In the past two days, Tranquility has been on the hot search because of its nationality, and then, Tranquility has responded by posting that she has never changed her nationality, just a few words, 15 exclamation points, and the domineering and absolute sweep of Tranquility.
But even with this tranquility, there has always been a soft place in the heart, leaving the person whose life stayed in 2003.
On April 1, 2003, on this day, April Fool's Day was stained with blood, taking away the brother who countless people fell for, Zhang Guorong. Among the celebrity friends who sent him off, two people did not come, these two people are Andy Lau and Tranquility, who participated in "New on the Beach" with his brother.
This article only talks about tranquility and brother's unfinished love and regret.

The famous photographer Pan Hengsheng once said that Zhang Guorong is the person he thinks is the most perfect person: "The light and heat he emits are irreplaceable, the lens is beautiful, the face can be said to be almost perfect, he is the only actor I have ever photographed without the camera, standing there is the scenery"
In a quiet heart, why is Zhang Guorong not a "person who stands there is a landscape"?
Born in 1972, Serenity was originally an ordinary student, and after graduating from high school, he first studied animation and then practiced acting.
While working as an animator at Pearl River Film Studios, he made a cameo appearance in a small role in the film "Love on Ice", and was later discovered and began to participate in different TV movies, large and small.
The transition from an animator to a professional actor was the beginning of her step-by-step approach to Zhang Guorong.
In 1994, the 22-year-old Tranquility had already made a lot of works, but it was always a small transparency in the film and television industry, until the emergence of Jiang Wen, which changed everything.
Around 1994, Jiang Wen took inspiration from Wang Shuo's novel "Animal Fierceness" and then adapted it into the screenplay "Sunny Days", and at the same time, Liu Xiaoqing also brought him financial support for filmmaking.
In the case of everything, the film's heroine candidate has never been decided, and suddenly one day, Jiang Wen saw Tranquility in the dining room, and immediately decided to invite Tranquility to play the role of his debut heroine Milan.
"Sunny Day" is very bold in shaping the character of Milan, with half-nude shots with a serene and beautiful smile, and the screen is full of just the right hormones.
Tranquility became famous overnight, and even won the Golden Horse Award nomination for Best Actress that year, and suddenly became a hot national first love in China.
"Sunny Days" seems to open up a new world of quiet acting career, and the subsequent filming of "Red River Valley" completely enriches her life trajectory.
Because of "Red River Valley", she found her love and quickly flashed marriage, and because of "Red River Valley", she was appreciated by Hong Kong director Pan Wenjie and walked into Zhang Guorong's sight.
That year, Tranquility was only 24 years old, just out of the film and television circle, and Zhang Guorong was 40 years old, already an emperor superstar and legend at home and abroad.
In 1996, Pan Wenjie's film "New on the Beach" was launched, with Zhang Guorong playing Xu Wenqiang and Tranquility playing Xu Wenqiang's sweetheart Feng Chengcheng.
This movie, just from the name, in fact, we know that it is a gangster drama, and the protagonist of the play is also a well-known old Shanghai figure.
Unlike the bloody storm in the play, Xu Wenqiang and Feng Chengcheng carry too many chaotic love feuds, Andrea and Zhang Guorong are like brothers and sisters outside the play.

Zhang Guorong, I really like tranquility.
Zhang Guorong has a good reputation in the circle that he likes to promote his juniors the most, but it is really different to be able to worry about small and small things for tranquility.
He not only openly calls Serenity his sister, but indirectly includes Serenity in his protective circle.
When filming on the set, Zhang Guorong saw that Tranquility was not eating well, and often invited Tranquility back to his home and directly cooked for Tranquility.
I always love to praise tranquility in front of outsiders, "good drama, beautiful people", full of pride and pride of being a brother.
After all, Tranquility is a novice actor, the grasp and performance of the role is not in place, Zhang Guorong will tell the story to Tranquility in detail, and tell every detail clearly before letting her try to perform.
Zhang Guorong, who grew up speaking Cantonese, even specially used a crappy Chinese to speak, and even used Chinese to speak dirty words, probably afraid that Tranquility could not understand, such thoughtful accommodation, and finally infected this "bad habit" to Tranquility.
The habit of quiet swear words, that is, learned at this time.
Zhang Guorong once quit smoking together in the corner of the set, "I smoke white Marlboro, you smoke Red Marlboro, you say I have a lot of taste?" Or should we smoke Marlboro first and then quit smoking together? ”
Tranquility is more honest, really quit smoking, but goodbye 2 years later, Zhang Guorong is still very addicted to smoking, that is to say, he purely wants to persuade Tranquility to quit smoking, or he himself wants to quit, but he can't withstand the intrusion of three thousand troublesome silks, and finally did not achieve.
As early as the 80s, Zhang Guorong was already popular throughout the country and even the world, and after working hard for so many years, he always had a dream of directing.
But at that time, when his director's dream had not even seen a shadow, he had already decided to let Serenity play his heroine and make an exclusive work for Serenity.
To this end, when the two meet again, it is already time for Zhang Guorong to prepare for his own movie "Stealing Hearts".
At that time, Zhang Guorong was holding a meeting with everyone, and when he saw Serenity enter, he immediately greeted her happily, and put his arm around Serenity and introduced herself to everyone: "This is my heroine, pretty."
With such a proud speech, we can feel Zhang Guorong's feeling of wanting to declare "this is my person" to the world.
Subsequently, he even "made his arms stronger; These few small beans on the face, go find a good Chinese medicine doctor to adjust it, and be careful when the camera is big enough to see your hair."
It is conceivable that Zhang Guorong's warm care for quiet things is infinitely detailed, and his pursuit of perfection in things.
Such warmth is not like brother and sister.

Zhang Guorong is a person who pursues perfection.
But the pursuit of perfection, sometimes not necessarily a good thing, too much attachment to the pursuit of perfection, often become a person's obsession, it is easier to make a person crazy.
In 2002, Zhang Guorong began his own transformation plan, not only setting up the "Dream United" production company, but also conceiving the story of his directorial debut.
"Stealing Hearts" is the story he first wants to direct.
In order to cover up the shortcomings of his own script creation, he even found a friend he Jiping, a famous writer, to participate in the writing of the script, and even ran to Shanghai, Beijing, Shandong Qingdao and many other places to find suitable filming locations, even costumes, props, actors, executive directors all made choices and contacts.
It can be said that for this movie, Zhang Guorong worked hard and painstakingly, but in the end, this movie could not be started because of three important factors.
Originally, the background of the story of "Stealing Hearts" was based on the early appearance of mainland cities seen by Zhang Guorong.
However, when he found the corresponding filming location to go to the scene to step on the spot, even Qingdao, which was most in line with the imagination, had long been out of the original urban scene.
This means that the background of the story is completely wrong, and Zhang Guorong has to choose to overturn the script and rewrite it with difficulty.
Second, Zhang Guorong originally looked for a film investor accident, which eventually led to the shooting funds not in place, and the film was shelved indefinitely.
Third, long-term depression in the heart, no way to seek medical treatment, coupled with many years, Zhang Guorong always stands at the top of the career, with the loneliness of "cold in the high place", and it is difficult to accept the problem of his failure, resulting in his depression worsening, lack of energy, and no longer able to do anything.
Zhang Guorong once mentioned to his friends in the dinner narrative that "if you want to die, the most direct way is to jump off the building", and finally, Zhang Guorong did choose this way to say goodbye to the world.
"Stealing Hearts" did not meet with the national audience in the end, which is not only Zhang Guorong's unfinished obsession in his life, but also a regret for a quiet life.
There was once a visit to Serenity who most wanted to work with in Hong Kong, Serenity's answer was "Zhang Guorong", and the host reminded that you have already cooperated in "New on the Beach".
But Tranquility insisted that the film that Zhang Guorong wanted to make for himself was not made in the end, he was still the actor he wanted to cooperate with the most, and in some other interview programs, Tranquility also mentioned Zhang Guorong and some of his past events many times.
Such a person who took good care of himself, but in the end, he did not give him a ride, and even, again and again, when he arrived in Hong Kong, he clearly said that he wanted to see him, and in the end, he did not make a trip.
When Tranquility mentioned Zhang Guorong in "Crossover Singer King", when talking about these experiences, he was full of loneliness and irrepressible pain.
In those years with Zhang Guorong, who owed whom?
