There is such a question on the knowledge: which actors missed the role of a hit?
Among them, some people said with great regret that if Shi Ke had not missed Zhang Yimou's "Red Sorghum", there would be no Gong Li or anything.
Speaking of which, Shi Ke and Gong Li are both students of the 85th grade of Chinese opera, and the two run together in the same class, but the actor's road is clear from "Red Sorghum".
One debuted at the peak and became a well-known Gong Emperor at home and abroad; one has always been unsatisfactory, and his face is still unknown to no one.
Shi Ke, 56 years old in 2021, played Empress Wang in "Shangyang Fu", and his acting skills were recognized by the audience, but the flow was always less than Zhang Ziyi.
The drama red man is not popular, and he is talking about an actor like Shi Ke.
Looking at shi ke today, I found that she is the winner of life that most of us women can become: there is a passionate acting career, there is a "door-to-door son-in-law foreign husband" who supports her career infinitely, and two handsome and cute mixed-race children.
It is said that women's careers and families are ultimately difficult, in fact, this is not the case, as long as you meet the right person, willing to support you behind your back, women, you can also have a successful career, family happiness.
Miss the hottest characters
Shi Ke looks a bit like a mixed-race child, but she is an authentic Hubei native.
From an early age she was dissatisfied with her thick lips and always squinted. Unexpectedly, when I grew up, the parts I was most dissatisfied with became synonymous with sexiness, and I was always compared with Angelina Jolie.
After being admitted to the Chinese opera, she and Gong Li, Wu Yujuan, Chen Wei and Jin Lili were unanimously selected as the five golden flowers of the 85-level Chinese opera performance department.
Among the five golden flowers, Shi Ke was the most popular in the stage art department, and was often invited to be a model, and the teacher was very optimistic about this talented student.
In their sophomore year, Zhang Yimou got the copyright of Mo Yan's novel "Red Sorghum" and rushed to the Chinese opera to find the heroine.
Although Lao Mozi simplified the plot of the novel, he respected the original characters very much, so the heroine Jiu'er went to find it according to the "woman with fat breasts" in the original book.
It just so happened that Shi Ke's plump body shape and angular facial features were just in line with such an image, and he was recommended by the teacher to Zhang Yimou.
But the original agreed male protagonist Liu Xiaoning went to shoot other scenes, and the role of "Grandpa" was replaced by Jiang Wen.
Photographer Gu Changwei pondered repeatedly, always felt uncoordinated, he consulted with the old strategist: "Jiang Wen's small face is not worthy of Shi Ke." ”
It just so happened that Gong Li heard about this play and also came to fight for the opportunity.
In fact, Lao Mozi wanted Shi Ke to play Jiu'er, and afterwards he also argued with Gu Changwei: "You see, under this light, Shi Ke's impact is stronger!" ”
The two put Shi Ke and jiang Wen, Gong Li and Jiang Wen's heads together, and finally felt that Gong Li's face was more suitable for Jiang Wen's size.
So Zhang Yimou was full of regret and wrote a letter to Shi Ke, who had waited for two months to reply: "Our grandfather is Jiang Wen, Gong Li may be more compatible with him, and we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future." ”
In fact, at that time, if Shi Ke tried to fight for it, she might be able to get the role of Jiu'er. But she didn't, because she was also hesitating and making a choice.
At that time, Zhang Yimou was still a newborn calf, and director Yan Xueshu made the movie "Wild Mountain", which has won seven awards at the sixth Golden Rooster Awards and won the best film at the Montreal Film Festival.
Therefore, when he was preparing to make the movie "Killer Love", he received a large sponsorship of 4 million Hong Kong investors.
And the old strategist pulled east and west, only to pull less than 500,000 yuan of investment, he was even more for the sake of that sorghum land, ran from Beijing to plant sorghum in gaomi, and made himself gray.
Shi Ke feels that "Killer Love", which is filmed in a large production, has a better chance of becoming popular than the small-cost "Red Sorghum".
Therefore, she received a letter from Zhang Yimou, and without a trace of regret, she immediately joined the group "Killer Love".
It is a pity that Yan Xueshu, who is keen on literary and art films, made "Killer Love" neither like literary films nor commercial films, and did not have the appetite of the audience at all, wasting a huge amount of 4 million yuan, and did not receive praise and box office.
When Zhang Yimou and Gong Li won the award, Shi Ke realized that he had missed a good opportunity.
But is missing fault? Shi Ke never put such resentment on himself, but continued to go his own way. After all, it is impossible to shoot only one drama in a lifetime, nor can it rely on one drama to become popular for a lifetime.
The heroine of her own
Whether it is a missed opportunity or a lucky arrival, Shi Ke does not forget the teaching of the Chinese opera teacher to her: "Be a down-to-earth person and shoot the drama seriously." ”
When Shi Ke was in college, he photographed some "calendar girls" wearing swimsuits, but he did not expect to attract some roles that he did not like.
After the completion of "Killer Love", Shi Ke received an appointment from director Zhou Xiaowen's "The Last Madness", but because the role required full nudity, she gave up this opportunity, and her classmate Jin Lili became the heroine.
The same opportunity appeared in the movie "Widow's Village", and Shi Ke still gave up important roles because he refused to shoot nude shots.
A director said to her: "You don't shoot this, you don't shoot that, it's hard to be popular!" She said firmly: "Where it should not be exposed, I insist on not revealing it." I act because it's a source of youthful vitality, I don't worry about money, acting just makes my life quality. ”
Seeing that Gong Li and Jin Lili were out of the blue, Shi Ke was not discouraged, but filmed "Rock Youth" with Zhu Xun and Ma Ling.
After graduating from Chinese opera, she was assigned to the Central Experimental Drama Theatre, where she not only acted in dramas, but also filmed films and TELEVISION series.
In the late 1990s, a large number of foreign films poured into the Chinese market, and Chinese film production became less and less.
At this time, Shi Ke was almost all filming TV series. In the TV series "Addiction", which adapted Wang Shuo's masterpiece, she partnered with Wang Zhiwen and Jiang Shan and became a household star.
Han Liting, played by Shi Ke, was recognized on the street because she was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and fans chased three streets.
The moment of anticipation came, Shi Ke was finally on fire, and the invitations continued. Most actors will take advantage of the chase, but she has a principle to adhere to: scripts that do not conform to her values will never be accepted!
In 1996, because she had a different view from the director, she directly quit acting in "Divorced, Don't Come to Me Again", and was banned by the directors for two years.
As a result, her fame soon dimmed, but she didn't care at all, there was no suitable script, she went to act in a play, that is her favorite stage, but also can be performed until the old stage.
In addition to acting in dramas, she can also sing and dance dramas, so Shi Ke can naturally hold a fuller and more three-dimensional role.
It's gold, it's always shining.
Shi Ke finally won the favor of Chinese director Guo Xiaoqiu, starring as the heroine of "UFO in Her Eyes" and winning the Best Actress Award at the 2012 Romanian Film Festival.
In the past 24 years, Shi Ke has not won many awards, not much traffic, and naturally not many scandals, the only thing that is more is tranquility and growth.
Say goodbye to the wrong person and meet the right person
In addition to missing opportunities in his career, Shi Ke's feelings are also after trial and error to find the right person.
Shi Ke, who came from an acting background, actually loves music more, and even if he is admitted to the Chinese opera, it is also a yin and yang mistake, thinking that it is singing.
Although she joined the drama theater after graduation, she also mixed into the music circle and met Huang Xiaomao, who was popular with the red wolf and Cui Jian.
In the two years of being banned, Shi Ke wanted to change his career to music, and Huang Xiaomao gave her a lot of professional advice. The two got closer because of their common interests and hobbies, and soon married.
Unfortunately, the relationship didn't last long. After the comeback, Shi Ke, in order to shoot the drama, did not hesitate to give up the fetus that was pregnant early in the abdomen, which made Huang Xiaomao angry.
Huang Xiaomao is more traditional and hopes that the balance of another companion will be inclined to the family, but Shi Ke is too enterprising, because filming often does not go home. The two people who did not agree with each other soon divorced.
After the divorce, Huang Xiaomao married the host Li Jing and gave birth to a daughter.
After Shi Ke left Huang Xiaomao, he also broke off his musical dream and focused on acting. But with a spanking and divorce, her reputation at the Experimental Theatre plummeted and she was soon expelled.
The double blow of feelings and careers has plunged Shi Ke into a depressed state.
When the girlfriend saw her, she asked her to take a cruise to the Mediterranean Sea for a farewell trip.
In life, meeting the wrong person and doing the wrong thing is actually not terrible, the terrible thing is to lose the confidence to come back.
Love career double harvest
Perhaps by fate, on the cruise ship, Shi Ke met the right person, and the Swiss rich Man Ke fell in love with her at first sight and chased after her.
Lao Ke said that if he had not known Shi Ke, he would not have come to China.
This rich handsome man with assets of more than 100 million yuan, after his eyes touched Shi Ke, he did not move away, he could not help but say to the people around him: "That Chinese girl is so beautiful!" ”
The girlfriend on the side listened and jokingly asked him: "Really?" So do you want to marry her? ”
Curridge laughed too: "Why not? (Of course I would)"
The girlfriend immediately called Shi Ke and asked her to talk to him. After a few words of conversation, she made friends with the old man.
After getting off the cruise, Krize, who had fallen in love, chased him to the airport, followed him to China, and married a beautiful person 8 months later.
At first, the marriage was opposed by Shi Ke's parents, who feared that their daughter would suffer if she married far away.
Lao Ke comforted his parents that he would settle in China and promised not to let Shi Ke change his nationality, and Shi Jia's parents agreed.
Shi Ke, who married Lao Ke, was extremely happy, not only gave birth to two handsome mixed-race sons, but also was spoiled like a princess by her husband.
After marriage, Lao Ke did not renege on his word, in order to let his wife stay in China to shoot dramas, he gave up the career of a Swiss financier, came to China to develop, and took the initiative to take care of housework and carefully take care of his two sons.
In order to please his wife during the festival, he cooks Chinese food with his hands and noodles. Someone asked him: "Don't you feel ashamed to be a big boss who does housework all day?" ”
The foreign son-in-law had a question mark on his face: "Why? It's life! ”
Husbands and wives who understand life have a particularly happy life.
Shi Ke is filming outside, and Lao Ke will also take the children to visit the class, and will teach the children how to make their mothers happy.
Husband and wife quarrel, no matter who is right and who is wrong, the first to bow their heads is always Lao Ke.
For 20 years, whenever Shi Ke's birthday, Lao Ke had to confess on social platforms: "You have always been my most beautiful goddess." ”
If the husband is like this, why should the wife ask for it?
Now, Shi Ke's eldest son is 20 years old, and his younger son is 13 years old.
Although the two sons are 7 years apart, they are very friendly.
Although Shi Ke today is not famous, he lives a very happy life and is very "quiet and good".
There is a favorite career, there is a warm family, there is a husband who loves himself, there are excellent children, such a history, a proper winner in life.
Perhaps, this is a truly beautiful life, not sullen, but always warm.
We often envy the glory of others' lucky blessings, but forget that the ordinary is the fate of most people and the most real life.
When the god of luck closes the door, don't forget that fate always leaves us with a window. When there is no water in the world, as long as you really do what you are doing, you have your own way to go and find the most suitable state of life for you.
