The poor boy is on the stage and lives like a spotlight
In recent years, as long as they see Mr. Wang Gang's wrinkled old face on the screen, the audience will invariably sigh: "Hey, Old Man He Shen has come out to move his muscles again!"
In and out of the play, the audience has long equated Wang Gang with his iconic Qing Dynasty and Shen Yijiao. It became popular with dramas such as "Jiashen Three Uniques" and "Iron Tooth Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan", and now it is famous in history, and the achievements are well deserved.
When we really approached this national treasure, we found that his ups and downs in life were far more exciting than any role on the stage. A child from a poor background and a middle-class family, with his tenacious fighting spirit and extraordinary artistic talent, stepped onto the stage of life step by step, and still worked hard for his son in his old age, this is the bizarre life of Mr. Wang Gang that is little known.
The emotional world is full of ups and downs, and the third room was abandoned by his wife and children
When it comes to Wang Gang's emotional life, it is really ridiculous. , an old drama bone who is praised by the audience as the "love saint", can be described as a frustration and countless sufferings on the road of feelings. His first marriage was with his first girlfriend Du Xiaojuan when he was in his 20s. Soon after the artist couple got married, Wang Gang began to work hard in his career, running day and night for his dreams, and gradually neglected to take care of his family. In the end, when no one cared about her married life for a long time, Du Xiaojuan chose to divorce.
finally survived the first "hurdle" of life, Wang Gang did not stop there, but soon came together with the young and beautiful stage beauty Li Jiale, and the two fell in love and showed affection for 5 years.
Who knew that the good times would not last long, Li Jiale later suffered a career waterloo after an accidental injury, and gradually became discouraged and patient with Wang Gang. After marriage, the lives of the two were incompatible, and after being entangled for 3 years, they finally divorced for the second time. The collapse of the short-lived marriage of the young couple completely lost the confidence of Wang Gang, who had suffered a lot in the emotional world several times. Seeing that most of his peers were already full of grandchildren, he once felt that loneliness was doomed.
It wasn't until he was 60 years old that he met and got to know a woman who was 30 years younger than him, Zheng Yandong, and finally achieved a positive result. At first, the peculiar age gap made the outside world question this marriage, questioning whether Wang Gang was "sick" and "mid-life crisis".
Most of the relatives and friends around him are also opposed and are not optimistic about this marriage. But Wang Gang and Zheng Yandong are in love, and he said more bluntly: "I just like young and beautiful, as long as she is willing to marry me, we will be together!"
In this way, with the remaining courage and a bit of desperateness, the pair of dogs and girls married against age, and finally won the recognition and blessing of their families.
The eldest son was born unexpectedly and was in trouble again in his later years
may be a coincidence given to Wang Gang by God, 5 years after Zheng Yandong married into a wealthy family, this 30-year-old "weird couple" was happy with a noble son. A 60-year-old man was able to unexpectedly get pregnant and give birth to a child, and the news shocked the entire entertainment industry. Some people praised Wang Gang for being "unswerving", while others were worried about whether the child would be discriminated against in the future.
In short, the family was very happy, and Wang Gang and Zheng Yandong also named their late son Wang Ming, which means "late is still bright". For a time, the Wang family could be described as prosperous and lively. The good times didn't last long, Wang Ming had just passed his elementary school days, and the heavy burden of raising him crushed Wang Gang, who was over the age of six.
Especially after Wang Ming went to junior high school, his living expenses and tuition fees added up to tens of thousands of yuan per month, and he had already passed the peak of his career and had a meager income. Wang Gang can only scrape together and barely survive by making a few endorsements.
What bothers Wang Gang even more is that he has already entered his old age, and there is a large generation of sand between him and his son. Wang Ming was rebellious and willful in his adolescence, but he, who was a father, had no choice but to be "useless" to his son.
Once, Wang Gang simply confided to the audience during the live broadcast: "You say, do I want another one?" It has aroused heated discussions among netizens. It is indeed a sympathetic thing for an old man in his 70s to raise his 10-year-old son alone. Although relatives and friends applauded Wang Gang's tenacity and perseverance, they also broke their hearts for him.
Many colleagues have persuaded Wang Gang that he should enjoy happiness in his old age and stop struggling, but this stubborn old man obviously refuses to give up. He said confidently: "Wang Ming is the baby that my wife and I are longing for, if I am reluctant to raise him personally, wouldn't I be sorry for him?"
Day after day, Wang Gang struggled with being a father and making money to support his family. He even had to shut down his social media accounts because of his limited energy and could no longer support the effort to interact online.
Despite this, Wang Gang, who has reached the twilight of his life, is actually long past the age of physical ability, and now he often has trembling hands and staggering walking. But he is still happy to support his family with his precious old age, supported by his obsession with the script and his love for his son.
Compared with those young actors who seem to be full of ambition and the pride of the sky, this old actor has more admirable things - tenacity, courage and responsibility. Some people say that Wang Gang is like a tenacious old tree, gritting his teeth and insisting on living no matter the wind or rain.
It's just a pity that when he was almost 80 years old, the fruit of the tree of life was already hopeless. Long-term fatigue and hard work have made Wang Gang's health worse. Not long ago, he suddenly fainted after an activity and was rushed to the hospital. It was diagnosed as a result of prostration of the body caused by chronic lack of sleep and malnutrition. The doctor sternly warned Wang Gang that if he didn't rest and recuperate, he was afraid that disaster would come out of his mouth.
In the face of the doctor's warning, Wang Gang seemed a little helpless. He said: "You have all seen it, I am now busy taking care of my son's life all day long, where can I have time to rest? If I just lie in bed and rest so honestly, where will the money come from to support Wang Ming?"
Yes, where does the money come from? This question has always haunted Wang Gang's mind. Wang Ming's tuition and living expenses for one year alone cost hundreds of thousands. And Wang Gang now has very few acting opportunities, and his income is not as good as before. If it weren't for some old colleagues and friends who reached out from time to time, the Wang family's livelihood would really be in a desperate situation.
Sometimes Wang Gang also wonders if he made the wrong decision in the first place. If Wang Ming hadn't been born later, maybe he would have been able to enjoy his family and live a carefree life in his old age. But when he thought of the poor child, Wang Gang's heart softened again. It is too cruel for a person's life to be abandoned by his biological father in the world.
So, Wang Gang gritted his teeth and decided to make a last stand. He invested all the hospitalization fees from the last hospital into the production of a new play, and spent all his savings on it. "If this drama doesn't sell well, I'll have to wait until I die. When Wang Gang said this, his tone was firm and guilty, "Let my son suffer this one sin, I have done my best." "
Wang Gang's vitality
The new drama "The Twists and Turns of the Shou Road" is finally like a life-saving straw from afar, bringing Wang Gang a ray of life. In it, he once again played an old man who looked a little like himself, describing a poor old man who had to struggle between life and death in order to support his family.
Although the film was only released in theaters for a week before being withdrawn, Wang Gang's superb acting skills and close-to-life plot still won a lot of praise. At least for the time being, it solved his immediate needs. An epidemic has made Wang Gang's acting career even worse. With very few jobs, and Wang Ming also reached high school, the cost of tuition and living expenses skyrocketed.
Even so, Wang Gang gritted his teeth and persevered. At the end of life, perhaps each of us will become stubborn and stubborn like Wang Gang. Because we all understand that the road of life is tortuous and impermanent, and only the persistence of family affection and a sense of responsibility are the reasons for us to persevere.
I wish Wang Gang, a brave father, can cross his son Wang Ming through the last line of defense rain or shine, and exchange his precious energy for his son to get ahead once and for all. When that day comes, he can completely let go of his worries, close his tired eyes with peace of mind, and say to himself: "My life is worth it!"
