Preface
After decades of life, who doesn't want to have an unforgettable love?
Who doesn't want to reach the top of their career? But in reality, how many people can have both?
He spent half his life interpreting the legendary life of a drama bone, and with decades of perseverance, he deduced a long-lasting love.
He is the famous actor Bao Guoan.
A poor boy aspires to fame
On June 4, 1946, Bao Guoan was born in an ordinary working family in Tianjin.
His parents were too busy with work to take care of him, and he was dependent on his grandparents since he was a child.
My grandfather was a carpenter, and my grandmother did some needlework to supplement the family.
Although the life is poor, the family is happy.
Bao Guoan has been bright since childhood and loves to perform.
In 1960, the Tianjin Children's Art Troupe was founded, and at the age of 14, he stood out from many applicants and became a member of the troupe with his outstanding acting talent.
During his time in the troupe, he practiced hard, humbly learned from his predecessors, and his acting skills became more and more sophisticated, and he gradually emerged in the troupe.
However, the good times were short-lived.
In 1964, with the dissolution of the troupe, 18-year-old Bao Guoan was sent to the 66th Troupe of the Fourth Agricultural Division to engage in literary and artistic propaganda work.
On the farm, he worked in the fields during the day and rehearsed the show in the evenings, and although his life was hard, it did not dampen his passion for acting.
This experience tempered his indomitable will, and also cultivated his virtue of diligence and frugality, which laid the foundation for future success.
While on the farm, he met his first girlfriend, Zhu Bing, and the two quickly fell in love and tied the knot the following year.
Zhu Bing is not only beautiful, but also gentle and virtuous, and takes care of this family considerately.
In the era of material scarcity, she always left the best for her husband and children, but she never cared about it.
It is her selfless dedication that has made Bao Guoan's brilliant career possible.
When he first entered the film and television industry, he became famous
In the 70s of the 20th century, with the end of the "Cultural Revolution", the Chinese film industry ushered in new development opportunities.
In 1978, 32-year-old Bao Guoan passed the entrance examination of the Central Academy of Drama and realized his dream of becoming an artist.
During his time at the college, he studied hard, studied hard, and soon became a leader in the college.
However, the price of success comes at the expense of being on the road all year round and not being able to take care of the family.
Zhu Bing took on the heavy responsibility of raising children and taking care of household chores without complaint.
Whenever Bao Guoan returns from filming, the windows at home are always bright and clean, and the food is fragrant.
When the son saw his long-lost father, he always threw himself into his arms and chattered about his thoughts.
And Zhu Bing always stood aside, watching this scene with loving eyes.
It is with such a warm home that Bao Guoan can film with peace of mind and go all out.
In 1982, Bao Guoan graduated from Chinese opera and applied to become a teacher in the college.
During his teaching period, he has always insisted on his acting career, and has participated in film and television works such as "The Mountain is Hometown" and "The Right Way in the World".
While his career is thriving, Bao Guoan's family life is also very happy, his wife Zhu Bing is virtuous and virtuous, his son is sensible and obedient, and the family is happy.
However, for actors, opportunities and challenges often coexist.
Every breakthrough in the role requires unimaginable effort.
Bao Guoan knows that if he wants to go further in his acting career, he must continue to break through himself and challenge himself.
portrays the role of "Cao Cao", and his acting skills are perfect
The 90s of the last century was an important turning point for Bao Guoan.
In 1990, the famous director Wang Fulin was preparing to shoot the large-scale TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and Bao Guoan was invited to play the role of "Cao Cao".
This is the role he dreamed of, in order to create this role, he studied "Three Kingdoms" and other historical materials without sleep and food, figuring out the characters' personalities, hoping to restore a real and three-dimensional "Cao Cao".
In fact, Cao Cao is a highly controversial historical figure, who has always been the opinion of the benevolent and the wise.
How to interpret such a complex role is a huge challenge for the actors.
Bao Guoan did not simply apply the ready-made model, but started from Cao Cao's inner world, and strived to portray a flesh-and-blood "Emperor Wei Wu".
For this reason, he studied historical materials without sleep or food, and even went to Cao Cao's hometown Pei County to collect style, striving to achieve the unity of knowledge and action.
In October 1994, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was launched, and Bao Guoan's "Cao Cao" left a deep impression on the audience.
He vividly showed Cao Cao's multifaceted nature: both the ambitious side and the complacent side; There is both a ruthless side and a graceful side.
This "Cao Cao" combines the wisdom of a politician, the bravery of a military strategist, and the talent of a writer, and is known as the best interpreter of "Cao Cao" in the history of Chinese film and television dramas.
Even Cao Cao's descendants praised Bao Guoan for successfully restoring the demeanor of this historical figure.
After the broadcast of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Bao Guoan became famous in one fell swoop and became a well-known "Cao Cao professional household".
Since then, he has successively starred in a series of heavyweight historical dramas such as "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty", "Qin Shi Huang", "Kangxi Dynasty", etc., and the characters he created have become classics, establishing his status as a "drama bone".
However, Bao Guoan has never been complacent, but holds himself to a higher standard.
He often said: "In the hearts of a thousand audiences, there are a thousand 'Cao Cao'."
If I want to play every 'Cao Cao' well, I must continue to break through and innovate. "
It is with this never-slackening momentum that he can go further in his acting career.
Don't forget the original intention, love lasts
After becoming famous, Bao Guoan was not confused by the world of flowers, but always maintained a pure heart.
He admitted that his greatest luck was to meet a good wife.
Zhu Bing not only managed his family virtuously, but also took care of him meticulously in life, giving him spiritual support and encouragement.
Bao Guoan often said that his wife was a strong backing for his career.
Zhu Bing also often said that her husband is the pride of her life.
No matter how busy her husband is, she will silently wait behind him like she did back then, shelter him from the wind and rain, and solve his problems.
Every time Bao Guoan goes out to film, she will prepare clean and tidy clothes for him, as well as some hometown specialties.
Bao Guoan knew that his wife was expressing her love for him in her own way.
In 2015, Bao Guoan and his wife Zhu Bing ushered in the golden wedding of their 50th wedding anniversary.
For half a century, they have been together and have gone through the ups and downs of life hand in hand.
Bao Guoan said with emotion: "Without the support of my wife, I would not have achieved what I am today. I want to thank her for all she has done for this home. "
Today, although Bao Guoan is over the age of old, he is still active in the film and television industry.
He has starred in realistic dramas such as "Old Farmer" and "Old Tavern", and the characters he created are vivid and expressive, and they are widely acclaimed.
He often said that he still has many roles that he can't finish playing, and he can't finish the road.
He wants to spend the rest of his life interpreting more flesh-and-blood characters and enlightening the dreams in the hearts of more people.
Bao Guoan's sons are now adults and have successful careers.
A few years ago, there were rumors that Bao Guoan's youngest son married the famous singer Yang Yuying, which caused quite a stir.
In this regard, Bao Guoan personally refuted the rumors, frankly saying that his son is still single and has never intersected with Yang Yuying.
He has always paid attention to privacy, and he rarely talks about family matters, which also reflects his importance and protection of his family.
In fact, Bao Guoan has always put his family first.
Despite his busy schedule, he never neglected his family's feelings.
Every holiday, he will find time to spend time with his wife and children.
In his view, family is a person's most solid backing, and only when the family is happy can the career go to the next level.
