People always have a stereotype.
For example, seeing that kind of independent, capable, strong woman automatically reduces her to the so-called "strong woman".
Yao Chen is like this, always giving people a feeling of full aura, as if nothing can overwhelm her, and there is nothing that bothers her.
However, after the second marriage, Yao Chen became very low-key.
A few recent photos she posted on Weibo a few days ago were really stunning.
Perhaps the style is very different from the Guo Furong and Guo Mingyu we know well, but every time we try, it may be a new pursuit and breakthrough in life.
Guo Furong, that's who I am
In 1979, Yao Chen was born into an ordinary family. Unlike Su Mingyu in the TV series, as an only child, she has enjoyed the meticulous care of her parents since she was a child.
Family is a shackle to Mingyu, but it is Yao Chen's deepest entanglement. However, although the original families were different, they had some similar fate trajectories: like Mingyu, Yao Chen also left home when he was young.
At the age of 14, Yao Chen went north alone and went to the Beijing Dance Academy to learn folk dance.
After graduation, she stayed in the Fuzhou Dance Troupe, which was originally very comfortable. But whenever she calmed down, a voice always lingered in her ears: This is not the life I want.
With the encouragement of her teacher, she had a new idea: to enter the Beijing Film Academy.
Many people say that this road is more difficult to walk, but when she is young, she is full of fantasies about the outside world: instead of living a life in a small place, it is better to break out of her own new world.
But she didn't know that this choice would completely change her life.
When she first graduated, she auditioned everywhere, but she was frequently rejected because of her appearance. In the end, she broke the positioning of "Big Qingyi" given to her by her teachers in the school and chose to take over a sitcom - that is, "The Legend of Wulin", which became a hit later.
To this day, the tooth-and-clawed Guo Furong still vividly remains in the hearts of many post-90s generations.
But Yao Chen's requirements for him never stopped there. Since then, she has begun to challenge different roles:
The fierce and fearless Cuiping in "Latent", the independent and spontaneous Luo Li in "Divorce Lawyer", Li Jie who is desperate for his children in "Find You", and then Su Mingyu in "All Is Good"...
It seems that no matter how big the span of the role she plays, she can grasp the core of the character, give the character vitality, and leave a deep impression on the audience.
The outside world often commented that she said that Yao Chen is very good at picking scripts, in fact, her ability to shape the role is more worthy of attention.
But what others don't know is how much heartache she has experienced from the dark and confused once to the later soaring. As Yao Chen lamented in a previous interview:
"If I had been 14 years old, I would have known that in the 25 years I had been in Beijing, I would have encountered so many things and encountered so many difficulties, I would have been scared away."
"A flying car pushes you up, that's scary, it's going to get out of control, you don't have any time to calm down and think about it... I must have made a lot of people feel uncomfortable at that time, and I didn't know it myself, because it was really too late to look at other people's feelings, you didn't mean it, but you just couldn't see it. ”
There is no medicine for regret
Yao Chen made a comeback after giving birth to his second child, telling his predicament in "Starry Sky Speech".
Because she got married and had children, and almost gave birth to two children in a row, as the best golden period for actresses, she was almost used to raise a fetus at home, and when she came back, she found that the entertainment industry gave middle-aged actresses a good opportunity, very few.
Regrets? Of course.
If she had chosen a different path, she might have become an internationally acclaimed actress by now.
But do you regret it? Yao Chen said no.
Because whether it is to be an actor or get married and have children, it is her own choice.
There is a passage in "Please Answer 1994":
There is no regretless choice in this world, and there is no right answer in life, just firmly believe that the path chosen is the right answer and turn it into the right answer.
Therefore, after her comeback, she worked hard to shoot dramas, firmly improved her acting skills, and finally relied on "All Is Good" to reach a higher level.
Life is a process before death, everyone is born to die, so there is no need to regret their choices, every regret is a waste of life.
Every choice is every self-reinvention and continuous growth, so whether you are facing the moment of choice, or on the way after the choice, I hope that you can have less swing, less regret, and more calmness.
The most terrible thing in life is to regret and live at the same time, so when making every choice, choose what we can bear, bear what we choose.
The places I'm going to are hometowns I've never met.
What was before is now is now. I can't choose how to live and how to die; but I can decide how to love and how to live.
This time, Yao Chen proved himself again with Su Mingyu, and Su Mingyu also reshaped Yao Chen.
Words outweigh deeds are what this character feeds back to her.
Survive the outstanding, can not survive the out
Isn't that how life is?
The road ahead was dark and I couldn't see anything. I am afraid that there will be a quagmire, and I am afraid that I will choose the wrong path.
The road of life, the road is obstructed and long, and the darkest moment comes quietly.
Survive the outstanding, can not survive the out.
There is a fragment of Yao Chen's work "Send Me to Qingyun" that is impressive:
Sheng Nan, an independent and self-motivated female journalist, suddenly found herself with ovarian cancer.
What's even more sad is that the operation costs 300,000 yuan, and she only has 30,000 in total.
She tried to ask her family for help, but before she could speak, her father said that she had a problem with the company's funds and asked her for money first, and she swallowed the words on her lips again;
She asked Mao Yu, who has been a colleague and friend for many years, to borrow money, Mao Yu's reaction is more realistic, he said, even if you have surgery, there is only half the probability that you can live for 5 more years, if you die, who do I look for to pay back this money?
At that moment, Sheng Nan found that there was no one to rely on, and the only one who could rely on himself was himself.
So she began to face herself squarely and seek a way to reconcile with the world.
Even on the verge of life and death, she did not complain, cowardly, but strong to earn herself medical expenses, meet people who are not accustomed to it and lose and still uncompromisingly go back...
Similar to Sheng Nan in "Send Me to Qingyun", Yao Chen in life faces problems and also finds ways to reconcile with himself and live hard.
Yao Chen said: "Because of hard work, I have the right to choose. Because I became a mother, I understood the meaning of life and gave me the courage to face the cruelty of life. ”
In the face of the crisis of middle-aged actresses given by the outside world, the crisis of the inability to balance the family career given by the inside. Yao Chen was also looking for another way for himself in his anxiety.
An egg that breaks from the inside is life, and a broken egg from the outside is food.
Mixed joys and sorrows, the wind and rain are about to come to life, take the initiative to attack, and the road is in front of you.
Beauvoir said: "Women are not born, women become".
Adult life is unbearable, complaining, uneasy, can only be chaotic, only adjust the state, the pressure to protect, into a driving force, in order to slowly rise after the trough.
Although life is not satisfactory nine times out of ten, I hope you can cross the river and the sea, and cultivate your own armor in the impermanence of the world.
Not attached, not afraid, not backward, and life hard to the end.
