The matter of jealousy of talents is commonplace in the entertainment industry.
In the past, Leslie Cheung jumped from the Ronghua Hotel in Hong Kong because of depression, and then there was mainland actor Shang Yubo who suffered from depression because he was overwhelmed and jumped from a high-rise building.
Compared with the relatively stable suicides of actors in China, the suicides of Korean actors are frequent.
For decades, almost every year, well-known actors have chosen to end their lives because of pressure and various unspoken rules.
In our country, the situation is different from that in South Korea, and almost all of these actors who committed suicide were due to unsuccessful careers and pressure from all sides.
Even though the domestic entertainment industry is far less cruel and dark than the Korean entertainment industry, it is still impossible to avoid the actor's depression.
Shang Yubo, which we are going to talk about today, is a vivid example.
Shang Yubo was only 28 years old when he died.
He was born in an ordinary family in Jingzhou City, Hubei Province, and was content with his studies since he was a child, without much thought.
He's not a babbling character, and he's not someone who has to squeeze his head to prove his existence.
However, due to the advantages of physical condition, he often performed on stage since he was a child, and he also fell in love with acting and the stage.
Shining on the stage, he was also ridiculed by neighbors and classmates as a future rising star.
But his mother never wanted him to be a rising star, he just wanted his child to become a doctor according to their requirements.
Although parents have hopes for their children, the growth of children is far from being controllable by parents.
After studying hard, Shang Yubo successfully entered the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama in 2001.
At this time, he began to study acting professionally, and he was determined to become an actor.
Since he was a child, his parents have been highly demanding of learning, so he has always been very demanding of himself, and this can easily cause psychological problems.
His grades in the class are among the best, and many actors who went to school at the same time as him are already taking on some small works by virtue of their status as students of the Central Academy of Drama. But Shang Yubo didn't, he thought that learning professional knowledge was the most helpful for him.
Therefore, during his time in school, he did not take any extra money, but concentrated on learning professional knowledge, which he was also praised by the school teachers and principals.
After graduating, he starred in his first TV series "Army Special Forces".
In this drama, he partnered with Ding Jun, Huang He, Fu Dalong and other powerful old actors, and these relationships also allowed Shang Yubo's performance to get practical training.
Although he is a rookie actor, his performance is excellent. In 2006, he filmed the Republic of China emotional drama "The Singer of the End of the World", and in 2008, he acted in "The End of the World".
He is not the leading actor in these works, but his acting skills have never been questioned.
However, due to the fact that the development of the film and television industry was not very prosperous in those years, the works were not as endless as they are now.
So for an actor like Shang Yubo, who has high requirements for himself, it is inevitable that he will doubt himself.
Fortunately, in 2009, he ushered in his first male actor's work "The Story of My Mother's Family".
He played the role of Shen Jianhong in it, and after "The Story of My Mother's Family" became popular, Shang Yubo also became a first-line actor.
His handsomeness and excellence were finally recognized by the audience.
After that, he partnered with Wang Luodan to star in "Du Lala's Promotion".
Today's Wang Luodan has become a first-line actress.
If Shang Yubo is still alive, then I believe that their achievements are also equal.
But at this time, Shang Yubo already had serious psychological problems.
His psychological problems did not arise because of his entry into the industry, he had some minor psychological problems before entering the industry because of his strict requirements for himself.
In addition, when he was in college, other classmates went out to receive advertisements to earn money, but he only studied professional knowledge in school, and he didn't know whether what he was doing was right or wrong.
So he's always struggling, always imagining, and that's already burdening him a lot.
In the year of filming "The Story of My Mother's Family", although he became a first-line actor, there were many voices from netizens after he became popular.
There are good voices and bad voices, and these affect Shang Yubo's judgment even more.
At this time, his depression also began to kick in, and these were also discovered by his parents.
His parents took Shang Yubo to the hospital for treatment.
In response to Shang Yubo's problem, the doctor prescribed him a lot of medications.
But as we all know, antidepressant drugs have a lot of hormones, and these hormones will inevitably cause changes in his body shape.
For an actor, body shape and appearance are very important.
Originally, Shang Yubo was tormented because his development was not very good, and now he is hospitalized because of illness.
If his depression is exposed, he will become the target of public criticism.
And he can't afford to be pointed at by the audience as a patient.
Coupled with the use of antidepressants, his body shape has changed.
He is no longer the handsome Shang Yubo he used to be, how can he receive an invitation from a TV series and an invitation from the director?
Because of this thought, Shang Yubo always has no meal when he takes antidepressant drugs.
He didn't want hormones to control him, but then depression took control of him.
But at this time, he was still fighting against fate.
In 2010, he starred in the drama "You are in the Red Mansion, I am in the West".
On the big screen, he looks like he is always sunny and free of any diseases.
In the same year, he also served as the host of the Chinese New Year Gala in the United States.
At this time, he also failed to let the audience find the signs of depression.
It can be seen that for Shang Yubo, he attaches great importance to his career and his image in the hearts of the audience.
Because he cares too much about career success, but neglects his body.
In 2011, he filmed "Yaoshan Bandits".
The subject matter of this TV series is his new field, but it is his last work.
In October 2011, Shang Yubo committed suicide by jumping off a building in Beijing due to depression.
At this time, "The Story of My Mother's Family 3" and "Yaoshan Bandits" are still on the air.
It wasn't until Shang Yubo's death that the audience knew that he had long suffered from depression.
It is precisely because he has always treated everyone with a sunny attitude that everyone has ignored his illness.
In fact, many people's mental illness is not manifested, and there are many patients with sunshine depression.
They just look happy on the surface, but they always have some psychological problems inside. But they don't want others to follow them to annoy, so they show others in a sunny posture and leave the most uncomfortable side to themselves.
Shang Yubo is such a person.
Because he has been praised by everyone for his acting talent since he was a child, but they don't know that Shang Yubo is behind these acting talents is his excellent empathy ability.
It is precisely because of his ability to empathize with many people that he can have a good control and mastery of each role.
So when he plays every role, he can let the audience into the play.
It is precisely because the empathy ability is too strong that it is easy to get stuck in a role and it is difficult to get out.
He was already under pressure during his studies, and after stepping into the entertainment industry, his anxiety increased in the face of networking and the demand for works.
And after he starred in the work, he was very invested in the characters he played, and it was difficult to act.
During the filming of "Mother's Story 1", Shen Jianhong played by him was an excellent man and was the object of everyone's scrambling to emulate.
And after the broadcast, there are far more voices of praise than voices saying that he is not good.
This was satisfying for Shang Yubo, but because Shen Jianhong's effect was too great, it was difficult for him to come out for a while.
Later, when filming "My Mother's Story 2" and "My Mother's Story 3", the role of Shen Jianhong changed dramatically.
No viewer thought that Shen Jianhong, the representative of the good man in the first part, would eventually become a cheating man.
And the collapse of this image is a blow to the audience and friends, and the same is true for Shang Yubo.
Although he interpreted this character very successfully, he couldn't figure out why Shen Jianhong would become like this from a superb good man.
This also caused him to be unable to play for a long time, and he couldn't figure out why this was happening.
And this was an important factor in the worsening of his depression.
Shang Yubo climbed a high-rise building in Beijing alone before committing suicide, and when he climbed a high-rise building in Beijing, he was seen by passers-by.
But because Yu Bo climbed to the top of the building, he did not choose to jump off the building, but hesitated.
So passers-by at the time thought he was just a young man walking on the roof of the building.
According to the video data released on the Internet, Shang Yubo wandered on the roof of the building for three hours before jumping down.
Presumably at that time, he was also thinking back on his short 28 years.
Maybe he was also thinking about whether he shouldn't end his life so hastily, he still has parents to support, and fans who like him.
But no one showed up to save him.
Presumably, the control of depression at this time also made his psychology feel sour, so he chose to jump down.
Shang Yubo's death has brought depression to the attention of society again.
And after losing her son, the mother can only face the world alone.
After Shang Yubo's death, his mother started the Depression Foundation.
She hopes to help more young people like her son who suffer from depression and help them fall in love with the world again.
Don't let depression take control and lose your precious life.
She didn't save her son, so he wanted to save thousands of sons in the world.
Now, Shang Yubo has been dead for almost 13 years, but his tragedy still remains in the hearts of many people. How to prevent and alleviate depression has also become a difficult problem to solve.
Finally, I also hope that everyone can enjoy life, enjoy life, do not be bound by pessimism, and be a simple and happy ordinary person.
