Preface:
At the age of eight, he went to the Shaolin Temple alone to learn martial arts, growing from a penniless poor boy to a big star worth more than 100 million, but let Gazi Xie Mengwei uncover the "fig leaf"!
Divorced from his ex-wife Ma Rong for only 7 years, the current situation of the two can be called a cloud of mud, he used his life to explain what is the real fool has a fool's luck.
"In the Octagon Cage" broke 1 billion in only 7 days after its release, Wang Baoqiang used his strength to hit the face capital, many bigwigs in the entertainment industry came out to stand, even Ma Rong regretted it.
1. Kung Fu Kid
The protagonist of our story today: Wang Baoqiang, born in 1982 in Xingtai, Hebei, his family is an ordinary peasant family, and his parents rely on farming to make a living.
Due to the economic poverty of his family, he can only wear the clothes left over from his brother and sister, and like most children in the countryside, he has followed his parents to work in the fields since he was a child.
If this situation continues, when Wang Baoqiang becomes an adult, he will marry a wife and have children, work hard for his family, and live an ordinary and happy life.
However, due to the release of a movie, Wang Baoqiang's life was completely changed, and this year starring the kung fu emperor Jet Li, "Shaolin Temple" was popular all over the country.
This movie set off a kung fu craze, making countless teenagers fascinated by the Shaolin Temple, and Wang Baoqiang said after watching this drama that he wanted to go to the Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts and become a kung fu star like Jet Li.
At that time, he was very naïve, thinking that as long as he went to the Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts, he could make movies and become a big star, and then he could make a lot of money and live a good life.
When he was 8 years old, Wang Baoqiang went to the Shaolin Temple alone, and the Shaolin Temple was different from what he imagined, and the life inside was too bitter, but Wang Baoqiang kept gritting his teeth and persevering.
Until later, a senior brother told him that the movie "Shaolin Temple" was only filmed in Shaolin Temple, not in Shaolin Temple at all, even if he learned kung fu, he could not film.
This sentence hit him very hard, Wang Baoqiang wanted to give up several times, but remembering his grand ambition before going out, he broke his teeth and swallowed it into his stomach.
In 2000, Wang Baoqiang took his remaining 100 yuan to Beijing, the gathering place of young people's dreams, and he went to the gate of the Beijing Film Studio to squat and live, and did not harvest for several days.
In order to maintain his life, Wang Baoqiang had to go to the construction site to work, but he did not give up his dream, and from time to time he went to the door of Beijing Film Studio to take a look.
As the saying goes: "Opportunities are always left to those who are prepared", he finally waited for the opportunity to run the trick, in order to let more directors remember himself, he had to show his kung fu hard.
During this low period, Wang Baoqiang endured too much ridicule, some people said that he was not good-looking, and he did not win a wushu championship like Jet Li.
No matter how much he was wronged outside, Wang Baoqiang never called home, and in 2002, he met his first nobleman.
Li Yang is preparing to make the movie "Blind Well", a film that reflects the life of miners, many shots need to be shot 100 meters deep under the mine, during the shooting of the mine collapse caused the death of two miners, most of the staff fled the scene, but Wang Baoqiang stayed.
After the release of the movie "Blind Well", Wang Baoqiang won the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer, and his interpretation path began to be smooth.
In 2004, Wang Baoqiang participated in the movie "No Thief in the World", director Feng Xiaogang hired Andy Lau, one of the four heavenly kings, and Liu Ruoying, who had the title of diva, this drama made Wang Baoqiang famous.
In 2010, Wang Baoqiang and Xu Zheng's "People on the Road" cooperated with Wang Baoqiang to stand at the peak of his life, and the subsequent Thailand was even more powerful, with a box office of 1.26 billion, setting the highest box office record in the Chinese film industry at that time.
2. Bitterness and pleasure in life
In order to repay Feng Xiaogang's kindness, Wang Baoqiang would give Feng Xiaogang some of the millet he grew every year, and when he first saw his idol Andy Lau, he knelt down for Andy Lau due to excitement and nervousness.
What was even more surprising was that Andy Lau also knelt down to Wang Baoqiang after seeing Wang Baoqiang's behavior, and at this time he realized that he would also be respected.
At the same time, Liu Ruoying also recognized Wang Baoqiang as his godbrother, and Liu Ruoying's care for Wang Baoqiang made him, a wanderer who had been wandering for many years, feel love without blood for the first time.
It is well known to everyone is Wang Baoqiang's marriage, when his ex-wife Ma Rong cheated on his agent Song Zhe, and the two conspired to transfer Wang Baoqiang's property, which once led Wang Baoqiang to borrow money to fight a lawsuit.
Now that seven years have passed, the lives of the two are simply worlds apart, and it can be seen from the children they each raised that their daughter followed Ma Rong and their son followed Wang Baoqiang.
When he did not divorce Wang Baoqiang, Ma Rong was in charge of the family's financial power, and he gave his children the last in food and clothing, and the divorce was still unrepentant to show off his wealth.
Under the influence of this concept, her daughter wore heavy makeup at a young age, and even when Wang Baoqiang's mother died, Ma Rong did not let her daughter come back to send her mother on the last journey.
In contrast, looking at the life of Wang Baoqiang and his son, he attaches great importance to his son's education, and he hopes that his son will be spiritually rich than material pile.
No matter how busy he is, Wang Baoqiang will find time to teach his son, and Wang Baoqiang will never intervene in his son's regular meetings with his ex-wife Ma Rong, and he respects any choice his son makes.
Seeing what he learned here, he will ask: "Wang Baoqiang, who came from a humble background, did not have outstanding looks and strong resources, why could he achieve so much?" ”
Simply summarized in two words: sincerity, since he stepped into the social trick, he has always insisted on the dream in his heart, and when he meets someone who helps him, he knows Entu in his heart.
In the filming crew, he was the one who was the most willing to give, and in order to present the best effect to the audience, he was injured many times without any complaints.
After he filmed "Big Trouble", the response to the drama was mediocre after its release, and he was even named the director of the Golden Broom, he not only appeared calmly on the award stage, but also apologized to the audience and promised to bring a good work.
It is precisely because of his sincerity that his newly released movie "In the Octagon Cage" became a hit, proving his strength with actions, but was touched by Gazi Xie Mengwei to uncover the "fig leaf".
Third, the "fig leaf" was unveiled
When preparing for this new film, Wang Baoqiang looked for people everywhere to pull investment, but after they learned that Wang Baoqiang's film was not a comedy route, investors withdrew their investment one after another, and questioned Wang Baoqiang's ability to be a director.
After investors withdrew their funds, Wang Baoqiang's funds were seriously short, and in desperation, Wang Baoqiang could only find his friend Chen Sicheng to borrow money, and Chen Sicheng decisively contracted all the investments in the later stage of the film.
"In the Octagon Cage" only seven days after its release, the box office exceeded the 1 billion mark, and the score was as high as 9 points, which is definitely a masterpiece in the audience's mouth.
The capital that once looked down on him was slapped in the face, and what is even more rare is that half of the entertainment industry took the initiative to promote movies for Wang Baoqiang, and his good brother Li Chen secretly starred behind his back without paying for the film.
After Liu Ruoying learned that Wang Baoqiang made a movie, she supported singing the theme song for the movie without saying a word, and Andy Lau did not hesitate to sing the promotional song for the movie.
Even Stephen Chow, who rarely appears, also promoted Wang Baoqiang on social platforms, and Wang Xun specially opened a Douyin account in order to promote a new movie for Wang Baoqiang, and sincerity is a must-move.
Just when the movie was selling, two people who touched porcelain appeared, and Ma Rong rubbed the heat regardless of his face, and did not forget to tell Wang Baoqiang not to forget his original intention.
Ma Rong's touch of porcelain is a small trouble, and Gazi Xie Mengwei is the real malicious intention, he threatened that Wang Baoqiang did not tell him when he made a movie, but let him help promote the movie.
Xie Mengwei also said that the new movie is a bad film, and also said that he had borrowed 100 million yuan to make a movie for Wang Baoqiang, but Wang Baoqiang turned his face and did not recognize people.
Wang Baoqiang's team did not respond to this matter, in fact, everyone knew what was going on in their hearts, it was just that Xie Mengwei was looking for the so-called heat.
After all, Wang Baoqiang's character has always been obvious to all, and when a flood occurred in Hebei, Wang Baoqiang immediately transported materials to the disaster area, and personally distributed the materials to the affected people.
Although in front of the screen, Wang Baoqiang's image of stupid roots is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but in reality he is a smart and honest man, and he never does anything to steal chickens and play tricks.
Epilogue:
Throughout Wang Baoqiang's road to fame, he has taken every step down-to-earth, which shows that fame and fortune are not the whole of life, and doing everything well is the meaning of life.
