<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="8">01</h1>
On January 6, 1988, Shi Xiaolong (formerly known as Chen Xiaolong) was born in Dengfeng, Henan Province, into a martial arts family, his grandfather was the martial arts master Chen Chengwen, and his father Chen Tongshan was also a martial arts master, known as the Eighteen King Kongs of Shaolin.
Born in such a family, Shi Xiaolong has been carrying all the unfulfilled wishes of the elders since he was a child, and it can be seen from the name that the dragon character symbolizes the king and will achieve great achievements.
Therefore, when Shi Xiaolong was 2 years old, he was sent to the Shaolin Temple by his father Chen Tongshan to learn martial arts, and he worshiped the abbot Shi Yongxin as a teacher and became his closed disciple.
Since then, Shi Xiaolong has not been accompanied by playmates and toys, but endless training.
In the eyes of his father, Chen Tongshan, his son is a natural martial arts wizard, and he has a concept, that is, "merit begins with a child, and a hero comes out of a teenager."
As long as you start from an early age and train strictly, you will definitely become a spokesperson for Shaolin martial arts in the future and break out of the world.
Therefore, Chen Tongshan hardened his heart, became a "wolf father", never felt sorry for his son, let him get up at 5 o'clock to practice, when splitting, Shi Xiaolong's legs were difficult to press down, and as a result, Chen Tongshan came up and directly pressed his son down, completely disregarding his son's pain.
If Shi Xiaolong had a movement that could not be done properly, Chen Tongshan would come up with a stick.
Because of his young age and his father's excessive strength, Shi Xiaolong has always been obedient and obedient.
Peers are happy under the care and love of their parents, carefree, and play with their friends, but Shi Xiaolong can only train day and night, and has no chance to touch toys.
His childhood was tragic, he did not feel happy at all, and he slowly lost the innocence that a child should have, and had more calm composure beyond his age.
Starlight does not ask passers-by, and the years pay off.
Talent and hard work, Shi Xiaolong mastered traditional kung fu such as Shaolin Tong Arm Fist, Drunken Sword, Drunken Fist, Shaolin Stick, and Wuxing Fist at a young age, and became the key training object of Shaolin Temple.

The following year, Shi Xiaolong participated in the Zhengzhou International Shaolin Martial Arts Festival, and won the unanimous praise of the judges and the audience for his solid martial arts skills and agile skills, and also won the excellent awards of shaolin tong arm fist and luohan stick.
In 1993, 5-year-old Shi Xiaolong was invited to participate in the "Spring Festival Children's Gala" of Henan Television Station, performing a martial arts program on stage, which was originally concerned by Taiwanese film and television companies, and after the star scout watched his performance, he was even more determined that his future was unlimited.

Soon, Taiwan's Changhong Film and Television Company signed a contract with Shi Xiaolong and began to train him as a child star.
In the same year, Shi Xiaolong's partners Lin Zhiying, Xu Ruoxuan and Hao Shaowen starred in the comedy movie "Laughing Forest Boy", in which he played the kung fu Shaolin boy Xiao Shami.
He partnered with Hao Shaowen for the first time, the two were cute and stupid, one moved and one quiet, one funny and one serious, which became the biggest attraction of the whole film and was loved by the majority of the audience.
The two are also known as the "Living Treasure Duo".
Seeing that The pair of Shi Xiaolong Hao Shaowen was so popular, the agency successively planned for them "Xiaolin Boy II. The New Oolong Courtyard", "Chinese Dragon", "Invincible Anti-Fighting Star", "Ten Brothers", "The Adventure of golden island", "The Legend of the Heavenly Garden" and many other comedy movies, which were unanimously praised by the outside world, and he and Hao Shaowen also became popular and became the hottest child stars in the 90s.
Their tacit cooperation has brought joy to many people, accompanied the growth of countless people, and become the best childhood memories of that era.
And the two of them almost became a box office guarantee, and their films would always be a big hit.
Behind the success is countless sweat.
The first time he filmed, Shi Xiaolong was tortured, because the role he played needed a lot of martial arts scenes, martial arts scenes could not be separated from the cornices, when shooting these shots, it was necessary to hang in mid-air to hang Weiya, at that time, Shi Xiaolong was only 5 years old, the mental endurance was not strong, although he began to learn martial arts at the age of 2, but he had not yet climbed to such a high height, hanging in mid-air He was directly scared to cry.
And his father, Chen Tongshan, was a martial arts instructor, but he did not feel sorry for his son at all, but shouted loudly at the scene: "Xiaolong don't cry, you are a man, you have to be strong." ”
Director Zhu Yanping couldn't see it, and directly refuted Chen Tongshan: "Only three years old, what a man, you let him down." ”
Shi Xiaolong was able to be put down to breathe slowly, but his father still did not forgive him, and questioned him in public, the young Shi Xiaolong did not know what he had done wrong, and he had to hold back tears to prevent it from falling.
The great success of "Laughing Forest Boy" made Chen Tongshan taste the sweetness, frantically took over the role for his son, and made 9 works in three years, and his childhood life has always revolved between filming and practicing.
At first, Shi Xiaolong did not like filming, and even a little annoyed, and repeatedly shed tears on the crew.
Once, he cried and wanted to go home, but his father Chen Tongshan resolutely disagreed, and also required him to shoot a movie, and specially formulated three iron rules for him: "You can't be late, you can't be lazy, you can't be spoiled." ”
Faced with his father's strict prohibition, he could only obey unconditionally.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="51">03</h1>
Subsequently, Shi Xiaolong successively filmed classic film and television dramas such as "Young Bao Qingtian", "Oolong Breaking Through love", "Nine-year-old County Taiye", "Young Huang Feihong", "Water Moon Cave Heaven", "The Legend of Xue Rengui" and other classic film and television dramas, and their popularity has continued to increase.
Chen Tongshan also did not forget to use his son's fame to make him the spokesperson of his martial arts school, and changed the name of the school from the Shaolin Temple Martial Arts School to "Shaolin Temple Shi Xiaolong Martial Arts Academy".
Since Shi Xiaolong became a spokesperson, many parents of Jackie Chan have sent their children to the Shaolin Temple Shi Xiaolong Martial Arts Academy to learn martial arts, hoping to one day become the second "Shi Xiaolong".
Just when his career was in full swing, Shi Xiaolong decided to temporarily quit the show business circle and calm his heart.
The 17-year-old Shi Xiaolong has grown up, he no longer wants to be controlled by his father, and his life is up to him.
He chose to go to the United States to study, and in the face of his son's choice, Chen Tongshan was not easy to stop, after all, the father-son relationship between the two was already very stiff.
It is precisely in the past two years that the entertainment industry has suddenly changed, ushered in a great baptism, the idol male god has become the object of the audience's pursuit, and the appearance is justice has become a major chaos in the entertainment industry.
Coupled with the increasing trend of young fans, a large number of traffic stars have been derived, they do not need to shoot dramas, let alone masterpieces, as long as they participate in variety shows, they can harvest super high traffic and countless topics by showing their faces.
After Shi Xiaolong returned to China, the audience's impression of him had faded, and his popularity was no longer what it was.
In 2009, Shi Xiaolong returned to the entertainment circle and filmed the TV series "The Biography of Bao Sangu", but the response was flat, and there was no half a wave.
In 2010, Shi Xiaolong participated in "Ip Man 2", playing Ip Man's apprentice Xu Shichang in the film, but after the film was released, he was unanimously criticized by the outside world.
He was ridiculed for his figure and was blessed, and when he grew up, his appearance changed greatly, and he did not have the cuteness and handsomeness of his youth.
Some netizens also rated him as "Top Ten Disabled Child Stars".
All this is just word of mouth, if you change the image, you can immediately save it.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="73">04</h1>
Later, during the filming of "The Legend of the KnifeMan", Shi Xiaolong met the singer He Jie, and the two fell in love because of the drama, and soon came together.
Although the two are very secretive about their love affair, they are still photographed by the vast media holding hands and shopping together, becoming a well-known couple.
But what people did not expect is that this relationship came and went quickly.
Not long after, He Jie publicly stated on the show that she was single, and also said that she wanted to find someone older than herself, knew how to take care of herself, and should be filial piety and have a good temper.
As soon as this word came out, it immediately caused a discussion among netizens, and many people speculated that He Jie was interpreting Xiaolong in connotation, saying that he did not know how to take care of girls and had a bad temper.
As we all know, Shi Xiaolong is 2 years younger than He Jie.
Since then, Shi Xiaolong's reputation has become worse and worse, and some people have even labeled him as a "scumbag".
However, what Shi Xiaolong did not expect was that his career not only did not improve, but also suffered heavy blows one after another.
In 2013, Shi Xiaolong participated in the recording of the variety show "China Star Jump", and also brought his assistant Peng Jiaxuan, but when recording the program, Peng Jiaxuan suddenly fell into the water, when Shi Xiaolong was training at the other end of the pool, the staff paid attention to the guests and did not notice Peng Jiaxuan.
After the discovery, Peng Jiaxuan could not be rescued.
The leak in the house was raining overnight, the assistant drowning incident had not completely subsided, and the martial arts school he represented had another big incident.
In 2019, there was a female student death at the Shaolin Xiaolong Martial Arts School.
It is understood that the deceased was only 7 years old, just 2 days after entering school, he encountered an accident, and his parents were devastated after learning about it.
After going to the hospital to see the last side of their daughter, the parents found that the daughter had multiple bruises on her body, suspecting that it was caused by being beaten.
Later, after investigating the surveillance video at the scene of the incident, the police could not determine whether the girl was beaten before she died, and also ruled out that he was killed.
But the truth of the matter has never been cracked, and in desperation, the girl's parents can only reach a reconciliation with the school, and the matter is over.
As a spokesman, Shi Xiaolong has become the object of external bombardment, his career has suffered a heavy blow, and he has gradually faded out of the public's vision.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="96">05</h1>
Forced to do so, Shi Xiaolong had to go from the front of the stage to the backstage, from an actor to an action director.
His latest film, "The Chinese Doctor," is only 10 seconds long and wears a mask that many viewers don't recognize.
Although acting did not surpass the achievements of youth, Keshi Xiaolong's life was still flavorful, and he was often photographed driving a million luxury cars.
In fact, the reason why Shi Xiaolong has not been able to turn red again, in addition to the change of appearance, the feelings are criticized, and he is pit by his father, there is also an important problem, that is, acting.
Watching many of the roles played by Shi Xiaolong, the performance is somewhat stiff, there are shortcomings in acting skills, and there is a lack of psychological grasp and emotional speculation of the role, so it is always impossible to leave a deep impression on the audience.
Of course, Shi Xiaolong is only 34 years old now, and there are still many opportunities and time.
If he can precipitate himself, constantly polish his acting skills, and make his performance have a deeper level, it is not difficult to become popular again.
The so-called Cheng ye Xiao He defeated Xiao He, And Shi Xiaolong was able to get to where he is today, thanks to the help of "Wolf Father" Chen Tongshan.
Unfortunately, for his own interests, Chen Tongshan also fiercely pit his son and pushed him into the abyss.
