In the past two days, have all the students started working one after another?
The hard-working Ba Ba only rested for two days during the entire Spring Festival, which means he started working early.
But for most people, now is the day when construction begins and a new atmosphere begins.
So I won’t mention the troublesome melons, let’s talk about something festive.
Nowadays, making money is the main theme. During the Spring Festival, everyone’s attention is focused on the box office explosion and the star’s popularity.
Amidst all the excitement, there is a small piece of good news that may not be noticed by many people, but it makes Ba Ba sincerely want to say congratulations: On Valentine's Day, the third day of the Lunar New Year, Fala Chen Announced the birth of a daughter.
What is worthy of congratulations is not only the fact of becoming a mother; but also because she allows us to see that the age fear and identity anxiety that trap many women are not actually as imagined. So scary.
As long as you dare to start over, you can still live a wonderful life.
——I am the dividing line that refuses to be torn apart——
Nowadays, when TVB Five Little Flowers are mentioned, many people miss them That era when everyone has his own beauty.
Especially compared to today, the three-color Taiwanese flowers are lackluster in terms of recognition and acting skills. However, after watching them, everyone discovered the value of the previous generation.
But during the period when Wu Xiaohua was active on the screen, there were many critical voices against them. Among them, the one who has been criticized the most harshly may be Fala Chen.
Among the Five Little Flowers, Myolie Wu, Yang Yi and Xu Zishan all have acting masterpieces; although Zhong Jiaxin's acting skills are controversial, she has always been a positive image of a good girl.
Only Chen Fala has been labeled with the most negative labels: pretty, poor acting, bottom of the pack, abandoned wife of a wealthy family...
During the three-color stage, it seemed that her only redeeming feature was her sweet appearance.
Fala Chen has won the Miss Asian National Pageant, the Miss Chinese New York Pageant and the runner-up of Miss Chinese International. The beauty pageant allowed her to enter the colorful entertainment industry.
After signing with TVB as an actress, what made her stand out was her beauty.
In 2007, a push-button scene in "The Troops" became the talk of the town. Later, she played a pole dancer wearing hot pants and fishnet stockings in "The Love Transfer", and her image of a sexy vixen was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Originally, this kind of role can be regarded as a unique position that can be remembered among all the beauties.
However, the Hong Kong media insisted on improving the role of actors and put the label of "Jiao Jing" on Fala Chen (note: "Jiao" means coquettish).
Chen Fala hated this nickname extremely and said more than once that she hoped not to call her that again.
In order to get rid of this label, Fala Chen worked hard to take on other types of roles.
She acted quite well as the good girl in the two "Heart-Breaking Storm" films.
However, due to the popularity of the series and the lovable characters, it has also gained a lot of popularity.
But a low-difficulty character like a good girl can only be used as an entry-level character. When Fala Chen tried to take the lead again, she seemed to be struggling.
In "Stealth Sniper", she played the role of CIB senior female inspector Zhou Wangqing. She broke through the image and got a short hair style. When acting, she often had an expressionless face in order to appear capable, but the aura of the female boss was different. I didn’t come out, and I still didn’t have enough strength.
What really made her get complained about was the movie "Up to the Sky 2".
The role played by Fala Chen is indeed a bit "artificial". She often gets angry for no reason, bursts into tears and then runs away. But the point is, Fala Chen cried for a long time, but she didn't cry any tears. Come on...
The static is okay, but when I start to make exaggerated expressions, the whole facial features are distorted... No matter how beautiful the beauty is, such acting skills will lose points. Yes.
Fala Chen was criticized on-screen, and off-screen because of the feud between wealthy families, she became the object of entertainment and ridicule by the masses.
The Hong Kong media, which have always been snobbish, when the scandal between Fala Chen and the second-generation rich man Xue Shiheng spread, they were all envious at first and shouted "Prince with a net worth of 1.3 billion" and "Wealthy family" Wife-to-be".
However, Fala Chen is very low-key. During her relationship, she always claimed that "everyone is friends" and her marriage was not made public.
However, the news of the secret marriage was still exposed by the all-pervasive Hong Kong media, and the wedding ring on Xue Shiheng's hand was also photographed as irrefutable evidence.
Although Fala Chen does not want to stir up the topic, it cannot stop the Hong Kong media’s curiosity about the wealthy family.
Coupled with the encounter with Zhuge Ziqi, a strange sister-in-law and a senior patient with princess disease, she fell into an embarrassing situation where it was difficult to keep a high profile even if she didn't want to, and she had to tear her apart even if she didn't want to.
Xue Shiheng is the eldest son of Xue, and Zhuge Ziqi married the second son Xue Jialin.
Zhuge was originally a small model with no impressive achievements, but he relied on his ability to create hype and made himself famous.
She claims to be the 63rd generation descendant of Zhuge Liang, and frequently makes outrageous and stupid quotes:
"You don't have to have a boyfriend, but you must have a servant." "It's easy to flip over on a bus. It's two stories high. It's easy to flip over with a bang when turning."
Someone also broke the news to the media that Ms. Zhuge is suspected of having six copies of ID cards with different names, and her birth years range from 1978 to 1985*** in 6 different years!
This operation is really breathtaking
Ms. Zhuge, who became famous through speculation, will certainly not miss the opportunity to tie up the famous sister-in-law Chen Fala.
p>
The highlight was that Chen Fala showed up at the mourning hall to prove her identity as the eldest mistress of the Xue family, but because Zhuge cleverly diverted the attention, it turned into a " "Two heroines competing for favor in the mourning hall".
Who appeared first and who came last from the mourning hall;
After the funeral, "the two women took different vows" The obvious discord between "Che" and "Che" was described in detail by the Hong Kong media, and the public watched with gusto.
After turning a funeral into a palace scheming battle for favor, Zhuge continued to seize the opportunity to consolidate the image of the "double heroine" of the wealthy family.
When the Hong Kong media broke the news of Fala Chen’s secret marriage, she did not acknowledge it, but Zhuge revealed to the media that the rumors were true.
He also took the opportunity to add that he and Second Young Master Xue paid their respects to Xue’s mother during the Chinese New Year, but Chen Fala did not do so, secretly saying that Chen Fala had no tutor.
After listening to the media report, Chen Fala angrily accused Ms. Zhuge of being too talkative, saying: I have been in this industry for so many years based on hard work. I don’t know why she does it!
Then, when the second son Xue and Zhuge Ziqi officially held their wedding, whether Chen Fala drank the tea offered by Zhuge became a hot topic again.
It must be said that Zhuge still knows what topics the public likes to read, and topics are where the traffic lies.
Fala Chen originally wanted to keep a low profile, but had to passively respond to this wealthy family fight, which became a plot that her mother-in-law's TVB used to allude to when filming dramas.
Having such a sister-in-law is of course disturbing, but more importantly, Xue Shiheng also failed to live up to expectations.
The "rich family" of the Xue family relies entirely on the legacy built by Xue Shiheng and Xue Jialin's father, Xue Jijie.
Xue Jijie started in the printing industry, and later entered the karaoke industry. NEWWAY, which was once popular in Hong Kong, Macao and Southeast Asia, was his family's industry.
As the eldest son, Xue Shiheng was originally the first heir, but due to his lack of business acumen, his performance disappointed his father, and his younger brother Xue Jialin took over.
Therefore, in the fight with Chen Fala, Zhuge Ziqi took the initiative to provoke and behaved arrogantly, relying on the confidence that his husband won the battle of successors.
In order to further consolidate his status as the "No. 1 Young Mistress", Zhuge seized every opportunity to boast that he was filial to his parents-in-law, and quickly became pregnant and gave birth to a child. He had done his best to compete for favor and superiority.
But she forgot one thing, the Qing Dynasty was dead. Women in the palace had to fight because they had nowhere else to go; modern women have a broader world, so why should they linger on boring palace fights?
In 2013, Fala Chen and Xue Shiheng divorced.
The Hong Kong media, who have always looked down on the superior and the inferior, kneeled down and licked the face of the "wealthy young woman" and immediately turned into a mockery of the "rich family's abandoned wife".
They described this divorce as Chen Fala's dream of being a wealthy family was broken, she was abandoned and driven away, and she was greedy for money.
The headline was "The Xue family confiscated the car building and Fala Chen beat her up because she was in despair", and it was even revealed that she was asking for 50 million yuan in alimony.
Chen Fala just smiled and clarified that there was no 50 million in alimony, and the monthly living expenses of 200,000 Hong Kong dollars were all earned by herself.
It was not until Xue Shiheng came out for an interview the year before last that everyone knew that it was Fala Chen who kicked out the wealthy family and initiated the divorce.
At that time, he thought that Fala Chen was just quarreling with him and just trying to calm her down, but he did not expect that she would never look back.
After discovering that Fala Chen really wanted a divorce, he tried hard to retain her, but in the end it was ineffective.
He said that after the divorce, he drank to drown his sorrows and did not know how to accept it. "The most difficult thing is to grow up."
From Xue Shiheng’s words, we can also know why Fala Chen decided to divorce.
She saw through the empty airs of the wealthy family and was fed up with the boring fights. She tried to point out the problem to her husband, but he regarded it as a quarrel and thought it would be better to coax her.
If husband and wife work together, they can always change for the better; but he is a young man who has neither the courage to face difficulties nor the ability to solve problems. .
Then why bother with the false magnificence of the "young lady"?
It is better to rely on your own hands to create a real and beautiful new world.
——I am the dividing line for the restart of life——
Chen Fala, who left a wealthy family, pressed the button at the age of 32 I pressed the reset button on my life and began to tear off the labels that had been attached to me.
Today’s beautiful waste that has no business ability can also be packaged into an enviable lying-win koi. The "old school" Fala Chen seriously feels that it is shameful to be a loser.
She was afraid to re-watch her previous works and found that "every character can be improved", and she only felt ashamed.
Fala Chen replied: "When miracles happen to me for ten consecutive years, apart from hard work and dedication, I can only be grateful."
In that year, she went to the United States to study.
This is not the kind of study that is done just to show off your talent, but actually admitted to the drama department of Juilliard School, which is ranked among the top in the United States.
There, she studied drama performance in a down-to-earth manner;
She also learned to direct and shoot her own movies.
To complete a stage play, it involves many tasks.
For example, designing costumes;
There are also stage special effects makeup;
She can even do the music and singing herself.
When Fala Chen graduated from Juilliard School and received her master's degree, her grades were all A's.
After so many years since her debut, she has finally learned to truly enjoy the stage and become a shining presence.
She is still beautiful, but her sweet appearance is no longer her only weapon.
Look at this homeless person living on the street. Can you recognize her?
This is the short film "People Coming and Going" that she directed and starred in. It won the short film award at the Sundance Film Festival.
Later, she starred in the independent film "The Wild Goose Flying" by female director Yuan Yuan for free. This film has won 7 international awards.
The famous American agency UTA signed Fala Chen to its label. The year before last, she also joined the cast of the HBO series "The Undoing" starring Nicole Kidman.
While having a colorful career, Fala Chen also found a new love.
Emmanuel Straschnov, who walked into the auditorium hand in hand with Fala Chen the year before last, is a talented and handsome man.
He graduated from Harvard University and served as a French diplomat in Japan and a special assistant to the CEO of Prada in the United States. Later, he started his own business and founded Bubble, a web and app production company.
Fala Chen once said in a media interview that the two are very compatible and have a tacit understanding, and there are always endless topics to talk about.
She also said that she was grateful for his company and support in pursuing her dreams. When she was discouraged because of obstacles in her audition, he would help analyze and enlighten her; her successful graduation was all thanks to him.
Now, as she approaches her 39th birthday, they have become a happy family of three.
When Fala Chen tore off the labels of beautiful waste and abandoned wife of a wealthy family one by one with her own hands, and rebuilt her wonderful life with her own hands, what was the "winner of the palace fight" busy with back then? ?
Ms. Zhuge, who once provoked and started wars, became the first young mistress as she wished after Chen Fala left the Xue family.
But without an opponent, how can you satisfy your drama addiction? It doesn't matter, as an outstanding graduate of the Drama Academy, she can act in a play by herself!
One moment she loses weight and admits to the marriage change with tears in her eyes, and the next moment she shows off her huge diamonds and denies the marriage change. Although she no longer has Fala Chen as her sister-in-law to tie up, she is still a hot topic. .
In 2019, Zhuge Ziqi suddenly announced that he had given birth to a second child, a son.
But three months ago she attended a public event with a flat belly, and a month ago she went skiing in Japan and ate sushi.
Before and after childbirth, she really didn’t look like a pregnant woman. So, is it really not surrogacy?
Although there are endless doubts about surrogacy, Zhuge insisted that his youngest son was born by himself or was born naturally.
No matter whether it was her own child or not, when she was still considering giving birth to a son as the way to win for a wealthy family, the crisis was already quietly ambush.
The Xue family’s once-famous karaoke empire has gradually failed to keep up with the trend of the times, and its business has continued to decline. It has also been sued in court for arrears of rent and copyright fees.
As the daughter-in-law of the Xue family, Zhuge Ziqi is still addicted to showing off famous brands and luxurious daily life.
Last year, the Xue family’s business crisis worsened due to the epidemic. Zhuge went to Canada to escape the epidemic, but he still lived a luxurious life, showing off his mansion where he can play basketball in the living room.
Due to debt collection, the Xue family had to sell the company headquarters building to pay for the debt, but Zhuge was still busy showing off sapphires and giant diamond rings.
Reminds me of a line from "The Grandmaster": In life, some people live to save face, and some live to live up to dignity.
She clings to the identity of wealthy lady because all her sense of superiority and existence comes from this face.
Chen Fala dared to throw away this superficial appearance and rely on her own hands and hard work to live the way she likes.
Women living in this world are always instilled with various prejudices and oppression.
People tell you that the older a woman gets, the more devalued she is. No matter how bad the marriage is, she must maintain it; women should not work too hard, and they will be happiest when marrying a rich man who can eat, drink, buy and buy.
In this public opinion environment, it takes courage to dare to throw away the envy of others and live the life you really want.
And Fala Chen’s story tells us, don’t be afraid, everything is worth it. When you learn to take the world into your own hands, you will find freedom, beauty, and infinite possibilities before you.
