The 1960s.
Hong Kong under the british government of Hong Kong, both ideologically and economically, has drifted away from the mainland and has created incompatible isolation and confrontation. However, due to the natural connection of geographical location, Hong Kong and the mainland have maintained a divine synchronization of major historical events - social difficulties, economic turmoil, corruption, and contradictions, and Hong Kong has since entered a dark age.
In the middle of the year 1966, a girl was born.
No one expected that in the future, this girl would bring a figure that would be the envy of all men and women in Hong Kong.
Her name is Leaf Frieze.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="01" > the first ATV</h1>
Leaf frieze, formerly known as Ye SuQun.
His father was a hairdresser and his mother ran the housework at home. There are also brothers and sisters in the family, and a family of 6 is crowded into a rental house, and life cannot be said to be poor, but it is also stretched.
After graduating from high school, Ye Zilin, who was less than 20 years old, embraced the dream of becoming a star, signed up for the ATV artist training class, and successfully graduated in the third phase in 1985.
Although the ATV training class is not as proud as wireless, it has also contributed a number of star artists to Hong Kong.
In the second period before Ye Zilin, he graduated Huang Qiusheng, who is also good and evil, Wu Yijian, who is good at villains, and Yuan Qiongdan, the "pomegranate sister".
After her, she walked out of Jiang Hua, Li Ming, Zhang Min and Zhang Jiahui.
At the time of graduation, Ye Zilin achieved remarkable results, stood out from more than 1,000 students, and successfully signed a contract with ATV.
However, bad luck. I thought that she could quickly reduce the burden for her family when she stepped into the show business circle, who knew that it was the "Asian Sister" beauty pageant, Ye Yuqing, Li Zhi and a large number of beautiful women such as Jade Body, and the scenery was infinite for a while.
This overshadowed the actors in the training class, especially the actresses, who were more difficult to get the favor of fate.
During the signing of ATV, Ye Zilin did not get much attention, and in the TV series "Tianya Mingyue Knife" and "White Haired Witch", they were all supporting roles, and even dragon sets. Less than 3,000 yuan a month.
Even so, she has always insisted. Repeat the set every day and play some inconsequential roles.
Forced by the helplessness of livelihood, a weekly magazine once found Ye Zilin during this period. They were good at observation, discovered the beautiful and unique features of the leaf frieze, and invited the leaf frieze to take a group of photographs.
I didn't want to sell well, and it was this group of photos that gradually opened up some popularity for Ye Zilin.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="02" > "electric" Jiahe</h1>
In 1988, Ye Zilin, who had developed nowhere in ATV, chose to sign Jiahe.
At that time, Jiahe was very influential in the Hong Kong film industry, with many artists such as Jackie Chan, Lee Xiu-hsien, Maggie Cheung, Yang Ziqiong, Hu Hui, etc., and the best were kung fu films and action movies. Jackie Chan's golden signboard makes Jiahe earn a lot of money. To this end, the company decided to innovate and continue to shoot the female-dominated action movie "Divine Flying Tiger Overlord Flower". Although the leaf frieze in the film is a supporting role, his figure is eye-catching, and the clip of the chest shot also left a deep impression on the audience.
Under the differentiated marketing and packaging of Jiahe, Ye Zilin's proud figure finally got attention on the big screen.
It is said that she has a waist circumference of 22 inches and a chest circumference of 36 inches. It is no wonder that Ni Kuang also had to sigh: "There are many women with large breasts, like leaf frieze, and at the same time have such a delicate waist, which is rare!" Plus her face is also good-looking. Rare, really rare beauty. ”
Since then, Ye Zilin has made cameo appearances in several films, and almost every film focuses on her unique parts. For example, "Rich and Happy Ghost", "Happy Giant", "Ghost Man", "Corpse Heavy Land" and so on.
In 1991, Ye Zilin participated in Stephen Chow's "Love Saint". At that time, Star Ye had already proved himself in 1990's "Gamble Saint", and he also brought red leaf frieze along the way. With the participation in more Jiahe films, Ye Zilin also determined his own foothold capital. In the same year, she bought 2 million insurance for her breasts in an insurance company in the United States, which caused a sensation in Hong Kong. This is the first "body insurance" in Hong Kong.
Rising fame, more and more filmmakers do not hesitate to spend a lot of money, hoping that Ye Zilin can star in large-scale films, and Hong Kong film fans are also eager to feed, unscrupulously clamoring to satisfy their "peeping pleasure". Sure enough, in a male-dominated gender society, "the image of a woman is the real foundation of a consumer society." This special thing must become the best carrier of the satisfaction of men's subconscious deep desires.
In addition, in the 90s, in addition to the absolute trump card, the artist's position and voice within the film company were very low. If the company and the boss asked, few actors dare to say a word, and the situation of actresses is even more difficult.
As a result, it was impossible to resist the continuous lobbying of Cai Lan, one of Hong Kong's four talents (then the supervising producer of Jiahe). Ye Zilin was helpless, and half pushed and half on the spot began to take on a large-scale film.
Large-scale outbreaks
The launch of large-scale films such as "Liaozhai Yan tan" in 1990 and "Stealing Love Treasure Book" in 1991 swept through the clouds for a time, and the box office tens of millions of dollars were swept away, and the leaves were red through half the sky.
"Talking about Yan Tan"
"Secret Love Treasure Book"
However, no matter how charming and sexy, Ye Zilin always adheres to the principle of "only taking off and not revealing" in the film. This principle has not been compromised until she withdrew from the screen, which can be said to be a legend in the Hong Kong showbiz circle.
When participating in Huang Xia, Cai Lan, and Ni Kuang's "No Defense Tonight", Ye Zilin won the title of "First Wave Bully".
Fame is also accompanied by controversy.
Some people like it, and naturally some people don't like it.
Appearing on the street, it is indispensable to chase, but also indispensable to different eyes. Others say that she relies on her invincible figure to stand out, and she also accepts it frankly, "For example, some people say that I make money by my body, but I am born (good body), can be appreciated and gained, I think it is worth it." 」
In her eyes, sexy stars are not inferior. Everyone has come up step by step by their own efforts, and there is no distinction between high and low.
However, coming and going fast, when everyone was indulging in the amazement and sexiness brought by the leaf frieze, she began to retreat.
"The Secret Of Love" set a box office record of nearly 20 million, and then such films began to flood. Including the later Shu Qi and Li Lizhen also became famous for such films, but at that time, Ye Zilin had also withdrawn, leaving only legends.
Christmas 1992, Leaf Frieze and Lu Xizhao
In 1992, Ye Zilin met orthopedic surgeon Lu Xizhao, and after confirming the relationship, he announced the end of the film several times.
She also tried to transform, and even entered the Taiwanese entertainment industry and released the album "Very Frank". The album was produced by Qi Qin and composed, but the response was mediocre, and for a while it made Ye Zi frieze in the song world. The public didn't buy it, preferring to see the rough seas on the screen rather than the sounds coming from the record players.
Now we can also hear this album, full of the rhythm and rhythm of the sense of age, talking about the memories of the past years.
In 1994, the market competition became more and more fierce, and Ye Zimei gradually lost interest in her because she had always adhered to her principles and bottom line.
Yes, the market is so cruel.
You don't dare, doesn't mean the back waves don't dare. Once the wave rises, a wave is stronger than a wave.
Ye Zilin's last film was "Underground Ruling" in 1994, after which she completely faded out and lived a life of immortal beauty with Lu Xizhao.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="03" > "The Legend of Sister Xia" & "Cinque Ainu"</h1>
Presumably, no one wants to live their lives as a star.
Years later, when asked again why he made the decision to quit the circle, Ye Zilin thought that the acting career of "looking at the chest without watching the drama" made him extremely tired. "Whether it's acting or in other places, everyone just talks about my breasts, but in fact, I can act, just like the legend of the Nightlife Queen's Sister Xia, which can make me play." 」
Released in November 1991, Ye Zilin's "Legend of the Nightlife Queen's Sister Xia" is a limited-edition film directed by Huang Jinghua, which brings together Cheng Kui'an, Shan Liwen, Li Zi, Chen Baolian, Han Jun, Ke Shouliang, Otomo Li Nai, Lü Liangwei, Wu Mengda, Qin Pei, Cheng Dong and other gold medal supporting roles, and is also the only Hong Kong-made gangster film with female protagonists in the 1990s.
In 1991, "Lame Hao" pioneered the Hong Kong-made gangster films. Through Wu Guohao's legendary life, he has obtained a double harvest of box office and word of mouth, and is a classic with great commercial temperament and artistic affirmation. At the 11th Hong Kong Film Awards, "Lame Hao" won two titles: Best Screenplay and Best Picture.
However, as David Podwell put it, Hong Kong films immersed in collage imitation follow a "scavenging aesthetic", "The Hong Kong film industry is famous for following the trend, but before 'playing with' a certain genre or a certain trend, there is always something wonderful." In 1991, 5 follow-up "Lame Hao" works appeared one after another, but unfortunately they were all crude imitations, dissolving the macro historical dimension of the Owl Film, and "The Legend of xia sister of the Nightlife Queen" is also one of them.
After the release of the film, the commercial response was not bad (42nd at the box office in the same year), but the plot was monotonous, the artistic effect was flat, the style was low, and it was another product under the assembly line.
Yes, it's very wang jing.
However, this is Ye Zilin's favorite film.
As mentioned at the beginning, Hong Kong in the 1960s and 1970s was a mixture of fish and dragons and a variety of colors.
The world of red wine and green makes many young people fall into the mud, and see how Wang Xia in the tea house completes the ascension step by step with her heart and man; and under the lack of affection with her daughter, step by step towards tragedy, she can't escape this quagmire after all.
Ye Zilin was given the opportunity to polish and show off his acting skills. Although the plot does not leave her much room to play, at least it is no longer deliberately based on her body as a selling point, and the proud posture has become the need of the subject matter.
The simple Ah Xia was victimized by Arun because of her youth and ignorance, and after seeing the ruthlessness and means of men, she was alone with her daughter, wanting to survive in society, and she had to practice the seven tricks without a heart. On the surface, we see a woman who uses male power and beauty to step into the position, but behind it is the helplessness of a mother, and it is the devouring of human nature by the social dyeing vat.
Ye Zilin has gone through 5 stages in the film, and also shows the psychological state of different periods in a rich layer. However, now that the beauty is late, it is difficult to see the eldest sister to prove their strength, leaving behind the "narrative community" formed by Xiajie and other tyrants, carrying the collective memories of Hong Kong people in the 60s and 70s.
In 1992, Ye Zilin ushered in another highlight opportunity - "Special Zone Love Slave".
Su Zhen, played by Ye Zilin, is really a Cantonese woman. The husband had a dispute with someone, and the two fled to Hong Kong. Later, the husband was unfortunately killed by the police, and the young child was placed. Su Zhenzhen turned back. Six years later, in order to see her son again, Su Zhenzhen volunteered to work in Macau, but she did not expect to be lured by the snake group... Such a backstory can be said to be tailor-made for Ye Zilin, has a social topic worth excavating and analyzing, can refract human affection and social phenomena through the bitter and helpless heroine experience, regrettably, the fast-paced assembly line production and the needs of the copper smell box office, this film has finally become a mixture of eroticism, gunfights, flying car stew, leaving the afternoon horse to play the villain, foot on Su Zhenzhen's chest of a profound scene.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="04" > su group</h1>
The leaf frieze behind the shadow is flat and pyrotechnic.
Although she left the jianghu, the jianghu has always had her legend. Gossip weekly magazines naturally will not let go of the daily life of this classical Yan star, and every three to five will take advantage of the situation of "old age and decline", "fat woman", "big mother" to brush a wave of existence. But Ye Zilin obviously didn't care about this, and she enjoyed her life with her lover more: "No need to catch up with announcements, no need to stay up late, and no need to fly around." ”
In fact, Ye Zilin has never married Lu Xizhao.
In an interview with The Weekly, she admitted that she had indeed thought about and had the urge to get married before, but in the end she had not finished. What now? Ye Zilin said, "It's been so long, there's no need for it." After 23 years together, love becomes a feeling, which can be sublimated to a relationship like a family, or it can gradually become a stranger who "lives in the same house". Ye Zilin said: "After a long time, it is a little stuffy, but everyone has their own space and will be more comfortable." As for the money aspect, don't worry: "I won't open a joint account, women must be independent, but together they have to support me!" ”
In January 2019, Lu Xizhao died of a sudden heart attack, and a generation of stars has been lonely since then, which is lamentable.
Life is a lifetime, but a few years in a hurry.
For the leaf frieze, it has come, it has been red, and the world remembers.
Moreover, her career and life are very clear - when in the circle, she has her own bottom line and principles, does not lose herself in Vanity Fair, and can choose the rapids at the right time.
It can withstand prosperity, and it can afford to be plain.
Nowadays, "yellow curly green lights, beautiful people are late".
Leaf frieze, far more wonderful than we thought.
