"Most of the roles I can play with my eyes closed, and it's a waste to act with my eyes open."
Most people who see this sentence will feel that the people who said this are not too arrogant!
But this sentence is precisely from the mouth of Chen Chong, the queen of the Golden Rooster, according to her strength, she can have enough confidence to say such words.
Speaking of Chen Chong, I believe that everyone here is very familiar with her, she is the hottest actress in the 70s and 80s of the last century, with her good appearance and solid acting skills, she has become a goddess in the hearts of many Chinese people.
At the height of her popularity, she was also known as the "Four Golden Flowers" of the 1980s along with Liu Xiaoqing, Zhang Yu and Sichengova.
One of chen chong's most well-known roles, the pure and kind little flower she played in the movie "Little Flower", has become popular all over the country.
In addition, there is WanRong, played in "The Last Emperor", whose every move is so moving.
With this work, Chen Chong not only became the first Chinese actress to stand on the Oscar stage, but also became the first Chinese to be accepted as a member of the American Film Association and became a lifetime judge at the Oscars.
In a sense, Chen Chong is definitely a legendary woman, and her acting career and emotional career are not at all inferior to Liu Xiaoqing in the same period.
But in the spring evening of CCTV in 1981, Chen Chong was met with great controversy because of a sentence, and after the Spring Festival Gala, the director received countless report letters, and her reputation plummeted, which was resisted by many people, and some people regarded her as a "traitor".
At that time, the director of the Spring Festival Gala, Huang Yihe, also said that he did not want to live.
So, on the spring evening of CCTV that year, what kind of words did Liu Xiaoqing, as a guest, say that made the audience so angry? After becoming famous with "Little Flowers", what kind of life did she go through?
From the Golden Rooster Shadow Queen to the stripping star, today, let's walk into the legendary years of "Little Flower" Chen Chong.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">01</h1>
In 1961, Chen Chong was born in a medical family in Shanghai, his father was a medical doctor, his mother was a pharmacologist, his grandmother had studied in the United Kingdom, and Xu Zhimo and Lin Huiyin were friends, and his grandfather was also a professor, and his name can be seen in many medical masterpieces.
Born in such a medical family, it seems that she is destined to embark on the road of practicing medicine in the future, but Chen Chong has a stubbornness in her bones, which makes her embark on a life of art.
Chen Chong received a strict education from his parents since he was a child, learned piano and accordion, and his academic performance was among the best. After attending middle school, she was the best in the class, because of her lively and cheerful personality, she often came to prominence in theatrical performances.
Because his family has been abroad and his education is not low, Chen Chong can also speak fluent English.
When he was a child, Chen Chong was not like other girls, delicate, but like a tomboy, running east and west, and especially liked to play crazy.
When he was in school, Chen Chong's table was a small hooligan who was familiar for several miles, fighting and fighting, and doing no evil. He drew a three-eight line on Chen Chong's desk and warned her: If you don't want to be beaten, don't cross the line.
As a result, guess what, Chen Chong wanted to cross the line, grab the corner of the table, fight with the little hooligans, and said, he would not move. The little hooligan was instigated, scolded and grinned and retracted the belt, at this point, Chen Chong became the Liu Hulan in the heart of the classmates, like a goddess, wherever he went, he brought his own light.
In the second year of junior high school, the "Jinggangshan" crew came to their school to select small actors, and the little girl's mind was curious, and she signed up with the mentality of trying it out.
During the interview, Chen Chong gave full play to his outstanding English talent and recited a song "Serving the People" in english, which surprised four seats. After that, Chen Chong successfully got a role in the movie, and it was precisely because of this first electrocution that she became interested in acting.
After that, the god of luck once again took care of her. When director Xie Jin was casting for the movie "Youth", he took a fancy to Chen Chong at a glance and let her play the role of "dumb sister" in the movie.
This year, Chen Chong was only 15 years old, and the role she played had almost no lines, and relied on people's looks and body language to express the relationship between the characters. As a result, guess what, Chen Chong actually played the role of dumb sister very well with outstanding talent, which caused a sensation after the release. According to the current words, Chen Chong is a person who was born to eat and perform this bowl of rice.
After becoming famous, Chen Chong became a red person in the school, and many classmates would chirp and say when they saw her: Look, isn't that dumb sister Chen Chong! Many others deliberately ran to her class just to see her.
After all, Chen Chong is only fifteen years old, her face is very thin, because she can't stand the strange eyes of others, she often hides in the corner alone, afraid of being recognized by others.
In 1977, just as the college entrance examination was resumed, Chen Chong caught the last train and was admitted to Shanghai Overseas Chinese University with excellent results.
In the first year of college, 18-year-old Chen Chong received a movie called "Little Flower", in which he played a pure and cute little flower, played on the same stage with Tang Guoqiang, Liu Xiaoqing and others, and won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress in one fell swoop.
To what extent was Chen Chong angry at that time? It can be said that the streets and alleys are full of posters of her, and the limelight even overwhelms Liu Xiaoqing, who is the heroine. Even Liu Xiaoqing himself said: I don't want to take any tattered supporting roles, obviously I am the protagonist!

Just when she was on fire, Chen Chong made a surprising decision, that is, to study in the United States. At that time, it was popular to go abroad, and Chen Chong also felt that he should not be lost in the fame and fortune in front of him, but should rush forward and go abroad to study. So she bought a plane ticket and boarded a plane to the United States.
At this time, it immediately caused a huge controversy, many people said that Chen Chong was admiring and charming, and some people scolded her as a traitor. Chen Chong's grandmother explained to her: Our family Chen Chong is not a traitor, she will come back!
In a controversy, Chen Chongyi suddenly embarked on the road to the United States, but life in the United States is not so good, where Chen Chong lost the light of the film queen in China, in order to maintain her life and pay tuition, she had to go to the restaurant to serve dishes to others, and even to brush the toilet. This matter is also ridiculed as: Chen Chong can also brush the toilet in the United States to brush out pleasure!
After years of groping in the United States, Chen Chong finally succeeded in entering Hollywood and starred in a "Big Class". In this movie, there are many inappropriate content for children, and after this matter was transmitted back to China, everyone insulted her again, scolding her for losing her Chinese face!
But Chen Chong didn't care, she knew what she wanted. The following year, she starred in a film called "The Last Emperor", in which she played Empress Wanrong. There was also a very handsome man inside, that is, Zun Long. It is said that Zun Long liked Chen Chong very much, but for some reason, the two did not come together.
The wanrong played by Chen Chong in it is even more outstanding, and every smile is so moving. After the film was broadcast, it caused a huge response, and it also won 9 awards at the Oscar ceremony, and Chen Chong also became popular.
At that time, Chen Chong was present at the Oscars as a Chinese, and before that, no Chinese could do it, she was the first.
After that, she starred in works such as "Twin Peaks Town", "Heaven and Earth", "Seducing Monks", "Red Rose and White Rose", and impressed the audience with her superb acting skills.
An actor like Chen Chong, who has acting skills, thoughts, and looks beautiful, is undoubtedly the type of food that God chases after. The famous director once commented on her: Chen Chong is a girl who can act, even her voice, limbs, a finger, an eye, and an eyebrow can act.
Because of the blessing of her previous works, everyone forgot what she had done, until 1985, when a sentence once again made her the target of public criticism.

This year, CCTV Spring Festival Gala invited Chen Chong, after all, Chen Chong has just become popular with several works, and it is also the domestic Golden Rooster Award film queen, it is also reasonable to participate in the Spring Festival Gala.
Before taking the stage, Chen Chong said to Jiang Kun, let me give you a few words of new year's greetings, Jiang Kun said, no problem. After Chen Chong came to the stage, he saw her say with great interest:
"I lived in the United States for 4 years, I didn't plan to come back, but this year is the Year of the Ox, I belong to the ox, I did a calculation, according to your habit of Chinese, I tied a red belt again, and now there is a fashionable saying in China, called Wishing you prosperity."
It is this sentence "you Chinese", so that she has encountered a huge controversy, in the Spring Festival Gala, which belongs to the Chinese, Chen Chong actually used "you China" to describe, rather than "our country", as if you are an outsider, since you think you are a foreigner, then why do you want to come back to China?
So after the Spring Festival Gala aired, CCTV received thousands of complaint letters, all of which were accusing Chen Chong. CCTV was also forced to apologize on the show. This made huang Yihe, the director of the Spring Festival Gala, very broken, and he said in the show: I don't want to live.
Because of this incident, Chen Chong's fame plummeted, and she had to return to the United States in a gray and slippery way. There, she met a Chinese doctor named Peter, and the two quickly fell in love and got married. However, due to physical reasons, she was not pregnant for many years, and she always wanted a daughter, so she decided to come to China to adopt a child.
In 1998, Chen Chong successfully adopted a pair of lovely baby twins who they claimed they would give them the best life possible. However, the good times did not last long, and soon after, Chen Chong was found to be pregnant. At that time, Chen Chong vowed that he would not treat this pair of twin daughters badly because he had his own children, but was this really the case?
After the birth of Chen Chong's two daughters, many people found that the adopted twin baby girls had not appeared for a long time. After checking it out, I found out that Chen Chong had already transferred them to another New York couple, and their family conditions were also very good, which could give them a good life.
Such behavior has been greatly controversial, so why did they adopt them in the first place? It was a great harm to the two girls to pass them on to others as objects. In this regard, Chen Chong said that he did not have much energy to raise them, but the audience did not buy it.
And netizens found that Chen Chong has already changed his nationality to American nationality, and if he wants to become a U.S. citizen, he must make an oath, that is, "I will always be loyal to the United States." Because of these few things, Chen Chong completely fell off the altar, and until now, many people have insulted her.
Today, Chen Chong, who is 60 years old, has grown up and is very good. And she also continues to struggle in the acting career she loves. In the previous fire of "Manslaughter", we once again saw her superb acting skills.
And she is also very well maintained, a perfect witness to what is called graceful aging.
Chen Chong said, "I ruined their little flowers."
Despite the controversy in her body, although she is not understood, she still insists on being herself. Today, she has less "Chong" and more "Chen". She has experienced sharp pain, but also has the ultimate joy, passed through the age of uneasiness and anxiety, and she has more strength and calmness in her body.
When Lu Yu asked her: You are not worried about your age, she smiled and said: "Old is not terrible, what is terrible is decay, I believe it will not decay." “
