"When I was young, there was a girl who loved me and I thought I loved her too. After seeing another woman, I realized that this is love.
Seeing her blood boiling every day, I love her, I can abandon fame and fortune for her, I can die for her, and I can ruin all my future for her. ”
This touching-sounding love story is Jet Li's sigh after he first met Li Zhi!
When it comes to Li Zhi, the first picture that comes into people's minds is: 36D hot figure, followed by praise: What a special thing in the world!
And this special object that made countless people think of it was finally touched by Jet Li's defiance.
At the same time that Li Zhi accepted Jet Li, he also put forward a request: get married again in ten years!
Why did Lee Chi make such a request? Perhaps it all comes down to her experience.
His parents divorced and rebelled
In the mid-1960s, Li Zhi was born in Shanghai to a music teacher and a mother to a stage actor.
At the age of three, his parents divorced because of personality incompatibility. Since then, she has moved to Xi'an with her father.
Although the parents are separated, the artistic cells of the parents have been deeply educated by Li Zhi.
Seven or eight-year-old Xiao Lizhi has grown up to be skinny and cute, and the male classmates in the class always deliberately bully her.
Later, the students learned about the divorce of Li Zhi's parents. She suddenly became the object of ridicule by her classmates.
The departure of his mother and the ridicule of his classmates made Li Zhi sullen and unhappy.
Coupled with the fact that her father married a new couple, her stepmother was mean and cold to her, so Li Zhi became "rebellious".
When he was seven or eight years old, Li Zhi once ran away from home alone along the train line, from Xi'an to Guangzhou, from Guangzhou to Jiangsu, and from Jiangsu to Qingdao...
During the period of hunger and sleepiness, I went to a nearby person's house, a little girl, with a sweet mouth, so eating and living is not a problem at all.
In the mid-1970s, my father moved to Hong Kong to earn a living.
When he first arrived in Hong Kong, life was difficult, and his father was simply unable to raise Li Zhi.
As a result, Li Zhi was sent back to Shanghai, and since then she has begun to live with her grandmother.
In the days without their fathers, Li Zhi and his grandmother often lived a difficult life.
What's harder is that she has no friends and no family, and loneliness has always surrounded Li Zhi. For many years in Shanghai, she was not happy at all, so she created a lonely and non-talkative personality.
Leave your first love and run to Hong Kong
But the appearance of a person made Li Zhi's lonely heart ripple.
Seventeen or eighteen years old, it is the jade age, Li Zhi out of the pavilion, beautiful and moving, which makes her everywhere she goes is the focus.
Once when he went to the library, Li Zhi met a teenager, and the teenager's care for her made Li Zhi feel warm.
People who are very bitter in their hearts, enjoying a little sweetness is enough to be very happy.
They soon fell in love.
In 1981, her father's career was booming, and he was able to bring her to Live in Hong Kong.
Although Li Zhi is very reluctant to her lover, she wants to see the place of her dreams that she has longed for for a long time.
But when it really came to Hong Kong, the huge gap between reality and imagination made Li Zhi feel confused.
Hong Kong is an international metropolis, and handsome men and women on the streets travel back and forth wearing flared pants and low-cut suits.
Modernity and foreign atmosphere are synonymous with this city.
Li Zhi, who prides himself on his good looks and hot body, has been ridiculed by Hong Kong people as "rustic in the soil".
This kind of discrimination made her incompatible with the city, so in countless lonely nights, she was crazy to miss the teenagers on the Whampoa River, and the other party's letters became Li Zhi's only hope and comfort.
And the correspondence did not expect to bring misfortune.
The boy's father was a senior staff officer in the East China Sea Fleet Operations Division, and the teenager's frequent letters were sent to Hong Kong, which attracted the attention of the security department, and the boy's father was soon interviewed by the chief.
At that time, it was a politically sensitive period, Hong Kong and the mainland close exchanges, it is easy to attract the attention of people with hearts, in order not to involve his father, the teenager chose to break up with Li Zhi, the relationship between the two ended.
The departure of her mother, the abandonment of her father's remarriage, and the determination of her first love boyfriend... All of them have created a prudent approach to feelings.
Recognize the reality and study in the United States
Since there was no feeling, Li Zhi had to pay attention to work, because she did not have academic qualifications and any skills, many companies rejected her, and finally had to become a shopping mall salesman.
At that time, it was the era of the rise of the film, and the performance cells flowing in the Lizhi gene were eager to move, so she ran to the newly established "New Art City Pictures" to interview actors.
When Li Zhi went, she was carefully dressed up and dressed in the fashion of Shanghai, but unexpectedly, she was turned away for a very direct reason: the temperament dress was too earthy!
Reality is like a basin of cold water poured from beginning to end, how much hope Li Zhi had when he came to Hong Kong, and how strong the frustration was now.
After experiencing setbacks in the workplace, Li Zhi deeply realized his shortcomings. After much deliberation, she proposed to her father to study abroad.
Some people say that Li Zhi is the kind of person who knows how to change himself at the right time and thus change his destiny.
Indeed it is.
In 1983, Lee Chi returned to Shanghai and, after three months of intensive English, returned to Hong Kong to take the TOEFL test. After that, he went to the University of San Francisco and began a three-year business economics.
This year, Li Zhi was 22 years old.
In the same year, He Hongshen, the gambling king who had passed the age of flower armor, was making a big fuss about marrying the third aunt.
At the same time, 20-year-old Jet Li has become popular all over the country with "Shaolin Temple".
What Li Zhi did not expect was that her next fate would be inseparable from these two men.
Return to China and step into the film world
Li Zhi has been abroad for three years, in addition to studying coursework, foreigners' views and dresses on fashion have been mastered by her, and she has achieved a rebirth from the inside out.
In 1986, Li Zhi returned to Hong Kong and stepped into this land again, and she has changed from the original "mainland girl" to a "foreign girl" in line with fashion.
In the same year, Li Zhi participated in the "Miss Asia" contest. As soon as he took the stage, he surprised all the judges with his proud uprightness and stunning beauty.
After that, all kinds of public opinion came around Li Zhi, and even Ni Kuang, who had seen countless beautiful women, said: If Li Zhi did not win the award, he would burn the TV station!
In anticipation, Li Zhi not only won the championship in one fell swoop, but also won the "Miss Peace", "Best Photogenic Miss" and "Best National Costume" awards, and the honor caused a sensation throughout Asia.
Subsequently, Li Zhi officially entered the entertainment circle.
Li Zhi's first play was Ni Kuang's adaptation of the novel "Yuan Zhenxia and Wesley".
Li Zhi was not only hand-picked by Ni Kuang, but also played with her by a number of big names: Chow Yun Fat, Maggie Cheung, Er Dongsheng, etc... It is a pity that the film was broadcast and the response was flat.
Immediately after Li Zhi and Zhou Runfa starred in "Tiger Out of the Change", this time it was a vacuum.
Later, she starred in more than 30 movies such as "Extramarital Affair", "Warblers Dancing" and "Double Dragon Society", but most of them either played the vase or showed off the wind, and the close-ups given to her by the camera were either "wet body", or "throwing breasts" and "buttocks".
Gradually, Li Zhi wanted to change the connotative drama path, but found that no director bought it, and people only saw her sexiness.
So Li Zhi began to contact business in addition to filming.
At first, she and her father did the textile business together and earned the first pot of gold, so she entered the real estate industry again, and she made a lot of money.
Step into the business world and meet the gambling king
Then a man appeared in her life.
One day in 1986, Lee Chi went to a cocktail party, and the bright and windy Lee Chi swayed on the dance floor, and within a few minutes, he aroused the love of a man.
This man is the Hong Kong gambling king Ho Hung-sun, dancing is a big hobby of the gambling king, he especially likes women who dance beautifully, he and his second wife are related to dancing.
Soon, Ho Hongshen broke through the fortress of Lizhi Gentle Township, and then took Lizhi to various occasions.
In the same year, not long before getting to know Li Zhi, Ho Hung-sun met Liang Anqi, a girl from Guangzhou, at a dance party. Since then, Liang Anqi and Li Zhi have become Ho Hongshen's regular dance partners.
At that time, He Hongshen had just married the third wife, so the outside world believed that Li Zhi or Liang Anqi would be the candidate for the fourth wife of the gambling king.
Because Liang Anqi refused Ho's monthly living expenses and wanted to join the mall, she was arranged to work as a clerk in the accounting room of the Ho family casino and opened a dance academy.
Lee Chi continued to accompany Ho to various public events.
In 1989, Liang Anqi officially became the "fourth wife", while Li Zhi was declared a "friend" by Ho Hongshen.
Also in this year, Li Zhi, who was still entangled with the gambling king, met another man.
When we first met, I was thrilled
In 1989, Jet Li, who was not developing smoothly in the United States, was invited by The Hong Kong kung fu film tycoon Luo Wei to star in "The Dragon at the End of the World".
Jet Li returned to Hong Kong from the United States, and the 26-year-old Jet Li saw the 28-year-old Li Zhi and was thrilled at a glance.
As soon as the golden wind and jade dew met, they won countless victories in the world.
A day is not seen, and the thought is crazy.
Jet Li thought in his heart, this is the real love! I have never felt this way about my wife, and I am afraid that this marriage will come to an end.
At this time, it was the time when Jet Li was at its lowest point, and Li Zhi was just the opposite.
Jet Li, who was very depressed, was greatly comforted by Li Zhi's understanding and gentle explanation.
Later, Jet Li once recalled in the program: "She understood the melancholy in my heart, the determination to struggle, and even the mood of not meeting talents, she simply knew me better than my mother and sister." ”
Sure enough, Jet Li soon fell into the charm of Li Zhi. He changed the dullness of the past, holding a rose in his hand, sitting on the only way home for Li Zhi, and as a result, he waited for 7 hours, and the goddess actually took another way home.
The waiting of this time also calmed Jet Li's manic heart. Although the goddess is good, but she already has a family, how should she live with herself?
Soon he found that it was not easy to chase the goddess, not only fierce competition, but also extraordinary origins: there were Xiangjiang talents, there were super rich, and then to the big brothers in the show business circle...
Jet Li is such a small role, except for a kung fu, there is no competitiveness.
In the midst of sorrow, things took a turn for the better.
Hunt down and kill, abandon the rich and choose the wide
During this period, the gambling king still loved Li Zhi and wanted to accept her as the fifth wife, and gave a villa worth 200 million yuan to Li Zhi.
Since the ancient giants of the inner courtyard of the wind and clouds, once into the giants as deep as the sea.
As soon as Ke Lizhi's foot hit the threshold, the hunting order had already taken the opportunity.
According to anecdotal rumors, the existence of Li Zhi strongly threatens the existence of the other four rooms. They thought: If Li Zhi marries in, he will definitely take away all the glory and favor, and the family property will also be divided, which is extremely unfavorable to any calculation.
So the four-room wife, who is usually not very harmonious, united and unanimous to the outside world. They found some social people to issue a "jianghu hunting order" to Li Zhi.
In the end, the gambling king mediated from it, and The wisdom of the gambler was saved, at the cost of completely severing relations with the gambling king and never being able to appear in Hong Kong and Macao.
The terrified Li Zhi understood that choosing the other half still had to be reliable. So she chose the honest Jet Li among many suitors.
This made Jet Li overjoyed, and he immediately made a vow: "From now on, every penny I earn will be given to you!" ”
In 1991, Jet Li couldn't wait to file for divorce from his wife, Huang Qiuyan.
At that time, it was Huang Qiuyan's second pregnancy, which was difficult for her to accept, but after calm thinking, she knew that the feelings could not be forced, and then the two divorced.
Because of the guilt, Jet Li left the house, leaving all the property to Huang Qiuyan and her two daughters, and promised to raise the children.
Finally, he could walk with Li Zhi without any scruples. But the previous experience made Li Zhi put forward a condition: only love, not marriage, if you still love me after ten years, then talk about marriage.
Shadow is in debt, and her boyfriend sells himself
In 1992, at the age of 31, Li Zhi announced his retirement from show business.
In the most charming years, he chose to retire, such a move made the industry greatly puzzled, and also made countless audiences sigh.
After the film, Li Zhi invested more energy in the commercial sea. In a real estate investment, a large-scale operation of a coastal villa project, but unexpectedly because of the economic bubble to make the investment into a bubble, but also owed tens of millions of huge debts.
The misfortune is not only that Jet Li also suffered misfortune.
After jet Li and the owner Jiahe's contract expired, he was refused to pay the balance because he did not shoot the number of films specified in the contract.
In order to protest, Jet Li boycotted "Huang Feihong's Boy Should Strengthen Himself", which had been filmed halfway, and then the storm began to rise.
Thanks to cai ziming, who is in the gangster business, he intervened strongly to smooth the storm for Jet Li and also won a higher remuneration. Cai Ziming became Jet Li's new generation agent.
They were preparing to plan the new film "Dragon Gate Inn" together, but before 10 hours, Cai Ziming was shot by unknown forces, shot 9 times in the head, and died on the spot.
The patron he had just found suddenly passed away, and Jet Li, who was alone in shape, was not only taken advantage of by the enemy to take revenge, but also forced by the gang to shoot a drama.
At the time of crisis, the "Yongsheng boss lady" who likes to save people from water and fire stepped forward to Tai Chen Lan, with the help of the police situation, to protect Jet Li's personal safety throughout the day, and promised to help Jet Li pay off debts.
The condition is: the two sides reached a cooperation intention of six films in two years, each film paid 12 million yuan, Jet Li asked for advance payment.
After Jet Li got 72 million yuan to sell his body, he turned around and gave it to Li Zhi, and this huge amount of money helped Li Zhi tide over the difficulties smoothly.
Jet Li also completed films such as "The Demon Sect Leader of the Dragon Slayer", "Taiji Zhang Sanfeng", "Fang Shiyu" and other films within the contract period, which also made Jet Li's popularity soar, and at the same time achieved his peak status as the "Kung Fu Emperor".
After that, Jet Li continued to make a film contract, and at this time, Li Zhi could not hold back.
Gossip insulation, and finally a positive result
In 1996, Jet Li starred in "The Adventure King", and there were a lot of passion scenes with Guan Zhilin, and the two were like a couple in love.
The more suspicious Li Zhi thought about it, the more angry he became, so he cried and called Jet Li: "I'm leaving, I want to go back to my hometown, never to go back to Hong Kong!" ”
When Jet Li heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat, quickly chased back Li Zhi, and promised him that he would never take on passion dramas again, and keep a distance from all actresses, and ask Li Zhi for permission to shoot any scene.
Since then, Jet Li has become a gossip insulator. It is said that during an event, Karen Mok wanted to hug Jet Li, but he politely refused and pushed him away.
In 1999, the 38-year-old Li Zhi and the 36-year-old Jet Li tied the knot and ended a 10-year love run, after which they settled in the United States and married three years later, they were happy to have two daughters.
After marriage, the relationship between the two is still the same, especially during The pregnancy of Li Zhi, Jet Li pushed off a lot of work, even classic blockbusters such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" are also among them, resulting in his missing out with oscar.
When in a later interview, Jet Li was asked: Did you regret missing "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?
He replied without hesitation: never regret it, his wife and family are more important than anything else!
So many years after marriage, Jet Li also threatened many times: "After I met Li Zhi, I was in the boiling of blood every day, willing to give her no name, no profit, and even no life!" ”
May it be forgotten, and the tranquility is plain
Li Zhi, who left the show business circle, taught his husband, invested in the business world, cooperated with Ali, and lived a happy and prosperous life.
Not long ago, the little daughter posted two photos of Li Zhi on the social platform, the figure is slightly rich, netizens shouted: the temperament is still there, the charm is not there.
This may also be in line with Li Zhi's state of mind, she hopes that the world will forget her and return him to peace and ordinaryness.
The world is obsessed with Li Zhi's proud appearance and sexy charm, and this is perhaps the least important thing for Li Zhi herself.
Wisdom, reason!
She seems to always be able to make the most favorable choice for herself, not to read the past, not afraid of the future, not tired of fame and fortune, willing to be bland, is her best portrayal.
