1. Cross-industry acquaintance
Ms. Ma Su and Mr. Kong Linghui, one is an outstanding and powerful actress who is well-known at home and abroad, and the other is a legendary existence in the field of table tennis. Although they come from very different fields, they both share a common and precious hometown - Harbin.
This is where they grow and sprout and shine their youth.
Ms. Ma Su has shown extraordinary artistic talent since she was a child, and she chose to join the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts, specializing in dance. At that challenging age, she struggled alone in Beijing, and her mother could only stay in Harbin silently to see her love for the stage, looking forward to her daughter being able to realize her dream day after day.
Ma Su knows that if he wants to become an outstanding actor, he must set foot in the fertile land of Beijing Film Academy, which breeds Chinese actors. As a result, she began to devote herself to this major battle of her life.
After listening carefully at school during the day and returning to a small rental house at night, she began to work all night to prepare for various exam materials.
The tight cost of living forced her to take advantage of her spare time to work part-time at an advertising agency as a way to raise living expenses. However, all of these efforts are made in order to be able to step into Nortel's door smoothly one day in the future.
Finally, in the second year of the examination, Ma Su was successfully admitted to the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy for her future
Two young people from Harbin, with completely different backgrounds and growth environments, but their persistent pursuit of their own ideals made their fates collide wonderfully, and the sparks between them gradually burned brightly in the years to come.
Second, sparks are growing
In 2002, the table tennis competition of the Asian Games in Busan, South Korea came to a successful conclusion. At this event, Kong Linghui once again showed his otherworldly strength, won the gold medal, and was crowned with glory.
At the end of the race, he was invited to a small party by a close friend to celebrate his victory. Although Kong Linghui is not keen on such social activities, he gladly attends the appointment out of respect for others.
This moment became an important turning point in his life, because it was at this party that he met Ma Su for the first time.
At that time, Ma Su had already emerged, although he had not yet become a hot actor, but he had won wide attention in the film and television industry with his superb acting skills. She was wearing a plain and elegant long dress, and her bright eyes showed a little shyness.
Kong Linghui looked at the beautiful and moving woman in front of him, and couldn't help but feel an indescribable attraction in his heart.
On the other hand, Kong Linghui's outfit is more casual. Dressed in athletic attire, he still showed a bit of restraint in his expression, despite his strong physique due to years of hard training.
As a professional athlete, he usually interacts with coaches and teammates on the court, and rarely sets foot in such social situations.
Looking back on the past now, Ma Su admitted frankly that she had already recognized Kong Linghui the moment she first saw him. When she was in college, she heard someone chanting "Kong Linghui is here" on the train back to her hometown of Harbin, and the passengers in the whole carriage flocked to the hometown sports superstar.
Although Ma Su did not join the crowd of onlookers, a small wish quietly sprouted in his heart: to one day meet this heroic figure in a special way.
Therefore, when Ma Su witnessed Kong Linghui stepping into the party, her heart was instantly filled with joy.
Kong Linghui was quite touched, and under the influence of Ma Su's sincere and sincere demeanor, his heart defense instantly collapsed, and the restraints on his face were relaxed. Next, they got to know each other through a friend's solemn introduction.
Ma Su's pungent and dynamic personality, as well as his unremitting pursuit of dreams, have brought unprecedented novelty and interest to Kong Linghui, and Kong Linghui's inner spiritual world of introverted and perseverance has also made Ma Su have a deep admiration for him.
As a result, the friendship between these two young people burned silently like a small fire in a spring night. It wasn't long before the emotional bond between them had transcended the boundaries of ordinary friendship and formalized the relationship.
Kong Linghui's attitude towards feelings is extremely traditional, and he is even more protective of Ma Su. No matter what the occasion, he would always not hesitate to take Ma Su's hand and shield her from the wind and rain.
Ma Su often ridiculed Kong Linghui in front of everyone, calling him an "honest man".
Their sweet interaction has made many people envious, and friends are silently praying that this "model couple" can stay together forever and spend the rest of their lives together.
3. The struggle between career and love
With the steady development of Ma Su's acting career, invitations to various roles have come one after another, and her popularity has also increased. In 2009, she won the "Most Potential Newcomer Award" for starring in the TV series "The North Wind That Blows"; In 2012, her wonderful performance in the work "Factory Flower" made her win the "Best Actress of China TV Golden Eagle Awards" in one fell swoop, and her career reached its peak.
However, just as Ma Su's career was in full swing, Kong Linghui's career encountered some twists and turns. As an outstanding athlete, Ma Su's intimate scenes with other male actors in the play have always made Kong Linghui feel unbearable jealousy, and the contradictions between the two gradually accumulated.
Whenever Ma Su takes on this kind of scene, Kong Linghui always shows a troubled expression. Despite his best efforts to suppress the jealousy in his heart, Ma Su could detect his unease and anger in his stiff tone and wandering eyes.
Ma Su has explained to Kong Linghui many times that this is just the only way for an actor to go through and is needed for the role, which does not mean that she has any thoughts of crossing the line. However, Kong Linghui still can't completely let go.
Just as Kong Linghui was harshly criticized, his own career fell to the bottom like a waterfall, and he lost two major victories, causing the former world champion to temporarily say goodbye to the national team.
The difficulties of his career almost killed the courage in his heart, and even made him unconsciously interfere and restrain Ma Su's career.
As a result, an invisible gap was quietly built between these two former lovers. Ma Su is full of passion for his career and longs to pursue the ultimate embodiment of personal value, but Kong Linghui expects Ma Su to find a balance between career and family and devote himself to this relationship.
Although they are still working together, the differences in their inner thoughts undoubtedly indicate that their road to love will be full of ups and downs. Ma Su became increasingly dissatisfied with Kong Linghui's overly focused career-oriented attitude, and Kong Linghui gradually became disillusioned with Ma Su's indifference to him.
