Behind the glamorous entertainment circle, there are always some little-known joys and sorrows hidden. Ma Junwei, this name has been shining on countless screens, but it has also been dimmed by a period of deep grief. His mother's death had become an inconsolable wound in his heart, and self-blame and guilt poured in like a tide, pushing him into the abyss of depression.
However, life never stops because of personal stagnation. Just when people thought he was going to sink, Ma Junwei broke free from the shackles of his heart with amazing perseverance and ushered in a magnificent turn.
He chose to get out of the haze and go to public office to illuminate the lives of more people in his own way. His transformation, like a beam of light in the fog, aroused people's curiosity and guess: what kind of mental journey did Ma Junwei go through?
The counterattack life from the poor teenager to the screen emperor
In the bustling land of Hong Kong, Ma Junwei's childhood seemed out of place with the bright lights and wine. He was born in a simple family, his parents are both hands-on labourers, every penny is soaked in their sweat. However, fate did not care much for the family, and my mother's nasopharyngeal cancer made the already cash-strapped family even worse.
At the age of 14, the heavy pressure of life forced Ma Junwei to leave campus and enter society early. He has worked as a salesman and a librarian, and every job reveals his helplessness and struggle for life. But he knows very well that such a life is not a long-term solution, and he needs to find a breakthrough to change his destiny.
In 1993, by chance, Ma Junwei participated in the Pioneer Laser Karaoke Competition. He won the third place by virtue of his excellent performance, and was chosen by Warner Records and signed up as a singer. Just when he thought he finally saw a glimmer of hope, he was strongly resisted by his predecessors because of the company's publicity strategy.
During that time, Ma Junwei's life was plunged into unprecedented darkness. But at this time, the emergence of Zeng Lizhen, a senior TVB executive, brought him a glimmer of life. She took a fancy to Ma Junwei's potential and decided to give him a chance. As a result, Ma Junwei successfully signed a contract with TVB and began his acting career.
With the support of the company, he starred in Emperor Kangxi in The Deer and the Cauldron. This role is a huge challenge for him because he has never been exposed to acting.
However, Ma Junwei did not shrink back. He proved his worth with his own efforts and sweat. His performance was recognized by the audience and gave him a foothold in the entertainment industry.
The magnificent film and television superstar is more sincere after the storm.
When the popular "Deer Ding Ji" shines on the big screen, his acting skills are like bright stars, conquering the hearts of countless audiences. It was this work that pushed him to the peak of his acting career and became an indelible classic in people's hearts.
As time flies, when the younger generation Zhang Yishan challenged this classic, he encountered unprecedented doubts. The image is quite different from the expectations of the audience. Zhang Yishan is caught in a whirlpool of public opinion.
At the height of the storm, he chose to come forward to explain and encourage the younger generation. His responsibility and sincerity let people see the warmth rarely seen in the entertainment industry.
Perhaps in the eyes of the public, they do not have much in common. However, in his heart, the love and support for future generations is self-evident. This selfless contribution made people marvel at his character.
When Zeng Lizhen lost the internal struggle, he was also affected. However, in this difficult time, he did not choose to complain and blame, but stood firmly by the other side. In the face of the media, he always defended each other, showing tolerance and magnanimity.
The tenacity behind the screen and the freshness in the aroma of coffee
Who would have thought that Ma Junwei, who always wore a warm smile in front of the screen, had experienced the heavy blows of life? At the age of 28, his mother's death plunged him into deep remorse because he was the one who persuaded his family to let his mother undergo surgery.
Later, his sister's breast cancer, his nephew's disease followed, and the pressure of life almost crushed him, once plunging him into depression.
But Ma Junwei did not choose to sink. He chose to use his work to heal himself and earn the cost of treatment for his relatives. At that time, behind his smile on the screen was countless clenched teeth and tears in the middle of the night. But it was this experience that made him cherish life more and made him more aware of his responsibilities.
After recovering, Ma Junwei began his new life. He likes coffee, not only drinking, but also research. In order to gain a better understanding of the culture and precautions of coffee, he even obtained a professional barista license. This hobby not only made him find the joy of life, but also made him meet more like-minded friends.
After his contract with TVB expired, Ma Junwei set up his own studio and began to try more possibilities. His stage play "accidental Xu Zhimo", which he directed and acted by himself, made him gain the unanimous praise of the audience and the recognition of the industry. This play not only represents Hong Kong's tour in the mainland, but also becomes one of his masterpieces.
At the age of 47, Ma Junwei made a decision that surprised everyone-- to go to Peking University's Guanghua School of Management for further study. Instead of being satisfied with his achievements, he chose to enrich himself with study.
The round trip between Hong Kong and Peking University at least once a month and the serious online lessons during the epidemic all show that he takes his studies seriously and persistently. Two years later, he successfully passed the defense and achieved the promotion of his academic qualifications.
Subsequently, Ma Junwei accepted the official invitation of Hong Kong to serve on the Performing Arts Select Committee of the Hong Kong Arts Development Council. Although there is no salary for the job, he enjoys it.
Because he knows that this is not a simple job offer, but a recognition of his efforts and achievements in show business over the years.
