1. The legendary life has gone through ups and downs
In the 1990s, Carina Lau was at the peak of her career, and with her excellent acting skills and glamorous appearance, she made a name for herself in the ever-changing entertainment industry.
However, the tricks of fate always seem so unforgiving, and at this critical moment, a horrific kidnapping case completely turns the course of her life upside down.
On that night, which now seems terrifying to everyone, a group of evildoers who set foot in the black zone quietly infiltrated Carina Lau's private home in bustling Hong Kong, besieging her innocent like a prey in a snare.
They brutally imprisoned her in darkness and subjected her to physical and mental torture for days. Carina Lau's suffering is undoubtedly a nightmare that makes people's hearts ache.
Just when she thought she was about to enter the door of death, the timely appearance of her best friend Tony Leung and the full assistance of the police allowed her to break free from the brink of life and death. Although she eventually regained her life, that unforgettable experience left an indelible shadow in her heart.
Since then, Carina Lau's requirements for cleanliness and personal hygiene have never been greater. She needs to change three sets of clean and tidy clothes every day to avoid the slightest dirt on her body.
Even in the midst of her busy work on the shoot, she never let up and always adhered to the habit of washing her hair every day to ensure flawless personal hygiene. She treats flossing her teeth like a religious one, visiting the dentist regularly to ensure good oral health.
This extreme pursuit of "cleanliness" is not only limited to her personal lifestyle, but also swept through her family and social circle like a torrent. Anyone who has visited Carina Lau's home has been struck by the cleanliness of her home – every corner is spotless, every piece of furniture shimmers brightly, as if they are in a paradise completely isolated from the outside world.
According to insiders, a certain friend Shu Qi went to Carina Lau's house as a guest, and after going to the bathroom, Carina Lau did not hesitate to replace the entire toilet! At that time, Shu Qi felt very embarrassed and helpless about this, but considering the deep friendship between the two, she could only choose to understand and tolerate Carina Lau's "cleanliness".
Second, the acting career is shining
After experiencing the painful kidnapping case, Carina Lau's body and mind suffered great damage, however, she was strong and did not retreat because of the suffering, but strengthened her dreams and pursuits!
After a long process of cultivation, this brave and fearless woman straightened her back again and resolutely embarked on the road of acting and moved forward bravely.
Back in 1989, just one year before the nightmare kidnapping case, Carina Lau successfully portrayed two completely different characters in the TV series "Shanghai Storm", and her superb acting skills won warm applause from the audience, which was amazing.
Only two years later, in 1991, she won the prestigious honor of Best Actress at the Nantes Three Continents Film Festival in France for her wonderful performance in the biographical film "The True Story of A Fei", and was also successfully shortlisted for the highest honor of Best Actress at the Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards.
It is true that just when her career was booming and in the limelight, the sudden kidnapping case undoubtedly brought her a heavy blow. Her soul was tormented, her spirit was on the verge of collapse, and she fell into the lowest point of her life at one point.
However, Carina Lau did not give in to this, she gritted her teeth with amazing perseverance and persevered, and with the care and encouragement of her family and friends, she continued to make unremitting efforts on the road of acting and pursue excellence.
It is this perseverance that has allowed her to surpass herself again and again and show the world her great strength. In 1997, she won the Hong Kong Film Golden Bauhinia Award for Best Actress for her starring role in the movie "Self-Combing"; Ten years later, in 2007, she successfully won the Best Actress of the Chinese Film Golden Rooster Award for her outstanding performance in "Curiosity Kills the Cat"; In 2011, she won the Best Actress at the Hong Kong Film Awards for her perfect interpretation in "Di Renjie's Heavenly Empire".
Looking back on her acting career, she is full of honors. For Carina Lau, these awards are not only a high recognition of her acting skills, but also the highest praise for her personal courage and tenacity.
If it weren't for the indomitable and never-say-die will, she might have chosen to give up her dream for many years after the kidnapping. However, she chose to rise to the occasion, and despite the twists and turns of the road, she still overcame her inner fear and achieved brilliant achievements in her career.
It is precisely because of that unwavering pursuit of dreams and uncompromising stubborn belief that Carina Lau, a famous actress in the Chinese film industry, was able to write such a moving and unique chapter in her acting career.
With her impeccable acting skills, she deeply interpreted an inspiring story of being able to infuse hope and be reborn bravely under the pressure of life, which has undoubtedly become a model and benchmark for younger generations to figure out and learn.
3. The struggle to bravely defend one's own rights and interests
Just when Carina Lau's acting career was in full swing, a shocking scandal was like a bolt from the blue that unveiled the shadow in her heart - many years ago, she was kidnapped, and some intimate photos that were illegally taken during the period were maliciously posted on the Internet by people with ill intentions and spread widely.
In those photos, Carina Lau's unconcealed body and painful expression all reveal the unspeakable torture she endured at that time. These negatives were supposed to be "bargaining chips" for the kidnappers to blackmail money.
Although Carina Lau finally managed to escape, these intimate photos full of scars have been deliberately preserved by those who have a heart to this day.
Time flies, and when these old nightmares once again make waves in the online world, Carina Lau undoubtedly suffered heavy psychological trauma and endless humiliation again. As a high-profile public figure, her personal privacy has been violated more than ever before.
Faced with such a predicament, many people speculate that Carina Lau may choose to stay away and deal with it in a low-key manner. However, to everyone's surprise, she did not flinch, but showed great courage to stand up and report the case to the Hong Kong police, and at the same time issued a stern warning through a lawyer's letter to resolutely defend her legitimate rights and interests.
In the face of doubts and accusations from public opinion, Carina Lau has always maintained a firm position and is unwavering. She held a press conference in person to denounce those who wantonly disseminated intimate photos as "despicable and shameless."
After the unremitting efforts of her and her team of lawyers, the photos that left a deep imprint on her finally disappeared from the Internet. Although this battle for rights protection was difficult and tortuous, Carina Lau's firm determination and tenacious perseverance finally overcame all difficulties.
Once again, she won her own "victory".
Since then, Carina Lau has always expressed her sincere opinion without hesitation whenever someone mentions this matter: "I am not a person who is keen on lawsuits, but when my rights and interests are violated, I will stand up resolutely and defend my own dignity without hesitation."
Fourth, devote yourself to public welfare undertakings and pour warmth
While achieving outstanding achievements, Carina Lau has never forgotten to exert her influence, actively pay attention to social issues, and enthusiastically devote herself to public welfare undertakings. She hopes to do her best to speak for the disadvantaged and contribute to the progress of society.
As a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Carina Lau has always been fully committed to advocating for the lives of refugee children and their right to education.
She visited the camps to learn more about their living conditions and studies, and actively contacted various resources to provide them with necessary financial support and assistance.
Whenever she witnesses those poor children living in poverty and war, the maternal brilliance in Carina Lau's heart shines. She clasped the children's little hands and listened to their hearts, even if it was just a look or a smile, it could bring them endless warmth and hope.
In addition, Carina Lau also serves as the symbol ambassador of Hong Kong's anti-drug people, and has long been committed to anti-drug publicity and drug rehabilitation. She once said affectionately at an event: "The road to drug rehabilitation is long and arduous, and it requires the joint efforts of all sectors of society to help them regain their lives with love and patience."
It can be seen that public welfare and charity are by no means perfunctory for Carina Lau, but from the bottom of her heart. She hopes to use her influence to send care and call for more vulnerable groups, and help promote the development of the whole society in a more just and just direction.
In Carina Lau's body, we see a female role model who has not only achieved brilliant achievements in her career, but also has a broad mind. Her unwavering perseverance not only enabled her to successfully escape life's difficulties, but also gave her the strength to care for others and help the weak.
This selfless love will surely turn into a warm spring breeze blowing on the earth.
Fifth, Tony Leung accompanies his life
In Carina Lau's ups and downs in her life journey, there has always been a man by her side, and he is Carina Lau's husband, the famous movie star Tony Leung. Known as a "model couple" in the Chinese entertainment industry, they always respect each other and highly appreciate each other, and their unique and sincere way of getting along interprets the most essential meaning of marriage.
What is surprising is that Carina Lau and Tony Leung, a couple known as "never separated", have never had the idea of having children. In the face of many speculations from the outside world, they have remained silent and have not revealed the specific reasons for their decision.
However, judging from Carina Lau's "cleanliness" traits, we may be able to gain insight into some clues. After all, raising children means that the home environment inevitably comes with a mess of objects, residual stains, etc., which is undoubtedly an unbearable pain for someone like her, who has almost strict requirements for cleanliness.
However, some people believe that the couple's decision not to have children is more due to their love for a free life and a strong belief in their feelings for each other. Their lifestyle is full of freedom and casualness, and they often have to travel around the world to shoot or participate in various activities, and if they have children, they are bound to be very constrained.
Therefore, we can say that Carina Lau and Tony Leung have thought deeply before making this decision. For them, the happiness of marriage does not only depend on whether they have children, but also whether they can truly love, respect and support each other.
As Tony Leung said in an interview: "Jialing and I have been together for decades, and we have experienced countless mutual support. It doesn't really matter if we have children or not, what really matters is that we have always cared, understood and supported each other.
From his words, we can feel Tony Leung's selfless love and cherishment for his wife Carina Lau. After the kidnapping that shocked the world, it was he who did not hesitate to stand up and rush to the scene across thousands of mountains and rivers to save his physically and mentally exhausted wife.
Over the years, he has always stood firmly by his wife's side, bringing warmth and hope to the woman who was once in darkness and despair with his arms.
It is precisely Tony Leung's incomparably strong spiritual support that allows Carina Lau to successfully pass the most gloomy moment in her life, and then re-establish her brilliant career and colorful personal life!
The deep bond of affection that is based on the deep mutual infatuation and unwavering mutual support between the two of them is far more precious and timeless than the value and meaning of simply having a child.
