In the starry sky of the entertainment industry, she was once a shining child star. At the age of 13, with her excellent performance in country people, she won the child star award of that year, and her star journey was brilliant. Then, the popularity of dramas such as "Shintao Taro" and "Fantasy Boy" made her famous in Hong Kong as a martial arts actress.
However, at the height of her career, a sudden change pushed her into the abyss. Hong Kong in that era was in social turmoil and public order chaos. Even the stars under the spotlight were hard to escape. Liu Jialing, Bai Bingbing and other names have left indelible scars due to the confrontation with the dark forces. And she, too, could not escape this nightmare.
It was a sunny day, but she encountered the darkest moment of her life. Kidnapped by three gangsters, she had to hand over all her belongings in order to save her life. However, the surrender of the money did not attract the pity of the gangsters, and she was still treated unspeakably.
That experience became a shadow that could never be erased in her life. She had tried to paralyze herself with her work, but those horrible memories always came with her in the dead of night. She had thought of seeking help from a psychiatrist, but her fear and sense of shame held her back.
As time passed, when she stood in front of the public again, although her smile was still bright, the vicissitudes in her eyes were hard to hide. She told the world in her own way: I am still here, I am still trying to get out of the shadows.
So, what exactly happened to her during the time she was kidnapped?
Startling in the suburbs: inside revelation of the kidnapping of an actress
It was an eventful time in 1997. First, the kidnapping of Bai Bingbing's daughter made the city full of wind and rain, and people were in a panic. But who would have thought that this limelight is not over, another actress encountered the same nightmare.
In November of that year, when it was getting late, she had just finished a day of filming and dragged her tired body ready to go home. Suddenly, several shadows sprang out, stuffed her into the car and left. Fellow scriptwriters were not spared and were taken away together.
The car turned around and finally stopped in a desolate place where ghosts could not be seen. The kidnappers were impatient to ask for her bank password, and she thought, "lose money to get rid of the disaster, so tell the truth."
The kidnapper was not so easy to fool, so he took her directly to withdraw the money. And left an accomplice to keep an eye on the screenwriter for fear that the cooked duck might fly. When she got to the bank, she had to withdraw the money. The kidnapper who got the money seemed more satisfied and took her back to the wilderness.
In fact, she had the idea of running away on the way, but when she thought that the writer was still in their hands, she had no choice but to swallow it. But who knows that it is not enough for these kidnappers to see the money, and the intention is even more terrible.
The big men put their hands on her and tortured her almost to death. This is not over, they also frantically forced her and the screenwriter to take some ugly pictures.
After doing these unscrupulous things, the kidnappers ran away with the money contentedly. Not many people knew about this, and she could only break her teeth and bear it silently.
I thought that time could heal all wounds, but who knew that this matter was still known by the producer. Instead of sympathizing with her plight, the producer demanded that she go public with it to create hype for the new show.
This is undoubtedly sprinkling salt on her wound! Of course she didn't want to, but the producer pressed for it. During that time, she washed her face with tears and even wanted to die.
From poor girl to screen star, her glory and shadow
She was born in a poor family with many brothers and sisters, and the burden of life for the seven people was all on her father's shoulders. In order to lighten the burden on her family, she was sent to drama school by her father when she was just eight years old. At that time, she was too young to understand what it meant, but she just vaguely felt that from then on, the road home had become so far away.
During her ten years in drama school, she was like a tenacious grass, growing hard in a difficult environment. She was well aware of her father's expectations and her responsibility, so she turned her yearning for home into a driving force for learning. She studied hard and constantly improved herself, looking forward to the day when she could shine on the stage.
At the age of 12, she appeared in "Country People" and became famous for her outstanding performance. She was supposed to be coquettish in her parents 'arms, but she had already started her acting career.
Her success let her family see hope, but also let her bear a heavier burden.
Her mother was a gambler, and the hole that the family seemed to never fill made her feel desperate. However, she did not give up, she chose to face it bravely.
In order to make money, she began to take over the play crazily, working day and night. Her efforts were not in vain. She created many classics and became a hot star at that time.
In 1986, at the age of 21, she stunned the audience again with the new peach taro, and her acting skills were recognized by the public. However, there is also a crisis behind success. Her acting path is limited to a certain type, which makes her feel confused and confused. However, she did not stop, but moved on, looking for breakthroughs in similar roles.
Her persistence and efforts made her more popular with the audience, and her name began to be compared with superstars such as Lin Qingxia. However, at the height of her career, a sudden "kidnapping" completely changed her fate.
The terrible experience at that time exhausted her physically and mentally, and she had to leave the stage temporarily to heal those invisible wounds. When she returned to the audience, although her smile was still bright, her eyes were not as bright as they used to be.
Coming out of the shadow, she reshaped the stage of life with courage
In a program full of warmth, she met Bai Bingbing, who also experienced ups and downs. Two women who had been on the cusp of entertainment found resonance in mutual comfort. At that moment, tears welled up in her eyes, and she finally mustered up the courage to tell the whole story of her kidnapping nightmare.
Her confession is not only for herself, but also to inspire girls who are struggling in difficulties. She told them with her own experience: life is paramount, and when necessary, it is not a bad thing to give up some things outside the body. More importantly, we should learn to protect ourselves and stand up bravely to testify against those who have done a lot of evil.
In 2022, at the age of 57, she returned to the public eye and regained her glory on the stage of the "Golden Age". Her appearance, like a wave of memories, evokes the childhood memories of countless viewers. People marvel at her tenacity and courage, and some people compare her photos with those of the past, lamenting the passage of time and the twilight of beauty.
However, the years did not defeat her, but made her stronger. Although she is still single, the past is no longer the shadow of her life. She told us in her own way that a person can live a wonderful life.
No one in this world should be defined by adversity. In the face of injury, courage to stand up is a choice; and choosing to start again is a kind of courage. She tells us with her own story: no matter how much wind and rain we experience, we must firmly believe that sunshine always comes after wind and rain.
Now, the sun is just right, and we wish this brave woman such a bright future. At the same time, I also hope that all the girls who are struggling in difficulties can find their own sky and fly bravely.
