Preface
This year, Chi Zhiqiang is 66 years old, and he is very low-key, but he has been insisting on filming.
Last year, he participated in the filming of the movies "Bridge" and "Ice and Snow Sniper 2".
In 2022, he participated in the TV series "How Big Can It Be", and in 2021, he starred in the movie "Operation Sweeping the Black Storm".
In addition, Chi Zhiqiang has also settled in the Douyin short video platform and has been updating his life content one after another.
Today, that is, on the 23rd, Chi Zhiqiang's Douyin account continued to post 5 videos, using videos to tell netizens about his artistic life, his career as an actor, and his social life that is different from now.
Chi Zhiqiang is also an old actor, he is an actor of the same era as Liu Xiaoqing, and the films he shoots and the records he releases have more or less influenced a generation.
In the video, he is in really good condition, his hair is not topped, and although there are wrinkles on his face, he is very fair and energetic.
He spoke unhurriedly, patiently telling about his former career as an actor, in great detail, and many netizens left messages in the comment area below.
In addition to filming, Mr. Chi Zhiqiang will also participate in some activities, sing his own songs at the venue, his voice is strong, he is also very kind, and shakes hands with everyone with a smile.
Nowadays, Douyin live streaming is on the rise, and some celebrities will live broadcast to make money in their spare time, and Mr. Chi Zhiqiang is no exception.
However, the main purpose of Mr. Chi Zhiqiang's live broadcast is to support farmers, for example, some time ago, Chi Zhiqiang came to Hainan to help local farmers sell the mangoes they planted.
And some time ago, others went to Fengyang Town, Shouning County, Fujian Province, to help farmers there sell tea and so on.
Chi Zhiqiang is very familiar to people of the previous generation, and everyone must know what he experienced when he was young.
That is, Chi Zhiqiang has been imprisoned for more than two years.
Good behave, early release from prison
At that time, I had just entered the prison, and the environment inside was very bad, the floor was full of straw, and occasionally there would be some rats and cockroaches.
In just one month, Chi Zhiqiang's weight dropped sharply, he was sluggish all day long, and he lost hope for life.
A man who was also in prison, who was more than ten years older than Chi Zhiqiang, saw that he had rarely communicated with people since he came in, and he instantly understood what this young man was thinking.
He came to Chi Zhiqiang's side and said: Young man, you are still so young, so you came in?
Later, I learned that Chi Zhiqiang was sentenced to 4 years, and said to Chi Zhiqiang: It's less than 30 when I go out, I'm young, why are you so decadent!
Chi Zhiqiang began to live a good life in prison, he was originally an actor, he was endowed with talent, and he has been encouraging his fellow inmates with his singing.
Whenever there is a literary and artistic activity, everyone thinks of Chi Zhiqiang, and Chi Zhiqiang does not shirk it at all, and also establishes the Prisoner Art Troupe.
At the same time, Chi Zhiqiang himself also created a song "Tears in the Iron Window", and later after being released from prison, Chi Zhiqiang made a comeback, and this song has been widely circulated.
Because of his good behavior, Chi Zhiqiang was given the opportunity to have his sentence commuted, and he was released from prison early in 1986.
From actors to prisoners
Here's what it looks like:
Chi Zhiqiang has a hearty personality and likes to make friends, Chi Zhiqiang came to Nanjing and met a group of friends, and his friends are also very righteous
Slowly, Chi Zhiqiang's relationship with this group of friends is getting better and better, and he helps them as much as possible.
However, the year was 1982, and people were still generally very conservative, and they still couldn't dance in public.
Chi Zhiqiang and his friends organized a group of people to dance in the room, both men and women, boys and girls hugged and danced face to face.
Chi Zhiqiang is an actor in Changchun Film Studio, so naturally many people know him.
That year, Chi Zhiqiang was only 25 years old, a young man, and a girl hugged and danced face to face, and both of them couldn't help blushing.
This is not the first time that friends have secretly organized a dance party, and the number of times it will inevitably make people outside find out.
No matter how low the sound of the music is, the neighbors outside will also hear it, especially since they have seen Chi Zhiqiang.
At this time, the neighbors will say: their house is a "gangster's den", and that movie actor is also messing with them.
Later, a girl who met Chi Zhiqiang at the dance party boldly asked Chi Zhiqiang. He was so excited that he didn't sleep all night, thinking about it all the time.
Although Chi Zhiqiang already had a girlfriend at that time, but the man couldn't resist the temptation.
The next day, Chi Zhiqiang came to the girl's house as promised, and what Chi Zhiqiang wanted to do last night became a reality.
In those days, it was illegal for unmarried men and women to cohabit illegally.
But Chi Zhiqiang's matter is really nothing now, at most it is a style problem, and he was deducted the title of a "scumbag".
Let's talk a few words, eat melons, and see the excitement is gone.
But time rewinds to the 80s, the nature is different, the era is different, and the society is different.
At that time, in order to rectify the social atmosphere and crack down on criminal offenses in an all-round way, some people later couldn't get used to it, so they sued Chi Zhiqiang and the dance party they organized.
During the investigation, because Chi Zhiqiang was an actor on the screen, he was a familiar face to most people, and everyone said that Chi Zhiqiang was involved.
At the beginning, the Public Security Bureau originally wanted Chi Zhiqiang's film studio to deal with it internally, but then an article "Stars on the Screen, Criminals in Life" was published.
It caused heated discussions in society, and the Public Security Bureau had to make a new deal with Chi Zhiqiang again, so in 1984, Chi Zhiqiang was sentenced to 4 years in prison on suspicion of "hooliganism".
From the movie actors on the screen to the prisoners in prisons, the treatment is so different that no one can bear it.
However, fortunately, Chi Zhiqiang has already repented.
Down-to-earth and start all over again
After Chi Zhiqiang was released from prison, Changchun Film Studio immediately found Chi Zhiqiang, hoping that Chi Zhiqiang could return to the studio again.
Because he has just been released from prison, Chi Zhiqiang can only start from the bottom, not as an actor anymore, doing some trivial chores such as carrying things and repairing things.
At that time, everyone was generally simple-minded, and there were not so many intrigues, and when Chi Zhiqiang met his colleagues who were also actors, he did not receive strange eyes from them.
As if they didn't know what happened to Chi Zhiqiang, they still regarded him as a colleague, which made Chi Zhiqiang deeply reflect on his own behavior.
Later, Chi Zhiqiang regained his identity as an actor and filmed the TV series "Second Class Inspector and Coachman".
Chi Zhiqiang also had a girlfriend Chi Daiying, and in the second year after marriage, his son Chi Xunan was born!
Chi Zhiqiang attaches great importance to his son's education, because his bad experience has led to earth-shaking changes in his life, and he doesn't want his son to go the wrong way in the future.
The son is growing up day by day, Chi Zhiqiang is very strict with his son's academic requirements, there are pros and cons, because he is too strict, the relationship between the father and son is a little bad, and sometimes the son will get angry and quarrel.
But Chi Xunan's grades have always been very good, and he was later admitted to a well-known university in China.
epilogue
In the song "Tears in the Iron Window" written by himself, Chi Zhiqiang integrated all the feelings he experienced at that time into this song.
It begins with the fact that the greatest tragedy in life is the loss of freedom......
Although he has made mistakes, he can correct them in time and reflect on himself.
Today's Chi Zhiqiang has a happy life, a smooth career, and occasional live broadcasts, and his life is very nourishing.
After he and his wife Chi Daiying got married, the relationship between the two has always been very good, there is no contradiction, and they have been together for decades.
His son is now a lawyer, fulfilling Chi Zhiqiang's expectations of him.
Life, ordinary is true!
