When it comes to evergreens in the entertainment industry, there must be a place for Andy Lau.
When he was young, Andy Lau was the popular male god of his mother's generation, even if he is now past the age of sixties, but appearing on the screen can still cause a burst of exclamations, Andy Lau's charm has been tested for decades.
When Andy Lau was on fire, many girls dreamed of marrying this man, and Andy Lau even attracted a large number of fanatical fans.
And such a male star who is almost perfect in everyone's eyes also has a time when he can't love it.
The woman who made him fall in love was Wu Qianlian.
An "alternative" beauty in the heyday of Hong Kong films
There are not many women named Qianlian in Hong Kong, and there are even a few in the entertainment industry.
Even if the name Wu Qianlian is not impressive, if you mention Jojo in "Heavenly Love", I believe that her appearance must appear in everyone's minds.
At that time, this film was popular at home and abroad, in addition to Andy's chic and memorable, Wu Qianlian's cold face and amorous curly hair have achieved many people's first recognition of beauty.
Until many years later, many people are still keen to reproduce her appearance in this film, and this trend once blew in South Korea.
Kim Hee-sun once said that she fantasized about being a jojo sitting on a motorcycle in her dreams, and Won Bin also publicly confessed to Wu Qianlian, saying that she was the artist she admired the most.
In fact, in the 90s when Wu Qianlian was popular, it was also the heyday of the Hong Kong entertainment industry, and most of the Hong Kong star beauties that we still remember now emerged at that time.
It shows that Li Jiaxin, who is glamorous and captivating, Guan Zhilin, who is fascinated by thousands of rich people, Lin Qingxia, who is heroic, and Qiu Shuzhen, who is invincible in sexiness.
At that time, the stars who could be called big beauties couldn't be counted by hand, but Wu Qianlian became the most special one.
Because of her specialness, Du Qifeng gave up considering Qiu Shuzhen and others when choosing the heroine for the drama Tianruo Love, and decided on her at a glance.
is accustomed to seeing all kinds of bright and beautiful beauties, and it is easier to discover the special features of Wu Qianlian.
She has thin eyebrows, small eyes, and small facial features, which is far from a traditional beauty, but no one says that she is unattractive.
She is like the narcissus in the peony bush, a fresh breeze in the hot summer, her fragrance may not be refreshing at the first sight of her, but it can make people's lips and teeth fragrant.
But such a very attractive woman has never had much confidence in her appearance.
The counterattack of the "ugly duckling".
This may also be related to the suppression of her mother, after Wu Qianlian has been remembering, her mother often looks at her face and sighs, she doesn't want to believe that her daughter looks so ugly.
Even for fear that her daughter would be worried when she grew up to see her photos when she was a child, Wu Qianlian's mother almost never took photos of her.
At that time, Wu Qianlian, who had no personal aesthetics and cognition, always thought that she was the ugly duckling that no one cared about.
But her lack of confidence in her appearance did not affect her determination to pursue art.
After graduating from high school, Wu Qianlian chose to study in an art school, which also paved the way for her later acting career.
When Wu Qianlian was a sophomore, she took over the movie "Heavenly Love", and at that time, the actor she partnered with was already a male god of Andy Lau's level.
can talk about the scene of seeing Andy Lau for the first time, Wu Qianlian herself was a little crying and laughing.
At that time, she was outspoken and said directly to Andy Lau, you are not my idol.
At that time, Andy was already charming, and it was almost difficult for fans or actresses who worked with him to resist his charm, but Wu Qianlian's words aroused his curiosity.
In the process of cooperating with Wu Qianlian, Andy Lau also paid special attention to this alternative girl.
Although Wu Qianlian had not graduated from art school at that time, she was unique in acting, a lively and active girl just performed the image of a noble and cold rich girl.
can interpret such a role that is completely different from her own personality, Wu Qianlian relies on her perception of acting.
Later, she was also nominated for Best Newcomer at the Academy Awards with this film, which can be described as the peak of her debut.
Male god harvester
When the role of jojo became popular, Wu Qianlian received more and more film appointments.
At this time, she also had a large number of fans.
At this time, many people realize that beauty is not necessarily the same with big eyes and double eyelids.
For example, Wu Qianlian's beauty also has a unique style.
In fact, Wu Qianlian's appearance is particularly suitable for showing on the screen, not to mention that her own alienated temperament was unique at that time.
At that time, there was no so-called title of the goddess of literature and art, but in the following years, the so-called cold wind and literary style also mostly referred to Wu Qianlian.
In addition to her partner Andy Lau, when filming the sequel to Tianruo's friendship, Wu Qianlian cooperated with Aaron Kwok, another of the four heavenly kings.
Not long after her debut, she won two heavenly kings, and Wu Qianlian's hotness at that time can be imagined.
Of course, in addition to the two of them, she has also cooperated with Leslie Cheung, Tony Leung, Chow Yun-fat, Leung Ka-fai and other actors, which can be described as a real male god harvester.
When she collaborated with Liming in "Half Life", she played Gu Manzhen as if he had come out of a book.
Although she lost to Maggie Cheung in "Sweet Honey" in the competition for the Best Actress award at the Academy Awards that year, Wu Qianlian's classic presentation is also unforgettable.
For herself, whether she wins the award or not may not be so important, being able to film and act is completely out of her own love;
If she mixes too much desire in this love, maybe the role she plays will not be so pure.
Some people say that Wu Qianlian perfectly presents that kind of desireless temperament, but in fact, this is more like an external reflection of her attitude towards life.
Wu Qianlian, who is cold inside
She is not a person with strong desires, both for money and fame;
Even after becoming famous, she still insisted on living a frugal life, so much so that many years later, someone met her in a ramen restaurant, and Wu Qianlian's temperament without makeup was still as indifferent as ever.
Although she loved to play and make trouble when she was young, Wu Qianlian herself was not a person who loved to socialize.
On days when she is not filming, she prefers to stay at home alone, raise fish and read books.
She has also sung and acted like many stars, and has also released her own record and won the Newcomer Gold Award.
But in the end, she still gave up the road of singing, because she didn't want to run around and advertise for herself.
She prefers to stick to her hobby at her own pace, so in 2013, when she was 23 years after her debut, Wu Qianlian made the decision to retire.
But her retirement is not the same as that of other celebrities, because we haven't really seen her on the screen since then.
Maybe thinking that she had persevered for half her life, and now she is more willing to be quiet and enjoy a different life, she walked away from the camera and lived a more free and hidden life.
Of course, she also has a stable home emotionally, and in 2007, Wu Qianlian married her boyfriend outside the circle in a low-key manner.
The next year, they gave birth to the crystallization of love, and after retiring from the screen, she and her husband lived an ordinary life.
There are always people who regret that Wu Qianlian should not live such a plain life, after all, she was also a woman who was chased by the king back then.
Ten thousand flowers have passed, and the leaves do not stick to the body
In the process of cooperating with Wu Qianlian, Andy Lau was deeply attracted to her, and later in an interview, Andy Lau also admitted that the female star he wanted to cooperate with the most was still Wu Qianlian.
Even at the concert held in 2004, Andy Lau publicly knelt down on one knee and confessed to Wu Qianlian.
But in the face of the audience's voice, Wu Qianlian just laughed and ridiculed, completely treating it as an interactive program for the concert.
Some people will be curious, she has cooperated with so many heavenly kings and actors, isn't there any one that makes her tempted?
In fact, Wu Qianlian also said that she cooperated with those male god-level people, completely regarded them as colleagues, and did not have any extraneous thoughts, which also allowed her to be in the entertainment industry for decades without touching a leaf.
However, Wu Qianlian also talked about a boyfriend in the circle back then, this person is Tuo Zonghua, at that time, she had a beautiful fantasy of love like many girls, and the two have been dating for more than ten years.
She also thought that the two would spend the rest of their lives together, but after thirteen years of love, the result was not to enter the marriage hall, but to break up.
What made Wu Qianlian even more desperate was that this man turned around and married a beautiful woman, as if the more than ten years they had been together were just memories worth mentioning.
But even in the face of such a ruthless man, Wu Qianlian never publicly said anything bad about him, and even generously gave him a generous red envelope when he was newly married.
All her love, nostalgia and nostalgia for this man also ended at the moment of breakup.
But fortunately, after going around for many years, she still met her true destiny, that man may not have a dazzling halo, but he can give her the plain and happy life she wants.
After retiring from the screen, she will occasionally be photographed by the media appearing at the airport or on the streets, and those entertainment will always use "getting old" to summarize Wu Qianlian's current situation, it seems that as a female star, she should maintain an ageless appearance.
But who in the world can resist the natural laws of development of living things?
Even though the years have made Wu Qianlian's eyes wrinkled and her head has grown green silk, this does not prove that she has lost her charm, nor can it be said that her current life is pathetic.
As long as we can still think of her image and face on the screen, it means that the audience's moments of heartbeat still belong to her.
And what we love is the flesh-and-blood Wu Qianlian, presumably she loves herself like this.
