Preface
Who is he? An ordinary worker, an actor who unexpectedly became popular, a husband who never abandons, and a hero in the eyes of a daughter.
This man is Wang Weiping, a man who interprets life in his own way.
Ordinary boy, a turning point of fate (early 50s of the 20th century - 1976)
Wang Weiping was born in Shanghai in the early 1950s to a family of ordinary workers.
Although his family is not wealthy, his parents' words and deeds have taught him the value of hard work and kindness since he was a child.
The young Wang Weiping excelled in his studies, and his parents hoped that he would be admitted to university and become the pride of the family.
However, the cancellation of the college entrance examination made him have to face the reality, give up his studies, and enter the automobile mechanical factory as a boiler worker.
Burning a boiler seems simple, but it actually requires unimaginable hard work.
The scorching heat of the furnace and the dust of the coal made Wang Weiping spend every day in torment.
His face was blackened and his hands were calloused, but he never complained and remained optimistic and resilient.
In the midst of those hard days and days, he has a dream hidden in his heart - to become an actor.
In 1976, 22-year-old Wang Weiping ushered in a turning point in his life.
The Shanghai Film Studio recruited actors from the public, and his co-workers encouraged him to give it a try.
With his outstanding appearance and simple temperament, he passed layers of selection and became a film actor.
At that moment, he knew his life was about to change.
Unexpected fame, first taste of the sweet and sour of the showbiz (1976-1984)
After entering Shanghai Film Studio, Wang Weiping began a one-year performance training.
He studied with an open mind and studied hard, and soon made a name for himself among his teachers and classmates.
In 1979, an unexpected opportunity came, and he was ordered to play the role of "Xiaoge", the actor of the movie "Little Characters".
This honest and honest image has many similarities with Wang Weiping himself, and he integrates his true temperament into the role without reservation.
After the movie was released, the audience praised this simple and kind "new youth", and Wang Weiping became a household name overnight.
From obscurity to the limelight, he experienced the excitement and confusion of fame.
In the face of the flood of film appointments and the favor of many beautiful actresses, he has always maintained a firm heart.
Because, deep in his heart, there is already a person who wants to join hands for a lifetime.
Love at first sight, unwavering love (1984-1990)
Before becoming famous, Wang Weiping was entrusted by the director to go to a medical university to pick up a girl for dinner.
The first time they met, the girl's elegant temperament and conversation deeply attracted him.
When they parted, he plucked up the courage to ask, "Can I come to you later?" The girl's answer made his heart soar: "You can come whenever you want." "
Since then, Wang Weiping and the girl have started a sweet relationship.
Although his career is booming, Wang Weiping has never thought of changing his mind.
In 1984, they tied the knot with the blessings of family and friends and began a happy married life.
In order to give his wife peace of mind, he gave her all his savings, and whenever he spent more than 500 yuan, he would ask for his wife's consent in advance.
This may seem incomprehensible to others, but in Wang Weiping's heart, this is respect and care for his wife.
In 1988, his wife gave birth to their pearl - daughter Wang Zichuan.
In order to provide a better living environment for their children, the father-in-law and mother-in-law decided to go to Hong Kong to do business.
Since Wang Weiping's career focus is on the mainland, the couple get together less and leave more, but their relationship has not diminished at all.
Every time Wang Weiping comes back from the set, he will take time to come to Hong Kong and enjoy the joy of family.
Career Downturn, Family Responsibility Choices (1990-2004)
In the 90s, with the rise of the new generation of actors, Wang Weiping's career began to face a cold winter.
Drama appointments are decreasing, salaries are declining, and the former fame is gradually fading.
In 1990, his wife took her young daughter to Hong Kong to join her parents in business.
While Wang Weiping is running for his career in the mainland, he is trying to maintain this family that spans two places.
However, balancing career and family is not an easy task.
During filming, there is less gathering and more separation, which makes his wife feel very aggrieved.
She asked Wang Weiping: "You have been filming, and you have less and less time to spend with me and your daughter, will you change your mind?" This sentence is like a slap in the face, Wang Weiping realized that over the years, he has paid too much for his career, but ignored the feelings of his wife and daughter.
After careful consideration, Wang Weiping made a difficult decision - to quit the entertainment industry and devote himself to his family.
It didn't happen overnight, he spent a few years gradually fading out, and after filming his last TV series in 2004, he left the mainland and came to Hong Kong to reunite with his wife and daughter.
He wants to make up for the absence with actions and warm this home with full love.
Retirement life, a happy time for a family of three (2004-present)
From an actor to a "full-time dad", Wang Weiping adapted to this role change.
He accompanies his daughter to and from school, takes her to the park to play, and even secretly follows behind, for fear that his daughter will encounter any danger.
He learned to cook his daughter's favorite dishes, beat his wife's back after work, and gave support and advice when his wife was in trouble with business.
This once beautiful big star put away all the edges and corners in front of his family and turned into a considerate husband and father.
Under Wang Weiping's careful care, his daughter Wang Zichuan grew up healthily like a strong seedling.
She inherited the excellent genes of her parents, not only outstanding in appearance, but also versatile.
When she was in college, she chose to return to her father's hometown of Shanghai to study at East China Normal University.
After graduating, with her love for travel and writing, she started writing under the pseudonym "Maoli", published several works, and became a well-known travel blogger.
On the Internet, she has attracted a large number of fans with her sincerity and wisdom, with more than 6 million followers.
And all these achievements are inseparable from the silent dedication of his father Wang Weiping over the years.
In 2022, Wang Weiping ushered in another important moment in his life - he became a "grandfather".
When he hugged his little grandson, he was full of emotion.
Looking back, he is glad that he chose a family in the first place, so that he can exchange for today's family happiness.
Although he is 69 years old, he is still the simple and optimistic Wang Weiping.
