"The mountains and rivers are doubtful and there is no way, and the willows are dark and the flowers are bright and another village."
Nine times out of ten things are not satisfactory in life, when they are in difficult situations, some people are positively faced, and some people are sluggish. And some people have to meet noble people from now on to spread their wings and fly high, and they are out of control.
In the 1980s and 1990s, there were many grassroots heroes who achieved extraordinary things in the great wave of reform. One of the grassroots heroes comes from the grassroots of society, not young and beautiful, nor has a strong background, relying on a firm belief in art to accidentally hit and bump into a comedian.
In the TV series "Country Love", the owner of the Bin County Hotel, "Flower Sister", left an extremely deep impression on the audience.
"Flower Sister"'s straight-talking heart and ancient hot sausage have become the finishing touches of the whole play. Who would have thought that such an old lady with a rich personality was played by a man named Zhang Xiyong.
With the development of the plot, the role of "Flower Sister" is becoming less and less or even disappearing. Why?
Zhang Xiyong was born into a family of ordinary workers and has loved art since childhood. In school he has been the backbone of literature and art. But the sky did not go according to people's wishes, and Zhang Xiyong's dream was shattered with his mother's retirement.
In 1978, when Zhang Xiyong turned 18, he was forced to replace his mother in an explosion-proof factory with less than 100 people in Shenyang. In the simple repetition of operations day after day, Zhang Xiyong gradually grew tired of such boring days.
But at that time, people were still very conservative. For Zhang Xiyong's stable job, many people are envious. Zhang Xiyong can only resign himself to fate and work with peace of mind.
At this time, he reached the age of talking about marriage. In 1983, Zhang Xiyong married Hu Baijun. The two families have lived next to each other for decades.
It just so happened that Hu Baijun also replaced his mother and Zhang Xiyong working in the same factory. The fate of the two is destined. It's hard to come by. Living in the 1980s, both couples had stable jobs that were common in Chinese families at the time.
The two of them had a very moist life. In 1985, the government issued a notice requiring a number of enterprises such as explosion-proof factories to carry out restructuring, and if they did not see results in a year, they required these enterprises to go bankrupt and liquidated.
Zhang Xiyong and his wife heard this news like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. The factory then went unpaid for months during the reorganization. The couple has no income to live with, and they are anxious about it all day.
Forced to make a living, the couple had to set up stalls to do business. The two put a shandong small mountain fruit called "mushroom fruit" in a neat yard and sold it on the street. This small mountain fruit only earns a small profit of 2 cents, and it is difficult to bring them food and clothing.
Zhang Xiyong and his wife set up stalls to do business while waiting for the factory to come back to life. However, in 1986, the explosion-proof machinery factory was still closed, and Zhang Xiyong and his wife became the first batch of laid-off workers after liberation.
At this time, the two were only in their twenties, and they were at a loss for words about this situation. Zhang Xiyong, who had no food and clothing, and his wife Hu Baijun decided to do some small business to make a living.
But mushrooms don't make money at all. Together, the two began to look for a way out. The two then started a plastic bag wholesale business in the commodity wholesale market. Unfortunately, both times the business did not go well. In desperation. Zhang Xiyong stepped into the factory again and began to engage in boring and repetitive work. The days are getting better.
At this time, the land of Shenzhou quietly changed. The new wave is coming, and people are gradually embracing new things. Zhang Xiyong's artistic dream, which has been hidden in his heart for many years, is eager to move.
In the early 1990s, entertainment venues mushroomed across the country. Similarly, Shenyang has set off a wave of opening song and dance restaurants.
Zhang Xiyong heard that the song and dance restaurant could sing and make money, so he went to try it. Who knew that for the first time on stage, Zhang Xiyong won a round of applause. The first performance was appreciated by the owner of the song and dance restaurant, and Zhang Xiyong's confidence was doubled.
Subsequently, Zhang Xiyong was invited to sing a lot, and his income also doubled. Subsequently, Zhang Xiyong simply resigned to sing in the restaurant.
At that time, Zhao Benshan starred in the Spring Festival Gala, and Zhang Xiyong regarded Zhao Benshan as an example. By chance, Zhang Xiyong was ridiculed for looking like an old lady when he sang along. With this sarcastic remark, Zhang Xiyong suddenly woke up, and since then he has begun to regurgitate the old lady's popularity in the northeast.
With the growing popularity, Zhang Xiyong was invited to participate in the anti-string role in the column of Liaoning Satellite TV's "Big Talk Pop".
Because the male and female costumes made the audience shine, Zhang Xiyong was highly recognized by the audience. Since then, Zhang Xiyong's reputation has been greatly shocked, and he has been favored by Zhao Benshan.
Zhang Xiyong was 53 years old and worshipped Zhao Benshan as a teacher. Zhao Benshan has always been a person who loves talents and cherishes talents, and then he arranged for Zhang Xiyong to participate in the role of "Flower Sister" in "Country Love".
On the screen, the audience was laughed at by the "Flower Sister", and to this day some people still affectionately call Zhang Xiyong "Flower Sister", which shows that people are particularly impressed by his role in "Country Love".
But then the character of "Flower Sister" in "Country Love" disappeared. People have speculated that Zhang Xiyong, the actor of "Flower Sister", may have a conflict with Zhao Benshan.
According to Zhao Benshan's consistent style, in any dispute between master and apprentice, Zhao Benshan will use means to punish him or even ban it. But this is not the case, Zhang Xiyong and Zhao Benshan have always had a good relationship.
Zhao Benshan did not allow Zhang Xiyong to continue to star in the TV series "Country Love", for two reasons, one is that Zhang Xiyong personally has his own development path.
All along, although Zhang Xiyong has experienced setbacks, he has been meticulous in his work. Zhao Benshan appreciated this and entrusted the operation of the Liu Laogen Grand Theater to Zhang Xiyong.
Zhang Xiyong himself respects Master's decision, in addition, he has his own short video platform to show everyone his talents, and he himself is very satisfied with the current situation.
The second is that the "flower sister" played by Zhang Xiyong is positioned as the boss lady of the Bin County Hotel. In the future development of the story, the character of "Flower Sister" does not need to appear again.
Zhang Xiyong realized that these voluntarily retreated to the second line. Liu Laogen is an indispensable economic income for Zhao Benshan. Naturally, he wanted to leave it to zhang Xiyong, the person he trusted most, to take care of.
Zhang Xiyong began as an ordinary working class, and his dreams were out of reach for him. In the first half of his life, his life was full of hardships.
But he was never defeated by difficulties, but tried to find a way out. It is this dedication that has brought him to where he is today.
In the 1980s and 1990s, many stars emerged. Most of them have gone through ups and downs, and with their dedication to art and hard work, they have achieved such brilliant achievements today.
The times make people, and the characters affect the times.
