Until late that night in 2021, Li Qi was still immersed in the sense of fulfillment brought by the theater that had been filmed so hard. However, he never imagined that he was about to fall into a major crisis in his life.
As he was about to fall asleep, a sharp pain suddenly came from his chest, like countless sharp needles piercing his heart at the same time, making people feel painful. Li Qi was drenched in cold sweat, his face was as white as paper, and his eyes were full of fear and unease.
His wife was horrified when she saw this and immediately dialed the emergency number 120 and called for an ambulance to arrive.
The ambulance rushed Li Qi to the nearest hospital. After a rigorous and meticulous examination, the doctor diagnosed Li Qi with severe coronary heart disease and had to undergo coronary artery bypass surgery immediately to prevent his condition from worsening.
In the operating room, Li Qi's family was very anxious, always paying attention to the progress of the operation, lest there be any accidents. Fortunately, the operation went smoothly, and Li Qi was successfully out of danger.
However, the doctor sternly warned him that if he could not quit the bad habits of long-term drinking and smoking, he could relapse at any time, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
After being discharged from the hospital, Li Qi looked at the ecstatic but exhausted faces of his family, and his heart was full of deep fear. He realized that he had almost stepped through the door of the ghost and would never be able to see their smiles again.
This life-and-death experience has become an important turning point in Li Qi's life.
He began to reflect deeply on his lifestyle and habits, vowing to make a radical change and stay away from those vices that were harmful to his health. As an actor, his body is the foundation of his survival, and he can no longer be so willful.
To explore why Li Qi is addicted to tobacco and alcohol, we have to look back on his once brilliant acting career.
As an actor with natural comedy talent, Li Qi has quickly won the love and recognition of the audience with his superb acting skills and unique performance style since the moment he stepped into the entertainment industry.
He has played the leading role in many excellent film and television works, and he has been able to interpret the role vividly every time, leaving an indelible impression on the audience.
In the famous TV series "Year after Year", his interpretation of the role of Zhao Baogang left an indelible impression on the audience. Li Qi skillfully interpreted Zhao Baogang's witty, humorous, lively and active image vividly, which aroused warm laughter from the audience.
Also in the movie "Party A and Party B", the rough and bold, straightforward and honest chef he created portrayed the personality characteristics of the characters deeply.
There is no doubt that Li Qi's outstanding performance in many film and television works can be called a well-deserved comedy master!
This brilliant achievement was not achieved easily, but was the result of his hard work day after day, day and night. In order to maintain his best performance, Li Qi had to find spiritual sustenance in heavy drinking and smoking.
He must drink 8 taels of white wine every morning and evening, and the amount of wine is jaw-dropping. When the alcohol is drunk, the nerves will be strongly stimulated, so as to achieve the best state of performance.
To match the effects of alcohol, he also had to smoke two packs of cigarettes, turning himself into a "smoky" person.
With such a high-intensity work rhythm, coupled with long-term alcoholism and overeating, Li Qi's physical condition gradually deteriorated. The damage of alcohol and nicotine to him is obvious.
Li Qi always maintains a bright smile on the screen, but he suffers from illness behind his back. Years of alcoholism and smoking have severely impaired his bodily functions.
The most prominent symptoms are insomnia and anxiety. Li Qi often couldn't sleep peacefully all night, tossing and turning, and was in pain. As soon as he was under the slightest pressure, he would feel restless and unwell.
Sometimes, due to excessive anxiety, he even exhibits some unusual behavior.
In the course of work, Li Qi sometimes suddenly became nervous, muttering to himself, in a hurry, and completely fell into a state of uncontrollability. The director and crew were puzzled by this and couldn't understand why he was the way he was.
Later, Li Qi revealed his innermost secrets to his relatives and friends.
He had experienced a period of severe misanthropy and self-harm tendencies. He said he was in a state of depression and despair that he had lost interest in anything.
When someone called out to him at work, Li Qi reacted as if he was in another world, completely immersed in silence, as if the spirit and body had transcended reality. His words deeply shocked friends and relatives, who had never expected the comedy superstar to suffer so much. In fact, after becoming a star, Li Qi tried to end his life many times, but each time he was able to save the day because of the favor of Lady Luck.
It is conceivable that the predicament faced by Li Qi at that time was very difficult. As an actor known for his humor and comedy, he needs to amuse the audience with his performances every day, but in his private life, he suffers from pain and despair that are incomparable to ordinary people. He was so lonely, so tired! Perhaps this was also an important factor in his addiction to alcohol.
It is gratifying that Li Qi finally came out of the trough of his life and rekindled his love and dedication to life. He has successfully created many classic comedy roles in many film and television works, bringing countless joys to the audience, such as Wang Xianmin in the TV series "Six Groups of Serious Cases", the cook in the movie "Party A and Party B", etc., these roles have left a deep impression on people and fully demonstrated his superb acting skills.
There will always be ups and downs in life, and the key is how to face difficulties bravely, rather than choosing to escape or give up. Li Qi proves this with practical actions, and his experience conveys a positive attitude towards life.
Li Qi was able to get rid of the shadow of life, largely thanks to the affectionate and careful care of his wife and children. His wife has always been his solid support, the most important support and source of motivation in his life.
Whenever Li Qi fell into a trough, his wife always patiently comforted him, encouraged him, and injected hope and strength into him with warm words. Whenever he had thoughts of self-harm, his wife was always able to stop him in time and pull him back to the edge of reason with selfless love.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is precisely because of his wife's meticulous care and protection that Li Qi did not completely lose himself. In his most desperate moments, she was his last support.
Li Qi loves his wife and children deeply, and their expectations and blessings are the only motivation for him to survive. He once said sincerely: "The reason why I live is to live up to the expectations of my wife and children." ”
I want to live for them and spend more time with them.
Li Qi's wife and children have always stood by his side unswervingly and never chose to give up on him. Despite his numerous setbacks, they still waited silently to accept all his shortcomings and mistakes with the broadest and boundless love.
Li Qi's son once told a friend this in earnest: "My father occasionally exhibited some strange behavior, but I clearly understood that this was just a symptom of his continued mental illness. We will continue to love him deeply, support him with all our might, and embrace his shortcomings with endless tolerance. ”
In the face of such deep and sincere expectations from his family, Li Qi was filled with deep gratitude in his heart. He began to think deeply about his lifestyle, realizing that his long-term alcohol and smoking habits had not only taken a heavy toll on him personally, but had also ruthlessly hurt the affection and trust that his wife and children had placed in him.
He resolutely made up his mind to get rid of these bad habits and live a healthy and happy life, so as to repay his family's ardent expectations.
In order to achieve this goal, Li Qi has made extremely hard efforts. The withdrawal reaction was extremely violent, and he was on the verge of collapse several times, and even had suicidal thoughts.
Whenever he remembered the eager eyes of his wife and children, he rekindled the courage to persevere.
In this way, with the encouragement of his relatives and his own tenacious will, Li Qi finally succeeded in getting rid of the long-term addiction to alcohol and smoking, and his physical condition gradually recovered.
His life was rejuvenated and regained to its former glory.
