There is no doubt that 2021 is Mei Ting's "year of domination":
Since July, after starring in the movie "Chinese Doctor", she has appeared in "The Journey of No Confusion" and "The Happy Life of the Police Officer".
On the 24th of this month, the movie "Flames on the Plains" starring Mei Ting, Zhou Dongyu and Liu Haoran will also be released.
Since her debut in the TV series "Bloody Children's Heart" at the age of 19, as the "first generation of chicks" who entered the "Beijing circle" earlier than Xu Jinglei, Mei Ting has been in the entertainment industry for 27 years.
During this period, she experienced various "dog blood" stories such as successfully obtaining Chinese drama, becoming famous as a teenager, dropping out of school for filming, marrying an unknown director at her peak, and being derailed.
But the magic is that no matter what happens, Mei Ting can always draw a "king bomb drama" after a period of silence:
For example, "Don't Talk to Strangers" in 2001, "Parental Love" in 2012...
How did all this happen? Just her face with dark circles forever?
During this time, Mei Ting frequently appeared on the hot search, and at first attended an event and made a shining appearance.
A few days ago, she also attracted wide attention for singing a song "Mohe Ballroom" with Yuan Hong - the 46-year-old is well-maintained, looking comfortable and stunning.
In fact, there has always been a great controversy about Mei Ting's appearance:
People who like her think that she belongs to the endurance type, and that she will become more popular the older she gets;
Those who don't like her think that Mei Ting looks bitter and has dark circles.
But in fact, Mei Ting when she was young was indeed not amazing, but she was quite recognizable, and her smile was very sweet, which could give people a feeling like a spring breeze.
Born in 1975 in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, she was a top student of literature and art since she was a child, and at the age of 7, she approached the Nanjing Little Red Flower Art Troupe to practice the basic skills of dance.
In 1987, 12-year-old Mei Ting was escorted into the famous Nanjing No. 1 Middle School as a dance student.
Six years later, she was admitted to the Military Arts Frontline Song and Dance Troupe, and successfully became a literary and artistic soldier after graduation.
In 1994, Mei Ting, who was originally working as a dancer in the frontline song and dance troupe of the Nanjing Military Region, was unexpectedly selected by the director Ye Daying, who came to select the heroine of the TV series "Bloody Child's Heart".
The other party is the grandson of the famous military expert Ye Ting, who has been doing screenwriting before, is good friends with Wang Shuo and others, and has previously created excellent scripts such as "Stubborn Lord" and "Half Sea water and half flame" with each other.
The first time Ye Daying saw Mei Ting, he felt that the role of "Young ChuChu" was none other than her.
After the TV series was broadcast, although the audience thought that the "Chuchu" played by Mei Ting was not as good as the "Xie Liaosha" played by Lu Yi, it could not be denied that Mei Ting did interpret the natural and true feelings of "Chu Chu" very well.
After "Bloody Child's Heart", Mei Ting felt for the first time what is "red" - because she also collaborated with Zhu Shimao on the spring evening sketch "The Great Change of Life".
It is said that after that, a steady stream of film contracts was sent to her unit at that time, but due to discipline, all the film contracts were rejected.
At this time, Mei Ting had already developed a strong interest in acting, so she applied for the Chinese Opera Acting Department without her parents' knowledge.
In order to be able to film, she also chose to retire, and finally successfully entered the Chinese opera acting department in 1996, and became classmates with Zhang Ziyi, Zeng Li, Hu Jing, Qin Hailu and so on.
It was also this year that "Bloody Child's Heart" made her win one of the performance awards in her life: the Beijing Film and Television Chunyan Award for Best Actress.
It is precisely because of this that Mei Ting is very grateful to Ye Daying, the "leader", and became a "year-old friend" with him, and the two subsequently cooperated in the movie "Red Lover", and the male protagonist is the "brother" Zhang Guorong, whose career is in the sky.
At that time, Mei Ting was already in the Chinese opera, and the school had the requirement that "you can't go out to pick up the drama before the third year".
Faced with the opportunity to cooperate again with international superstars and "Beijing circle directors", Mei Ting resolutely chose to quit Chinese drama and go to the set to shoot.
"Wow, Zhang Guorong sent you glasses."
Many years later, when Zhang Ziyi, who has become an "international chapter", participated in the interview of "Lu Yu You", he recalled a conversation with his classmate Mei Ting that year, and looked at her holding an eye sent by Zhang Guorong in her hand, and the look in her eyes was still envious.
Perhaps, what made Zhang Ziyi more envious at that time was that this "Red Lover" also let Mei Ting get two heavyweight film queens:
The Best Actress Award at the 22nd Cairo International Film Festival and the Outstanding Actress Award at the 5th China Film Huabiao Awards.
At this time, Mei Ting was only 22 years old.
People think that this 22-year-old girl will continue to work hard and come up with more big-budget film and television works - if Mei Ting had done this in the first place, it is expected that her achievements would definitely not be lower than Zhang Ziyi.
However, Mei Ting was once again a big surprise.
Because after filming "Red Lover", she did not come up with new works for a long time, but turned around and fell in love.
At the end of 2000, Mei Ting and "suren" Yan Po met at a friend party, it is said that the two fell in love at first sight, and after a month of acquaintance, they traveled to France together, and after three months together, they decided to get married.
Yan Po is 6 years older than Mei Ting, and previously studied fine arts, having studied art and design at the Sorbonne University in France and the French National Academy of Decorative Arts.
In 2000, when he met Mei Ting, he had just returned to China to work as an art editor.
The two chose to enter the palace of marriage the following year, and after two years of marriage, he followed Mei Ting to Beijing, rented a studio in 798, and later the two also opened 42 degrees of hot yoga together.
During this period, Mei Ting's "childhood shadow drama" "Don't Talk to Strangers" successfully came out of the circle, which also made her career reach a new high.
And Mei Ting, whose career is in the middle of the day, every time she talks about her husband Yan Po, Mei Ting is full of praise, with peach blossoms on her face:
"I think he is more reliable, I am a more emotional person, never want to analyze one by one carefully... In fact, the moment of marriage was very passionate and impulsive, and I met and felt that he was. ”
On the other hand, she always felt that her husband was very talented, so she always supported him as a director and made films.
The two came up with a movie together in 2005, "Aspirin", mei Ting is both the heroine and producer of the play, and it is said that all the investment is basically pulled by her.
Unexpectedly, during the filming of the movie, the investor suddenly withdrew his investment, and seeing that the project was about to die, Mei Ting took out all her savings to become an investor, and finally realized her husband's film dream.
However, in 2006, when "Aspirin" was released, Mei Ting's marriage with Yan Po came to an end.
There have been many opinions about the reasons for the divorce between the two:
Some people rumor that Yan Po "leaned" on Mei Ting and then no longer went up, and the income gap was too large;
Some people also say that the two have been separated for a long time, gathering less and leaving more;
And the most fierce rumor is that Yan Po is more flowery, loves to clubbing, and once cheated, the object is the actress Li Xiaoran...
Regarding all of the above, Mei Ting has never responded, and the two confirmed that they were divorced in 2007.
The scandal about Yan Po and Li Xiaoran has been inconclusive, until 2010, when he was cut by H Society because of her jealousy, and the truth was revealed to the world.
This year, Mei Ting filmed two plays "Wanli First Auxiliary Zhang Juzheng" and "Mobile Phone", although the response was mediocre, but the career development was quite stable.
In 2012, Li Xiaoran was still accompanying her boyfriend Yan Po through the most difficult recovery stage, and Mei Ting ushered in another highlight moment in her career.
This year, she starred in "Parental Love", and the capitalist miss Anjie, who was interpreted by her, was nominated for the best actress of the 20th Shanghai TV Festival, and later won the Feitian Award for Outstanding Actress.
Moreover, Mei Ting also participated in the film "Tuina" directed by Lou Ye in this year, and sparked with the photographer Zeng Jian during the filming process.
The other party graduated from the Department of Photography of North Film, and has cooperated with director Lou Ye many times, such as "Summer Palace", "Spring Breeze Drunken Night", "Floating City Mystery", etc., and has also won the Golden Horse Award for Best Editing and other honors.
The two patted and found that each other's feelings were very different, and then they quickly talked about love together, and even after they met, Mei Ting flashed marriage again.
In September of the following year, their daughter was born, but when she appeared in "Mama is Superman" with her daughter and son a few years later, people were surprised to find that she was a "black line mother".
Because she does almost nothing when it comes to taking care of children, and when it comes to this, she says a bit Versailly:
"If my aunt wasn't home, all the work would be my husband's, and I didn't do anything."
Then he smiled like an 18-year-old girl and asked, "I'm going to have a good life, huh?" ”
In the face of her second-married husband, Mei Ting did not say "I don't pick anything" as she did before, but said more steadily:
"He has a very good personality, is also serious and persistent about his work, has a strong sense of responsibility, and I am also touching the big luck ..."
In 2015, Mei Ting won the Feitian Award for Outstanding Actress with "Parental Love" and was nominated for the Best Actress at the Shanghai TV Festival, and then filmed a love urban drama "Evil Boss".
Then she stopped again and gave birth to a second child.
After that, Mei Ting turned variety shows and filming into two tracks, each of which walked steadily: she successively starred in the spy drama "Mask", the love drama "Eighteen-year-old give me a girl" and other dramas.
He will also appear on shows such as "Super Surprise" and "Kefan Listening", especially when he participated in "Sonic Immersion" in 2018, he appeared in front of everyone with a super superior posture, which is not at all the appearance of his 40s.
And just when many actresses of the same age as Mei Ting complained that there was "no chance", Mei Ting came up with so many works at once this year.
Moreover, it is worth noting that she currently has four dramas to be broadcast, namely: "The Daughter Who Came Back", "Beyond", "Zhang Weiguo's Summer" and "Eloping Grandmother".
Mei Ting in her impression, just like the things she has done, although vigorous, will never "open her teeth and dance claws".
If you want to get married, you feel that you have met the right person; no matter what the reason for the breakdown of your feelings, you have never said a bad word about the other party;
The role is always light and ordinary, not pursuing a Mary Sue, not refusing to play a 70-year-old mother...
I believe that it is this kind of "indisputable" that has exchanged many "king fried models" for Mei Ting.
Bless Mei Ting, I hope she has been working hard to live and shoot a good scene.
