Zhong Huaishuang in the play is a shrewd and capable strong woman, she wears glasses every day, wears a suit, and wears a silk scarf, dressed exquisitely and competently.
In family life, Zhong Huaishuang is a strong single mother, because of the contradiction with her husband, she invisibly imposed her hatred for her husband on her son, did not allow her son to miss his father, did not like his son to meet with his father, and after a long time, there was also a deep gap between Zhong Huaishuang and his son.
Such behavior makes the character of Zhong Huaishuang have two sides. She has a high status in the field of medicine and is sought after and adored by her subordinates, but in family life, Zhong Huaishuang often feels powerless and sad.

Gong Ci'en's acting skills are still as good as ever, after all, she was once a TVB fan, starring in popular TV series such as "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang's Bat", "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", "Great Hong Kong", etc., with excellent acting skills, she became very popular in the 80s.
Unfortunately, on the road of feelings, Gong Ci'en knows people, falls in love with a scumbag, divorces twice, and even his career has become tepid, today we will talk about Gong Ci'en's life story.
Gong was born in Hong Kong in 1963 with a father who worked as an accountant and a television station worker, and she was the only daughter in the family.
Because she is an only daughter, her parents are both pampered and strict with her, on the one hand, they give Gong Ci'en the best material life, on the other hand, they do not allow her to go out to play, participate in school trips, etc., for fear that her daughter will learn badly or encounter bad things.
Under the strict discipline of her parents, Gong Ci'en grew into a well-behaved girl as scheduled. Graduating from school at the age of 18, he was hired as a secretary of a law firm, wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase every day, shuttling between office buildings.
After a long time, Gong Ci'en felt that such a life was a bit boring. During that time, the children's program "Banana Boat" was recruiting a host, and Gong Ci'en could sing and dance and play the piano, which was very in line with the requirements of the program team.
In order to change the status quo, Gong Ci'en quit her secretarial job and entered the TV station as a host, and then she applied for an artist training class and became an actress.
Gong Cien recalled: "Entering the show business circle was just a mistake, I graduated from high school and became a secretary in a law firm, but at that time, the sense of success and belonging was relatively small, but the satisfaction of being an actor was very immediate, which made me feel that I had gained something from my labor." ”
The 20-year-old Gong Ci'en has bright eyes and bright teeth, gentle and moving, his smile is as gentle as a spring breeze, and his appearance conditions are very outstanding, which is why Gong Ci'en was highly praised shortly after joining TVB.
In "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang's Bat", she starred as Hua Zhenzhen, a disciple of Hua Xianzi, whose eyes were bright as stars, clear and beautiful.
In "The Great Hong Kong", she starred as the heroine Shu Wei, who was loved by Chow Yun Fat and Kwan Li Jie at the same time, and the three of them began a love triangle that was constantly cut and messed up.
In the 1980s, Gong Ci'en successively starred in popular TV series such as "Xue Dingshan Zhengxi" and "Yang Jiajiang", and his career rose steadily, becoming one of TVB's little flower dans.
However, because Gong Ci'en's life experience is very thin, he has no outstanding talent in acting, and he is late in acting. She said: "At that time, I really couldn't act, I didn't know how to digest the script, the director told me to do what I wanted, and sometimes I didn't necessarily do what the director asked. ”
Beautiful but weak acting skills, such a feature makes Gong Ci'en is jokingly called "doll" by colleagues, implying decorations and vases.
For this nickname, Gong Ci'en's heart was very dissatisfied. In order to seek progress, in 1990, she left TVB to study acting at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts.
She said: "I really want to make a big breakthrough and progress in my acting skills. The most direct way is, of course, to continue to study, and when you learn more acting skills, you can use them freely in the role. ”
Kung Fu pays off, and through continuous learning and practice, Gong Ci'en's acting skills have become more and more agile.
In "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", Gong Ci'en played the two roles of "Cheng Lingsu" and "Ice and Snow". Cheng Lingsu is smart, lively and cute, while Bingxue'er is mature and stable, loving her husband wholeheartedly, two absolutely different characters, Gong Ci'en portrays them vividly and vividly.
"Snow Mountain Flying Fox" was immediately on fire as soon as it was broadcast, and Gong Cien's acting skills were also recognized by the audience. After that, she starred in popular TV series such as "Bao Qingtian", "Seven Heroes and Five Righteous Princess Escapes", "Snowflake Excalibur", "Journey to the West" (also known as Qi Tian Dasheng), and her career became better and better, becoming a costume goddess on the screen.
Gong Ci'en's career development has been smooth, but unfortunately, her emotional road is very bumpy.
In 1990, Gong Ci'en married the businessman Huo Zhenhua, but Huo Zhenhua was a prodigal son, and after less than 1 year of marriage, he cheated on Xiao San, which made Gong Ci'en sad, and the two soon divorced.
In 1991, when filming "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", Gong Cien met the actor Lin Wei, who was 5 years younger than himself. Newly divorced, she was empty and helpless inside, and Lin Wei, who was in the same crew, greeted her warmly and cared for her, which made Gong Ci'en feel very warm.
Over time, the two fell in love and became lovers. In order to follow lin Wei's steps, Gong Ci'en gave up his great future in Hong Kong and ran to Taiwan to live. In 1999, the two registered for marriage, and Gong Ci'en faded from the screen and became a housewife, single-mindedly taking care of her husband and children.
Unfortunately, Gong Cien's dedication to the family did not make Lin Wei understand, after marriage, the two often had friction because of small things, and the feelings of the husband and wife gradually faded.
Gong Ci'en admitted that after giving birth to a child, the focus of her life was on the child, and there was a certain neglect of her husband. "Because taking care of children is actually a very hard thing, they need more, when you take care of them wholeheartedly, you really don't have time to pay attention to other things, you will ignore other people and things, I believe many couples will have this problem"
Over time, the contradictions between their husband and wife have accumulated more and more, and in 2019, the two ended the relationship with divorce.
Nowadays, the single Gong Ci'en lives with her daughter, and occasionally she will come out to take over the drama, enjoy the joy of the family, work hard at the same time, have love in her heart, and live a sunny and beautiful life.
