Wang Jie, formerly known as Wang Dawei, was born in Taiwan Province in 1962, but Wang Jie moved to Hong Kong with his parents when he was very young. Wang Jie's father Wang Xia and mother Xu Yu are both actors in Shaw Brothers, so Wang Jie can be regarded as a well-deserved second generation star. Wang Jie has four brothers and sisters. Due to his parents' relationship, Wang Jie grew up in Shaw Brothers' movie theaters. He began to star in movies when he was 3 years old, becoming the youngest child actor at that time. Wang Jie likes riding motorcycles very much. He often secretly rides Liu Xiuxian's motorcycle on the set. He often continues to ride it after being criticized. At that time, Wang Jie was happy and carefree, but such happy times did not last. how long. When Wang Jie was 12 years old, his parents divorced due to emotional discord. After his parents divorced, Wang Jie was sent to Sanyu Academy in Hong Kong like an orphan. Rather than going to study, he was abandoned. After that, his parents never took care of him, and they didn't even pay him tuition. Fortunately, Wang Jie relied on his work-study program and the help of teachers and classmates to continue his studies.
Perhaps it was precisely because of these experiences as a child that Wang Jie became very sad and precocious at a young age. The reason why Wang Jie is engaged in music is also due to a Romanian music teacher. At that time, Wang Jie was discovered to have musical talent when he was in school. Under the guidance of the teacher, Wang Jie began to create music. When Wang Jie was 14 years old, , met his first love, Annie. Annie was a mixed-race child who was very beautiful. However, she unfortunately died in a car accident on her way back to China. Wang Jie also composed a song specially for Annie.
Not only that, at that time Wang Jie also composed the song "The Baby Is Crying" because he missed his parents, and later wrote "Mom Take Me Away". In Wang Jie's heart, he missed him extremely His parents, however, both chose to remarry after their divorce. No one cared about him, and no one cared about him. Wang Jie could only bury this longing in his heart, or write it in his own songs. At the age of 17, Wang Jie came to Taiwan alone. Although Wang Jie harbored a musical dream, he had to meet Bole who appreciated him. When he first arrived in Taiwan, he had worked various odd jobs, and when he was working as a coach at the skating rink, he met a girl. This girl was pure and beautiful, and Wang Jie fell in love with her at first sight. One day, the girl was bullied by many gangsters on her way home. When Wang Jie saw this, he heroically saved the girl. He fought with seven people, and finally took the girl away on a motorcycle.
Then the two came to Wang Jie's rental house, where they experienced the first time in their lives as young and inexperienced people. At that time, Wang Jie was only 17 years old, and the girl was only 17 years old. 15 years old. The girl found out she was pregnant and later gave birth to a daughter. When she was 19 years old, Wang Jie used his only savings to hold a crude wedding for her under the overpass. She did not dislike Wang Jie's poverty, but never left him. However, things were unpredictable, and this marriage, which Wang Jie would never forget, ended in a hurry after only a few months. It turned out that Wang Jie did not have a Taiwan ID card. In order to live in Taiwan for a long time, Wang Jie thought of serving in the military. After that, Wang Jie entrusted his wife and daughter to the care of his mother. However, he did not expect that when Wang Jie returned from military service, his wife But he left him long ago, leaving only his young daughter behind. It turns out that during Wang Jie's absence, his mother was not kind to his wife, and after she couldn't bear it anymore, his wife finally chose to separate. Wang Jie searched everywhere at that time, but could not find his wife. He originally wanted to give his wife and daughter a better life, but he did not expect that his marriage was gone and he became a single father.
At that time, Wang Jie had no source of income. In order to take good care of his daughter, he worked as a courier, truck driver, waiter, and even a stuntman. When he was most tired, he worked four jobs a day. Despite this, the life of father and daughter is still very poor. They can't even afford a bowl of noodles. They can only buy one braised egg and leave it to his daughter. In Wang Jie's heart, he always feels that he owes him daughter. But soon, Wang Jie's life took a turn for the better.
When Wang Jie was in poverty, he couldn't even afford the money for his daughter's hospitalization. Desperate, Wang Jie once went to Rolling Stone Records, but was rejected. However, Li Shixian, the producer of Rolling Stone Records, noticed Wang Jie's talent. He not only gave Wang Jie 20,000 yuan to sell the songs Wang Jie wrote to him, but also introduced Wang Jie to Li Shouguan, who met Bole. Wang Jie has just begun to truly rise in the music industry.
Wang Jie first gave the song he wrote to Li Shouquan through a friend. After listening to it, Li Shouquan felt that Wang Jie's voice was very vicissitudes of life, and also had a strong sense of loss, so he directly approached Wang Jie for cooperation, and Wang Jie also I successfully participated in UFO Records. After joining the record company, the first album he released was "A Game, a Dream", which made Wang Jie popular.
At that time, no one in the company was optimistic about Wang Jie, who had just debuted. Many colleagues asked him how many albums he expected to sell. Wang Jie replied at least 300,000. You must know that the most popular records at the time could not reach this number. Therefore, Wang Jie was ridiculed by everyone and gave him the nickname "Three Hundred Thousand". But what I didn't expect was that the album was very popular as soon as it was released, and eventually sold about 18 million copies in Asia. Even Li Zongsheng, the producer of Rolling Stone at the time, couldn't believe it. Later, "A Game, a Dream" also released a MV, and the heroine was Maggie Cheung.

After becoming popular, Wang Jie released "Forgot You Forgot Me". In just two weeks, the sales volume reached 400,000 copies. In 2014, it exceeded 3.5 million copies.

At this time, Zhang Jie already dominated the Hong Kong music scene, and even On the same level as Alan Tam and Leslie Cheung, even the four rising kings at that time could not compare with them.
How popular was Wang Jie at that time? Just look at what he once said. Wang Jie said that when he was most popular, the combined income of the four kings was not more than half of his own. This is not Wang Jie's arrogance. You must know that Wang Jie's income from an album at that time was 45 yuan, and the first album alone sold 18 million yuan. You can understand what he meant by doing the math. At that time, Wang Jie was raising his daughter alone, and his daughter had told Wang Jie more than once that she wanted to find her mother. After Wang Jie became famous, he also looked for his wife again, but unfortunately his wife did not want to meet him. Wang Jie met his wife's family, and once sent a house and a check through his wife's sister and brother, but they did not accept it and left a message to Wang Jie: "No matter how poor we are, we don't need anything from you." One cent and one dime."
In 1993, when Wang Jie's career was booming, he met his second wife Mo Qiwen. Mo Qiwen was a model and they met while filming the MV. After getting married, the two were very loving at first. Mo Qiwen also gave birth to a son for Wang Jie. However, unfortunately, the marriage ended in divorce after four years. Moreover, during the divorce, the wife also obtained custody of her son. After the divorce, Mo Qiwen took her son away, and the father and son never saw each other again.
After the divorce, Wang Jie not only could not see his son, but also rarely met Mo Qiwen. Until many years later, when Wang Jie participated in a program, Mo Qiwen He sent recorded wishes, but Wang Jie said that he had not seen her for many years and was very unfamiliar with this voice. Moreover, Wang Jie once doubted whether his son was his own, because he was injured when he was a stuntman, and the doctor said that the possibility of having children in the future was very small, and Wang Jie also felt that his son looked nothing like himself.
Both his wives left him, and the only one left by his side was his daughter. However, when the daughter grew up, she became a stewardess and would occasionally come to see her father. Later, after the daughter got married, she happily broke up with Wang Jie. Contacted. The reason is that there were frequent negative news about Wang Jie at that time, whether true or false. At this time, Wang Jie's wife was separated and his love life was in a state of confusion. In 1999, Wang Jie officially signed a contract with Emperor Entertainment and became an artist under Emperor Entertainment. What Emperor Company is best at is packaging artists, and Wang Jie, who has always been maverick, had conflicts with Emperor because of some things. Unbelievably, negative news about Wang Jie came out frequently. In Wang Jie's words, even if he stayed at home, he would Some people fabricate scandals out of thin air. They don't need to verify it. They can create scandals for artists by just relying on their own imagination.
In 2005, an unsuspecting Wang Jie accepted a drink from an assistant. After drinking it, his neck and face became very swollen that day. Later, the doctor informed Wang Jie that the drink was It contained chemicals. Although his life was saved in the end, his throat was damaged. Afterwards, Wang Jie broke the news many times that he knew who the murderer was behind the scenes, but he did not choose to call the police because instead of arresting him, it would be better to let him know who he knew and make this person feel guilty for a lifetime. As for the person who poisoned Wang Jie, everyone has a lot of opinions. Some people guess it is Xie and some people guess it is Zhang. However, no one knows who the real murderer is.
