Grandpa is a descendant of the Manchurian Yellow Banner, and Dad was a distinguished little young master when he was a child.
And when she was three years old, she slept on the street and begged along the street.
Anyone who listens to this will be stunned, not from which TV series, but from what really happened, and it is Hui Yinghong, the winner of the first Academy Awards for Best Actress, who experienced all this.
Hui Yinghong's childhood days were very miserable, and she was forced to beg with her mother for a living.
Her brother Hui Tianci was sold to the singing team, and later she and her brother entered the show business circle.
Hui Yinghong has a high talent for acting, won many awards, and the audience has a reputation for her,
Is the bright pearl of the film industry, but she also has unsatisfactory, bluntly said that not married is her regret, the death of her brother Hui Tianci also made her regret for a lifetime, and now at the age of 62, she is still active on the stage, hoping to fill her life with work.
01
A bumpy road to fame
In 1960, Hui Yinghong was born in Hong Kong, and after only a few years of life as a big miss,
It fell into the middle of the house.
Thinking back to that year, Hui Yinghong's father was also a prominent family, such as the descendants of the Manchurian Yellow Flag in exchange for a fake bag.
But she did not expect that her father was calculated and deceived into losing his family property.
Her brother Hui Tianci was sold to study Peking Opera, and she followed her mother outside to make a living.
At that time, life was very difficult, forced to make a living, three-year-old Hui Yinghong followed her mother on the street begging, and at night there was nowhere to go, so she slept on the street.
Later, when she was a little older, Hui Yinghong sold chewing gum along the street.
Sometimes, she can't sell a few in a day, and she has to go hungry.
In order to make money, she went to work as a dancer at a Miramar nightclub, when she was still young.
At the end of the day, I have to go dancing non-stop.
After a year, Hui Yinghong felt that she could not eat, plus she did not have so much money, so she dropped out of school.
When Hui Yinghong thought that her life would go on like this endlessly,
Her life took a turn for the better.
One day, Hui Yinghong's friend rushed to her and said to her: "The famous director Zhang Che is going to hold an audition meeting to recruit actors, five hundred yuan a month!" ”
Hui Yinghong heard that there were a few hundred yuan to take every month, which was better than being a dancer, so she ran to participate without saying a word.
Hui Yinghong only realized how impulsive she was when she ran over, and many of the girls on the scene were exquisitely dressed and wearing gorgeous clothes, compared to herself like an ugly duckling.
People around her were reading thick scripts, and she didn't even know what an audition was.
It was her turn, and she had to go straight in.
Director Zhang Che watched a childish little girl walk in,
Let her introduce herself according to the process and the clips prepared for the performance,
Hui Yinghong is worried that she is not prepared, and with a clever move, she can play her own experience.
So she performed the street to sell chewing gum,
Thinking back to the hardships of that time, tears swirled in the eyes,
Zhang Dao was deeply touched after watching it and said: "This performance is very sincere! ”
In this way, Hui Yinghong's newborn calf's spirit of not being afraid of tigers and his acting skills without carving were favored by Director Zhang.
Hired Shaw to be an actor and got the "five hundred monthly salary" she expected. ”
From dancer to actress, Hui Yinghong adapted quickly, because of her previous personal experience,
She can quickly grasp the characteristics of a character and then bring her to life.
Director Zhang admired her very much, and every time he watched her performance, he said that she was very talented in acting.
After three years of training at the company, Hui Yinghong got the opportunity to appear on the screen.
At that time, Zhang Che was preparing to shoot the movie "The Legend of the Eagle Shooter", and felt that hui Yinghong should be given a chance to appear on camera, so he set the female number two Mu Nianci as her.
Hui Yinghong did not live up to Zhang Dao's expectations, and at the age of 17, she vividly interpreted Mu Nianci's gentle and shy, Chu Chu pitiful vivid image, leaving a deep impression on the audience.
After becoming famous in the film and television circle, Hui Yinghong felt that it was very good to be an actor, so she said to her brother: "You can also act like me." ”
After Hui Yinghong's brother Hui Tianci heard this, he also entered the show business circle.
At that time, Hong Kong martial arts films were extremely popular, and in order to catch up with the tide of the times, Hui Yinghong also planned to try it.
Hui Tianci when he was young
Under the recommendation of Director Zhang, Hui Yinghong met the director Liu Jialiang,
The first time they met, Liu Dao asked, "Are you so petite, can you shoot martial arts?" ”
Hui Yinghong didn't think about it and said, "I dare to shoot anything!" ”
Sure enough, as she said, even if it is a tall building, as soon as the shooting starts, she will not hesitate to jump down,
All the fight scenes, never use a stand-in, are her punches and punches.
Director Liu was very impressed with Hui Yinghong's spirit, and later, when preparing for the film "The Elders",
Without hesitation, he gave the heroine to her.
It is also because of this film that the 22-year-old Hui Yinghong won the best actress at the 1st Hong Kong Film Awards.
Hui Yinghong won the film, but she never forgot her brother who was still working hard, and every time she had an opportunity, she introduced Hui Tianci to the director around her, hoping that he could have more opportunities to appear on camera.
With the help of Hui Yinghong, Hui Tianci's fame gradually became louder, although it could not be compared with her, but it was already very good compared with before.
02
The Shadow Queen was on the verge of falling
Hui Yinghong's career was originally smooth, but because of one of her actions, it changed all.
In 1998, 28-year-old Hui Yinghong thought of leaving a memorial for her youth.
So I went to Paris, France to find a professional photographer to take a group of large-scale photos,
As soon as this news was transmitted back to China, it immediately aroused heated discussion throughout Hong Kong.
After all, at that time, there had never been a female star who took such an out-of-the-ordinary photo.
In the eyes of the public, this is very undeserved for whatever purpose.
For a time, public opinion was all accusations and criticisms of Hui Yinghong.
Many directors broke up with her, and even the rich second-generation boyfriend at the time was under pressure to break up with her.
In the face of such a scene, Hui Yinghong was overwhelmed but also calmly faced,
She felt that since she had done it, she did not regret it, and it was impossible for everyone to understand her.
But the consequences of this were far more serious than she had imagined.
The popularity of martial arts films is not as good as a day, and many directors have gone to shoot other subjects.
Coupled with Hui Yinghong's own controversy, she has not starred in any film and television works in the past 5 years.
It was not until 1993 that Hui Yinghong starred in the TV series "Joke About Qianlong 2" that it returned to the public eye.
After the filming of this scene, it was silent for another 4 years.
However, after she adjusted intermittently, she found that her place in the film world had long since disappeared, and her previous achievements and brilliance no longer existed.
In 1999, after not receiving another play for a long time, Hui Yinghong finally couldn't stand it and suffered from depression.
At that time, Hui Yinghong couldn't sleep all night, and every day when she closed her eyes, the past filming experience came to her mind like a movie, she was too painful,
He even chose to commit suicide, but fortunately he was rescued.
Brother Hui Tianci saw that his sister was so depressed, and his heart was very unhappy,
Regardless of her own work, I stayed with Hui Yinghong every day, very afraid that she was doing stupid things,
"I'm a failed actor." Hui Yinghong said to her brother,
"You are excellent! You'll definitely be waiting for your chance! "Hui Tianci always hears her say negative words,
He will encourage her, praise her, and hope that she can regain some self-confidence.
Time will slowly heal everything, and gradually, under the nourishment of love, Hui Yinghong will stand up again,
She wanted to understand that she had started as an actor from scratch, and now she could start from scratch.
"As long as the script is good, I am willing to play any role!" She said so.
In this way, Hui Yinghong began to take on some small roles, but no matter how inconspicuous this role was,
She takes it seriously and portrays the characters to the fullest,
The director looked at it and said, "Your character has played a role in finishing touches!" ”
It is gold that will shine sooner or later, and finally, Hui Yinghong ushered in the second highlight moment of her life.
In 2009, the movie "Heart Demon" starring Hui Yinghong caused a sensation as soon as it was released.
In the film, the single mother she plays has a strong possessiveness for her son, but also has a deep love, and her helplessness and sadness deeply affect the hearts of every audience.
Let people be moved.
This film not only allows the audience to see Hui Yinghong, who is still brilliant when she returns, but also allows the industry to see good actors who still love to perform.
In the same year, Hui Yinghong won the 46th Golden Horse Awards with the movie "Heart Demon".
In 2010, she won seven awards for the film, including "Best Actress" at the Hong Kong Film Critics Association Awards, "Best Actress" at the Hong Kong Film Awards, and "Best Actress" at the Chinese Film and Media Awards.
For a time, Hui Yinghong became a bright pearl in the film industry, and since then it has been a continuous film.
03
Two great regrets in life
Just when Hui Yinghong was happy for the smooth development of her career, a bad news was quietly approaching.
On that day, Hui Yinghong filmed in Hangzhou, ending the day's shooting as usual,
Seeing that the time was still early, I thought of calling my brother Hui Tianci who was far away in Beijing.
But it didn't connect, she looked at the text message she had sent before, and there was no reply.
This is not like his brother's usual habits, thinking of this, Hui Yinghong immediately contacted his agent,
Ask the other person to go to his residence to see.
Hui Yinghong would never have thought that she would wait for the news of her brother's death.
My brother's agent called and said that he had opened the door to find that Hui Tianci had died.
Favored Gifts
Hearing this, Hui Yinghong was almost completely stunned, quickly called the police and flew to Beijing.
Arriving at Hui Tianci's apartment, Hui Yinghong was stunned by the scene in front of her,
My brother was sitting alone on the couch, facing the TV, and the phone at hand had long since run out of electricity.
It looks very lonely.
What makes Hui Yinghong even more surprised is that her brother has actually died for 9 days.
Because I often stay at home and don't interact with others, I haven't been discovered for so long.
After knowing this, her tears fell almost immediately, and he could imagine how lonely and depressed his brother was staying in Beijing alone.
Hui Yinghong talks about her brother's death
At the beginning, she saw that Hui Tianci's career was not going well, thinking that Beijing had more opportunities, so she suggested that he come here to break in.
In order to let him be favored by more directors, he was also instructed to pay attention to his posture and control his diet.
Perhaps it is because of long-term controlled diet coupled with emotional depression that sudden death.
Thinking of this, Hui Yinghong felt that she had harmed him, and said directly in her mouth: "If it were not for me, my brother would not have come here and would not have left!" ”
The more she talked, the more excited she became, and the whole person was almost out of control, but she thought about dealing with the aftermath for her brother.
Still strong to survive.
Hui Yinghong talks about her brother losing weight
If the sudden death of his brother Hui Tianqi has become something that Hui Yinghong will not be able to let go of for a lifetime,
So not getting married so far is her most regrettable thing.
Some people say that Hui Yinghong did not marry because she was waiting for the love she met when she was young.
At that time, 12-year-old Hui Yinghong was selling chewing gum at the dock,
Sometimes she couldn't sell any of them, so she had to go hungry.
One day, she met a handsome, tall foreign sailor,
Looking at the appearance of eighteen or nineteen years old, the other party saw that she was selling so hard, so he bought it all in one breath.
This made Hui Yinghong very surprised, thinking that she could eat a full meal today, she smiled and said to the sailors: "Thank you!" ”
The sailor looked at her happily, and said with a lame Chinese, "No thanks." ”
From that day on, Hui Yinghong could meet this sailor every day, no matter how much gum was left, the other party would buy it in one go.
Hui Yinghong looked at the handsome face of the sailor and thought: I will not meet angels!
Maybe the sailor was really an angel sent by God to help her,
Because he will eventually leave.
That day, the sailors arrived late, and Hui Yinghong looked at him inquiringly,
The other person seemed to understand and said, "I'm going to Vietnam tomorrow." ”
"Can you teach me I love your Chinese?" The sailor went on to say,
After Hui Yinghong heard this, she thought it would be easy, so she said, "I love you." ”
The sailor listened and said to her, "I love you, too." ”
Not expecting the other party to say this, Hui Yinghong's heart suddenly sprouted, and her feelings did not disperse with his departure, and she always looked forward to seeing each other again.
In addition to this romantic experience, Hui Yinghong later talked about several relationships, but all ended in failure.
But when asked about love, she said that she would always believe in love.
I won't fall in love because I'm hurt, but I won't think about having children.
Today, Hui Yinghong is 62 years old, but still stands on the stage she loves.
She has always been high and strict with herself, and a few years ago, she shot the action movie "Mrs. K.".
Because the difficulty is too great and the recurrence of old injuries in the past, resulting in permanent disability of the left knee,
After that, I could no longer shoot scenes.
In addition to filming, she also participates in some fashion activities, showing her beauty and confidence on the runway.
Don't be afraid of the passing years.
Looking back at Hui Yinghong's life, from a big miss to a living street,
From the dancer to the Academy Awards, from silence to glory again,
Every one of her life experiences is full of her hard work and persistence.
Life will inevitably not be smooth sailing, on the road of ups and downs, we must not only cultivate our hearts, to meet the wind and rain of every journey,
We must work harder to meet the challenge of each one, and believe that we will be able to exchange sweat for a better tomorrow!
