1. Prologue of life: A young man from a simple rural family, Shi Liang, has been enthusiastic about art since he was a child, but his family's economic situation has made him suffer hardship, and he has experienced the years of settling in the countryside and being tempered by setbacks.
But with his tenacious and unyielding spirit, he finally entered the door of Beijing University of Foreign Chinese and opened the opportunity for his fate to counterattack!
Shi Liang was born in an ordinary farmhouse courtyard, although the family predicament brought him a lot of troubles, but his parents went all out and devoted themselves to the education and interest cultivation of their children.
Since his childhood, Shi Liang has been deeply fascinated by the ancient and mysterious art world of Peking Opera.
In the early days, he could not keep up with the pace of his peers, and even suffered from the rejection of his peers, and tasted the bitterness of loneliness and helplessness at a young age. However, Shi Liang has never wavered in his persistent pursuit of art, and he knows that only by making unremitting efforts can he reverse the trajectory of his fate.
Sure enough, with a strong will, he quickly stood out and became the best of his class.
Time flies, Shiliang ushered in the moment of graduating from junior high school, and there was a nationwide upsurge of "going to the mountains and going to the countryside". As one of the first young people to respond to the call, Shi Liang followed his family to the countryside and started a new life journey.
In that environment far away from the palace of art, he had to face the difficult reality of herding and farming, and completely lost the opportunity to contact art. For a teenager with artistic dreams, this is undoubtedly a heavy blow and endless pain.
At that time, Shi Liang's heart must have been full of loneliness and contradictions.
Despite the hardships and hardships of life, Shi Liang never chose to give up. In between the heavy farm work, he always adhered to the belief of self-learning English and reciting classic literature, and fought for the future in his own unique way.
Finally, in 1977, the college entrance examination system was restored, and after two failed attempts, Shi Liang was finally admitted to the French major of Beijing Foreign Chinese University, and since then, his life has opened a new chapter.
2. Study trip to France: After graduating with a master's degree, Shi Liang was fortunate to get a valuable opportunity to go to the University of Paris IV in France for further study. During his time in France, he not only played the role of an actor, but also was lucky to meet the other half of his life - Cong Shan, and the two fell in love and entered the palace of marriage.
Throughout his university career, Shi Liang always adhered to his passion and dedication to art, and he enthusiastically devoted himself to various art activities, and won the precious opportunity to study abroad in France with his outstanding performance.
When he was in the romantic country of France, Shi Liang bravely stepped into some crews, played role roles or participated in dramas, and made a living from it. Despite the embarrassment of life, his firm belief in becoming a professional actor in the future has never wavered.
However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on people, and not long after Shi Liang joined a company, the company suffered a storm of layoffs, and he had to return to the path of art. However, Shi Liang was not discouraged by this, on the contrary, he was full of endless longing and expectation for the future.
Just before embarking on a journey to a foreign country, a high school classmate approached Shi Liang and informed him that an internationally acclaimed Italian director was looking for a young talent in Beijing who was fluent in English and had outstanding acting talent.
Although this cooperation did not work out due to time conflicts, Shi Liang firmly believes that there will be more opportunities waiting for him in the future.
After coming to France, Shi Liang was warmly welcomed by many French advertising and fashion companies because of his unique charm of oriental faces, and was fortunate to participate in the shooting of print advertisements.
It was in such a seemingly ordinary filming process that he met a Chinese girl named Cong Shan, and the two fell in love at first sight, quickly established a deep friendship, and then developed into a lover relationship, and finally tied the knot and went to the palace of marriage together.
