In 2002, the movie "Orange Is Red " made Kou Sehun who played the old man become a "professional old man" in the eyes of the audience.
In the play, he is the head of the family, he can have three wives and four concubines, and he can hug him from left to right.
However, what everyone did not expect was that he still did not change his romantic nature off-screen.
lives under the same roof with his wife and lover, and they each gave birth to a son and a daughter.
Faced with the ridicule of everyone and the doubts of reporters, Kou Shixun was even more angry. He responded in public: If I could live my life over again, I would never marry two wives.
How sweet Kou Shixun was back then, but how regretful he is now.
1 From school uniform to wedding dress
Kou Shixun was born in Taiwan, China in 1954.
Because he likes watching movies, he has no advantages in height or appearance, and despite the opposition of his family, he moves towards his dream of becoming an actor.
's eagerness to pursue his dream unexpectedly attracted the attention of a girl.
She is Kou Shixun's classmate, named Cui Yaoqi.
's shy personality and busy studies in high school meant that before she had time to express her joy, it was time to part ways.
Standing at the crossroads, she felt more confused than ever before.
After thinking for a while, Cui Yaoqi couldn't help but ask him about his life plans after graduation.
The moment he mentioned the target college and major, her future seemed much clearer.
Even Kou Shixun didn't expect that he would meet his old classmates in the unfamiliar Shixin University. This relationship made the two closer than before.
Looking at the charming girl who often helped him, the throbbing in his heart made Kou Shixun no longer able to hold back the words he had been holding back for a long time.
Cui Yaoqi's belated confession made Cui Yaoqi indulge in a sea of happiness, and she agreed to his pursuit without hesitation. But can this relationship that started out of emotion really lead to happiness?
The answer is yes.
After graduating from college, compared to Cui Yaoqi's willingness to be ordinary, Kou Shixun chose his childhood dream, signing a contract with China Television and becoming an actor.
However, this road was not as smooth as he imagined.
Although he is professionally qualified and is backed by a large company, Kou Shixun has never received a role that suits him.
In the few years after graduation, he has been wandering on the edge of the entertainment industry, doing insignificant jobs.It was Cui Yaoqi's companionship and encouragement that gave him the opportunity to stand out.
received a male protagonist script for the first time, won the Academy Award for the first time and Best Actor, and tasted the feeling of being surrounded by fans.
Although his appearance is not very good, Kou Shixun used his acting skills to interpret what it means to be a person with a thousand faces. At that time, as long as it was his work, the audience was willing to buy it.
Even mainland audiences are obsessed with this manly Taiwanese actor.
However, he seems to be perfect, but he feels a little guilty for marrying his childhood sweetheart when he was down and out.
When he was poor, he had no financial means to give her a grand wedding, so he could only give her a white wedding dress and pamper her like never before.
is now rich, and he makes no secret of his love for her.
not only spent a huge amount of money to organize a grand wedding for his sweetheart, but also bought a three-story villa in a wealthy area of Taipei.
Some people may envy this good luck, but who knows what Cui Yaoqi paid?
Soon after getting married, she found out that she was pregnant.
In order to take care of Kou Shixun, who was not yet popular, and for the sake of her unborn child, Cui Yaoqi gave up her stable clerical job and became a housewife.
Without her financial support, their life has become more difficult..
Even so, Cui Yaoqi never thought of leaving.
It was not until the birth of his son, Kou Jiarui , that Kou Shixun's acting career took off. In the eyes of outsiders, his family was happy, his career was prosperous, and his life had reached its peak.
But only he knows that all these are bamboo fences plastered with plaster - the surface is smooth .
2 I saw only the new ones smiling, but not the old ones crying
The growth in fame made Kou Shixun unable to stay away from the major production crews all month long.
No matter how busy he is, he always cares about his family. He often calls home and sends flowers by express delivery from time to time.
Even after many years of marriage, he and his wife still maintained the sweetness of their first love. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long.
Cui Yaoqi originally thought that as an actor gets older, he will end his busy work and slowly return to his family, but Kou Shixun broke her understanding.
The movie "Oranges Are Red" helped him reach the peak of his career once again in his middle age.
The growing gap has created an additional barrier between the two.
Originally, we had less time to see each other throughout the year. He finally had time to rest and wanted to spend time with his wife, son, and daughter.
Just created a sweet atmosphere, but the next moment it was ruined by her nagging sentence after sentence.
He only knows how to work and has been homeless for many years. Cui Yaoqi's incomprehension made Kou Shixun very angry.
If you go out to make money by yourself, isn’t it just to support your family?
How did the considerate and virtuous housekeeper at the beginning turn into a shameless mother-in-law?
But at this time, Cui Yaoqi was not aware of it at all. She only felt that she was loved by her husband, had financial freedom, and had an obedient son and daughter. She was truly the happiest woman in the world.
What she doesn't know is that once a man has disgusting thoughts in his heart, it is easy for him to go out and flirt with women.
At a party, Kou Shixun met the youthful, energetic and hot bodybuilding lady - Xu Lidan.
Perhaps it was her life plan to enter the entertainment industry, or perhaps it was the fans' impulse to meet their idol for the first time. She, who was unknown, took the initiative to talk to her.
His unabashed admiration, young and beautiful appearance, who would cruelly say no when seeing him?
But as time goes by, the pure joy of has become less pure.
Xu Lidan was not as shy as Cui Yaoqi and immediately expressed his love to him.
"No status, no money, just being with you is enough"
Don't ask for anything, as long as you are simply with him, you will be satisfied. This girl who bows her head because of love makes Kou Shixun very distressed , and at the same time, he is tangled.
accepted Xu Lidan, how should he face Cui Yaoqi?
The torment in his heart made him unable to help but confess to her.
There are so many ways, but Kou Shixun chose to kill first and then tell the story later. not only brought his lover to his wife, but also said that he would either accept it or get divorced.
At this moment, Cui Yaoqi wanted to curse and forcefully divorce her, but she couldn't.
With a young son and a daughter, a weak financial situation, and her husband's determined appearance, she had to admit Xu Lidan's existence.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, allowing her husband to make mistakes is a wrong decision, but in Cui Yaoqi's eyes, it is the best result.
"As your first wife, I must take care of the family's money."
Men can't always get through the trouble of cheating, let alone Kou Shixun, who has a successful career?
has lived in seclusion for many years, and has long lost his proud figure, beautiful face, and no work experience or social skills.
Instead of being cautiously on guard, it is better to put people in front of you and take the opportunity to make demands and enhance your own status.
Only in this way can we hold financial power in our hands and ensure the best interests of ourselves and our children.
With such a simple condition, Kou Shixun breathed a sigh of relief.
immediately assured his wife that they would not hold a wedding, and her identity as the original wife would not change. However, Xu Lidan, who entered the family, would only be able to carry the identity of his girlfriend for the rest of his life.
Just like that, Cui Yaoqi lives on the third floor, and Xu Lidan lives on the second floor.
Although Cui Yaoqi agreed to her husband's ridiculous request, she was selfish in her heart and was not willing to share her lover with other women.
Seeing Xu Lidan give birth to a son and a daughter one after another, she felt even worse.
Her strength and stinginess made Xu Lidan very dissatisfied, and she could only ask the man for an explanation.
The palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh, and Kou Shixun, who was caught in the middle, was miserable.
The sweet pain made the four children frightened, and Kou Shixun said regretful words more than once.
Until 2010, an accident eased the conflict between the three people.
A serious illness solved the problem that had troubled Kou Shixun for many years.
The two people who had been fighting for many years turned their hostility into friendship and took turns taking care of their husband who was lying in the hospital bed. They could also have a peaceful New Year's Eve dinner during the holidays.
Sitting and enjoying the blessings of everyone is the envy of many men, but Kou Shixun had a wry smile on his face.
"If there is an afterlife, I will never find two wives"
However, what Kou Shixun didn't know was that the absurdity of his youth would all be reflected on his son many years later.
3 On the contrary
Compared to the younger son who is willing to be ordinary, the eldest son Kou Jiarui chose the old path his father took.
In 2008, a Taiwanese drama "Roll, Egg Fried Rice" made the tall and handsome Kou Jiarui make his successful debut.
Although his appearance is in line with the aesthetics of today's star-chasing girls, his journey to stardom was not so smooth.
For 12 years, although Kou Shixun worked hard to push his eldest son into the entertainment industry.
However, due to his acting skills, the roles he received were all male roles. The best resource was to be the male lead in the MV of an unknown singer.
didn't have the opportunity to show his talents until he was discovered by director Guo Jingyu .
plays the role of Chen Xi, a male protagonist who is good at business and is responsible for the glory of his family in the period drama "Little Nyonya ".
's good acting skills and good looks have allowed him to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry.
However, although he has achieved some success in his career, he has also followed the same path as his father in relationships.
I have been in love with my girlfriend for seven years. Normal people would have started a family long ago, but 39-year-old Kou Jiarui has not made any move yet.
Whenever there are scandals involving children, he always denies them.
It was not until March 2022 that he exposed the secret he had hidden for a year and a half.
"I have a daughter."
denied it before. He just felt that he and his girlfriend still had a lot to get along with and had no plans to get married for the time being. The reason why
said this is largely related to his father.
12 years ago, Kou Jiarui participated in a charity basketball game.
's mother and father both appeared in the audience to cheer him on. Although they sat side by side, they didn't even have basic communication.
This shows that the relationship between their husband and wife is not as harmonious as the outside world says.
Many netizens speculated that Kou Jiarui’s delay in getting married was probably influenced by Kou Shixun.
now admits the identity of his girlfriend and daughter, not because there is a relationship problem, but simply because he wants to give their mother and daughter a promise.
Conclusion
Kou Shixun is now 68 years old. Although he is old, his wife and children at home make him dare not stop working .
Since the "scandal" of polygamy spread to the mainland, Kou Shixun's reputation has not been as good as before, and he can only receive some supporting roles with few roles.
He can be the leader of the criminal group - Mr. Ou.
It can also be Mr. Feng who fell at the dock for the sake of national justice.
Some people envy his hugs, while others reprimand him for being "romantic" , but only the person who wears the shoes knows whether they fit or not.
Fortunately or not, I will not regret it later, everything has happened.
I hope he can live happily ever after with his wife and confidante.
