Zhang Yimou , Gong Li and Xiao Hua were all written by Xiao Hua in the book "The Past Events", and it also restores the unknown secret history of famous directors for everyone.
In 1988, Xiao Hua and Zhang Yimou were already legitimate couples, and they also gave birth to a lovely daughter Zhang Mo. Xiao Hua is willing to let go of his figure for love. The "lady of a family" with education and background washes his hands and makes soup at home, and he is devoted to her husband and children.
However, that year, Zhang Yimou, who successfully changed his career as director with " Red Sorghum ", said in an interview with the media: "My marriage is a mistake and a product of the times." As soon as

is said, what else do you don’t understand? After all, the infatuation of "the eldest lady" was wrong. Xiao Hua's hand that was originally washing Zhang Yimou's clothes trembled, and she was in a trance. She recalled the time she went to the countryside to go to the countryside to work in the countryside.
Zhang Yimou is the son of a "landlord". Once a huge change occurs, the "young master" becomes a poor boy. Such a background was criticized at the time. The two studied in the same school in junior high school, so they met. Xiao Hua came from Beijing, had a wealthy family, and was full of "a lady of a family".
Zhang Yimou was attracted by the eye-catching Xiao Hua at once, but there were many people pursuing Xiao Hua, and he was the least outstanding one. In order to catch up with Xiao Hua, he pestered Xiao Hua every day and talked about his experiences in Beijing.

Once, several boys blocked Xiao Hua and wanted to "teas" her. After seeing this, Zhang Yimou rushed into the crowd and started fighting with the leading man. However, with two fists, Zhang Yimou was so brave that he was beaten to the blue face.
was originally very ordinary, but after Zhang Yimou was beaten, he looked even more ugly. However, Xiao Hua, who was beating, burst out laughing. For the first time, she felt that Zhang Yimou was so beautiful. This time, Zhang Yimou had become the "hero" in her heart, and the two became closer.
Later, Zhang Yimou was arranged to go to the countryside, but Xiao Hua received the admission letter from Shanghai Jiaotong University with the help of his parents. When Zhang Yimou learned that Xiao Hua was going to study in Shanghai, he came to see Xiao Hua in the middle of the night. He said sourly: "When you go to Shanghai, you will meet many excellent people. At that time, you will definitely abandon me and forget me."

Xiao Hua feels worse and worse when he hears it. Although she promised many times that she would not want him just because she saw the "Flower World", Zhang Yimou still looked depressed.
In order to reassure Zhang Yimou, Xiao Hua made a decision to destroy his future: give up going to college.
Xiao Hua never expected that he sacrificed so much for Zhang Yimou, but now his words "It's a mistake" are all things covered up.

What made her sad is still behind. While washing clothes, Xiao Hua took out a love letter from Zhang Yimou's clothes. It was a love letter written by Gong Li to Zhang Yimou, which said: "You should get love, are we getting married?" "Since you left, my heart will go with you." "I remember how you snuggled in my arms, so cute."
Ambiguous words were seen in Xiao Hua's eyes and stuck in her heart.

"Zhang Yimou cheated!" Xiao Hua accepted the news in shock. She didn't know how she should face this. The story in Gong Li's letter was very similar to the way they lived together in the countryside.
After Xiao Hua gave up college for Zhang Yimou, he followed him to the countryside despite his family's obstruction. During that time, they spent the hardest and happiest time. With Xiao Hua's company, Zhang Yimou seemed to have endless energy every day.

Their living place is Han Kiln, Xiao Hua is responsible for three meals a day, and he will pick up books in his spare time. When Zhang Yimou comes back from work, he will teach her to draw and tell her stories. The two of them are in love, as if they are a pair of good friends.
Wait until the national resumes the college entrance examination . Zhang Yimou really wanted to study, but because of his identity, he was not qualified. Xiao Hua had a shameless face and begged to his brother-in-law to exchange for Zhang Yimou's chance to go to college.

Xiao Hua knew that Zhang Yimou had cheated, just like many women in that era, he chose to swallow his anger. Divorce was something she had never thought of.
However, she doesn’t want to, it doesn’t mean that Zhang Yimou doesn’t want to. Zhang Yimou likes photography. Xiao Hua knew her dream and secretly saved money and bought Zhang Yimou's first camera in his life.

With the help of Xiao Hua, Zhang Yimou successfully entered university and studied photography. After graduation, he studied with Chen Kaige. With Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou learned a lot of things and his career became better and better.
At this time, Zhang Yimou was no longer satisfied with being a photographer, but wanted to be a director.

1987, Zhang Yimou's debut work "Red Sorghum" was completed. With this movie, Zhang Yimou soared into the sky and won the Golden Rooster Award , Golden Bear Award and Hundred Flowers Award .
The young and beautiful heroine Gong Li also entered Zhang Yimou's heart. At this time, Gong Li had a boyfriend who was irritable and always fucked her. Gong Li and Zhang Yimou have become acquainted with each other because of this drama, and have long been "secretly connected with music".
When Xiao Hua took the letter to question Zhang Yimou, Zhang Yimou just said lightly: "You know, let's get divorced!"

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue. Xiao Hua couldn't react at once. When they fell in love, Zhang Yimou could write a 40-page love letter just to be with him. Now that he doesn't love him anymore, he is so decisive again.
Zhang Yimou's mother was also very angry when she found out. She said to Xiao Hua: "My daughter-in-law can only be you. I don't recognize anyone except you. If he dares to divorce you, I will recognize you as my goddaughter."
When a man becomes ruthless, no one can save him. At this time, Zhang Mo was only 7 years old, and Zhang Yimou resolutely divorced Xiao Hua.

Xiao Hua recalled that passage and said in the book: In this story, Gong Li and I are not winners. However, I was the only one who was the most tragic woman in the story, trapped in the shadow of Zhang Yimou for the rest of his life.
Xiao Hua would say this, which makes sense. Zhang Yimou did not marry Gong Li in the end, but married Chen Ting, who was 31 years younger than him.
The story of Zhang Yimou and Chen Ting was not going well, but she laughed to the end and became the final winner.

Zhang Yimou was indeed with Gong Li after his divorce, but I don’t know if it was due to his debt to his ex-wife and daughter, or whether he didn’t love Gong Li enough, he made Gong Li famous in his career.
He and Gong Li have almost become golden partners. In all his works, the protagonists are almost Gong Li, such as " Ju Dou ", " Living ", " Big Red Lantern Hanging High ", etc. Gong Li soared into the sky and firmly sat on the throne of the queen.

But in terms of relationships, Gong Li couldn't wait for the opportunity to become a regular person. She got angry with Zhang Yimou more than once because of this matter, but Zhang Yimou never let go. Once, Gong Li could no longer help and asked her brother to ask Zhang Yimou if she wanted to marry her.
Zhang Yimou's words completely shattered Gong Li's fantasy. He said: "Why should we marry her? Our love is free and we don't need a piece of paper to bind us."
Zhang Yimou's high-sounding words also made Gong Li understand that Zhang Yimou would not marry her. At this time, Gong Li chose to leave him and officially take his own path of "emperor".

After the divorce, Xiao Hua was unwilling to accept Zhang Yimou's support and chose to support himself. Her daughter was the only comfort in her life. She wrote the story of herself and Zhang Yimou into a book called "The Past Eternal Eternity".
She is dedicated to raising her daughter. In order to prevent her daughter Zhang Mo from being affected by their affairs, she kept telling her daughter: "Although I divorce your father, we always love you, don't be full of hatred towards him, let go of prejudice, and get along with her father."

Zhang Yimou and Gong Li have been together for 6 years and finally parted ways.In 1999, 49-year-old Zhang Yimou met Chen Ting, who was only 18 years old. Chen Ting was originally here to interview for an actor, but she didn't expect that she won the role, but got the "name" of Zhang Yimou's wife.
In 2011, it was reported online that Chen Ting was Zhang Yimou's lover and gave birth to three children for him. This time, Zhang Yimou did not retreat, but took Chen Ting to obtain the certificate. This relationship hidden under the ground finally came to justice.

Xiao Hua took her daughter alone and was Zhang Yimou's parents who had been helping Xiao Hua. Therefore, Zhang Mo's relationship with his grandparents has always been very good, but she hates her father and Gong Li, and is also very filial to her mother.
When Zhang Mo can make money by herself, she will always buy a lot of things for her mother. Zhang Mo's filial piety undoubtedly soothes Xiao Hua's heart.

In order to allow Zhang Mo and Zhang Yimou to get along well, when Zhang Yimou filmed " Have Something to Say ", Xiao Hua agreed to Zhang Yimou's idea of taking Zhang Mo to the crew.
That period was Zhang Mo's first time to come into contact with his father's work. He saw his father's hardships on the set. His father's sleep time every day was very short, and he kept connecting with all parties. He was busy like a "gyro".
Zhang Mo knew that it was difficult for his father, and his feelings for him became more and more complicated. Later, with the help of Zhang Yimou, Zhang Mo went abroad to study, and after returning to China, he studied as a director with his father.

, and Xiao Hua never remarries after his divorce. She put all her thoughts on Zhang Mo. Although her marriage with Zhang Yimou failed, she never said Zhang Yimou was not right. With the title of Zhang Yimou's ex-wife, Xiao Hua's life is neither good nor bad, and with the help of his daughter and Zhang Yimou's family, she has no financial difficulties.

Both are in their seventies. Zhang Yimou has many children and a beautiful wife in his arms. On the other hand, Xiao Hua is much more miserable. As she said, her life is like the "tragic heroine" in the story.
Xiao Hua said that Zhang Yimou's shadow in her mind is getting farther and farther away. Now 34 years have passed since the two divorced. Time will dilute all the "pain". I also hope that she will let go of all the "grudges" and live her life well.
