Preface
Zhou Haimei's death has caused countless celebrities to post condolences.
But there was a person in it, which attracted the attention of countless people.
He is the roaring emperor Ma Jingtao who has "left the entertainment industry for seven years".
But why did he leave in the first place?
You must know that Ma Jingtao was known as Qiong Yao's first male protagonist back then!
Such a title is tantamount to "dragon robe plus", and it brings its own traffic everywhere!
In addition, Qiong Yao dramas are very popular all over the country, that is to say, as long as Ma Jingtao does not take the initiative to leave the entertainment industry, there will be banknotes in the account every day.
But why did he leave without hesitation?
In fact, these are closely related to the pain he has experienced.
01
In 1962, when Ma Jingtao was born, there was already a child in the family.
Just when he thought that he could harvest the love of his father and mother at the same time, his mother gave birth to two children "quickly".
As a result, Ma Jingtao, who was in the position of "sandwich", became a free-range child.
Therefore, the neighbors all felt that he must be a bad boy in the future.
But reality, slapped them hard.
After Ma Jingtao broke away from the key supervision of his parents, not only did he not learn badly, but he was proficient in baseball, painting, and singing.
When he was in high school, Taiwan was in the midst of the rise of Asian music, and countless young people were affected by the trend, and Ma Jingtao was one of them.
So, he immediately pulled a few classmates, formed a band, and sang around.
Just when he thought that he could become a Beechis band and make a name for himself, an accident happened!
Since several people were in the stage of going to school at that time, playing music was not a proper job in the eyes of parents.
As a result, the band was forced to disband.
And Ma Jingtao also picked up the mission of students, that is, to take the university entrance examination.
But the major he applied for was puzzling.
Ma Jingtao applied for the radio and television exam.
You must know that Taiwan's economy was in a period of rapid development at that time.
But everyone knows that if you want to make money, you have to study accounting.
But Ma Jingtao chose this major, and even went abroad to study drama for a year.
This is incomprehensible to outsiders.
But Ma Jingtao has his own ideas.
From childhood to adulthood, Ma Jingtao has belonged to the "three regardless" at home, but he did not let his life fall, but thrived.
And this requires him to have strong self-confidence, as well as fearless freedom.
It was also from this time that Ma Jingtao began to live for "freedom".
It's just a pity that freedom comes at a price.
02
After graduating from military service, Ma Jingtao became a Xi assistant for a television station.
At first, he thought that he would follow the promotion rules of the TV station, from "Xi assistant" to "station director".
But he was "unlucky" to see "something he shouldn't have seen".
When he was Xi, Ma Jingtao came into contact with actors for the first time.
Watching them perform on stage, I immediately remembered when I formed a band.
So, he immediately changed direction and started acting!
He's so free! even frighteningly free!
According to incomplete statistics, in the five years from 1984 to 1988 alone, Ma Jingtao starred in eight TV series "crazy".
You must know that at that time, Taiwan's TV series were not more than a dozen episodes now, but more than 30 episodes at every turn.
Even a Taiwanese TV series called "Bird Lai Bo and Thirteen Aunts" has been filmed for 2708 episodes, which can be said to be terrifying.
And Ma Jingtao paid so frantically, and he also got the due reward.
In 1993, Ma Jingtao took a two-pronged approach, starring in two Qiong Yao dramas "Plum Blossom Branding" and "Water and Clouds", which were in the limelight for a while and envied others.
It was from here that Ma Jingtao's "freestyle" acting skills began to spread among the community.
Ma Jingtao's acting has a characteristic, that is, he is powerful.
When participating in Cai Kangyong's show, Cai Kangyong once joked that he wouldn't be tired?
But Ma Jingtao's answer was full of freedom and honesty, and he said that acting hard is a pleasure.
Of course, this freestyle acting also caused a lot of "trouble" for other actresses.
For example, Liu Xuehua once said interesting things about himself and Ma Jingtao when they were filming.
He knew that Ma Jingtao would be more excited after entering the play, so he would put away all dangerous items before the performance.
However, freedom goes too far and it hurts.
03
What really makes Ma Jingtao painful is actually his love life.
In 1993, Ma Jingtao and his wife Tang Yun walked out of the household administration office hand in hand.
It's just that they are not married, but divorced.
The two have been married for three years and have a daughter, but Ma Jingtao is obsessed with his career, and he and his wife get together less and leave more, so they are still good at getting together and parting after all.
According to Taiwan media at the time, the two have been married for three years, and they have not held a wedding, have not held a banquet, have no wedding photos, and even during Tang Yun's pregnancy, Ma Jingtao was not around.
And the reason why the two held hands when they divorced was because Tang Yun didn't want to affect Ma Jingtao's career because of herself.
Perhaps Ma Jingtao was also guilty, and it wasn't until thirteen years later that he started his second marriage.
In 2006, Ma Jingtao and Wu Jiani, who was 21 years younger than him, got engaged.
But the two didn't make up their marriage until 2015, and their two sons were already able to play soy sauce at that time!
Maybe Ma Jingtao is still a little scared, and plans to wait for the marriage to be stable before holding the wedding in a down-to-earth manner.
It's a pity that it backfired.
In 2017, Ma Jingtao announced on social platforms that he and his wife Wu Jiani were divorcing, and their two sons lived with him.
A marriage ends without a problem.
With the end of the marriage, Ma Jingtao's career gradually "went out".
After 2005, Ma Jingtao can still maintain the speed of one drama for a few years.
After the divorce, he fell into a state of complete retirement.
It wasn't until June 2023 that "Journey to the East", which he filmed two years ago, was broadcast, which can be regarded as a little movement.
epilogue
Today's Ma Jingtao is 61 years old, looking back on his experience, there is a sentence to describe it: debauchery and love freedom.
But freedom comes at a price!
For example, he was excited for a while, and he "sticked" to other actresses and the like.
Someone who knows his character understands that he is such a person.
I don't know his personality, that is, I think he is "rubbing oil".
Therefore, as a celebrity, be sure to be mindful of your words and actions.
Today's Ma Jingtao has left the entertainment industry for many years, even on the short video platform, what he posts is some of his daily life.
But isn't that a kind of happiness?
