One evening 20 years ago, Hong Kong movie star Paul Chan jumped from the 24th floor of her residence in Jing'an District, Shanghai and ended her life at the age of 29, leaving only a suicide note with a few lines and her one-month-old child.
People often say that beauty is unlucky, but even so, Chen Baolian's life was too rough.
She is very charming on the screen and is the "dream lover" in the minds of countless people.
But in reality, she has never been able to find love in her life. Not only has she been regarded as a burden by her parents since she was a child, she has also struggled with relationships when she grows up. After many setbacks in life, she had no choice but to jump off the building to end her short but brilliant life.
Regarding Chen Baolian's unfortunate experience, many actors in the entertainment industry once said that they would take care of her children. Now twenty years have passed, How is the life of Chen Baolian's orphan now?
Did those so-called "friends in the circle" help?
Chen Baolian was born in Shanghai in 1973. She has been quarreling and scolding her parents since she could remember. Finally, when she was four years old, her parents chose to leave each other and live their own lives. But this well-behaved and lovely daughter Not favored by her parents, she had no choice but to be raised by her grandmother Wangyi .
Chen Baolian's grandmother Wang Yi is also a well-known actor , and has appeared in movies such as "Where Not to Meet" and "Sanmao Wandering".
Grandfather and grandson depend on each other, and although their life is difficult, it can be considered warm and ordinary. However, all this will be ruthlessly broken when she is 12 years old...
When Chen Baolian was 12 years old, her mother, whom she had not seen for many years, suddenly came to her door and asked for help. Taking her to live in Hong Kong, she thought that she could finally reunite with her mother and live happily together. She had never tasted the feeling of family since she was born.
Little did she know that her mother had incurred gambling debts and was invisible all day long. There were always people around. Door-to-door debt collection.
As the days passed, Chen Baolian became more and more beautiful. Mother Chen naturally made up her mind when she saw her daughter looking so outstanding.
At that time, when she had just graduated from junior high school and turned 15 years old, she was dragged by her mother to work as a model in a romantic place. At such a young age, she was in and out of romantic places all day long. Coupled with her tall figure and outstanding appearance, Chen Baolian was inevitably bullied often.
However, all this is nothing in the eyes of Mother Chen, who only regards her daughter as a money-making tool. The money her daughter earns in nightclubs can no longer meet her increasingly greedy demands.
Hong Kong in the 1980s and 1990s was experiencing a beauty pageant boom, and Chen Baolian was in the midst of a beauty pageant boom. She was forced by her mother to sign up for the Miss Asia beauty pageant.
It is worth mentioning that the winner of that beauty pageant was Wu Qili who later gave birth to Jackie Chan's "little dragon girl".
Although Chen Baolian did not place in the Asian sister election, she still attracted the attention of film and television company executives with her good appearance and figure.
At that time, the Hong Kong film industry was at its peak, and there were countless good films that were both well-received and well-received. Among them, Feng Yue films were enthusiastically sought after by the film market for their advantages of low cost and high profit.
Sensing the lucrative opportunity, Mother Chen could not let go of this opportunity to make a fortune, so she, greedy for money, secretly signed a contract with the film company on behalf of her underage daughter Chen Baolian.
At this time, Chen Baolian still fantasized about being able to make a name for herself as an actress, but when she entered the set, she realized that she was filming a "romantic film". She was still young and cried on the set. After learning that she would have to compensate for not cooperating, After receiving a large amount of liquidated damages, Chen Baolian could only choose to cooperate obediently.
Later, according to the staff on the set, Chen Baolian was often very resistant to physical contact during filming, and she always secretly shed tears after each filming. These painful experiences were too cruel for a little girl who was not yet an adult.The movie
was a huge success once it was released. Both the producer and Chen's mother made a lot of money. After that, Chen's mother even intensified her efforts to exploit her daughter. In 1993,
even took on 10 movies instead of Chen Baolian. The hard work and helplessness must have been involved. Only she herself knows.
Those days were very dark for Chen Baolian. At this time, the arrival of Mo Shaocong brought a glimmer of light to her gloomy days. The two fell in love because of the drama while filming the movie "Sword Slave". , the nourishment of love made them Chen Baolian's fragile heart was healed a little.
But she soon discovered that Mo Shaocong was naturally restless. After repeatedly discovering that her boyfriend was trying to do two things, she was heartbroken and chose to end the relationship.
The ruthless torture of fate did not make her sink. She began to actively try to transform. She hoped that she could get rid of her original label. Perhaps she also wanted to get rid of the shackles of her mother. She wanted to become a real actor.
In 1994, Pauline Chan seemed to have finally waited for the opportunity. At that time, Stephen Chow, who was preparing to film "Domestic Lingling Paint" , named Chen Pauline to play the role of the beautiful killer in the film. Fortunately, she did not let this hard-won opportunity slip away from her hands.
In the film, she wore a long red dress, sometimes sexy and charming, sometimes murderous, which left a deep impression on the audience.
She thought she could complete her transformation with this film, but then she had a physical problem.
It turns out that Chen Baolian suffered from physical illness due to long-term filming of romantic movies, so she had no choice but to temporarily stop working to recuperate.
It was also during this period that Taiwanese businessman Huang Renzhong became obsessed with Chen Baolian through the videos she had shot. You must know that Huang Renzhong was known as the "Taiwan Stock King" at that time, and his net worth was once as high as tens of billions.
Soon, the two met at a drinking party, and Huang Renzhong launched an aggressive pursuit of her.
At first, Chen Baolian was unmoved by the temptation of money, but slowly she felt the long-lost consideration and warmth in this man who was many years older than herself.
Nothing is more important to her than a sense of security, not to mention that she has suffered from the pain and torture brought by her original family since she was a child.
The mother who originally thought she would love her only sees herself as a cash cow. Therefore, , who desperately needed a sense of security, was gradually moved by Huang Renzhong's sweet words and recognized him as her godfather.
Chen Baolian, who thought she was expected to transform but was recuperating due to illness, also received Huang Renzhong's promise to help her in her career.
Under his matchmaking, Chen Baolian starred in works such as " Nerve Knife and Flying Cat ". However, the trend in the entertainment industry has always been changing rapidly.
After half a year of cultivation, she has gradually been forgotten by the market, so Huang Renzhong became a career again. She was the only one to rely on when she was hit.
In the beginning, Huang Renzhong was very obedient to her, pampering her no matter what trouble she caused, but even though Chen Baolian was deeply devoted to her "godfather".
Huang Ren's amorous habits will not change because of her. Feeling that she is being gradually left out, her temperament changes drastically and she keeps causing various troubles: drinking, racing and even fighting...
It seems that she does It turns out that everything he did was to win the attention of the one he loved. Seeing that the things Chen Baolian did became more and more outrageous, Huang Renzhong could only make up his mind to drive her out of the mansion.
Suffering from multiple blows, she was even nicknamed one of the "Four Epilepsy Kings" by the media due to drug dependence and mental reasons...
Perhaps it was because of the lack of love all along that Chen Baolian's constant love became the way to heal herself. In this way, the men around me changed again and again, but I still couldn't find the one who truly loved me.
In 2002, she unexpectedly became pregnant and gave birth to her son in Shanghai. After unsuccessfully contacting Huang Renzhong, she was overwhelmed and hurriedly jumped off the building and died after leaving a few suicide notes. In addition to mentioning several close friends in the industry,
's suicide note also remembered his "godfather" Huang Renzhong.
After her death, the ownership of the child became the biggest issue.
"Godfather" Huang Renzhong tried his best to distance himself from the child. Chen Baolian's mother also refused to raise her grandson due to financial problems.
Many celebrities in the circle, such as Eric Tsang , etc., have publicly expressed their willingness to help take care of her orphans, but when the storm subsided, the child's problem was still unresolved.
was finally adopted by Faye Wong 's agent Qiu Likuan and raised her to this day . Now Chen Baolian's child has been named Qiu Huangyi after Qiu Likuan. The two have a very good relationship as mother and son.
Qiu Huangyi has been well educated by his adoptive mother since he was a child. Every year on his birthday, he posts a message on social platforms to thank his two mothers . It can be seen between the lines that Qiu Huangyi has known gratitude and filial piety since he was a child.
He was admitted to university with excellent results last year. He was very confident in his appearance and revealed that he had the idea of entering the entertainment industry.
Considering the tragic situation of his biological mother Chen Baolian, Qiu Likuan was opposed to it at first. , but she couldn't resist her son's growing interest in acting and had no choice but to let it go.
Chen Baolian, who has lacked family affection since childhood, was ruthlessly treated by her mother when she grew up. All kinds of experiences created her character of extremely longing for love, and it was this character that led to her tragic ending.
Qiu Huangyi is now 20 years old. He is tall, handsome and sunny. Although he has never met his biological father and mother,
but unlike his mother Chen Baolian, he has lived in a loving family since he was a child. I believe that if Chen Baolian will definitely be very pleased to see her son look like now.
