Talking about Xi Meijuan, many people may think of the iconic mole on her forehead.
She has played the role of mother after mother,
It was once evaluated by the audience as a "national mother".
Also in life, Xi Meijuan's identity is still a "mother",
She was ruthlessly abandoned by her ex-husband and raised her son alone for 27 years.
Still a person.
She always brings the audience a motherly smile,
But her life was bumpy.
No one can understand how she has come all these years...
Once she calmly faced the divorce agreement handed over by her husband,
There is no retention, no bitter pleading,
Just said lightly:
"A person cannot live with a person who has no feelings, although he may not be a bad person."
Today's cases of infidelity and divorce are innumerable,
Also as a divorced woman Xi Meijuan,
Her sobriety is worth learning from everyone.
01
Xi Meijuan was born in 1955 to a poor family in Shanghai.
My parents were ordinary workers in a factory.
Although there are five children in the family, they can barely cope with food and clothing by relying on their parents' salaries.
Xi Meijuan is the eldest in the family,
So she took on the responsibility of taking care of her younger siblings on weekdays.
Not only that, but she also often helps the family,
Although she doesn't like to be the boss.
However, Xi Meijuan's personality is still quite well-behaved, which also makes her parents worry a lot less.
Later, my father was transferred to a film factory to specialize in the development of film projectors.
Stained with my father's light, at that time the family would always bring a projector to watch movies at home,
At that time, this was Xi Meijuan's greatest happiness.
Every time she plays a movie, she will sit in front of the projector and watch it.
She fantasized that one day she could also appear on the big screen,
She quietly planted a literary dream in her heart.
After graduating from junior high school, Xi Meijuan was arranged to participate in the queue in the suburbs.
But she did not give up her dream of becoming an actress.
Not long after she arrived, she received a notice from the Shanghai Theater Academy to prepare for enrollment.
She was still speaking her hometown dialect.
The opera and drama in Shanghainese sound very similar,
So she stumbled in front of the examiners,
Maybe at that time, if you knew that you were going to take the drama exam,
She wouldn't have followed.
What made her most flustered was that before this, she had not seen a play once.
She didn't know how the exam would affect her future.
She thought she couldn't pass the test, she didn't have a remarkable appearance,
Solid basic skills, it is certainly not so easy to pass the exam in such a large school.
But I don't know if Xi Meijuan is lucky,
At that time, the national college entrance examination had not yet fully recovered,
There is no need for any cultural achievements at all.
The external image is also not something that the examiners care about.
In this way, Xi Meijuan mistakenly passed the four rounds of examinations of Chinese opera,
Successfully admitted to the Central Academy of Drama.
At that time, Xi Meijuan could be said to know nothing about acting.
Her perception of acting is still stuck in the silent films screened by her father...
However, she still chose to go to Chinese opera to study,
Maybe it's a good way out for her, too.
Xi Meijuan, who has just entered the Chinese opera, felt a huge pressure in an instant.
She had never seen anything in the world, and her appearance was not outstanding,
There is no talent,
Compared with her classmates, she was simply ordinary.
But she knew she couldn't give up, and since she was here, she had to redouble her efforts.
At that time, Xi Meijuan soaked in the practice room almost every day.
She carefully studied the textbook and learned the skills of acting.
If you don't understand anything, ask the teacher for the first time,
The teacher saw that Xi Meijuan loved to learn so much, so he often gave her make-up lessons in the world after class.
Teach her some acting skills and enlighten her often.
Through her own efforts, Xi Meijuan's achievements are also getting better and better,
From an inconspicuous student to the top few of the school,
Along with her outstanding achievements is also her classmate ------- Pan Hong.
But unlike Xi Meijuan,
At that time, Pan Hong looked very beautiful,
At a young age, she was favored by many directors and invited her to act.
She even became the female number one in many movies with her good looks.
Although the results are very good,
But some innate conditions are that there is no way to compare.
Even in the top of the school,
But Xi Meijuan still did not receive an invitation from a director.
She had to grind her acting skills in drama alone.
In the long four years of college, Xi Meijuan did not shoot a single scene.
After graduation, she was transferred to the school to work in the Renyi Words Theater.
Maybe this is where she comes from...
02
Fortunately, Xi Meijuan met a good teacher here,
Huang Zuolin, who was also the director of the theater at that time-------.
Xi Meijuan, who had just entered the drama theater, was immediately appreciated by Huang Zuolin.
Slowly, he changed from a small role on the stage to a heroine,
There is absolutely no shortage of Huang Zuolin's promotion,
In his eyes, Xi Meijuan is definitely an indispensable talent among drama actors.
In the days of the drama theater, countless stage experiences allowed him to gain a lot of experience,
Here he also met Zhou Yemang, who is also a drama actor.
Although also born in Shanghai, he is also an actor in a drama troupe.
Zhou Ye mang did not have such luck as hers.
Since childhood, he loved acting, forced by the pressure of life, to be arranged by his father to enter the factory as a worker.
Once a life of two points and one line made him feel desperate and helpless,
He loves acting, more like appearing on the big screen,
He could no longer bear the feeling of turning his back on his ideals,
Hiding from everyone in the family, Zhou Yemang secretly applied for the play himself,
I came to Shanghai alone to study.
Five years after Xi Meijuan came to the repertory theatre, Zhou Yemang had just graduated from school.
In this way, after graduation, the two of them met in the drama troupe.
Zhou Yemang was assigned to the Human Arts Department and became Xi Meijuan's apprentice.
Although the two have a difference of five years of work experience,
But in fact, the age difference between the two is only one year.
Just arrived at the Ministry of Literature and Art, Zhou Ye mang fell in love with Xi Meijuan, who was shining on the stage, at first sight.
And vowed to pursue this girl.
The two have a common topic, and usually when they leave work, the two will also exchange acting skills together.
After a long time, the two of them slowly came together,
Confirmed the relationship in love.
During that time, Zhou Ye mang felt that life was very happy,
He is also very good to Xi Meijuan,
As long as she said East, he definitely did not dare to say West.
After a few years of love, the two began to discuss marriage.
At this time, Xi Meijuan was 30 years old,
It just so happens that both of them grew up in a city,
This "sister-brother love" has finally come to fruition,
In this way, this happy little couple entered the palace of marriage.
After marriage, the career of the two has also ushered in a turnaround,
In 1988, the dean prepared to prepare a drama film "The Chinese Dream".
I invited the "golden boy and jade girl" in the theater,
Hearing this news, the couple is also very happy,
I am also more motivated in my work.
In the end, the two of them did not disappoint the dean.
Not only has it gained high popularity at the box office,
She also let Xi Meijuan, as the heroine, cut off the "Plum Blossom Award" in one fell swoop, and her fame and fortune were both gained.
03
In this way, Xi Meijuan's popularity is also getting higher and higher,
After watching her performance, the directors invited Xi Meijuan to shoot the scene,
After working so hard for so long, I finally saw the light.
Xi Meijuan's favorites also include director Wu Zhennian,
He invited Xi Meijuan to star in his new movie "Fake Girl True Feelings",
In it, she played the female number one "Wang Yujuan".
The film was shot very smoothly,
Xi Meijuan also began to develop into the road of film,
No longer limited to the stage of drama,
Her acting skills were strongly recognized by the director and the audience.
Husband Zhou Yemang's career also began to flourish,
In the troupe, he often plays the male lead, and his performance is very good.
What makes the couple even happier is that shortly after the film was made,
Xi Meijuan was pregnant with the crystallization of their love,
She thought it was a gift from Heaven to them.
I thought that I would live a happy life for a family of three from now on,
Unexpectedly, after a while, an accident happened,
The child in Xi Meijuan's belly was unexpectedly miscarried.
This plunged the couple into grief for a time.
After losing her child, Xi Meijuan often sat alone on the sofa in a daze,
Her mood husband can not understand,
He is still as committed to his work as ever,
Use busyness to relieve the pain of losing a child in your heart.
During that time, Xi Meijuan was often in a trance, which made Zhou Yemang very worried.
In 1990, there was finally a piece of good news that could get them out of their grief.
Xi Meijuan won the award for best actress for the movie "False Girl True Feelings".
The first step of the work can get such a high achievement,
This is also very rare today.
Although this is a fortunate thing, for her, she can't fall like this.
She began to adjust her emotions,
Get yourself back into work.
During that time, she took every role seriously and treated her work positively.
In her heart, there was also a new desire,
She hopes to have another child with her husband, after all, she is not young.
But the husband doesn't seem to have any thoughts, and he is now preoccupied with his career.
In 1996, Zhou Yemang starred in the role of "Lin Chong" in "Water Margin".
When the "Water Margin" was released, it was simply very hot,
At the same time, Zhou Yemang also has a certain popularity with the broadcast of the TV series,
He finally established himself in show business.
By this time, both husband and wife had reached the peak of their careers.
39-year-old Xi Meijuan finally conceived her second child,
But for her age now,
Basically, it is already an advanced maternal age, not to mention that there has been a miscarriage experience before,
She also paid extra attention to this child.
In order to raise a baby with peace of mind, Xi Meijuan decided to quit the show business circle.
10 months later, the couple's first child was born,
But the birth of the child did not make the family happier.
The child was just a month after birth, and her husband Zhou Yemang actually filed a divorce with Xi Meijuan.
At this time, she was still confinement.
Without any warning, perhaps the husband has already transferred his affection and not fallen in love,
It may also be that Xi Meijuan alienated her husband early because of her children,
In the end, the home was broken.
Ten years of marriage is fleeting,
Xi Meijuan could not accept that her child would face a childhood without a father as soon as she was born.
04
The two went through divorce procedures, and the husband did not compete for custody of the children.
The son followed his mother's surname and took the name Xi Nan.
Zhou Yemang came together with Wang Zhixia, who was also an actor, not long after the divorce.
And their age difference is exactly seven years.
In the face of everything that suddenly happened, Xi Meijuan could only face it alone.
She did not choose to remarry, but raised the child alone,
While taking care of the newborn child,
On the one hand, I have to think of ways to make money,
After much hesitation, in 1998 Xi Meijuan decided to make a comeback and return to the big screen.
But now she has long missed a good time,
At the height of her career, she chose to return to her family.
At that time, Xi Meijuan was 43 years old, and most of the roles she got were playing her mother.
And she has the deepest understanding.
Because she had not acted for too long, Xi Meijuan once fell into anxiety.
But fortunately, she has a son as her support,
Only then can she rekindle her fighting spirit.
Before Xi Meijuan's acting skills were also very recognized by various producers,
So leave the role to her directors with confidence.
Xi Meijuan naturally can't live up to their trust,
In addition to the time spent caring for the child,
She spends most of her time working on the script and the characters, taking it seriously.
Later, Xi Meijuan starred in the TV series "Red Prescription",
In it, he played Zhou Xun's mother "Shen Ruoyu".
Before the TV series began filming, the director said to Xi Meijuan:
"If you have nowhere to vent emotionally, you can really fight."
Xi Meijuan also really listened,
In the face of her drug-addicted daughter, in a hurry, she slapped Zhou Xun's face hard.
In order to have a better effect, this slap turned out to be a real punch,
This scene even Zhou Xun did not expect.
The performance of both actors is very good,
The image of the mother played by Xi Meijuan has also won the feelings of many people.
In 2000, Xi Meijuan starred in the TV series "Red Carnation",
In it she tried to play the villain role of the big corrupt official "Lan Sihong".
This is the first time she has tried such a negative role,
It was undoubtedly a huge challenge for her.
In order to get closer to the image of the character, she once went with the prosecutor to interrogate the prisoners.
She felt what she felt when she was questioned by the prosecutor as a prisoner.
That feeling of regret, helplessness.
Put into the TV series, Xi Meijuan released all her feelings,
Once again, her outstanding performance was recognized by the audience.
When starring in "Hawthorn Tree Love", in order to play a good worker,
She deliberately found a factory to work in it for half a month.
Experience the difficult lives of workers.
Almost before every filming, Xi Meijuan will experience the life of the characters in advance.
Feel the inner activities and emotions of the characters.
But most of the time, she plays a role like a mother.
This also earned her the title of "National Mother".
05
Although she has been out shooting for a long time, Xi Meijuan's love for her son is not less.
She often calls her son during breaks.
Share with her the day-to-day work in the crew.
Sons also share with their mothers what they experience every day.
The two laughed back and forth every time they called.
Whenever it comes to a special holiday,
Xi Meijuan will definitely rush home to spend time with her son,
She often took the camera and photographed it in front of her son.
Document his growth.
When my son was on summer vacation, the two of them went out on a trip together.
As long as her son has any hobbies, she will choose to support for the first time.
Take him to all kinds of competitions.
Xi Meijuan did not have much demand for her son,
I only hope that he can be safe and happy, as long as she is satisfied.
Maybe many people don't know,
Xi Meijuan, who has played countless mother roles, is also such a hard-working and strong mother in life.
Although the marriage knocked her down, it was fortunate to have the company of her son,
She was able to get through one difficulty after another.
The son is the driving force for Xi Meijuan to persevere.
Today, Xi Meijuan's son is 27 years old and has already grown into an adult.
Although childhood lacks paternal love,
But the love he received from his mother was long enough.
Now he also has a girlfriend,
But we believe that with such a loving mother,
His marriage should also be happy and beautiful.
In fact, most of the time, Xi Meijuan and her son are more like friends,
There was never a distinction between the two of them.
She just gave advice to the child as a friend.
All these years have passed,
Xi Meijuan has never complained about the difficulty of life,
And now she feels happy.
Although the years have brought her pain, they have also given her the motivation to get back on her feet.
It's been 27 years since she was raising her children alone, but she's always been alone.
In Xi Meijuan's eyes, she never hated her husband.
I just don't think there's anything wrong with loving or not loving anyone.
Although life was once very difficult, she never succumbed to fate,
That's what we have today.
Today, Xi Meijuan is still a role model for the younger generation of actors,
Her face was always filled with a strong and happy smile.
What makes this single mom great,
It is because she warms her family with love.
Although these beauties will be late, they will never be absent,
Let us bless this great Mother,
Bless our teacher Xi Meijuan!
