In 1988, 32-year-old Zhang Fengyi married 28-year-old Lu Liping. Within five months of their marriage, they gave birth to their precious son Zhang Boyu.
On the surface, the marriage between the two was caused by drama, but in fact, it was not as simple as people imagined.
Because the two had been married for less than three years, they walked into the Civil Affairs Bureau early and received the second little red book in their lives, divorce certificate .
According to convention, after their divorce, their son Zhang Boyu should live with Zhang Fengyi, but Zhang Fengyi did not fight for his son's custody rights, and his son naturally followed his mother Lu Liping. After
, Zhang Fengyi devoted himself to developing his acting career and married a beautiful wife who was 14 years younger. However, he missed many wonderful moments in his son's growth.
Even Zhang Fengyi, a father, did not attend the wedding of his son Zhang Boyu.
So much so that Zhang Boyu once wrote in his circle of friends: "Fortunate people are healed by childhood throughout their lives, and unfortunate people are healed by childhood throughout their lives."
Zhang Boyu's meaning is very obvious. The divorce of his parents gave him It caused a lot of internal damage, and the relationship between him and his father was indeed not good.

Chen Kaige once commented on Zhang Fengyi: "He is a real man who is the same on the outside and on the outside."
In fact, Zhang Fengyi is indeed worthy of such praise from Director Chen, because he has been praised by Director Chen for 42 years since his debut. He is a complete veteran actor.
He has a simple and stubborn face and a strong body. With this "tough guy" image, he has played countless historical figures.
From Jiang Daya to Cao Cao, then to Ying Zheng, Li Shimin , and Sha Ruijin in modern dramas, all of them are heroic and upright, showing themselves as "tough guys".
He played the essence of each character, sometimes domineering, sometimes majestic, sometimes brave and resourceful, basically acting the way he acted.
It is precisely because of Zhang Fengyi's superb acting skills that he has made great achievements in his acting career.
But in fact, it was only after he met Lu Liping that his acting career went smoothly.
Before that, he was in a state of embarrassment, but Lu Liping was already the Golden Rooster Queen in the film and television industry.
You must know that Lu Liping's starting point is relatively high. She is an authentic Beijinger. Her parents are both well-educated. One works in the Academy of Social Sciences and the other works in a hospital.
Among the three Lu Liping siblings, she was the only one born as a girl, so she was deeply loved by her parents and developed a willful temperament.
But Zhang Fengyi is different. He was born in an ordinary family in Yunnan, and he had to fight for everything by himself from childhood to adulthood.
Unfortunately, he was not interested in reading, so he dropped out of junior high school. In order to gain a survival skill, he went to the local art troupe.
stayed in the art troupe for six years and learned a lot of basic knowledge in acting. Later, relying on these acting skills, Zhang Fengyi successfully entered the Beijing Film Academy and embarked on the path of acting.
With no background, no resources, and no connections, it was not easy to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry. Therefore, after graduating from Nortel , Zhang Fengyi's career as an actor was not very smooth.
In those years, Zhang Fengyi's best role was the role of Xiangzi in the movie "Camel Xiangzi", but this did not bring him much fame and fortune.
Although he has since appeared in film and television dramas such as " Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou ", "The Road", "Man in the Sea", " Magic Land ", he is still unknown in the industry.
To put it bluntly, at that time, he had no house and no money in Beijing. Apart from being handsome, the rest was not worth mentioning, let alone that any girl would be willing to marry him.
But Lu Liping is different. After graduating from China Theater Company , she was assigned to Shanghai Film Studio . She then starred in Zhang Yimou in "Old Well" and became famous instantly.
Lu Liping, who was at the peak of her acting career, met Zhang Fengyi when she turned around. She was attracted by his handsomeness and started a good drama of women chasing men.

In 1988, the two became acquainted after starring in " Dragon Year Police Officer ". During the filming process, Lu Liping made secret glances at Lao Zhang many times.
Faced with the ambiguous hints from the beautiful woman, Lao Zhang, who was already 32 years old, could not withstand such temptation, so he fell into Lu Liping's passionate embrace.
Before the filming was finished, Lu Liping got the "Easter Egg", so as soon as the filming was finished, the two of them hurriedly went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the little red book.
At that time, Lao Zhang's pocket was not rich. In order to make the wedding a success, Lu Liping's parents helped a lot, but even so, Lu Liping was still as happy as a child.
Because in her opinion, life is already perfect if she can marry the down-to-earth and handsome Comrade Lao Zhang.
After getting married, Lu Liping was at the peak of her career. In order to give birth to a son for Lao Zhang, she voluntarily gave up her acting career and devoted herself to raising her husband and raising children at home.
In order to support his family, Lao Zhang often leaves early and comes home late when filming, and is even away from home for several months. Even during Lu Liping's confinement period, Lao Zhang was hardly seen.
During that time, Lu Liping had to take care of the housework, take care of the elderly at home, and take care of her young son. At the end of the day, it was even harder than going out to film.
What's even more uncomfortable is that all she has done is not recognized by Lao Zhang. Every time Lao Zhang comes home, he either dislikes the mess or the dirty house.
Especially when he saw Lu Liping's slovenly appearance, he complained non-stop. The disgust on his face made the passion between them no longer exist.
For this reason, Lu Liping felt very aggrieved. She must know how hard it is to take care of young children. Once a woman becomes a mother, how can she still be as delicate as when she was a girl.
A lot of pain, Lu Liping did not dare to tell Lao Zhang how much she hoped that Lao Zhang could spend more time at home, but every time Lao Zhang would impatiently say: "What will we eat at home if I don't do it?"
As she grows older, Zhang's career is getting better and better, the distance between the two is getting wider and wider, and his dislike of Lu Liping is getting stronger and stronger.
In the end, Lu Liping, who had been pampered since she was a child, could no longer bear it, so the two often quarreled until their relationship broke down and they broke off.
When their son Zhang Boyu was two years old, the marriage between Lao Zhang and Lu Liping also came to an end. Instead of tormenting each other in life, it was better to let go of each other and give each other freedom.
In 1991, the marriage of this golden boy and girl group, which was favored by the outside world, lasted less than three years and ended hastily.

After the divorce, Lao Zhang did not fight for the custody rights of his son. In his opinion, his son was still young and needed his mother's care, and he only needed to visit his son every once in a while.
In fact, in order to develop his own career at that time, Lao Zhang's son following him was a "burden". It would be better to help Lu Liping.
Lu Liping on the other side was actually not having an easy time. Now that she was single, in order to make ends meet, she had to return to filming, but because her son had no one to take care of her, Zhang Boyu had to follow her into the group life.
During that time, she always felt sorry for her son and did not give him a complete family. She was worried that her son would be discriminated against, and she did not want her son to be looked down upon.
So she chose to work hard for her career. Fortunately, she was lucky enough to win the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Supporting Actress again with the movie "Youth Without Regrets".
Later, with the help of Ge You brother, she participated in the classic sitcom "The Story of the Editorial Department ". In the play, she played a female editor. She was not only fashionable, capable and confident, but also often quarreled with Ge You. Provides a lot of laughs.
With this comedy, Lu Liping won the Feitian Award Best Actress in one fell swoop, and overnight she became a well-known actress both inside and outside the industry.
's mother became a famous star at home and abroad, which made little Zhang Boyu feel proud in his heart, but this pride disappeared soon after.
Because his father, Zhang Fengyi, married him a beautiful little stepmother less than two years after divorcing his mother, Zhang Boyu immediately felt abandoned.
It is not an exaggeration to say that his stepmother is as beautiful as a flower. Her name is Huo Fan, she is 14 years younger than Lao Zhang, and she is a dance teacher at Beiwu..
This sister is a girl from the south of the Yangtze River. She is as tender as water, and has an outstanding figure and temperament. It is said that she also had a failed marriage and has a daughter.
The two met through a friend's introduction. After only a year of knowing each other, they quickly obtained the marriage certificate and started their second marriage in their lives.
Because Lao Zhang has started a new family and is busy with his career, he rarely has time to spend time with his son Zhang Boyu. This is the main reason why Zhang Boyu feels abandoned.
Especially after Lao Zhang came back from Cannes Film Festival , he mentioned his current wife Huo Fan and stepdaughter many times in interviews, and most of his words were complimentary.
But Lao Zhang didn’t mention a word about his son Zhang Boyu. After Zhang Boyu heard this, the misunderstanding in his heart became deeper and deeper. During that time, when Lao Zhang visited him when he had time, he almost ignored him. .
At the beginning, Lao Zhang would use toys and other things to make his son happy, but later his straight character made him lose his patience and stopped trying to make his son happy.
Gradually, the gap between father and son became deeper and deeper. Until the appearance of Sun Dapao and Sun Haiying, this gap finally became irreconcilable.

In order to give her son a complete family, Lu Liping met football commentator Tao Wei when she went to watch football abroad in 1996.
Because Zhang Boyu is interested in football, he and Tao Wei also have many common topics, and then there is an ambiguity between Lu Liping and Tao Wei.
The two got married in 1999 after three years of dating. However, soon after their marriage, their personality conflicts began to show up, and they often quarreled.
In the end, this marriage only lasted for two years, and Lu Liping became single again, and continued to pursue her own happiness on the road of hunting for beauty.
This year, when Lu Liping was filming " Passionate Years", she fell in love with Sun Haiying, the male lead in the drama, and they seamlessly connected and entered the palace of marriage again.
On the wedding day, Lu Liping asked Sun Dapao affectionately: "Do you dislike me for having a son?"
Sun Dapao said without thinking: "Even if you have ten sons, I still love you."
In fact, Sun Dapao After marrying Lu Liping, he not only loved Lu Liping with his sincerity, but also gave Zhang Boyu endless fatherly love.
He raised Zhang Boyu as his own son, gave him endless care and attention, and also gave him the freedom and respect to grow up.
When Zhang Boyu graduated from junior high school, he wanted to go to his mother's performing arts school to study acting, and he wanted to enter the entertainment industry for development.
When faced with the first choice in his life, although Zhang Boyu hated his father Zhang Fengyi in his heart, he still called Lao Zhang.
What he didn't expect was that Lao Zhang not only did not support him, but also sarcastically mocked him on the phone, saying that his son had image problems and was not suitable for entering the entertainment industry at all.
At the end of the call, Lao Zhang said directly to his son into the phone: "If you make such a choice, don't contact me again, and don't expect me to introduce resources to you."
From Lao Zhang's words, it is obvious It can be seen that he hates that iron cannot become steel. He wants his son Zhang Boyu to enter college and receive higher education, instead of entering the entertainment industry at a young age.
Because he knows how difficult it is for him to reach this point before finishing junior high school, and he does not want his son to follow his own old path.
In fact, as a father, Lao Zhang’s mood is understandable, but his way of persuading his son is biased.
On the contrary, stepfather Sun Dapao is different. His education method is exactly the opposite of that of Lao Zhang. Zhang Boyu likes to play ball, and Sun Dapao accompanies him to play.
Zhang Boyu doesn't pay attention to hygiene when playing basketball and just wipes sweat with dirty hands. Sun Dapao calls him a man's behavior, but Lao Zhang only scolds him loudly.
He wants to be an actor, and Sun Dapao also supports him as always. In his opinion, if he has three hundred and sixty skills, he will be the best at it. As long as he studies well, he is still a talent.
In fact, Sun Dapao's education method has indeed seen results. Zhang Boyu, who originally hated reading, picked up textbooks again and was admitted to the Chinese Opera with his own ability. When
graduated from Chinese drama, Sun Dapao once again played the role of a father and went to school with Lu Liping to attend the graduation ceremony of his son Zhang Boyu.
But Lao Zhang decisively refused, not giving any face to his biological son, which once again chilled Zhang Boyu.
After graduating from Chinese drama, Zhang Boyu officially entered the entertainment industry, but being in the entertainment industry is not as simple as he imagined. It will not work if you have only one passion.
At this time, Sun Dapao once again played the role of a loving father. Not only did he get him the resources of "Legend of Chu and Han ", he also got him to directly participate in the variety show "Traveling with Parents".
In the show, he even called Lao Sun daddy. The deep love between father and son was clear at a glance. However, halfway through the show, he was ridiculed by Lao Zhang's friends as "recognizing a thief as his father."
On Lao Zhang’s side, after his own son embarked on the path of becoming an actor, not only did he not bless him, but he even ridiculed his son from time to time during interviews.
It is even more impossible to introduce resources to his son, and the resources Zhang Boyu received in the circle were all from his mother Lu Liping and stepfather Sun Dapao.
Once when she was helping her stepson stand up, Sun Haiying said some heartfelt words on the stage, which made Zhang Boyu burst into tears:
"Whether he calls me daddy or not, I am a father, so I have to set an example." To do what a father should do, just sacrifice yourself and don't care what he does to you. "
Even if Zhang Boyu wants to improve his acting skills by acting in dramas, Lao Zhang still has an unsupportive attitude. Every time he acts in a drama, Lao Zhang almost never came to support his son.
Sun Dapao came to almost every performance and gave Zhang Boyu certain suggestions and guidance after his performance, which helped him grow well.
If these are attributed to Lao Zhang's encouragement, or an alternative way of education, it is somewhat understandable.
But his son Zhang Boyu held a wedding, and as a father, Zhang Fengyi still did not attend the wedding. This is a bit incomprehensible.
In the interview, Lao Zhang gave three reasons:
First, he had work to do, and he had to attend a press conference for a new drama that day;
Second, his son’s wedding was too high-profile and a bit extravagant and wasteful;
Third, the weddings he attended ended up getting divorced, so for the sake of his son, it was best not to go.
At first glance, these three reasons seem quite reasonable, but in fact, Lao Zhang's way of educating his stepdaughter is not as harsh as his son.
It is said that Zhang Fengyi dotes on his stepdaughter in particular and responds to her every request. Not only does he buy her a luxury car, but she also flies back from the set to celebrate her birthday when she takes leave from the set.
When he is free, Lao Zhang will drive his own luxury car and take his stepdaughter and his young wife to play. The scene is quite warm and happy.
Such a gap immediately aroused the disgust of netizens, and also caused Lao Zhang to bear a lot of infamy.
Every time Zhang Boyu met Lao Zhang, the two kept a sufficient distance of five meters, and there was no communication during the whole process, which shows that the relationship between father and son is very cold.
Now Zhang Boyu has married and started a business. With the help of his little stepmother Huo Fan, the relationship between Zhang Boyu and his son Zhang Boyu has eased. The two will make appointments to play ball and exercise together from time to time.
Her mother, Lu Liping, and her stepfather, Sun Dapao, also immigrated to live abroad and seldom interfered with Jianghu affairs.
I believe that time is a good thing, it will filter out those unhappy things in the heart very well. After all, they are father and son, and everything will be cleared up.
The hearts of parents in the world are pitiful. Everything Lao Zhang does is for his son’s good. I believe that under Lao Zhang’s training, Zhang Boyu’s development in the industry will get better and better.
