In 1990, the TV series "Longing" made Zhang Kaili famous overnight, becoming synonymous with virtuousness and being the immaculate "national daughter-in-law" in the hearts of the Chinese people.
However, at the time of popularity, Zhang Kaili resolutely gave up her career and died for love.
In real life, she is still like in the TV series, filial piety to the mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law under the same roof for more than 20 years without a red face.
The mother-in-law praised Zhang Kaili: "It is a model for a daughter-in-law." "What kind of magic does Zhang Kaili have that can get such a high degree of recognition from her mother-in-law?"
Born in September 1962 in an ordinary family in Changchun, Zhang Kaili grew up carefree under the care of her parents.
As a child, she loved to skate and dreamed of becoming an athlete, but she didn't know that she was going to shine in the acting world.
After graduating from high school, Zhang Kaili was admitted to the Jilin Provincial Art College with excellent results and began her artistic journey.
In school, Zhang Kaili studied seriously, achieved outstanding results, was the best in the school, and was successfully arranged to enter the Chinese Media Literary and Labor Troupe after graduation.
Zhang Kaili's career at the beginning was not smooth, and she could only start from the bottom, but she did not lose heart, but steadily improved her acting skills.
After several years of acting as a dragon set actor, Zhang Kaili finally ushered in her first role in her life, in "Eight Girls Throwing The River"
Played a people's teacher.
Although this is not an important role, it allows the director to see her strength and praise him for being very good at acting.
In 1990, Zhang Kaili played Liu Huifang, a woman from a good family, in the TV series "Longing", and has since become a hit.
Liu Huifang, played by Zhang Kaili, is gentle and virtuous, dressed simply, practical and capable, and is the "national daughter-in-law" in everyone's heart.
With the TV series "Longing", Zhang Kaili won the Best Actress Award of the "Golden Eagle Award" of Chinese Television in one fell swoop, and became popular all over the country.
Because Liu Huifang, played by Zhang Kaili, is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the audience regards her as a representative of virtuousness and kindness, and they have great respect for her when they meet her in daily life.
When taking the taxi, the driver chatted with her warmly and waived her fare; when taking the plane, the whole plane rushed to take pictures of her...
But fame brings a lot of pressure in addition to welfare. Some viewers have entered the drama too deeply, treating Zhang Kaili as Liu Huifang in the TV series, and even entrusting the children they cannot afford to raise to her.
Sometimes Zhang Kaili's family can bring six or seven children, and she has no experience in raising children, so she is busy taking care of her, and she can't sleep peacefully until late at night.
In the end, Zhang Kaili spent half a month contacting the parents of the children and giving them help, which sent the children away.
There are even many poor people who find Zhang Kaili and ask her to give her assistance, Zhang Kaili is only an actor, limited ability, unable to help, these people are behind her back to slander her, bringing her a lot of trouble.
After Zhang Kaili became popular, many directors found her and invited her to act, but she refused this rare opportunity, because she was in love at the time.
When she went to Shenzhen to shoot a movie, Zhang Kaili met her boyfriend Zhang Jianjian, who did not have a fire at that time, and Zhang Jianli was just a small writer.
When Zhang Kaili was filming in the crew, Zhang Jianjian happened to come to the crew to find friends, and Zhang Kaili was attracted to zhang Jianli at the first sight.
Although Zhang Jianjian's appearance is not particularly prominent, it just hit Zhang Kaili's heart and felt that he was very reliable.
Since then, Zhang Kaili often looks for Zhang Jianjian's friends to learn about Zhang Jianjian's news, and takes the initiative to talk when he comes to the crew.
After coming and going, Zhang Kaili and Zhang Jianquan became familiar with each other, and Zhang Kaili decided that Zhang Jianjian was a person worthy of trust for life, and Zhang Jianjian also had a good feeling for Zhang Kaili.
In order to meet zhang Kaili more, Zhang Jianquan runs to the crew from time to time.
Zhang Kaili was shy and embarrassed to open her mouth to show her heart, Zhang Jianjian took the initiative to confess, and the two people who were in love came together.
But Zhang Jianquan is from Guangdong, Zhang Kaili's career is in Beijing, and the distance between them is more than half of China, gathering less and leaving more.
Zhang Jianquan originally wanted to follow Zhang Kaili to Beijing to develop, but his network of contacts for many years was in Guangdong, which was tantamount to giving up years of efforts and starting from scratch.
Zhang Kaili could not bear that Zhang Jianjian's years of accumulation were in vain, so when she became popular, she took the initiative to give up her career, pushed out many scripts, and moved from Beijing to Shenzhen for development.
At that time, the network technology was not very developed, after coming to Shenzhen, Zhang Kaili's resources were very few, and there was almost no drama that could be performed.
This is a big blow to her who likes to act, and her mood is very low.
Zhang Jianjian is very grateful to Zhang Kaili for everything he has done for him, doubly good to her, and taking good care of her.
Zhang Jianjian never called Zhang Kaili's full name, but dotingly called her Bao, even if she had children later, she never changed.
Zhang Kaili is a sentimental person, watching TV series and seeing touching pictures always can't help but cry,
Zhang Jianjian understood her very well and had prepared tissues before she even started to cry.
In 1995, Zhang Jianquan took Zhang Kaili home to see her parents, and her parents were very supportive of their stay together, and the next year, the two held a wedding and became a sweet little couple.
In 1997, Zhang Kaili gave birth to the crystallization of the love between the two, and the birth of her daughter Zhang Keying added a lot of happy laughter to the family.
After the birth of her daughter, Zhang Kaili stopped taking over the drama, took care of her daughter at home, and became a housewife.
At that time, the family's conditions were not rich, Zhang Jianquan desperately made money to support the family, in order to win more orders, often drunk with customers, and even once alcoholism,
In order not to worry Zhang Kaili, Zhang Jianquan never showed a tired side in front of her and digested all the negative emotions on his own.
But the careful Zhang Kaili still found Zhang Jianjian's stubbornness, and after that, she often followed him to socialize, help him drink, and block alcohol.
Her daughter often cries in the middle of the night, and in order to let Zhang Jianquan sleep peacefully, Zhang Kaili often secretly carries her daughter to the guest room to sleep.
In order to reduce Zhang Kaili's burden, the couple decided to take Zhang Jianquan's mother to the house to help Zhang Kaili take care of the children.
Zhang Kaili's mother-in-law is an ordinary person, because she has watched the TV series played by Zhang Kaili, she often feels that she is out of reach and has great respect for her.
In daily life, the mother-in-law listens to Zhang Kaili's advice and regards her as the center of the family, afraid that something will make her dissatisfied.
Seeing that her mother-in-law was so restrained, Zhang Kaili told her mother-in-law: "Mother-in-law, I am just an ordinary person, and I will also do something bad, not as perfect as on TV, you should not be disappointed." ”
The mother-in-law agreed with her mouth, but she still couldn't change it all at once, and she still respected Zhang Kaili.
Zhang Kaili knew that if she wanted to let her mother-in-law relax, she should take it slowly, so she also began to care for her mother-in-law, buy her clothes and shoes, and give her pocket money.
The mother-in-law was unwilling to accept her pocket money, and Zhang Kaili stored all the money in the passbook as a small treasury for the mother-in-law.
The mother-in-law's relatives knew that she had a star daughter-in-law, and they came to visit and wanted to see Zhang Kaili.
Because of the fear of Zhang Kaili's abandonment, the mother-in-law did not let them live at home, but let them go outside to live.
After Zhang Kaili knew, she said to her mother-in-law: "We are all family, your relatives are equal to my relatives, how can we let them live outside?" ”
With Zhang Kaili's understanding, the mother-in-law took relatives home with confidence, and sometimes there were more people coming, and the living room in the corridor was full of people.
Slowly, the mother-in-law's attitude towards Zhang Kaili changed, and she was not so restrained at home.
Zhang Kaili said to her: "Mom, this is my home and your home, you can do whatever you want, don't worry." ”
The mother-in-law completely opened her heart to Zhang Kaili, got along with her and became a sister, helped her with her children, and did housework while talking and laughing.
When returning to her hometown to visit her relatives, her mother-in-law couldn't help but praise Zhang Kaili's goodness to her old sister: "I am really a good daughter-in-law, and you can see that my appearance is much better." ”
In 2006, when 6-year-old Zhang Keying reached the age of school, the pressure at home was finally alleviated, and Zhang Kaili, who was idle, once again remembered her long-abandoned career.
From a popular big star to an ordinary housewife, Zhang Kelly did not want to return to the camera all the time and pick up the script to act again.
However, at that time, she was 41 years old, Fanghua was no longer there, coupled with the fact that she had been in the shadows for many years, her fame had dissipated, and it was not an easy task to re-debut.
The mother-in-law and her husband saw her yearning for acting, encouraged her to bravely chase her dreams, and the mother-in-law took the initiative to take on the heavy responsibility of taking care of the family, so that she had no worries.
In order to facilitate Zhang Kaili's work, Zhang Jianquan and his mother-in-law unanimously decided to move their family to Beijing.
With the full support of her family, Zhang Kaili contacted her old friends, made a comeback, and was admitted to the National Academy of Drama of China.
In 2005, Zhang Kaili's career gradually entered the right track, her daughter Zhang Keying was also 8 years old, and her mother-in-law decided to return to her hometown to live and not disturb the life of Zhang Kaili's family.
But Zhang Kaili knew and resolutely prevented her from going back, she said: "You helped us raise our daughter, why did you pay so much, how can we let you go back alone, stay in Beijing, we will give you a pension." ”
With Zhang Kaili's words, the mother-in-law settled down in Beijing with confidence.
However, just when Zhang Kaili thought that her life was gradually becoming normal, her mother, who was far away in Changchun, suddenly suffered from uremia.
Upon learning of this news, Zhang Kaili immediately put down her work, rushed back to Changchun to check on her mother's condition, and took her back to Beijing for treatment.
The sudden illness of her mother made Zhang Kelly very worried, and she had no choice but to do anything about it, and her mother-in-law patiently enlightened her and made her relax her heart.
Zhang Kaili, who can't rest assured of her mother, stays in front of her mother's bed in the hospital all day, and her husband Zhang Jianquan is busy with work and rarely has time to take care of family affairs.
The mother-in-law automatically took on the heavy responsibility, in addition to taking care of her granddaughter, she would also make delicious meals every day and take them to the hospital for Zhang Kaili and her mother.
With the efforts of Zhang Kaili, the right kidney source was finally contacted, and the operation was successfully performed.
But before the mother's rejection passed, the accident came to the family again.
Zhang Kaili's mother-in-law had bone spurs on her legs and knees, and even her usual walking was painful, and Zhang Kaili hurriedly sent her mother-in-law to the hospital for treatment.
The mother-in-law fell ill, Zhang Kaili needed to take care of the two elderly people alone, but also to manage the life of her daughter, often busy without touching the ground,
Zhang Kaili's mother and mother-in-law are in different wards of the same hospital, and Zhang Kaili needs to run on both sides and take care of both sides, so as not to make them unhappy.
Zhang Jianquan saw that his wife was so tired, and he automatically shifted the focus of his work from Shenzhen to Beijing and returned home to help his wife.
Seeing that Zhang Kaili took meticulous care of her mother-in-law, Zhang Jianquan was very touched, she understood that Zhang Kaili had made great sacrifices for herself and was full of gratitude to her.
Under the care of Zhang Kaili and Zhang Jianquan, the two elderly people gradually recovered from their condition, and after being discharged from the hospital, Zhang Kaili took both elderly people to their homes for care.
The mother-in-law and her mother live under the same roof, but Zhang Kelly has never been partial to her mother, and the meals she eats are based on the tastes of the two, and the things she buys are the same.
In order to reassure her mother-in-law, Zhang Kaili spoke to her in a gentle tone even more gently than to her mother, and her mother was even jealous of it.
Zhang Kaili and her mother explained: "I am your own child, my mother-in-law and I are not related by blood, and I must be careful in my words and deeds." ”
After listening to Zhang Kaili's explanation, her mother's heart knot also opened.
People are more likely to be angry like children when they are old, and Zhang Kaili's mother-in-law and mother often lose their temper because of some small things.
Zhang Kaili gave them fruits to eat, they also had to be bigger than anyone, and even Zhang Kaili gave them meals in succession, often quarreling over these small things.
Zhang Kaili was very distressed, but still coaxed and persuaded on both sides, treated them equally, and tried to meet their needs.
With the efforts of Zhang Kaili, the two old men also gradually let go of their prejudices and lived together peacefully.
In order to strengthen her resistance, Zhang Kaili will soak her mother-in-law and mother's hot feet every day before they go to bed, and her daughter Zhang Keying will keep everything her mother does in mind, saying that she will also honor her mother in this way in the future.
In 2007, the mother-in-law and mother's condition completely recovered, and the two old people shouted to go back to their hometown to live, but Zhang Kaili knew that in fact, these two old people were reluctant to leave.
However, the two old people are older, and Zhang Kaili is busy filming and paying, and there is no way to take care of the two old people at the same time, only one can be left.
After thinking about it again, Zhang Kaili decided to send her mother back to Changchun and leave her mother-in-law at home to continue to take care of her.
Mom was a little angry when she heard this decision: "I am your mother." ”
Zhang Kaili patiently explained to her: "Mom, the conditions of my mother-in-law's hometown are not as good as yours, and she is older, so I chose to keep her." ”
My mother was also very considerate of Zhang Kaili, and packed up her things and went back to Changchun.
Zhang Kaili's actions made her mother-in-law very moved and more satisfied with her.
Although she is old, her mother-in-law still helps Zhang Kaili to do some housework within her ability, and she makes dumplings with Zhang Kaili every New Year's Festival, and the family is happy and harmonious.
When asked how her daughter-in-law Zhang Kaili was, her mother-in-law replied modestly: "She is a model among daughters-in-law." ”
For this high evaluation, Zhang Kaili responded: "Mainly my mother-in-law is good. ”
Happy family, Zhang Kaili's career has also ushered in the second spring.
In 2010, Zhang Kaili successfully returned to the public cause with the role of mother-in-law in "Naked Marriage Era", and became the classic "mother-in-law" in the hearts of the public.
Since then, he has successively starred in TV series such as "Let's Get Married", and in 2014, he participated in the variety show "Flowers and Teenagers", and won the love of the audience with many talents, and became popular all over the country.
However, at this time, Zhang Kaili has looked down on her career, and for her, nothing is more important than a happy family.
Now Zhang Kaili's daughter Zhang Keying has grown up and inherited a kind and gentle character from her mother.
On one show, Zhang Kaili once revealed on the show: "My daughter has not called my mother for 24 years. ”
This is not because the mother and daughter are estranged, but because they are intimate,
Zhang Keying called Zhang Kailimi since she was a child, so she developed a habit, and once Zhang Kaili asked her to change her mouth to call a mother, but it seemed very twisted, so she has not changed it.
Today, Zhang Kaili has lived under the same roof with her mother-in-law for more than 20 years, and the two have been living together peacefully and have never quarreled.
The most difficult relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the world has become a touching relationship in Zhang Kaili's body, and after the precipitation of time, the relationship between Zhang Kaili and her mother-in-law has become indestructible.
