Xie Yuan is a leader among the older generation of actors.
He was born in 1952 into a family of performing arts, his parents died when he was young, and he was raised by his stepfather.
However, his temperamentally incompatible stepfather was cold and mean to him, which made Xiao Xie Yuan feel lonely and lonely.
When he was 6 years old, he was sent to his hometown in Hebei Province, where he was strictly disciplined by his great-grandmother.
When he was a teenager, Xie Yuan was introverted, and he used watching dramas and playing erhu to seek spiritual solace. After the college entrance examination, he was admitted to the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy, and finally realized his dream of studying acting.
At first, he was jealous of his good-looking classmates and played pranks on them at every turn. Later, he realized that the essence of acting lies in professional skills and connotation, which made him determined to study hard and study Xi hard.
After graduation, Xie Yuan stayed at his alma mater to teach. His cynical teaching style has spread the nickname "improper", and many students love to listen to his classes.
Later, Xie Yuan shined in the film and television industry, becoming the "Four Actors", his career reached its peak, and his "improper" title became part of his personal charm.
Such a tossed life has created Xie Yuan's rugged and undulating destiny.
Xie Yuan's first love was Song Xiaolin, the daughter of his high school Chinese teacher Tang Xiaolin.
That day, Lao Tang called and asked Xie Yuan to guide his daughter Song Xiaolin to prepare for the acting academy. Xie Yuan happily went, but the moment he saw Song Xiaolin, he was deeply attracted by her pink girlish face.
During the teaching process, the two interacted frequently and gradually became affectionate. Song Xiaolin took the initiative to reveal her heart and expressed her desire to stay with Xie Yuan for the rest of her life.
At that time, Xie Yuan was still in the film and television industry, and he had no foundation to settle down. In order to give his sweetheart a home, he decided to register his marriage with Song Xiaolin first and agreed to let his parents-in-law live in their house.
This was regarded as an "inverted" son-in-law back then, and it was criticized a lot. The two were under tremendous pressure, and Xie Yuan worked desperately to clear up the rumors.
Just when everything was fine, Song Xiaolin, who was about to become pregnant, had an abortion out of selfishness. This move directly led to the breakdown of the relationship. Although Xie Yuan's career was in full swing in the years that followed, this memory has come to naught.
In 1992, the two went through divorce procedures and officially ended their first marriage.
In 1996, Xie Yuan met Qiu Yue, an outstanding student, when he was teaching at Beiying.
Although he was 17 years younger than Xie Yuan, Qiu Yue, who took the initiative to pursue him, quickly moved Xie Yuan's single-minded sincerity. The two fell in love and got married in 2000.
This time, Xie Yuan finally tasted the sweetness of the double harvest of love and career. In the days of the newlywed Yan'er, he and Qiu Yueen were in love with each other, and even if they had no children for many years, they felt contented and prosperous.
Xie Yuan openly expressed his support for the idea, claiming that having a partner who knows him and his friend is more important than anything else.
The good times did not last long, and Xie Yuan died of a heart attack in 2020 at the age of 61. The grief-stricken Qiu Yue cheered up and completed her husband's funeral strongly. Now that she is back to work, this is the best memory of Xie Yuan.
These 11 years of married life are the happiest days of Xie Yuan's life.
Xie Yuan is known as the "Four Actors" in the contemporary entertainment industry, and his career is in full swing, but he has never had children, which is his biggest regret.
In the two marriages, the first wife Song Xiaolin had an abortion after becoming pregnant, which became the fuse for Xie Yuan's divorce. Although his second wife, Qiu Yue, did not succeed in conceiving, she accompanied Xie Yuan to the death and did not let him be lonely.
It can be seen that attitude can determine a person's fate.
Looking back now, will Qiu Yue also regret her inability to give birth? If she had successfully conceived back then, maybe she would have a child who is dependent on each other now, and she can take good care of the aging Xie Yuan, so that his old age will no longer be lonely.
This is likely to become Qiu Yue's heart knot and regret in his life.
While we are all pursuing our careers, we also desire to have our own small family, which is human nature. Although Xie Yuan strongly supported childlessness when he was alive, in his bones, he must have hoped to have children of his own.
