Back to that Christmas night 21 years ago, Taiwan's high-profile show "Variety Flagship" broadcast a shocking and precious picture for the first time - that is, the well-known host Wu Zongxian and actress Chen Xiaoxuan had a wedding rehearsal amid the warm cheers of the audience.
At that time, Chen Xiaoxuan was wearing a white floor-sweeping wedding dress and a mysterious eye patch, and walked into the studio under the guidance of the staff. The subtitles affectionately hailed her as "Snow White", while Wu Zongxian was praised as "Prince Charming". The audience poured in like a tide, and the number of people reached more than 100.
Wu Zongxian, who was 38 years old at the time, has already become a well-known "variety show king", with fixed programs broadcast every week, and has always been the champion of ratings. And 30-year-old Chen Xiaoxuan rose to prominence because of her appearance in the costume drama "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and she was full of charm. Wu Zongxian fell in love with her at first sight and pursued her unremittingly for five years.
At the scene, Wu Zongxian affectionately sang a love song for Chen Xiaoxuan, and knelt down on one knee to kiss her hand. The two hugged each other tightly, kissed constantly, and their deep affection was overflowing. This scene made the audience's blood boil, but Zhang Weiwei in front of the TV was stunned.
It turned out that Zhang Weiwei was Wu Zongxian's genuine wife. The two have been working together for many years and have conceived four lovely children together. However, Wu Zongxian concealed this marriage relationship from the outside world. Seeing her husband and Chen Xiaoxuan so close, Zhang Weiwei's heart was in unbearable pain. She originally thought that Wu Zongxian was just neglecting his family because he was busy with work, but she never expected that such a secret emotional entanglement was hidden.
That night, Zhang Weiwei tossed and turned and couldn't sleep peacefully. Although she was full of helplessness, she knew that she could not affect her husband's career development. Early the next morning, she hurried to the newspaper office and finally revealed her true identity to the media - "I am Wu Zongxian's legal wife, we have been married for many years and have four children. ”
Wu Zongxian's relationship with Chen Xiaoxuan began in 1995, when Chen Xiaoxuan quickly became popular by playing the role of Xiao Zhao in the costume drama "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and Wu Zongxian fell in love with her bright eyes at first sight. As a popular variety show host, he began his passionate pursuit of Chen Xiaoxuan.
Four years have passed, and in order to fully support Chen Xiaoxuan's rise in the acting career, Wu Zongxian has frequently brought her to major social occasions and made every effort to promote her integration into his social circle. Chen Xiaoxuan signed a 15-year-long obviously unfair brokerage contract when she was emerging from the scene, and Wu Zongxian acted decisively in response to this, relying on his strong network resources, successfully defusing the crisis.
During this period, Wu Zongxian met Zhang Weiwei. Compared with Chen Xiaoxuan's freshness and refinement, Zhang Weiwei leaves the impression of a typical good wife and motherly woman with a "gentle personality and good at managing money and running a family".
In 1999, in gratitude for Zhang Weiwei's virtuous kindness, Wu Zongxian generously paid a down payment for a 150-square-meter house she purchased in Taipei's Xinyi District, and Zhang Weiwei finally nodded and agreed to his marriage proposal.
The following year, in 2000, Zhang Weiwei expressed her desire to enter the marriage hall. In order to appease her emotions, Wu Zongxian carefully planned the highlights of the "TV wedding rehearsal", but he always concealed the fact that he had married Zhang Weiwei to the outside world.
The night's show sparked a ratings frenzy, but the audience did not expect that the handsome and dashing Prince Charming on the screen had already built a high wall.
Wu Zongxian's pursuit of Chen Xiaoxuan can be described as perseverance, after five years of spring and autumn, he has made great efforts. At the same time, however, he was in love with Cheung Wai, married, and had four children.
Wu Zongxian set strict terms for Zhang Weiwei to "hold a wedding for career development but not register, and the children are fully raised by Zhang Weiwei", and Zhang Weiwei finally surrendered to Wu Zongxian's extremely high evaluation of her as a "virtuous housekeeper".
A scene of the TV wedding rehearsal completely unveiled the truth that Wu Zongxian had deliberately concealed for many years. Zhang Weiwei's appearance made Chen Xiaoxuan suddenly realize that he had always been regarded as a junior.
In an instant, Chen Xiaoxuan felt unprecedented shock and grief. She couldn't believe that the man who had been deeply attached to her for five years had already entered the palace of marriage and had a family of her own.
All the tenderness and sweetness that Wu Zongxian showed to her on the screen now seems so ridiculous and hypocritical.
Throughout, Chen Xiaoxuan never foresaw that she would be reduced to the role of a third party. She thought that she was deeply attracted to Wu Zongxian and invested sincere emotions. Therefore, when the truth is ruthlessly revealed, the pain in her heart can be imagined.
In that context, many enthusiastic people came forward to speak out in support of Zhang Weiwei and her four children. Faced with such a situation, Chen Xiaoxuan felt extremely ashamed.
As more and more neighbors and passers-by joined the army to help Zhang Weiwei, Wu Zongxian could no longer hide his true colors and had to admit that the lady was indeed the biological mother of the children. However, he tried to quibble, claiming that he and Zhang Weiwei had only held a wedding ceremony and had not officially received a marriage certificate, so it could not be counted as a marriage betrayal.
This kind of shameless behavior made Chen Xiaoxuan's last trace of friendship with Wu Zongxian disappear.
Even more infuriating, a young girl named Candy reveals a shocking fact: she had a physical relationship with Wu Zongxian when she was only 17 years old. This means that Chen Xiaoxuan may not be a third party with a noble status by Wu Zongxian's side, but may be a fourth person who has been completely degraded.
Chen Xiaoxuan, who has strong self-esteem, hated Wu Zongxian's various bad behaviors, so she resolutely made a decision to throw herself into the arms of another long-time affectionate suitor - variety show producer Zhan Renxiong.
Zhan Renxiong is Wu Zongxian's friend in the industry, and the two of them have a deep foundation of cooperation and have jointly created many popular variety shows.
The love affair between Chen Xiaoxuan and Zhan Renxiong is like a boulder thrown into the lake, stirring up a thousand waves. At Christmas of that year, the entire Taiwan region was immersed in heated discussions about the Wu Zongxian scandal. Only Zhang Weiwei was severely threatened by Wu Zongxian, who threatened to cut off her and her children's livelihood, so that she could only stay at home during the New Year's festival and spend a lonely and lonely time.
Although the entanglement between Chen Xiaoxuan and Wu Zongxian brought her great psychological trauma, she did not choose to accept it and let others bully. In 2005, Chen Xiaoxuan finally chose to marry Zhan Renxiong, who had pursued her for many years, and the two also gave birth to a lovely son, named "Tie Di".
However, after marriage, Chen Xiaoxuan did not live the ideal happy life. On the contrary, her emotional conflict with Zhan Renxiong deepened. On social media, Chen Xiaoxuan once admitted that she was in a difficult period of "widowed parenting" - she had to take care of the children alone day and night, while Zhan Renxiong was mainly responsible for earning money to support the family.
Between them, there are many problems and differences that go beyond the emotional level. The relationship after marriage has gradually brought these problems to the surface, making both parties feel unprecedented pain.
After a year of painful struggle, they finally made a very difficult decision - divorce! With the passage of time, the old grievances can not be eliminated, and finally, in the special month of May 2006, Chen Xiaoxuan and Zhan Renxiong signed a divorce agreement under the witness of the lawyer, announcing that the relationship between the former lovers ended in this way. In the statement, they frankly expressed: "Although time will not heal the pain between us, today, we finally completed the divorce procedures at the household office.
"It is gratifying that the custody of the child Tie Di finally belonged to Chen Xiaoxuan.
At the same time, Zhang Weiwei's life has also fallen into an unprecedented predicament. In 2009, she bravely held a solo exhibition, and when asked if Wu Zongxian would attend, Zhang Weiwei replied humbly: "He will be here soon", however, it is not difficult to see from her exaggerated facial expressions that she is actually trying to cover up the truth.
Half a year later, in 2010, Zhang Weiwei was unfortunately diagnosed with breast cancer and had to undergo a long and arduous treatment process. Wu Zongxian once affectionately described those days as "as painful as being in purgatory" for Zhang Weiwei. Fortunately, during the treatment process, the relationship between Wu Zongxian and Zhang Weiwei seemed to show signs of temporary repair, and the two rarely appeared in the public eye together.
However, the good times are always short-lived, and in 2011, Wu Zongxian suffered a heavy blow in the LED light business. In order to help her husband repay her debts, Zhang Weiwei did not hesitate to sell a luxury house worth up to NT$140 million. She used her life savings to bring a short-term economic recovery to Wu Zongxian.
However, Wu Zongxian has never stopped on the road of extramarital affairs. In 2013, the media exposed the thrilling picture of Zhang Weiwei attempting suicide by overdosing at home because of Wu Zongxian's new love. betrayed again and again, making Zhang Weiwei tortured.
Although Wu Zongxian repeatedly hurt Zhang Weiwei in his married life, he never slackened his children's education, which can be said to have carefully cultivated them into adults. Especially for his son, Wu Zongxian devoted all his efforts to support. He himself came from a poor background and worked his way up the street as a street performer, and now he is full of pride to see his son admitted to the prestigious Berklee College of Music.
Well-known artists such as Ouyang Nana and Wang Yuan have been admitted to this school, which has aroused enthusiastic celebrations from fans.
Especially for the careful cultivation of the eldest daughter Wu Shanru, Wu Zongxian can be said to have given all his efforts. After 5 years of hard work, he successfully portrayed Wu Shanru, a rising star in Taiwan's entertainment industry, and helped her win the supreme glory of sweeping three Golden Bell Awards, which made his sister Xiao S admire.
Regarding the marriage of the second daughter Wu Zehan, Wu Zongxian was also carefully planned. She finally married into the Jiang Fengwei family, which can be called a good match and has a deep background. In contrast, the relatively low-key third daughter has always remained mysterious in front of the media.
As for the son who was once controversial because of marijuana smoking, although it once had a negative impact on Wu Zongxian, Wu Zongxian did not choose to give up on him. Instead, after a harsh reprimand, he recruited him to his command, where he was included in his own company for long-term internal training and arranged for him to make a name for himself on the show he hosted.
Wu Zongxian is undoubtedly a hot "king" in Taiwan's variety show industry, and his career achievements are remarkable. However, looking back at his private life, it is not difficult to see that he has very different double standards in his treatment of his family and lovers.
For his lover Chen Xiaoxuan, Wu Zongxian chased him for 5 years. He went all out to pave the way for Chen Xiaoxuan on the road of acting, created contact opportunities for her everywhere, and even helped her solve an old unfair brokerage contract.
On the TV screen, Wu Zongxian expressed his love to Chen Xiaoxuan with a touching degree of enthusiasm, he knelt down on one knee and kissed affectionately, which made the audience's blood boil.
When Chen Xiaoxuan learned that Wu Zongxian was married and had children, although she was shocked and heartbroken, she was not completely abandoned. Instead, she finally chose to leave Wu Zongxian and threw herself into the arms of his friend Zhan Renxiong, and began a short "junior" career.
However, for his wife Zhang Weiwei, Wu Zongxian failed to give due respect. Although Zhang Weiwei gave birth to four children for him and dedicated his life of youth and energy, he has long denied this marriage relationship in public.
When the scandal came to light, he even threatened to cut off the source of livelihood for Zhang Weiwei and her children, and the cruelty of the methods was staggering.
What is shocking is that when Zhang Weiwei unfortunately suffered from a terminal illness, Wu Zongxian turned a blind eye to it! While she struggled to survive in sickness and torment, he secretly continued to live a life of pleasure and indulgence outside.
It wasn't until Ms. Zhang Weiwei gave everything she had, reluctantly parted her love, and sold a luxury residence worth up to NT$140 million to repay Wu Zongxian's debts, that he reluctantly calmed down and appeared in the public eye with Zhang Weiwei.
However, this brief lull did not last long. In 2013, Wu Zongxian's new lover once again plunged Zhang Weiwei into a desperate situation, and even had the idea of suicide for a while. It is no exaggeration to say that Wu Zongxian's treatment of his wife Zhang Weiwei has never reflected true love and respect, but endless harm and betrayal.
