In 1998, a phenomenon-level costume drama adapted from Qiong Yao's novel" "Huan Zhu GeGe" turned out to be a phenomenon, and the ratings not only swept the country, but also looked at the Asian market as the first, and was also the drama with the highest replay rate, and the hit of this drama also successfully opened the idol era of domestic TV dramas.
In this drama, Ziwei, played by Lin Xinru, and Erkang, played by Zhou Jie, have also become the most tired on-screen couples in the audience's hearts, and the various love dialogues in the play make people feel numb.
Lyrics such as "Mountains have no edges, heaven and earth are united, only dare to be absolute with the king" and "You are the wind, I am sand" and other lyrics with the intimate drama of the two people, which makes people envious of this couple in the play.
However, the relationship between the two in reality has undergone a shocking reversal six years later, in 2004, when Lin Xinru was a guest on Taiwan's popular variety show "Kangxi Lai", under the questioning of the host, he said that during the filming of "Huan Zhu Gege", there was a fierce kiss scene, when Zhou Jie tried to kiss her with her tongue, she closed her teeth and did not let the other party succeed.
Because of this sentence, Zhou Jie was put on the hat of a lustful person, accused by many netizens, and his career fell into the bottom, and he once became popular and fell to the point where there was no drama to shoot.
After many years of retirement, Zhou Jie described in detail the situation of the kissing scene and clarified the facts, while Lin Xinru collapsed because of a birthday bombing, and public opinion turned to Lin Xinru one-sidedly, saying that she was deliberately framing Zhou Jie.
In fact, to restore the words that Lin Xinru said in the show, in fact, she did not have any malicious intentions, and Zhou Jie did not change his life all because of the influence of this sentence.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">01</h1>
Zhou Jie was born in 1970 in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, to a dual-career family, his parents were working in the railway system, his father was still a leader, and the family conditions were not bad at that time.
But because his parents were busy at work, and later gave birth to a younger brother, there was no time to take care of him, so when he was three or four years old, he followed his grandmother to live with his aunt in Shanghai.
My aunt's family lives in Tongxin Road, Hongkou District, Shanghai, the family conditions are relatively better, here, he can eat white rabbit milk candy every day, soy milk and white sugar soaked in fritters to eat is also a must-have breakfast, in that era are rare delicacies.
The Suzhou Creek and the Huangpu River also left a deep impression on his childhood memories.
After living in Shanghai for two years, his parents took him to the side and sent him to a nearby kindergarten, but he did not know the children when he first went to kindergarten, so he often rubbed the roots of the wall and sneaked home.
Once he got lost while walking, the teacher found out, launched the entire kindergarten teacher out to look for him, and finally found him at a crossroads, it turned out that he was seen by the traffic police uncle on duty, led him to the guard post.
After the teacher told the parents about this matter, his father locked him in the house and did not let him go out, it was really boring, he could only stare at the door slit every day after school, and saw a passing child saying a few words, and the lonely personality had begun to see the beginning of his childhood.
Once Zhou Jie stole a biscuit, his father asked him, he did not admit it, so he brought a bottle filled with soapy water for him to drink, meaning to wash his intestines, frightening Zhou Jie to quickly admit it.
From these two things, it can be seen that Zhou Jie's education since he was a child was very strict, of course, at that time, it was not popular to be pampered.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">02</h1>
After going to elementary school, Zhou Jie was still a mischievous child, so his parents also sent him to the martial arts school for training for a period of time, from primary school to middle school, he practiced "Tong Zi Gong" for a total of five years, because the practice met several young people in society, often went out to play together, so it affected the study, and his mother changed him to a number of schools in order to break off his relationship with these people.
Until high school, Zhou Jie stabilized, academic performance also began to gradually improve, a class to organize performance programs, usually there is no outstanding talent Zhou Jie was arranged by the literary and art committee to perform poetry recitation, originally just to make up a number, but did not expect that Zhou Jie's recitation was heard by a teacher, I felt that he spit clear words, the voice was loud and thick, praised him well, and suggested that he could make some efforts in broadcast hosting.
After Zhou Jie, who had never been praised by his teacher since he was a child, heard these words, his joy overflowed into words, and he liked to recite, study hard every day, and dreamed of becoming an announcer in the future.
During this period, Zhou Jie also liked the study committee member in the class, but did not dare to confess, because the study committee held the key to the class, so Zhou Jie was in a hurry to think of a way, every time after school was rubbing the last to go, until the study committee urged him to go, he dared to say a word to each other, but the two walked out of the campus together.
This hazy crush also accompanied through the high school era, when in Zhou Jie's heart this girl is a goddess-like existence, he does not know why he likes her, and when he becomes an adult, he turns out the old photos, and he can't feel her beauty.
After graduating from high school, Zhou Jie chose to apply for the broadcasting major of Beijing Broadcasting College, but because the results of the cultural class were too poor, he could not be admitted, and just when he was depressed, he learned from his classmates that he could also apply for art schools, and the requirements for cultural scores were not too high.
After a year of re-study, Zhou Jie was admitted to the Shanghai Theater Academy with excellent professional results, in fact, he could choose the Beijing Film Academy or the Central Academy of Drama, but because he had the experience of living in Shanghai as a child, he was full of feelings for the city of Shanghai, so he finally chose to play.
In 1989, Zhou Jie stepped into the door of the opera far away from home, where he became classmates with Wang Lin, Zhang Xilin, Hao Ping and Ren Chengwei.
It is said that at that time, Wang Lin was a "school flower" of that session because of her lively and cute appearance, and was admired by many male students, Zhou Jie was one of them, but Wang Lin liked the white and pure Ren Chengwei, after being rejected by Ren Chengwei, she was negatively thrown into the arms of Zhou Jie, so there was a blatantly intimate group photo on campus.
Originally, the two had the possibility of development, but Wang Lin was not cold to Zhou Jie, and a year later, Wang Lin chose to study at the Moscow State Film Academy, leaving Zhou Jie alone in the campus of the play in a daze.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">03</h1>
In 1991, Hong Kong director Kwan Kam Peng wanted to make a movie about the life of the famous actress Nguyen Ling Yu, and invited A-list stars such as Maggie Cheung, Qin Han, Leung Ka Fai, etc. During the filming in Shanghai, the crew went to the Drama Academy to select actors.
Frustrated in the love scene, Zhou Jie was selected in a vacuum, playing a small supporting role liu qiong in the film, although there was not much drama, but because the cooperation was a big coffee, it also laid the foundation for his future development in the film and television circle.
During college, in order to help the family reduce the burden, Zhou Jie often went out to find work in his spare time, because of the good language foundation, he went to the Shanghai Translation Studio to participate in the dubbing of the Japanese animation film "Ultraman", which was the first time that ultraman works were introduced to China, And Zhou Jie dubbed Ultraman, Monster and Captain Muramatsu respectively, showing his language talent.
After graduating from college, Zhou Jie was assigned to the National Drama Theatre, and finally got a fixed salary of a few hundred yuan per month, and his life improved a lot, in addition to rehearsing dramas every day in the drama theater, he would go out to take some plays or dubbing work in his spare time.
Among them, in the 90s, the light comedy "Sisters and Sisters Break into Beijing" that swept the country included Zhou Jie's voice, and he also starred in two TV series "Strange Coast" and "Woman at Home", which were broadcast on two TV stations.
It is precisely because of these two dramas that Zhou Jie was favored by He Xiuqiong, the daughter-in-law of Qiong Yao's aunt, and wanted him to participate in "Huan Zhu Gege", but because the male protagonist she said it did not count, so she sent her information to Taiwan to be personally determined by Qiong Yao.
At that time, when filming "Huan Zhu Gege", Qiong Yao originally wanted to use the Trio of the Little Tigers to play the male protagonist, but in the end only Invited Su Youpeng, when it seemed to be Zhou Jie's information, he felt good, so he decided to set him.
And Zhou Jie knew the name of Qiong Yao, did not think that such a new person as himself could be selected, because he could not wait for the news, he had promised to audition for the TV series "Hundred Years of Ups and Downs" crew, and after learning that he was selected by Qiong Yao, his heart was both excited and entangled, so he chose to play that play by tossing a coin, and the three coins were thrown down "Huan Zhu GeGe", perhaps this is Providence.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">04</h1>
In 1998, after the broadcast of "Huan Zhu Gege", zhou Jie also became a new generation of idol Xiaosheng with the Role of Erkang in the play, and many girls' Prince Charming, an 83-year-old old woman who saw Erkang on TV, also wrote a letter to Qiong Yao to express her admiration, saying that if there is an afterlife, she is willing to dedicate her first love to Erkang.
Qiong Yao said in her reply:
Although I created the character of Erkang, it was Zhou Jie who really gave him life.
Indeed, Zhou Jie interpreted Erkang's dashing, integrity, infatuation, thoughtfulness, gentleness and other such settings to the fullest, and such a perfect man probably only existed in Qiong Yao's novel.
After Zhou Jie quickly became popular, some negative news about him also poured in.
The first thing that broke out was that he often did not follow the script when shooting "Huan Zhu Gege", and the temporary change of lines happened from time to time, once the director asked him to read according to the original manuscript, he just did not agree, a shot was filmed more than twenty times, and finally Zhou Jie dropped the script and went away, so that the director and the crew had a great opinion on him, thinking that he was deliberately looking for stubble.
Finally called Qiong Yao for instructions, Qiong Yao after understanding the ins and outs of the matter, supported The idea of Zhou Jie changing his lines, it turned out that The meanings expressed by some words in Taiwanese and Mandarin were different, which was easy to cause misunderstanding, so Zhou Jie, who had a deep line skill, often put forward his own views in this regard, and Qiong Yao also felt that Zhou Jie's change was more appropriate after comparison.
Even so, Zhou Jie still apologized to the director at the request of Qiong Yao, and the matter was over.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">05</h1>
With the heat of "Huan Zhu Gege" and took over the second part, as the hottest TV series in Asia, Qiong Yao arranged for the crew to participate in various press conferences and variety shows, and also thought of making an album for The screen couple of Zhou Jie and Lin Xinru.
However, during a trip to Kaohsiung to publicize, Zhou Jie was exposed to escape from the battle, braved heavy rain and returned to Taipei in a taxi, and after moving to Hong Kong, boarded a flight to Kunming.
At that time, everyone thought that Zhou Jie and Qiong Yao had made a conflict and picked a fight, and when the media interviewed him, he only replied with one sentence:
If there is anything to ask Aunt Qiong Yao, don't ask me.
This response also made things more confusing, and they all thought that Zhou Jie was demonstrating to Qiong Yao without measuring his strength, and then he learned that this matter really misunderstood Zhou Jie.
Zhou Jie was in a hurry to return to the mainland, in fact, because he had a conflict with his girlfriend, and it turned out that Zhou Jie had met a local girl named Wu Zhen while he was in Shanghai.
Wu Zhen is young and beautiful, 8 years younger than Zhou Jie, and his dream is to become an actor.
He and Wu Zhen met in the stairwell, when Zhou Jie went upstairs to do things, in the corridor on the first floor saw Wu Zhen and his girlfriend sitting together chatting, Zhou Jie passed by and looked at the girl, this eye both sides had a strange feeling, Zhou Jie stared at the girl for a long time, his heart was pounding, thinking that he could have the opportunity to communicate with Wu Zhen, and when he went up to the third floor, Wu Zhen actually walked up, and the two sides left contact information for each other.
In this way, the two developed from friendship to love and began a romantic relationship.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">06</h1>
Wu Zhen gave up the opportunity to study at the Shanghai Theater Academy for Zhou Jie, followed him to Beijing away from home, and was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy after layers of selection, and will also take some plays in addition to his studies.
However, with the explosion of Zhou Jie,the number of foreign activities has increased, often not in Beijing, the opportunity for the two to meet is becoming less and less, and there are also problems with feelings.
Before going to Taiwan to promote, the two had an argument on the phone, Zhou Jie wanted to stay with his girlfriend, he also told Qiong Yao about his feelings, but because he was an absolute star, Qiong Yao did not agree to his great opportunity to give up publicity, and said to him:
Girls sometimes have to put it aside, when she has an opinion on you, you ignore her, let her calm herself down and think of your good.
Zhou Jie thought about this sentence, and felt that there was a certain truth, but before he went, he still called Wu Zhen and agreed on the phone that everything would be said after returning to Beijing.
However, after a few days of publicity in Taiwan, he did not wait for Wu Zhen's phone, Zhou Jie was a little ghostly, at that time he lived in Qiong Yao's home, one night Lin Xinru asked her to go out shopping for dinner, he was not in the mood to go, so he sat on the sofa and chatted with Qiong Yao, Qiong Yao also smiled and said to him:
Qin Han and Qin Xianglin both sat on this couch and talked to me about their feelings, and you were the third.
Talking about zhou jie suddenly wanted to smoke in the middle of the night, Qiong Yao also let her husband go out to buy a box, and Zhou Jie smoked it in one night.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">07</h1>
After talking with Qiong Yao, Zhou Jie did not untie the happy knot, on the bus to the publicity, because he did not rest well, Zhou Jie had symptoms of fever and diarrhea, and in the case of physical discomfort, he missed his girlfriend even more, and he thought about it and was tormented, and impulsively went to the leader of the crew, asked the driver to stop, and he wanted to return to Taipei.
At that time, the bus was driving in a deserted place, the leader did not agree, but Zhou Jie still had no hesitation to get off, so he called Qiong Yao, and finally Qiong Yao agreed, the car stopped in the middle of the road, Lin Xinru's assistant Xiao Juan accompanied him back to Taipei.
After arriving in Taipei at two o'clock in the morning, Qiong Yao asked her son to take Zhou Jie back home, and talked to him all night, telling him:
If you go back and you see her, and she hugs you and cries, then it's all over, and if you don't cry, then you fail.
The next morning, Qiong Yao arranged for her son to send Zhou Jie to the airport, so it is said that Qiong Yao knew that Zhou Jie left Taiwan because of emotional problems, and did not have a contradiction with Qiong Yao as reported by many media.
After arriving in Kunming, Zhou Jie only knew that his girlfriend was filming in Kunming, but he did not know the specific location, and the trustee inquired everywhere without success, and finally the clever idea appeared, thinking that his girlfriend had mentioned the matter of the normal school to him, so he called to inquire, and sure enough, there was a crew stationed here.
Zhou Jie bought 99 roses, and before he could bandage them, he hurried to the school with his hands in his hands, and the thorns of the roses were deeply rooted in his palms, oozing blood, but he did not feel any pain.
The moment he saw his girlfriend, Zhou Jie was ecstatic, hugged his girlfriend tightly and did not want to be separated, the girlfriend saw Zhou Jie falling from the sky full of blood, full of tears, and could not help but cry, the two got back together, and sure enough, as Qiong Yao expected.
Afterwards, Zhou Jie recalled that when he made such a crazy move, he actually did not think about what he had to save from his heart, but felt that he had to do something that others thought was impossible, in order to prove that he was a sincere man, even if he paid a huge price.
It doesn't matter if you like me or not, it doesn't matter if you follow me or not, but I have to let you know that I am good to you, this is the domineering love of men.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">08</h1>
After the relationship stabilized, Zhou Jie took over the role of "Young Bao Qingtian" and became the "first young student in the mainland", along with this title, the "six deadly sins" about him also roared out.
The crimes of asking for remuneration to gather people to beat people, bullying colleagues, being late for filming, changing the script without authorization, teaching old drama bones to act, and playing big names to strike were listed one by one by a certain media.
But Zhou Jie responded that in addition to taking people to ask for remuneration for the film because of the producer's salary arrears, the others were all made out of nothing, and the actors Li Bingbing and Zheng Peipei who had worked with her spoke for Zhou Jie, so that the incident calmed down.
After that, Zhou Jie successively filmed dramas such as "Huan Zhu Ge Ge III", "Plum Blossom Archive", "Legend of the Archery Hero", etc., but there were no more highlight moments, and it seemed that he was going to gradually disappear into the entertainment circle, and at this time, Lin Xinru's revelations made him angry again.
In the show, the host asked Lin Xinru, among the ten male stars who had filmed kiss scenes with her, how many had tried to open her teeth, Lin Xinru answered Erkang, and then laughed and said:
In fact, people don't deliberately want to top, but they are too devoted and love drama too much.
This sentence can be seen that Lin Xinru did not mean to frame Zhou Jie, only because her and Zhou Jie's couple drama is the most well-known to the audience, so for the effect of the show, Zhou Jie was taken out to say things, and he did not expect to bring so much harm to Zhou Jie.
Zhou Jie was criticized by netizens for this matter, saying that he was a lustful person, in fact, it was normal for the actor to shoot a kiss scene, kisses were kissed together, was the detail really so important?
What's more, filming in public, if Zhou Jie really had a bad move, why didn't anyone come out to say this in the first place?
So this incident did not have much impact on Zhou Jie's acting career, and in 2008, he also won the "Top Ten Favorite Stars of the Audience" at the 3rd China Television Audience Festival for his wonderful performance in "Harbin in the Night".
However, the next two things that happened made Zhou Jie's acting career fall to the bottom.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">09</h1>
One incident was that Zhou Jie was driving a vehicle in Beijing's 798 Art District and encountered a roadblock, and then clashed with the security guard, who was said to have gotten out of the car and hit one security guard, and forced the card to open the other two security guards.
There were many doubts in the investigation process of this matter, suspected that someone deliberately planned it, and then it was not resolved after mediation, and it happened before Zhou Jie won the award, and the impact on him was not too big.
However, not long after, Zhou Jie drove an unlicensed Mercedes-Benz car and collided with a taxi, and the traffic management department finally determined that Zhou Jie was mainly responsible for speeding and hit-and-run, and the taxi did not let the straight vehicle when turning, and was secondarily responsible.
The crash and escape incident coupled with the previous security incident pushed Zhou Jie to the cusp of the storm, in the face of overwhelming public opinion, Zhou Jie was anxious, and also tried to explain, but everything seemed pale and weak, helplessly can only choose to quit the entertainment circle, in fact, he did not want to retreat, it was after these things happened, no one dared to find him to shoot a drama.
It was not until many years later that Zhou Jie said that it was not the security guard who had clashed with him, and he did not escape after the crash, and he called the police at the first time and waited at the scene for 23 minutes before leaving.
In 2015, after Zhou Jie, who had retired for many years, stayed away from the disputes in the entertainment industry, he became a farmer, contracted thousands of acres of land in the northeast, and planted organic rice, which sold for up to 68 yuan a catty.
In addition, Zhou Jie has 3 film and television companies under his name, a winery in France, and two catering companies, and is said to have become a billionaire.
After having money, Zhou Jie has also been committed to charity, donating to Hope Primary School, donating money to disaster areas, donating rice to frontline workers in the fight against the epidemic, etc., which is more loving than some popular stars in the circle.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">10</h1>
Although Zhou Jie, who has a successful career, has not been rumored to be married, the girlfriend around him is no longer the Wu Zhen who once made him crazy, and the young and crazy love has finally passed away.
In 2013, Zhou Jie was photographed appearing at the Beijing airport with model official Xuewei, and the two behaved intimately, getting into a commercial car one after the other, and then entering Zhou Jie's villa area.
Guan Yuwei is a native of Jinzhou, Liaoning Province, graduated from the Xi'an Academy of Fine Arts, born in 1988, 18 years younger than Zhou Jie, tall and tall, fair-skinned, and has participated in model competitions many times.
In 2017, Zhou Jie was photographed walking with a mysterious woman, but the other party's appearance was not Guan Xuewei, nor was he an insider.
However, zhou jie who was photographed twice did not admit to the relationship, and after experiencing ups and downs, Zhou Jie has learned to keep a low profile.
In 2020, Zhou Jie and a mysterious woman wearing a red down jacket appeared in the hospital, accompanied by a child of about 5 years old, after the medical treatment was completed, Zhou Jie went to pay for the medical expenses, and then the three of them got into a luxury car together and left.
After the incident was exposed, everyone speculated that Zhou Jie was likely to have a secret marriage and a child, but out of concern for his family, he did not want to expose this matter, if this is the case, he sincerely wished that Zhou Jie already had a happy family, after all, the white-faced student who was once a white-faced student is now 51 years old.
Recently, Zhou Jie's mother died, he posted a long article on the public platform with deep feelings, pouring out his thoughts about his mother, when his father died 5 years ago, he could not see the last side of his father because of a business trip in other places.
A sentence in the text: "In the future, I will be the person whose parents died twice", which touched countless netizens.
"I sent my mother away and sent her to the No. 8 stove", saying that I had exhausted the sadness of losing my mother and caused countless netizens to cry.
The death of a loved one is the most painful thing in the world, but everyone has to face it.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > concluding remarks</h1>
Looking at Zhou Jie's reversed life, it can be clearly felt that he is an emotional and maverick person, not good at controlling his feelings, does not know how to be sleek in the world, and his temperament is easy to offend people but he is not self-aware, so there are those dark materials about him.
Fortunately, after fading out of the entertainment industry, he can be his true self, calm down to take care of his business, and let himself bloom on another stage.
Little vulgar rhyme, sex love Qiushan, may be a true portrayal of Zhou Jie, now he spends one-third of the year traveling, the rest of the time in various places, writing poetry, usually also like to photograph and collect, living into the envy of everyone.
Only after experiencing it can we grow, temper it to be strong, walk the road under our feet, and let go of the past, in order to live easily.
