Yin Tao was born in a military family, and both of her parents worked in the army's art troupe, so it can be said that art flows in her blood. At the age of 17, with her passion for drama, the girl was admitted to Chongqing Key Art School and began a three-year professional Xi.
The training opened Yin Tao's new horizons, and the bright lights of life on the drama stage, sometimes laughing and sometimes sad, gradually infected this girl from a serious family in the military camp.
At the age of 20, Yin Tao went to the next city and achieved the first result in the country and was admitted to the Performance Department of the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts for further study, and became a brother and sister with the famous Shen Teng.
In this school rich in red genes, the passionate opera and movies make Yin Tao have a soft spot for performing arts. Directors and professors are also optimistic about the prospects of this second-generation military student and excellent drama actor.
When she graduated in 2003, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) cultural and engineering system could be said to have laid out the red carpet for Yin Tao - the Television Art Center of the Political Department of the Air Force officially hired her and started the first stop of her career.
Yin Tao spent six years of fulfilling but not peaceful youth in art schools and military schools. When the aura of the "school flower" falls on the head of an introverted and calm girl, it is bound to attract countless peeping eyes and thoughtful suitors.
At the beginning, it was difficult for Yin Tao to adapt to such attention, and she would be so nervous that she would tremble all over her body just by taking acting classes, for fear that she would lose her mind if she was not careful.
Under the guidance of teachers and classmates, Yin Tao gradually learned to abandon distracting thoughts and concentrate on the role. Before graduating from university in 2003, she won many acting awards and role model titles for her interpretation of the Nightingale female image of "Bai Xuemei" in the drama "I'm Waiting for You in Heaven", and also laid a solid foundation for her future emergence in the entertainment industry.
However, there will be a clear dividing line between drama and reality. In 2005, 25-year-old Yin Tao married Shen Juncheng, the rich second generation of Chongqing who visited the crew, shortly after entering the society.
The two may be young and frivolous, or they may not fit each other, and the marriage ended hastily within a year, and ended almost as quickly as it began. As the first real love in life, it came suddenly and went awkwardly.
This undoubtedly brought strong confusion and loss to Yin Tao at that time.
The marriage that ended hastily made Yin Tao understand that it is not easy to run a good emotional family while having a smooth career in the entertainment industry. So since 2006, she has chosen to devote herself to her work.
With the assistance of director Gao Xixi, Yin Tao starred in several high-quality TV series, and her screen image gradually plumped, which also made her gain the reputation of "Xi Girl".
The debut of CCTV's Spring Festival Gala in 2010 was an important turning point. Since then, Yin Tao has begun to appear frequently in various popular film and television works. Her superb acting skills allowed the audience to witness the transformation from a reckless girl to a smart and intellectual woman.
Those years were the golden period of Yin Tao's career, and he repeatedly won TV drama performance awards. She has also become a leader among the popular little flowers.
However, when her career was in full swing, Yin Tao's emotional road was very bumpy. She has had scandals with football player Li Jinyu and actor Li Guangjie, and it is said that they are both in love, but they are not over when the marriage is approaching.
According to Yin Tao's close friends, the reason why Li Jinyu broke up with her was that Yin Tao was unwilling to give up her career to start anew; And Li Guangjie is mainly because of the difference in values between the two.
It can be seen from this that Yin Tao is a woman with a strong sense of dedication. Love is important to her, but after all, it comes after her career. She may have experienced the lessons of failed relationships, and she is unwilling to give up everything she has worked so hard to build in the circle for the sake of marriage and family.
This may be the reason why she still chooses to be single.
If the previous relationships were still on the surface, the acquaintance with Zhao Da in 2020 undoubtedly made Yin Tao feel not only physiologically but also spiritually fit for the first time.
The two were originally just ordinary friends, but once they drank too much wine at a party, Yin Tao confided that she had never found a compatible confidant. Unexpectedly, Zhao Da immediately expressed his understanding and gave suggestions, and the two chatted like this.
Maybe it's the effect of alcohol, and they suddenly find that they have endless words to talk to each other. So on an ordinary night, Yin Tao ushered in one of the most unforgettable spiritual exchanges in her life.
She was surprised to find that many of Zhao Da's values coincided with her. Especially for the trade-off between career and family, Zhao Da said that he would unconditionally support Yin Tao's decision.
This touched Yin Tao's heart a lot, and she realized that she might have met her destined confidant.
From then on, they began dating frequently, and the relationship quickly warmed up. All friends said that Yin Tao's whole person exuded an aura of happiness when she faced Zhao Da. She finally opened her heart and no longer hid her true thoughts, and the lives of the two were full of laughter.
Just when everyone thought that they would enter the marriage hall, the relationship between Yin Tao and Zhao Da stagnated in the cohabitation stage, and the marriage news never came.
In fact, for Yin Tao, Zhao Da is undoubtedly the most suitable lover she has ever met. They are willing to understand and tolerate everything about each other. So why did she refuse to agree to Zhao Da's marriage proposal? Perhaps, after the baptism of the first two failed relationships, Yin Tao was tired of the fetters of marriage.
What she cares about most now is her career, and only her career can make her feel happy and satisfied. It is precisely because Zhao Da understands Yin Tao that he has been waiting and giving her the greatest respect and time.
This may be what happiness looks like for them.
Looking back at the 43-year-old Yin Tao, we see an actress with a successful career. Since she was admitted to art school at the age of 17, she has formed an indissoluble bond with the stage and the screen, and has devoted herself to studying performing arts.
Yin Tao once said frankly that she was born for acting, and without the stage, she would lose her foothold. So, it can be said that career means the whole world to her.
Because of this, Yin Tao always seems cautious on the emotional road. She fears that marital and family responsibilities will distract her, so it is difficult for her to be willing to succumb to the role of housewife as women do.
The love that Yin Tao longs for must be built on the condition that the two parties are often separated and still strong, which is also a challenge for many men.
Zhao Da is naturally not among them. He is willing to give Yin Tao the greatest understanding and time, which is why Yin Tao chooses to establish a long-term relationship with him. We have reason to believe that Zhao Da should have proposed to Yin Tao.
It's just the string in Yin Tao's heart or the ambition of her career, and she is still unwilling to give up the opportunities that come one after another in the film contract. As she herself said, the applause and flowers on the stage are what she craves most at the moment.
But life will eventually come to an end, and we have to ask, has Yin Tao ever found true love in this life? Will she finally give up her career for the sake of her family? Let's wait and see.
I hope that this intellectual woman who still has charm can find a true soulmate in her lifetime, and share a white head with fellow travelers.
