Today's Zhang Jinling
Time flies, time flies, and actress Zhang Jinling, who used to be beautiful on the screen, is now an old man in her prime. However, even after her old age, the former screen goddess still maintains a positive attitude towards life.
Sitting in the spacious and bright study, Zhang Jinling looked out the window at the green trees, and her heart was full of warmth. Her son, Xu Yibei, is working in other places, and although he is over 30 years old, he still goes home to visit his mother from time to time.
Every festival, he would always give Zhang Jinling a heavy gift with great ambition and ask her about her physical condition with concern. Such a thoughtful gesture undoubtedly made the elderly Zhang Jinling feel great relief and pride.
Her son's filial piety was undoubtedly the greatest comfort for her choice to return to the family back then.
Recalling the choice she made back then, Zhang Jinling still remembers the inner entanglements and struggles. It was undoubtedly a difficult decision to give up the opportunity at the peak of his career and choose to return to ordinary family life.
But, as a mother, she knows in her heart that taking care of her young son is far more important than shining on the screen. Therefore, she resolutely chose to quit the film industry and devoted herself wholeheartedly to her family.
Now, with the encouragement and support of her son Xu Yibei, the 70-year-old Zhang Jinling began to try to engage in calligraphy and painting, and has achieved fruitful results. Just a few years ago, she held a personal exhibition of calligraphy and painting, and a work was auctioned at a sky-high price of one million yuan, which attracted everyone's attention.
This undoubtedly adds more brilliance and confidence to the former goddess of the screen.
"It was all worth it. When asked about her decision to give up her career back then, Zhang Jinling would not hesitate to give such an answer. She believes that all the efforts and sacrifices have finally been exchanged for the healthy growth and happiness of her son, which is the biggest gain in her life.
Although she chose to quit the peak of her career back then, Zhang Jinling did not have any regrets about her choice. On the contrary, she believes that she has interpreted thousands of different roles in her acting career, experiencing and feeling the myriad tastes of life.
Now, all the stories, joys, and challenges belong to her own unique life experience, and she is still enthusiastic and cherishes them without regrets.
As an old man, Zhang Jinling still maintains a positive attitude towards life. With the love and support of her son, she walked out of the haze of the family and regained the brilliance of her career.
This former screen goddess is now composing the wonderful music of life in her own unique way.
Marital rifts and remarriages
At the end of the 80s of the 20th century, Zhang Jinling, who was at the peak of her career, married Xu Min, who was also an actor. The two were affectionately known as the "model couple on the screen" by fans, but the good times did not last long, and the marriage soon cracked.
In 1988, Zhang Jinling and Xu Min finally embarked on the road of divorce. This made many viewers who loved them feel incredulous and expressed disbelief.
was originally regarded as a beautiful person on the screen, but it also came to the end of marriage, which made people sigh.
What was the reason for the breakdown of the marriage of this loving couple? Perhaps, while Zhang Jinling's career was booming, Xu Min was gradually overshadowed by the light of fellow artists, and it was inevitable that he would feel frustrated and insecure in his heart.
Or perhaps, the two have been separated for a long time, which will inevitably have a negative impact on the relationship. Whatever the reason, this marital crisis has undoubtedly become the darkest moment in Zhang Jinling's life.
Just when Zhang Jinling fell into the bleakest situation in her life, a businessman named Zhang Zheng appeared in her life. This tall and handsome gentleman not only gave Zhang Jinling spiritual sustenance, but also provided deep fatherly care for his young son Xu Yibei.
With Zhang Zheng's great help, Zhang Jinling finally rebuilt a new happy family.
In 1989, Zhang Jinling resolutely decided to marry Zhang Zheng and opened a new chapter in her life. Although life after marriage is not easy, Zhang Jinling is still wholeheartedly devoted to her son's growth.
In order to relieve the loneliness at home, Zhang Zheng also specially introduced Zhang Jinling to Qi Baishi's proud protégé, the elderly calligraphy master Lou Shibai.
This prestigious master deeply felt Zhang Jinling's wisdom and blue heart, and after seeing the four big characters "peace is blessing" written by her with a splash of ink, he decisively accepted her as a disciple.
In the years that followed, Zhang Jinling went to her teacher's weekly office to submit calligraphy and painting assignments with perseverance, and finally won the master's heartfelt praise in 1994: "From today onwards, you don't need to submit any more assignments.
This affirmation from the master is undoubtedly the highest praise for Zhang Jinling's life path.
Since the day she left school, Zhang Jinling has successfully held a personal exhibition of calligraphy and painting, and has also won a high reputation in the literary world. Surprisingly, one of her works even set an auction record of more than one million yuan, which made the former screen goddess shine in the temple of art again.
All of this is thanks to Zhang Zheng's guidance and support. Zhang Jinling sincerely expressed her full respect and gratitude to her husband, he not only helped her achieve happiness, but also gave her son the fatherly care he deserved, which is commendable.
The transition from an acting career to a family role
In 1982, Zhang Jinling and Liu Xiaoqing once again co-starred in the epic masterpiece "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace". Just when she was full of confidence and eager to make a big splash in this work, a terrible news came - she was unexpectedly pregnant.
Faced with the director's demanding requirements, Zhang Jinling was in a dilemma. On the one hand, she is eager to show her talents and refresh herself in this film; On the other hand, as a woman who is about to become a mother, she also deeply feels the responsibility and responsibility for her new life.
After careful consideration, she finally chose the latter and resolutely gave up this opportunity to create a classic role.
In just three months after the birth of his son, "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" met the audience as scheduled, but this role that should have belonged to Zhang Jinling was replaced by Liu Xiaoqing.
This is undoubtedly a huge regret and a blow. When his son was less than a year old, the pressure on his heart was pouring like a tide. On the one hand, she longs to be able to regain her passion for filmmaking; On the other hand, he was worried that the long absence would have a negative impact on his son's development.
After repeated considerations, Zhang Jinling finally made a painful decision - to give up her acting career, return to her family wholeheartedly, and devote herself to taking care of her son.
Relatives and friends have comforted her, saying that it is not easy for her to get to where she is today, and it is a pity to give up all this easily. After all, she was only over 32 years old at this time.
Hearing such words, Zhang Jinling burst into tears and said in a choked voice: "Now that I have a son, my family has been completed, and I should return to the family and take care of my family."
These words were as deafening as thunder, and everyone present was moved.
For actresses, the contradiction between family and career is particularly acute. Zhang Jinling chose to become a stay-at-home mother, which was undoubtedly a difficult but indispensable decision.
She is well aware that she can only truly have inner peace and tranquility if she puts the happiness of her family and her son first.
Although she gave up the opportunity to peak her career, Zhang Jinling did not have any regrets about her choice. Instead, she believes that she has played thousands of different roles in her acting career, experiencing and feeling the myriad flavors of life to the fullest.
Now, all the stories, joys, and challenges belong to her own unique life experience, and she is still enthusiastic and cherishes them without regrets.
The metamorphosis from a country girl to a well-known actor
Looking back on Zhang Jinling's life path, it is not difficult to see the process of her gradually growing from an ordinary rural girl to a well-known film and television star in China. The hardships and tribulations that have been experienced in this process are undoubtedly worthy of our respect and admiration.
The living conditions are very poor, and this kind of family education has undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for Zhang Jinling's life path.
Finally, at the age of 19, she mustered up the courage to ask her family for leave and went to Henan to participate in the recruitment of the Hubei Repertory Theatre. With her delicate appearance and fluent Mandarin expression skills, she successfully entered the Hubei Repertory Theatre and started her own acting career.
During her years in the repertory theatre, Zhang Jinling started from scratch, gradually learning acting skills and undertaking all kinds of arduous logistics work. With her tenacious character and hard-working learning attitude, she quickly stood out in the team and grew into one of the heroines.
In 1974, Shanghai Film Studio re-shot the classic film "Crossing the River Reconnaissance" and looked for a suitable actor to play the heroine Liu Sijie. Zhang Jinling did not hesitate to sign up for it, and with repeated training in the bunker, she defeated many excellent actors and won this important role.
The excellent interpretation of this role immediately made Zhang Jinling stand out on the screen and became the audience's favorite screen goddess.
Subsequently, Zhang Jinling successively starred in classic works such as "The River Flows" and "From Slave to General", and gradually became a high-profile movie star in China with her unique female charm and diversified acting skills.
Whether it is the image of a resolute soldier or a soft and moving female image, Zhang Jinling can interpret it like a few treasures, which amazes the audience.
This girl, who was once born in a poor rural area, with her own hard work and perseverance, stepped into the hall of the entertainment industry step by step and became a household name. Her life experience is undoubtedly an inspirational story, fully illustrating that anyone can achieve their ideals as long as they stick to their dreams.
