In 2002, a book called "Tongali Body Art Photo" exploded like a bomb in the cultural circle.
This once unknown dancer became popular overnight and became a hot topic on the streets.
But there is no such thing as a free lunch, and Tongali soon tasted the bitter fruits of fame: family conflicts erupted, her marriage was in jeopardy, and her career suffered a cold winter.
In the face of all this, she stubbornly said: "I don't regret it." "
What is it that makes her so determined?
What is the untold story behind this "mannequin"?
Let's rewind the heat of the summer of 1976 and see how the future "mannequin" began her artistic journey.
That year, Hefei, Anhui Province ushered in a little cutie, who was our protagonist Tongali.
Who would have thought that this good girl, who grew up in a military family, would one day become the center of national attention?
Tongali has been a nimble elf since she was a child, and her movements are as graceful as a little fairy.
At the age of 9, she stepped into the door of a dance school and began her artistic journey.
You know, in those days, it was a great thing to be able to go to dance school!
Little Tongali is simply a treasure girl, not only dancing well, but also winning gold medals in gymnastics, which is simply both civil and military!
After graduating from high school, Tongali got her wish and was admitted to the dance major of Anhui Provincial Art School.
This girl is really restless, she joined the provincial song and dance troupe after graduation, and became a special guest actor on the provincial TV station!
But Tongali was not satisfied, her eyes flashed with a desire for a higher temple of art.
So our dance genius resolutely went north to pursue his dream and was admitted to the classical dance major of Beijing Dance Academy.
Here she is like a fish in water, hungry and thirsty for the nourishment of art.
After graduating, Tongali soared to the sky and joined the top oriental song and dance troupe in China.
In the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, Tongali's dancing posture is as beautiful as a fluttering butterfly, which makes people shine.
The works she participated in such works as "Terracotta Warriors" and "Tang Guifei" made the audience feel as if they had traveled back to the Tang Dynasty.
Tongali's dance career seems to have reached a small peak, but deep down she has a new desire.
She began to think: as a dancer, beautiful appearance will eventually grow old, but exquisite skills can maintain youth forever.
So while studying at the Beijing Dance Academy, she quietly applied for the Beijing Film Academy, wanting to show her skills in the film and television industry.
This decision undoubtedly laid the groundwork for her later life trajectory.
In 1999, Tongali finally ushered in her screen debut, playing a tragic role in the costume drama "Dragon and Phoenix Wisdom Fighting Panlongfang" from a noble lady to a member of the beggar gang.
Although it was only a small role, Tongali's performance left a deep impression on the audience.
The following year, she played an impressive role in the classic play "Kangxi Dynasty" - Ziyun, a woman in the Qinglou.
The role of Ziyun is not simple, she is a ruthless undercover killer, but in getting along with Emperor Kangxi, she is moved by sincere feelings.
Tongali vividly interprets Ziyun's complex psychology, which makes people feel distressed and moved.
In this way, Tongali gradually gained a firm foothold in the film and television industry, and participated in many costume dramas one after another.
Although most of them are supporting roles, she plays each role gently and virtuously, and understands righteousness, which is unforgettable.
Seeing this, you may think that Tongali's life is simply an open mode.
But there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have fortunes and misfortunes, who would have thought that an unexpected opportunity would make her life trajectory change so dramatically?
Just when Tongali's acting career is booming, the gears of fate are quietly turning, and an unexpected love story is about to be staged.
In 2002, 18-year-old Tongali was a sophomore at Peking University, and she was a beautiful scenery on campus.
By chance, she came to the film studio for an interview, but who knew that she met her "destiny" this time.
Shen Dong, a well-known director who is filming a MV for Su Hong, was attracted by Tongali's youthful vitality at a glance.
You must know that Shen Dong is a big bull in the circle, he has directed popular films such as "On the Taihang Mountain" and "Shocking", and is a talented director and screenwriter.
The first time the talented director saw Tongali, it was as if he had been shot in the heart by Cupid's arrow.
Shen Dong began to create frequent opportunities and got to know Tongali through his work.
The two quickly fell in love and staged a realistic version of the romantic story between the director and the heroine.
Shen Dong is so fond of Tongali that he even gave her the latest pager and set a code that only two people understand.
"777" stands for "I love you", and "888" means "I miss you", this kind of youthful little fun makes people can't help but smile.
Once Shen Dong sent Tongali back to school, and saw oranges on the way, so he bought a big bag without saying a word.
Unexpectedly, the train started suddenly, and Shen Dong threw the whole bag of oranges to Tongali in a hurry.
As a result, it can be imagined that the oranges were scattered on the ground and trampled by passers-by.
But Shen Dong didn't give up, he quickly picked up three intact oranges and rushed to stuff them into Tongali's hands.
This seemingly insignificant detail touched Tongali's heart deeply.
In this way, the relationship between the two heated up day by day, and finally entered the palace of marriage hand in hand.
However, the sweetness of love did not stop Tongali from pursuing her career.
After marriage, she still actively participated in the filming of film and television dramas, and also got involved in the field of advertising.
In the summer of 2001, by chance, Tongali received an invitation for an underwear advertisement.
At first, she was a little hesitant, after all, shooting underwear advertisements was a big challenge for her at that time.
But with the mindset of trying something new, Tongali finally accepted the offer.
Who would have thought that this decision would become a turning point in her life.
During the filming, Tongali's performance amazed everyone present.
The photographer and staff were full of praise for her and even came up with the idea of taking a photoshoot.
Tongali agreed to this proposal without much thought.
After taking the photo, the website said that these photos have high artistic value and hope to keep them and recommend them to art magazines.
Tongali felt that this was a good opportunity and signed the contract happily.
However, she never expected that this contract would become the fuse of future turmoil.
The website smelled a business opportunity and decided to follow the practice of Hong Kong and Taiwan actresses and make Tongali's photos into a photo album for publication.
When Tongali learned the news, she was both excited and apprehensive.
She began to worry about which photos the other party would choose, and would it be too bold?
At the suggestion of a friend, she decided to take the initiative and take a set of photos before the other party officially published it.
After careful consideration, Tongali chose the People's Fine Arts Publishing House as a partner.
However, when she told her husband Shen Dong about this decision, she was met with strong opposition.
Shen Dong worries that this will have a negative impact on Tongali's image and career.
But seeing his wife's firm eyes, Shen Dong finally chose to support.
He personally went to the filming site to make sure everything was under control.
In this way, the filming of "Tongali Body Art Photo" officially began.
At this time, Tongali and Shen Dong didn't realize what earth-shaking changes this photo album would bring to their lives.
In September 2002, "Tongali Body Art Photo" exploded in the cultural circle like a bombshell.
As soon as this photo book was released, it immediately caused an uproar, and the first printing of 15,000 copies was sold out in a blink of an eye.
You must know that in that era, a photo album of this scale was an unprecedented "heavy taste"!
Tongali's name instantly became a popular keyword in major search engines, even surpassing many popular stars.
Netizens exclaimed: "This is not the gentle and lovely Tongali we know, right?" "
For a while, Tongali became a hot topic on the streets, and everyone's evaluation of her was mixed.
Some people praised her courage to show the beauty of the human body, praising it as an artistic breakthrough and innovation.
Some people scoffed at her behavior, believing that it was sensationalizing and immoral.
What's more, Tongali was directly labeled as "indecent".
In the face of overwhelming doubts and criticism, Tongali felt unprecedented pressure.
She once thought that she was just pursuing art, but she did not expect to cause such a huge controversy.
Every day when I open newspapers and magazines and see all kinds of comments about myself, Tongali feels both excited and apprehensive.
However, the price of fame is far more heavy than she thinks.
The most heart-wrenching thing for Tongali was that her father was furious when he learned the news.
The father who used to love him so much, now he doesn't even want to answer the phone.
As a retired military officer, the father could not accept his daughter as a "mannequin".
Every time Tongali called home, her father hung up as soon as he heard her voice, which made Tongali's heart cut like a knife.
Family relationships are at a freezing point, and Tongali feels lonely and helpless like never before.
She once tried to explain to her father that it was just an artistic expression, but he didn't listen to him.
In the eyes of the father, his daughter's behavior is simply challenging his bottom line and making him embarrassed.
At the same time, Tongali's marriage was also severely tested.
Although Shen Dong initially supported his wife's decision, the huge impact of the photo album exceeded his expectations.
Whenever he walks down the street and hears passers-by talking about his wife, the torment in his heart can be imagined.
Shen Dong began to question whether he had made the right decision, and there was less and less communication between him and Tongali.
The atmosphere between the two is becoming more and more awkward, and the once sweet love cottage is now filled with silence.
Not only that, Tongali's career has also been hit hard.
Some directors and producers began to shy away from her, fearing that working with her would have a negative impact on the work.
The former good sisters have also distanced themselves from her, for fear of being labeled as "improper".
Tongali felt as if she had become an isolated "other" overnight, and the glory of the past seemed to be a lifetime of her life.
However, it was at this moment that an unexpected opportunity came.
The director of "Huanzhu Gege Part III" took a fancy to Tongali's temperament and invited her to play Zhiqin, Zhihua's sister.
Although this character is not the protagonist, it was undoubtedly an opportunity for Tongali at that time to prove herself again.
Tongali seized the opportunity to devote herself to the role, hoping to use her acting skills to change everyone's perception of her.
Her seriousness and dedication on the set made all the staff look up to her.
Slowly, some people began to re-examine Tongali, thinking that she was not just a "mannequin", but also a powerful actor.
However, despite the turn of her career, Tongali's heart is still full of contradictions and struggles.
She began to reflect on her choice, was it worth paying such a huge price?
In the face of family incomprehension, marital crisis, and career setbacks, where should Tongali go?
In the face of the pressure of the mountain, I might have hid in the woods and cried, but Tongali chose to rise to the challenge.
She is like an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, insisting that shooting a photo album is an important step in her artistic career.
In her view, this is not only a way to show beauty, but also a sincere exploration of the beauty of the human body.
Tongali's stubbornness has come up, who said that girls can't boldly pursue their artistic ideals?
After a half-year-long family "cold war", Tongali finally waited for a turnaround.
With the mediation of relatives and friends, she and her father reconciled, and this father-daughter "world war" finally came to an end.
Although my father still had an expression of "I'm upset but I put up with it", the family affection that blood is thicker than water finally prevailed over the differences.
Imagine that when Tongali shouted "Daddy" again, the once hard as iron military father must have moistened the corners of his eyes.
However, God seems to think that Tongali's life is not exciting enough, and arranges a "marriage defense war" for her.
March 17, 2008, which was supposed to be a hopeful spring, became the "cold winter" of Tongali's marriage.
She and Shen Dong officially divorced, and the once sweet love fairy tale came to an end.
Although Tongali categorically denied that the divorce was related to the photo album, anyone could see that this marriage was finally crushed by the photo turmoil.
Think about the two people who loved each other sweetly at the beginning, but now they have to sign the divorce agreement, this feeling is probably only experienced by those who have experienced it, right?
But our Tongali is not the kind of rookie who gets knocked down by setbacks.
She is like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, and after going through so many ups and downs, she has become stronger.
Tongali re-devotes herself to acting, as if she wants to turn all the unhappiness into motivation for work.
She has participated in well-known TV series such as "Huanzhu Gege Part III" and "Seven Fairies of Joy", and won the love of the audience again.
Looking at the radiant Tongali on the screen, who would have thought that she had experienced such a big turmoil?
Looking back, Tongali's eyes shone with determination.
She said frankly: "I don't regret shooting a photo album, it was the best memorial of my youth." "
How much grievance and unwillingness are contained in this sentence, and how much stubbornness and self-confidence, I am afraid that only Tongali herself knows best.
Tongali's story teaches us that there are always choices along the way in life, and some choices can present unexpected challenges.
But as long as you stick to your original intention, you can find your own light.
She used her own experience to explain what it means to "see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain".
In fact, if you think about it, isn't the experience of coming to Tongali a microcosm of each of our lives?
We are all pursuing our dreams, and we all encounter frustration and incomprehension.
The key is how do we face these challenges, do we choose to back down or move forward?
As Tongali's story continues, we have to ask: how do we balance art and secularity, between personal pursuit and social identity?
This is perhaps a question that every dreamer needs to think about.
But one thing is certain, and that is that whatever you choose, have a clear conscience, as Tongali said: "I have no regrets!" "
