1. Appreciate the warm scene in the world, leading us to deeply analyze the mysterious gene of "life winner"!
It's a beautiful weekend in May 2024, and on the streets of beautiful downtown Vancouver, Canada, a unique and eye-catching figure has attracted the attention of countless passers-by.
They are a middle-aged and elegant man dressed in an off-white sweatshirt, and a slender and tall cute little girl with slender legs next to him.
"Oh, that little girl is stunningly beautiful, and her proportions are flawless!" A passerby couldn't help but give a heartfelt compliment.
"That's true, look at those slender legs, she will definitely grow into a peerless beauty who captivates the country and the city in the future!" Another passer-by also expressed his feelings.
At this moment, a tourist with a camera in his hand took the opportunity to capture this heartwarming moment, leaving a precious image record for the laughing father and daughter. Although the little girl in the photo is dressed plainly and has a simple and casual hairstyle, it still can't hide her delicate facial features and petite figure.
She and her father looked at each other, her face was full of happy smiles, and the iconic pear vortex at the corner of her mouth added a bit of playfulness and cuteness, like a little adult mature and sensible.
Keen netizens quickly identified that this little girl was the baby daughter of the famous movie star Hawick Lau and the well-known actress Yang Mi - Xiao Nuomi. "The power of genes is really amazing, Xiao Nuomi is simply a copy of Xiao Yang Mi!" Netizens sighed and wished her to inherit her mother's excellent genes in the future and become a "winner in life" in the entertainment industry.
The "second generation of stars" emitted by Xiao Nuomi's body undoubtedly makes the outside world full of endless expectations for her. However, looking back on her father Hawick Lau's upbringing, it was actually a road full of twists and turns.
He was born in a family of performing arts, and his father is a famous actor of Hong Kong Television Station (TVB), which can be described as a veritable "second generation official".
However, his father's aura was a heavy burden for him. During his childhood, due to the particularity of his family background, he was often ridiculed and abused by his classmates, and was even called "a dry eater", which brought him great psychological pressure.
However, these difficulties did not break him, but instead inspired him to fight in his heart, prompting him to aspire to become a bright star like his father.
Second, the complicated history of the struggle of the "second generation of officials", the emotional entanglements that are constantly cut and sorted out
For Hawick Lau, it is not easy to make a name for himself in the highly competitive entertainment industry. As a "second-generation official", his background is enviable, but it also brings him great pressure.
Back in 1993, Hawick Lau, who was only 19 years old at the time, participated in the Chinese Singer Competition, although he failed to achieve the desired results, his handsome and chic appearance attracted the attention of TVB scouts.
Soon after, he successfully entered TVB's training class and embarked on his own acting career.
Hawick Lau, with his excellent learning ability, has quickly made breakthroughs! In just one year, he showed extraordinary talent, was favored by TVB, successfully signed a contract to become an artist, and has since embarked on a star-studded bright road.
Back in 1995, with the strong recommendation of his esteemed father, he won the precious opportunity to star in the TV series "True Love" for the first time, which not only made him famous in the film and television industry, but also attracted the attention of Sony Music, and successfully signed a contract to become a singer.
Since then, Hawick Lau has gone hand in hand in the two major fields of film and television and music, and his reputation has become increasingly famous. During the filming of the stage play "All Happy", he met his first girlfriend Liao Bier.
However, due to the disparity in status between the two, this relationship failed to reach the end after all.
After the breakup, Hawick Lau devoted himself to his career. In 2005, he obtained an important mainland drama resource - "Daqing Hui Shang", which marked his official entry into the mainland market.
However, due to the language barrier, he had to patiently hone his spoken Mandarin.
Despite the challenging process, Hawick Lau never gave up on his dream. Get rid of the shadow of the identity of the "second generation of officials", and rely on his own strength to find his own world in the entertainment industry, which is his greatest pursuit and motivation.
Third, the marriage entanglement, and the misfortune met Yang Mi
In 2010, during the filming of the TV series "Single Mother", Hawick Lau had an affair with actress Liu Tingyu, and it was rumored that the two "fell in love because of the play". However, both parties remained silent about the matter, and the matter was soon quietly settled.
A year later, Hawick Lau's costume drama "A Thousand Mountains and Twilight Snow" swept the country, and he also won wide popularity in the mainland. It is worth mentioning that just when the show was on the air, some fans were surprised to find that the image of Hawick Lau in the play was completely different from the past, and they couldn't help but question whether he had plastic surgery.
Hawick Lau resolutely denied these speculations, fearing that the negative scandal would have a negative impact on his career. In fact, as early as 2010, the two met in the same crew.
At that time, Yang Mi went to Hawick Lau's crew to "rub rice", and the two formed a deep friendship.
The following year, they worked together again to shoot the TV series "Ruyi", and their relationship heated up further, gradually changing from friends to lovers. In 2011, some staff witnessed that the two had "cohabited" together, but both parties vehemently denied it at the time.
It wasn't until January 2012 that the sweet framed photos of the two were exposed, and they had to publicly admit their relationship in public.
Despite the many skepticisms, the public gradually let go of their doubts when they saw the couple so affectionate, describing the relationship as a "little sapling", and jointly promising to do their best to take care of it and thrive.
Back in 2014, Hawick Lau, who has been a smash hit for 30 years, happily accepted Yang Mi, who was six years younger than him, and the two fiery hearts of love closely interdepended on each other and were happily united.
The following year, the two ushered in the crystallization of love - the lovely daughter Xiao Nuomi, and the sweet family of three enjoyed an incomparable happy time.
It is worth noting that driven by his wife's thriving career, Hawick Lau also starred in a number of popular TV series one after another, and his career development is like a fish in water, and it is bright.
Fourth, career differences and rumors of "cheating" have led this once loving couple to part ways.
Since getting married, the life trajectories of Hawick Lau and Yang Mi, a high-profile celebrity couple, have gradually deviated. On the one hand, because the careers of the two are very different; On the other hand, the exposure of scandals such as "derailment" undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to this otherwise happy family.
After marriage, Hawick Lau obviously lowered the pace of his acting career, but intentionally or unintentionally became the "shadow" of Yang Mi's career. In order to ensure the stable development of the company's business, Yang Mi had to go all out to devote himself to his work, and even implemented the strict system of "996".
The more serious challenge is that she signed a "VAM agreement", which must generate up to 300 million yuan in profits for the company in just three years, or face the risk of bankruptcy.
Under such high-intensity work pressure, Yang Mi can hardly take care of her family, so she naturally neglects to communicate and communicate with her husband. Hawick Lau deeply regretted this, and began to be dissatisfied with his wife's work attitude, and even publicly accused Yang Mi of "lacking artistic pursuit".
When asked about the root cause of the conflict between the two, Hawick Lau shifted the responsibility to his wife and said frankly that "she is too busy". In a way, he was baffled by his wife's burnout.
As time passed, the life circle of the two gradually distanced themselves, and they rarely talked when they met, like strangers. It wasn't until 2016 that a "scriptgate" incident completely uncovered the contradictions between them.
According to eyewitnesses, Hawick Lau left actress Wang Ou's room late at night. In the face of public doubts, Hawick Lau defended that he was just discussing the script, but the majority of netizens did not buy it.
As a result, he was saddled with the notoriety of a "scumbag".
To the astonishment of all walks of life, Yang Mi did not push her husband into a desperate situation as everyone expected, but firmly chose to trust her husband when she was interviewed, thus successfully resolving the deteriorating trend of the situation.
Since then, however, the apathy and alienation between the two have gradually intensified, like two strangers passing by in their daily lives.
In the hopeful year of 2018, Yang Mi's company successfully achieved a gorgeous turn from loss to profit, and she herself successfully fulfilled the promise she had made and unloaded the burden on her heart.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, she decisively filed for divorce from her husband, and since then, the two have gone their separate ways and embarked on completely different life paths.
5. The current situation of the two people's lives after the divorce
For Yang Mi, divorce not only means the end of a stage, but also the beginning of a new chapter in his life. She was finally able to dedicate herself to her career and go all out to push the company to greater heights.
As expected, in the years after the divorce, Yang Mi's film and television works have won the enthusiastic pursuit of the audience, and she has become a high-profile "film and television superstar".
However, in terms of personal feelings, Yang Mi is still lonely, and there has been no definite news about her relationship so far. Fortunately, now that she has entered middle age, her desire and pursuit of love are no longer as hot as when she was young.
In contrast, Hawick Lau's situation is quite embarrassing. Since the "derailment" incident in 2017 was made public, he has almost disappeared from public view and is almost in semi-retirement.
Except for the occasional cameo appearance in some variety shows, it is difficult for us to see him again on the TV screen.
Obviously, the scandal had a huge impact on his career. Fortunately, however, his private life remained happy. In 2022, some media broke out photos of him living with actress Li Xiaofeng, who is 11 years younger than him.
From these photos, it is not difficult to find that the relationship between the two of them is quite deep, and they often interact sweetly in front of the camera, showing their affection openly and unabashedly.
Li Xiaofeng also came from a privileged background and has played the heroine in many popular TV series. is different from Yang Mi, her mentality is younger and more innocent, and she is more considerate and tolerant of Hawick Lau.
Since the two confirmed their relationship, they have not shied away from boldly showing their love, determined to work together to manage this hard-won relationship.
After the divorce, Yang Mi and Hawick Lau made very different choices in their lifestyles. However, no matter how many twists and turns and tribulations the past marriage has experienced, as long as they can live their own wonderful lives, then this is undoubtedly the greatest fulfillment.
I sincerely wish that each of them can unleash their unlimited potential on the new stage of life, whether it is in the journey of their careers or in the exploration of the emotional world, they can shine dazzlingly! I look forward to them reaping their own happy ending in the end.
