Preface
Zheng Xiaoning, this name is a household name in the entertainment industry. As a veteran actor, his iconic "bubble voice" and superb acting skills have added flavor to countless film and television dramas. However, do you know what kind of vicissitudes of life this actor, who is praised by the audience as the "top of the uncle circle", has experienced a vicissitudes of life without losing warmth?
Newly entered the entertainment industry
Regarding Zheng Xiaoning's past, many people may only stay at his familiar voice and wonderful acting skills. In fact, before entering the showbiz, Zheng Xiaoning's life trajectory can be described as ups and downs.
In 1961, Zheng Xiaoning was born in an acting family in Inner Mongolia, and has been inseparable from fellow actress Sarina since childhood. The two are good friends of childhood sweethearts. However, when he was in junior high school, Zheng Xiaoning had a different kind of affection for Sarina - he began to have a crush on this lively and lovely girl.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, Zheng Xiaoning's academic performance was not outstanding, and he was also confused about the future at that time. Luckily, an interview with a repertory troupe pointed him in a new direction, and he began his acting career, and his friendship with Sarina gradually drifted apart.
In 1980, Zheng Xiaoning officially starred in his first film and television work "The Appointment of Director Qiao", opening a new chapter for him on the screen. Since then, he has been like a rising star, and while working hard, he has also begun to become famous.
The bamboo basket of love was empty, and the two marriages did not last long
Fortunately, Zheng Xiaoning is rising in his career, but his love life is bumpy. Everyone knows that he has always had a crush on his countryman friend Sarina, although he had the courage to confess his heart to her, but unfortunately, Sarina still rejected him, and the two gradually drifted apart.
This is undoubtedly a huge blow to Zheng Xiaoning, and it has hurt him emotionally. It wasn't until 2000 that he met his "confidant" again at the age of 39 - Lin Haihai, who was 11 years younger than him. The two fell in love and got married, Zheng Xiaoning thought that he had finally found a home, but the good times did not last long, and only 3 years later, they parted ways and ended this short marriage.
In retrospect, some media speculated that it may be the big age gap and different concepts between the two that caused the shortness of this marriage. But what is even more regrettable is that for Zheng Xiaoning, the first attempt at marriage ended in failure.
But fortunately, in 2011, Zheng Xiaoning, who was over half a hundred years old at the time, met his new confidant Huang Yuli again, and the two became husband and wife and had a son. It seems that all this is going to start again, and the life of a family of three will be full of sunshine.
However, the reality is often skinny, and in 2022, Huang Yuli publicly bombarded that the marriage between the two had broken down, and said that the child would be raised by her. In this way, Zheng Xiaoning's second marriage fell short.
Although his love life has been fluctuating, fortunately, Zheng Xiaoning is at least fruitful in his career. On the long and tortuous road of acting, he used his own hard work and perseverance to finally fight for a world of his own.
still remembers that in 2002, when Zheng Xiaoning played a small role in the TV series "The Ultimate Unsolved Case", he had already emerged and shown his strength. And two years later, he played the role of Liu Bowen in the costume drama "Zhu Yuanzhang", which can be described as a big explosion of acting skills and became a well-known "old drama bone" in one fell swoop.
Since then, Zheng Xiaoning can be said to have paid equal attention to word-of-mouth and popularity. He has successively starred in word-of-mouth masterpieces such as "The King of Lanling" and "Sweeping the Black Storm", whether it is a decent hero or a villain, he is comfortable and easy to control. Even in the TV series "Fearless" to be broadcast at the end of 2023, he can still see the superb acting skills and unique temperament of this "old drama bone".
Zheng Xiaoning, who is now 63 years old, still maintains a good condition, in addition to film and television dramas, he also sells tea live on short video platforms from time to time, which can be described as "returning to the roots". Looking at the humor of this "old gentleman" in the camera, it is hard to imagine how many times he has experienced struggle and confusion in his heart.
However, it is the scribbled experience along the way that has created Zheng Xiaoning, who is known as the "top of the uncle circle" in our eyes today. His unswerving persistence in his dreams and his dedication to his career are really gratifying and admirable. Now seeing that this "living fossil of the entertainment industry" is still brave and tireless, we sincerely applaud him.
The emotional wound has not healed and has entered into marriage
When it comes to Zheng Xiaoning's emotional line, we have to start with his first love. Fellow actress Sarina is not only his childhood sweetheart, but also the hazy crush in his heart.
Zheng Xiaoning was not tall back then, and his appearance was not handsome and handsome, but his love for drama was far better than ordinary people. Perhaps it is this persistence that makes the heart of an innocent boy slowly attracted by Sarina, who is also a drama lover.
Helplessly, when Zheng Xiaoning finally mustered up the courage to reveal his heart to Sarina, the other party politely rejected his confession on the grounds of "we can only be brothers and sisters". This was undoubtedly a major setback in Zheng Xiaoning's life back then, which made him gamble on the road of feelings.
What is even more regrettable is that Sarina's refusal seems to have planted a seed of trauma in Zheng Xiaoning's heart since then, which will not heal for a long time. Even marriages many years later may be clouded by this. Just when the emotional wound was not healed, in 2000, 39-year-old Zheng Xiaoning met Lin Haihai, who was 28 years old at the time, and the two met and fell in love, and soon stepped on the red carpet.
At first, they got along day and night, and the two were indeed heart-to-heart and affectionate. It was only soon that the generation gap surfaced. As a senior, Zheng Xiaoning's life style is relatively conservative and stable, while Lin Haihai tends to be more flamboyant and pursue fashion avant-garde.
The contradictions between the two began to accumulate: Lin Haihai felt that Zheng Xiaoning was "old-fashioned" and outdated, while Zheng Xiaoning thought that Lin Haihai's concept was too "exaggerated", and the three-minute heat liked the new and hated the old.
In this way, after only 3 years of survival, the first marriage of the two came to an abrupt end. According to media analysis, the generation gap caused by the age gap may be an insurmountable gap for the couple.
After learning the hard way, Zheng Xiaoning fell in love again in 2011, this time his wife was Huang Yuli, who was 22 years younger than him. The marriage between the two thought that there would be a good start, but who knew that it also followed in the footsteps of Zheng Xiaoning's first two relationships.
In 2022, after 11 years of marriage, Huang Yuli posted on social platforms that the marriage between the two had broken down, and said that the children would be raised by her. At this moment, Zheng Xiaoning's world fell into a haze again, he was depressed, his life was almost closed, and he lost contact with the outside world for a while.
end
Until recently, Zheng Xiaoning reappeared in the public eye, selling tea through live broadcast on short video platforms, and his state gradually improved. It's just that from his slightly tired eyes, we can still see the vicissitudes left by the years on him.
It is not difficult to imagine what a blow the repeated trauma of falling out of love and divorce should be to an old actor over 60 years old. Perhaps it was this inextricable depression that made Zheng Xiaoning once at a low point in his life.
Despite the infinite sunshine, Zheng Xiaoning's life always seems to be dark and gloomy. But thankfully, he gritted his teeth and survived this difficult time after all, and rediscovered the meaning of life and the place of life.
