In today's rapid development of the television and film industry, various types of movies and TV series are filled with people's daily lives. TV dramas and movies with historical themes have especially been loved by the vast number of audiences and friends, whether it is the emperors and generals of the feudal era or the great pioneers of the revolutionary era, they have been put on the TV screen and movie screen.
In a series of works on China's modern history, we can often see the figure of the great leader Chairman Mao, in today's film and television drama works are full of flowers, for the role of these great figures began to require god-like, sometimes looks may not be very important. However, in the early days of the development of China's television industry, there were special requirements for actors who played great people, and they should do their best to achieve the shape of mergers, especially to achieve similarities, and we also called this part of the actors special actors.

In the early films and television dramas, Chairman Mao had several special actors, but the most famous was Gu Yue, who on the one hand had a very similar appearance to the great leader Chairman Mao, and on the other hand, he was personally selected by Marshal Ye Jianying in 1978. He played Chairman Mao in several films and television series and won several awards.
Because he is Chairman Mao's special actor, Gu Yue's acting life can be regarded as smooth sailing. However, his life was somewhat bitter, his parents were revolutionary workers, sacrificed their lives for the development of the country and the future of the Chinese nation, and had been in an orphanage since childhood, and later his parents' comrades-in-arms took him to the army, so he grew up in the army. As an adult, although the career is smooth, the emotional life has been tortuous.
Gu Yue's work after growing up was actually not an actor, he grew up in the PLA troops, and when he grew up, he naturally chose to serve in the PLA troops, until 1978, by chance, he was selected by Marshal Ye Jianying and became Chairman Mao's special actor, and has since embarked on the actor industry. His real name was Hu Shixue, and later in order to engage in the artistic life of acting, he split his surname "Hu" into the word "Guyue" and became a stage name.
In 1981, Gu Yue starred in the first film of his life, "The Xi'an Incident", which received a lot of praise after its release, and the actor gradually became well known to most people, and later Gu Yue participated in the filming of many TV movies, and you also played chairman Mao's actor. During this period, Gu Yue had already married and started a family, but about his first wife, there was not much information searched on the Internet, and most of the information was simply written as a "marriage widow".
Later, Gu Yue met a woman named Gui Ping, and they had been together for 17 years. Gui Ping is a drama actor, Gu Yue's initial performance in the movie was helped by Gui Ping to bring him into the play, they have the same interests, but also promoted a happy family, but this marriage still did not last to the end, because the later acting career was smooth, but this also made his private time less and less, the burden of life was all pressed on Gui Ping's body, the long-term trivialities consumed Gui Ping's fantasy of love, Gui Ping chose to leave and pursue her dreams again.
At that time, Gu Yue was nearly half a hundred years old, and he did not have the heart to find a new partner, and his work became a little unsmooth because of the divorce, and in that conservative era, divorce would seriously affect the image of a public figure, and the pressure of public opinion would oppress him from time to time. But a feeling went to the extreme, And Gu Yue couldn't do anything about it, just when he was at his most depressed, a woman named Zhang Yan walked into his life.
Zhang Yan is also a special actor, she often plays Song Qingling in TV series and movies, the two because of acting, and finally came together, because the age difference is too large, they were also opposed by many people, but they finally overcame many difficulties to come together, after marriage, Zhang Yan chose to return to the family, husband and godson, and then the two of them lived a plain life, but also happy.
