Recently, the photo of You Xiaogang and his girlfriend has once again caused a hot discussion on social platforms. The two people in the photo, whether in appearance or age, are very different, making it difficult to believe that they are actually boyfriend and girlfriend, but giving people the illusion of being father and daughter.
Although you Xiaogang's film and television dramas "The Secret History of Xiaozhuang" and "The Secret History of the Crown Prince" have received good ratings, his emotional life is often criticized.
It seems that "empathy and other love" is the norm of his emotional life, the 30-year-old age gap, how does he win the heart of the beauty Zhou Tingyi? How are the two of them living today?
You Xiaogang was born in Nanjing in 1952 to a southbound cadre and a middle school principal to his mother. You Xiaogang grew up carefree from a young age under the influence of his parents.
In addition, You Xiaogang's grandfather also had a great influence on him. Grandpa was a scholar who had stayed abroad and had translated The Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection.
When he was a child, You Xiaogang was very naughty. In order not to let him go out to "run into trouble", Grandpa let him stay in his small bookstore.
Over time, You Xiaogang gradually fell in love with his grandfather's small bookstore, and even often traveled in the ocean of books. Since then, You Xiaogang's personality has also begun to change.
After graduating from junior high school, You Xiaogang went to northern Jiangsu to "cut in line". Because he was full of poetry and books when he was a child, his writing was very good, and he once became a rare "pen pole" in the team of zhiqing. Although that life was very difficult, You Xiaogang was able to make fun of it.
At the age of 19, You Xiaogang's outstanding writing was selected by the Anhui Chuzhou Cultural and Labor Troupe. When You Xiaogang conducted the political trial, the regimental commander also specially came forward to help him, which made You Xiaogang smoothly enter the literary troupe.
In fact, You Xiaogang has always dreamed of becoming a drama actor, but his image is not enough to give up. At first, the regimental commander's original intention in recruiting him into the regiment was to look at his excellent writing, and the heavy responsibility of the screenwriter in the regiment naturally fell on him.
However, You Xiaogang, who has been struggling behind the scenes, feels very depressed. The actors were dazzling on stage, while they were writing their own books in no-man's-put corners.
In addition, You Xiaogang also has to do various chores before the performance. After a period of silence, You Xiaogang ushered in a period of rising career.
In 1979, You Xiaogang's drama "Ye TingjunChang" won the Ministry of Culture Performance Award and Creation Award. You Xiaogang's fame has gradually risen as a result.
At this time, You Xiaogang was also transferred from the Chuzhou Cultural and Labor Troupe to work in the Air Politics Cultural and Labor Troupe. You Xiaogang puts most of his energy into his work.
In 1983, his director "Emergency Takeoff" won the Feitian Award, which also made director You Xiaogang famous and completely popular. The following year, You Xiaogang went to the Beijing Film Academy for further study.
During this period, You Xiaogang also directed several film and television works. Among them, his graduation work "Triumph in the Midnight" surprised many people.
After the end of the training, You Xiaogang met many industry leaders in Beijing. While he is developing his career, time is slowly passing.
Unconsciously, You Xiaogang stepped into the ranks of older youth. In 1984, You Xiaogang was transferred to the Beijing Television Art Center. At that time, You Xiaogang met his first wife here, Tian Ge.
You Xiaogang fell in love with Tian Ge at first sight. He successfully passed the convenience of "fellow countrymen" and slowly approached Tian Ge. Under the pursuit of You Xiaogang, they quickly opened a sweet love mode. After a year of falling in love, the two joined hands and entered the palace of marriage.
After marriage, You Xiaogang's career also gradually reached its peak. Those explosive film and television works "Air Hostess", "Frenzy", "Night Lang Style", and "Kyoto Chronicle" all have You Xiaogang participating.
At that time, his wife Tian Ge's career was also on the rise, and he was also awarded the title of "30 Years of Chinese TV Presenter".
In 1990, Tian Ge's program "Screen Connects Me and You" had high ratings, and even created the first domestic interview program.
Although You Xiaogang and his wife have developed well in their respective careers, the relationship between them has gradually drifted apart. Over the past 8 years, the two have often lived in a different place, without children, and it seems that work has become the whole of their lives.
At first, You Xiaogang often took care of his wife and accommodated her. In the face of a wife with a strong personality, possessiveness and a strong sense of dominance, You Xiaogang could not persist after all. In 1995, they ended the 10-year marriage.
In 1994, You Xiaogang met Wu Qianqian for filming "Kyoto Chronicle". At that time, his wife Tian Ge would often go to the set, and even reprimandEd You Xiaogang in front of the crew.
It can be seen from this that the marriage of You Xiaogang and Tian Ge has produced a huge contradiction. For You Xiaogang, who has a "big maleism", he prefers the gentle and considerate Wu Qianqian, and his dissatisfaction with his wife's behavior is gradually deepening.
Regarding the love affair between the three of them, there have been different theories in the outside world. Some people say that You Xiaogang divorced his wife before he was with Wu Qianqian; others say that Wu Qianqian was a "third party" who intervened in You Xiaogang's marriage.
In 1996, despite the rumors, You Xiaogang and Wu Qianqian finally entered the palace of marriage. After marriage, the two are even more like glue, and their love is very much.
In addition to being busy, You Xiaogang will not only carefully prepare surprises for Wu Qianqian, but even hand over the family financial power to Wu Qianqian.
In addition to pampering Wu Qianqian unscrupulously in life, You Xiaogang also constantly paved the way for her at work.
You Xiaogang's "Secret History of Xiaozhuang", "Secret History of the Crown Prince", "Secret History of Taizu", "Secret History of Kangxi" and other works, Wu Qianqian basically starred. With the help of You Xiaogang, Wu Qianqian also gained the support of many people.
However, just when Wu Qianqian was indulging in the double joy of marriage and career, You Xiaogang's eyes were already on others. When You Xiaogang was filming the "Secret History of Kangxi", his entire gaze stayed on Shi Xiaoqun's body.
In the promotional film of "The Secret History of Kangxi", everyone's attention to Wu Qianqian was turned to Shi Xiaoqun. You Xiaogang even specially held a birthday party for Shi Xiaoqun.
After that, Shi Xiaoqun became the protagonist of the film and television drama "White Lover's Dream", and Wu Qianqian, as You Xiaogang's wife, had no chance to become the protagonist.
To this end, there is a lot of news about You Xiaogang's negative news is constantly fermenting. In this regard, Wu Qianqian also came out to make a positive reply, and in the end, the battle ended in failure.
In 2010, You Xiaogang spent 6 million yuan to elect "Xi Shi", but he did not think that in the end, among the 6,000 candidates, it was his wife and niece Wu Jingjing who stood out. Since then, there have also been rumors of You Xiaogang and his niece Wu Jingjing.
At that time, there was also a less important supporting role in the play, Queen Fuchai, who was still played by a newcomer named Zhou Tingyi. However, it is such an inconspicuous role that has become the biggest threat to Wu Qianqian's married life.
In 2005, Zhou Tingyi graduated from the Communication University of China and worked as an entertainment program host on many television stations, but unfortunately he never made a big splash in his career.
To this end, she has also starred in several TV series, but the response has always been mediocre. It was not until 2010 that she participated in the audition of You Xiaogang's "The Secret History of Xi Shi" that her career gradually took off.
Although she only played a supporting role in "The Secret History of Xi Shi", the crew paid special attention to and cared for her when sending promotional press releases. In addition, director You Xiaogang often praises her acting skills, and often uses text messages to personally teach her the secrets of acting.
In 2012, the filming of "The Secret History of Xi Shi" has been completed and is in the post-publicity stage. At that time, Director You Xiaogang's leg was injured, and his wife Wu Qianqian also wrote a letter to tell him to take good care of his body.
However, only 3 months later, Wu Qianqian sent a message: "Fulfill you, bless me." And it is accompanied by a picture that means "separation".
Although Wu Qianqian did not say it explicitly, everyone could vaguely guess that there was a problem with her marriage with You Xiaogang. At this time, every dynamic of Zhou Tingyi is full of the sweetness of love alone, which is in stark contrast to Wu Qianqian.
Zhou Tingyi seemed to have taken Wu Qianqian's place in You Xiaogang's heart. Since the filming of "The Secret History of Xi Shi", Zhou Tingyi's film and television resources have simply been soft. Perhaps because of You Xiaogang, she became an actress who was invited by directors in the Beijing circle.
After 2010, you Xiaogang's film and television works are gradually decreasing. In any case, as long as it is the film and television drama he directed, Zhou Tingyi basically has starred, such as "8090 Rush Forward", "Qianlong Secret History", "Anti-terrorism Special Team" and so on.
In 2015, when "Counter-Terrorism Special Combat Team" was in the publicity stage, Zhou Tingyi also exposed the troubles of director You Xiaogang when he was young. The two talked and laughed very happily, and the relationship was extraordinary.
During the relationship between the two of them, You Xiaogang did not hide it, but generously admitted that Zhou Tingyi was his current girlfriend, and he and Wu Qianqian divorced as early as 3 years ago.
Everyone looked at her girlfriend who was more than 30 years apart from her, which was really shocking, although this love across the age had also been questioned by everyone, but it did not affect the feelings between them in the slightest.
Today, the two of them have been together for 6 years, but they have always maintained the relationship of boyfriend and girlfriend, and there has been no news of marriage and children.
You Xiaogang and Zhou Tingyi wore rings on their ring fingers when they attended the event, but whether this is a wedding ring or not is unknown.
Now 69-year-old You Xiaogang's body is also gradually aging, and old age spots have grown on his face, while his 38-year-old girlfriend Zhou Tingyi is still beautiful and moving.
And You Xiaogang's two ex-wives are now also very happy. Tian Ge put down his job and began to enjoy his retirement life with peace of mind. Wu Qianqian did not remarry, and she lived very comfortably alone.
We can't deny that director You Xiaogang's work is indeed very amazing, and it is a rare talent, perhaps he is too successful in his career, and everyone will be as strict as his married life requirements.
Feelings are elusive, and we don't have to be too harsh. What the emotional life of You Xiaogang and Zhou Tingyi is, perhaps only their parties themselves know.
Maybe they're just superficially harmonious, but it could also be true love like glue. In any case, we all hope that director You Xiaogang can bring you more and better film and television works.
