Jiang Wen's younger brother, Wujiang.
Although Jiang Wen and Wujiang were born by the same mother, they have different temperaments and personalities. There is a saying in the circle that Jiang Wen is illiterate and Wujiang is not martial. Of course, this does not necessarily refer to personality, but their respective performances in the works. However, due to the influence of growth, there are many similarities in the behavior, expression and tone of the Chiang brothers, and they are often mistaken by the audience in their lives.
Wujiang, Jiang Wen: The love of movie star brothers is sunny.
10 years ago, the TV series "Beijingers in new york" starring Jiang Wen caused great repercussions throughout the country; 10 years later, the TV series Farewell to Vancouver, starring Jiang Wen's younger brother Wu Jiang, which reflects the life and feelings of a new generation of immigrants, became a hit nationwide. In the China film and television circle, Jiang Wen and Wujiang have won unanimous praise from the audience and peers for their excellent acting skills, and their brotherly affection and happy family are even more admirable.
Wujiang is a desk lamp and Jiang Wen is a lampshade.
Jiang Wen is four years older than Jiang Wuda. Since childhood, Jiang Wen has been taking care of his younger brother and bought five steamed stuffed buns. He only ate two and left three for his brother. On Wujiang's birthday, my brother prepared a gift early; When I was in college, Jiang Wen quietly sent books to my brother. Wu Jiang said with emotion that at every important moment in his life, his brother would take the initiative to appear. At home, father Jiang Hongqi is an army cadre. He is usually taciturn, but he loves literature. My mother Levin is cheerful and generous, and she likes dancing and music when she was young. Mother is the head of the family, but she seldom forces her two children to do anything. In this relaxed family environment, my brother Jiang Wen naturally has a great influence on my younger brother. When I was in primary school, Wujiang wrote in an essay: Isn't the road my brother walked a mirror of my progress?
When Jiang Wen started acting, Wujiang went to see him as soon as he was free. It was interesting to watch them rehearse. Since then, Wujiang has been fascinated by acting. When he graduated from high school, he did not hesitate to apply for his brother's alma mater, the Central Academy of Drama. Unexpectedly, Wujiang was brushed off for two consecutive exams. Undaunted, he transferred to the Beijing Film Academy, and finally entered the same line with his brother.
Wujiang has many similarities with his brother, even in appearance. When Wujiang walks in the street, people often point to him and say, Look, Jiang Wen is coming! When asked by a reporter whether Wujiang felt that he was living in the shadow of Jiang Wen, Wujiang smiled foolishly: "It's not the shadow, but the sunshine. My brother's achievements are an inspiration to me and have inspired my potential. " He also quoted a taxi driver's "incisive judgment": "Wujiang is a desk lamp and the lampshade is his brother. You always look at the lamp through the lampshade. It always looks gray. If you really want to see what the lamp looks like, you should take off the lampshade. "
Now, relying on his own strength, Wujiang, who has narrowed the distance with his brother step by step, is finally qualified to "sit and talk" with his brother. But interestingly, when the two brothers are together, they rarely touch on the topic of movies. Usually, when two brothers meet, Jiang Wen will say, "Xiao Er, please help me." So Wujiang went to run errands for his brother again. What the two brothers talk about most at home is family, not family affairs. The only exception is that once Jiang Wen praised Wujiang's play on the spot and said that it was "well played"-Wujiang was so beautiful that he said such an evaluation from his brother's mouth.
Speaking of his younger brother Wujiang, Jiang Wen gnashed her teeth and said, "My younger brother is not only cuter than me, but also more hateful than me, because someone pointed at my nose in the street recently and asked me politely: Are you Wujiang? What a fool you played in bath! " Jiang Wen also said mischievously, "I'm not afraid that he will surpass me. To say the most secular things, there used to be one pillar in our family, but now there are two pillars in our family. Isn't that stronger? "
When they grow up, because they have their own family and career, they spend little time together, but their feelings are increasing. Once Jiang Wen went to Hengdian for filming and passed by Shanghai. Only when he got there did he know that his brother was also in Shanghai. Twenty minutes before boarding the plane, Jiang Wen made a special trip to visit his brother's studio. In an interview, a reporter said that Wu Jiang was kinder and friendlier than his brother. Wu Jiang immediately became anxious and repeatedly argued that his brother was not as cold as the legend. The reporter next to him was very wronged: "You always say that Jiang Wen is good. What is he inferior to you?" Wujiang seriously thought about it: "He is better than me in all aspects and will always be a mirror of my progress."
Jiang Wen: Love is like wine and marriage is like tea.
When Jiang Wen promoted his new film "Green Tea" nationwide, people paid more attention to his affection and love. Whether his love disappeared in Liu Xiaoqing prison or the love between him and Zhao Wei continued in the play, it attracted a lot of attention. In fact, Jiang Wen, who has been rolling in endless love for many years, has long been exhausted by Qian Fan, and the dust has settled-his wife Sandelin and his daughter Ichiro are his warmest concerns.
When I first met, Sandrine, a French female scholar who studied Taoist culture in China, couldn't say that she liked the China-winning actress whose height was 1.83m and her weight was 98kg, but she saw an oriental flavor in Jiang Wen that was different from that of French men. She was deeply attracted by the frankness and roughness of his gesture. Although Jiang Wen has always looked dignified in his life, Sandelin still felt his tenderness buried in his bones.
Sandrine is a woman who can calm men down. Her academic temperament and the beauty and virtue of the Virgin of the West made Jiang Wen's unresolved feelings fall to the ground instantly. 1997 On an ordinary day, they naturally came together. There is no grand and luxurious scene, too many people don't know, but Jiang Wen and Sandrine know very well how sacred and firm their decision is.
After the marriage, Jiang Wen tried his best to make Sanderling have more time and energy to study the Taoist culture in China, so that Sanderling could go to work without worry. He has made five films in one year. But he doesn't feel hard. At this time, he felt that he was an indomitable spirit.
When filming "The Devil Comes", Jiang Wen was filming a highlight on location in western Hebei, when he suddenly got a phone call from his wife saying that his father was having surgery in Beijing. During his father's illness, Sandelin was basically taken care of in Beijing, but surgery was a big deal. Despite the extreme fatigue at work, Jiang Wen drove back to Beijing overnight and took turns to accompany his brother in the ward for a day and a night until his father was all right. He is using actions to prove his filial piety to his parents as a man and give his wife a peace of mind.
After the birth of his daughter Ichiro, Jiang Wen added the joy and responsibility of being a father. Watching my daughter Jiang grow up day by day, I feel mature. Bathing Ichiro, changing diapers and nursing the baby, her daughter's every move and smile touched Jiang Wen's heartstrings. Jiang Wen told a friend that my daughter is the most beautiful person I have ever seen. Although the youngest daughter can't understand too much fatherly love, she clearly realizes that the people who accompany her every day are her very close relatives. I remember Jiang Wen was going to attend an international film festival that day. On his way to the airport reluctantly, he received a phone call from his wife. His daughter Ichiro woke up in her sleep and began to cry. She seemed to feel the coming of parting. Hang up the phone, tears crept up Jiang Wen's face. In tears, Jiang Wen glanced out of the window. The warmth of thousands of lights became a secret he didn't want to tell. This once cynical man is homesick!
With a family and a daughter, Jiang Wen knows what love is.
Jiang Wen spent most of his time in his own film and television career in China. He wanted to give his wife and daughter a warm harbor with his own efforts. While his wife Sandelin and his daughter Ichiro live in France for a long time. Although far away from Qianshan, their hearts are always with Jiang Wen. Every time Jiang Wen dials the phone on the other side of the ocean, in Ichiro's gentle "moonlight song", Jiang Wen feels drunk, drunk in this irresistible affection. ...
Wujiang: I fell in love with a good wife very early.
On the screen, Wujiang plays a simple and responsible role. In life, he is also a good husband and father. What is particularly interesting is that he and his wife have been in love since 16 years old, and they still love each other deeply until now.
1985, 16-year-old Wujiang entered the first grade of high school. One day, in order to prepare for the school sports meeting, several students in the class went to the playground for training, and Wujiang was one of them. Song Yan, a classmate, was deeply attracted by her graceful posture when she was practicing high jump.
Song Yan seemed to realize that someone was watching her, so she turned to look at Wujiang. Wujiang quickly nodded to her with a smile. Song Yan "brush" to the red in the face, the in the mind inexplicable panic.
From that day on, the hearts of two people can no longer be calm. They are looking for each other's figure every day, and when they hear each other's voice, they will blush and heartbeat.
After three years of high school, the underground love affair between Wujiang and Song Yan became more mature. After graduation, influenced by his brother Jiang Wen, Wujiang is going to apply for the Central Academy of Drama. But he didn't know whether Song Yan would agree, so he went to discuss with her. At that time, Song Yan was not familiar with the entertainment circle and didn't know what life it would be like to be an actor. She thinks that since Wujiang likes it, Jiang Wen can help him, and it's not bad to be an actor. Therefore, when Wujiang asked for her advice, she expressed her support and encouraged him to prepare for the exam.
1994, Wujiang graduated from Beijing Film Academy and immediately began to prepare for marriage. A friend advised him: "It is better for an actor to get married late, and you should consider the public image in the future." Wu Jiang said, "What's wrong with being an actor? No matter what happens in the future, I want people to know that I have a good wife and I love her very much. "
Married life is sweet. However, because Wujiang often leaves for several months during filming, they can't even meet, and Song Yan is unprepared for this. In this way, contradictions naturally arise.
On one occasion, Wujiang was filming in other places, and Song Yan was ill. She has a high fever of nearly 40 degrees and has no strength at all. She didn't drink a drop of water all day and night. Song Yan, who is sick, hopes that her husband can accompany her at this time. She called Wujiang and told him that she was ill. The other end of the phone was in a hurry, but at the same time she said helplessly, "Yan, I really can't go back." The crew is pressed for time and has to work overtime every day. Sorry, please ask your family or friends to accompany you to the hospital. " Listening to the busy tone after the phone hung up in the microphone, Yan Song couldn't help but shed tears.
After Wujiang came back from filming in other places, Song Yan talked to him seriously and told him to give up being an actor. She can't stand not seeing him for months. At this time, Wujiang's film shooting is getting better and better, and he likes the profession of actor more and more. Therefore, he disagreed. Song Yan was very sad, and felt that Wujiang was just acting in his heart, and there was no her at all. Two people quarrel, who also can't convince who, Song Yan ignored Wujiang for several days.
After the incident, Wujiang began to reflect calmly. He felt that as a wife, Song Yan's request was not too much. Therefore, as long as Wujiang is at home, he will take the initiative to undertake housework, go shopping and watch movies with his wife. Before going out to shoot, he will say hello to several good friends, so that everyone can care more about Yan Song. On location, he will call his wife every day and never forget to buy her a souvenir wherever he goes.
Gradually, Yan Song began to understand Wujiang. In particular, he created more and more wonderful characters on the screen and was welcomed by the audience. She no longer opposes Wu Jiang as an actor. In order to help Wujiang by going up one flight of stairs in his career, Yan Song began to help him silently behind the scenes. 1996, Wujiang got the script of the TV series "Love Affairs". He liked the script very much, but his image at that time was far from his role, so he had to lose a lot of weight.
Wujiang knows that losing weight is not an easy task, let alone losing dozens of kilograms in a month. However, he really likes this role. When Song Yan learned this, he said to him, "Since you have chosen to be an actor, you must have perseverance and sacrifice. I will help you lose weight. "
So Song Yan made a strict weight-loss plan for Wujiang and supervised him to finish it every day. Every other day, Song Yan will accompany Wujiang to the gym to do equipment exercise. Every time Wujiang makes an action, she counts beside it. If Wujiang didn't finish the prescribed task, he couldn't stop. Sometimes, Wu Jiang couldn't hold on, so she encouraged him: "Come on! Persistence is victory. " When not going to the gym, Song Yan accompanied Wujiang to swim in the swimming pool for hours until they were exhausted.
Under the strict supervision of Song Yan, Wujiang lost nearly 20 kilograms in a month, which surprised everyone and moved the director by his professionalism.
200 1, Wujiang took the film "Bathing". Contrary to last time, he was asked to gain weight this time. Song Yan asked worriedly, "Can you stand losing so much and increasing so much?" Wu Jiang gritted his teeth: "No, I have to do this."
Song Yan is very distressed about Wujiang, but she knows that Wujiang is a person who despairs of his career. So, she began to help Wujiang implement the "fattening project". Every day, she specially cooks some high-fat things like chicken and meat for Wujiang to eat, and also buys bagged food for Wujiang to stuff into her mouth when she is free. Wujiang loves hot pot, so Song Yan accompanied him to eat, and ordered a big table every time, forcing Wujiang to eat.
The "fattening project" has made great achievements, and Wu Jiang's performance in "Bathing" has been a great success. This film won an international prize, and Wujiang's popularity has been greatly improved with this film. Wujiang's success made Song Yan very happy. She tried her best to take care of her home, so that he would have no worries. Now, their daughter is 6 years old, and the family of three lives happily.
Someone once asked Wu Jiang if he felt regret and tired of falling in love with only one woman for more than 8 years since 16 years old. Wu Jiang said that if it's someone you don't like, staying together for a few minutes will feel awkward. For the woman you like, you will never get tired of living with her. Because his wife has become a part of his life and cannot be separated from him. Whenever Song Yan hears her husband's sincere confession, her face will show a happy smile sincerely.
