In 1994, when the famous domestic director Shen Dong was shooting a new song MV for singer Su Hong at the Beijing Film Studio, he met a beautiful college student who came to the interview, looking very tall, graceful, and a face of collagen, which made Shen Dong lose his way and fall into reverie for a while.
Seeing that the beautiful woman was about to slip away from him, Shen Dao quickly asked the assistant next to him to come forward and inquire.
After some conversation, the assistant learned that the girl's name is Tang Jiali, her hometown is Hefei, Anhui Province, she just turned 18 this year, is a sophomore at the Beijing Dance Academy, and is a dance college student.
Director Shen looked at Tonga Limei's big eyes, her good figure, and suddenly became interested, so she took the initiative to ask her if she wanted to be a film and television actor and make a movie?
Tongari had come here to interview as an actor, and now that her luck was in the way, she was glad that this surprise had come too quickly. Then, she snorted and said, "Of course I want to, I originally came here to interview as an actor." ”
Shen Dao listened to this beautiful woman speak, his heart suddenly itched, he did not expect that Tong Jiali not only had a beautiful figure, but also spoke in such a good voice, it was almost as intoxicating as Lin Chiling's speech.
Shen Dao thought to himself, if he marries this sister home as a wife, wouldn't it be equivalent to marrying a Zhiling sister around? Subsequently, Shen Dao took the initiative to attack, and repeatedly used the excuse of filming as an excuse to ask Tong gari to come out to communicate.
In order to facilitate contact, Shen Dao also spent money to buy a latest BB machine for Tongari, and Tongari, who has always been very economical, did not sleep well after getting this fresh thing.
Subsequently, Shen Dao launched a crazy pursuit to Tongari, who was eager to let go, and Tongari could not resist Shen Dao's rhetoric, and after several discussions, he was defeated and took the initiative to throw himself into Shen Dao's arms.
For the sake of romance, the two use their own BB machines to set up love codes for each other, such as 777 represents I love you, 888 means I miss you, 666 represents that I want to see you immediately...
In this way, the pager became a link between hearts and minds, which solved the pain of lovesickness between the two and conveyed love between each other.
Tongari has Shen Dao as her boyfriend, and her heart is naturally a little proud in front of her classmates, and Tongali, who is in love, sometimes can't help but hum beautiful little songs.
She thought that climbing Shen Dao would become famous and realize her colorful dreams, but she did not know that her life still had many detours to go.

After Tang Jiali and Shen Dong fell in love, they thought that they had opened the door of starlight and would soon be crowned queen of the shadows, but reality was to give her a slap in the face, making her understand that success comes at a price.
At that time, Tongari was eager to succeed, because she knew that in the entertainment industry, fame must be early, especially if she is not a newcomer who is not a professional in acting, and she has to rely on herself to win the opportunity.
When her parents saved money and used money to help her learn dance, they hoped that she would one day be able to stand on a bigger stage and show herself.
And Tongari has also worked hard enough along the way, although her family conditions are average, she has well inherited her father's perseverance as a soldier.
At the age of nine, Tongari began to learn dance, and the dance teacher saw that she had a good physique and was talented in learning dance, so he suggested that her parents let her learn aerobic gymnastics.
After Tongari's parents went home to discuss, although the cost was a little high, they still gritted their teeth and sent her to the gymnastics training group of the provincial sports committee, and after several years of hard training, Tongari did achieve some excellent good results.
She has won gold medals at provincial games three times and has been voted "outstanding athlete" in the province. Suddenly, Tongari had unlimited scenery and became a small star in the province, and when she returned home, she was not only praised by relatives and friends, but also praised by her neighbors around her, and many people praised her for becoming a big star in the future.
Tongari listened a lot, her heart also drifted, she enjoyed the pursuit of her by the people around her, and she also longed for her future self to realize her dream of stardom.
To this end, she is bent on the art of dance, wanting to change her life by relying on dance, but also giving up her already very good cultural class results, determined to plunge into the entertainment circle and break out of the world.
Subsequently, she was admitted to the dance major of Anhui Provincial Art School, where after several years of tempering, Tongari mixed into the Anhui Provincial Song and Dance Troupe and became a dancer, relying on her beautiful dance and handsome image, Tongali stepped on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala in Anhui Province and became a leading dancer.
Ben wanted to spend her life like this, but her restless heart began to stir again. She wanted to go to Beijing and see the bigger world, so she applied for the Beijing Dance Academy and was successfully admitted, majoring in classical dance.
When she arrived in Beijing, the feeling was completely different, the prosperity of the metropolis and the drunken gold fans made her unable to sleep for a long time, and a greater desire gradually rose in her heart.
She wanted to be a film and television actress and a big star, but she ignored this bowl of rice in the entertainment industry, which was not as delicious as she thought

In 1997, after graduating from Tongari University, with his excellent performance into the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, boyfriend Shen Dong in order to praise her, also took her to the best Western restaurant in Beijing to eat a meal, wine and food, plus the big beauty around him, Shen Dong felt that he was the happiest man in the world that night.
Soon after, the two met with each other's parents and married in a low-key manner. After marriage, because they are busy with their careers, the two tentatively only enjoy the sweetness of marriage, do not consider the love of their children, and put aside the matter of having children, and then consider this matter after the career is stable.
Although Shen Dong was a little reluctant, in order to support his wife's dance career, he still chose to compromise. Tongari is indeed very valued in the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, and she has performed abroad on behalf of the Song and Dance Troupe many times, and staged many classic works, such as "Red Riding Hood", "Terracotta Warriors", "Rhythm of Youth" and other works, all from that period.
But after a toss, Tongari was not satisfied, her dream of being an actor has been churning in her heart, and finally in 1999, under the guidance of her husband Shen Dong, she waited for the opportunity.
This year, she participated in the movie "Dragon And Phoenix Wisdom Fighting Dragon Fang", in which she played Xiao Feng, a heroine with extraordinary skills, jealousy and hatred, and finally righteously destroyed the heroine who wandered the world.
Because she is a supporting role, Tongari has not stirred up much splash in the film and television circle.
The following year, she participated in the classic TV series "Kangxi Dynasty", in which she played a generation of famous prostitutes Ziyun, this role has high requirements for actors, and needs to interpret Ziyun's psychological change process from being pampered by Kangxi to facing the dilemma of loyalty and filial piety, and then taking poison to commit suicide to save Kangxi's heart, and it is Chen Daoming who plays with her, which is indeed a challenge for Tongali.
Unfortunately, Tonga Likong, who is not from the class, has a passion for blood, and there is not much breakthrough in performance, and Tongali, whose acting skills are mediocre, is still unknown and cannot turn over the waves.
To this end, she also went to the Beijing Film Academy for a period of time, but even so, she still could not find any sense of existence in some of the scenes she took on next.
Four
In 2001, the Internet began to emerge in China, a variety of Internet celebrities began to become popular on the Internet, although Tongari was also a little moved, but could not find any breakthrough point.
She consulted her husband Shen Dong, who was a director, and Shen Dong told her to be an actor to be calm, step by step, and run forward steadily. In fact, Shen Dong did indeed do this, most of the scenes he shot were about military themes, and Tongari was not interested in many of the scenes he shot.
But Tongaree did not listen to it at all, she wanted to be popular, wanted to be an actress like Liu Yifei, Cecilia Cheung, Lin Chiling, and later, she did do it, but the means were too heroic, and the sacrifice was too "wonderful".
This year, she met photographer Zhang Xulong during filming. At that time, Zhang Xulong was not simple, he was an excellent and well-known photographer in China, in 1999 just won the title of "Ten Jie" of the Third Chinese Photography Award, and was also named "World Chinese Artist", with the reputation of "Prince of Photography".
He will find the beauty of women very much, and the beautiful portraits he photographs make people look very feminine, and the reputation of the "prince of photography" is not a waste of time.
Zhang Xulong saw that Tongari's overall condition was very good, so he went up to talk to him and asked her if she was willing to shoot body art photography, Tongaree at first thought that this brother was playing a rogue, and later after in-depth introduction by her friends, Tongari relaxed her guard.
Zhang Xudong
Zhang Xulong threw out a great temptation and decided that Tongari would be on fire after shooting. Instead of letting Tongari make a decision on the spot, he gave her enough time to think.
After Tongari returned home, she did not dare to tell her husband, just a person silently fantasizing about her star dream, and then thinking about her situation in the film and television circle, in the end she still made a cruel heart and decided to take advantage of her youth to gamble.
So, she and Zhang Xulong signed a shooting agreement, the two began to invest in the shooting, every day the two of them in the same room, Tongari stripped of the essence, in front of Zhang Brother to do a variety of actions, sometimes the two will go to nature to shoot, the whole shooting process lasted for a year and a half, Brother Zhang used up 800 boxes of film, took thousands of art photography pictures, these photos consumed a lot of effort and energy of the two people.
However, in the end, the two completed this great feat, and it was because of Tongari's dedication that the dicks could enjoy such a wonderful picture. What is even more precious is that in the more than a year of time spent together, the two did not have a little crooked reverie for the sake of art, which is really admirable.
After the photos were washed out, Brother Zhang couldn't help but sigh with his own works: "It's so perfect!" Subsequently, Brother Zhang and Tongari selected more than 20 groups of photos and made a book called "Tongali Body Art Photo" and began to distribute it on the market.
It was this perfect set of Tongari photo albums that completely changed Tongari's life.
Five
In September 2002, Tongari's body art photo album was officially released, which contained Tongari's personal biography and an article she wrote herself, called "Beautiful Women Everywhere". Of course, these are not the essence, the essence part is the 144 Tongari art photos inside.
The first issue of this photo album only sold 10,000 copies, and it was sold out in less than two hours. She was the first domestic work to use a real-name model, and many people praised Tongari as the first person to eat crabs, which was 19 years ago, avant-garde and impressive.
After the publishing house saw the sales were gratifying, it began to work overtime overnight to continue to print, and Tongari became famous overnight with this set of photo albums, and only spent a few months to make hundreds of thousands of yuan. You must know that the hundreds of thousands at that time were worth more than the millions now.
Fame and fortune began to drift towards Tongari like snowflakes, and Tongari was also intoxicated and could not extricate herself. During that time, Tongari flew around in the sky, traveling to major cities to sign autographs for fans who liked her, and took photos.
Taking advantage of her popularity, the major directors in the film and television circle have also taken the initiative to find her to shoot dramas, and she has successively participated in some film and television dramas such as "Yangtze River Criminal Police", "Antique Prince", "The World is Too Busy", "Dancing Butterflies" and so on, in just a few years, she has a name and a profit.
She also truly realized her dream of stardom, and Liu Yifei, Cecilia Cheung, Lin Chiling and other beautiful women are not indistinguishable, even higher than their popularity. On the Internet hot search that year, Tongari was on the "Top Ten Beauty Storm" list, higher than lin Chiling and Cecilia Cheung's ranking, and the first place was Zhang Damei, who was even more ruthless than her.
Fame and fortune are there, but the upset things come.
First of all, the photographer Zhang Xulong sued her in court, the reason is also very simple, Zhang Brother did not get his due benefits, the lawsuit lasted for more than half a year, Tongari was exhausted, and finally Tongari lost the lawsuit and gave Zhang Brother 100,000 yuan in compensation.
Although the money is not much, but the impact on her is still very large, some people say that she unloaded and killed the donkey, do not know how to be grateful, after all, her fame is zhang brother single-handedly, and the two when they signed the shooting agreement, did not expect Tongari to be so hot, so in the distribution of benefits, the two did not explain in detail in the agreement.
The second is the ridicule and sarcasm of her colleagues, in their view, Tongari has always been the image of a well-behaved woman, and did not expect that under her quiet appearance, there is still such a wild heart. They envied her, they were jealous of her, but most of them were laughing at her, and during that time, no matter where Tongari went, there would always be someone behind her who muttered to her and talked about her.
However, for these, Tongari did not care at all, she was not afraid of the ridicule of others, nor was she afraid of their whispers, the road was chosen by herself, since she had already left, even if she knelt down, she would have to finish it.
In fact, compared to these two points, Tongari's real pain has just begun.
Six
After her husband Shen Dong learned about it, he did not directly think about divorce, and the marriage between the two lasted for six years after Tongari finished filming the photo album. But for marriage, there is a kind of torture called the cold war, or abandonment, which is more uncomfortable than divorce.
Although Old Brother Shen didn't say anything on his lips, Tong Jiali could obviously feel his difference, and this kind of difference could not be said to be what kind of feeling, like rain, like ice, cold, and both people were uncomfortable.
During that time, Tonga Liming and Li had both, she wanted to belong to the two of them children, but Brother Shen was a little reluctant, he did not want his children to come to the world to be ridiculed by others, in order to escape this torture, he did not enter the home for many years of filming outside, and slowly the two people also lost their feelings, and it did not take long to divorce.
In fact, in that era, a man's face was more important than anything else, and Brother Shen's dislike made Tong Jiali unbearable, and separation became inevitable.
Not only did her husband dislike her, but even her biological parents hated her.
After the release of the photo album, his father, who was far away in Anhui, went to a friend's house as a guest, and he liked to read the newspaper, and he saw that his daughter's name was published in the newspaper, which reported in detail about Tong jiali's photography.
At first, her father thought it was a girl with the same name and surname as his daughter, and also quipped to his friend that there were too many children with the same name now, but when he heard his friend tell him that it was his baby daughter, the old man immediately picked up the phone and called Tongari to inquire about the situation, and when he listened to Tongari's silence on the other end of the phone, Tang Jiali understood everything.
He angrily scolded his daughter with a friend on the phone: "You do this, so that your old man will not go out to meet people in the future?" yes...... Shame on you! Don't call me Dad again, I don't have a girlfriend like you..."
Tongari did not squeak, allowing her father to insult her over there, she thought that it would be over when his father was relieved, but she did not expect that her father had not forgiven her for what she had done for many years.
Years later, when Tongari talked about it, she still insisted that she did not regret her decision. She said that this is a memory of her youth, and when she is old, it is a beautiful thing to look back.
Tongari, now 46 years old, is still alone, and over the years, she has missed out on family affection and love, and also missed the great opportunity for women to give birth.
It is impossible to turn back the clock, and for women, careers are important, but having children is equally important. Don't say that you are for art, that is just an excuse for people's desire for fame and fortune.
There is always such a person in this world: he clearly says that he does not regret it, but in fact, he is more lost than anyone else.
