84-year-old Qiong Yao is a writer we are familiar with, and many post-70s, 80s, and 90s have seen "Qiong Yao Drama".
"Qiong Yao Drama" once led an era, and many hit dramas have become classics, such as "Deep Love and Rain", "Plum Blossom Branding", "A Curtain of Dreams", "Huanzhugege" and so on.
The heroines selected by Qiong Yao are all smiling and beautiful, not only beautiful as a flower, but also moving when crying, I see pity.
For example, Yue Ling, Liu Xuehua, Jin Ming, Yu Xiaofan, Chen Derong, Jiang Qinqin, Lin Xinru, Lin Fengjiao, Lin Qingxia, etc., which one is not a peerless generation, look back and smile Bai Meisheng.
The love she writes is passionate and unrestrained, and the male and female characters often love to die and live, which can be said to be "if you don't become crazy, you will become a demon; If you don't go crazy, you can't live."
Ma Jingtao, as a "Qiong Yao male star", often shakes the heroine's shoulders to "roar", perhaps because of the natural intensity of love to the depths, he can't help it, and he can't help himself.
Fei Yunfan, played by Liu Dekai, is also unspeakable, and in the face of Lu Ping, who does not love, he refuses to be ruthless and desperate.
Fei Yunfan said: "What you lost is a leg, but Ziling has lost her entire love."
In the face of Yiping and Ruping, He Shuhuan, who is full of emotions, was moved by 2 women, and was spit on by netizens as the "originator" of scumbags.
The mistress in "New Moon Gege" has a classic line: I'm here to join this family, not to break up this family?
In reality, Qiong Yao is also questioned as the "junior" in the throne, she loves vigorously in her life, and has 2 marriages and 1 son.
Qiong Yao once said: You (Ping Xintao) and I are both married twice, obviously you chased me desperately, why did you let me suffer grievances?
In 2019, Qiong Yao's husband Ping Xintao passed away, and the heartbroken Qiong Yao buried her husband and ended their 40-year marriage.
Lin Daiyu burial flowers, commemorating the dead love, Qiong Yao flower burial, commemorating the dead husband, reminiscing about the past, how much love and hatred, just like a river of spring water flowing to the east.
In the blink of an eye, Ping Xintao has been ill for 3 years, he left 560 million real estate, and the choice of his widow Qiong Yao is tearful.

In 1927, Ping Xintao was born in a wealthy family in Changshu, Jiangsu Province, as the only child in the family, Ping Xintao has been loved by thousands of people since he was a child.
Ping Xintao's father was a businessman in Shanghai in his early years, and the family did not worry about food and clothing, and also built a 2-story single-family villa.
Unfortunately, when Ping Xintao was in the fifth grade of primary school, the Sino-Japanese War broke out, and the domestic situation was turbulent, and Ping Xintao's father went bankrupt and became poor.
Ping Xintao's family can only move from the mansion to a dilapidated small house, and the whole family is crammed into a house of less than 10 square meters, and they have to curl up when sleeping.
Usually eating some white rice and putting some lard is already very luxurious.
Because he was poor, Ping Xintao's father became extremely irritable, often angry at his family, and waved his fist when he didn't agree.
Young Ping Xintao and Lin Wanzhen
Once Ping Xintao was sick, and his father took him to see a doctor and slapped him at the same time.
Ping Xintao's father said angrily: "Why are you sick, don't you know how poor our family is, do you know how expensive it is to see a doctor"?
A lot of unhappy things in this world are caused by lack of money.
Ping Xintao told himself that he must get rid of poverty, must live in a big house, and does not want to live such a frightening life again.
When Ping Xintao was 11 years old, on April 20, 1938, Qiong Yao was born in a scholarly family in Chengdu, Sichuan.
Qiong Yao's real name is Chen Zhe, and her father Chen Zhiping is a teacher at the school.
When Qiong Yao was young
Chen Zhiping, who was 27 years old at the time, was talented and gentle and liked 20-year-old female student Yuan Xingshu.
Yuan Xingshu came from a famous family, Hanlin appeared in the family, his uncle was the president of the bank, and his uncle served as a teacher of the Xuantong Emperor.
The door is not the right household, and the relationship did not develop very smoothly, until Chen Zhiping's father, who proposed marriage on behalf of his son, wrote a long letter to the woman's father.
Yuan Xingshu's father, when he saw Chen Zhiping's father's brilliant writing, felt that if there is a father, there must be a son, and the man comes from a scholarly family, so he agreed to this family affair.
Qiong Yao's parents met in Beijing Liangji Middle School, and in order to commemorate their love, they named Qiong Yao Chen Zhe, nicknamed Phoenix.
Chen Zhe later gave himself the stage name Qiong Yao, which comes from the Book of Poetry: Vote me for wood peaches, and repay Qiong Yao.
In the era when Qiong Yao was born, sons were generally preferred.
At that time, Qiong Yao's mother was pregnant with a dragon and phoenix fetus, but Qiong Yao's body was relatively weak, and she was born weighing only 4 pounds, and she did not weigh an empty water bottle.
The doctor couldn't help but say: Give up the girl, save the boy.
Yuan Xingshu, who was born in a famous family, did not give up Qiong Yao, she followed equality between men and women.
In this way, as soon as Qiong Yao was born, she stayed in the incubator for a month.
After marriage, Yuan Xingshu and Chen Zhiping had four children, Qiong Yao is the eldest daughter, and there are 2 younger brothers and 1 sister below.
In that era of war and chaos, Qiong Yao remembered that her family had been moving non-stop.
When Qiong Yao was 6 years old, once on the way to Guangxi with her family, Qiong Yao's two younger brothers and porter disappeared.
Qiong Yao's parents were too desperate, pulling Qiong Yao to jump into the river to commit suicide, 6-year-old Qiong Yao did not know what her parents were going to do, and cried in despair.
Perhaps it was Qiong Yao's cry that made her parents' conscience find that Qiong Yao's mother cried: "Can't die, we die, what should the phoenix do?" ”
Perhaps there is a providence in the underworld, after arriving in Guangxi, Qiong Yao's parents met the porter and 2 sons.
Qiong Yao felt that her childhood was very miserable, the Anti-Japanese War was won, and she encountered the Kuomintang-Communist War, and when she was 11 years old, her family ran to Taiwan.
Although Qiong Yao's father applied for an associate professor at Normal University, it is really not so easy to support a family of 6 with his father's Weibo salary alone.
Qiong Yao's mother, originally a young lady of Qianjin, likes to chant poetry and write poetry, dance and ink, but for the livelihood of the whole family, she has to bow to life, and she has to do all the dirty work.
Qiong Yao and mother
Qiong Yao loves literature, and when she was 9 years old, she published her first novel "Poor Young Youth" in Ta Kung Pao.
When Qiong Yao was 14 years old, she had already submitted articles everywhere, and when she was 16 years old, Qiong Yao, who was ignorant of love, had already written her first romance novel.
"Looking forward to the son becoming a dragon, hoping for the daughter to become a phoenix" is the wish of many parents, but it is a pity that Qiong Yao is the most unfavored child in the family.
Qiong Yao's younger brothers and sisters have very good academic performance, only Qiong Yao, seriously biased subjects, every time the mathematics test is 20 points, in the second year of junior high school, they still left the grade.
The excellence of her younger brothers and sisters makes Qiong Yao very inferior, and her sister scored 99 points in mathematics, which is sad, so that Qiong Yao, who often scores 20 points in mathematics, is embarrassed.
Extremely sensitive and fragile, Qiong Yao committed suicide twice in 3 years and was in a coma for a week before being rescued.
Qiong Yao's father is a historian who wrote a thick "General History of China", and her mother hopes to train the four children in the family to become college students.
But Qiong Yao is seriously biased and is not loved by her mother, so Qiong Yao has always been depressed, and the biggest complex in her life is to get the care of her parents.
In high school, Qiong Yao liked her Chinese teacher, and in the face of her parents' prejudice and lack of attention, only the language teacher praised Qiong Yao.
Qiong Yao's Chinese teacher is widowed, 25 years older than herself, and very knowledgeable and talented.
The loli girl liked the middle-aged uncle, but Qiong Yao's mother was resolutely opposed, and she ran to the school to make a big scene, and even sued the Education Bureau.
In the end, Qiong Yao's language teacher was dismissed and died of depression in 1979, perhaps because Qiong Yao was mistaken for life at first sight, and the later language teacher did not marry again.

On Pingxintao's side, the university was admitted to Shanghai Datong University, which "has Nankai in the north and Datong in the south".
After graduating from university, Ping Xintao successfully became an accountant in a fertilizer company, which can be regarded as a well-established civil servant.
At work, Ping Xintao met Lin Wanzhen, who was 3 years younger than him, and the dignified and enthusiastic Lin Wanzhen quickly attracted Ping Xintao's attention.
Lin Wanzhen
"Dan lips and teeth thin waist, reclining cage when sleeping. After all, the infatuation can't go away, and the weaving wants to expand and ponder. "
Lin Wanzhen's family is well-off, her father went to Japan in the early years, after returning to China, he opened a cloth shop in Shanghai, his mother gave birth to 4 boys, 4 girls and 8 children, Lin Wanzhen is the youngest child in the family.
Lin Wanzhen has many suitors around her, and in the face of Ping Xintao's pursuit, Lin Wanzhen clearly told Ping Xintao: "You are not my ideal object." ”
Lin Wanzhen, as the most beautiful woman in the company, Ping Xintao told herself: "If you want to marry, you must marry the most beautiful woman in the company."
Perhaps it was "Jin Cheng's golden stone is open", Ping Xintao's unremitting pursuit finally won Lin Wanzhen's heart.
Although there was a stable job, civil servants in those days were only a drop in the bucket, and even eating a bowl of beef noodles felt very luxurious.
Ping Xintao's dream is to live in a big house, get rid of poverty, and if he relies on a dead wage, Ma Yue can realize his dream in the Year of the Monkey.
Ping Xintao, who likes literature, founded "Crown" magazine on February 22, 1954.
Lin Wanzhen also contributed money and efforts, taking a lot of money from her mother's family to fund Ping Xintao.
At the beginning of the establishment of "Crown" magazine, there were only 2 employees, namely Ping Xintao and Lin Wanzhen.
A year later, on January 9, 1955, 28-year-old Ping Xintao and 25-year-old Lin Wanzhen walked into the palace of marriage.
After marriage, the couple Gense and Ming gave birth to 2 daughters and 1 son.
At the beginning of the establishment of "Crown" magazine, it has been in a state of slow sales, and shareholders have withdrawn their shares one after another, and have been on the verge of bankruptcy.
"Maxima is often there, but Bole is not often", if Ping Xintao is Bole, then Qiong Yao is Maxima.
At this time, Ping Xintao urgently needed an excellent "Maxima" to save his precarious "Crown" magazine.
In 1958, the fourth year of Ping Xintao's founding of "Crown" magazine, Qiong Yao did not have a comfortable life.
Qiong Yao has experienced the failure of her first love and failed the college entrance examination twice, Qiong Yao decided not to take the college entrance examination, but to spend her time on literary creation.
At this time, Qiong Yao met, Qingjun, who likes to write as much as her, and the two people are in agreement.
But Qiong Yao's love affair was opposed by her mother, who did not want her daughter to marry a poor boy.
This time, Qiong Yao did not compromise with her mother, but entered the palace of marriage with Qingjun in April 1959.
In the year of marriage, Qiong Yao was only 21 years old, Qingjun was 27 years old, and it only took 7 months for the two to get married from acquaintance.
Not long after marriage, Qiong Yao and his wife moved from Taipei to Kaohsiung, and soon Qiong Yao became pregnant.
When Qiong Yao was close to giving birth, Qingjun was sent abroad by the public, and by the time he returned to China, their son Chen Zhongwei was almost 1 year old.
I originally thought that if I got married, I could escape my original family, but I didn't expect that my husband often did not return at night and liked to gamble, resulting in poverty at home.
Under financial pressure, Qiong Yao took care of her son while writing novels and submitting articles.
Qiong Yao has successively submitted short stories "Lover's Valley", "Black Cocoon" and "Lucky Grass" to "Crown" magazine.
Qiong Yao's talent was finally discovered by Ping Xintao, who waited for so many years and finally waited for a Qiong Yao, and Ping Xintao asked Qiong Yao for a manuscript.
In 1963, Qiong Yao completed the novel "Outside the Window", which can be said to be Qiong Yao's semi-autobiography, which describes the lingering love story of Qiong Yao and her first love teacher.
The novel "Outside the Window" has become Crown's best-selling novel, and has been made into a movie twice, Lin Qingxia became famous through the movie "Outside the Window" and became the most dazzling superstar in the entertainment industry.
When the water is full, it overflows, the moon is full, there are good times and bad times in life, Ping Xintao founded "Crown" magazine for 9 years, and finally waited for Qiong Yao.
Qiong Yao then also submitted the novel "Smoke and Rain" to "Crown" magazine, which was also well received.
At that time, Sanmao was at home after school, sitting on the steps of the small courtyard at 6:30 every morning, waiting for the Crown magazine to be put into the mailbox.
Not only Sanmao, but also many students, simply went to the door of "Crown" magazine just to read Qiong Yao's novel.
Ping Xintao is the key person who changed Qiong Yao's fate, because of Ping Xintao, Qiong Yao became famous, and because of Ping Xintao, Qiong Yao became notorious.

In 1963, under the arrangement of Ping Xintao, Qiong Yao traveled from Kaohsiung to Taipei and was interviewed by a television station.
In the crowded train station, Ping Xintao recognized Qiong Yao at a glance.
Qiong Yao was curious: "How can you recognize me among everyone"?
Ping Xintao said with a smile: "I know it from "Outside the Window", I know it from "Six Dreams", and I know it from "Smoke and Rain"."
Ping Xintao also invited Qiong Yao to her home as a guest, Lin Wanzhen saw Qiong Yao for the first time, felt that she looked ordinary, looked soft and weak, and had to take care of children and write, and a little pity sprang up in her heart.
Who would have thought that many years later, Ping Xintao could say to Lin Wanzhen for the sake of Qiong Yao: You look strong, she looks weak, so I choose the weak Qiong Yao.
Lin Wanzhen
After Qiong Yao saw Ping Xintao, she had a little admiration for Ping Xintao, and Qiong Yao felt that Ping Xintao worked seriously and could write a beautiful art word, and the art word of the novel "Outside the Window" was written by Ping Xintao.
Qiong Yao became popular because of the novel "Outside the Window", but was not understood by her parents, because this novel belongs to Qiong Yao's semi-autobiography, which contains many descriptions of her parents.
Her parents rebuked Qiong Yao for not writing this novel, and in order to become famous, she did not hesitate to use her own family affairs for others to discuss.
Also because of the novel "Outside the Window", the marriage between Qiong Yao and her first husband Qingjun came to an end.
Qingjun does not support Qiong Yao's writing, often does not return at night, gets drunk late at night, does not pay attention to children, and has no enthusiasm for work.
On the night when Qingjun didn't go home, Qiong Yao often wondered: "He won't not come back all night, right?" He wouldn't be so cruel to me, was he hit by a car?"
Qiong Yao, who can't bear it, wants to divorce Qingjun, in their time, there are really few divorced people, and many people are holding the mentality of "marrying a chicken who is a chicken, marrying a dog who is a dog".
Qiong Yao advised her mother: "My marriage seems to be unsustainable, do I choose to maintain it, or choose to divorce"?
Qiong Yao's mother, although living in the old era, but thinking more avant-garde, she said: "A bad egg, you bite, you know that it is bad, do you still want to eat him"?
In 1964, 25-year-old Qiong Yao and 31-year-old Qingjun divorced, ending their four-year marriage.
After the divorce, Qiong Yao took her son and came to Taipei from Kaohsiung to start a life as a professional writer.
In the more than 40 years since, Qiong Yao has published more than 60 novels, which have been adapted into more than 50 movies, more than 600 hours of TV series, and more than 200 songs.
It is undeniable that Qiong Yao is indeed a talented woman who has influenced a generation.
After the divorce, Qiong Yao's relationship with Ping Xintao became more and more ambiguous.
Qiong Yao likes "purple shells", and Ping Xintao sent a crystal clear "purple shell".
The heroine in the novel likes dogs, and Ping Xintao immediately sent Qiong Yao a Beijing dog named "Snowball".
The heroine in Qiong Yao's novel sang a song called "Boat", and Ping Xintao would tell Qiong Yao that when the TV was turned on on on a few days of the month, there were singers singing "Ship" on TV.
Qiong Yao likes traditional Indonesian clothing, and Ping Xintao will find someone to customize a set for Qiong Yao.
At that time, Crown Magazine signed 14 full-time writers, only Qiong Yao, who really helped Ping Xintao make a lot of money.
If a certain issue of Qiong Yao's novel ends, then the second issue of Crown Magazine will be miserable, and Ping Xintao often chases after Qiong Yao and urges her to write.
At that time, the script of an episode of a TV series was 10,000 words, and Qiong Yao's 60-year-old popular TV series "Huanzhugege" was written to about 200 episodes.
In a single "Huanzhugege" alone, Qiong Yao wrote about 2 million words.
From the beginning of meeting Ping Xintao, Qiong Yao basically sat in front of the computer, and before there was no computer, Qiong Yao wrote by hand, writing that her fingers needed to be wrapped in gauze.
Qiong Yao and Ping Xintao can be regarded as mutual achievements in their careers, Ping Xintao gave "Crown" magazine and the best resources to Qiong Yao, and Qiong Yao wrote tirelessly.
One person writes, and one person is responsible for publishing and making movies and TV series.
For Qiong Yao, Ping Xintao said with gratitude: If it were not for Qiong Yao, the crown would not be what it is now, but without the crown, Qiong Yao is still Qiong Yao.
Paper can't contain the fire, and Lin Wanzhen found that there was ambiguity between Ping Xintao and Qiong Yao.
Ping Xintao leaves work 1 or 2 hours early every day, and then goes to Qiong Yao's house, and does not return to his home until late at night.
At this time, the heroines in Qiong Yao's novels are basically third parties, and they are from the perspective of sympathizing with third parties, but the ending is better.
After Lin Wanzhen and Ping Xintao got married, they have always played the role of a good wife and mother, and in order to cook the meals that her husband likes, she can go to many vegetable markets.
But Ping Xintao's heart has basically flown to Qiong Yao, once, Lin Wanzhen couldn't wait for her husband to come home late at night, so she finally summoned up the courage and called Qiong Yao.
Qiong Yao replied: You come and bring him back.
For Qiong Yao, Ping Xintao filed for divorce from Lin Wanzhen many times, and Lin Wanzhen, who was disheartened, had to leave Crown Magazine, who had been in charge of 10 years.
Ping Xintao and Qiong Yao's extramarital affair also moved from the underground to the stage, and every time he went abroad, Ping Xintao would buy a bunch of clothes for Qiong Yao.
Qiong Yao would also wear new clothes and ran to Ping Xintao and asked him if his clothes looked good.
In the face of her husband's betrayal, Lin Wanzhen, who was heartbroken, once wanted to jump from the triple bridge, but thinking of her 3 children, Lin Wanzhen did not do anything stupid.
As the original match, but heard her husband flirting with Qiong Yao on the phone, how painful Lin Wanzhen should have been at that time, maybe she had been hoping that her husband could change his mind.
Qiong Yao did not want to give up Ping Xintao, and even the curtains at home used Ping Xintao's favorite red.
Qiong Yao's love letter to Ping Xintao was warm and unrestrained.
She said to Ping Xintao: "Once I move my true feelings, I will crash my life into my feelings, it's late at night, and now you are lying in the arms of your wife and children, so why not."
But Ping Xintao, who has been afraid since childhood, is impossible to give up Qiong Yao's cash cow.
It was not until 1979, when Lin Wanzhen's youngest child was already in high school, that Lin Wanzhen agreed to divorce Heping Xintao.
Qiong Yao met Ping Xintao from the age of 25, during which the two people entangled for 14 years, until the age of 39 and Ping Xintao entered the palace of marriage.
After marriage, Qiong Yao's style of writing has changed greatly, not defending the third party as before, but transforming into maintaining the family.
This is also related to her own experience, after all, the material comes from real life.
Circled is Qiong Yao's only son
After becoming famous, Qiong Yao finally raised her eyebrows and exhaled, which also impressed her parents, Qiong Yao, as the eldest sister, also spent 400,000 Taiwan dollars for her two younger brothers to study at their own expense.
After the divorce, Lin Wanzhen remarried Secretary Wang, the director of the hospital, who was 12 years older than herself.
Secretary Wang has 5 children, all of whom are adults, and the original partner died of illness, and Secretary Wang is still good to Lin Wanzhen.
At the beginning, Ping Xintao did not take Lin Wanzhen to the honeymoon, Secretary Wang took her, and the two of them liked art very much, Secretary Wang liked to write brush writing, and Lin Wanzhen liked to draw.
Until 2007, the 89-year-old Secretary Wang died, and 77-year-old Lin Wanzhen also accompanied him for 28 years.
After marriage, Qiong Yao and Ping Xintao supported each other, and Qiong Yao helped Ping Xintao complete 3 dreams.
- The first dream is to help Ping Xintao's "Crown" magazine become bigger and stronger
- The second dream is to help Ping Xintao enter the film and TV series industry
- The third dream is to take Ping Xintao around the world
In 2016, 89-year-old Ping Xintao fell ill, suffered from Alzheimer's disease, and eventually lost all his memory and needed to rely on a respirator to maintain his life.
Because of Ping Xintao's illness, Qiong Yao and Ping Xintao's three children had a fierce quarrel.
Qiong Yao advocated the right to a good ending, feeling that Ping Xintao's body was irreversible, so it was better to give up the treatment and let Ping Xintao naturally end his life.
Ping Xintao and the original 3 children felt that as long as their father had a glimmer of hope, he should do his best to rescue him.
Because of Ping Xintao's illness, the relationship between Qiong Yao and her 3 stepchildren was very unpleasant, and in the end, Qiong Yao compromised and let Ping Xintao insert a nasogastric tube to maintain life.
Qiong Yao also wrote an open letter to Ping Xintao's three children, Ping Ying, Ping Heng and Ping Yun, apologizing to them while saying: People are doing, the sky is watching, don't be so cruel and vicious.
On May 23, 2019, Ping Xintao died at the age of 92 accompanied by his relatives, and his marriage with Qiong Yao also lasted 43 years.
The previous grievances and grievances also came to an end with the death of Ping Xintao, and Lin Wanzhen was also relieved, saying: "I forgive him and don't get angry."
Lin Wanzhen and Ping Xintao's daughter said: "Whether it was happy or unhappy in the past, it was because of my father, but now that he is gone, I hope everyone is well."
Before his death, Ping Xintao and Qiong Yao bought a 7-story villa "Keyuan" in Taipei, worth up to 560 million yuan, and they lived together in "Keyuan" for more than 30 years.
This villa is also quite romantic, with a glass roof, you can watch the stars and the moon together at night, Qiong Yao and Ping Xintao, and often hug and watch movies in the "Keyuan" video room.
Now that Ping Xintao has passed away, "Keyuan" is also old and needs to be renovated, and Qiong Yao has to move out of "Keyuan".
At present, the "Keyuan" villa where Qiong Yao lives is open for visits, and the decoration inside looks quite luxurious.
The novels written by Qiong Yao are basically loved by the male and female protagonists to die and live, but in this life, Qiong Yao is not lacking love.
When he was young, because of his poor academic performance, he was not valued by his parents, and he always acted as a transparent person in the family.
Married early, just to stay away from her original family, as a result, her first husband, did not support her writing, drank, and did not return home at night to protest.
After ending her first marriage, Qiong Yao fell in love with Ping Xintao who encouraged her to write, but unfortunately the other party was a husband with a wife.
Because of Ping Xintao, Qiong Yao bore the infamy of "Little Three", but a slap could not sound, for Ping Xintao, perhaps fame and career are more important, so he abandoned his wife and son and fell in love with Qiong Yao.
Wrote so many vigorous loves, Qiong Yao's life is inseparable from a "love" word, her story is really more bloody and wonderful than the TV series.
