He is also a "professional household of the emperor", and even more so, a "professional household of great men", and he is called "Tang Guoqiang, an actor who carries the history of China for 5,000 years" by the older generation of audiences.
However, such an old artist with both virtue and art, with the passage of time, has not been praised as imagined.
On the contrary, he was spurned by the world, he "unscrupulously resorted" in order to make money, and even abandoned his wife and daughter for the sake of fame and fortune, and finally married another person, and he was suspected of immigrating to the United States in China to "make money".

01
Tang Guoqiang, born in Qingdao, Shandong Province in 1952, has a younger brother under him, and his parents have high expectations for their brothers.
So when Tang Guoqiang was young, his parents were relatively strict with them.
It is precisely because of the strictness of his parents that Tang Guoqiang has developed a self-disciplined, down-to-earth and persevering character since he was a child.

But Tang Guoqiang was determined to apply for the Qingdao Repertory Theatre, and directly disobeyed his father to apply for the Qingdao Repertory Theatre first.
After his father learned that Tang Guoqiang applied for the repertory troupe, he was very angry, and the relationship between the two was once incompatible.
Fortunately, under the mediation of his mother, his father finally relented and let Tang Guoqiang apply for his favorite drama troupe.
And Tang Guoqiang also successfully became a member of the repertory troupe with his excellent performance, and when he first arrived in the repertory troupe, Tang Guoqiang did not have the opportunity to perform on stage.
I can only do some chores, watch how others perform when others are rehearsing, and then figure out how others perform.
After returning to the dormitory, he practiced imitation over and over again, which laid a solid foundation for his future career performance.

When Tang Guoqiang starred in "Cold Blood", the actress he knew was magnificent, and the two were often ambiguous when filming.
Tang Guoqiang faced the magnificence of young and beautiful, and was quickly attracted to her, and the two often dated secretly.
Gradually, Tang Guoqiang forgot that he was at home, and his wife and daughter were waiting for him to come home, and when Sun Tao knew about the relationship between the two, it was too late.
Tang Guoqiang already has a deep love for magnificence, and he also made his relationship with magnificence public, and the two lived together.
Sun Tao was angry, she thought that her original efforts would make Tang Guoqiang change her mind, thinking that her daughter was still young and could break off with Zhuangli.
What she didn't expect was that Tang Guoqiang didn't go home to visit his daughter at all, and stayed by Zhuangli's side all day long, without any guilt at all.
Later, Tang Guoqiang went home, Sun Tao was overjoyed, he thought he had changed his mind, but what he didn't expect was to hear her husband say: "Let's divorce."
This made Sun Tao feel that the sky had fallen, and she felt that Tang Guoqiang was joking, after getting her husband's affirmative answer.
Sun Tao directly quarreled with Tang Guoqiang, and smashed all the things in the house, and Tang Guoqiang watched her smash things quietly.
In the end, Sun Tao calmed down, looked at Tang Guoqiang and said, "Can we not divorce, can I treat your affairs with her as if it never happened, don't go"?
Tang Guoqiang saw his wife begging him so much, but he still left very resolutely, saying that I must leave this marriage, and finally left the sadness to Sun Tao alone.
A few days later, after Tang Guoqiang kept filing for divorce, Sun Tao was disillusioned and reluctantly signed the divorce agreement.
The person he loved the most left him, Sun Tao was disheartened, and finally chose to end his life.

Sun Tao's suicide note made Tang Guoqiang the target of condemnation, he paid the price for his actions, and his acting career was affected for a while.
When Tang Guoqiang's career was at a low point, Zhuangli always stayed by his side, which made Tang Guoqiang very moved.
Not long after Sun Tao died, Tang Guoqiang turned his head and married Zhuangli and became a legal husband and wife with her, and he was only briefly sad about the death of his deceased wife.
At first, Tang Li was very repulsive to her stepmother, and she didn't have a good face when she saw her, but when she treated Tang Li like her own daughter, she treated Tang Li like her own daughter, and finally the two were like mother and daughter.
Tang Guoqiang's acting career, after the death of his ex-wife was affected, he began to accept endorsements for various commercial activities.
From excavators to lingerie, there are all kinds of weird game ads, it's literally everything.
All kinds of advertisements emerge in endlessly, and once the financial product he endorsed was actually a scam, so that many fans who bought it because of him were deceived.
But Tang Guoqiang acted as if nothing had happened, saying that he didn't need to care about the quality of the product, he didn't plan to take any responsibility, and he didn't have any conscience.
For advertising, he didn't look at the quality at all, as long as the price was right, he would pick it up, and during that time, Tang Guoqiang was crazy about "making money".
In the end, he still got into trouble, and the demon health care drug he endorsed was reported, saying that it was a bit of false propaganda, and finally CCTV came out to criticize him.
