When we were students, we more or less knew about "Dream of the Red Chamber". In the author's middle and high school stages, Dream of the Red Chamber is a required reading list, occupying at least 4 points in the entrance examination. So in order to better understand "Dream of the Red Chamber", the author has watched the 87 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" many times, and one of the roles has always made me unforgettable, she is Lin Daiyu played by Chen Xiaoxu.

Chen Xiaoxu's life is full of drama, in 1965, she was born into an artistic family, her father was a director, and her mother was a ballet teacher. Under the subtle influence of the family, Chen Xiaoxu is naturally a literary and artistic girl. At the age of 14, she wrote a poem and published it in a magazine.
Chen Xiaoxu's father wanted Chen Xiaoxu to learn Peking Opera with him, but Chen Xiaoxu wanted to be an elegant ballet dancer like his mother, so Chen Xiaoxu embarked on the road of dance. When Chen Xiaoxu was studying for dance school, there was a little accident, and she had to give up her ballet career and become an actress halfway out of the house.
In 1982, she starred in a supporting role in "Family Style", after the release of this play, Chen Xiaoxu did not become a hit, but lived an ordinary life as usual.
In 1983, the news of the "Dream of the Red Chamber" crew recruiting actors across the country reached Chen Xiaoxu's ears, and at this time, the young girl made a crazy decision - Mao Sui volunteered to play Lin Daiyu.
After round after round of interviews, director Wang Fulin hesitated, because the director did not want Chen Xiaoxu to play Lin Daiyu. One is because Chen Xiaoxu does not have much acting experience, and the other is that Lin Daiyu is an important role in this play, and the casting must be cautious.
Seeing Wang Fulin's hesitation, Chen Xiaoxu tried everything to let the director know that she was the most suitable candidate for Daiyu. Wang Fulin looked at Chen Xiaoxu in front of him, thought about the poems she wrote, and thought that chen Xiaoxu could try this role.
After that, Chen Xiaoxu, together with the Dream of the Red Chamber crew, conducted a three-month training in the Yuanmingyuan. During the training, Wang Fulin took Chen Xiaoxu's serious look in his eyes. Therefore, after the training was over, Wang Fulin made up his mind to let Chen Xiaoxu play Lin Daiyu.
Time is like an arrow, three years have passed in a flash, in 1987, "Dream of the Red Chamber" was completed, broadcast in turn on various David TV, and won the support of the people. The tide is rising, Chen Xiaoxu has also received unprecedented attention from people, everyone said that Chen Xiaoxu is simply Lin Daiyu herself, and it is not too much to say that she is a "weak willow supporting the wind" girl who came out of "Dream of the Red Chamber".
However, since the successful portrayal of the role of Lin Daiyu, the other roles played by Chen Xiaoxu are tepid, so Chen Xiaoxu pondered whether she is suitable for the path of an actor.
In 1996, Chen Xiaoxu decided to abandon the path of acting and embark on the road of business. She used her savings to start the Beijing Shibang Advertising Agency, and after many years of ups and downs in the commercial sea, she made a lot of money.
In terms of career, Chen Xiaoxu is smooth sailing, but in terms of love, it is not so, Chen Xiaoxu has two husbands. Not long after "Dream of the Red Chamber", Chen Xiaoxu and Bi Yanjun came together.
Unfortunately, the two fell apart and eventually divorced. When filming "Black Grapes" in 1991, Chen Xiaoxu and her second husband Hao Tong sparked a spark. Since then, the two have run an advertising business together, which can be described as a double harvest of career love.
There are unpredictable storms in the sky, and people have bad luck and bad luck. At the highlight of Chen Xiaoxu's life, she was actually diagnosed with breast cancer. It is said that before the cancer was detected, Chen Xiaoxu did not feel any discomfort in his body.
Chen Xiaoxu is a woman like Sister Lin who "prefers to be crushed by jade, not for Waquan", although breast cancer has the possibility of cure, Chen Xiaoxu did not choose treatment, but decided to shave as a nun. Her family didn't understand why she did it, but her husband Hao Tong has been silently supporting him behind her back. Not long after, Hao Tong also became a monk.
Because there was no timely treatment, Chen Xiaoxu's body was not as good as a day, and in the later stage, she could not even walk and could only spend her days in a wheelchair. After that, she couldn't even sit in a wheelchair, so she had to lie in bed.
On her deathbed, she weakly told his father that she was going to "die." "Past lives" is actually a Buddhist term to the effect of death.
Hearing Chen Xiaoxu say this, Chen Xiaoxu's father couldn't help but burst into tears, but no matter how sad it was, it was useless, and Chen Xiaoxu finally died at the age of forty-one. Not long after, Chen Xiaoxu's funeral was held, her father Chen Qiang choked up several times in public and could not speak, and her husband Hao Tong did not attend the funeral because it was difficult to accept the fact that his wife had left, but overstepped his wife in the temple.

So far, Chen Xiaoxu has been dead for 15 years, and many people say that Lin Daiyu has a spirit in heaven and took her away.
The author feels that Chen Xiaoxu really played the role of Lin Daiyu, if she had not been a nun but actively treated at that time, the ending would be very different from today.
