In April, a worker posted a photo with actor Yao Gang in the background of the 10 million mansion Yao Gang was renovating.
Maybe you're unfamiliar with the name, but you'll feel familiar when you see his face.
Dai Li in "Lurking", Peng Ruixiang in "Little Aunt Duohe", and Zhao Huanghuang in "Sin Domain" are all classic characters created by him.
Yao Gang's acting skills are intricate, and some people even have unconscious hatred for him because he played a villain who was too successful.
Yao Gang, who is rich and beautiful and has acting skills, is still tall and handsome at the age of 53, so why is such an excellent person still without a wife and no children?
On August 3, 1970, in the vibrant harbor city of Dalian, Yao Gang was born.
Yao Gang's father is a public security officer, his uncle served in the army, and his mother is also a clerk.
He and singer Sun Nan live in the same compound, and there are many literary and artistic workers in the courtyard.
Influenced by them, from a young age, he developed a strong interest in acting.
Yao Gang, the youngest son of the family, was very pampered and learned of Yao Gang's idea of wanting to learn music. My father immediately prepared the violin for it.
After studying music for a while, Yao Gang realized that his talent was not in music. He began to try acting, but he did not expect to accidentally enter the Anshan Repertory Theater and start his acting career.
With the road of acting, Yao Gang became more and more smooth, and was successfully admitted to the acting department of Dalian Art Institute at the age of 15, and was seen by the director at the time of graduation and officially stepped onto the screen.
The fledgling Yao Gang accumulated a little popularity with his first play, which made him more determined to go on the road of actor.
Unfortunately, in the next two years, Yao Gang ran many tricks, but did not encounter a single opportunity to make him a blockbuster.
As time passed, Yao Gang gradually became confused until there was no scene to film.
Under the blow of reality, Yao Gang chose to return to his hometown. In order to live, Yao Gang threw all the money he had saved from years of work into a store.
Yao Gang was bold and cautious, and he chose to separate the upper and lower floors of the store. The upper floor operates a café restaurant only during the day, while the lower floor is open for a bar at night.
This model was very novel at that time, attracting many young people to consume, and Yao Gang's business also flourished.
Despite this, there has always been unwillingness hidden in his heart.
In an interview, he confessed: "Although opening a store has made me career, my dream is always acting. ”
So when the opportunity to star in "Shanghai Tango" appeared in front of him, Yao Gang did not look back and plunged into the road of actor again.
Starting acting again, Yao Gang carefully cherished every opportunity and painstakingly studied each role.
2008, a special year.
Yao Gang and Sun Feifei's costume drama "Peacock Southeast Flight" was broadcast. His delicate performance and deep digging into the characters are eye-catching.
In the same year, he once again surprised the public and starred in the TV series "Little Aunt Duohe" adapted from Yan Geling's novel, and his performance was a classic.
However, he did not stop. In "Sin Domain", despite playing the villain, his multifaceted performance is breathtaking. This work makes people completely remember the name - Yao Gang.
He is really popular, because the acting skills are too expressive. Once Yao had just gone to eat, and when the waiter poured tea, he saw that it was him, and immediately glared at him in anger, and finally rolled his eyes at him.
Another time, Yao just went out to take the car, suddenly felt that someone hit him in the back a few times, and when he turned his head, he saw an eldest sister angrily questioning him how could he be so bad, how could he harm people? It's ridiculous.
In 2009, when Yao Gang was filming "Non-Biological Sisters", he met an extremely important woman in his life - Wen Zhengrong.
The two play the male and female protagonists in the play, and they should have a good relationship. But in fact, the two met for the first time, and their impression of each other was not very good.
Yao Gang felt that Wen Zhengrong was too cold and strong; Wen Zhengrong, on the other hand, thought that Yao Gang was a bit arrogant and did not appreciate him very much.
The two behaved normally during the filming, but as long as the director shouted cut, they immediately got along with each other coldly.
Later, due to the need to adjust the script and lines, plus the director's reconciliation, the relationship between the two gradually eased and changed from strangers to friends.
Later, after getting along for a long time, Yao Gang found that although Wen Zhengrong looked lonely and strong, he was actually very soft and kind inside. This is actually very different from the role played by Wen Zhengrong in the play, and it also makes Yao Gang interested in her.
And Wen Zhengrong found out from the details of getting along that Yao Gang was a very meticulous and gentlemanly person.
The two began to meet up frequently, climbing mountains and walking the streets together to enjoy food, and the two hearts became closer and closer.
At that time, Yao Gang was nearly 40 years old, and his family was also looking forward to the two of them being able to achieve positive results, so Yao Gang also started the idea of getting married.
The two really love each other, but Wen Zhengrong is a very enterprising person, and she was also very moved when Yao Gang knelt.
But she knows that marriage brings not only the name of two people, but also the responsibilities that come with it.
She was also eager to study abroad and reach higher heights in her career, so she asked Yao Gang to give her another two years.
Yao Gang agreed, and both pounced on their careers.
Unfortunately, with the passage of time and the increase of work pressure, their time together has become more and more rare, and the two seem to become more and more strange.
Yao Gang tries to save it, but Wen Zhengrong still insists on her career and begged Yao Gang to give her some more time.
In the end, their relationship came to an end, and the two broke up peacefully.
The separation from Wen Zhengrong brought Yao Gang great pain, he couldn't get out for a long time, and Yao Gang, who had never smoked, also began to smoke, and the whole person was very decadent.
Time is the medicine to heal everything, and Yao Gang slowly walked out of this matter a few years after breaking up. But after this experience, he seems to look down on marriage a lot.
He puts his mind on his career, in addition to focusing on sports, self-disciplined and leisurely, and lives a very fulfilling and happy life.
In his heart, marriage must be carried out with the person he loves the most, not forced to complete a certain task, and must marry with the love in his heart.
He also once said, "I want to get married when I can grow old." When you meet me, you will tie up, and if you end it, you will not leave. ”
So later, the family gradually respected his ideas and did not force him to get married and have children.
The 53-year-old Yao Gang has experienced peaks and falls, and has tasted regrets when he has met happy love. After half his life, he is still the same self who loved acting and loved his family.
In any case, we hope that he can create more and more good characters, and we hope that he can achieve what he wants.
