Tang Wei, who shines in the bright starlight, has not had a smooth sailing trajectory in his life. And such ups and downs began in 2004, when she starred in a TV series called "Police Flower Swallow", in which she met Tian Yu, an unknown young actor.
Surprisingly, this wonderful TV series not only allowed the audience to see the tacit cooperation between them, but also made the fate of these two on-screen couples develop at a deeper level in real life.
In the days when the two met, Tian Yu, who was just starting out, was in an embarrassing situation, and it was difficult to show his unique talent in the mixed entertainment circle.
However, he cares about Tang Wei meticulously, and whenever she encounters problems during filming, he will always carefully select nutritious supplements and personally send them to the set to replenish her energy.
This deep friendship deeply touched Tang Wei, and she firmly believed that Tian Yu was the "him" in her life.
Their love story lasted for two whole years, and both parents had already met, and everything was steadily moving towards a happy marriage.
However, fate played a joke at this moment - in 2006, the well-known director Ang Lee planned to make the movie "Lust and Caution" and threw an olive branch to Tang Wei.
This is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but it also means great challenges and sacrifices. The plot in the movie is bold and unrestrained, and the actors need to put in a lot of courage and energy to interpret the characters.
Faced with this opportunity, Tang Wei was full of contradictions in her heart, she cautiously asked Tian Yu's opinion, but was resolutely opposed by him. Tian Yu said bitterly: "Although I have endless patience with you, I can't accept you to appear in this kind of film."
After repeatedly weighing the pros and cons, Tang Wei had the determination to break his wrist and chose the path of pursuing his career. She resolutely gave up her relationship with Tian Yu and devoted herself to the filming of this controversial film.
Tian Yu couldn't understand her choice, but Tang Wei's passion for her dreams had already ignited in her heart, and she had to go all out, even if it cost her a lot of money.
As soon as the movie "Lust and Caution" came out, it caused a sensation in society at home and abroad, just like throwing a stone to stir up a thousand waves. Whether at home or abroad, this film with a bold plot and sensitive themes has suffered strong doubts and severe criticism from all walks of life, and the frenzy of public opinion has swept in again, pushing Tang Wei to the forefront.
At that time, media reports and online forums were filled with countless accusations and vicious swearing. Some people unceremoniously accused her words and deeds of "losing the dignity and identity that a woman should have", while others went even further to assert that "no one will dare to marry such a woman".
For a time, Tang Wei's professional rights and development prospects in the entertainment industry seemed to have fallen into an unprecedented predicament, and his career showed an unprecedented trough.
However, just when this storm of public opinion swept like a storm, the famous film critic Venus bravely stood up and issued a deafening cry for Tang Wei.
She asked those irrational remarks in society with a firm tone: "In today's male-dominated social environment, male dominators have quietly occupied the right to speak and speak at some point."
In the face of this wave of doubts and attacks, Tang Wei did not show too much anger or complaining, she seemed to have seen through it all.
On the contrary, after a brief period of frustration and confusion, she inspires a more tenacious and tenacious fighting spirit.
In order to break free from the shadow and reshape his self-image, Tang Wei resolutely decided to go overseas for further study, hoping to reflect deeply and constantly improve himself in the process.
In the difficult years when Tang Wei was questioned and his future was uncertain, an unexpected turning point appeared. It turned out that as early as three years ago in 2010, she had collaborated with the well-known Korean director Kim Tae-yong to shoot the movie "Late Autumn".
Although the two sides were just ordinary partners at that time and there was no spark, but now that they meet again in Seoul, the two suddenly have a new emotion and perception of each other.
Perhaps it was Kim Tae-yong's unique oriental gentlemanly demeanor that deeply moved Tang Wei, or it may be that Tang Wei's independent and free temperament attracted this talented director.
In any case, after many in-depth conversations, an indescribable subtle emotion gradually grew in the hearts of the two.
So, in 2013, when Tang Wei set foot on South Korean soil for the second time to perform a theatrical mission, the two met unexpectedly again. This reunion made them feel more fond of each other than they had three years ago.
A flame of love burned silently in the hearts of the two of them, and the ripples of affection naturally spread between them.
There is no doubt that Tang Wei did not regard this beautiful marriage as a blind pursuit of "seeking immortals". On the contrary, in order to settle down as soon as possible, she decisively agreed to Kim Tae-yong's affectionate marriage proposal.
So, after three years of tempering, their love finally embarked on a solid step on the road to the palace of marriage.
However, not long after the joy of her fiancé's proposal was mentioned, a sudden test came - Kim Tae-yong's mother had deep doubts about the marriage.
This traditional Korean elder believes that there is a big gap between Tang Wei's daughter-in-law from China and her son's expectations, so she solemnly told Tang Wei: "Have you ever understood that the status of Korean women in the family and society is obviously lower than that in China, and if you choose to marry into my family, you need to consider changing your nationality and changing your surname to your husband's."
Faced with his mother-in-law's frank admonition, Kim Tae-yong couldn't help but waver in his heart. However, in the face of such an unreasonable request for changing the nationality and name, Tang Wei was unswerving and always adhered to his bottom line of principles.
She resolutely responded: "No matter what kind of country I marry, I will always be a son and daughter of China and a Chinese citizen."
In the face of such a sonorous reply, the mother-in-law was speechless for a while, and seemed to have begun to reflect on her previous attitude. Although he was initially opposed by his mother-in-law because of his nationality and surname, Kim Tae-yong was gradually attracted to Tang Wei's tenacious character.
He knew that this dedication came from his deep affection for the motherland, and he appreciated and admired Tang Wei's maverick and independent spirit more and more.
Although they were opposed by their mother-in-law at first because of their nationality and surname, Tang Wei and Kim Tae-yong finally successfully entered the palace of marriage. The wedding was extravagant and unprecedented, even comparable to a royal wedding.
In order to leave a memory for his beloved fiancée that will never be forgotten, Kim Tae-yong did his best to carefully select a luxury villa in the suburbs of Seoul as the wedding venue, looking forward to creating a dreamlike wedding night for Tang Wei.
According to people familiar with the matter, Kim Tae-yong invested a huge amount of 1.4 billion yuan in this grand wedding.
From the careful layout of the scene to the orderly arrangement of all links, to the luxurious lineup of guests and the carefully prepared gifts, every detail is full of his deep affection, and he strives to create an unforgettable experience for Tang Wei.
On that exciting day, Tang Wei was draped in a pure and flawless white veil, exuding a shining and moving light. The elaborate bridal tiara adorns her beautiful face, and she steps on the magnificent crystal slippers at her feet, showing the grace and grandeur of her dress to attend.
Kim Tae-yong wore a crisp suit, showing a personable temperament, which perfectly interpreted the elegance of an oriental gentleman.
In the presence of family and friends, they exchanged rings in the sacred church and solemnly pledged their eternal love. When we see this scene, who can imagine how many storms and hardships they have endured? However, the wonder of fate lies in this, which finally binds them together.
After this grand wedding, Kim Tae-yong and Tang Wei started a new journey in life. As a director, he deeply understands and respects his wife's persistent pursuit of her career, so he never forced her to give up her dreams, but chose to settle down in Hong Kong and Seoul, which provided great convenience for their lives and careers.
