In 1989, an unruly 21-year-old girl came to the glorious Hong Kong.
Her name is Yu Li, and she is a young actor full of dreams.
This year, Yu Li ushered in the first highlight moment of her life.
The film "Widow's Village", which was filmed in the mainland, earned her a nomination for the Hundred Flowers Supporting Actress Award. Standing on the stage of the award ceremony, Yu Li held the award certificate tightly, and her eyes were full of tears of joy.
This award undoubtedly opened the door to a broader stage for Yu Li.
After being nominated, Yu Li was so ambitious that she decided to go to Hong Kong, where the film industry was at its peak. However, when she first arrived in an unfamiliar big city, Yu Li ushered in a long wait and training.
Every casting she participated in was a failure, and she hit a wall at every turn. At first, Yu Li would secretly shed a few tears in the dead of night. But soon, she picked herself up and was determined to break new ground in Hong Kong on her own.
In Hong Kong, Yu Li relied on her excellent acting skills to accumulate acting experience in many supporting roles. Gradually, her professionalism was recognized and appreciated by Hong Kong directors.
Yu Li began to collaborate with popular superstars Andy Lau and Chow Yun-fat in movies, and successfully emerged. Seeing her name appear on the headlines of major entertainment magazines, Yu Li clutched the script excitedly, with a confident smile on her face.
In just a few years, Yu Li has successfully broken through in the Hong Kong film industry. This stems from her love and persistence in her acting career. Despite the difficulties she encountered when she first arrived in Hong Kong, Yu Li did not give up her dream and waited patiently for the opportunity to come.
When the opportunity came, with her solid acting skills, she firmly grasped it and successfully rose to prominence in the entertainment industry.
In 1995, when Yu Li was filming the costume drama "New Bao Qingtian", she met a special person - Ma Jingtao.
At first, Yu Li had prejudices against Ma Jingtao, and she heard from a friend that Ma Jingtao was a violent person. But in getting along with Ma Jingtao in the crew, Yu Li gradually found that this man was completely different from her impression.
Ma Jingtao takes care of Li, and the two often chat and joke. Yu Li found that the tender love in Ma Jingtao's eyes when he looked at her made her heartbeat unconsciously speed up a little.
After a few months of getting along, Yu Li and Ma Jingtao confirmed their relationship. Ma Jingtao has a lot of respect for Li and often expresses his love for her in public. He also quit some bad Xi, which made Yu Li feel his sincerity.
Yu Li looked at Ma Jingtao, her eyes were full of love and sweetness.
However, the good times did not last long, and Yu Li's friends reminded her that Ma Jingtao would change his personality and hurt people violently when he was drunk. Yu Li covered her mouth in disbelief after hearing this, and her eyes moistened.
In the midst of her painful struggles, she still proposed to break up in 1999. After the breakup, Yu Li cried so much that she wanted to commit suicide. The breakdown of this relationship left both hearts scarred.
After experiencing this ups and downs of feelings, Yu Li has seen a lot and learned to be tolerant. She understood that the two would break up because of their incompatible personalities, and she forgave Ma Jingtao for both reason.
Although the past relationship has been painful, Yu Li will be grateful for the fact that it has made her grow.
When her career and relationship continued to be in a downturn, Yu Li met a married man. At first she didn't know that the man was married, and by the time she realized the truth, it was too late.
This secret relationship was discovered by the man's original wife. One day, Yu Li was suddenly beaten up by someone from the other party and fell to the ground with serious injuries. It turned out that the woman had been eyeing her husband's movements for a long time, and this time she personally brought someone to teach Yu Li, the "little three".
This shocking scandal spread quickly, and Yu Li was ruined. The original wife described her as a sinful third party who deliberately intervened in someone else's marriage. Yu Li curled up on the bed crying, her voice choked, and her reputation fell to a low point.
This scandal made Yu Li's acting career plummet. A lot of resources were cut off, her job kept draining, and she fell from a first-line actress to a street rat who was excluded from the circle.
All this happened too suddenly, Yu Li was in pain, and her whole life was helpless.
After this turmoil, Yu Li understands that as an actor, she should be responsible for the public and not make negative news to affect the society. She should not associate with people with families, which is detrimental to herself and other people's families.
Yu Li is determined to get to the root of the problem, clear her hidden dangers, and start anew.
Now, 60-year-old Yu Li has long since faded out of the entertainment industry and lived a low-key and peaceful life.
She lives in a small, cosy and cosy apartment, and during the day she goes for a walk in the nearby park to breathe in the fresh air. She chats with her neighbors and occasionally shares her own snacks.
In the evening, Yu Li would sit down in front of the TV on time, knitting a sweater while watching the TV series in a daze.
Yu Li's life is very simple. Instead of being as busy as she was when she was younger, she has learned to stop and enjoy the peace of the moment. Occasionally, she would call her old friends to care about their current situation and talk about the strange past.
Friends say that Yu Li feels content, and she seems to have found her own way of life.
