After CCTV director Zhao An's accident, the family was deserted all of a sudden, seeing that there was no "use value", celebrities from all walks of life avoided it, and his wife Lu Xiumei's appearance fee was reduced from 50,000 yuan to 2,000 yuan.
Zhao An was once an elite director of CCTV and a well-known figure at home and abroad, and his works were loved by countless audiences. But behind his glory, there is a little-known secret.
In 2003, Zhao An was arrested by the police for being involved in a huge bribery case and sentenced to 10 years in prison, a news that shocked the entire literary and art world.
Zhao An, a talented director, has stood out with his own efforts since the beginning of his career and quickly became an important figure in CCTV.
At a party in 1983, Zhao An met Lu Xiumei, a singer of the China Opera House at that time, and was deeply attracted by his beautiful singing, and since then a beautiful fate has begun.
The two love each other in their married life, and they go hand in hand in their careers, becoming a successful couple that people envy. However, with the improvement of his status, Zhao An's heart gradually swelled, and finally embarked on the road of no return to crime.
During this period, the appearance of songwriter Zhang Junyi provided Zhao An with an opportunity to commit crimes. Zhang Junyi used various means to lead Zhao An to the point of no return in the transaction of power and money.
Since then, Zhao An has begun to use his position to accept bribes and provide illegal assistance to others.
However, the law was restored, and the police finally seized a large amount of cash and bribes at Zhao An's home, completely exposing his corruption.
After Zhao An was sentenced, the originally harmonious family suffered a fatal blow. His wife, Lu Xiumei, struggled under the dual pressure of both mental and financial pressure.
She was originally famous in the circle, but she faced the dilemma that no one cared about, and even the previous commercial performance fees have shrunk significantly.
Not only that, during a dress rehearsal, Lu Xiumei suddenly fainted, and after diagnosis, she was diagnosed with advanced rectal cancer.
The torture of illness made her even more emaciated, but she still endured the pain and insisted on holding on until the last moment in order to give her husband who was about to be released from prison a hope.
Hearing that his wife was seriously ill, Zhao An felt guilty in his heart, and thought that he had to do something to make up for it. In prison, he behaved very well, and finally managed a three-year sentence reduction, and he was released early in 2009.
When he returned home, he saw that Lu Xiumei was so strong, and although she was very sick, she was still very optimistic. She has been encouraging Zhao An to get him back on his feet.
Both of them have been through so much, and they have seen through all aspects of life. In order to fulfill Lu Xiumei's last wish, Zhao An began to work hard, and with his past connections and experience, he finally returned to the film and television industry.
In 2015, Zhao Anke really encountered a great opportunity! He held the first "United Nations China" party at the United Nations headquarters, which was amazing!
The party really attracted a lot of United Nations officials and diplomats, who were all fascinated by Zhao An's talent. This time, Zhao Anke won a super high honor, and everyone praised him!
Zhao An used his own personal experience to tell everyone: greed and power can confuse people's minds for a while, but they will inevitably lead to devastating consequences in the end.
And only by bravely facing one's mistakes and strengthening one's beliefs can we usher in a new life.
He proved to the world with practical actions that no matter how difficult the predicament, as long as there is a strong and unyielding heart, you can overcome everything and rekindle the light of hope in life.
