He was once a dazzling star in the Chinese comedy industry, conquering countless audiences with his unique "Shanghai-style Qingkou" style. His name, once on a par with Guo Degang, has become a "laughing star" in the hearts of countless fans.
However, it was that eloquent mouth that became the fuse of the tragedy of his life.
From "One Week Libo Show" to "China Dream Show", his reputation is skyrocketing, but sarcasm, moral kidnapping, ingratitude, domestic violence, extramarital affairs, drug abuse, guns and other negative news emerge one after another, making him step by step into the abyss.
The glory of the past is no more, and now he is uncared for, and has become what people call a "street rat".
——【·Perfect Character·】——»
In Shanghai, Zhou Libo's name is known to everyone.
Zhou Libo's career took off in 2008, when he founded the brand "Shanghai Qingkou" and launched popular talk shows such as "Thirty Years of Laughter" and "Laughing in Shanghai".
These works are influential with their incisive social commentary and humorous language.
As his popularity continues to rise, Zhou Libo's performance venues have also expanded, from the original 600-seat Lyceum Grand Theater, to the 1,300-seat Majestic Theater, to the 3,000-seat gymnasium, and finally even facing nearly 10,000 spectators on the Shanghai Grand Stage.
Behind this series of achievements, it is not difficult to see how popular he was at that time.
As the most dazzling star in Shanghai, Zhou Libo's life is naturally very extravagant.
He was often surrounded by several bodyguards, driven by a master from the world of motorsport, to ensure that his trip was safe and secure.
He has a soft spot for imported goods, whether it is drinking water or other daily necessities, almost all of them come from abroad.
The annual salary of up to 10 million yuan and the high advertising endorsement fee have naturally become an important support for this luxurious life.
In addition to the pursuit of material life, Zhou Libo is also a wine lover.
Unlike other people's love of baijiu, he prefers imported aged wines, and only those "elegant" red wines are enough to satisfy his pursuit of quality of life.
He would enjoy a lavish breakfast every day, and would imitate the emperor's style by having two beautiful maids accompany him.
At the peak of his career, Zhou Libo's concert tickets were even sold at a sky-high price of tens of thousands of yuan, even so, scalpers are still hard to find.
A tour can easily bring him hundreds of millions of dollars. In this way, with just a suit and a mouth that can speak, Zhou Libo has become the undisputed "the best person in Shanghai".
——【Scandal exposed·】——»
At the beginning, the Internet hot word "Libo is in trouble, and all directions like it" expressed his controversial character in the entertainment industry.
Back in 2010, Mr. Zhou erupted in abrasive rhetoric over attacks on netizens, likening the internet to a "public toilet that excretes public waste," a outpouring that caused him to lose more than 200,000 followers overnight.
Then, in 2015, he unreasonably ridiculed a performer dressed in Hanfu, "Which bathing center is it?" once again caught him in a public opinion storm.
In the face of public anger, he not only refused to apologize, but accused the audience of being "ignorant".
In the same year, on the talent show, a girl who was abandoned by her biological parents refused to reunite with them, and Zhou Libo even commented that she "can never be happy" and was accused of "moral kidnapping".
The situation reached a shocking climax in 2017 when Zhou Libo was stopped and arrested by police on a highway on Long Island, New York, on suspicion of drug use.
The incident attracted a lot of attention from the media at home and abroad, with many expecting it to be the end of years of his controversial behavior.
Police reportedly found items in his car that appeared to be drugs, including a bonnet containing cocaine and methamphetamine.
The ensuing legal process became a protracted battle. From 2017 to 2018, Zhou's case went through 11 trials.
Each trial attracted a lot of media attention and the public, who wanted to see justice done. However, as the trial progressed, the facts of the case gradually became confusing.
Mr. Zhou and his team of lawyers offered a variety of defense strategies, including claims that the accusations were planted by others and that the drugs were someone else's.
In the end, after several exchanges of evidence and court debates, the prosecution was unable to form a sufficient chain of evidence to establish Zhou Libo's guilt due to doubts about the exact proof of the source of the drugs, the key piece of evidence.
Therefore, on June 4, 2018, the judge acquitted Zhou Libo. The result came as a surprise to many and disappointed those who had hoped to see him duly punished.
Although Zhou Libo was legally freed from drug abuse, the public's trust and support for him has been greatly reduced.
What's even more ironic is that in 2019, Zhou Libo took the initiative to apply for a drug test, and the results confirmed that his hair contained drugs.
This kind of "suicide drug test" made him a laughing stock completely, his social account was blocked, and he never dared to return to China, so he could only wander overseas, all the way down to the current situation.
In his personal life, Zhou Libo's marital problems have also attracted much attention from the outside world. His emotional entanglement with his ex-wife Zhang Jie has become the focus of the media many times, and the divorce lawsuit between the two has made Zhou Libo's image even worse.
Despite his modest success in his career, the chaos of his private life undoubtedly undermined his positive image.
Zhou Libo has remarkable talent, but he has repeatedly failed to maintain his work ethic and moral bottom line, causing him to lose the glory he once had.
——【·Conclusion·】——»
Can public figures truly understand that real success does not depend solely on popularity, but on personality charm and adherence to the bottom line.
No matter when and where, we must not ignore our inner constraints and external responsibilities, because every choice will have a profound impact on our future trajectory.
