Eat melons in half of the way

Some time ago, Hong Kong actress Li Qihong, who has been out of the circle for more than 10 years, announced her comeback.

Although she is only 54 years old, her appearance is not at all as smart and beautiful as when she was young, but looks extraordinarily ordinary because of her negligent management.

Compared with "Hong Kong girls" such as Zhong Liti, Xuan Xuan, and Zhang Keyi of the same age, Li Qihong really has no advantage in terms of appearance.

However, after washing the lead, she bravely walked in front of the camera and said to everyone:

"I know I'm not young anymore, but I believe that with my strength and experience, I will get more opportunities."

What few people know is that after marrying and quitting the circle, Li Qihong once gave up on herself because she couldn't find a job, and even suffered from depression.

Fortunately, she did not give up later, but went to study the professional knowledge of psychiatric nurses, and successfully changed careers to become an "angel in white".

Now 11 years have passed, Li Qihong has returned with the best attitude and no longer young appearance, although the splash is not big, but it is still the "best Guo Xiang" in the hearts of many audiences.

1. The "most beautiful Guo Xiang" pursued by Dawn

Some people say that the pinnacle of Li Qihong's life may be the fiery pursuit of refusing the dawn of the "Heavenly King".

Even many years later, some netizens turned out the footage of the other party's eyes "sticking" to their faces when they were interviewed.

That was indeed Li Qihong's peak stage.

As the first generation of "sweet girl", her entry into the circle seems logical:

In 1994, Li Qihong was selected by TVB for winning the third runner-up in the "Miss Hong Kong" election, and successfully signed a contract and starred in the situation drama "Happy Huazhili".

Although she was 24 years old at the time, she still maintained the sweetness of a girl, and her smile was like a spring flower.

But in fact, Li Qihong's family background is very ordinary, and it is not an exaggeration to even say that she is poor.

Born in Hong Kong in 1970, her parents moved to Canada when she was 6 years old.

Due to the language barrier and lack of background, my parents had to work odd jobs to support their families.

Watching them wash dishes in the restaurant every day, and going to the market to pick up vegetable leaves after a tiring day, Li Qihong, who is particularly sensible, also shares the housework in her own way.

When she grew up a little, she began to work part-time to support her family.

However, the house leak happened to rain overnight, and when Li Qihong was 13 years old, her mother broke out a family hereditary mental illness due to overwork, which made the family's life even more difficult.

After that, she had to work harder and look for opportunities to get ahead.

In 1994, Li Qihong, who returned to Hong Kong to visit relatives, accidentally learned that the Miss Hong Kong competition was underway, and at the instigation of her friends, she decided to give it a try.

At that time, there were also many beauties, in addition to Tan Xiaohuan, who won the championship, there were also Huang Jiying, Zhang Keyi, etc.

Because of her sweet smile, generous demeanor, and years of life training, she has become very optimistic and cheerful, and every time she appears, she can make the audience laugh with her wisdom, Li Qihong easily stood out among the players in the same period, and finally won the third place.

Then she won the support of TVB, and the partner of the first TV series was Liming, one of the "Four Heavenly Kings" whose career was in full swing.

At that time, the man debuted for 8 years, and was one of the superstars of film and television songs, known for his good looks, surrounded by countless beauties, and also partnered with Li Jiaxin, the "most beautiful Hong Kong sister".

But Liming fell in love with Li Qihong at first sight.

However, in the face of the confession of the "Heavenly King", she refused.

It is said that she had a boyfriend outside the circle who had been with her for many years, and the relationship between the two had always been very good, which also made Li Qihong feel very belonging, so she did not accept Liming.

In this regard, the man was not immediately disheartened, and the Hong Kong media at the time reported that in order to hug the beauty, he later confessed again, and even gave him a luxury car and a mansion, but he still did not get a nod.

But Li Qihong also has a deep affection for Liming, and has repeatedly declared to the public that in her heart, the other party is a brother-like friend.

The following year, she received an invitation from "The Condor Heroes" to play Guo Xiang, known as "Little East Evil", in the play.

This character is both good and evil, with a complex personality but also a charismatic personality, and under Li Qihong's performance, the audience fell without resistance.

Especially in the scene where Guo Xiang met Yang Guo for the first time, she used her aura to interpret what it means to be "one eye for ten thousand years".

Even in the later period, Yang Mi, Zhang Xueying, Wen Qi and other "little flowers" have performed "Guo Xiang" one after another, but in the hearts of many audiences, Li Qihong's version cannot be surpassed.

2. Sudden depression at the peak

There is no doubt that because of "Guo Xiang", Li Qihong "debuted at the peak" - after that, she won the title of "Top Ten TV Artists of Next Weekly" One TV Awards for two consecutive years.

In fact, compared with other stars, she was not very prolific at that time, and she seemed to be very Buddhist.

Just when everyone thought that this was just a cute-looking "sweet girl", and the roles she played one after another were nothing more than that, Li Qihong brought another surprise.

She entered the film industry at a later stage, playing Ah O, who likes women in "Golden Branches and Jade Leaves 2", Apple who lives under pressure in "Stormtrooper's Streets of Fury", and Ah Hui who is in a hopeless relationship in "Self-combing......

The above characters are not "sweet girls", and they all have their own characteristics.

Li Qihong also nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Academy Awards many times with her delicate performance, but unfortunately failed to win.

During this period, because of starring in the movie "Flying Love Novel", she met actor Zhong Hanliang, who was 4 years younger than herself.

At that time, the man had just debuted as an actor, and his previous roles were basically supporting roles, so he had been tepid.

Until 1995, Zhong Hanliang was discovered by singer Tai Zhengxiao, and then joined Yineng Motion Records, and after releasing two albums, he became a popular singer with the title of "Little Sun".

He sang and acted excellently, and then entered the movie "Flying Love Novel" supervised by Guan Jinpeng.

In the work, Li Qihong and Zhong Hanliang play a couple, and they also gave each other their first kiss on the screen.

It is reported that the man also has a good impression of her, and even on a variety show, in the face of the host's request to let Li Qihong eat mustard, he staged a heroic rescue of beauty: "Don't bully girls, I'll eat!" ”

However, it is still intentional, flowing and ruthless, and this hazy love will be gone with the filming and publicity of the work.

But Li Qihong's career is still at its peak:

In 1999, she returned to the TV drama market and co-starred with Su Youpeng and Lin Zhiying in the martial arts drama "The Peerless Double Pride".

Although she is not the first heroine in the play, she is not inferior to Chen Derong who plays "Tie Xinlan".

In the play, Zhang Jing, the "little pepper" played by Li Qihong, is brutal and spicy, dares to love and hate, especially in red.

This role has also become one of her classic screen images, and many years later, when everyone watches this beautiful martial arts work, they will still remember "Little Pepper".

And when she played this eccentric role, Li Qihong was 29 years old, but she was full of girlishness, even more agile than Chen Derong, who was 4 years younger.

But no one thought that this role was Li Qihong's last peak.

Moreover, her beautiful appearance seems to have "stayed" at the age of 29 forever, and then began to decline indefinitely.

After "The Peerless Double Pride", Li Qihong acted in film works such as "The Secret of the Moon" and "Lunch with Charles" one after another, but the production was suddenly reduced, and only one work was released every year.

It wasn't until 2002 that she broke the news, revealing that she suffered from depression due to family genetics and too much work pressure, and she was able to recover after 9 months of treatment.

During this time, Li Qihong has been living in Canada, and met her future husband Corey during the treatment process.

The man is an outsider, who makes a living in business, but he is very good to her, it is said that Li Qihong once tried to commit suicide when her illness relapsed, she felt that there was no point in living, and she would cry inexplicably when she woke up in the morning.

At this time, Corey was always by his side to gently untie the knot, and gradually make Li Qihong untie the knot and walk out of the shadows.

3. Returning after more than 10 years of career change

In 2004, 34-year-old Li Qihong and Corey held a low-key wedding, and then settled in a 1,500-foot mountain in Vancouver.

It was sparsely populated, but life was simple and natural, and the year after she got married, she gave birth to her son, Tate.

During this period, Li Qihong also starred in "Before and After Lu Xiaofeng's Decisive Battle", and Lin Zhiying was a surprise pairing.

But although she didn't have a lot of works at one time, she didn't meet an image like "Guo Xiang" or "Little Pepper" that suited her again, so the response was tepid.

In 2008, Li Qihong tried to return to Hong Kong to work, but she paid special attention when receiving the script - she could only act in comedy, and she was afraid that playing a tragic role would be too emotional and cause depression.

After tossing for a few years, she also went to the mainland to develop, but her works really didn't make any splashes.

With the passage of time, Li Qihong is no longer the "sweet girl" she was many years ago - because she seems to have lost her most precious recognition and label before.

In desperation, she planned to change careers:

But the first days were not easy, Li Qihong couldn't even find a job as a bakery waiter, "suddenly felt like a failure".

But in 2013, she started a nursing program in Canada, hoping to help people who suffer from mental illness like herself.

After her professional knowledge was in place, she chose to intern and work in the Department of Child Psychiatry.

Li Qihong said that she likes this job very much and hopes to be 70 or 80 years old.

But at the same time, she also said in an interview that she "never stopped", so she later made cameo appearances in works such as "Beijing Meets Seattle" and "Christmas Rose":

"I'm willing to do it if I don't give me money, help my friends, and it's fun, and I can travel!"

It can be seen that Li Qihong has already reconciled with her star identity, illness, and past peaks and troughs.

When she is not working, she and her husband take their son to exercise in nature.

Tate, a 19-year-old son, is good at cross-country skiing, shooting, rowing, etc., and has perfectly inherited his mother's sports cells.

Although she has stayed away from the circle of fame and fortune, Li Qihong still has a certain fan base, and occasionally posts life photos on her social platforms, which can also cause an uproar.

In the face of the public's questioning of her "no longer looking", she can also laugh and blacken herself:

"I'm so ashamed to see that actresses of the same age are so beautiful!"

But Li Qihong also said, "I refuse science and technology, and I still have confidence in my appearance without makeup."

Indeed, although she is not as smart and shining as 30 years ago, she seems to be a sonorous rose that blooms in a life of suffering:

Her self-confidence, perseverance and indifference are the most beautiful labels, which cannot be shaken and moved.
