The first beauty of the 80s, Gong Xue
Gong Xue, the "double shadow queen" who won the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards in one fell swoop, was born in an artistic family, and under the influence of the elders in the family, Gong Xue also began to pursue art.
In 1970, after graduation, Gong Xue came to Jiangxi to work, she was not afraid of hardship and tiredness to participate in agricultural production with the local people, and it turned out that no matter where she worked, Gong Xue could strive for perfection.
Returning to Shanghai in 1972, she decided to pursue her dream of becoming an actress, because her age had missed the best time for the art examination, so under the advice of her family, Gong Xue chose to join the literary troupe as a transition to her dream.
At the age of 19, whether it is basic skills or professional knowledge, she is much behind the actors in the literary troupe, and If Gong Xue wants to catch up with everyone's progress, she will have to pay a thousand times more efforts.

So Gong Xue used all the time he could use to practice the basic skills, and the sweat he paid would eventually be rewarded, but in a year's time, Gong Xue had successfully become an excellent drama actor in the literary troupe.
As long as it is arranged for her role, no matter how long she appears, Gong Xue will play 120,000 points of spirit to prepare, and her conscientious and responsible work attitude quickly attracted the attention of teachers and some directors.
It is also in response to that opportunity that is left to those who are prepared, in 1974, the historical film "Wheels Rolling" began filming, the director found Gong Xue, said that he chose to let her try to play the role of migrant worker leader.
Although this role only has four lines, but it is her first contact with the big screen performance, Gong Xue immediately agreed to come down, keep these four lines in mind, and silently repeat them in her heart every day to ensure that when the official shooting can pass the director's examination perfectly.

Although when it was finally broadcast, her picture was often cut, but Gong Xue was not discouraged, and she firmly believed that she would always become a good actor.
Gong Xue was honing her acting skills when she was not on a performance task, and five years later, the director of "Sacrifice Red" found her and wanted to leave the role of the heroine to Gong Xue, who was beautiful and skilled in acting.
The heroine is a water picker, honest and kind, full of hope for life, and the director feels that Gong Xue is completely in line with his casting.
In order to be able to better fit the role, after getting the script, Gong Xue not only practiced carrying water, but also found a real water picker to observe and practice, but the film did not stir up a splash after it was released.

Some of the seniors on the set gave Gong Xue a lot of constructive advice on this failure, and she learned lessons, tried to make up for her own shortcomings, and strived to be close to the heart of the performing characters.
The unique appearance and attitude of facing difficulties have made Gong Xue favored by many directors, and in 1980, the heroine script of "Good Things and Many Grinding" found Gong Xue.
She has already found her biggest flaw from the failure of the previous film, and has perfectly resonated with the heroine Liu Fang in the script, and her grasp and portrayal of every detail is perfect.
Even the director in charge of the shooting has given a thumbs up more than once, praised her for her both divine form and shape, and played "Liu Fang" to life, and Gong Xue has also become popular with this movie and successfully entered the public's attention.

The double shadow queen is caught in a scandal for the crime of hooliganism
Gong Xue has become a hot big star, and many excellent scripts have invited her one after another.
But Gong Xue has never felt satisfied because of the aura on her body, and she is still moving forward on the road of pursuing her dreams, she knows that she stands out among many actors with good acting skills because of her outstanding appearance, so in order to break everyone's inherent impression of herself, she began to challenge some new roles.
In 1981, the arrogant rich woman Feng Meiqing in "Midnight" made everyone love and hate her, and what she loved was that she portrayed Feng Meiqing vividly, giving everyone a good movie-watching experience, hating her acting skills so that many people could not distinguish between her and the characters in the play, which is the best recognition of Gong Xue.

Gong Xue also played the role of Zhang Heng's wife Lan Zhuyi in "Zhang Heng", she also consulted a famous historian in order to better fit the heart of the character, speculating on the psychology of the other party, and once the film was broadcast, it once again caused everyone to cheer and support.
In 1984, Gong Xue won the fourth Golden Rooster Award and the seventh Hundred Flowers Award, taking off the laurel of "Double Shadow Queen", perhaps she herself did not think that after the peak of her career, what awaited her was a huge disaster.
Gong Xue has been obsessed with honing his acting skills for many years, has never had any scandals, and his reputation is one of the best, but one day in 1986, Gong Xue, who finished filming, was scolded by a man pointing at his nose on the road.

The sudden insults overwhelmed Gong Xue, and it was later learned that several men had formed a gang of thugs in Shanghai and raped more than fifty women in two years.
After they were arrested, they confessed their guilt one by one, mentioning that one of the victims' surname was Gong and that she was a well-known female star.
After everyone learned of this matter, they immediately thought of Gong Xue, who was in the limelight at that time, although it was not confirmed at this time, but everyone firmly believed that Gong Xue was the victim of it.
She also believes that she has such a thing, instead of clarifying to the public in time, she is still filming like a person who has nothing to do to make money, and the overwhelming scolding makes Gong Xue unable to work normally for a while, and her daily life has also been greatly affected.

Although someone wrote an article clarifying the matter, the rumors at that time intensified, and no one cared about the truth of the matter at all.
Gong Xue is ushering in his own "savior" - Zhang Xun in a time of despair.
Zhang Xun, a graduate of Peking University, met Gong Xue in 1984 through a drama performance, and the two initially got along as friends, but in the process of getting along, they developed feelings for each other.
Gong Xue later returned to China to work, and Zhang Xun chose to continue studying in the United States, although the two were in a different place, they often communicated about what was happening around them.

Gong Xue's life after he left the United States
Zhang Xun is not sure whether Gong Xue has love for himself, and he also knows that as an international student, he is not worthy of the legitimate red female star Gong Xue, so he buried this love deeply in his heart.
It wasn't until the news of Gong Xue's hooliganism that reached his ears that he made up his mind to confess to Gong Xue, hoping that she would accept her feelings and live with him in the United States.
Gong Xue was troubled at that time, wanting to get away from her current life, and she was not unkind to Zhang Xun, so she agreed to Zhang Xun's marriage proposal.
In 1986, Gong Xue embarked on a journey to the United States.
The time when she first came to the United States made Gong Xue relax, no one here knew her, and no one would point at her or rush up to ask her about hooliganism when she went out shopping for vegetables, and Gong Xue's mental state was getting better and better.
Zhang Xun and Gong Xue
In 1988, she gave birth to a lovely daughter, at this time Gong Xue has decided to completely fade out of the entertainment circle, she wants to accompany her husband and daughter, as a wife and mother.
The domestic gossip also fell silent little by little, until 1993, a domestic director contacted Gong Xue and expressed the hope that Gong Xue would not waste his talent and be able to re-shoot.
Gong Xue is very entangled, her previous life has been working hard for the acting career, if you say a little do not feel sorry is impossible, now there is a chance to find the door, she still wants to try it in her heart.
However, taking into account everyone's misunderstanding of her at the beginning, worried that going back to shoot this time would cause bad repercussions, and also worried that her husband was unwilling to let her return to China to make a movie for her children, Gong Xue did not immediately refuse the director's invitation, saying that she would consider it carefully and then reply.

After Zhang Xun learned of this news, he did not make a decision on behalf of his wife, he knew that Gong Xue cherished her acting career very much, so he encouraged her to follow her heart and try more, so as not to regret it in the future, and said that no matter what happened, he would definitely stand with her.
Gong Xue thought for a while and then returned to China to participate in the filming of "Stock Market Marriage", but at this time, she no longer had the original enthusiasm and returned to the United States to accompany her family immediately after filming.
In 2006, Zhang Xun returned to China to settle down because of his position transfer, Gong Xue also returned to the motherland with her husband, with the development of the times, the popularization of information, the injustice suffered by Gong Xue in that year has been clarified, and everyone also misses this film queen very much.
Everyone sighed, if Gong Xue had not been implicated in the crime of hooliganism, with her appearance and acting skills, she would certainly be able to create a legend in the film industry, and at this time, when she learned that Gong Xue returned to China, everyone began to miss the style of the first beautiful woman in the eighties on the screen.

However, Gong Xue did not have the idea of returning to the show business circle, the storm of that year was not necessarily a bad thing for her, if there was no "scandal" at the time, Gong Xue might have lived a popular star life, but she would not necessarily be married to Zhang Xun, nor would she have such a lovely daughter.
Gong Xue has already looked at this matter, whether it is a pity or not, she never dwells on what has happened, just strives to live a good life in the present, and is not ashamed.
Now Gong Xue has lived a happy retirement life, painting and writing at home every day, going to the square with her husband after dinner to hold hands and walking, her daughter and daughter are on vacation, and their family will come on a short trip, and their mental state is also very good.
