Hao Ping has been extremely enthusiastic about acting since he was a child, and often runs under the big trees in the village, singing and dancing at the same time, using a wooden stick as a microphone to make the children in the village laugh.
Teachers and classmates did not understand Hao Ping's enthusiasm, and often ridiculed him for being "born with a performance material". But Hao Pingzhi is an excellent cross talk actor, and he is not swayed by the incomprehension of the people around him.
The college entrance examination is the first hurdle for Hao Ping to embark on the road of performance. When he took the college entrance examination for the first time, he confidently chose the acting major, but he failed due to insufficient scores. During the second college entrance examination, Hao Ping worked harder to prepare, but he still missed his favorite acting major.
Just when Hao Ping was about to give up his dream, the Chinese teacher encouraged him to fight for the third year and to go all out. With the encouragement of his teacher, Hao Ping rekindled his fighting spirit and finally got a valuable opportunity to enter the Shanghai Theater Academy, his second choice.
But just when Hao Ping was happily preparing to go to the poster, the distribution result surprised him - a remote repertory troupe in Fujian.
After coming to the repertory troupe, Hao Ping found that the work here was far from as good as he imagined. The number of performances of the drama is very small, and most of the time is repetitive and boring rehearsals.
Hao Ping is unwilling to be buried in this small place, and his acting skills cannot be exercised and improved. In Hao Ping's view, the current environment is far from the previous vision of dreams, and the prospects are bleak.
So, two years later, Hao Ping decided to quit his job and went north to Shanghai. He firmly believes that only there can his acting dreams get a better space for growth.
Hao Ping was unwilling to be crushed by the environment, so he chose to fight hard.
Coming to the unfamiliar Shanghai, Hao Ping's life was not easy. At first, he lived in a small 12-square-meter house rented by his classmates and lived a simple life. In order to save money, they often go to the wet market to buy expired vegetables.
During the day, Hao Ping asked questions in various film and television companies to find opportunities; In the evenings, he went to the bar to help out with odd jobs, barely making ends meet.
After more than a year of hard work, Hao Ping still didn't get the opportunity to perform. At this time, he was sad all day long, and often sat alone on the Bund, looking at the vast river in a daze.
Once upon a time, where was his extreme love for acting? Hao Ping began to question his decision. But when he thought of the expectations of the Chinese teacher back then, Hao Ping would rekindle his confidence.
He didn't allow himself to give up halfway and croak.
In the winter of 1996, Hao Ping participated in the audition for a costume drama, and his passionate and layered performance impressed the director, and he finally got a small supporting role. Although there are few scenes, Hao Ping cherishes it very much.
With a "click", the director shouted the card, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, except for Hao Ping. He finally waited for this long-awaited opportunity, and did not dare to relax at all.
The director walked over, patted Hao Ping's shoulder, and praised: "Xiao Hao, his expression is rich, and he is in place! This state is enough to play a more important role!"
Hao Ping was so excited that he burst into tears, and the director's affirmation was like lighting a bright light on Hao Ping's struggling acting career.
In 1996, Hao Ping started working part-time at a dubbing company, mainly dubbing cartoons and documentaries. The personnel structure here is complex, with professional voice actors and some amateurs.
Jiang Yuan is an amateur voice actor there, who usually works in a garment factory. She has a sweet voice and often voices cute and lively little girl characters for cartoons.
The two met during a voice-over job. Hao Ping had just finished work that day and was about to leave, Jiang Yuan hurriedly ran into the recording studio, but accidentally tripped and fell. Hao Ping quickly helped her, Jiang Yuan smiled shyly and thanked her.
It was an ordinary encounter, but it made Hao Ping's heart fascinated. After that, he would often find reasons to talk to Jiang Yuan, and felt that this sweet-looking girl was very popular.
After a while, Hao Ping plucked up his courage and asked Jiang Yuan if he wanted to watch the drama together. Jiang Yuan readily agreed. The chance meeting between the two in front of the theater became the beginning of their sweet love.
After Hao Ping's confession was successful, the two began dating. Jiang Yuan often visited Hao Ping's small rental house. Faced with the humble environment, Jiang Yuan not only did not dislike it, but also offered to let Hao Ping go to her house to take a bath.
More than a year later, the two officially returned home to meet their parents. Jiang Yuan's parents didn't mind that Hao Ping didn't have a stable job yet, and they readily agreed to this family business. Hao Ping is sincerely grateful to his parents-in-law for their open-mindedness and tolerance.
In order to get married, Hao Ping worked hard to borrow money to buy a small house of more than 40 square meters. He excitedly handed over the key to Jiang Yuan, and the two began to prepare for the wedding.
The bits and pieces of married life are both sweet and difficult, and the two are different in many ways, and they often quarrel over trivial things. Jiang Yuan thinks that Hao Ping is not too young, and he often stays up late to create; Hao Ping felt that Jiang Yuan was not careful in housework, which always affected his work.
Once, the two had a dispute over what kindergarten their children attended, and Hao Ping smashed the door of his house in a moment of excitement. Jiang Yuan couldn't bear it anymore and called his parents to complain.
At this time, Jiang Yuan's father, Jiang Dad, made a move that Hao Ping never expected......
At about 11 o'clock that night, Hao Pingzheng was sitting alone in front of the dilapidated door in a daze, and Jiang Yuan had already cried and fell asleep.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure walking over - it was Jiang Yuan's father, Jiang Dad!
Hao Ping couldn't believe his eyes. He thought that Dad Jiang was here to ask the teacher for guilt, so he immediately stood up nervously.
But Dad Jiang smiled and patted Hao Ping's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Son, I understand your temper, and my daughter is also at fault for this quarrel." As a father, I must apologize to you for her faults.
Hao Ping never expected that Dad Jiang would come to the door in person and admit his mistake to himself. He felt his nose sour, his eyes were red, and he also held Jiang's father's hand tightly, and said excitedly: "Dad, I should apologize to you!
Dad Jiang laughed heartily and patted Hao Ping's shoulder hard: "Good son! Yuan Yuan was raised by me, and sometimes his temper is really bad." But she has a good heart, you have to learn to be considerate of her and tolerate her.
Hao Ping nodded and bowed solemnly to Dad Jiang again. This quarrel became an important turning point in his married life with Jiang Yuan.
From then on, Hao Ping learned to tolerate Jiang Yuan's temper and mistakes. He would also take the initiative to tell her jokes to make her happy when Jiang Yuan was unhappy. Jiang Yuan gradually stopped being unreasonable, and the couple became much more harmonious.
Thinking back on this incident now, Hao Ping will still be deeply moved by Dad Jiang's self-sacrifice that day. If it weren't for Jiang's father's guidance, his marriage relationship with Jiang Yuan might have come to an end.
Many people may question why they should tolerate his wife's various faults? But Hao Ping understands that Jiang Yuan also tolerates his temper and mistakes many times.
This is the mutual understanding that is essential when people get along with each other.
Many years later, Hao Ping has become an excellent film and television actor, living a rich and happy life.
For Hao Ping, the most correct life decision was to marry Jiang Yuan, a bosom friend who did not dislike him for being poor. It was Jiang Yuan's company that became the biggest motivation for Hao Ping to work the road of acting.
When he first arrived in Shanghai for development, Hao Ping's situation was very bleak. During the day, he went door-to-door looking for work, and at night he did odd jobs in bars. Many times, Hao Ping felt that the future was bleak and wanted to give up.
It was Jiang Yuan who gently encouraged him on the phone and sent him warm words that Hao Ping rekindled his fighting spirit. Sometimes Hao Ping feels that Jiang Yuan is like a bright light, illuminating his way forward.
In 1996, after waiting for more than a year, Hao Ping finally waited for the first performance opportunity in his life. At that time, he was very excited, and immediately called Jiang Yuan to report the good news.
Jiang Yuan was even more happy to dance and celebrate Hao Ping's first step in formal acting.
After the two got married, Hao Ping's career began to slowly improve. But at the beginning, the income was meager, and life was still tight. Jiang Yuan not only never complained about anything, but always silently supported and encouraged.
Hao Ping will always remember that cold winter in 2002. That year, he made his first film, and finally ushered in the masterpiece of his career. But the salary has not been settled for a long time, and the family has been squeezed.
In those months, Jiang Yuan borrowed money from relatives and friends to "replenish blood" for living expenses in various ways. Hao Ping saw it in his eyes, and the guilt was overflowing. He vowed to repay Jiang Yuan and give her a happy home.
Today's Hao Ping is already a well-known and powerful actor in the film and television industry, with a considerable income. He often jokingly said to Jiang Yuan, if you hadn't believed in me all the time, I would have been crushed by setbacks a long time ago.
Without your support, I wouldn't be where I am today.
