright and brilliant.
In 1993, Zhu Yanping brought together hao shaowen and Shi Xiaolong, two small living treasures, to create the sensational "Laughing Forest Boy".
Hao Shaowen's humor and humor coupled with Shi Xiaolong's unexpected fist and foot kung fu have produced a wonderful chemical reaction, and the combination of meng mengda has circled a large number of fans after the 70s and 80s.
However, what many fans don't know is that when this movie was first made, Shi Xiaolong, who was only 6 years old, suffered a lot.
But all the actors who have filmed the scene know that the beating scene is the most arduous, especially the process of hanging Weiya, when Shi Xiaolong just hung Weiya, because he was too young, he was scared to cry, however, his father Chen Tongshan shouted below, saying that what boys have tears is not flicked, and those who cry their noses are not manly.
Director Zhu Yanping really couldn't look at it anymore, and turned to Chen Tongshan and said, "How old is he?" What a man. After that, he told the martial arts instructor to let him put Shi Xiaolong down and let him get used to it and then pull it up.
This movie, which slashed the box office by 1 billion yuan, will make Hao Shaowen and Shi Xiaolong two people, in one fell swoop, become popular child stars in the entertainment industry.
Lin Zhiying and Xu Ruoxuan also because of this movie, their careers quickly rose to the level of day in the sky.
In 1994, the two starred in the sequel to the movie "Laughing Forest Boy", "New Oolong Courtyard", and later collaborated on "China's Dragon Invincible Anti-Fighting Star".
In 1997, after the two partnered to participate in "Nezha vs. Monkey King", there was no longer cooperation, and this play became the last cooperation between the two.
So, why did the two young actors, who were originally like brothers, fly alone?
It turned out that the family had a difficult scripture to read.
Shi Xiaolong under the blessing of the "Three Fathers" network, took over a large number of film and television works, in those years, the mainland film and television drama market was in a hot period, Chen Tongshan gave Shi Xiaolong a lot of drama contracts.
Kung fu films such as "Young Bao Qingtian" and "Young Huang Feihong" have made Shi Xiaolong a representative of "young heroes", and the media has given him the title of "Jet Li's successor".
However, Shi Xiaolong, who was a teenager at that time, should have been the age of serious study on campus, but because filming took up a lot of time, even if he returned to school, he would attract a large number of fans because of his star status, and he could not continue his studies.
Overwhelmed, under the reminder of his mother, he gradually developed the idea of studying abroad.
For a long time, there were rumors about Chen Tongshan's son as a cash cow.
As a result, Shi Xiaolong did not want to be his father's human flesh cash machine, and the rumors of leaving abroad to study were once widely spread.
If Shi Xiaolong has a father who looks like a pit child, then Hao Shaowen's mother is not willing to show weakness.
Hao Shaowen's mother was addicted to gambling, and she was able to make money with her son, spending money like flowing water, so that Hao Shaowen, who was not yet an adult, carried tens of millions of gambling debts and successfully joined the ranks of the "pit army", in this "pit army", there was Zhang Shaohan's mother, Mao Xiaotong's father, Zhang Ruoyun's father...
There is no background, only a pit mother, the gradually grown Hao Shaowen faded the childish cuteness, the star path fell into a darkness, and gradually became a child star.
Perhaps because of bad luck, Hao Shaowen watched his former friend Shi Xiaolong return to China, the resources continued, still frequently playing the role of the big male protagonist, the psychological gap was not generally large, and gradually relaxed self-management, and his weight once soared to the point of no sight.
In 2011, a "Those Years, the Girl We Chased Together" was a national box office hit, and the audience focused on Chen Yanxi at the same time, the afterglow of the corner of the eye swept to a small supporting role that looked familiar, the chubby glasses man, that is, Hao Shaowen, if you do not carefully read the credits, I am afraid it is difficult to recognize the Buddha.
Although backed by the big resources of the "three fathers", Shi Xiaolong's life was not smooth sailing, because the love affair with supergirl He Jie was also connotated as a "scumbag" by the other party after breaking up.
In addition to the unhappy love scene, the workplace is also full of twists and turns, when Shi Xiaolong partnered with Zhen Zidan and others to star in "Ip Man 2", he was also ridiculed by the audience and pushed to the top position of "Top Ten Disabled Child Stars".
On April 16, 2019, Shi Xiaolong was once again pushed to the forefront by the media because of a news.
The unexplained death of a seven-year-old girl at the Xiaolong Martial Arts School caused an uproar in public opinion.
Chen Tongshan's ambitions at that time were quite large, and with the film remuneration earned by his son filming, the tentacles of the business involved in many fields, including catering, martial arts schools, film and television, hotels and so on.
Because the business plate is too big, there will inevitably be loopholes in management, so for Shi Xiaolong, in recent years, he has also done filming as a side business, and more energy is focused on helping his father take care of business.
Time is like flowing water, a pair of happy little living treasures in the past, and later became a difficult brother who was dragged down by the family.
The Shaolin boys, who flew alone, reunited again, and when they looked at each other, they still remembered the childhood time when they fought side by side, and the two also publicly expressed that they hoped to have the opportunity to shoot together.
However, this wish has not yet been realized, because the direction of efforts is different, and how easy is it to get what you want?
The friendship in the entertainment industry is not all as seamless and inseparable as Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan.
Hao Shaowen and Shi Xiaolong, a pair of living treasures that once embellished the memories of their youth in the 70s and 80s, their stories may make people reflect on fame and profit, sacrifice and gain.
Just like the question that Wang Baoqiang repeatedly asked in "Soldier Assault", how to live is meaningful? Does it make sense to live well?
