Have you noticed that the entertainment industry has become an exclusive amusement park for rich children.
In the early years, only poor children from hardships were involved in the entertainment industry. Now the world is different, and there are many families with prominent backgrounds in the circle.
For example, Wang Ziyi, who is rich and starts at a private server basically 100,000 yuan;
Zhou Zhennan ;
worth over 100 million, Lin Fengjiao and Jackie Chan's nephew Dong Youlin ;

Fairy sister Liu Yifei , biological father is a first-class diplomat in France, and the godfather is the rich Chen Jinfei.
Ma Boqian , who has been a commentator in " China Rap Peak Confrontation " these two days.
His house has been on a hot search, Ma Boqian's father is a national treasure designer Ma Qingyun .
Ma Qingyun, dean of the School of Architecture at the University of Southern California, Design Director of the American Institute of Architects, Los Angeles Urban Architecture Consultant, Disney Shanghai Project Consultant, Beijing Olympic Architectural Planner.
Hong Kong Sanlitun, designed by him;
98 Art Furnace, designed by him;
Henglong Plaza , also designed by him...
, there is also.
Ma Boqian's mother is also a designer, a top student in the Department of Architecture at Tsinghua University, and later studied in the United States.
Ma Boqian’s grandfather The first coach of Chinese women’s volleyball , well... It is the teacher of Lang Ping in the movie “ Winning the Championship ” - Li Ange .
However, they are not as good as the protagonist we are going to talk about today.
The protagonist once wrote an article called "Old money, New money". He said this:
"Old Money's money is spent invisible places;
New Money's money is spent invisible places.
Old Money may drink 1 kilogram of tea every day for 20,000 yuan, and it doesn't matter how it is;
New Money may usually drink 1 pound of tea of 200 yuan, but when the guests come, they drink 200,000 yuan per pound of tea. "
" Wealth is a game for old money and a weapon for new money."
He is Cai Kangyong , and he has lost the noble son of the old money family without any compromise.
He has always retained the reserve of the old Qian family, but his declining family background also reminds him of the importance of making money.
Cai Kangyong, warm and indifferent, worldly and arrogant.
-
January 27, 1949, New Year's Eve, the Zhoushan Sea, Zhejiang Province.
A luxury passenger ship "Taiping Ship" sailing in Shanghai to Keelung was hit and sunk by another cargo ship due to overload and the lights were not turned on in the dark night...
Cai Kangyong's father Cai Tianduo was one of the owners of the Taiping Ship that year.
The collision with it was Rong Yiren's brother Rong Hongyuan's cargo ship Jianyuan Ship.
It was a chaotic time. The rich people in Shanghai and senior Kuomintang officers all looked for ways to escape.
learned that the "Taiping Wheel" was about to set sail, and they were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. Many people asked for votes with high money, and the corpses were all over the dock. The people who finally boarded the ship were either rich or noble.
In that biting cold night, the "Ping Wheel" carried a boat full of people toward a hopeful tomorrow, but was buried at the bottom of the sea when it was about to arrive at its destination.
The ship is loaded with more than 1,000 people, more than 900 people have been killed, and there are too many celebrities among the passengers killed.
For example, the then chairman of Shanxi Province Qiu Yangjun and his family, the Liaoning Province Xu Zhen and his family, the Jiang Jingguo's friend Yu Jiyu, the grandson of Yuan Shikai's , Deng Lianxi, the editor-in-chief of " Time and Chao ", Wu Bochao, the dean of Nanjing National Conservatory of Music, and the father of detective Li Changyu, the father of , Gong Ruxin, and so on.
There were 36 people miraculously surviving, including Cai Tianduo.
The old saying goes: If you survive a great disaster, you will have good fortune.
I don’t know how Cai Tianduo will evaluate this sentence, because the insurance company insured after the “Taiping Wheel” shipwreck immediately announced its bankruptcy, and all liability for compensation fell on Cai Tianduo.
Cai Tianduo's father was originally the boss of Shanghai water company.
In an era when many people had never seen cars, the Cai family had 7 cars, and the valuable antiques and calligraphy and paintings at home were full of pits and valleys.
In the words of He Jiong , other people's houses are houses, and Cai's houses are Cai's mansion.
In the plump material conditions, Cai Tianduo has no worries about food and clothing, and can also be said to be pampered and live in luxury.
Cai Tianduo himself is not a playboy, he is a top student who graduated from the law department of Fudan University.
At that time, many celebrities pointed at him and took action.
In Shanghai, Cai Tianduo has imported convertibles to and from get off work, and traffic police in Shanghai know his car.
Cai Tianduo's car came over, and even the red lights at the intersection would turn the green lights for him.
is a real privileged class.
Unfortunately, the sudden shipwreck subverted Cai Tianduo's life overnight.
The Cai family is not enough to compensate.
In one lawsuit after another, the Cai family became a joke on Shanghai.
In order to make a living, Cai Tianduo went to Taiwan.

The lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Cai family has declined in Shanghai, but when they come to Taiwan, they are still the old money family who understands life the most.
Cai Tianduo's wife is also a perfect Shanghai lady. She always supports mahjong at home, and her card friends are all wives of senior Kuomintang officers.
Cai Tianduo was born when Cai Kangyong was 51 years old. He was the old Laizi of his parents. Cai Kangyong said: "They treat me as a pet."
In Cai Kangyong's memory, his mother got up at 12 o'clock every day to wash her hair and make her hair, and always wore cheongsams and high heels, with perfect makeup.
When she was in a good mood, she drew paper patterns to design clothes herself, the collar of the gauze pajamas should be fur, and the slippers she wore at home were all covered with peacock fur.
He had never seen his mother look like she didn't wear makeup. He used six servants at the peak of his family. The snacks after school were abalone, and the mahjong was inlaid with diamonds. The game lasted until three or four o'clock in the night, and the crowds were full of people.
But Cai Kangyong was not interested in anything.
He later concluded that perhaps it was because "like living a second-hand life of his father."
For example, Cai Tianduo took Cai Kangyong to watch Peking Opera . When Cai Kangyong saw Sun Wukong rolling down from three tables, Cai Kangyong clapped his hands excitedly, Cai Tianduo would say:
"Shanghai people all flipped down from five tables."
For example, when going to a buffet, Cai Tianduo would sigh again: "In Shanghai, only beggars lined up with plates to eat."
Cai Kangyong reads a book, and his father would come over and take a look, and then say: "Only books before the Qing Dynasty are good books."
Under the influence of his father, Cai Kangyong understood what "no tasteless" meant too early.
Cai Kangyongzhi is probably because of this reason.
When I was in school, Cai Kangyong was keen on showing off.
He is not tall and looks ordinary, so he has to follow the IQ route. It is certain that his academic performance is good. He also often participates in speech competitions.
Good eloquence was learned at that time.
After Cai Kangyong finished high school, Cai Tianduo said: "Brother, you must study for a master's degree and go to the best university in the United States."
Tone sounds like ordering a dish, just cook it out.
, and Cai Tianduo stipulates: No plates are allowed.
The editor recalled carefully. It seems that no child from the old Qian family can work part-time to study.
only Li Zekai , the upstart class, the parents are always vigilant and hope that the children will be trained more fiercely.
The old Qian family pays attention to the word "light", which is too radical, too enthusiastic and too excited, and they are all inferior.
Cai Kangyong's rebellion began since he went to college.
He applied for the movie department of UCLA. His father felt dull, but he couldn't resist him.
From then on, Cai Kangyong stepped into the entertainment industry with half his foot.

Cai Kangyong went to study in the movie department, and his father Cai Tianduo asked an old friend to send him off.
Who are old friends?
Hong Kong well-known director Hu Jinquan , and is also one of the earliest directors in the Chinese circle to be famous all over the world.
1986, Cai Kangyong was studying in Los Angeles. The novelist Bai Xianyong wrote a letter to him and asked him to help him read a script.
The script of the movie is adapted from "The Legend of the Exiled Immortal", which is also Bai Xianyong's work. It tells the story of a daughter from a noble family changing her fate as her parents died in the Taiping Ship.
Bai Xianyong took out a lot of information to Cai Kangyong. Cai Kangyong waved his hand, "No need, no," Bai Xianyong was puzzled, Cai Kangyong said calmly, "The Taiping Wheel belongs to my family."
Bai Xianyong was stunned, "No wonder they asked me to find you."
Cai Kangyong graduated from university, and his father's friend Zhou Naizhong introduced him to director Anhua, making him the planning and production manager of "Qiuhaoheng". After
, he was signed into the Hong Kong Shaw Film Company by Sir Run Run Shaw's wife Fang Yihua .
"Kung Fu Emperor Fang Shiyu" is one of the works he participated in the screenwriter.
At least half of Cai Kangyong's road to becoming famous was paved by Cai Tianduo.
Other half, relying on Cai Kangyong himself.
writes Cai Kangyong, bypassing "Zhongtian No. 1 Sister" and " Kangxi is Coming ".
The early Kangxi was also inseparable from Cai Kangyong's family background.
Big bosses from all walks of life even invited heavyweight politicians such as Ma Ying-jeou, Lu Moulian and Wu Boxiong, all relying on the Cai family's connections. After the
program was smooth, Cai Kangyong gradually found his strengths.
When interviewing Jackie Chan , Cai Kangyong just said, "Are you tired of making a movie?" Turning his head, Jackie Chan was already crying loudly.
access Shu Qi , and he asked, "Are you happy?"
Shu Qi's eyes turned red.
Cai Kangyong has a kind of aura that makes you want to be heart-wrenching. It seems that you can't hide anything from him. You don't want to hide it from him.
Ma Dong said, "Brother Kang Yong has a vicious heart!"
He said in an interview earlier that if the questions he had in the interview were by the other party, then
"Ask once every three minutes, and ask again every three minutes. When asked, I and the guests laughed and said that this person was too annoying!"
Relying on this gentle and warm atmosphere and sharp questions, coupled with the jokes of Xiao S, many celebrities complained about their worries in Kangxi and talked about their thoughts.
Outside Kangxi, Cai Kangyong tried making shoes.
He has built a high heel shoe brand, personally designed and promoted it hard, and also sponsored wedding shoes for Xie Na , and the main shoe style looks like this.
American magazine giant Contener entered Taiwan and launched Chinese versions of magazines such as "Vogue" and "GQ" in Taiwan.
The boss knew Cai Kangyong with keen eyes and asked him to serve as the first editor-in-chief of GQ Taiwan.
Cai Kangyong goes to work one day every week, and his job is to pick photos. He himself joked that he was the most comfortable editor.
Cai Kangyong loves art, he also loves to watch various art exhibitions, and from time to time, he also wants to create.
's work is very humorous.
Cai Kangyong has always dreamed of directing. He studied in the director department when he was studying, and after graduation he also worked in film-related work.
When Ang Lee became famous, he asked himself fiercely, "Why don't you stick to it anymore!"
After Kangxi stopped broadcasting, he tried to be a director again, tailoring " Eat Love " for his favorite woman Xiao S, with a Douban score of 5.2.
Some people say that big directors all have their own tyrant temperament. Cai Kangyong is too considerate and inappropriate.
Think about it carefully, Cai Kangyong's "The Way to Speak" is very convincing. He is really good at speaking.
Cai Kangyong did the best:
hosted Kangxi and treated gossip as a serious science;
participated in the Talk of Strange Talk, expressed his own opinions, and tried to influence and convince some people;
published the book, which is a comprehensive display and explanation of Cai Kangyong's personal experience and views.
What Cai Kangyong admires most is his upbringing.
There is an episode of "Kangxi is Coming" where Xiao S's high heels were kicked far away. Cai Kangyong ran to pick up the shoes, and then squatted on the ground to help her put them on.
The last night, this scene happened again.
S said with red eyes: "The only person in my life who helps me wear shoes is besides my mother, you."
Cai Kangyong said: "When they praised me for being nice to you, I actually think that is just something a boy should do for girls."
Cai Kangyong's only requirement for the producer of the program:
will not interrupt the guests to joke about vulnerable groups such as disabled people, but it is necessary to cut it clean when editing.
These two things happen to be the greatest wealth left by his family background.
The house Cai Kangyong lives in Taipei now is not luxurious.
He and his boyfriend Liu Kunlong have been together for nearly thirty years.
It is said that Cai Kangyong's house has a study room where guests are not seen.
is created according to Cai Kangyong's dream. The house is a wallpaper for a man with naked body exposed, and one of the men is Liu Kunlong, who is almost naked on the wallpaper.
Two years ago, the reporter interviewed Cai Kangyong and asked him what gifts he still wanted to ask God for in this life?
Cai Kangyong said: " suddenly died , the kind that has no warning."
's answer is very Cai Kangyong.
