"Embroider a bright red raw silk skirt, wipe a face of rouge lead powder, open the chest, revealing the main waist of the pink yarn, and there is a gold button on it."
Shi Nai'an once described Sun Erniang in "Water Margin" and even called her "the first charm of Liangshan".
Different from the feminine arrogance of the role itself, Liang Li, who plays "Sun Erniang", is a down-to-earth "good family woman".
She acted hard, worked hard, and devoted herself to her family, but ended up as a wanted criminal, and her husband filed for divorce after she was audited.
And what kind of life does she live now, which rarely appears on the big screen?
01. From a young age, she has been the number one female
In the 1960s, a family of ordinary people who broke into the Kanto region to Harbin gave birth to a baby girl.
With a clear and deafening cry, the child's white face and dripping small eyes suddenly stunned the family.
"It's so beautiful, just call liang li!"
Not long after birth, the group moved to Baoji, Shaanxi, and poor Liang Li just learned a few words of "what do you see" and became a Shaanxi woman, eating steamed buns and living in caves with other friends.
As a child, she was beautiful and generous and could speak the Tao, which was particularly popular.
When I was in elementary school, in order to exercise the children's oral expression ability, the class teacher specially selected a group of backbones from the class, taught them to sing, dance and tell stories, and "toured" in each class every day, including Liang Li.
Because she often made a splash in the class, she became the school figure at that time, and it was common to go out to do publicity and do an activity.
Once the Baoji Song and Dance Troupe came to the school to enroll, Liang Li, as the soul of the propaganda team, naturally became the first batch of people to be selected.
First look at the appearance, three courts and five eyes are not bad; then look at the proportion of the figure, long arms and long legs can also be;
Finally, look at the overall state, it is you!
After being selected, the relatives around them all felt incredible, "Little people, this is going to make money?" Don't read? ”
But Liang Li did not take this to heart, a month of income of more than a dozen yuan is enough for her to eat and drink well, and she can also perform everywhere with the song and dance troupe, why not enjoy it?
During the training, she has acted in stage plays, and has also rehearsed many plays, almost all of which are female number one, which can be said to be acting since she was a child.
In 1984, the "Orchid Flower" crew recruited actors in Shaanxi, and she went with the mentality of trying it.
The audition on-site judges let Liang Li sing the theme song of "Orchid Flower", and Liang Li, who has always had an idea, tied a twisted braid like a monkey, and then combined with the thick northern Shaanxi singing voice, it suddenly surprised the audience.
There is no doubt that the heroine deserves it!
During the filming, she worked together with other creators, and all she thought about all day long was how to act well and how to present the characters in a round and round way.
"It was really silly then."
Is it really silly to go almost crazy for acting? Compared with the actress who now pays a lot but only cuts the picture and stares at the eyeballs, she is indeed "too stupid".
The smooth broadcast of "Orchid Flower" gave Liang Li a taste of sweetness, and three years later she took advantage of the momentum to star in "Strange Lovers", even if the opponent was Li Lingyu's family, she was not defeated at all.
At the same time, after becoming famous for the fairy tale drama "Twelve Months", she turned around and entered the Shaanxi People's Art Theater, and the stage became wider and wider.
Many people thought that she was to climb another level, but they did not know that the reason why she was transferred to Xi'an was entirely for her later husband, that is, the man who was more than ten years older than her.
The other party is an actor from the Xi'an Drama Theatre, and the two belong to their peers.
When they fell in love, Liang Licai was just a seventeen-year-old girl who had just learned about love, ignorant but full of expectations.
Since then, she has successively starred in dramas such as "The Female Secretary of Lianqin Headquarters" and "Tomb Mystery Case", which has truly opened up the market in the inland film and television circle.
In addition to playing the house girl, she also contributed a seductive version of "Su Daji", using that flirtatious but my mouth and hooked eyes to take away the heart of the King of Shang.
But what she didn't know was that a "more cruel" doom was coming towards her.
02. Yin and yang mistakes become wanted criminals
In 1988, Liang Li was filming in Haikou, and when she was not filming as usual, she talked to friends, ate and ate, and her life was comfortable and comfortable.
At that time, a friend who was going to do film and television investment approached her, asked her to find a bank acquaintance to do something, and promised to introduce her to a 10-episode TV series that she had put into production.
Liang Li, who has always been enthusiastic, did not think about it, so she introduced him to the bank's network, and then went to her own business.
Unexpectedly, this help actually "harmed" itself!
It turned out that this so-called "investor" was a fraudster, and he defrauded a total of 4.2 million yuan, which was called a "huge fraud case", and the relevant departments immediately launched a search and arrest.
Some people say that Liang Li did not do anything bad at all, why should she be involved? Think about it, although I did not participate in the fraud, as an "introducer", I unconsciously got into this "dark relationship chain", how could I get out?
Soon, the authorities launched an all-out search for her, and units, houses and even ports were plastered with wanted notices.
Big photos with eye-catching words make it hard not to get people to notice.
In that era when information was not developed, Liang Li, who was listed as a "wanted criminal", became a "big bad" in the eyes of everyone, and some people even rumored that she had committed suicide.
Liang Li was self-conscious and frank, and she quickly went to the police station to explain the situation and cooperate with the relevant personnel to investigate and visit, and finally arrested the criminal suspect a year later.
Years later, recalling the experience, she couldn't help but tease herself, "I really just went on a trip once." ”
It's easy to say, but who wants to travel to that place? Originally an innocent actress, but there are three words "wanted criminal" on her life resume, even if she is wronged, can society still recognize her?
Liang Li also played drums in her heart.
In 1991, when the "List of Fengshen Gods" was broadcast, and the audience was about to see Su Daji's style, the play was banned.
The reason was "too bloody and scary".
The hard-working drama ended up not even having the qualification to broadcast, and who listened to it was not uncomfortable?
What is even more chilling is that during his arrest, because he could not contact anyone, the original unit dismissed him on the grounds of absenteeism and other reasons.
Although he later returned to his original post, his heart was always not a taste.
Not only did the original unit "not trust" her, but even the husband who slept with her chose to leave her.
"He filed for divorce at that time, and before I could get out of it, he applied to the court for divorce, and it was a default judgment."
Liang Li, who heard the news, was like five thunderbolts, she never expected that her former partner would turn around and leave when she needed him the most, and she still left involuntarily.
All property, including children, is owned by the man, and only one Toshiba refrigerator is owned by the woman.
refrigerator? This verdict is simply comical, for Liang Li, even the marriage has festered, what is the point of keeping food fresh?
She immediately announced that "don't want the refrigerator either", and then turned away with two tears in her eyes.
Seeing Liang Li go downstairs and her ex-husband chase after her, he dragged her arm to beg for forgiveness, threatening that he had made this decision because he did not know the truth.
But where can Liang Li, whose heart is dead, listen to it, she cried and said, "I can really understand, I can understand." But why can't you wait for me? Even if I wait until I come out to make a decision. I've been with you since I was seventeen, and you're ten years older than me, but that's the end. ”
When she talked about this past, her eyes were full of vicissitudes, but she was not half sad, as if she was telling a story of someone else.
It is said that when her ex-husband held a funeral, Liang Li arrived as scheduled, and she said to the tombstone, "Tell me what you have mixed up in your life?" ”
Indeed, if the husband had been willing to wait and make plans, he might have been able to wait for the news of Liang Li's "acquittal", and the two of them could have made a comparison of the wings bird's grace and love for a hundred days.
But there is no "if" in this world.
03. Work hard to achieve "Sun Erniang"
In 1998, the TV series "Water Margin" recruited actors. At this time, Liang Li, who has experienced a big storm, has a new understanding of acting.
At the beginning, the role she admired was Pan Jinlian, and even though there were many candidates, she still stubbornly tried the play.
After the delay in waiting for the news of the director, Liang Li, who was anxious, had to call and ask.
The other person replied: "The blame is that you are so beautiful!" ”
This is, of course, a polite remark.
It turned out that the real "Pan Jinlian" in their hearts should be feminine enough, otherwise how to attract Ximen Qing to provoke that disaster?
Although Liang Li has a look and a figure, she lacks that "feminine energy".
Later, I thought about it again, Sun Erniang was beautiful and chivalrous, and Liang Li, who was beautiful and fierce, was slightly suitable.
In this way, she played one of the few female roles in the play, Sun Erniang, and thus won the list of acting skills, becoming the first impression of the "mother night fork" in people's hearts.
But this role is not easy to play.
You should know that most of the male characters in "Water Margin" are still historical dramas, and if they are not performed well, they will not only affect the role shaping, let the audience misunderstand, but also affect the broadcast quality of the entire drama.
In the heart of the old drama bone Liang Li, this would never dare to happen.
When filming a fight scene, she was "fighting" with her opponent with real knives and guns, when a wooden board fell off from above, causing the foot surface to be smashed, and the entire toe was directly swollen and difficult to walk.
Even if the pain is unbearable, Liang Li did not rest, and after a simple swelling and bandaging, she went back to work.
The crew was in poor condition, and at that time, they were filming a fight scene, which was inevitably dusty. Although the surface of the foot was simply treated, the old disease was still there, and it didn't take long for the pain to strike again.
When the assistant saw the situation, he quickly pulled her aside to persuade her to rest, where did Liang Li agree? She forced herself to get up and continue filming, but found that she couldn't get into the state because it was too painful.
In desperation, the director decided to use a stand-in to help her complete the difficult action.
In order to match the fierce posture of "Sun Erniang", the director found a man of five big and three thick and used his "thick" arms to complete the camera shooting.
After the TV series was broadcast, many attentive viewers found that the arms of "Sun Erniang" were different from each other, belonging to the "wearing gang shots", which was undoubtedly a big joke for Liang Li, who loved drama like a life.
Whenever she recalled this scene years later, she always felt sorry for her professional ethics. But in that case, the move is also a helpless choice.
In addition to acting in "Water Margin", she also interpreted the "Princess Taiping" in "Wu Zetian".
Unlike the absolute authority of Wu Zetian, although Princess Taiping also has the talent and ambition of her mother, she is more approachable, beautiful but not charming.
After the broadcast of this drama, Liang Li's value soared, not only gained money, she also had more choices in film and television resources.
"Trouble is wrong" extends an olive branch to it.
04. After all, live as a beam of light
Along with the cause, there is also peach blossom luck.
After saying goodbye to her ex-husband, she has been circling around in the red dust.
A wounded woman certainly wanted to have personal love until his appearance in 1993.
For this person, Liang Li did not say much in public, but from only a few words, it can be seen that the other party must be a warm man with a careful heart.
After falling in love for half a month, the two boldly married, but they chose to break up because of the lack of gathering. It was in 1997, when her career was at its peak.
Two failed marriages made her disappointed in life, and she has more than once issued a sad and indignant life motto.
"My life is a car, the steering wheel is in my own hands, but the throttle is stepped on by others."
After the divorce, Liang Li fell seriously ill, and this illness made her re-recognize herself, and also gave her a new understanding of the profession of acting.
In 2005, after acting for most of her life, she decided to change her career to become a boss and registered a film and television company in Beijing.
Later, many family-themed TV series were filmed successively, such as "The Story of How Much Money Marries People", "Want to Understand and Get Married Again", "Happiness And See the Rainbow" and so on.
There are many scenes, but they are not female number one.
On this point, Liang Li thought very clearly, no one will always be the female number one.
When young and beautiful, play the heroine or female number two, and when you are older, you will play the female number three, the female number four, the female number five, etc., which is the law of the market.
Similarly, Zhao Wei also said:
"Forever red is a particularly comical thing. In the end, we have to understand one thing, all people are a drop in the ocean of human growth. Knowing this, the heart of the actor will be much more comfortable. ”
Since then, she has gradually reduced her drama and mostly shared her mental journey with everyone in talk shows.
Host Wang Fang ridiculed her for "four years has not changed", and Wang Weinian next to her also praised her for maintaining a good state.
truly
The old drama bones that have been acting for so many years can still wear tight dresses, and it is indeed not easy for everyone to sit in the studio and laugh in a standard manner, which not only requires the blessing of expensive skin care products, but also the "stretching" of their own hearts.
"It's like dancing, you have to stretch that strength, if you loosen that strength, you will unload it, otherwise the spirit will be lifted."
From the much-anticipated female number one to the abandoned "wanted criminal", from the little girl full of love to the old drama bone that has gone through vicissitudes,
Liang Li's life is like riding a roller coaster, thrilling and emotional.
As the saying goes, "All experiences are the past", I hope Liang Li can continue to live beautifully and live beautifully!
