Zhao Wenxuan's extraordinary family background
Zhao Wenxuan was born in an extraordinary family. His father was a former Whampoa Military Academy officer, and later he also made great achievements in the business world. His father married two wives, Zhao Wenxuan was born to his second wife, and his mother once introduced him to strangers as "the child I raised".
So it can be seen that her mother is very doting on Zhao Wenxuan. However, in order to exercise Zhao Wenxuan's independent character, his father has been extremely strict with him since he was a child, and even his eyebrows feel evil.
Zhao Wenxuan also has an older brother, who is older than him and became a doctor. The father treated his two sons equally, but they were raised in different ways. When he was a child, Zhao Wenxuan once sneaked into his father's closet and shaved off his eyebrows with a razor to please his father. This action fully reflects his inner rebellion and longing for his father's approval. Looking back now, Zhao Wenxuan is very grateful for his father's strict teaching, which forged his independent and tenacious personality.
Entered the showbiz by chance
At the age of 32, it was a major turning point in Zhao Wenxuan's life. His mother unfortunately passed away, and his father was diagnosed with cancer, and his condition became more and more serious.
Facing the blow of illness and death of his relatives, Zhao Wenxuan was very painful in his heart. Before his father's sickbed, his father had a long talk with him, expressing the hope that he could understand his intentions of being strict with him since he was a child.
The father also unknowingly left a fortune to his two sons, wanting each of them to have a chance to start over. The death of his father made Zhao Wenxuan determined to live well and realize his ideals.
He quit his spare job and used the money his father left him to study abroad. One day after returning to China, he was eating at a restaurant when he accidentally saw an actor recruitment advertisement directed by Ang Lee and was excited. He auditioned successfully and played the leading role in the movie "The Wedding Banquet" and officially entered the showbiz. By chance, Zhao Wenxuan found a new direction in life.
Xue Shao in "Daming Palace Ci" detonated the screen
In 1998, 39-year-old Zhao Wenxuan starred in the TV series "Daming Palace Ci" in the actor Xue Shao, which was deeply loved by the audience as soon as it was broadcast, and Zhao Wenxuan was also a blockbuster and was named "the most beautiful male god in ancient costumes".
Zhou Xun and Chen Hong, who played with him, played the young and elderly princesses of Taiping respectively in the play, and they were not only attracted by Zhao Wenxuan's gentle and jade-like appearance, but also infected by the sincerity in his acting skills, and they both had a good impression of him.
They have many touching rivalry scenes in the play, especially in a scene where Zhou Xun lifted his mask and looked at each other, after seeing Zhao Wenxuan's handsome face, his eyes were full of joy and shyness.
The two actors wanted to further develop their relationship with Cho Wenxuan, but he did not accept their pursuit. Zhao Wenxuan believes that a good relationship needs to have a fateful fate, and it should not be based only on the outside.
He has always maintained rationality and calmness, which has amazed the audience. This high-standard concept of courtship has also become an important reason for Zhao Wenxuan's celibacy in the future.
Give up marriage and concentrate on retirement
After entering the age of 50, Zhao Wenxuan's longing for love and marriage gradually faded, and he made up his mind to concentrate on his retirement and enjoy his own leisure time. After experiencing the death of her parents and the failure of several relationships, Zhao Wenxuan realized that the world was impermanent and decided to no longer pursue an uncertain marriage, but an ideal living environment.
He bought an 800-square-meter compound next to an ancient temple in Ningbo, decorated it beautifully like an art museum, and then moved in to live with some staff.
In this paradise, Zhao Wenxuan lives a freewheeling life, with no fixed schedule and rest time, and can sleep until he wakes up naturally every day, or surf the Internet and read novels all night.
He is surrounded by his favorite cats, dogs, and plants. After the age of sixty, Zhao Wenxuan almost completely withdrew from the entertainment industry and enjoyed such a comfortable life. He said that the property will eventually be donated to the temple, because it is enough to own good things, and there is no need to be attached.
Zhao Wenxuan's choice of "predestined to die alone" made many fans feel puzzled and regretful, but this reflects his inner persistence and love for life.
Analyze the uniqueness of Zhao Wenxuan
Zhao Wenxuan's life experience is different, and his uniqueness lies in the following: first, no matter what he goes through, he can maintain his own independent thinking. Zhao Wenxuan has had ideas with his father since he was a child, but he does not follow the crowd, nor is he affected by the evaluation of the outside world.
Before entering the industry, he worked as a young man, and later studied abroad, and these rich experiences taught him to think independently and not follow the crowd. In terms of feelings, although the celebrity sees him as an ideal object, he is unmoved and always maintains his own judgment.
Second, he has his own standards for relationships and marriage, and he does not compromise easily. After the success of "Daming Palace Ci", Zhou Xun and Chen Hong both expressed their love, but Zhao Wenxuan did not accept their pursuit.
He believes that a good relationship needs a fateful fate, and it cannot be based only on appearances. This high standard also became the reason for his celibacy, and he would rather be alone than compromise easily.
In the end, he had the courage and determination to pursue the life that his heart wanted. Zhao Wenxuan, who only entered the industry at the age of forty, decisively chose to retire at the peak of his career. He bought a compound in Ningbo and lived a leisurely life, which required great courage.
In real life, most people will choose to continue to work hard to make money or gain fame and fortune at this moment. Zhao Wenxuan's choice proves that he has the courage and determination to pursue his inner desires.
These unique traits have created Zhao Wenxuan from an ordinary person who can become a first-line star later at the age of forty. It also gave him the courage to choose to retire at the peak of his career and live his ideal life.
