If you just look at the photo, can you still tell who the woman in the photo is?
Compared with the amateur next to her, the woman doesn't look like a star at all. Her skin is dull yellow, her hair is messy, and her eyes are very vicissitudes, making it difficult to identify her.
But as early as 30 years ago, she was the "originator of the sweet girl" who won the third runner-up of Miss Hong Kong with her amazing appearance! That's right, she is the cute and clever "Little Guo Xiang" Li Qihong in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
What happened to our childhood goddess to become what she is now?
Today's female stars in the entertainment industry want to market themselves as "sweet girls", but compared with Li Qihong, the "grandmother" in the sweet girl world, they are really unqualified.
With her lovely appearance, Li Qihong co-starred with Liming as a couple as soon as she debuted. As a result, Liming fell in love with the lovely and beautiful Li Qihong, and even confessed to her many times, looking forward to a sweet love.
In the face of a good man like Liming, Li Qihong was actually very moved, but after thinking about it, she finally rejected Liming.
It turns out that although Li Qihong always looks smiling on the screen, she has a very difficult time in real life.
Her mother has hereditary mental illness and is undergoing treatment, and the reason why Li Qihong entered the entertainment industry is also to earn money for her mother's medical treatment.
After learning the true situation of Li Qihong, Liming was even more distressed, and he said that he was willing to accompany Li Qihong to tide over the difficulties, but Li Qihong still rejected him.
She relied on her own strength to climb and roll in the entertainment industry, first shining with "The Condor Heroes", and then acting in many classic film and television dramas such as "The Peerless Double Pride" and "Golden Branches and Jade Leaves 2", which brought many good memories to our childhood.
However, Li Qihong, who worked so hard to change her fate, still failed to escape the sanction of fate after all. At the peak of her career, Li Qihong's hereditary psychosis attacked.
She had to give up her acting career, bid farewell to the fans who had always supported her, and came abroad for treatment alone.
The treatment process was very painful, and Li Qihong almost couldn't hold on several times, but in 2004, a Canadian man named Corey came to her side.
The man has always accompanied Li Qihong with warmth and tolerance, encouraging her to go on bravely. The relationship between the two warmed up day and night, and later entered the palace of marriage naturally.
After getting married, her husband built a house for Li Qihong in the mountains and forests suitable for recuperation and accompanied her for treatment. Under the careful care of her husband, Li Qihong's condition finally improved, and later returned to China to make the movie "Beijing Falls in Love with Seattle".
Because of the torture of perennial illness and the increase in age, the current Li Qihong is no longer as beautiful as she used to be. Her face was spotted and her skin became saggy, making her an ordinary 54-year-old.
She accepts her changes, and often releases her happy and laughing makeup on social media, which is in stark contrast to actresses of the same age.
Everyone will grow old, but few people accept their old selves like Li Qihong.
As ordinary viewers, we don't need to feel sorry for Li Qihong's changes, as long as her character and beauty remain in our hearts, it is enough.
