Some time ago, a very popular TV series "Genius Basic Law" announced the full lineup list, and the name "Tong Yao" once again appeared in the public eye.
This also made the audience who was embarrassed by the Magnolia Award a year ago once again send a slight sarcasm, "Don't say that the people's aesthetics are not good, you aesthetics are good, you choose Tong Yao as the heroine!" ”
In the 2021 Magnolia Award, Tong Yao broke through among various powerful actresses, and with her acting skills in "Thirty Only", she pressed Zay's "splash" to become the rear of the eye.
This result instantly detonated the whole network, and more viewers sent out on Weibo "Who watched and did not say a word Wang Ran Niu X!" " sigh.
So, who is Wang Ran? What does Tong Yao's award have to do with Wang Ran?
Wang Ran is the founder and CEO of Yikai Capital Co., Ltd. and the husband who wants to shield Tong Yao from the wind and rain.
Wang Ran was born in 1968 in Beijing to a family of scholars, both of whom were teachers at universities in the capital.
Therefore, when his peers were still struggling on the food and clothing line, Wang Ran had begun to absorb various profound knowledge, which also laid the foundation for him to study abroad later.
In Wang Ran's sophomore year of high school, the school had a sino-US exchange student program, as a school leader, how could he be absent from this matter?
Soon, Wang Ran went to Hawaii as a representative to study and exchange.
Wang Ran on the plane probably would not have imagined that in a hospital in Kunming, Yunnan Province, a little baby who was crying and crying would be entangled with him for half a lifetime in the future.
After finishing his junior year of high school in the United States, Wang Ran went to the University of Minnesota and Harvard University to study.
Under the guidance of his father, Wang Ran did not return to China, but looked for new development opportunities in the United States. After several job hoppings, he successfully entered the well-known international investment bank Goldman Sachs.
As the saying goes, there are people outside the people, there is a sky outside the sky, Wang Ran's academic experience is already the best among his peers, but in this big company, he realized for the first time that the gap between people is so large.
So, after working for a few years, Wang Ran returned to Harvard Business School to continue his studies, read an MBA, and obtained a master's degree in business administration.
Wang Ran, who felt that he had returned from his studies, was full of ambition and decided to take advantage of a wave of east wind to return to China for development. But reality taught him another lesson, starting a business is not so easy.
After returning to China, Wang Ran had no connections and no experience, and he would go to see various business tycoons every day, but all he got was some scenes that were not salty and not light.
The most interesting thing is that Wang Ran must often mix English words when speaking, so as to prove that he really returned from studying abroad.
Wang Ran's head was broken and bleeding, and Tong Yao's life at this time was not good. Tong Yao, who studied at the Kunming Literary and Art School, was practicing hard to go to Beijing to study, and fell ill.
Although the two do not know each other, but the heart of working hard for the future is the same, perhaps the two will attract each other to come together, with this same concept of human life.
Three years later, Wang Ran's company officially declared bankruptcy, and he himself returned to the United States to work for JPMorgan Chase.
I have to say that Wang Ran is really successful in the United States, and in just a few years, he has manipulated mergers and acquisitions with a total amount of more than two billion.
Fast forward three years, and Wang Ran had become vice president of an international investment bank. But no matter how high the status, the mood of working for others and starting your own business is always different.
So after rearranging the plan, Wang Ran set off to return to China. Today, he not only has a new experience and perspective, but also has accumulated start-up capital for Wang Ran over the years of senior management.
Riding on the east wind of the Internet, Yikai Capital came into being.
The operation idea of Yikai Capital is very clear, just like the businessman who sold the shovel during the gold rush in the United States, the gold panning is likely to be lost, but the sale of the shovel is stable and profitable.
Easy Kai Capital is to be a "shovel- selling" company to help various Internet start-ups raise funds.
Wang Ran's first client was Shao Yibo, a student at Harvard Business School.
Shao Yibo's company, eBay, may not be familiar to everyone, but it was once a behemoth that could compete with Taobao.
Wang Ran, who made this list, made a good start, and various Internet upstarts such as Sina, NetEase, Shanda, etc. have found Wang Ran, and have become customers of Yikai Capital.
According to Wang Ran's recollection, how crazy the market was that year, almost every month can receive orders from various large companies, involving amounts of tens of millions.
At this time, Wang Ran was proud of the spring breeze, and Tong Yao, who was studying in Chinese opera, also started his acting career.
In 2022, Tong Yao was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama with the first place in professional courses.
Soon after, Tong Yao and Zhang Mo, the son of Zhang Guoguo, fell in love, and then broke the rules of Chinese opera that students were not allowed to take over the drama, starring in "Lin Hai Xueyuan", which is a little famous.
Fate is so wonderful, two people who have never known each other, but the ups and downs of their careers are very similar.
In 2003, the Internet bubble burst, and Wang Ran's business suffered a blow and he once again faced the risk of bankruptcy. At the same time, Tong Yao was also deeply involved in the storm of "being beaten", and there were no good resources for many years after that.
In 2003, because there was no business and the withdrawal of partners, Wang Ran's company was on the verge of bankruptcy, and when the number of employees was the smallest, there were only three of them.
In order to save costs, Wang Ran also moved the company from the status symbol of Guomao to the cheaper China Resources Building. It's just that if there is no more business, Wang Ran can't support it no matter how much he saves capital.
Fortunately, the bubble lasted only one year, and Wang Ran, who survived 2003, gradually "stood up".
After years of operation, Yikai Capital has also become a leader in the industry, and its business tentacles have begun to approach the entertainment industry.
Wang Ran of the business world survived, but Tong Yao's career in the entertainment industry continued to be sluggish.
During the study of Chinese opera, Tong Yao and Zhang Mo fell in love, which was originally a good story of Lang Cai's female appearance, but unexpectedly Zhang Mo had a serious violent tendency.
According to Tong Yao, during the period of love between the two, Zhang Mo would punch and kick her at every turn. Tong Yao could not stand Zhang Mo's violent behavior and proposed to him to break up.
But Zhang Mo not only disagreed, but even pestered Tong Yao's dormitory downstairs, fortunately stopped in time by the dormitory.
In December 2003, Zhang Mo texted Tong Yao asking for a good talk.
Tong Yao couldn't help him, and could only go downstairs hoping to understand at this time. But what she did not expect was that Zhang Mo came up and pulled Tong Yao to the school gate and began to commit violence.
In the end, Tong Yao, who was beaten to the point of breaking his nose bone and bleeding in his left eye, was taken to the hospital by his classmates.
This matter was boiling over the Internet at the time, and Zhang Guoli could not resist the pressure to publicly apologize to the whole network, and Zhang Mo, who beat him, was expelled from the school.
Although the beater was punished, Tong Yao's just starting acting career was also cut off.
The reason for Zhang Mo's beating has been rumored in many versions, and her relationship with Tong Yao has become confusing.
Therefore, when studying in Chinese opera, many students are reluctant to cooperate with Tong Yao because of the influence of rumors, and in daily life, she is also disliked and resisted.
In addition, Zhang Mo is zhang Guoguo's son, and after Tong Yao graduated and officially entered the show business circle, she basically could not receive any good scripts or roles.
When her classmate Tang Yan exploded, nursery rhymes were still struggling at the bottom of the entertainment industry.
When Tong Yao doubted his life, Wang Ran began to initially dabble in the cultural and entertainment circles. The first person to work with him was the famous Light Media.
Just say the company name everyone may not have a concept, to give a few examples, "Nezha's Devil Boy Descending", "Mermaid", "Gang 囧" and so on are all works of Light Media.
Not only that, the Jiahuayi brothers of Light Media are also Wang Ran's partners, and he was also invited to participate in the screening of "Night Feast" directed by Feng Xiaogang.
In addition to the leading companies in the entertainment industry, the director of Hunan Satellite TV also intersects with him.
It can be said that compared with the status of Wang Ran and Tong Yao at that time, it was a heaven and a place.
How did two people with such a large gap in identity meet and fall in love and finally enter the palace of marriage?
In 2013, Tong Yao was photographed dating Wang Ran many times, and the two drank coffee sweetly together.
It's just that in recent years, Tong Yao is still in a tepid state, and Wang Ran, who is a cast person, is not well known to the public, so it has not caused heated discussion.
Until 2019, Tong Yao and Wang Ran held a wedding in Italy, and their love affair was known.
However, both men are cautious about their relationship, and apart from a few date photos, no one knows how they met and fell in love.
But what is certain is that after falling in love with Wang Ran, Tong Yao's career also began to usher in a turnaround.
In 2016, Tong Yao starred in "Ruyi Zhuan" starring Zhou Xun and Huo Jianhua. In this drama, Tong Yao played the imperial concubine Gao Xiyue, and with the controversy and topicality of the role, she can also be regarded as a small fire.
In 2018, Tong Yao starred in Song Yunping of "Big River" and opened the way for her acting career to take off.
Last year's hit "Thirty Only", Tong Yao played the role of "Gu Jia" from a supporting role to a female protagonist, successfully grabbed the focus of the audience's attention, and successfully circled a group of fans.
For example, counting the time of Tong Yao's work, it is not difficult for us to see that since she fell in love with Wang Ran, Tong Yao began to take on various large-scale good scripts, and played all pleasing roles.
In 2021, Tong Yao won the 27th Magnolia Award for Best Actress with "Thirty Only".
When she took the stage to receive the award, Tong Yao excitedly delivered her own acceptance speech and thanked the crew.
However, according to the audience's ideas, Tong Yao should perhaps be most grateful to her husband Wang Ran.
The producer of "Thirty Only" is Shanghai Lemon Film and Television Media Co., Ltd., and Yikai Capital, Tong Yao's husband Wang Ran, is the exclusive financial adviser of Lemon Meng Film and Television.
The producer of "Big River" is SMG Shangshi Pictures, and coincidentally, Wang Ran has also spoken at the SMG Film and Television Forum.
After combing through these relationships, "Who sees and doesn't say a word about Wang Ran Niu X!" ”
However, even the best capital must have the strength to pick up, if Tong Yao does not have any acting skills, even if Wang Ran is hard-pressed, I am afraid that he will not be able to achieve his current achievements.
However, if she wants to be recognized by the public, Tong Yao also needs to continue to improve her acting skills, hoping that she can also rely on her own efforts in the future to walk out of her own acting path.
