Preface
In 1990, for Song Jia, it was undoubtedly the most dazzling year of her career, at the age of 28, she shined in the film and television industry, successfully won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, and quickly became a first-line star.
Behind the glory, it is accompanied by the pressure of public opinion and the judgment of morality.
At that time, Song Jia's husband was seriously ill and bedridden, but her career was booming.
In such a dilemma, Song Jia made a bold and controversial decision - to divorce her seriously ill husband, which made her bear the public opinion accusation of "abandoning her husband and abandoning her illness".
In the face of the camera and the public's doubts, Song Jia firmly gave her own explanation: "I think that our separation is the real love for each other."
She approached the marriage in a seemingly cold but deliberate way.
After the divorce, Song Jia did not stop the pace of life, she remarried and had a son, it is worth noting that she named her son after her ex-husband's surname, a move that to some extent reflects her mixed feelings about that marriage and her ex-husband.
Compared with her superb acting skills on the screen, Song Jia's emotional world seems to be more colorful, attracting attention, and has become a hot topic of public discussion.
Every choice she makes, whether it is the pinnacle of her career or the twists and turns on her emotional path, all show the tenacity and responsibility of an independent woman in the face of life and emotional challenges.
[1] A star in the film industry where beauty and wisdom coexist
In January 1962, Song Jia was born in Qingdao, Shandong Province in a family with certain assets, and her growth path was not as smooth as it seemed.
Her father died early when she was still young, so Song Jia had to learn to be independent and self-reliant early.
Despite the changes in her family, the hardships of life have not denied her beauty and talent, but forged her tenacious character and lofty ambitions.
Time came to 1981, at this time Song Jia was already slim, only 19 years old, she was not only tall, but also outstanding, beautiful and moving.
Whenever she stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself like a fairy in the mirror, Song Jia felt a strong desire in her heart: "With such beauty, it would be a pity not to be a movie star."
As long as I work hard, I will definitely be able to break into a world of my own in the film and television industry.
With such a belief, she did not discuss too much with her family, so she resolutely applied for the Shanghai Theater Academy, hoping to realize her acting dream through professional study.
During the same period, other figures in society were also struggling to move forward on their own life tracks.
Zhang Xuejin, a big figure who has long been famous in the opera industry, was 40 years old at the time.
Despite his impressive career achievements, his married life was not as successful as it was on the stage.
The marriage with Tsing Yi Huang Ruping finally broke down in the trivialities and contradictions of life, and the two chose to divorce and each opened a new chapter in their lives.
In Beijing, the young Yu Min was studying photography at the Beijing Broadcasting Institute, when he was only 23 years old, full of love and pursuit of art, and devoted himself to the study and exploration of the world of light and shadow.
Another young man, Cai Cheng, is working in the system and working for the Ministry of Health Publishing House, engaged in publishing-related work.
He is still three years away from co-founding Vanke, a well-known real estate company, with Wang Shi.
In the Belgian business world, there is a businessman named Stephen, who is crawling in the business world, accumulating experience and laying the foundation for future success.
Beauty, for women who do not have the ability and wisdom, may become a disaster, attracting the envy and criticism of others, and may even fall into trouble.
For a woman like Song Jia, who is both capable and wise, beauty becomes a plus point for their success, like icing on the cake, adding more brilliance to their lives.
Fortunately, Song Jia is such a woman who has successfully broken out on the road of acting by virtue of her own strength and beauty.
[2] The year-old love between the school flower Song Jia and the Peking Opera master Zhang Xuejin
In the Shanghai Theater Academy, where there are so many beautiful women, Song Jia sits firmly on the throne of the school flower with her outstanding appearance and temperament.
Song Jia in college life developed an independent personality early, which is probably related to her lack of fatherly love since she was a child, which makes her accustomed to solving problems by herself.
During her time at the school, she made full use of her spare time to participate in various activities, such as shooting small advertisements and print model posters, which not only trained her, but also accumulated a lot of contacts and resources for her.
In her sophomore year, Song Jia began to play some small roles in film and television dramas, and gradually gained a firm foothold in the entertainment industry.
Not only that, she was also invited to serve as the substitute host of a program on Tianjin Satellite TV.
It was in such a novel and tense work occasion that Song Jia met a different man - Zhang Xuejin, who was born in a Peking Opera family.
Zhang Xuejin's performance in the show is eye-catching, he talks elegantly, behaves calmly, and exudes a kind of temperament of a dragon and phoenix among people, which deeply attracted Song Jia.
Zhang Xuejin's every performance on stage made the audience applaud thunderously, and Song Jia was even more impressed by his artistic talent.
Song Jia, who has no background in the entertainment industry, has seven points of admiration and three points of longing for Zhang Xuejin, and she decided to take the initiative to pursue it.
After the recording of the show, Song Jia asked Zhang Xuejin for an autograph as a little fan backstage, taking this opportunity to open the topic, and then communicate with him and successfully exchange contact information.
At that time, Zhang Xuejin had just ended a marriage and was in the stage of loneliness and depression.
Song Jia's appearance was like a warm sun, bringing emotional comfort to Zhang Xuejin.
Ignoring the 21-year-old age gap, the two gradually developed into old friends.
After the trip to Tianjin, Song Jia often kept in touch with Zhang Xuejin and shared their lives.
When she learned that Zhang Xuejin's father, Zhang Junqiu, was a well-known artist in the Peking Opera industry, Song Jia took the initiative to visit and was loved by Zhang Xuejin's parents.
Zhang's father saw his son's good impression of Song Jia, which contributed to the further warming of the relationship between the two.
With the encouragement of Zhang's father, Zhang Xuejin confessed to Song Jia, and the two quickly fell in love, and entered the palace of marriage just three months later.
Although Song Jia had not finished her studies at this time, she married Zhang Xuejin, who was 21 years older than her and had a history of marriage, a decision that caused a lot of controversy inside and outside the school, but Song Jia didn't care, because she realized that this marriage would change her life.
After marriage, Song Jia's quality of life has been significantly improved, and Zhang Xuejin is not only her lover, but also gives her great support and care in life.
Because Zhang Xuejin is older than her, he is more mature and stable in his approach to things, which gives Song Jia an unprecedented sense of psychological security.
This marriage that crossed the age gap, although it was not favored at first, Song Jia firmly believed that she had made the right choice, because she gained true love and a stable life to rely on.
[3] From "career mentor" to winning the Hundred Flowers Award twice
Song Jia once revealed in an interview that the main reason why she chose to enter the marriage hall with Zhang Xuejin was to value his career success and rich life experience, and believed that he could be her mentor and friend and guide her life path.
After getting married, Song Jia did not return to the family like the traditional concept and teach her husband and children with peace of mind, but firmly continued to pursue her acting career, hoping to create a world in this field.
In 1984, Song Jia played the role of Little Dew Drop in the movie "Gold Rush King", playing on the same stage with veteran actor Niu Ben, she successfully won the recognition and love of the audience with her unique temperament and excellent acting skills, thus truly opening her acting career.
In terms of family, Song Jia also did a good job, and in 1988 ushered in the birth of her daughter Zhang Chuchu, making her small family more complete and warm.
At the same time, Song Jia's acting career is also steadily rising.
In 1990, she successfully portrayed the role of Zhang Hanyan in the movie "Deep Courtyard", and with her excellent performance, she won the Best Actress Award at the 13th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Award at the age of 28.
Then, in 1991, Song Jia won the Best Actress of the 14th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Award again with her wonderful performance in the movie "Falling Mountain Wind", and won the award for two consecutive years, making her acting career reach an unprecedented peak.
It is worth mentioning that when discussing the film "Falling Mountain Wind", I have to mention another rumored figure related to Song Jia - Liu Yijun.
It is reported that Liu Yijun was banned in the entertainment industry for ten years because he offended Song Jia during the filming, and he was not able to reappear on the screen until recent years, which also added some controversial colors to Song Jia's road to success.
[4] Liu Yijun: From the male protagonist of "Falling Mountain Wind" to ten years of silence
When Liu Yijun was in his second year of college, fate seemed to have opened a door to the film and television industry for him.
At that time, the crew of the movie "Falling Mountain Wind" was recruiting actors, and director Bai Shen fell in love with Liu Yijun, who had a unique temperament and great potential, among many candidates, and decided to let him play an important role as the male protagonist in the play, and the heroine who partnered with him was Song Jia, who was already quite famous at that time.
This is undoubtedly an excellent starting point for the young Liu Yijun's acting career, and he is looking forward to taking this opportunity to show his talent and officially enter the film and television industry.
Twists of fate often come unexpectedly.
Not long after the movie started, Liu Yijun encountered a bolt from the blue - he was "ruthlessly" "kicked out" by the crew, and he had no chance to continue to participate in this work that should have been the starting point of his career.
This sudden change can be imagined as a big blow to Liu Yijun.
Since then, he was expected to have a smooth star career, as if he had been forgotten by the film and television industry, and he did not receive any invitation to a drama for a long time.
Faced with such a grim reality, Liu Yijun had to temporarily let go of his dedication to acting and return to his hometown Xi'an to make another living.
At Xi'an Film Studio, Liu Yijun found a job as a transcriptionist, although this job was far from his dream, but he could only barely make ends meet in the situation of having no scenes to shoot and living in a difficult situation.
In this way, Liu Yijun spent a long ten years in obscurity, and his acting career fell into an unprecedented trough.
Looking back on this gloomy time, people can't help but feel sorry for what happened to Liu Yijun.
His appearance when he was young was amazing, and his acting skills had no lack of potential, and he should have been able to shine in the film and television industry, but due to various unknown reasons, his career was ruthlessly suppressed before he really started, which is really sighing "born at the wrong time".
Life will always bring a little comfort to people inadvertently.
After Liu Yijun went through vicissitudes and made a comeback in middle age, although he can only play supporting roles in film and television dramas in most cases, his acting skills and appearance are still online, bringing many wonderful performances to the audience.
What's even more gratifying is that his son has also entered the showbiz and begun to emerge, which to a certain extent makes up for some regrets in Liu Yijun's heart and adds a touch of warmth to his life.
Regarding the reason why Liu Yijun suffered a career waterloo in his early years, there are many versions of rumors circulating in the market.
One theory is that he was young and frivolous, ignorant of the world, and inadvertently offended Song Jia, who was in a pivotal position in the crew at that time, which led to being "removed" by the crew.
Another theory says that Liu Yijun's overly upright personality may be incompatible with some unspoken rules in the entertainment industry, causing him to be excluded.
Whatever the claim, it's just unsubstantiated rumors.
As bystanders, we are not eyewitnesses, and we have no way to verify the unverified details and the real motives behind them, nor should we judge the actions of the parties involved.
After all, everyone's life has its own complexities, twists and turns, and only the person concerned knows best.
[5] Song Jia and Zhang Xuejin's joys and sorrows and public opinion turmoil
Just when Song Jia's acting career was thriving and her family life was happy, an accident happened.
One day in October 1991, her daughter Zhang Chuchu accidentally knocked over the kettle at home, and the boiling water instantly scalded Zhang Xuejin's left foot.
At that time, Zhang Xuejin was preparing to perform on stage in the Peking Opera classic "The Finishing Touch", the performance poster had been widely disseminated, and the tickets were sold out, but this sudden accident made him unable to put on tight opera boots and could not achieve the best performance.
In order to recover as soon as possible and perform as scheduled, Zhang Xuejin listened to rumors and chose blood transfusion therapy to speed up his recovery, but this decision led to disastrous consequences - he contracted hepatitis C as a result.
In the following months, Zhang Xuejin not only failed to perform as he wished, but his physical condition deteriorated, with symptoms such as general weakness, severe joint pain, nausea and vomiting, and he was confirmed to be infected with hepatitis C.
Knowing that the disease was incurable and contagious at the time, and that daily life required strict isolation, Zhang Xuejin's spirit was devastated, and his personality changed, and the elegance and poetry of the past were replaced by endless quarrels.
Faced with high treatment costs and the cruel reality, Song Jia resolutely put aside her acting career and went all out to accompany her husband to seek medical treatment from place to place.
Even though the family's savings were quickly depleted, and he even did not hesitate to use his hard-earned salary to pay for the high medical bills, his condition still did not improve.
Under the pessimistic predictions of doctors and the increasingly tense family atmosphere, in 1993, Song Jia made a painful decision - filed for divorce from Zhang Xuejin.
The specific reasons for this divorce incident were not disclosed to the public, but in the eyes of the public who did not know the truth, Song Jia became a typical representative of turning her back on her sick husband and pursuing her personal future.
Some media took this opportunity to write a large number of articles with the theme of "Husbands and wives in distress, going their separate ways at critical moments", and public opinion has labeled Song Jia as "ungrateful", "abandoning her husband and abandoning illness" and even "poisonous woman", and even angry with her innocent daughter, accusing her naughty behavior of indirectly harming her father.
In the face of overwhelming accusations and criticism, Song Jia chose to remain silent, completed the division of property in a low-key manner, left the house, and took her five-year-old daughter to the United States to enter Yale University to continue her studies in editing and directing.
Despite the divorce, Song Jia and Zhang Xuejin have always maintained a friend relationship, and they have never broken off contact for many years, and they have spent those difficult years together.
[6] Meet a real estate tycoon and start a new chapter in your life
In 1996, Song Jia ended her study career in the United States, returned to China with talent and ambition, and decided to cross over to become a TV series producer in order to practice her film and television concept.
It was at this time that she met Yu Min, who aspired to transform into a director, and the two hit it off on the concept and worked together to create the TV series "Sister-in-law".
This work received a warm response after it was broadcast in 1999, and Song Jia won the "Outstanding Actress Award of the Chinese TV Drama Feitian Award" and the "Five One Project Award" of the Central Propaganda Department with her wonderful interpretation in the play.
Yu Min's love for Song Jia was hot and firm, and even despite his married status, he publicly said that he understood the meaning of true love only when he met Song Jia.
In order to be with Song Jia openly, Yu Min decided to divorce his original wife, which caused a lot of public opinion at the time.
The huge pressure of the divorce lawsuit and cooperating with Zhang Jizhong to prepare for the filming of "The Condor Heroes" made Yu Min have no time to take care of Song Jia's feelings, and the relationship between the two gradually cooled down.
After feeling cold, Song Jia chose to break up with Yu Min because she met another man who cared for her - Cai Cheng.
Cai Cheng is well-known in the real estate industry, as early as 1984, he co-founded Vanke Co., Ltd. with Wang Shi, and has accumulated hundreds of millions of family properties, and is a veritable rich.
Song Jia and Cai Cheng have actually had a relationship, the two have known each other for a long time, and they have long had secret feelings for each other, but because Song Jia had not yet dissolved their marriage with Zhang Xuejin at that time, this relationship could only be temporarily hidden deep in their hearts.
Now that the two meet again, the excitement and passion of the past are awakened again, and they naturally come together.
After falling in love with Cai Cheng, Song Jia's acting career did not stagnate, but ushered in a new peak.
Her role as "Mrs. Toast" in the TV series "The Dust Settles" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and won the "Audience's Favorite Actress Award" and "Most Popular Award" of the China TV Golden Eagle Award in one fell swoop.
After that, Song Jia successively starred in many popular works such as "Once Upon a Time in Peking" and "The Years of Song", which are inseparable from Cai Cheng's strong support in terms of funds and resources.
Cai Cheng's existence not only brought love nourishment to Song Jia, but also injected new vitality into her acting career.
[7] Song Jia's biological father is a mystery, and her ex-husband Zhang Xuejin died of cancer
The hand of time is turned back to 2004, when Song Jia was 42 years old, but at this time she brought unexpected news to the world - she gave birth to a son.
In the eyes of the public, the child's father is naturally considered to be Cai Cheng, who had a relationship with Song Jia.
In the face of speculation from the outside world, Cai Cheng did not admit it, which made the life experience of this newborn even more confusing.
What's even more confusing is that Song Jia named this youngest son "Zhang Shuaishuai", and the choice of this surname undoubtedly aroused widespread associations.
Because at that time, Song Jia did not have any news of dating any man surnamed Zhang, so the identity of the child's biological father became an unsolved mystery.
Although the scandal between Song Jia and Cai Cheng has been rumored for many years, the relationship between the two has never been able to move forward, and it has always stayed in a state of imminent separation.
The arrangement of fate is sometimes so wonderful, because of the existence of her daughter Zhang Chuchu, Song Jia and her ex-husband Zhang Xuejin re-established contact after the divorce.
Whenever Song Jia came to Beijing, she would visit Zhang Xuejin, and when Zhang Xuejin went to Qingdao to visit her daughter, she would also choose to live in Song Jia's home.
This seemingly ordinary visit actually contains a kind of kinship bond that transcends the marital relationship.
After Zhang Xuejin divorced Song Jia, he chose to tie the knot with his father's apprentice Zhang Limin.
Zhang Limin is more than ten years younger than Zhang Xuejin, and when she studied opera with Mr. Zhang Junqiu in her early years, she had a deep affection for this senior brother.
Later, Zhang Limin changed careers to engage in the real estate industry, and her career has also achieved good results.
The two reunited at the ticket holders' party and performed opera together, and since then they have often learned skills together, and their relationship has become deeper and deeper.
Fate did not favor the remarried couple.
In 2008, Zhang Limin learned that Zhang Xuejin had contracted hepatitis due to a blood transfusion, so she persuaded him to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination.
Unfortunately, the test results showed that Zhang Xuejin was suffering from liver cancer.
Because there was no elevator in the fourth-floor residence where Zhang Xuejin lived, it was extremely inconvenient to go up and down the stairs, so Zhang Limin took him to his home to take care of him.
Zhang Xuejin was deeply moved by Zhang Limin's dedication, and in order to prevent the outside world from misunderstanding the relationship between the two, Zhang Limin offered to apply for a marriage certificate with Zhang Xuejin, so as to take care of him through the last four springs and autumns of his life.
In 2012, Zhang Xuejin's condition deteriorated sharply, and before his death, what he longed for most was to see his daughter Zhang Chuchu again.
At that time, Zhang Chuchu was filming in other places, and he couldn't rush home in time to see his father for the last time.
After Zhang Xuejin passed away, according to his last wishes, he planned to leave the inheritance to his wife Zhang Limin, who had been with him.
Zhang Limin resolutely rejected the inheritance, and she chose to transfer all the 600,000 deposits and a set of real estate in Zhang Xuejin's name to Zhang Chuchu's name under the witness of everyone.
In the face of Zhang Limin's move, Zhang Chuchu didn't seem to appreciate it.
She posted an intriguing text on social media: "After taking the money, shut your mouth and set up an archway."
The implication is that Zhang Chuchu seems to be dissatisfied with Zhang Limin's acceptance of monetary gifts from Zhang Xuejin during his lifetime.
For these complex internal family affairs, it is difficult for us as outsiders to make accurate judgments, and the rights and wrongs are probably only known to the parties themselves.
[8] From the big heroine to the jewelry designer mother, and then to the winner of a transnational marriage
Even without the company of her other half, Song Jia still maintains an independent and strong female demeanor.
After her daughter Zhang Chuchu grew up, she carefully planned for her daughter's future, and the first step was to let Zhang Chuchu be admitted to the Shanghai Theater Academy, with the help of her connections in the entertainment industry, so that her brothers and sisters could take more care.
After her daughter graduated, Song Jia spared no effort to pave the way for her daughter's acting career, and took Zhang Chuchu to frequently appear on various talk shows to tell about the family's past, including Zhang Chuchu's accidental scalding of his father when he was a child, which caused his father to be sick for many years and indirectly triggered the tragedy of his parents' divorce, which made Zhang Chuchu feel deeply guilty.
Compared with her mother, Zhang Chuchu's development in the entertainment industry is not satisfactory, although she has participated in many film and television dramas such as "Da Jiangdong Go", "Inheritance", "The Day of Pursuing Happiness", but she has never been able to attract great attention, and the road to acting is quite difficult.
After recognizing the reality, Song Jia actively found another way for her daughter, matchmaking, so that Zhang Chuchu could transform into a jewelry designer, and devoted her heart and soul to helping her daughter open up a new path in life.
In 2017, when Song Jia was traveling abroad, she met Stephen, a wealthy Belgian, and the two fell in love at first sight, and were pleasantly surprised to find that they were born on the same day.
Not long after, Song Jia, who was over half a hundred years old, resolutely decided to remarry and walked into the palace of marriage hand in hand with Stephen.
Now, 62-year-old Song Jia has faded out of the entertainment industry for 7 years, and has turned into a successful capitalist, no longer limited by the identity of a young actor, but has more autonomy and choice.
She and her husband Stephen settled overseas and ran their own clothing brand store together, and the business was booming.
Under the nourishment of love, Song Jia doesn't look like an old man who is over the age of six, but looks like she has lost 20 years old, and she is getting younger and younger.
