On May 23, 2023, the 18th Huabiao Awards Ceremony came to an end. The lowest-looking queen in history was born, she is Ren Suxi.
After holding the Huabiao Award, her acting skills are undoubted, but her appearance makes her known as the "donkey face queen".
The growth path of the small town girl has not been smooth
On June 1, 1988, Ren Suxi was born in Laizhou, Shandong.
His father liked to play erhu, and Ren Suxi developed a strong interest in art at an early age under his father's influence. His father was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 10.
The father who could support a world for Ren Suxi fell. My mother did her best for my father and did not hesitate to borrow money. But her father could not bear to drag his wife and daughter down and chose to give up treatment.
After only one year of his father's fight against cancer, Ren Suxi's childhood turned upside down. After the death of her father, her mother could not withstand the pressure of the creditor to come to the door every day, and took Ren Suxi and her sister to remarry in a hurry, and her stepfather was partial to her stepsister and stepbrother, and her mother could only persuade her and her sister to endure a little, it can be said that Ren Suxi in her youth has long tasted the warmth and coldness of the world.
At the age of 17, she went against her mother's expectations to give up her teacher training to take the art examination alone and was admitted to the directing department of the Central Academy of Drama. In her sophomore year, by chance she came across a stage play and shined.
She was originally a directing student, and by mistake she was destined to become an actor in the drama "The Beginning of Man". This work won three awards in the intramural competition in one fell swoop. This is undoubtedly an incentive for Ren Suxi.
In the same year, she participated in her first film "The Eighth Clay Man", knocking on a window on the big screen for herself.
As we all know, an actor's first card is always appearance. Ren Suxi obviously did not have this card in his hand. In the early years of her debut, her acting career was not smooth, and for four years from 2007 to 2011, she only participated in one stage play and one drama.
They are the stage play "Tang Bohu Dotting Autumn Fragrance" directed by Guo Degang and the drama "Three People Can't Work" directed by Li Guoxiu. The two dramas made her familiar in front of the audience, and although they did not make a substantial leap in her career, her excellent performance was recognized by two directors and small circles in the industry. Guo Degang even wanted to break his rule of not accepting female disciples.
The real turning point came in 2012, when she came into contact with the absurd drama "Donkey Gets Water" co-written and directed by Zhou Shen and Liu Lu, and played the heroine Yiman who has a variety of appearances and styles but is simple and cute inside. He performed this drama for four years and appeared more than 200 times.
From the first few spectators, to the later votes are hard to find. "Donkey Gets Water" exploded in the drama circle, and Ren Suxi was also named the "Little Queen of Theater".
In October 2014, Ren Suxi, Dong Bo and Wang Ge participated in "Once Upon a Time in the Northeast" directed by Rao Xiaozhi and played the heroine Gao Huan in it.
In the same year, Li Yang, her lover who had been silently accompanying her, proposed to her with flowers in his hand, and Ren Suxi walked into the palace of marriage hand in hand with him. Many actresses will choose to return to their families and give up their careers after marriage.
However, Ren Suxi, who has a double harvest of career and love, did not stop there. In 2015, Ren Suxi cooperated with Dong Bo, Wang Ge and Rao Xiaozhi to direct the second drama "Stupid".
In 2016, the drama "Donkey Gets Water" was adapted into a movie of the same name, and Ren Suxi participated as the female lead and won the Tencent Video Starlight Awards New Film Actor of the Year Award.
In 2017, the heroine of the film "Donkey Gets Water" "Zhang Yiman" once again made Ren Suxi the most popular role at the 14th Guangzhou College Student Film Festival. Since then, the big screen has completely opened its doors to Ren Suxi. Film and television invitations poured in.
In 2018, the comedy movie "Nameless" was released, in which Ren Suxi played Ma Jiaqi, a high-ranking paraplegic woman. A character with a complex heart and a hot personality, but who spends his days with a wheelchair and can only communicate with the audience through speech and facial expressions.
The first time he appeared, he was mired in scandal
Although this movie did not let her win the award, it made her a god for a scene of urinary incontinence, and even let the audience hotly discuss whether this scene was really peeing on the Internet with fake acting skills.
This is undoubtedly an affirmation of Ren Suxi's acting skills. Everyone praised him one after another, even if he only relied on facial expressions to act, he beat most of the little fresh meat fairies in the entertainment industry. The popularity of "The Nameless" remains high, and the famous scene is a god.
The wonderful performance with high difficulty and high completion shut up those who made fun of her appearance. No one laughed at her anymore, and the plastic surgery acting skills made the film actor Ren Suxi in the limelight for a while and embarked on a small peak of his career.
But the rollover also came so suddenly, in 2019, "Nameless" just let Ren Suxi gain a foothold in the film industry. She was exposed for cheating on her ten-year-old actor and male colleague Dong Bo because of a video.
In the video, Ren Suxi and Dong Bo drink milk tea with the same straw and then return to the hotel hand in hand, and their behavior is quite intimate. And the crew is also accustomed to this, and it seems that they have known that the relationship between the two is not simple.
"One stone stirs up a thousand waves". Dong Bo's ex-wife and friend personally tore people apart, accusing Suxi and Dong Bo of both betraying the family. They were married for two years and cheated within marriage for one year.
Ren Suxi intervened in his friend's ten-year long-distance running to achieve a positive marriage, and angrily accused him of being unworthy of the position, and there would be disaster. Later, the main owner Ma Qiya also posted an article confirming the matter, saying that her marriage broke down precisely because Ren Suxi seduced Dong Bo during filming, because she discovered that something was wrong in her marriage as early as before divorcing Dong Bo in 2017.
At the same time, Ren Suxi's ex-husband Li Yang was also hit hard by this revelation.
Before the scandal was broken, he always thought that it was because of the incompatibility of the two personalities that caused problems in the marriage relationship, from classmates to colleagues to lovers along the way to support each other, and the marriage of mutual companionship lasted only two years and ended hastily.
Li Yang divorced Ren Suxi peacefully in 2016. He even took the fault on himself. I think that I am not good enough, not good enough, and can't keep up with Ren Suxi's footsteps, so I failed to keep her.
Looking back half a year later, his ex-wife separated from him without warning and insisted on divorce. Just leaving him with a sentence of "I'm sorry for you" seems to be able to confirm Ren Suxi's cheating in marriage from the side.
Dong Bo's ex-wife's revelation made Li Yang understand that the truth of the breakdown of his marriage with Ren Suxi was a betrayal, and he was once so angry that he was deaf in both ears, and he still needs antidepressant treatment in his hometown. Even suffering from affective stress disorder and inability to live with others. Can only be sick and single.
The scandal made Ren Suxi's reputation plummet, and netizens' angry scolding and ridicule surged like a wave. Netizens accused him of knowing three things, cheating in marriage, and inferior character, and even asked radio and television to ban him as a bad artist.
And Ren Suxi chose cold treatment and did not respond much to this. She blocked out the outside world and focused on the acting career she loved. Precipitate it and polish the work.
Ren Suxi used strength to reverse the negative image
It has to be said that she is smart. Wave after wave of updates on hot spots in the Internet era. Her cheating scandal hung on the hot search terms and disappeared within a few days.
In 2020, Ren Suxi returned to the audience's vision with the movie "Me and My Motherland". The role of Fang Min in "Me and My Motherland" won the 7th Wenrong Award for Best Film Actress for Ren Suxi.
In the same year, she was nominated for Best Actress at the 33rd Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards for her role as the urban female Momo in the movie "Half a Comedy".
Although she passed by the film industry's heavyweight award Golden Rooster Movie Queen, her Momo won her the 27th Huading Award for Best Actress in a Chinese Film and the 15th China Changchun Film Festival Golden Deer Award for Best Actress.
With three Best Actress Awards, Ren Suxi's career reached the peak. She convinced the audience with her superb acting skills. Perhaps the sudden scandal was just a touchstone for Ren Suxi to temper her.
However, every word and deed of public figures affects ordinary people and even fans. Although Ren Suxi with her own works, gorgeous Feisheng seems to have come out of the scandal, but the labels of "mistress" and "green tea" are still clinging to her.
Every time there is a hot search on Ren Suxi-related news, it is inevitable that some people in the comment area will still mention the derailment between Ren Suxi and Dong Bo.
In 2023, actor Ren Suxi will be 35 years old. Today, she is already a recognized powerful actor in the industry. Winning the award is soft, and the TV circle and film circle have blossomed. Her success is inseparable from her experience.
In a short and happy childhood, her father, who accompanied her for only ten years, planted the seeds of love for the stage in her heart.
Under the fence, she was deliberately ignored by her stepfather, silently endured grievances for her mother, and tasted the cold and warm childhood of the world gave her a tough character and a sensitive heart, allowing her to keenly and accurately perceive various rich and subtle emotions.
The ten years of silent cultivation in the early stage of her acting career honed her acting skills and put a protective shell called blunt sensitivity on her sensitive heart.
So that she can withdraw from the invective of the melon-eating masses, let go of all interference, block out external sounds, maintain her own mentality, and focus on her work.
