The "Wireless Artist Training Class" is known as the "Whampoa Military Academy of Performing Arts", which has trained a large number of performing arts talents and is the memory of the post-70s and post-80s.
Since its inception in 1971, the training course has been held once a year, but 1984 was very special, and two sessions were held in this year, known as the "Artist Refresher Course".
In the second session of the refresher course, it included Aaron Kwok, Deng Cuiwen, Shao Meiqi, Lai Meixian, Chen Tingwei and others, who later became well-known stars.
And Li Meixian, the peak of her debut, was later known as the "Wireless Five Beauty" with Zeng Huaqian, Chen Yulian, Maggie Cheung, and Qi Meizhen, which was once popular.
But no one expected that many years later, there were actually "three beauty" in the "five beauty" and Liang Chaowei had an emotional entanglement, which was really fate.
Among these five people, some people retired early, some people mainly attacked modern dramas, only Li Meixian left a large number of costume works, which was once known as "the first beauty of TVB costumes".
Li Meixian looks clean and pure, cute and delicate, and there is still a trace of melancholy hidden between her eyebrows, which is unforgettable.
But this big beautiful woman, with a thriving career, has been betrayed by men three times in a row emotionally, how is she doing now?
First, Li Meixian, who has wanted to be an actor since she was a child
Lai MeiXian's ancestors were Guangdong Gaoming people, and later in order to make a living, the family moved to Hong Kong for development, after two generations of accumulation, the family is very good.
Born in October 1966, Li Meixian has grown up smart, cute, sweet and delicate, and is the pistachio of the family.
Her parents had high hopes for her, and from an early age they nurtured her in the way of celebrities, letting her go to the best schools, wearing the most elegant clothes, and loving her very much.
Because of the good family conditions, Li Meixian has the conditions of chasing stars since she was a child, not only buying various magazines, but also collecting some cassettes and star peripherals.
After going to middle school, Li Meixian became more and more brilliant, and people around her often said: "You are so beautiful, why don't you act in movies?" ”
Slowly, Li Meixian also had the idea of becoming an actress, and often imitated the heroine in the movie, learning to look like a model.
In 1984, after graduating from Hong Kong's Sha Tin Pei Ying Secondary School, Lai Mei-hsien had no intention of further education, so she enrolled in TVB's Artists Refresher Course.
PS: This year, many old stars left the wireless because of salary problems, resulting in the situation that the TV station was "green and yellow", so they were very eager to find a successor.
Among the hundreds of applicants, Li Meixian and Deng Cuiwen and Shao Meiqi stood out and became the small flowers of the future.
At that time, Li Meixian was just 18 years old, tall, with peugeot features, clean and pure eyes, fresh and delicate temperament, and looked very healthy.
Li Meixian stayed in the training class for half a year, learned acting, lines, Chinese and Western dance, martial arts, makeup, hairstyles, etc., and then went light.
During this period, she also made a cameo appearance as a "girl thief" in "Seed Scheme" starring Ren Dahua and Zheng Yuling, although the role was not much, but it was full of spirit and was appreciated by wireless executives.
Subsequently, Wireless signed a five-year contract with Li Meixian and began to praise the little girl.
In the first half of the year, Li Meixian performed a drama while running a dragon set, leaving her own shadow in "The Mansion", "Great Hong Kong", "Happy Female Ghost", and "Xue Rengui's Crusade".
Although Li Meixian's initial resources were not as good as Deng Cuiwen's, a year later, she became the heroine of the TV series "Di Qing", and because of this, she became popular overnight, and her popularity began to rival Deng Cuiwen.
In "Di Qing", Li Meixian plays the "Princess of Shan Guo", and every smile is very attractive, especially the eyes, which are most appropriately described as "smiling and smiling, beautiful eyes and looking forward to it".
After a hit, Li Meixian still maintained a stable nature, did not manipulate right and wrong in the stage, did not make enemies with people, and won the title of "Miss Friendship".
Second, the love-hate entanglement between Li Meixian and Liang Chaowei
When Li Meixian is busy fighting for her career, Zeng Huaqian, who is also known as "TVB Wumei" with her, is busy falling in love with Liang Chaowei.
The two met in disco in 1982 and subsequently became lovers. In the same year, the two were admitted to the wireless artist training class together and began a heart-wrenching love affair of "three points and two combinations".
Zeng Huaqian was born into a family of medicine, and her father and two older brothers both graduated from the University of Glasgow in the United Kingdom, and both later became doctors.
Zeng Huaqian is the daughter of the family, coupled with her cute and delicate appearance, she has been pampered since she was a child, and it is not too much to describe it as "brutal and willful" in the early years.
After she and Liang Chaowei fell in love, they still maintained their previous personalities, and the two often quarreled and reconciled quickly, which can be regarded as "sadomasochism".
And Liang Chaowei is an insecure person, the more he is close to him, the more he is attached to each other, every time after breaking up, as long as Zeng Huaqian hooks a finger, he will obediently return to the other party's embrace, it is really "hate iron is not steel" .
However, when the two played the "love game", they let Li Meixian become "cannon fodder" and suffered ridicule and ridicule from fans.
In 1986, when Lai MeiXian and Leung Chao-wai were filming "The Dragon Slaughter in the Heavens", Leung Chao-wai and Tsang Wah-chi were having a second breakup, which was known to the whole of Hong Kong.
At that time, Liang Chaowei, while infatuated with Zeng Huaqian's embrace, was resentful of Zeng Huaqian's brutality and willfulness, and his heart was entangled, lonely, and sad, and he was eager to find a new joy immediately and completely forget Zeng Huaqian.
Just at this moment, the gentle and delicate, cute and charming Li Meixian appeared in front of Liang Chaowei, who seemed to have found a life-saving straw, and after filming "The Tale of the Dragon Slaughtering in the Heavens", he began to pursue.
After the love affair between the two was exposed, Li Meixian was immediately attacked by Zeng Huaqian's fans, who mocked her as a third party, and words such as "shameless, fox essence" also appeared endlessly.
There are also some excessive fans, mailing threatening letters and making threatening phone calls to Li Meixian, which is annoying.
Zeng Huaqian debuted 4 years before Li Meixian, and became popular because she starred in dramas such as "430 Shuttle", "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", "New Za Master Brother Sequel", "Yang Jiajun" and so on, and has a large number of loyal fans.
And Li Meixian has just debuted a year ago, except for a "Di Qing", there is nothing that can compete with Zeng Huaqian, and naturally become the target of everyone.
But Li Meixian did not care about the outside world's views, and publicly stated: "As long as he stands on my side, everything is not a problem, and I believe that rumors will be self-defeating." ”
Another reporter asked Li Meixian: "What do you think Wei Zai likes about you?" Li Meixian smiled and said, "Like me beautiful." Subsequently, Li Meixian added another sentence: "I am very gentle in front of him."
Unfortunately, Li Meixian was overconfident and underestimated Zeng Huaqian's position in Liang Chaowei's heart, and also underestimated Liang Chaowei's "masochistic" personality.
Although Liang Chaowei disclosed his love affair with Li Meixian, except for the needs of film and television dramas, he never publicly showed li Meixian, and he never took intimate photos in private.
Although the relationship between the two is quite ironic, the "Dragon Slayer in the Heavens" cooperated by the two is very popular, especially Zhao Min, played by Li Meixian, women's clothing and men's clothing are moving, more popular than "Di Qing".
Zhao Min, played by Li Meixian, is graceful, gentle and bright-eyed in appearance, and is also good and evil in temperament, domineering, like a girl with multiple personalities, with a unique temperament, beautiful and elegant.
In the hearts of the younger generation, I think that Zhao Min, played by Zhang Min and Li Zi, is the most beautiful, but in the hearts of some post-70s and post-80s, Zhao Min, played by Li Meixian, is "suitable for both men and women".
After the broadcast of "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon", Li Meixian's popularity soared, becoming another "TVB costume first beauty" after Huang Xingxiu.
Third, the enmity between Li Meixian and Zeng Huaqian
Then there was 1987's "Book of Swords and Enmity", in which Lai Meixian played Li Yuanzhi.
In the play, Li Meixian has both the cunning and cunning of the young daughter of the south and the frank atmosphere of the northern woman, and has won the hearts of fans.
In her career, Li Meixian is full of wind and water, but her relationship with Liang Chaowei has changed little by little.
In a certain issue of "Happy Tonight" in 1987, Liang Chaowei promoted the new record "Who Wants", and one of the songs "Love Change" was very popular.
The host asked him: "Is there any change in the situation?" Liang Chao was stunned and immediately said: "No change, no change." ”
Although he did not name names, everyone knew that the host was referring to Lai Mei Xian.
Soon after, Liang Chaowei partnered with Zeng Huaqian and Deng Cuiwen to shoot "New Brother Zha 1988", and after getting along day and night, the two rekindled their old feelings.
However, Liang Chaowei did not confess to Li Meixian, but only "sneaked" with Zeng Huaqian in private, and did not dare to disclose it to the public, nor did he dare to let Li Meixian know.
In 1988, Liang Chaowei once again partnered with Li Meixian to star in "Absolute Double Glory", in which Li Meixian played the pure-hearted, gentle and generous Tie Xin Lan, and then set off a rating climax.
During the filming, the two always maintained a certain distance in the crew, and Li Meixian always thought that "Wei Zai is for work".
After the filming of "Absolute Double Glory", Liang Chaowei continued to use "busy work" as an excuse not to call Li Meixian for several months, and no longer used the time to find Li Meixian.
And Li Meixian, still a Wei Zi is too busy at work, there is no time to contact him, has been waiting silently.
As everyone knows, everything has changed long ago.
At that time, some media reporters speculated that Liang Chaowei did not want to take responsibility for the "change of feelings", so he had been escaping from reality.
Sure enough, not long after, Liang Chaowei went to Singapore to promote the new drama, and the people who sent and picked up the plane were Zeng Huaqian, and the news that the two had been "reconciled for the second time" was published in the newspaper.
And Li Meixian, a stupid girl, did not know until she saw the newspaper that Liang Chaowei had changed her feelings, but she had been hiding it.
On the same day, coinciding with the press conference of Li Meixian's new play, reporters crowded in front of Li Meixian to interview, wanting to ask her opinion on Wei Zai's change of feelings.
Who expected, Li Meixian, who has always been calm and steady, said to the camera: "I hope he will never mention my name again in this life!" ”
However, some fans can't see Li Meixian's pain, but instead ridicule her as "Little Three", which is embarrassing.
After Zeng Huaqian and Liang Chaowei reconciled, they were asked: "Are you not afraid that Li Meixian will be hurt when you reconcile with Wei Zai?" ”
Zeng Huaqian replied expressionlessly: "I dragged on with Wei Zai for so long, but she inserted a bar, and I was hurt 10 times more than her!" ”
It can be seen from this sentence that Zeng Huaqian's personality has always remained at the stage of willfulness.
The emotional entanglement between her and Liang Chaowei is also self-inflicted, even if there is no Li Meixian, there will be Sister Liu, Sister Zhang, and Sister Dong.
It turns out that after she and Liang Chaowei reconciled, she only maintained the sweetness for more than half a year, and was dug into a corner by her good girlfriend Liu Jialing, and there was no chance of reconciliation after that.
Years later, Liang Chaowei recalled Li Meixian, saying that "she was too blindly obedient, too docile, and too obedient in love."
It turned out that Wei Zai didn't like obedient women, only small peppers like Zeng Huaqian. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is not love, will pick the nose and pick the eyes.
In 1989, when Zeng Huaqian was filming "Happy Mountain City", she fell in love with Chen Tingwei, a "classmate of the artist training class", and did not break up until 1993.
PS: Chen Tingwei played Shi Zhikang in "The Winner is King", and Played Shi Jiarong in "I Am Kind", a villain professional, handsome and evil, and a Hong Kong star in the memory of the post-80s.
Subsequently, Zeng Huaqian announced to the outside world that she would never find anyone in the circle to fall in love again, and in 1994 she met the wealthy businessman Lin Zhaoji, married and gave birth to a son, which ended in divorce in 2002.
PS: In 1991, Zeng Huaqian and Li Meixian also collaborated on "The Labyrinth of Destiny", and there were many opponents in the play, and they even fell in love with the same man, which is really ironic.
Fourth, Li Meixian, who has been betrayed repeatedly
After Li Meixian and Liang Chaowei broke up, they filmed "Southern Fist Cai Li Fo", "Metropolis", "Liancheng Tips", "I Am Kind" and so on, and the popularity remained high.
And around her, there are also countless suitors, all of whom are dashing and handsome, no worse than Liang Chaowei.
Among them, Wu Qihua is the most positive, the most attentive and gentle.
Before Li Meixian, Wu Qihua was a "master of the love field", and he had a brief relationship with Lan Jieying and He Meiting.
In the pursuit of girls, Wu Qihua has his own set of methods, nothing more than careful, attentive, pampered, considerate, trying.
As early as 1987, when Wu Qihua and Li Meixian collaborated on the "Book of Swords and Enmity", Wu Qihua had pursued Li Meixian, but at that time, Li Meixian was obsessed with Liang Chaowei and rejected Wu Qihua.
After Liang Chaowei left, Wu Qihua took advantage of the situation and continued to treat Li Meixian with his usual routine, and soon won the heart of the beauty.
When he was with Liang Chaowei, the other party was always lukewarm, but Wu Qihua was completely opposite, extremely pampered and gentle, so that Li Meixian mistakenly thought that "this is love".
Who expected, Wu Qihua is a "big heart", while falling in love with Li Meixian, while playing hot with Luo Yongxian and Jin Qiaoqiao, where there is a little bit of a dedicated appearance.
After Li Meixian was betrayed again, she quickly cut through the chaos and quickly left Wu Qihua.
In 1991, Li Meixian's contract with Wireless expired, and then she chose to leave Wireless and took over the role in Taiwan, Malaysia and other places, with a lot of freedom.
In 1992, Li Meixian partnered with Wu Zhenyu to shoot "Flying Eagle on the Earth", at this time Li Meixian was 26 years old, still delicate as a girl, and she was on fire again.
In this drama, Li Meixian plays two roles, and when she plays her sister Beauva, she is spicy and extreme, and she is fierce and terrifying;
When playing her sister Mercury, she is gentle and quiet, simple and kind; the two styles are different, which makes fans addicted.
During this period, Li Meixian also talked about a period of love with director Lai Jianguo.
The two met when filming "I Am Kind", and Li Meixian thought that "handsome guys will change their feelings", so they found a director with a general appearance.
Who expected, the directors have the convenience of bubble girls, and none of them are fuel-saving lamps.
The two had only been in a relationship for a year, and Li Meixian found that Lai Jianguo had "split her legs", and she was disappointed and lost confidence in men.
In order to find her inner sustenance, Lai Meixian began to believe in Christianity, and eventually became a devout Christian.
After 1996, Li Meixian began to live a semi-reclusive life, and only took over when she met the right role, otherwise she would rather rest at home.
Even during the semi-retirement period, the "Iron Evidence Tenderness" and "Walk with Me" starring her were highly rated, which showed that fans loved her.
In 1999, Li Meixian completely retired, no longer asked about the entertainment industry, and immersed herself in a secluded life.
Fortunately, God also felt sorry for this beautiful woman, and in 2005 arranged for a man named Xie Xingzhao to come to her side and take good care of her, which finally touched Li Meixian's heart.
Tse Hing Chiu was a wealthy businessman with many shops in his family, known as the "King of Yuen Long Shop", and had the same faith as Lai Mei Xian, and the two married under the witness of the priest and relatives and friends, which touched everyone.
After getting married, Lai Meixian took pleasure in taking care of her husband, and only occasionally spent time with her former sisters and lived leisurely.
Today, Li Meixian has been married to Xie Xingzhao for 16 years, although there are no children, but the two still raise eyebrows, respect each other, and live a stable and happy life.
A while ago, Chen Farong posted a group photo, most of them are female Hong Kong stars in the 80s and 90s, including Lai Meixian. She has a big smile in the photo and is doing well at first glance.
Having experienced full injuries, once full of flowers, time is rushing, beauty has also lived an ordinary life, and it is also a fortunate thing to leave fans missing her.
