On November 5th, some media released a video of the old actor Zhang Shaohua's snail house, which welcomed hundreds of thousands of netizens to watch and like. Suddenly, the "ugly lady" Zhang Shaohua's later life situation attracted people's attention.
From the video footage, the 83-year-old Zhang Shaohua lives in a simple and poor place, her own clothing is also very simple and simple, and the whole person is skinny and scary. It is understood that at present, Zhang Shaohua himself lives alone in a house of more than forty square meters, unaccompanied around him, and has a bit of a desolate taste of the evening scene.
In 2008, Zhang Shaohua, who was 71 years old, played the classic mother role of Mu into three points with a play of "My Ugly Lady", and she also took her career to a higher level and got more opportunities to perform. Since then, the word "ugly lady" has become synonymous with Zhang Shaohua.
Although she has been playing supporting roles since she entered the industry, Zhang Shaohua, who has a small body, is not beautiful or even a little ugly, but in the past few decades, she has relied on the tempering of small supporting roles, and has become an old drama bone in the show business circle with her acting skills, and has been respected by many young actors who have cooperated.
However, after a successful career, Zhang Shaohua's family life was not so happy.
Born in a poor family, Zhang Shaohua did not have enough to eat since she was a child, and later relied on her own efforts to get the opportunity to perform in the drama critics, and she cherished such work very much. To this end, Zhang Shaohua runs outside all day and rarely returns home.
Even after giving birth to a son with her husband Zhang Huibao, Zhang Shaohua still should not be busy, and just a few months after her son was born, she handed the child over to her mother to take care of and went out to work by herself. Except for the occasional time to meet with his children on weekends, Zhang Shaohua has almost no chance to get close to his son.
It wasn't until 14 years later that Zhang Shaohua and her husband took their son back to live together, but she found that it was too late. Because they had not lived together for too long, the son did not have much affection for the two of them, nor did he want to talk to them, and the two sides were like familiar strangers.
This estranged relationship has not changed over time, and until now, Zhang Shaohua's son has not lived with her or paid for any improvement in her life for this mother. Before Zhang Shaohua was sick and hospitalized, the video of her lying on the hospital bed was exposed on the Internet, and the whole person looked yellow and thin, and his son did not show up to accompany his mother.
On the contrary, in order to make up for the lack of maternal love for his son, Zhang Shaohua gave the money earned from filming in these years to his son, to buy a house to marry his daughter-in-law, so it seems that this son has a bit of a feeling of nibbling on the old. But all she did did not seem to get positive feedback from her son.
What is unexpected is that Yang Zhigang, an actor who has worked with Zhang Shaohua, saw that his mother was so bitter, and once proposed to change her house, but he did not cash in under Zhang Shaohua's refusal.
In addition to family life, Zhang Shaohua's past is also controversial.
In 2017, the painter Wu Huan accused Zhang Shaohua of copying her home and causing Xin Fengxia to be disabled, which made her reputation fall to the bottom. At that time, many people began to attack Zhang Shaohua's appearance, saying that she "looks ugly, even if she is ugly inside." Others say she's been silent about it before, deceiving the audience for 54 years, which is too much.
However, for this matter, Zhang Shaohua has always not thought that he did it himself, and has also issued a document clarifying that the other party died of illness and had nothing to do with himself. But all explanations have no help, network public opinion has been biased to the other side, and Zhang Shaohua can no longer reverse his reputation.
Affected by this, Zhang Shaohua's plays in recent years have become less and less, and they are no longer as sought after as before.
Over the years, Zhang Shaohua has not had a team and agent, and the drama is followed by fate, and when there is a play, he will rest without a play. Now affected by word of mouth, there is no income without filming, and I don't know if her son's house debt has been paid off? If one day her earning power is lost, I wonder if her son will leave her alone?
At the age of 83, if it were not for the compulsion, who wouldn't want to live at home and enjoy the joys of life?
