On the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, Shao Feng is a familiar face to the audience.
The 53-year-old comedian, who now lives in a high-end residential area, is still active in the film and television industry and social platforms. However, what few people know is that he once sold his car and house and bankrupted his family in order to treat his wife who was suffering from "immortal cancer".
From obscurity to a frequent visitor to the Spring Festival Gala, from being on the verge of bankruptcy to living a prosperous life, Shao Feng's life experience can be described as ups and downs. So what is it that has sustained him through the low point of his life?
In 1999, Shao Feng's life was turned upside down. He had just gotten married that year and was immersed in the happiness of his newlywed. However, fate played a cruel joke on him.
His wife, Zhao Xia, was suddenly diagnosed with lupus erythematosus, a disease known as the "cancer of immortality" that requires long-term treatment and prohibitively high medical costs.
At that time, Shao Feng was just a little-known actor with a meager income. Faced with astronomical medical expenses, he only had 3,000 yuan in savings.
The newlyweds were suddenly in a desperate situation.
Shao Feng did not give up. He traveled around borrowing money from friends and family. When borrowing money didn't solve the problem, he made a difficult decision: sell the house and car he had just bought.
This is undoubtedly a huge blow for the young couple who have just started a family. But for the sake of his wife's health, Shao Feng gritted his teeth and made this choice.
The pressures of life forced Shao Feng to replan his career. In 2000, he made up his mind to devote himself to the entertainment industry. He accepted all kinds of performance opportunities, regardless of the size of the role, just to earn more money to treat his wife's illness.
Shao Feng's efforts finally paid off. In 2005, his performance in the TV series "Don't Take Bean Bags for Dry Food" attracted the attention of the audience. Although he is only a supporting role, his acting skills and professionalism have won everyone's appreciation.
This role opened up visibility for him and also led to more job opportunities.
Despite the physical conditions that limited his choice of roles, Shao Feng never complained. He treats every role as an opportunity to hone his acting skills, and no matter how small the supporting role, he puts his heart and soul into it.
This professional attitude gradually gave him a reputation in the circle and laid the foundation for his later career development.
After Shao Feng came to prominence in "Don't Take Bean Bags and Improper Dry Food", many people thought he was an actor who was a "halfway monk". In fact, Shao Feng's artistic journey began as early as when he was 18 years old.
Shao Feng, who was born in Jinan, Shandong, has suffered a lot of troubles since he was a child because of his short stature. But instead of giving up on himself, he worked harder to improve himself.
At the age of 18, following his father's advice, Shao Feng joined the army.
I thought I could show my singing voice in the army's art troupe, but I didn't expect to be assigned to the cooking class by mistake. Others may feel disappointed, but Shao Feng thought, "There are also opportunities to learn here!" While he was busy cooking, he seized his free time to learn various talents from other comrades.
Opportunity always favors those who are prepared. One day, an actor in the propaganda team suddenly asked for leave, and Shao Feng took the initiative to ask Ying to perform on stage. Unexpectedly, the lines he usually secretly memorized and the performance skills he observed made his first appearance on stage amaze everyone.
Since then, Shao Feng has found his direction in life.
In 1995, Shao Feng entered the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts to study acting and began his professional art career. Here he eagerly learned acting skills, laying a solid foundation for his future acting career.
Two years later, he proved himself with his talent. With his self-written and self-performed work "Class Meeting", Shao Feng won the championship of the "Top 100 Sketch Grand Prix" in one fell swoop, showing his talent in sketch creation and performance.
However, for Shao Feng, the biggest challenge is yet to come. That is to be on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. Since 1998, Shao Feng has participated in the rehearsals of the Spring Festival Gala every year, but he always passes by the stage.
But he didn't give up, but kept improving his performance.
Finally in 2007 the opportunity came. Friend Guo Donglin invited Shao Feng to collaborate on the sketch "Going Home". This time, Shao Feng finally got his wish and appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala for the first time.
His superb acting skills and unique comedic style immediately won the love of audiences across the country.
Since then, Shao Feng has become a frequent visitor to the Spring Festival Gala. He has appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala many times, bringing joy to audiences across the country. From the little soldier in the cooking class to the resident guest of the Spring Festival Gala, Shao Feng has realized his artistic dream with his own hard work and persistence.
Shao Feng's success on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala made many people think that his life was flat. But in fact, behind the spotlight, Shao Feng still faces huge challenges.
His wife, Zhao Xia, was in good and bad condition and needed long-term treatment. Shao Feng finds time to accompany his wife every day after work. For a while, Zhao Xia's condition worsened and she even needed to use a wheelchair.
Shao Feng pushed his wheelchair and took his wife to the park for a walk, patiently helping her exercise and learning to walk again.
Someone persuaded Shao Feng that it was better to give up if it was so hard. But Shao Feng said: "She is my wife, and we are a family." I'll be there for her no matter what happens.
It is this persistence and responsibility that makes the relationship between Shao Feng and Zhao Xia deeper and deeper.
In his career, Shao Feng also showed a relentless spirit. Although he emerged in the Spring Festival Gala, Shao Feng did not pick and choose. On the contrary, most of the roles he received were still supporting roles.
Some actors may feel aggrieved, but Shao Feng has his own ideas.
He often said: "There are no small roles, only small actors." "No matter how small the role, Shao Feng will devote himself wholeheartedly. Once he only had a few scenes in a TV series, but he still started figuring out the role half a month in advance, and even deliberately grew a beard for the role.
Everyone in the crew was touched by his professionalism.
Shao Feng's attitude not only won the respect of industry insiders, but also impressed the audience with him. Slowly, Shao Feng became the "image spokesperson" in the hearts of many ordinary people.
He did not have a handsome appearance, nor did he have a prominent family background. But it is this ordinariness that brings him closer to the lives of the audience. An audience member said: "Watching Shao Feng act, it's like seeing an acquaintance in life, which is very kind."
In life, Shao Feng is also a warm-hearted person. Once he met a young actor on the set and looked nervous. Shao Feng took the initiative to chat and told him a lot of acting tips.
The young man later said: "Teacher Shao Feng is not only a good actor, but also a good person.
In this way, Shao Feng used his persistence and responsibility to not only protect his family, but also win respect in the entertainment industry. His story has become a ray of light in many people's hearts, illuminating every corner of ordinary life.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Shao Feng is 53 years old. Looking back, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. The house and car that had been sold to treat his wife's illness have now been repurchased and they are living in a high-end residential complex.
What is most gratifying to him is that his wife Zhao Xia's condition has been effectively controlled, and the lives of the two have become more and more happy.
Although the years have left traces on Shao Feng's face, his enthusiasm for acting has not diminished in the slightest. Every Spring Festival, people can see him on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
He also actively participated in the filming of various film and television dramas, bringing joy to the audience with his performances.
With the development of the times, Shao Feng also keeps pace with the times. He began to share his daily life on social platforms, allowing fans to see the real Shao Feng off camera.
Sometimes he will post some funny short videos, and sometimes he will share some life insights. These contents make fans feel that Shao Feng is like his uncle next door, kind and cute.
Once Shao Feng shared a video of himself cooking with his wife on social platforms. In the video, the two talked and laughed, and cooperated tacitly. This video quickly went viral, and netizens left messages saying: "This is what love looks like at its best."
When Shao Feng saw these comments, his heart was full of warmth.
Although the living conditions have improved, Shao Feng has not forgotten his original intention. He still maintains a diligent and hard-working attitude. Once on the set, the young actors were complaining that the weather was too hot, but Shao Feng was silent and filmed in heavy costumes.
After seeing it, the director said to the whole crew: "Learn from Mr. Shao Feng's professionalism."
Shao Feng's story is not only a history of struggle for an actor, but also a vivid portrayal of how an ordinary person persists in his dreams and guards love in the face of adversity. From obscurity to frequent visitors to the Spring Festival Gala, from selling houses and cars to living and working in peace and contentment, Shao Feng told us with his own experience: as long as we have hope, hard work and life will always surprise us.
Today's Shao Feng is still running for his dreams. He said: "There is no end to the profession of actor, I still have a lot of roles I want to play, and I still have a lot of goals I want to achieve.
"This former soldier of the cooking class used his life to interpret what persistence is and what responsibility is, and it also allows us to see the excitement of ordinary life.
