With perseverance and diligence beyond ordinary people, she humbly accepted the teachings of her teachers, and at the same time actively fought for the opportunity to go out to shoot and practice, and gradually accumulated rich acting experience.
Let's go back to the classic costume drama "Liao Zhai", the heroine played by Chen Hong is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and her gentle and virtuous costume appearance has won warm praise from the audience, which undoubtedly opens up a broader world for her in the film and television industry.

With her excellent performance again and again, she quickly rose to prominence in the class and finally won high recognition from her teachers. After graduating, she successfully entered the prestigious National Theatre.
Immediately afterwards, she was fortunate to receive an invitation from the crew of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and played the role of Diao Chan in it. Although it is only a supporting role, Diao Chan, as one of the four beauties in ancient China, has naturally very strict casting criteria.
Chen Hong's dignified and beautiful temperament just fits the role setting, coupled with her well-crafted styling and her superb acting skills, when she wears gorgeous costumes, she seems to be a character who came out of ancient books, which is refreshing, and this style has also become a milestone in her acting career.

Exploring Chen Hong's family history, we find that she was born into a family with a strong cultural atmosphere. Her maternal grandfather, Tang Tianji, was a founding lieutenant general who once served as a commander and made great contributions to the cause of the country's peaceful reunification.
He participated in many important battles to defend his homeland, and those who died held him in deep respect.
Chen Hong's grandmother was even more prestigious, having served as the main person in charge of the education department, and as an educator, she gave birth to countless outstanding students. The profound family background and outstanding genes have undoubtedly created a superior and noble humanistic environment for Chen Hong.
Part 3: Chen Hong and Chen Kaige's acquaintance
When it comes to the acquaintance of Chen Hong and Chen Kaige, it has to be traced back to the crew of the movie "Farewell My Concubine", which attracted much attention in 1993. At that time, Chen Hong, accompanied by friends, stepped into the crew for the first time to visit and met Chen Kaige, who was the director, for the first time.
However, at that time, they didn't have much to do with each other, they just knew each other's names.
This seemingly uneventful marriage came to an end temporarily, and it was not until a personnel adjustment of the crew of "Fengyue" a few years later that the two held hands again.
The originally scheduled heroine retreated for various reasons, and the crew urgently needed to find a suitable person to fill the vacancy. It was at this critical moment that Chen Hong was recommended by someone with a heart and attracted the attention of director Chen Kaige.
Soon after, Chen Hong came to the audition, and as she was ready to put on makeup, she closed her eyes intently and asked the makeup artist to create her makeup. At this moment of tranquility, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind me.
Chen Hong subconsciously opened her eyes, and through the dressing mirror, she found that Chen Kaige was engrossed in observing her every move.
Chen Hong was obviously disturbed by this sudden and focused gaze, and an indescribable emotion also emerged in the depths of her heart. She couldn't even be sure if this strange feeling had quietly developed a good impression on the stranger who had only one side in the crew of "Farewell My Concubine".
However, at that moment, the fate of the two began to bloom gradually.
In the days that followed, Chen Hong was invited to attend a salon gathering of directors. In this seemingly unintentional but mysterious occasion, her innocence, frank and straightforward personality and unique charm deeply attracted Chen Kaige.
At that moment, although the two were silent and speechless, the magnificence of both sides' hearts seemed to be clearly conveyed to each other. In such an unexpected scene, as if arranged by fate, they naturally came together, and the emotional bond was tightly entwined.
Even in the days that followed, Chen Kaige was in a foreign country to shoot for his works, and he could not always be by Chen Hong's side, but it did not prevent the two from heating up step by step.
They soothe the pain of longing with longing with a longing conversation every night, maintaining a delicate and fragile spiritual connection.
Although the cost of long-distance calls at the time was undoubtedly a huge financial burden for ordinary people, in any case, their close ties were never alienated in the slightest.
Although Chen Hong's mother once firmly opposed the relationship because Chen Kaige was 16 years older than her daughter and had two failed marriages, she was ultimately moved by her daughter's firm determination and perseverance.
More importantly, Chen Kaige solemnly made a lifelong vow to Chen Hong, and this sincere promise shocked Chen Hong, and the doubts in his heart disappeared.
So, after experiencing many obstacles from the family, they finally ushered in a happy ending and walked into the sacred wedding hall hand in hand.
Fourth, the bits and pieces of sweet married life
In the days after marriage, Chen Hong and Chen Kaige lived an enviable sweet life. As time passed, Chen Hong's mother, who was initially strongly opposed, gradually saw her son-in-law's deep affection for her daughter, and her views on this marriage changed, and she began to look at it with an open and inclusive mind.
Sometimes, when they have an argument over trivial matters, the mother will even mediate on the side of the son-in-law, who has obviously fully accepted and trusted the son-in-law.
Time is like an arrow, time is like a shuttle, and their relationship is getting deeper and deeper. At the recording site of a variety show, on a long table full of exquisite delicacies, Chen Kaige suddenly recited a love letter affectionately, revealing his endless love for his wife Chen Hong between the lines.
