Recently, Jet Li and Li Zhi's eldest daughter Jane posted a group of photos of participating in the dance on the social platform, and she was elegant and sexy in the photo, which had the charm of her mother Li Zhi when she was young. But it is also because of these photos, many netizens mentioned that Jet Li abandoned the original Huang Qiuyan for the sake of Li Zhi.
So what kind of story happened between Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan? Why did Jet Li abandon Huang Qiuyan for the sake of Li Zhi? How is Huang Qiuyan doing now?
The past is like a cloud, and everything has to start from the beginning of the story.
Huang Qiuyan was born in Beijing in 1961, her family conditions are very good, her father Huang Boshou is the choreographer of the Beijing Military Region's Cultural and Labor Troupe, and her mother Chen Lianghuan is a dance teacher at the Beijing Song and Dance Theater. Originally, her parents' plan was to hope that Huang Qiuyan would pursue a career in the dance industry in the future, but when Huang Qiuyan was 11 years old, due to changes in the domestic situation, they sent her to Beijing Shichahai Sports School to learn martial arts, where Huang Qiuyan met Jet Li, who was 2 years younger than herself. At that time, Huang Qiuyan could not have imagined that many years later she would marry this boy who was two years younger than herself and eventually be abandoned by him.
In the days of Shichahai Sports School, the relationship between the two was very good. Because Jet Li is two years old, Huang Qiuyan loves Jet Li very much. At that time, Jet Li died when his father was 4 years old, and he had a difficult life with his mother, two sisters and two brothers. So there was good food at home, Huang Qiuyan took it to Jet Li to eat, Huang Qiuyan also made up some excuses to find her parents to ask for money, bought gifts to visit Jet Li and her mother at Jet Li's house. Huang Qiuyan won the Beijing Women's Snake Fist and Swordplay Championship, and Jet Li participated in the Wushu Taolu Competition at the National Games in 1975 and won the all-around championship.
Such an excellent Jet Li participated in the movie "Shaolin Temple" in 1982, and he became famous overnight at the age of 19, but he did not become rich because of it, but the film remuneration was very low. Jet Li, who entered the acting world, did not forget his sister Huang Qiuyan, who recommended Huang Qiuyan to Zhang Xinyan, the director of the movie "Shaolin Kid", so Huang Qiuyan starred in the film together with Jet Li. In the process of continuous getting along, the feelings between the two have become deeper and deeper, and Huang Qiuyan is as good as ever for Jet Li, jet Li also enjoys this good, at that time in the eyes of the outside world, they are a very good match.
However, the real escalation of jet Li and Huang Qiuyan's relationship was in 1985. This year, Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan filmed the movie "North and South Shaolin" together, during the filming process Jet Li broke his left leg, and Jet Li, who was lying in the hospital for treatment, was in a very bad mood, he felt that his acting career was about to be ruined, and the doctor told him that he might be disabled for life. In such a gray and dark moment of life, Huang Qiuyan has always accompanied him and knitted sweaters for him. When the sweater was knitted, she personally put it on Jet Li and said to him: "No matter what happens to your legs, I am willing to be with you forever!" ”
In 1987, Huang Qiuyan and Jet Li entered the palace of marriage, and for the feelings between them, Huang Qiuyan once said: "We have been practicing together for twenty years, and our feelings have developed naturally, and our lives are plain and not so romantic." As long as I am with him, I am quite happy, because his temper and personality are quite good. ”
After marriage, Huang Qiuyan followed Jet Li to Los Angeles to develop, but the reality is very cruel, they still have some fame in China, no one knows in the United States, in order to survive, Jet Li can only rely on martial arts training to make money, they also do not have enough money to buy a house, and finally the couple took out a loan to buy a house on the outskirts of Los Angeles.
Also in the United States, their eldest daughter Li Si was born, when Huang Qiuyan was pregnant with her second child, Jet Li, who was worried about life, received an invitation from director Luo Wei to play the male number one in the movie "Dragon in the End of the World", receiving this invitation, Jet Li was very happy, he packed his bags and went to Hong Kong, leaving Huang Qiuyan and the child in Los Angeles, they contacted once every three weeks, for Jet Li to fight for his career, to work hard to support his family, Huang Qiuyan was also very supportive, but she would not think of Jet Li to shoot " "The Dragon at the End of the World" is the beginning of his own nightmare.
In the crew of "The Dragon at the End of the World", Jet Li met Li Zhi, who was already a big star at that time. Li Zhi also suffered a lot before becoming famous, and Jet Li also felt depressed, they talked very speculatively, Jet Li felt that Li Zhi "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." ”
Jet Li fell in love with Li Zhi.
In the face of such a feeling, Jet Li also suffered, because he already had a wife and children at that time, he seriously thought about the feelings between himself and Huang Qiuyan, and he found that Huang Qiuyan had eighty percent of his feelings for himself, while his feelings for Huang Qiuyan were only twenty percent.
In the end, Jet Li chose to give up Huang Qiuyan because he found that he could pay "fame, status, and even life" for Li Zhi.
He filed for divorce for Huang Qiuyan, who was far away on the other side of the ocean, and although Huang Qiuyan was miserable, she still agreed because she found that "the person you love is not happy because you are by his side." ”
In 1990, Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan divorced, and their marriage lasted only 3 years.
Jet Li knew that he was sorry for Huang Qiuyan, so he chose to go out of the house, but at that time he did not have any property, the most expensive property was the house he bought in Los Angeles, he left the house to Huang Qiuyan, at that time he already had two daughters, he gave the custody of both daughters to Huang Qiuyan.
But Huang Qiuyan's family could not make much money in the United States, and soon she could not afford to repay the loan for the house, the house was auctioned by the bank, and if it were not for a kind Chinese old lady who took in their mother and daughter to live in the basement of their home, they would be living on the street.
Watching the children suffer with themselves, Huang Qiuyan was very unbearable, she contacted Jet Li and asked Jet Li to take the child back to china to live, so the two daughters returned to Beijing, Jet Li was too busy, the two children were mainly taken care of by his mother and sister.
Jet Li and Li Zhi's two daughters
Although there is no pressure to take care of the children, Huang Qiuyan's life in the United States is still very difficult. Jet Li, who learned that Huang Qiuyan's life was very bad, contacted his beautician friend Zheng Mingming to help Huang Qiuyan, who opened a beauty salon in Los Angeles at that time. So Huang Qiuyan went to Zheng Mingming's beauty salon to study beauty, and soon after she became a beautician in Zheng Mingming's beauty salon, and worked for 10 years. Later, because of her good skills, exquisite craftsmanship, and a lot of customers, she rented a small house and opened a barber shop, although she said that she could not get rich and expensive, but it was no problem to support herself.
During this period, Huang Qiuyan also had time to visit her two children and Jet Li's mother in Beijing. In front of the child, Huang Qiuyan never said that Jet Li was not, she said to her two daughters: "Although Dad and Mom are separated, we are still friends and will always love you." Jet Li's mother cried every time she saw Huang Qiuyan, she said: "Such a good girl, how can Jet be willing to be separated from you?" Huang Qiuyan comforted her: "Mom, he has his ideas, you must not blame him." Later, Jet Li's mother called Jet Li and told Jet Li what Huang Qiuyan said, and Jet Li on the other end of the phone cried.
An interesting thing is that after Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan divorced, Li Zhi did not marry him immediately, but made a ten-year contract with him, which means that if the two did not change their hearts after 10 years, then get married. Jet Li agreed, and in the past 10 years, Li Zhi has invested 10 million US dollars in shandong real estate and failed, and he is heavily in debt. In order to help Li Zhi get through the difficulties, Jet Li signed a contract with Xiang Huaqiang and Chen Lan in Hong Kong for 2 years and 6 films, each paid 12 million Hong Kong dollars, Jet Li gave all 72 million Hong Kong dollars to Li Zhi, helping Li Zhi tide over the difficulties, which also made Li Zhi completely identify Jet Li. The two married in 1999, when their ten-year term expired, and after marriage, they gave birth to daughters Jane and Jada.
Compared with Jet Li's return to a happy family life, Huang Qiuyan lived in the shadow of marital failure for a long time after the divorce, and her family and friends also introduced her to the object, but she was not interested, and she lost the ability to start a relationship again. It wasn't until 2004 that she met a restaurant owner surnamed Wang, a native of Shandong, who owned a restaurant near her barbershop.
Because she often went to this restaurant to eat, Huang Qiuyan and Boss Wang slowly became familiar with each other, and she also slowly learned that boss Wang gave all his property to his ex-wife when he divorced. Even if his ex-wife encounters difficulties after the divorce and asks him for help, he will also help. Later, his ex-wife got cancer, boss Wang took good care of her, and also devoted his family property to treat her, unfortunately, his ex-wife still failed to overcome the disease.
Boss Wang's act of gravity and righteousness touched Huang Qiuyan very much, and after a period of contact, they established a romantic relationship. As for why she chose Boss Wang, Huang Qiuyan said: "Marriage is not for the sake of fame and profit, as long as your lover is of good character and truly loves me, it is enough." ”
On November 21, 2005, Huang Qiuyan and Boss Wang married in the United States, and Huang Qiuyan was 44 years old. On the day of Huang Qiuyan's wedding, Jet Li sent Huang Qiuyan a gift of 50,000 US dollars in the name of his two daughters, and also sent her a mobile phone text message to send her the most sincere wishes. After marriage, Huang Qiuyan did not see Jet Li for many years, until the 33rd anniversary of the "Shaolin Kid" crew reunited, they met, and had a rare post-divorce photo of the same frame.
Today's Huang Qiuyan and Boss Wang are in love with each other in the United States and live happily. Jet Li also had a harmonious family and good years.
As for the right and wrong between them, it can only be commented on. But who can say clearly about the emotional matter.
