In the New Year's Eve of 2017~2018, film superstar Takeshi Kaneshiro was finally moved by the touching emotions of the well-known director Mr. Chen Kexin after a long retirement from romance films, and decided to work together to shoot a new work "Like You".
However, as time flies, the deep longing for Ms. Zhou Xun in his heart has become deeper and deeper and indelible after years of precipitation.
In this grand promotional event, a host asked Takeshi Kaneshiro in a lighthearted and humorous way: "Is Miss Zhou Dongyu somewhat similar to Miss Zhou Xun back then?" Faced with such a sensitive topic, Takeshi Kaneshiro's eyes instantly dimmed, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he responded with only two concise and clear words: "Not like."
This indifferent reaction seems to be declaring to the outside world: in his mind, Zhou Xun is irreplaceable and unique, and no one can replace him. When he said this, the firmness and persistence revealed in his eyes moved everyone present.
Indeed, this unrequited love has lasted for more than ten years, and his deep affection for her has long been translated into lines of executed code, deeply imprinted in the depths of his soul and cannot be easily erased.
Takeshi Kaneshiro's expression revealed a heavy melancholy, as if the pain caused by Zhou Xun to him was too deep for him to let go. He closed his lips tightly and stared ahead with a burning gaze, his brow furrowed, as if he feared that he would fall into the vortex of emotions again.
There were witnesses who witnessed that when Takeshi Kaneshiro talked about this past, he couldn't help but burst into tears. It can be seen that this relationship is so unforgettable and unforgettable for him.
It is worth mentioning that it was in 2006 that a film called "If Love" created an eternal fate for the two of them. During his time in the crew, Takeshi Kaneshiro's care for Zhou Xun was unreserved and sincere.
Whenever Zhou Xun was busy on the set, he always waited silently on the sidelines, for fear that she would not be met if she had any needs. At one premiere, Takeshi Kaneshiro even carefully covered her palm over her palm until the camera swept over before reluctantly letting go, a scene that looked like a loving young couple to onlookers.
However, who would have expected that at such a moment of sympathy, Zhou Xun already had his own boyfriend, the famous stylist Daqi. What's even more distressing is that she even publicly stated that she is about to enter the marriage hall.
The host boldly asked in a half-joking tone, "If Jacky Cheung and Takeshi Kaneshiro are obsessed with pursuing your love at the same time, how will you choose?" At this moment, Zhou Xun replied with a confident and sincere smile, undoubtedly sprinkling a sharp salt on the heart of Takeshi Kaneshiro, who was already injured.
In the face of such a heavy blow, Takeshi Kaneshiro's heart was undoubtedly greatly impacted. Later, at a press conference in Japan, he finally couldn't contain the pain in his heart and expressed his true feelings honestly: "After the filming of this film, I just want to get away from this place as soon as possible, because I can't bear that her smile is not because of me."
Since then, Takeshi Kaneshiro has firmly decided to stay away from romance films, just to stop suffering from this endless torture. In the following decades, whenever he talked about Zhou Xun, he would always fall into a long silence, and his eyes would be eclipsed, as if she had become a never-ending nightmare and obsession in his heart.
This shocking emotional entanglement dates back to 2005. At that time, the well-known director Chen Kexin was looking for a suitable lead actor for his new work "If Love".
Takeshi Kaneshiro was still skeptical about the role of the male protagonist at first, after all, he had always been cautious about the theme of love.
However, when he learned that the heroine was actually Zhou Xun, all his worries disappeared in an instant. Takeshi Kaneshiro admitted that he "deeply admired Zhou Xun's superb acting skills in "I Have a Hollywood in Hong Kong", and said that he had long looked forward to the opportunity to work with her.
Therefore, he accepted the offer to star in the film without hesitation.
From that moment on, an emotional journey full of twists and turns began. At that time, Takeshi Kaneshiro was able to perform a love story with Zhou Xun, who he had loved for a long time, and he was naturally ecstatic.
He even confided his heart to his close friends in private: "I fell in love with Zhou Xun at first sight, she is not only beautiful and moving, but also extremely talented, and she is the ideal perfect woman in my mind."
Love at first sight often breeds an eternal emotional bond, and Takeshi Kaneshiro clearly has high hopes for this relationship. He devoted himself to the filming of the film with great excitement, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to get to know her more deeply, get closer to her, and perhaps draw a successful end to the love at first sight.
On the road of performing arts in the future, Takeshi Kaneshiro's meticulous care and care for Zhou Xun has undoubtedly become the focus of the audience's attention. Once, at a public event, we found that Zhou Xun secretly glanced at Takeshi Kaneshiro, who was putting on makeup, but was captured at that moment, and Takeshi Kaneshiro immediately retorted: "Actually, when we were eating together, you saw that he forgot something."
The tacit cooperation between them, as well as the deep pampering feeling, reminds people of a couple in love. In many public places, Takeshi Kaneshiro always waited patiently, naturally standing beside Zhou Xun, silently guarding her with his gentle gaze, for fear that she would not be able to provide intimate care in time if she had any needs.
At that time, Takeshi Kaneshiro seemed to be the only one left in his eyes. His deep affection for Zhou Xun has gone beyond the expression of words. In his life behind the scenes, Takeshi Kaneshiro silently conveys the love deep in his heart in his unique way.
However, what is unexpected is that just when their relationship is like glue, Zhou Xun already has the other half of his heart. In order to skillfully avoid Takeshi Kaneshiro's pursuit, Zhou Xun had to keep his distance from Takeshi Kaneshiro in public, and even announced in public that he was about to enter the marriage hall, and the object turned out to be her stylist boyfriend Daqi.
In the face of such a blow, Takeshi Kaneshiro's heart was undoubtedly hit hard. He was originally full of expectations, hoping to take this opportunity to get in touch with Zhou Xun further, but he didn't expect that she already had someone else's place in her heart.
This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him and completely shattered his dreams.
It is precisely because of this hidden emotional entanglement that finally ended in vain, so that Takeshi Kaneshiro has never set foot in any love-themed films for more than ten years, for fear that he will be bound by the memories of the past and fall into the pain from which he cannot extricate himself.
Whenever he was asked if he would like to star in a romance movie again, he would always fall into a long silence, with a melancholy face and erratic eyes, as if the pain Zhou Xun gave him was too deep to let go easily.
Many years later, Takeshi Kaneshiro's friend Cai Kangyong once said with great emotion: "Once, I talked to Takeshi Kaneshiro about this past in the car, but as soon as the words fell, he choked up and cried, lying on the steering wheel for a long time and refused to get up.
From Cai Kangyong's vivid depiction, we can get a glimpse of how pure and dedicated Takeshi Kaneshiro's sincere and firm love for Zhou Xun is! It is really touching that a bland conversation can detonate the torrent in his heart.
Although time flies, the regret and helplessness buried deep in my heart are still vivid, as if it happened yesterday.
Cai Kangyong recalled that at that time, Takeshi Kaneshiro seemed to have fallen into an unprecedented trough and pain. He was lying alone on the steering wheel, his shoulders trembling slightly, as if trying to suppress some kind of turbulent emotion.
Cai Kangyong has never seen him so out of shape, and he can't help but sigh that the "hopeless love" behind this friendship has undoubtedly become the regret of Takeshi Kaneshiro's life.
It is true that although Takeshi Kaneshiro always knew that he could not win Zhou Xun's heart, he still integrated his endless affection for her into every bit of his daily life. In his own unique way, he quietly treasured this relationship in his heart until the last moment of his life.
This deep unrequited love is destined to become an eternal pain in his heart.
Cai Kangyong watched his friend fall into endless sadness, and his heart couldn't help but feel a wave of sympathy. There is nothing more painful in the world than this: a heart that truly loves you, but does not get the slightest response from you.
Now, Zhou Xun has gradually entered the second half of his life, but he is still single. I don't know if the woman who once got Takeshi Kaneshiro's sincere love can still look back and take a look at the person who gave her her heart.
What could be more satisfying than getting a sincere and lasting love? Takeshi Kaneshiro's sincerity is like a beam of bright sunshine, even if it is hidden by you in a vague cloud, it still illuminates your heart.
Zhou Xun, can you still feel that light? It is so persistent, so enthusiastic, even after the vicissitudes of the years, the baptism of wind and rain, it still shines. Perhaps, you didn't realize the existence of this light back then, and took it for granted.
However, please believe that genuine love is always rare and precious.
The journey of life is not an easy road, and being able to truly fall in love is undoubtedly the most precious and rare thing in life. However, Mr. Kaneshiro's affection for you is extremely innocent and firm, and this love has not changed even half a point through the vicissitudes of time.
This kind of affection is really a rare treasure in the world, and it is worth your best to care for and cherish.
There are no constants in life, and if you have missed a good opportunity, don't be too sorry. Now is the time to regain control, and I believe that one day, you will be grateful for the opportunity to renew your emotional bonds.
