Zhang ailing said that it is too early to become famous. Tang Wei was 27 years old when she met Lust, caution. This is an awkward age for an actress. If you don't become famous, you really don't have much hope.
So, she chose to act. As a result, she really became popular and succeeded in becoming an A-list actress. As a result, she was banned after the fire. And because of the three scenes in it, she was given the title of "gorgeous star".
In 2006, director Ang Lee decided to film Lust, caution. The hero chose Tony Leung a long time ago, but the choice of the heroine made him difficult.
Shu Qi was his first fancy. But Shu Qi refused, and she didn't want to take off the clothes she had managed to put back on again. The other actors I was looking for also turned him down.
Although Ang Lee is famous, the film has a lot of publicity. Still haven't found the right actress.
Just then, Ang Lee met Tang Wei. Tang Wei was supposed to send her resume for her boyfriend Tian Yu, but she was chosen by the director.
Tang Wei, who received the invitation, was contradictory. She was born in a scholarly family, her parents were intellectuals. Playing such a role was very difficult for them to accept.
But at this time, Tang Wei is already 27 years old, and there is not a role that can be played. After some ideological struggle, she chose to play Wang Jiazhi.
In fact, in the book, the relationship between the two is mentioned at once. In order to highlight the emotional changes between the two, the director specially added these three scenes.
I have to say, it is these three scenes that make this film and such a group of people. No matter how many years have passed, when it comes to the movie Lust, caution, many people's first reaction is these three scenes.
After the film was released in Hong Kong, it caused a great sensation. It is said that Carina Lau walked out of the cinema with a black face. The original version of the film could not be shown on the mainland.
So what most people see in the cinema is cut.
Many people wonder whether the leading actors and actresses in the film are really fake.
In the face of questions from the public, the creators of the film were all vague. Even the speeches made by the male and female actors in the interview made people suspect that they had really done it.
Tony Leung said: when the bodies collide with each other, it is like a real show.
Tang Wei said bluntly: we are just doing what we are doing to give birth to children.
Even some netizens said that it was absolutely true. I saw it all.
However, on the other hand, it is certainly impossible to make a fake show. After all, even if the scene is cleared, there is no audience at the scene, but there are still directors and photographers.
The words and deeds of the staff and actors are to satisfy the curiosity of the public and cooperate with the promotion of the film.
Sure enough, under a large number of renderings, the movie is becoming more and more popular. But it went too far and the movie was taken off the shelves. When it was shown again, the three scenes were also deleted.
So, those clips became a lot of people's computer treasures.
But for the director and the lead actor, the film made them winners and won numerous awards. The only one hurt was Tang Wei.
Because of this play, Tang Wei became famous as soon as she took off, and finally realized the feeling of overnight popularity. But soon after, she was banned.
Even if she won the Golden Horse Award for Best New Artist, she was still in a position to be filmed by wireless. The boyfriend who has been in love for many years also broke up.
In desperation, she chose to leave, went abroad alone, and was forced to be silent for many years.
Three years later, she won a film queen in South Korea with a film "late Autumn" and became a "goddess of literary films". Also harvested their own love, have a happy family.
In 2020, Tang Wei starred in the Korean film "The Resolution to Break Up," a film tailored for her. The director is her fan.
The screenwriter even threatened that I couldn't write it if it wasn't for Tang Wei.
For this drama, Tang Wei won one of Korea's three awards, the Green Dragon Award. And in Korea, she is the first foreigner ever to win this award.
Now Tang Wei, when people think of her, the first thing that comes to mind is Wang Jiazhi. But it doesn't matter anymore, because she has relied on her ability to put back on the clothes she once took off.
Sometimes choice is important, effort is more important.
