Ren Chengwei's growth is not easy
Ren Chengwei was born in 1970 and grew up in a small town in Heilongjiang, northeast China.
His father was a worker, and his mother worked as a garment worker in a small local factory.
Ren Chengwei also has two older brothers and a younger brother.
The father is tired from work on weekdays, and the mother has to take care of four children, so although the life of the Ren family can be fed, they have to save money everywhere.
The tragedy occurred when Ren Chengwei was ten years old, and his father was overwhelmed and died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. The whole family was plunged into great grief. As the only stable source of income for the family, the mother had to take on the responsibility of taking care of the entire family.
In order to earn more wages, his mother went out early and returned late every day, while Ren Chengwei and his brothers shared some housework as much as possible. Ren Chengwei still remembers that his mother often spent most of her monthly salary on pickling a large bucket of pickles, and then living with porridge.
Ren Chengwei, who has lived in a poor environment since he was a child, saw that it was not easy for his mother to run for a living, which had a profound impact on his growth. He learned to take life seriously and learned to be thrifty.
The cruelty of reality honed his inner tenacity and made him understand that only through his own efforts can he change his fate. Ren Chengwei is very grateful for his mother's nurturing grace and is determined to let his mother live a good life.
When you meet a lover, the joys and sorrows in marriage
In 1989, Ren Chengwei was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy to study Xi acting. For this introverted and reticent young man from Heilongjiang, this school opened a new chapter in his life.
Here, he met his life's bosom friend - Huang Lei.
Huang Lei is a cheerful and lively Beijing girl, she noticed that Ren Chengwei was always eating a bland lunch silently, so she took the initiative to come to his side and became friends with him.
At first, Ren Chengwei avoided Huang Lei's kindness because of his low self-esteem, but Huang Lei's sincerity made his heart gradually melt. The two slowly got acquainted, and after four years of getting along, they fell in love.
After graduating in 1993, Ren Chengwei had a difficult development in the entertainment industry, and could only play some small roles. And Huang Lei's career is much smoother. Ren Chengwei was inferior to the gap in the family conditions of the two, and did not dare to continue to develop a relationship with Huang Lei.
But Huang Lei bluntly said that she loved Ren Chengwei wholeheartedly and didn't care about anything else. Ren Chengwei was moved by her sincerity, and the two decided to get married.
After getting married, the two lived in a basement of only 9 square meters in Beijing. Ren Chengwei's income is meager, and his life is stretched. In order to save money, Ren Chengwei and Huang Lei lived a simple life, eating simple meals and wearing old clothes.
But their happiness is not diminished by poverty. Because of love, even the basement is a warm little home for them. Ren Chengwei has no regrets, he just wants to earn money as soon as possible to give Huang Lei a decent life.
Career takes off, but family is more important
After many years of working in the entertainment industry, Ren Chengwei finally ushered in a turning point in his career in 2001. He successfully won the leading actor in the TV series "Snow Without a Trace", which was also the first leading actor in his acting career.
After the show was broadcast, the response was enthusiastic, and Ren Chengwei became a blockbuster, and since then he has become famous and has become a popular student.
In the following years, Ren Chengwei's career was in full swing, and invitations to various movies and TV series followed. He worked hard and finally earned his first pot of gold, which also allowed him to move out of the basement, buy a house in Beijing, and bring his daughter to live with him.
His wife, Huang Lei, also quit her job and became a full-time housewife.
Ren Chengwei is busy on the set everywhere, and can provide his wife and daughter with a rich material life, which he has dreamed of for many years. But he also found that his wife didn't seem to be as happy as before.
It turns out that what the wife needs more is not a house and a car, but the company of her husband. Ren Chengwei realized that he should not be overly immersed in his work achievements and needed to spend more time with his family.
As a result, he began to choose high-quality works to perform, reducing his workload and making time for his wife and daughter. Every time he saw the sweet smile on his wife's face, Ren Chengwei's heart felt down-to-earth and satisfied.
He no longer pursues his career alone, but learns to balance family and work, because the health and happiness of his family is always the most important thing in his heart.
Thanksgiving, the road to fate
Looking back on his life, Ren Chengwei is grateful for his mother's nurturing grace. When he was a teenager, Ren Chengwei once did not want to take the road of actor, and his mother insisted that he go to Beijing Film to study acting Xi, which changed his fate.
Many years later, when he became a popular star, he will always remember that his mother came to Beijing to visit him with handmade money, and Ren Chengwei will never forget that nurturing feeling.
At the same time, he also wants to thank his wife Huang Lei for her kindness over the years. At the beginning, Huang Lei didn't care about Ren Chengwei's background and poverty, she just really liked him as a person.
After marriage, Huang Lei silently endured all kinds of hardships in life, but never complained to Ren Chengwei. His wife's love and support made Ren Chengwei a success, so that he did not give up during the trough.
After experiencing the baptism of life after poverty and success, Ren Chengwei realized the true meaning of life. He realizes that spending time with the people he loves is far more important than money and success.
Now he is no longer busy running for fame and fortune, but cherishes every day with his family.
Ren Chengwei and Huang Lei have been working together for 27 years, have a harmonious relationship, and have never had an affair, which makes people in the entertainment industry envious. Many junior actors also regard Ren Chengwei as a model of learning Xi, hoping that they can be like him, and still remember their original intentions after experiencing hardships and tests, and practice the oath of "sharing weal and pain".
Ren Chengwei used his life to prove that the most valuable wealth in life is the company of his family.
