Text/Nagging Officer No. 1
In the entertainment industry, there are many old drama bones who have become low-key and calm artists.
As a national first-class actor, Bi Yanjun is often overlooked in the bones of old dramas.
Bi Yanjun has been debuting for 36 years, playing many classic roles, and his acting skills have reached the point of pure fire.
Because it is too low-key, Bi Yanjun's name is still unfamiliar to many audiences, only knowing the classic roles he played.
It is worth mentioning that Bi Yanjun also has a more famous identity, that is, Chen Xiaoxu's ex-husband.
The love between the two was a match made in heaven, but they still could not go hand in hand to the end.
Later, Chen Xiaoxu passed away, Bi Yanjun was extremely sad, and the love story of the two could only become an eternal memory.
One
In 1955, Bi Yanjun was born in Anshan, Liaoning Province, and has been particularly fond of performing since childhood.
Bi Yanjun is also very motivated, and was admitted to the Anshan Repertory Theatre at the age of 17 and officially embarked on the road of acting.
In the Anshan Repertory Theatre, Bi Yanjun has been acting in dramas, so his acting skills are very good.
The most important thing is that Bi Yanjun also met his own love in the Anshan Repertory Theatre.
When Chen Xiaoxu was 14 years old, he entered the Anshan Repertory Theatre with his talent and became a screen reporter.
In this way, Bi Yanjun and Chen Xiaoxu, who was 10 years old, had a relationship.
Chen Xiaoxu was born in an artistic family, so she has been full of aura since she was a child, and she is versatile.
At the age of 14, Chen Xiaoxu began to publish articles in magazines, and her talent was also greatly exerted later.
At that time, Chen Xiaoxu was still an innocent girl, introverted and did not like to talk, and her biggest hobby was reading.
And Bi Yanjun looked at Chen Xiaoxu, who was quiet and handsome, and always had an inexplicable good feeling in his heart, thinking that she was not a tacky girl.
Therefore, Bi Yanjun, like a big brother, often cares about and takes care of Chen Xiaoxu, and the relationship between the two is becoming more and more intimate.
And Chen Xiaoxu, because of his sensitive and introverted personality, has gradually developed a good feeling for the mature and stable Bi Yanjun.
As Bi Yanjun grew older, relatives and colleagues began to care about his marriage and introduced him to the blind date.
Bi Yanjun was not only unwilling, but also not in a hurry at all, because he was already in love with Chen Xiaoxu in his heart.
To this end, the leaders of the repertory theater also deliberately talked to Bi Yanjun:
"You're not small, why don't you find a girlfriend?" Didn't any of the girls in the troupe look up to it? ”
Bi Yanjun replied romantically: "I have a girl I like, but she has not grown up yet." ”
The girl Bi Yanjun was talking about was Chen Xiaoxu, who was 10 years younger than him.
In the days of the repertory theatre, Bi Yanjun and Chen Xiaoxu got along day and night, and the relationship between the two began to gradually sublimate.
Two
By 1983, Chen Xiaoxu had the opportunity to change his life, and Bi Yanjun had become an extremely important person in his life.
That year, the crew of "Dream of the Red Chamber" began to select actors across the country, and Bi Yanjun told Chen Xiaoxu the news.
In Bi Yanjun's eyes, Chen Xiaoxu is the most suitable person to play Lin Daiyu, and the two have too many similarities.
However, Chen Xiaoxu did not have much confidence in herself, and she felt that with so many people in the country, how could she choose her obscure self.
Just when Chen Xiaoxu lacked self-confidence and courage, Bi Yanjun's encouragement and advice changed the trajectory of her life.
Bi Yanjun said to Chen Xiaoxu: "You are exactly the same as Lin Daiyu, you know the Dream of the Red Chamber very well, don't you even dare to fight for yourself once?" ”
Chen Xiaoxu is a very stubborn person in her bones, and after listening to Bi Yanjun's words, she decided to apply for the election.
Subsequently, Chen Xiaoxu chose a photo of himself, and then wrote a poem he wrote on the back of the photo.
That poem is "I Am a Willow":
I am a willow,
Grow up in the beautiful spring,
Because my parents abandoned me prematurely,
I became a confidant with The Wind.
Don't ask where my home is,
May the spring breeze to the ends of the earth.
With the help of Bi Yanjun, Chen Xiaoxu sent his recommendation letter to the crew of "Dream of the Red Chamber" and patiently waited for a reply.
What Chen Xiaoxu and Bi Yanjun did not expect was that director Wang Fulin actually wrote a letter to Chen Xiaoxu personally and asked her to go to Beijing for an interview.
"If the interview is successful, the travel expenses are reimbursed, and if it is not successful, you must take care of yourself."
After receiving the news of the interview, Bi Yanjun took Chen Xiaoxu to Beijing, and the two were extremely happy.
In this way, Chen Xiaoxu was finally determined to play the role of Lin Daiyu through his own efforts, and he also completely ushered in the transformation of his life.
Therefore, Chen Xiaoxu can play the role of Lin Daiyu, and Bi Yanjun has a great credit.
Chen Xiaoxu became a household name with Lin Daiyu, and Bi Yanjun was also extremely happy for her.
Bi Yanjun also began to work hard for his acting career, and then entered the Shanghai Theater Academy's performance cadre training class.
The two accompanied and supported each other, working together for a better future, and their feelings reached the most tacit understanding.
After becoming famous, someone asked Chen Xiaoxu what kind of man he liked?
She said: "He has ideals and talents, has good cultivation, good demeanor, and he can respect me." ”
And the man she was talking about in her heart was Bi Yanjun.
Soon after Chen Xiaoxu finished filming "Dream of the Red Chamber", he married Bi Yanjun, and two people with similar feelings finally achieved positive results.
But the beauty of love does not mean that the marriage can be happy, and after the marriage of the two, the contradiction begins to become increasingly prominent.
Three
At that time, the two admired each other and came together for the ideal of love in their hearts, but real life was full of challenges.
After the two got married, Chen Xiaoxu and Bi Yanjun began to have conflicts over various small things, and the relationship between the two became worse and worse.
Chen Xiaoxu became famous with Lin Daiyu, but he also limited his acting career, and his heart began to appear confused.
And Bi Yanjun's fame has not been as big as Chen Xiaoxu, so the love between the two has encountered realistic setbacks, and cracks have begun to appear.
Chen Xiaoxu's personality is extremely sensitive and often sulking, which also makes Bi Yanjun often feel annoyed and incomprehensible.
Chen Xiaoxu is a person who pursues perfection, and she begins to feel that Bi Yanjun has many shortcomings, which also makes her disappointed in marriage.
The so-called love is easy to keep each other, and the two eventually ended their marriage because of their incompatible personalities, and also ended the ideal love in their hearts.
After the divorce, the two began to part ways, each running to a different fate.
Later, Chen Xiaoxu met her second husband Hao Tong, and later turned into the advertising industry and became a strong business woman.
And Bi Yanjun's acting career has also begun to have a great improvement, and began to succeed step by step.
In 2000, Bi Yanjun starred in "The Gate of the Great Mansion", playing the role of Bai Yingxuan, the second grandfather of the Bai family, and began to become a late bloomer.
Subsequently, he starred in many classic film and television dramas and became a powerful actor.
Compared with Bi Yanjun's smooth life, Chen Xiaoxu's fate began to move towards sadness.
In 2006, Chen Xiaoxu was diagnosed with breast cancer, and the news shocked and saddened countless people.
After Bi Yanjun heard the news that Chen Xiaoxu had breast cancer, he was reluctant to believe it, thinking that it was fake news.
But the truth is that Chen Xiaoxu is almost at the end of his life.
In the spring of 2007, Chen Xiaoxu, who was suffering from cancer, chose to take refuge in Buddhism and chose to end his life peacefully.
At the last moment of Chen Xiaoxu's life, she chose to contact her ex-husband Bi Yanjun and say a final goodbye to him.
Chen Xiaoxu and Bi Yanjun answered the phone, and the two talked for 3 hours.
They recall the beauty of the past, and sadness constantly surges into their hearts, becoming unspeakable helplessness.
On May 13, 2007, Chen Xiaoxu passed away, which made countless people feel sad and unwilling.
Chen Xiaoxu's departure also took away Bi Yanjun's youth memories, and he also lived a quiet and low-key life.
Later, Bi Yanjun's acting career began to usher in an outbreak, and he was also known as "Daddy's Professional Household" and became an old drama bone.
Played Zhao Suchun's father Zhao Yuchu in "Silly Spring";
In "Looking Back Again", he played his father Luo Guangping;
In "The Wind Rises in the Langya List", he played Xun Baishui and so on.
In 2021, the TV series "The Age of Awakening" became popular, and Bi Yanjun played the role of Gu Hongming.
With the role of Gu Hongming, everyone was completely conquered by Bi Yanjun's acting skills and remembered his name.
Therefore, Bi Yanjun is a patient and low-key strength of the old drama bone, which can be called a clear stream in the show business circle.
Today, the 67-year-old Bi Yanjun is still insisting on filming, dedicating his life to art and living the life he wants.
"I just take acting seriously, I am a person with ideals and no goals, and a romantic mood to live a dull life." 」
And such a good actor is also worthy of our memory and love.
