"The cool breeze has faith, the autumn moon is boundless, and the emotions of my thoughts are like living like a year."
Whenever you hear this familiar line, I believe that many people will appear in front of Zhang Weijian's figure, three points naughty three points of ridicule and four points of carelessness, Zhang Weijian with his own unique interpretation method, performed a different Wei Xiaobao.
More than 20 years have passed, Wei Xiaobao's lines are still familiar, but Zhang Weijian, who plays Wei Xiaobao, seems to have disappeared from the audience's field of vision, and only appeared in a small county town to receive commercial performances until last month.
Many netizens sighed, the childhood male god has actually fallen to this point, now 56-year-old Zhang Weijian, has few works, I don't know how many people remember, he once played those classic roles?
When he was young, Zhang Weijian used the term "prosperous beauty" to describe it as never too much, a lush black hair, a well-defined face, sword eyebrows like ink stains, eyes like cold stars.
It is such a prosperous beauty that makes 19-year-old Zhang Weijian stand out in the Hong Kong TVB Rookie Singing Competition and thus enter the show business circle.
Zhang Weijian, who debuted as a singer, did not embark on the road of becoming a popular singer as desired, but was forced to enter an acting career, playing a small role in Hong Kong TVB for eight years.
In 1992, Zhang Weijian played the male lead on the big screen for the first time, co-starring with Lin Zhiying and Zhang Min in the comedy film "Truancy", and since then he has opened his ups and downs of acting.
In 1993, Zhang Weijian starred in the movie "Super School Overlord", and a group of popular stars such as Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Aaron Kwok, Zheng Yijian, Ren Dahua, Qiu Shuzhen and so on matched him.
But only a year later, Zhang Weijian took too many scenes, the exposure rate was frequent, and the filming was a boring funny film, the momentum gradually slipped, and no one looked for him to shoot anymore.
In 1996, for Zhang Weijian, it was definitely a turning point in his life, he became popular because of the TVB version of "Journey to the West", but unfortunately, he did not have such a career in the sky for too long.
In 1997, TVB made a sequel to "Journey to the West", but suppressed Zhang Weijian's remuneration, and Zhang Weijian's request for additional remuneration was rejected, and he was blatantly humiliated by the producer:
"Don't think that you're amazing when you play a monkey, your popularity in the mainland is still zero!" You have no hair on your face, you are worthless! ”
To this end, the young and vigorous Zhang Weijian shaved his hair, in order to prove that he can play a role other than Sun Wukong, no hair can be very valuable, he left TVB and went to Beijing to re-work.
But it is not easy to talk about it from the beginning, Zhang Weijian fell into the underestimation of his career, fortunately, this trough period did not last long, in 1999, Zhang Weijian turned over because of the TV series "Young Hero Fang Shiyu".
In 2000, Zhang Weijian starred in the martial arts drama "Xiaobao and Kangxi" directed by Wang Jing, which achieved the second best rating when it was broadcast, and was also nominated for the 2001 Golden Bell Award for Best Actor with the drama.
In July 2001, Zhang Weijian and Li Bingbing starred in "Clever Little Don't Understand", which achieved good ratings in Shanghai, Jiangsu and Taiwan, and Zhang Weijian's bald head image also began to penetrate the hearts of the people at this time.
In 2002, Zhang Weijian cooperated with Li Bingbing again to co-starred in the costume martial arts drama "Young Zhang Sanfeng", setting a record for the highest ratings after "Clever Little Don't Understand".
In 2004, Zhang Weijian and Xie Tingfeng cooperated in the costume martial arts drama "Little Fish and Flowers", which exceeded 15.4% in the highest rating, becoming the highest-rated drama in recent years.
At this time, Zhang Weijian's popularity in the mainland has reached its peak, and he did not expect that there was an unexpected storm in the sky, and the knife of His agent's brother Zhang Weiyi almost ruined his acting career.
In 2006, his younger brother Zhang Weiyi was diagnosed with manic depression and had a great change in temperament, Zhang Weijian bought him a villa, gave him 30,000 yuan of living expenses every month, and let him recuperate.
Zhang Weiyi did not feel grateful to the eldest brother, but seized every opportunity to slander him, saying that Zhang Weijian cheated his company equity and commission, put himself under house arrest, and in order to attract the attention of the media, he also wronged Zhang Weijian for taking drugs.
The sewage poured by his brother broke Zhang Weijian's heart, and also seriously affected his work and future, and he had to issue a statement with his mother to prove his innocence, and his career has been in a slump since then.
For more than 10 years after that, Zhang Weijian could only make cameo appearances in the mainland in some small roles, such as Cheng Yaojin in "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties", Zhang Honglie in "The Legendary Female Soldier Platoon of Wutai Mountain Anti-Japanese Resistance", and Lu Zhu Weng in "Smiling Proud of the Rivers and Lakes".
Seeing this, many people may say that Zhang Weijian's "acting career" is also too ups and downs, but compared to his own life experience, it has been a lot smoother.
Zhang Weijian's childhood was soaked in tears, his father was grumpy, he scolded and beat people when he didn't agree, there were three boys in the family, Zhang Weijian was the eldest son, and he was hit with the most fists.
At the age of 15, Zhang Weijian's father cheated and absolutely left the family, Zhang Weijian was particularly happy in his heart, but without his father to support the family, the survival of mother and son became a problem.
The eldest son, Zhang Weijian, had to shoulder the burden of supporting his family, and he was forced to drop out of school, work two jobs a day to subsidize the family, work in magazines during the day, and sing in restaurants at night.
Zhang Weijian relied on part-time work, the eldest brother Zhang Weiyi to study in Canada, and the younger brother Zhang Weiji graduated to find a job, but he achieved nothing, fortunately, with a good voice in the singing competition to win the championship, stepped into the show business circle.
In the show business for nearly 10 years, Zhang Weijian has been running the dragon set, until Zhang Weiyi returned from Canada in 1991 as his agent, Zhang Weijian's acting career, finally on the right track.
With the classic roles of Monkey King, Fang Shiyu, Wei Xiaobao, Zhang Sanfeng, Xiaoyu'er and so on, Zhang Weijian has gained a firm foothold in the mainland and has also met a person who has been bound for a lifetime.
In 1997, Zhang Weijian and his wife Zhang Qian met during filming, and two years later, the two collaborated on the TV series "Xiaobao and Kangxi", and Zhang Weijian and Mu Jianping, the lord of Xiao County, played by Zhang Qian, came together because of the drama.
When he was ready to get married 2 years later, Zhang Weijian was facing bankruptcy due to the failure of speculation, and could only hold a simple wedding for Zhang Qian, even the wedding dress was a second-hand commodity, but Zhang Qian, who had a happy face, said that she did not mind.
3 years later, Zhang Qian became pregnant, but due to physical reasons, the child lost her heartbeat at 8 months, and Zhang Qian also suffered from depression, in order to help his wife get out of the haze, Zhang Weijian made up a grand wedding in the Philippines.
However, this million-dollar wedding also had an accident, there was no priest present, unable to read the oath, Zhang Weijian felt regretful, and then held the wedding two years later, giving Zhang Qian the most perfect promise under the witness of the priest.
I thought that Zhang Weijian's life would be complete, but I did not expect that tragedies would come one after another, my brother suffered from manic depression, his mother was seriously ill, his wife had a second miscarriage, and he was nearly 60 years old and childless.
In this life, Zhang Weijian has encountered all kinds of tragedies, but he is not pessimistic or decadent, but still strives to live until he is reconciled with all tragedies.
In the eyes of outsiders, Zhang Weijian is now a "past star", middle-aged and childless, but he lives very freely, he has been humiliated, hurt, red, and lonely in this life, but still deeply loved and happy.
