Looking at the entire entertainment industry, which star is not groping for more than ten years, and finally got the love of the audience. If you want to be famous, one depends on the background, the second depends on the strength, and the third is luck. In addition to the second generation of stars such as Guan Xiaotong, almost all stars have come step by step with their own efforts, including Zhang Shen.
Perhaps many people have not heard of this name, but to say that he has played a role, many people should have the impression that he is the eclipse king in "Seven Fairies of Heaven and Joy", and he is also the duke of the land in "Journey to the West". However, in reality, he is only 1.15 meters, and it is conceivable that his road is much more bumpy than others. What has Zhang Shen experienced? How is life now?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="4" > had a tragic childhood and suffered from dwarfism</h1>
Zhang Shen was born in 1966 to a poor family in Inner Mongolia. The conditions at home are not good, so poor that even eating has become a problem, but fortunately, his parents are very good to Zhang Shen, as long as Zhang Shen wants something, his parents will try their best to help him do it. The family, though poor, enjoyed it.
In Zhang Shen's heart, he was also very satisfied, as long as the family was safe and sound, it was enough. As he grew older, Zhang Shen became more and more thoughtful, he could not bear to watch his parents suffer and suffer, and silently swore in his heart that he would do great things in the future and let them live a good life.
But the roof leaked during the overnight rain, and when Zhang Shen was still young, his parents found that he was different from others, and his height was more than one meter, not long at all. At first, his parents thought that nutrition could not keep up, so they gave him a strong supplement, but after a few years, he was still more than a meter. Originally, the reason why Zhang's extension was not high was that his parents belonged to close relatives and married, resulting in Zhang Shen being born with dwarfism.
At first, Zhang Shen did not know that his body was defective, and when children of the same age were growing tall, he realized that he was different, and everyone often said that Zhang Shen was a dwarf. Slowly, Zhang Shen's personality became very withdrawn, for a long time he did not talk much, obviously reaching the age of school, but because of his height, he dragged on again and again.
Zhang Shen's childhood was very miserable, except for his parents, almost no one spoke to him, no matter what he did, he was always alone. Unable to go to school, Zhang Shen decided to go to work, but he found a lot of jobs, but he refused him for reasons of being small. In desperation, he had to go to the welfare home for the disabled as a miscellaneous worker. Here, he would run to see people performing when he had nothing to do, and because of this, he also had the heart to be an actor.
But when he told everyone what he thought, all he got was ridicule, saying that he, a person who had never even studied, actually wanted to be an actor. Look at the stars on TV, which one is like him to have no strength, to look no face. Therefore, Zhang Shen's dream of being an actor has not yet begun, and he will be dissuaded by everyone.

But in Zhang Shen's view, even if others are not optimistic about himself, even if this road is difficult to walk, he must try it. In this way, he came to Beijing and became a member of thousands of Northern Drifters. Like the extras, every morning he would go to the Door of the North Shadow, and he thought to himself, maybe someone would look at him.
But the ideal is very full, and the reality is very cruel. Zhang Shen lost a lot of opportunities because of his height problem, and even the running dragon suit could be brushed off. At the beginning, without any income, he could only rely on friends and family subsidies, and Zhang Shen did not want to do this, but he did not have any way. He was willing to work hard, but God wouldn't even give him a chance to work hard.
Finally, his persistence touched the heavens, and Zhang Shen ushered in the first play of his life, playing a small leader in "Tibet Kid". After that, he was favored by the director of "The Legend of the Hero of Donggui" and played the role of "Bald Ma'er".
Although these two plays do not have many scenes and few shots, Zhang Shen is very satisfied. For him, these two plays are the keys to open the door of his dreams, very tiring but well worth it.
In just a few minutes, Zhang Shen's excellent performance was appreciated by the director. They couldn't have imagined that this man in his early one-meter head would have such an explosive force. Zhang Shen began to be concerned by people, and his pragmatism and diligence were also looked at by more directors, and more and more plays began to look for him.
After living well, Zhang Shen was not proud and arrogant, he knew very well in his heart that his strength was not enough, he ran the crew every day, and strived to get his own experience.
During this period, he was also ridiculed, but most of the people were very kind, like Jiang Wen, Li Baotian, etc., who not only did not look down on Zhang Shen, but also gave him a lot of help. Later, Zhang Shen's height of 1.15 meters successfully won the role of the Yin Eclipse King of the Seven Fairies of Joy and Joy, which won unanimous praise from the audience, and to this day, many post-90s are still impressed by it.
In his career, Zhang Shen can also be regarded as bitter, but he is also a man and is very yearning for married life. But because of his own physical reasons, he was both afraid and longing, but in his 40s, love came. By chance, Zhang Shen met Ma Ling, a group actor, who was 18 years younger than Zhang Shen and was normal in all aspects of her body, so Zhang Shen was inferior at first.
As the two became closer and closer, Zhang Shen was very concerned and cared for Ma Ling, and Ma Ling also told Zhang Shen that she had a good feeling for him, and in this way, the two were together. Soon, Zhang Shen and Ma Ling held a wedding in Qingshuihe, and in 2012, they gave birth to a son, and Zhang Shen finally lived his ideal life.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="32" > wife become "snobbish" after marriage</h1>
After getting married, Zhang Shen quit the show business circle and prepared to go back to his hometown with his wife to open a shop and live a peaceful life. But Ma Ling did not want him to quit, and wanted him to make more money outside. Since getting married, Ma Ling has been like a changed person, spending a lot of money. He was also not attentive to his son, and once fed his son something to eat, he stuffed the debris into it.
After Zhang Shen knew, he directly quarreled with Ma Ling, but on second thought, it was normal for Ma Ling to be poorly cared for as a mother. At ma Ling's strong request, Zhang Shen was forced to return to the entertainment circle, but ma Ling was still not satisfied, and it turned out that Ma Ling also wanted to shoot a scene. In desperation, Zhang Shen had to take Ma Ling to Inner Mongolia, and it happened that he took a play there, as long as he talked to the director, he should also be able to find a group role for his wife.
But Zhang Shen was not satisfied with what Ma Ling did, and when Zhang Xiang was invited to perform in "Journey to the West 2", Zhang Shen really couldn't leave, so he pushed the invitation. But after Ma Ling knew, the two had a big quarrel, Ma Ling said that Zhang Shen "only has a son in his eyes", and Zhang Shen retorted to Ma Ling that "his eyes are high and his hands are low, and everything must be taken slowly".
The more the two quarreled, the more fierce, Zhang Shen knew very well in his heart, his wife just thought that he earned less, not as much as before, and finally Ma Ling had to go to court to divorce Zhang Shen.
The answer given by the court was simple, Ma Ling could not get a divorce because of insufficient evidence. She was not willing, so she twisted her mind to give her son to the orphanage or other relatives, but how could Zhang Shen agree? Just like that, Ma Ling left the child and left.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="34" > conclusion:</h1>
Now Zhang Shen is raising his son alone, and even if he can't eat, he will never let his son go hungry.
From childhood to adulthood, Zhang Shen has experienced the heartache that others do not have, and although he has faded out of the screen now, the Eclipse King will always remain in everyone's heart.
