Hong Kong movie "Ruan Lingyu" poster
Hong Kong Jiahe Film Co., Ltd. produced the biographical movie "Ruan Lingyu" in 1992. The director is Kwan Kwan. The actors gather many Hong Kong movie stars, including Maggie Cheung , Leung Ka Fai , Qin Han, Wu Qihua , Carina Lau , Ye Tong , etc. This is the most realistic and comprehensive video information we can see at the moment about Ruan Lingyu . The film changes the black and white of the early silent film era in China to color, and turns modern interviews and discussions that should be color into black and white. This strange contrast may be to highlight Ruan Lingyu's vivid life.
Ruan Lingyu
Ruan Lingyu, a popular star in the early Chinese film industry. He is a non-professional background. After half a year of study, he joined the film industry at the age of 16. In just 9 years, 29 films were filmed, which is highly productive. The characters she plays, including female students, female workers, rural girls, prostitutes, nuns, beggars, etc., cover a wide range, but basically cannot escape the tragic ending. In the
video, Ruan Lingyu's serious attitude when filming is shown in many places. She has high self-responsibility and can always interpret the role based on the character she plays and upholds empathy. There was a rain scene. The weather was very cold and the protection measures were not very good at that time. Ruan Lingyu performed repeatedly in the heavy rain, grasping the role, which surprised the staff present, and thus became seriously ill. This situation seems rare and painful to see nowadays.

The performance at this time is no longer a means of making a living, but a true love for Ruan Lingyu. Thinking about her situation and experience at that time, it seems that only acting can allow her to escape from the unbearable reality and find a place to storm her thoughts and even her soul. for this, she gave all of it, which also positively improved the quality of the film and gained more fans and market.
However, reality is so sensible that even God is joking with her. In his last work, "New Women", directed by Cai Chusheng, the plot is a cold script written for Ruan Lingyu's real fate. The new woman Wei Ming she plays is a real version of Ruan Lingyu. At that time, Ruan Lingyu would never have thought that one day she would have the same ending as Wei Ming.

Now, when we mention Ruan Lingyu, in addition to her peerless appearance, she chose to commit suicide in her youth. This is a bumpy relationship with her, and the three men in life are inseparable from her.
Zhang Damin
Ruan Lingyu's husband. Ruan Lingyu's mother worked as a servant for the Zhang family in her early years, and the mother and daughter were living under someone else's roof. Zhang Daming people are fair-looking and dressed decently, but they are an ignorant and have poor character. He coveted Ruan Lingyu's beauty, and he was tangled and entangled. Ruan Lingyu was originally wary of the master-servant love, and the pressure of inferiority and traditional morality made her afraid to think about this. But I couldn't resist getting along for a long time, and with my mother's matchup, I agreed. Later, the Zhang family was defeated, and Zhang Damin didn't repent. He had to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and also wanted Ruan Lingyu's offerings. He was really a "scum" and was not enough to describe such a person. After Ruan Lingyu lived with Tang Jishan, Zhang Damin slandered and spread rumors everywhere, and even sued him in court, which made Ruan Lingyu very painful. Ruan Lingyu's death was the initiator.

Tang Jishan
Southeast Asian wealthy businessman. Relying on wealth, he plays with female celebrities everywhere. After becoming the major shareholder of Lianhua Company, she began to approach Ruan Lingyu. She was attracted by this mature man with a successful career and lived with Tang Jishan after a divorce with Zhang Damin. Ruan Lingyu later gradually realized that Tang Jishan was romantic everywhere and tolerated it again and again until Cai Chusheng appeared.
Cai Chusheng
The well-known director at that time. After he collaborated with Ruan Lingyu on "New Women", he gradually fell in love.Cai Chusheng positioned himself as a tree hole - a listener, but did not have the courage to accept Ruan Lingyu's love, which indirectly led to Ruan Lingyu's despair in life.
Ruan Lingyu, who was desperate, took three bottles of sleeping pills to commit suicide late at night on March 7, 1935 after leaving two suicide notes.

There is another episode here : Tang Jishan discovered that Ruan Lingyu committed suicide by taking medicine. In order to cover up the news, she was not immediately sent to a nearby public hospital for rescue. Instead, she took a detour to a private hospital in the far suburbs. After going there, she could not be treated and returned to the public hospital in the city. It was almost noon on March 8, and she missed the best rescue time. Ruan Lingyu, who was only 25 years old, passed away.

With his simple and perfect replica performance in the film, Maggie Cheung won many awards in 1992:
42nd Berlin International Film Festival Best Actress; 12th Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress; 28th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards Best Actress . The film itself was nominated repeatedly in the above-mentioned film festivals, but none of them finally won the award, which also indirectly proves Maggie Cheung's excellent acting skills.
The man has passed away. No matter how sad he is, look at the last voice Ruan Lingyu left us at the end of her life. There is no one who has a lot of words to say. The two real suicide notes are as follows:
Damin:
I have been forced to death by you, who is willing to believe it? Don’t you think about posting you another 100 yuan a month after I separated from you? You are so unscrupulous. Now that I am dead, you are probably satisfied! People must think that I am afraid of sin, but in fact, I am afraid of sin. I just regretted it and misunderstood (understand) that I should not be the battle between you two, but it is too late! No need to cry! I won't live anymore and I don't have to repent, because things have reached this point.
Ji Shan:
No you are obsessed with ×× (note: refers to the singing and dancing star Liang Saizhen), without you hit me that night, and hit me again tonight, I probably wouldn't be like this!
After I die, there will definitely be people saying that you are a demon who plays with women in the future, and even more so that I am a soulless woman. But at that time, I am no longer alive, so you can bear it yourself!
The past Zhiyun (note: Zhang Zhiyun, the female movie star played with by Tang Jishan), I added today, who will be tomorrow? I think you know it yourself.
I am dead, I dare not hate you. I hope you will treat your mother and little Nannan well, and the labor owed by Lianhua 2,050 yuan. Please pay attention to them. Please take care of them carefully, because you can only rely on them!
Without me, you can do what you like, I am very happy.
Lingyu's ultimate pen
