In 1992, when Lin Qingxia was filming "Undefeated in the East", there was a scene that made Lin Qingxia tremble with fear the night before filming, and when Lin Qingxia was afraid, a phone call saved her.
Yang Fan called Lin Qingxia to invite her to play mahjong together, Lin Qingxia decisively refused, and just as she was about to hang up the phone, Yang Fan said slowly: Zunlong is also there.
Hearing the word Zunlong, Lin Qingxia was in good spirits, and immediately said: Ah, Zunlong, wait for me, I'll go immediately.
In this way, in order to be able to look at Zunlong more, Lin Qingxia has obviously forgotten about filming the next day, and this mahjong game is one night.
Lin Qingxia is not the only one who is obsessed with Zunlong, even Wang Zuxian, who is known as "Asia's No. 1 Beauty", has been infatuated with him for a long time, and it is rumored that she also pursued Zunlong, and finally died without a problem.
With such a beautiful and moving suitor, why can Zunlong still be alone? This is because Zunlong has his own white moonlight in his heart.
Zunlong has always been relatively low-key in his love life, and he is also very good at protecting his privacy, according to rumors, Zunlong thought of a Nina Savino during his time at Santa Ana College, Nina Savino was an extremely gentle, optimistic girl.
And Zunlong's appearance belongs to the level of the world-level ceiling, as if Nuwa Niangniang seems to be eccentric when shaping his appearance, making him an imitation and charm that no one in the world can imitate.
Zunlong, who has a good looks, is naturally very popular in school, but he has an unfortunate experience that makes him shy away when facing suitors.
But Nina Savino seems to be different from the other girls, and the sunlight on her body seems to shine into his dark world, which seems to give a glimmer of light to the world of the dragon.
Nina Savino often finds Zunlong to study with and teach him English, and over time, Zunlong, who doesn't smile often, gradually has a smiling face, and it seems that Yue Lao also holds the red rope on the arm of the two, so that the relationship between the two is gradually getting closer and closer.
So in 1972, Zunlong and Nina Savino got married, but a beautiful love lasted only 7 years before they divorced.
After the divorce, Zunlong was also very clean, and never had lace news and scandals with the actress.
Zunlong, who is not in a good relationship, is even more sad in his childhood, and even said that the unhappiness of this marriage is also related to his childhood.
Tragic life
In 1952, the crying of a baby came from a small alley in Hong Kong, and this baby was Zunlong.
For a family, welcoming a newborn is a happy day for the whole family, but it is not here in Zunlong, who was abandoned by his parents at birth and is still fending for himself in a small alley.
Maybe it was sensing the abandonment of his parents, maybe it was hunger, or maybe it was heartbroken about his tragic fate, no matter what the reason, the infant Zunlong couldn't stop crying.
But it was the sound of crying that attracted the attention of a middle-aged woman, and when she saw that there was no one around, she carried Zunlong back to her own home, which was dilapidated and disorganized.
A person who can barely support herself, how can she feed the infant Zunlong?
It turned out that this middle-aged woman was a crippled "Miss Shanghai" in the past, who had never been married, and this woman did not adopt Zunlong out of kindness.
At that time, there was a policy that children in the family could receive subsidies, so she picked up Zunlong and brought it home, and for children who were not related by blood, middle-aged women also had a temper on him.
Zunlong, who is begging for life with this punch and kick, has no self-esteem in life, but where can he go at a young age?
So Zunlong could only endure begging for a living, but when he was four or five years old, this middle-aged woman didn't want to support him, so she threw him near the bus stop again.
But for some reason, the middle-aged woman turned around and took him back until he was eight years old.
When Zunlong was eight years old, this middle-aged woman took a fancy to his very handsome appearance, so she sent him to the Spring and Autumn Society in Hong Kong to learn Peking Opera.
After the middle-aged woman sent Zunlong here, she didn't care about him, it seemed that she was a little left to fend for herself, and she had fled from the beating at home, but what Zunlong didn't expect was that she escaped from the wolf's den to the tiger's den.
The training here is very brutal and hard, and the way of training is very difficult for a young person.
But at a young age, Zunlong persevered, and here he was well-trained in singing, classical Chinese theatre techniques, dance, and athletic arts.
Due to his rigorous training, he often isolated himself from academic and social activities and fully immersed himself in his art, and it was here that he developed a strong interest in acting.
At that time, Hollywood was the top place in the world, and Zunlong also wanted to go to the United States to learn more about acting, but this required a lot of financial support.
When he was at his wit's end, an American family was willing to sponsor him, so the eighteen-year-old turned down an offer to join a dance company in Brussels and a ten-year contract to make a kung fu movie.
Instead, he accepted the sponsorship of an American couple and continued his education in the United States, and once in the United States, Zunlong continued to hone his skills and choreography in New York and Los Angeles.
And Zunlong spent three years taking evening English classes at Santa Ana Community College until he was able to speak fluently in order to be more effective in his acting studies.
He later continued his acting education at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Pasadena, graduating in 1978.
achievement
In the 70s, it was difficult for Asian actors to get major roles on American television, so after graduation, Zunlong did not enter the entertainment industry as smoothly as he imagined, and wanted to go to Hollywood to develop, but no one wanted him.
But even so, it still didn't make Zunlong retreat, and even said that he had no way back and could only rush forward.
If you can't be the protagonist, then start with a small role, I don't know if Zunlong's appearance is too out of tune, or maybe God was moved by this person who desperately wants to live, and he soon got a better opportunity.
Director Nobu Iwamatsu is directing a drama called "The New Immigrant," in which Zunlong plays an immigrant who struggles to adapt to his new environment, a role that has earned him recognition for his acting skills and has begun to receive more attention.
After that, Zunlong began to direct and act in the drama "Dance and Railway", and added the art of Peking Opera to this drama, such a novel way of interpretation shined at that time.
Subsequently, Zunlong won the Best Performance Award at the Obi Awards in one fell swoop with his two works, "Dance and Railroad" and "New Immigrant", which is simply the "Oscar" winner in the theater industry!
Soon, Hollywood also noticed Zunlong, and he began to play roles in various TV shows and movies.
He was later nominated twice for a Golden Globe for his performance in The Last Emperor, which also won a Golden Globe for Best Feature Film and an Oscar for Best Picture.
In the late 90s, he became more involved in the Asian film and television market until 2007, when he began to fade out of the entertainment industry.
Reason for retirement
There are also many discussions on the Internet about Zunlong's retirement, some people say that Zunlong's personality is high and he looks down on fame and fortune, and some people say that it is the misunderstanding of the Chinese people who made him lose the opportunity to return to China for development, and even some people say that he is not bad for money and is capricious.
As we all know, there are only two people who have been nominated for the Golden Globe Award in Chinese, one is Zunlong, nominated twice, and the other is Zhang Ziyi, nominated once.
A person with such high achievements does earn a lot of salary after becoming famous, and he will naturally pick and choose what he is interested in.
However, the real reason for his retirement, the most talked about on the Internet is the incident in which he was labeled as a "big name".
At that time, Cheng Dieyi in "Farewell My Concubine" was not Leslie Cheung at the beginning, and Zunlong was also very eager for this role at that time, and he was willing to reduce his salary to act.
So in November 1991, he announced that he would star in the film, for which he also turned down invitations to American and French films and a stage play, showing his great enthusiasm for the film. But just a month later, he announced his resignation.
I don't know who came out first to say that Zunlong played a big name, asking for high salaries and cumbersome contracts, so the crew decided to change people, and Zunlong himself never responded to this matter for slandering himself.
However, this incident had a great impact on Zunlong, not only damaging his international popularity, but also seriously affecting his reputation in China.
In Zeng, Zunlong also expressed his desire to return to China in many interviews, but with the label of "playing a big name", he lost a lot of filming opportunities.
It's a pity that Zunlong's character doesn't like to explain, he believes that the pure person is self-purifying, so his silence allowed the rumors to take root, causing his acting career to be hindered.
status quo
Zunlong, who is already over the age of six, already has a beer belly, and the wrinkles on his face are clearly visible, he has no "roots" since birth, and now he still feels that he has no "roots" and lives alone.
However, after retiring, Zunlong settled in Canada, but some netizens wondered why he didn't return to China to settle down? This is probably because Zunlong wants to have his own private life and is unwilling to put it in the public's field of vision.
And when the media of the Hong Kong media wrote the title, it was indeed a little difficult to get into the elegant hall, Zunlong was not only photographed but also slandered for just having a meal, so it is probably this reason that Zunlong is more willing to stay abroad.
epilogue
By understanding Zunlong's life, it can be said that it is like a legend, from an unknown orphan to an internationally renowned film and television superstar, it can really be described as "where there is a will, there is a way".
