In 2014, during the Spring Festival, under the wild bombardment of his family for several days, Dong Yong completely surrendered his weapons and surrendered.
Early in the morning, he wore a suit prepared for him by his sister-in-law, tied a dark blue polka-dot tie with great interest, and glanced left and right in the mirror, just feeling awkward, thinking: This is much more difficult than filming.
He rubbed for half a day and did not want to move, just like the "big girl" who sat in the flower palanquin for the first time, and the sister-in-law was stunned to press his head and pinch him to the hotel where he was dating.
At the first meeting, Zheng Jiayan had a neat short hair, a soft cashmere coat on her body, and a purple square scarf around her neck, lining her face more and more beautifully, although she did not apply powder, but it was as bright as an autumn moon.
Mixed in the entertainment industry for many years, Dong Yong, who prides himself on seeing beautiful women, his heartbeat can't stop accelerating, and he is more than forty years old, how he did not expect that he would fall in love at first sight, and could not help but sigh: life is more wonderful than drama!
First, the spring of the "bastard boy"
In 1968, Dong Yong was born in a military family in Hangzhou, he was the oldest in the family, there was a sister and an older brother, his parents were veterans who had participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and the family education was quite strict.
When he was a child, Dong Yong had his brother and sister standing up to the sky, always running into trouble, and was a famous "bastard boy" in ten miles and eight townships, and he had never suffered from his father's "fried chestnuts".
Later, due to the busy work of his parents, his brother was sent to the boarding school early to study, leaving his 9-year-old sister at home to take care of himself, and his sister became Dong Yong's "little mother", and the relationship between the two was particularly intimate.
However, his learning was a mess, but he still gave his parents a headache, and he had to plan far-reaching and find a way to eat.
At that time, Dong Yong often went to his brother's troupe to watch plays, and occasionally he could imitate one or two bridge sections, but he was wonderful, plus his body grew strong, and it was a good material for learning to play carefully.
At the age of 10, when she caught up with the China Drama Academy to enroll in Hangzhou, her sister immediately signed up for her brother and dragged him, who had no experience, to the examination room.
Sure enough, with his strong plasticity, this boy stood out from 500 people and became one of only 9 students enrolled in the China Drama Academy, admitted as a small martial artist, and officially began his career in art.
Recalling that year, how a "bitter" word was obtained, so far, Dong Yong was most afraid of the "rattan stick" in the master's hand, hanging legs, turning over his head, taking the big top, which was a little lazy, it was a meal of skin and flesh, and the pain was so painful that his hair stood up, and now the vine stick has been lost.
After 7 years of studying art from home, Dong Yong overcame loneliness and hardship and grew into a real Peking Opera actor, the best of which was "Three Forks", and he sang 200 times a year.
In 1985, after graduation, Dong Yong was assigned to the Hangzhou Peking Opera House, receiving a monthly salary of 82 yuan, and his work was stable and decent, which made his parents very pleased.
As soon as he entered the troupe, because of his excellent opera skills, he served as the male number one in the Peking Opera "New Dragon Play Phoenix", and the scenery was infinite.
In the same year, in the newly edited historical drama "Yue Yun", Dong Yong also did behind-the-scenes dubbing work for an actor who sang Peking Opera, which was also his first contact with the creation of film and television dramas.
The days were lived in such a step-by-step manner, not much better, but there was no trouble, he pedaled a two-eight bar every day, shuttled through yan'an road, and after work, he lay down in the dormitory, and the day passed like this.
In his early 20s, he squandered a lot of time, playing almost all day, without any ideas about the future, until he went to Europe with the troupe to perform, and he found that he could live like this.
At that time, Hong Kong movies flowed into the mainland, and Jet Li's "Shaolin Temple" was like a thunderclap on the ground, exploding the glorious era of Chinese kung fu films, and also attracting a group of fanatical "martial arts fans", including Dong Yong.
In the martial arts film market, Dong Yong, who knows both kung fu and acting, is a piece of fragrant food, and like Yu Rongguang, he gave up Peking Opera, threw himself into the film and television circle, started a martial arts business, and took a high salary of 400 yuan per month to live a dashing life.
Later, he participated in the first TV series "Manjiang Hong", after the film was broadcast, looking at himself in the camera, Dong Yong got goosebumps, holding the idea of not scaring the audience, he decided not to be an actor.
After that, Dong Yong worked as a salesman, sang in a song hall, practiced stalls in the night market, and did not toss out, and in collusion with friends, he opened an advertising company.
In 4 years, he managed the advertising agency and made a lot of money, but he just couldn't be happy.
The sister saw her brother's thoughts and encouraged him, "Do what you like, don't leave regrets for this life."
In 1996, the 28-year-old Dong Yong came to Beijing from Hangzhou and officially became a North Drifter.
2. Professional police households
Dong Yong has been reading books in Beijing for the past 7 years, and when he returns here again, he only feels that the dumplings of fennel are more fragrant, but when life is no longer smiling, he is a little overwhelmed.
All the passion was shot by the rejection sound again and again, in order to survive, he could only remember on the spot, move props, and act as a stand-in, and at the poorest time, he only had 10 yuan in his pocket, could not pay the rent, and could not afford to eat.
Fortunately, the kind Liu Dan took him in and let him eat and drink for a month, Liu Dan was the actor who played Xiangfei in "Huan Zhu Gege", but when he was 28 years old, he was killed by a car accident, so that Dong Yong had no place to repay the favor.
In 1998, while filming the TV series "Qingming on the River", Dong Yong met Li Chengru, the first Bole ----.
At that time, Dong Yong was a soy sauce character in the play, and Li Chengru was already a big name, because he loved Peking Opera, he chatted with Dong Yong and learned that the other party studied under Yang Changxiu, and said with great joy in his heart: "Your boy is an expert."
Two years later, director Xu Qingdong invited Li Chengru to star in the criminal investigation drama "Six Groups of Serious Cases", playing the male number one "Zeng Keqiang" in the play, but the male number three in the play was delayed, and Xu Qinglai demanded that this role must be able to resist beatings and falls.
He and the producer were undecided between the 3 male actors, but Li Chengru unexpectedly recommended the eighteen-line small actor Dong Yong, and various soft and hard bubbles to win the role of the sharpshooter "Jiang Han" for Dong Yong.
As a criminal police officer born as a scout, Jiang Han is a righteous man, brave and strategic, a duck tongue hat, a sniper rifle, the courage to crush all evil forces, and become a well-deserved good policeman in the hearts of the audience.
And Dong Yong also became popular all over the country with this role, and this year, he was 32 years old.
After that, "Black Hole" cooperated with Chen Daoming, "Red Spider 2" with Gao Hongliang, "Absolute Control" and other film and television dramas with Wang Xuebing made Dong Yong embark on the road of "police professional household" from then on.
However, the good times are not long, since 2004, police, cases, espionage TV series, no longer liked by the market, but instead invested in idols, IP dramas, a large number of new generation of actors have emerged, seriously squeezing the living space of the actors of the main drama.
In those years, Dong Yong once fell into a situation where there was no drama to shoot, and later Jet Li advised him to learn English and go to Hollywood, but in the end he gave up this idea.
However, the leak in the house happened to rain overnight, and the sister there suddenly spread bad news, and was checked for bleeding cancer and unfortunately died, this news became the last straw to crush Dong Yong, and the "little mother" who loved him since he was a child left, which made him feel extremely sad inside.
It was not until 2016 that Dong Yong returned to the audience's vision with the large-scale historical drama "Marshal Peng Dehuai".
When they learned that they played the protagonist "Peng Dehuai", their parents, who were soldiers, were excited and solemnly told their son, "We must play the big hero in our hearts."
Compared with the version created by Zong Liqun and Ding Yongdai, "Peng Dehuai" played by Dong Yong has the ferocity of a soldier and plays the momentum of a generation of generals swallowing mountains and rivers to the fullest.
With this role, Dong Yong was also nominated for the Feitian Award for Outstanding Actor, and his acting skills were greatly affirmed by the industry.
After that, he cooperated with Chen Jianbin and Hao Ping in the TV series "Trident", playing an old policeman who is about to retire "Big Stick", in the play, he is armed with force, deterring black and white, and impressing the audience.
This year, Dong Yong was 52 years old, once again shaping the image of a righteous policeman, and since then, from the film police, patrol police, captain to the chief, Dong Yong has acted over and over again, from entering the police to retirement.
Dong Yong was very proud of the "police professional household" label that the audience labeled him, saying: "I am glad that I can play a policeman for a lifetime, which is my favorite role and profession."
Third, be forced to meet true love
"I'm lucky enough to meet my current wife, who brought me happiness and filled my life," said the tough guy who wanted to get to know the woman behind him when he first confessed affectionately to the media.
In fact, Dong Yong once had a marriage of up to 10 years, his ex-wife was his first love, gentle temperament, very good to get along with, the two loved warmly at the beginning, Dong Yong also invested a lot.
However, when he was young, for the sake of his career, he ran around for many years, snubbed his wife at home, resulting in the weakening of the relationship between the two, and after Dong Yong's unsuccessful retention, he peacefully broke up in 2006.
After the divorce, Dong Yong could not let go of his nostalgia for a long time, and he suffered from serious fear of marriage, and since then he has no longer touched his feelings, refused all heterosexual social interactions, and completely cut off the relationship with women.
The idea that the younger son insisted on not marrying, so that the old parents were very worried, and they called at both ends of the three days to persuade the son to remarry, but Dong Yong had already made up his mind and only planned to hold his dog and live forever.
In 2014, the Spring Festival, Dong Yong returned to Hangzhou, but unexpectedly the brother and sister-in-law put a "Hongmen banquet" waiting for him, knowing that his brother had a good amount of alcohol, several relatives took turns to fight, and finally poured him into a five-way puzzle, and faintly agreed to his sister-in-law to go on a blind date.
The blind date is chosen by the sister-in-law, the girl named Zheng Jiayan, 9 years younger than Dong Yong, looks dignified and atmospheric, is also a graduate student of the China Academy of Opera, and after graduation, she worked as a physical teacher in the Hangzhou Peking Opera Troupe.
Because she has been busy with her studies, the 37-year-old is still in the middle of the boudoir, and later, as she gets older, she also lends the criteria for choosing a mate, and divorced men can also be considered.
Under the pressure of his sister-in-law, Dong Yong reluctantly went, originally planned to chat casually, find a reason to leave, but fate is destined, this red rope has long been tied by the old man of the moon.
The first time they met, Dong Yong was completely taken down by Wen Wan's intellectual Zheng Jiayan, and at the age of 46, he couldn't imagine that he would be like a little boy, blushing and beating, and didn't know what to do.
After returning from the blind date, the family chased after him and asked him how he felt, only to see him smile and say nothing, and his parents watched the drama and stopped asking questions.
In the following days, Dong Yong flew from Beijing to Hangzhou many times, fiercely pursuing Zheng Jiayan, and later, when he went out to shoot a drama, he also threw his usually precious dog to Zheng Jiayan's care, and the relationship between the two gradually warmed up.
He has always been very enterprising, and he actually left Beijing, where he has lived for more than 20 years, to live in Hangzhou, first, to support his girlfriend's work, and second, to stay with his girlfriend.
In August 2014, Dong Yong chartered a cruise ship in the West Lake, and a man who had not played romantic for many years held flowers in his hand for the first time, held a diamond ring high, and with the beauty of green willows and green lotuses, formally proposed to Zheng Jiayan.
The moment his wife nodded in agreement, Dong Yong's heart was filled with a trace of sweetness.
In 2014, On December 28, the two held a grand wedding in Hangzhou, at the wedding banquet, Dong Yong announced the good news of his wife's pregnancy, which can be described as double happiness at the door, and happiness is self-evident.
Fourth, tough guys are also tender
Since beating his wife pregnant, Dong Yong did not dare to be sloppy for a moment, he pushed off a lot of work, took care of his wife closely, never missed her one of her obstetric examinations, took the initiative to quit smoking and alcohol, and developed a regular routine, just to better take care of his wife.
In 2015, his daughter was born, 47-year-old Dong Yong was officially promoted to father, the moment he picked up his daughter, his heart was about to warm, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Why didn't I meet you earlier and get married early!" ”
In the days that followed, Dong Yong incarnated as a "three good men", he could not cook, he also began to buy recipes to learn to cook, personally cooked soup for his wife, and fed his wife every day without heavy samples, resulting in her weight has been difficult to lose.
And the daughter is simply Dong Yong's heart meat, every day to stare at her eight hundred times is not enough, feeding, bathing, changing diapers, all of which he did himself, this in the past, he did not dare to think that he would take the initiative to do this.
Sure enough, it was enough to conquer a man and give him a daughter.
Over the years, Dong Yong has gradually focused on the family, most of the time is spent with his wife and daughter, even if he takes over the play, he is not willing to run far, and the rhythm of one or two plays every year is only two or three months in the crew each time.
When not filming, he took on all the trivial things in the family, going from his wife to work every day, sending his children to kindergarten, going to the farmer's market to buy vegetables, going back to cooking, cleaning up the housework, and waiting for his wife and children to come home.
Once, his daughter had a fever in the middle of the night, dong Yong in order to let his wife sleep more, he drove his daughter to the hospital alone, and it was dawn when he tossed it.
The two have been together for 8 years, in a complex entertainment circle, Dong Yong has always been clean and self-righteous, and the financial power of the family is under the control of his wife, giving Zheng Jiayan a sense of security and spoiling.
For his daughter, Dong Yong has his own set of education scriptures, adhering to a set of free-range management, as long as the child is happy, let her grow savage under her own harbor.
Today, at the age of 53, he lives a simple and happy life, often sharing interesting daily life with his daughter on social platforms, and the little girl looks innocent and cute, especially likable.
Throughout his life, Dong Yong lived a happy life accompanied by Zheng Jiayan, and it was really a blessing to marry his wife.
