She is 74 years old, and was brought into the show business circle by her son when she was nearly 60 years old, but now she is even better than her son.
Or China's first 10 billion box office old lady, known as "the most expensive supporting actress", she is the strength of the old drama bone Reed Qing.
How good is she? Why was she brought into the show business by her son in the first place? What kind of experience did she have before her debut?
There are many artists who have become late in entertainment, such as Jin Dong, who stepped into the show business circle at the age of 17 and became popular at the age of 39;
Yu Hewei, a powerful film emperor who debuted 25 years ago and Ni Dahong, who debuted 37 years ago and won the title of film emperor at the age of 59, etc.
These people are all exemplary of late success, but throughout the entertainment industry, there is only one artist who debuted in the past 60 years and received tens of billions of box office, and she is the old drama bone reed.
Speaking of the name Wei Qing, everyone may not be familiar with it, but you must have seen her film and television drama works.
In "Wolf Warrior 2", the beginning of "Cold Front" sends the ashes of his comrades home and struggles to stop the demolition team, and the mother of the martyr is played by Wei Qing.
A heart-rending, heart-rending, full of grief, "I am waiting for my son, I can't let him come back and find a home" is the most poignant scene in the whole film, directly watching how many viewers cried.
When holding her son's ashes, the sadness and despair she interpreted made countless viewers feel empathy and heartache.
In "I Am Not a Medicine God", she plays a grandmother with leukemia who cries to the police around her.
Touching and profound lines, coupled with her tearful interpretation of true feelings, the short 3-minute scene is extremely infectious, poking the audience's heart socket and making people cry.
Even many viewers can't help but sigh, when watching this video, they almost think that this is a real clip of the interview, in addition, Wei Qing also made a cameo appearance in the movie "Eight Hundred".
Because the final box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" was 5.68 billion, the final box office of "I Am Not a Medicine God" was 3.098 billion, and the final box office of "Eight Hundred" was 2.883 billion, a total of 11.662 billion.
Wei Qing was also called "China's first 10 billion box office old lady" and "the most expensive supporting actress" by netizens.
In the film and television circle, many well-known film actors can't act in TV series, and similarly, tv drama actors with superior strength can't act well in movies, but the old drama bone Reed is an exception.
In addition to her pure acting skills in the movie, she is not a problem with acting in TV dramas.
For example, the old mother who refuses to move in "The Tale of Wulin", the blind old lady in "Three Sisters", the second eldest bride in "Parental Love", the mother of Yu Zhan'ao brother SiKui in "Red Sorghum", the mother of "Wang Gui" in "Wang Gui and Anna", and the mother of "Zheng Juan" in "The World of Man".
Although Wei Qing plays basically rural old ladies in these TV series, these roles are portrayed by her with their own characteristics.
It will not let the audience see the shadows of other characters at all, let the audience feel empathy, and can't help but cry, which is textbook-level acting.
When Wei Qing plays a kind old lady, it is deeply touching, and playing an evil mother-in-law is really hateful to the bone.
The most typical example is that she cried twice and hanged herself three times in the TV series "An Jia", twisting the nonsense, shamelessly touching porcelain, and the greedy "cousin grandmother" of the city well to play into three points, making people hate to itch their teeth.
It is not an exaggeration to put this sentence on Wei Qing, but it is such an old drama bone whose acting skills are exploding, but he is not from a science class.
And it was no one else who brought her into the show business circle, it was her son Mao Bao, who was born in 1977 in Pingdingshan, Henan Province, and is a very good actor.
However, his road to fame was not smooth, he learned breakdancing from an early age, and he wanted to take the song and dance troupe, but he was not tall enough to apply for the Central Academy of Drama under the advice of his family.
Because of the problem of height, it was directly brushed off during the interview, and eventually could only become an auditor of the Chinese opera.
With hard work, he graduated with the first grade in the class.
After graduation, Mao Bao worked as a drama actor for several years, and then turned into the film and television circle, but for some special reasons, he missed a lot of opportunities to become popular, until 2002, he received an invitation from the crew of "The Story of the Cooking Class".
In this sitcom, the little warrior "Xiao Mao" he played was persistent and stubborn, taking a bite of Henan flavor, leaving a very deep impression on the audience, and Mao Bao was also well known to the audience.
In 2005, Mao Bao was filming "The Story of the Cooking Class 3", and when he was idle, Wei Qing planned to go to Beijing to visit his son.
It just so happened that in this drama, "Xiao Mao" had a scene where his mother came to visit him, so after Wei Qing arrived at the crew, he was favored by the director for a cameo.
Her rivalry with Mao Bao is delicate and natural, especially after learning that "Xiao Mao" was "persuaded to retreat", her sentence "Let's not listen to the advice" makes people can't help but be funny.
It is also this coincidence that makes Wei Qing, who is suffering from depression, determined to step into the show business circle, what is going on?
Why does Wei Qing suffer from depression?
Born in 1948 in Pingdingshan, Henan, she was rooted in Miaohong, and under the influence of her father, she also chose to join the army at the age of 13.
Because she was versatile and extremely talented in literature and art, she was assigned to work in the military region of Henan Province a year later.
During her four years in the cultural troupe, she successively studied vocal music and music performances, and followed the troops to perform in various places.
After retiring from the military, she worked as a radio announcer for a while, but she did not want to be here, and then she entered the cultural center with unremitting efforts.
After her career stabilized, she also got married smoothly and conceived a son and a daughter.
Like her son Mao Bao, her daughter Mao Mao also joined the show business circle and is a screenwriter.
Reed Qing was pleased to see a pair of children who had achieved success in their studies and sparkled in their respective fields, and after retirement, she could have spent her old age in peace, but she did not want to idle.
So she formed a dance performance team for the elderly, often participating in various local activities.
Because there are not many activities, most of the time there is nothing to do, and the children are also working in Beijing, Wei Qing is becoming more and more lonely, and her mood is getting lower and lower.
In the long run, depressed in her heart, she suffered from depression, did not eat or drink for a while, and at the worst, she even thought about taking her own life.
At that time, Mao Bao's acting career had just started, which was a good time to develop, but after learning the news of his mother's illness, Mao Bao returned home without saying a word.
It is also in order to take care of the old mother that Mao Bao missed many good opportunities, resulting in a tepid career.
Accompanied and enlightened by Mao Bao, Wei Qing's condition was gradually alleviated.
After making a cameo appearance in "The Story of the Cooking Class 3" by chance, the dream of acting in Wei Qing's heart finally broke ground and grew rapidly, and the opportunity soon came to her side.
It was 2005, and the crew of "Ren Changxia" came to Dengfeng, Henan, to find a local aunt to play the role of a big mother, and Wei Qing became the most suitable candidate.
It was also after the filming of "Ren Changxia" that Wei Qing's acting road officially began.
In 2011, in a certain program, Lin Yongjian once said that after watching "Ren Changxia", he was moved by Wei Qing's acting skills and did not hesitate to invite her to star in his new drama "Wang Gui and Anna".
With the popularity of these TV series, Wei Qing's acting skills have been unanimously recognized by the industry, and then her film and television resources have become more and more.
It is also after the successful realization of the dream, Wei Qing finally got rid of the depression that had plagued her for 10 years, and Wei Qing, who was brought into the show business circle by her son, is now better than her son.
Wei Qing has always been very humble after becoming famous, and she has always defined her success as luck.
It is said that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, and there is indeed no lack of luck in the popularity of Reed Qing.
But in the final analysis, it was her superb acting skills that did not lose to professionals that touched everyone, as she said, she was born for acting.
