Li Zhusun of Hefei is a good young man with a handsome face and a handsome fur horse. His family has had hairpin tassels for many generations, and he lives in a huge mansion with fine buildings and round arches in the Shanghai Race Hall. The kidnapping by the gangsters cost huge sums of money before they were redeemed successively.Unexpectedly, the gangsters know the taste by eating their marrow, and their target is Li Zhusun. The family members are panicked and at a loss.It just so happened that his uncle, Guichi Liu Shuofu, was cooperating with Wang Xuchang, a famous photographer who had returned from law studies, to form the Shenzhou Film Company on Yuyuan Road.

I stayed for two months, and it was just in time for Christmas. The film company would not let this kind of annual festival go easily, so they appointed a special person to organize the dance.Li Zhusun originally had his dance partner, but he was afraid that his hidden address would be known and affect his safety, so Liu Shuo's father asked him to choose one of the extras he had hired as a temporary dance partner.Among the many photos, he immediately fell in love with a person named Ruan Yuying, but it was marked on the back of the photo: he is good at Cantonese and has a little knowledge of Shanghai.Li Zhusun knew nothing of Cantonese and was not fluent in Shanghai dialect. He was hesitating. Liu Shuofu made the decision for him, arranged Ruan Yuying as Li Zhusun's dance partner, and secretly took Ruan to North Sichuan Road Henry rented a light gauze dress .This ball was decorated gracefully and elegantly, with a swallowtail floating round and round, and a bare shoulder swaying soft clouds. Everyone looked carefully and realized that the beautiful woman with a beautiful appearance and leaning against the dust was Ruan, who had just been admitted. Yuying.After she got out of the limelight this time, she strengthened her determination to join the film industry.

In the spring of the 14th year of the Republic of China, Star Company was preparing to start filming "The Couple in Name", and Zhang Zhiyun was originally scheduled to play the leading role.Because Zhang Zhiyun and Tang Jishan just lived together, Tang Jishan violated the temper of the young master and refused to let Zhang Zhiyun come back to film.Zhang Shichuan accepted Bu Wancang's suggestion and advertised in the newspaper to recruit heroines, but because of the conservative social atmosphere at that time, ladies and professional women, although they wanted to apply for the exam, most of them lacked the courage.

Because Ruan's family was poor, everyone said she had a "Camera Feisi", so she took the exam under the name "Ruan Lingyu" without telling her mother.At that time, Ni Hongyan, a filmmaker who had debuted for the first time, was in love with Zheng Xiaoqiu. She was afraid that someone would squeeze her out of the chance to be the leading role. Instigated by Ni Hongyan, Qiu obstructed Zhang Shichuan and his father Zheng Zhengqiu in every possible way.Thanks to the strong support of the star actress Zhao Jingxia, and Ren Jinping's righteous words, Ruan Lingyu was hired to star in her first film "The Famous Couple" with Gong Jianong and Huang Junfu.

Huang Junfu is from Pudong. He was originally a pork vendor in Xinzha Road Vegetable Market.He played the role of Ruan's husband in the play. Director Bu taught him to express various expressions of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. He always made mistakes and NG repeatedly.Ruan Lingyu was stage fright when she first appeared on camera, and because of Huang Junfu's disturbance, the filming almost stopped, so the first half of Ruan's debut work "The Famous Couple" was not smooth. , grief-stricken performances, her genius acting skills to the fullest.Several directors of the star company, Hong Shen, Ren Jinping, and Zhang Shichuan agreed that she was more involved in the drama than Ding Ziming, and since then laid the foundation for her to gain a foothold in the film industry.

Although Ruan Lingyu is charming and charming, with bright eyes and eyes that make people dare not stare at them, but Yang Naimei's "Family of the Newcomer" has a high box price and is very popular in the film industry. Zheng Zhengqiu is also superstitious about martial arts movies. In addition, Hu Die made a splash in "Burning the Red Lotus Temple" with her flamboyant beauty and intoxicating pear vortex. Ruan Lingyu can only be filmed in "Luoyang Bridge" and "Baiyun Tower" based on classical novels. Spin around in low-quality movies like Lifetime.Her pure and beautiful character, met with such neglect, naturally sighed and felt sorry for her loneliness.

Li Zhusun sometimes met her, and always asked her to vomit her bitterness at the Maxim Cafe in the racetrack.Once she said that recently she was so depressed that she couldn't even control her emotions. When she was on camera, she couldn't cry when she should cry, and couldn't laugh when she should laugh.Because she played opposite Zhu Fei, she had more contact with him, and she also knew that Zhu Fei was sensual and his colleagues had a bad reputation for him, so she kept on guard against suspicion, but Zhang Shichuan was furious, and he gave Zhu Fei a scolding on the set.At that time, "Mei Lin Yuan" was filming, but when Zhu Fei got emotional, he shaved his head like a bald head and couldn't join the film. In the end, "Mei Lin Yuan" was aborted because of Zhu Fei's rogue. "Please think about this situation for me. Can I still stay in Star Company?" After saying this for two months, she transferred to Lianhua Film Company.

Luo Mingyou of Lianhua is more innovative than the star Zheng Zhengqiu and Shao Zuiweng of Tianyi, so the screenwriters and directors under his banner are all trendy.Ruan Lingyu's first film "Wild Grass and Idle Flowers" after joining Lianhua was directed by Sun Yu. Regardless of the plot structure, lighting and scenery, and the actor's confession, it gave people a refreshing feeling.In particular, Ruan Lingyu's "Human Way", "The Great Road", "Fragrant Snow Sea", "Three Modern Women" and other films were all sold out at every show.At that time, Hu Die and Tianyi Chen Yumei, the mainstays of the stars, had no choice but to be invincible.Now Chen Yanyan, who occasionally participates in TV dramas in Taiwan, is a good partner of Ruan Lingyu in Lianhua back then.Thousands of movie fans worshiped Ruan crazily back then, only the later brother Liang Lingbo could compare, and there was no third person who could stand shoulder to shoulder with her!

Ruan Lingyu was originally from Sanshui, Guangdong. Her father was in the boat running business, but unfortunately died early.The widowed mother and young children were displaced, but the mother was a helper and came to Shanghai. Ruan successively studied in Chongde Wuben Girls' High School, but failed to graduate because of the poor family.Zhang Damin, a fellow villager, runs a wide-ranging goods business in Shanghai. Seeing that her mother and daughter are struggling, he helps her from time to time.Zhang Dingnei was in trouble, the mother and daughter of the Ruan family were grateful for Zhang Damin's daily helping hand, Ruan took the initiative to go to Zhang's family to wear the funeral ceremony, because although the wedding was not held during the service, they actually lived together and gave birth to a daughter named Xiaoyu .

She joined the film industry, and Zhang Damin was extremely opposed to dissuading her, so he left Shanghai angrily, and went to Fuzhou to do business.At this time, Ruan Lingyu was transferred from a celebrity to Lianhua, and gradually became popular, and she had more entertainments. Once at a dance in the Dahua Hotel, she met Tang Jishan, a tea merchant, through the introduction of Xu Xinfu.Tang's appearance is elegant, his conversation is handsome, and his hands are generous, so not long after the two dated, Ruan's mother and daughter moved to the Tang Mansion in Qinyuan Village on Xinzha Road, where Ruan took over Zhang Zhiyun's position. Became the new hostess of Qinyuan Village.

Zhang Dashi heard that Ruan Lingyu had thrown herself into Tang Jishan's arms without making a sound, so he rushed back to Shanghai and hired a lawyer to write to Tang Jishan, accusing Tang of embezzling property and preparing to appeal to justice.Tang said that the mother and daughter of the Ruan family voted alone, but where did they get their belongings? He accused Chen of all points of false accusation, and hired a lawyer to sue Zhang Damin for defaming his reputation.Zhang was instructed by a wise person to accuse Tang of harming the family. This scandalous news in the film industry immediately caused a sensation in the whole Shanghai. During the mutual control period between Zhang and Tang, newspapers and magazines in Shanghai that specialize in murderous sex news not only exaggerated the big events, but also made pictures out of nothing. A certain March issue even wrote a few white pockmarks in Ruan Lingyu's nose as lace news, and some public opinion He even accused Ruan of being ungrateful and vain.Ruan Lingyu almost had a nervous breakdown, so she had to avoid the hustle and bustle and hide in Jiuhua Mountain to meditate and cultivate her character.But after not staying for long, all sorts of bizarre scandals spread to the mountains again, so I hurried back to Shanghai. Li Zhusun's elder brother is a well-known astrologer in Shanghai. He showed Ruan the horoscope and said that if Ruan's horoscope was accurate, he would not even be able to escape the vernal equinox.Li Zhusun gave her to Hei Qiaosong to occupy Liuren God class, which was also a big disaster.At that time, Yan Fusun, a Luotuo literati in Shanghai who was proficient in Yi theory, specialized in testing people's characters on the street.Li Zhusun gave her the characters "He" and "Yin". Yan Fusun said: "The word "He" has no reconciliation. , The murderous opportunity has been revealed, so be careful." Li Zhusun's three questions were all vicious, and he knew that something was wrong.Sure enough, on March 7th, the 24th year of the Republic of China, she felt that people's words were scary, and she took a lot of sleeping pills. Tang Jishan discovered it early the next morning and sent her to Baolong Hospital for treatment.Because she has the determination to die, the sleeping pills are powerful, and there is no cure. She is a wonderful flower in the film industry. In the past ten years or so, the author met Xu Xinfu when she had a casual meal with her in-laws in Taichung. They hadn't seen each other for many years, and they ate a few more drinks. I didn't realize that I talked about Ruan Lingyu.He said that the dramatist Yu Shangyuan told Wang Ruilin that Chinese female movie stars, if they can do 50% of what the director said, they are already talented, and Ruan Lingyu can do 70% or 80%. I dare not say, but I haven't found it yet!Ruan's talent, from these few words of Mr. Xu, can be more than half thought.
