In fact, Yang Ziqiong has enough confidence. She used to be a rich woman with a good family and a beauty pageant champion with a poor face value, but she just didn't want to be too broad and inappropriate, and she was bent on "hitting women" and was scarred all over.

Now, she is over 60 years old, rich and famous, willing to dress up as an old woman, be a "declining woman" and win the international film queen in one fell swoop. She has proved by action:

Sister's tough life needs no explanation, just do it!

/Won the miss congeniality championship at the age of 20,

White is also a "rich harvester"/

When it comes to Yang Ziqiong, the label that netizens automatically appear is "hitting women" as the older generation said. Most of the "beating women" at that time were forced by the environment. They have no money, no face and no chance, so they can only make a living by playing opera.

Yang Ziqiong, who was beaten on the set, is a real "white rich beauty".

Yang Ziqiong, a native of Fujian, is a Malaysian Chinese. She was born in Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia, 1962. Her grandfather was a traffic king in Malaysia in the 1930s, her father was the most distinguished Datuk in Malaysia, and her mother was elected as "Miss Thunderbolt" in a beauty contest when she was young.

The Yang Ziqiong family's goal is to cultivate a girl into a lady who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting according to the growth standards of upper-class girls, and receive elite education from an early age.

So Yang Ziqiong began to study ballet at the age of 4, and 15 went to England to study dance and art. As a result, because of an unexpected spinal injury, she had to give up her ballet dream and study drama instead, and finally graduated with a bachelor's degree in dance drama.

From 65438 to 0983, Yang Ziqiong took part in a beauty contest after graduation and won the title of "Miss Malaysia" in one fell swoop. Later, she ran for Miss World on behalf of Malaysia and finally won the honor of "Miss Melbourne".

After appearing in the beauty contest, Yang Ziqiong was favored by many advertisers, and co-produced advertisements with Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat.

Later, Yang Ziqiong stepped into the entertainment circle, with Joey Wong, Maggie Cheung and Anita Mui in the same box, regardless of face value, temperament and gas field.

In fact, Yang Ziqiong not only has money at home, but also can find a partner who is either rich or expensive.

1984, introduced by a friend, Yang Ziqiong met Pan Disheng, a Hong Kong businessman. Pan Disheng is also a rich second generation, and Yang Ziqiong is suitable.

When he was young, Pan Disheng got $654.38 million from his father and successfully started a business. His business includes watches, department stores and fashion retail. Later, he also entered the film industry and founded Debao Film Company with Sammo Hung. Yang Ziqiong made many films in his film company in his early years.

1988 February, Yang Ziqiong and Pan Disheng got married. Pan Disheng is a traditional person, and he hopes that Yang Ziqiong can return to his family after marriage. Yang Ziqiong agreed at first, and retired after getting married.

However, Yang Ziqiong soon discovered that she was unhappy. She is used to controlling her own pace of life and making her a forbearing wife of a wealthy businessman, which makes it difficult for her to get used to it.

Three years later, the two divorced because they claimed that they were "mismatched". Pan Disheng remarried soon, reportedly to Yang Ziqiong's best friend.

Later, he got engaged to an American cardiologist, and was associated with Yang, the young master of Miramar Hotel, and Zhong Zaisi, the boss of Huanya, and was regarded as a "rich harvester".

Yang Ziqiong's current boyfriend, Jean Todt, is also a super rich man. He is the former CEO of Ferrari and the former president of FIA.

He was born a racing driver and once led a Ferrari team. It was he who recruited Schumacher into the team, brought the team back to life and became the "F 1 godfather" in one fell swoop. Before, they went out and drove a Maserati with a striking license plate. FIA is the abbreviation of FIA, and 0 1 stands for "first".

They have been together since 2004. It is said that this man fell in love with Yang Ziqiong at first sight in Shanghai. Today, the two have been dating for more than ten years, and they are not married or have children.

However, the relationship between them is very good. They have all kinds of intimate photos in private and appear on the red carpet in public. Both of them love to travel and spend a lot of money on luxury houses all over the world, such as the Geneva luxury house in the following18th century.

Yang Ziqiong likes respect and equality between two people. No one has to make concessions for anyone's career. Some people take turns to pay, which is evenly matched.

/A rich girl insisted on "hitting girls".

Become a woman who is afraid of Jackie Chan/

In fact, even Jackie Chan dared not expect anything in front of Yang Ziqiong.

You know, she was once regarded as "the only woman Jackie Chan was afraid of". Jackie Chan once said that women should stay at home and cook and do nothing but Yang Ziqiong.

Yang Ziqiong angrily denounced Jackie Chan as a male chauvinist and once quipped: "He dare not look down on me because I will kick his ass."

However, it may be hard for you to imagine that such a "domineering" Jianghu Leng Yan woman was so innocent when she was young, even as weak as a pear flower.

1984, when Yang Ziqiong first entered the entertainment circle, he was positioned as a "vase" by the company because he was a beauty pageant champion. In her first film Owl and Dumbo, Sammo Hung was in charge of fighting, while Yang Ziqiong was in charge of beauty and bullying.

However, Yang Ziqiong is not reconciled. She offered to Sammo Hung: "I want to try making action movies."

At first, Sammo Hung didn't think highly of her, thinking that a rich girl couldn't bear the pain.

So, Yang Ziqiong cut off her long hair, lifted weights, hit sandbags and ran, and practiced for five or six hours every day, no different from other martial arts men. With the physical advantages of practicing dance since childhood and the practice of not being afraid of hardship, Yang Ziqiong quickly mastered the martial arts skills in the film.

1985, Yang Ziqiong was successfully transformed into an actress with the series of movies "The Queen's Sister" and was nominated for the Best Newcomer in the Hong Kong Academy Awards. In the eyes of Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and other male stars, it has become a beautiful landscape.

Since then, Yang Ziqiong has started a dangerous and brilliant career of "beating women", and every time he shoots a martial arts drama, Yang Ziqiong seems to be fighting for his life.

1992, Yang Ziqiong had an accident during skydiving while filming "Police Story 3". When she jumped, the protection mechanism failed, and she fell to one side, causing multiple fractures.

1995, Yang Ziqiong filmed the story of Akin. He fell from a bridge more than 30 meters high and couldn't move at once. He sprained his neck, back and waist, broke three ribs and was almost paralyzed. Later, the film made a special apology in the subtitles.

While filming Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, she filmed night martial arts scenes for several days. A swing kick broke two main ligaments in her left knee. She went back to Beijing to shoot only one month after the operation in the United States, and pulled her hamstring two weeks later.

Even Jackie Chan told her "it's too dangerous, don't do it again", and Yang Ziqiong just smiled and responded, "Then why did you do it?" Later, both of them were blacklisted by the insurance industry in Hong Kong.

Yang Ziqiong, who worked hard, also fought her way out and became the chief actress recognized in Hong Kong. In the year of 1993 alone, she took on six action films: Hero Trio, Super Plan, Three Fortunes in Zhang Chi, The Legend of Modern Heroes, New meteor butterfly sword and Seven Princess Martial Arts.

In these films, Yang Ziqiong's acting skills are a big selling point. On the contrary, Donnie Yen, Yu Rongguang, Emil Wakin Chau and DAMIAN LAU became "vases".

From 65438 to 0997, Yang Ziqiong officially entered Hollywood and starred in the 007 series Empire of Tomorrow, becoming the first "bond girl" in Asia. At that time, she directly took the Hong Kong Wushu team across the ocean to the set, and it was useless to be double.

In the end, Yang Ziqiong broke the fate that "Bond girl" could only be a vase in the past, and became a partner of Bond's mission, which triggered a wave of international thoughts.

American Entertainment Weekly commented: "Yang Ziqiong is not the first Bond girl who is equal to Bond, but she is the only striking woman who has laid a solid foundation in Hollywood with her beautiful skills."

The British Times commented, "The significance of this bond girl lies in breaking the traditional western concept of passive obedience of oriental women".

In 2000, Yang Ziqiong starred in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon directed by Ang Lee and won four awards, including the best foreign language film at the 73rd Academy Awards. Yang Ziqiong also gained a firm foothold on the international stage with his superb acting skills.

After Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was a great success, 38-year-old Yang Ziqiong decided to transform. She wants to tear off the label of "beating women" and try to figure out more roles, thus shaping a group of calm, dignified, graceful and generous female roles.

For example, in Memoirs of a Geisha, which won three Oscars in 2006, she was a beautiful feather with delicate appearance.

She is a proud and dignified rich woman in Crazy Rich Asians, which won the box office title in North America three weeks after its release.

In the biopic Aung San Suu Kyi nominated by "1 1 Peace Film Award", she is an elegant legendary female politician in Myanmar.

After watching this movie, even Ang Lee was full of praise: "I always thought Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was the peak of Yang Ziqiong, but I didn't expect her to surpass it again!"

Nowadays, with the amazing acting skills in A Moment of the Universe, Yang Ziqiong has once again become the focus of international film industry and is known as "the light of China".

Standing on the podium, Yang Ziqiong recalled that when he first came to Hollywood, he was told that he was a "minority" and was asked, "Do you speak English?" Then he smiled and said that he replied, "Yes, it takes 13 hours to fly here. I learned it on the way."

/being urged to be "domineering",

Do your best to break the prejudice against women/

Unexpectedly, after winning the Golden Globe Award, Yang Ziqiong was urged to speak, full of domineering, causing ripples.

At the scene, playing the piano prompted the staff in Yang Ziqiong to stop their movements in surprise. .......

Off-site, foreign media also said: "Yang Ziqiong's response at the Golden Globe Award is so handsome";

"Why is Yang Ziqiong's Shut Up meaningful to Asian women?"

On the red carpet, "Spider-Man" Andrew Garfield gave Yang Ziqiong a "Wan Fu Jinan" directly. Inner OS: Sister, please accept my knees. ......

In fact, Yang Ziqiong's seal is of great significance even without the episode of Returning to China.

Standing on the podium, Yang Ziqiong said that she was 60 years old last year. Like many women present, with the growth of age, she can play less and less roles, but The Instant Universe has given her a great turning point in her life.

Yang Ziqiong sighed. I have been working hard for so many years, looking at my peers, and I feel very sorry. "Now, I finally feel the feeling of being seen."

In fact, it is not surprising that she won this award. As early as the North American premiere of Instant Universe, the scene was extremely hot. According to the statistics of netizens, the audience applauded 32 times and laughed 46 times.

After that, "rotten tomatoes" gave a freshness of 97%, and even the harsh media evaluation MTC scored 8 1, and won the first wave of "must-see" certification since the beginning of 2022.

So, what kind of movie is this? Why do you want to watch Yang Ziqiong?

In fact, the instant universe is a common superhero story in America. The difference is that the protagonist this time is Chinese immigrant aunt Xiulian. Xiulian saves the world by connecting herself in different universes and becoming a superhero.

In this film, Yang Ziqiong played many roles, and the image of a female star, an ordinary aunt or a woman was accurately grasped by her. Daniel, one of the directors of this film, even said:

"No one else in this world can play this role. If Yang Ziqiong refuses, the film is likely to be yellow. "

The superhero setting in this film was originally: an ordinary person suddenly has unlimited power. At the beginning of the script creation, the director intended to tailor the role for Jackie Chan.

But then they found the wife's setting more interesting and decided to change the protagonist to a woman. In the director's view, such a female role must belong to Yang Ziqiong.

At first, when Yang Ziqiong received the script, he became interested in the story. But it is not easy for her to play this role well, and many things need to be overthrown.

Looking back on Yang Ziqiong's previous works, directors often choose her to play an elegant and restrained woman who "beats women". The early Xiulian was a "declining woman" and a middle-aged "ordinary citizen".

In order to play this role well, Yang Ziqiong must give up his elegant posture and make himself old and ugly. She has to practice her tired posture, make her figure bloated with props and increase age spots on her face.

When I first saw myself like this, Yang Ziqiong almost collapsed: it was terrible, and I comforted myself, "Good, this is definitely not you".

In this play, Yang Ziqiong, who has been filming for decades, was asked for the first time: "Can you stop being so cool?" ? Don't make it so perfect. "She should think carefully about how to make Xixi look like an inexperienced middle-aged woman instead of a" woman ".

In this regard, many people think that Yang Ziqiong has achieved great success. Why is she so serious? Isn't she afraid of losing her virginity? What if the movie "Jumping the Street", wouldn't she become a laughing stock?

Director Dan Guandu commented: "After she has been so successful, she is still willing to devote 65,438+065,438+00% of her energy to play such a role in a down-to-earth manner. This is a miracle for Yang Ziqiong himself. "

In Yang Ziqiong's view, this role gives her a chance to prove to everyone that she can be funny, true and sad. She can do anything.

She also showed people that a 60-year-old Asian Hollywood actress can stand at the top.

Before winning the Golden Globe Award, Yang Ziqiong was selected as an iconic figure in Time magazine in 2022, becoming the first China actress to win this honor in history.

In addition, Yang Ziqiong won the 94th National Review Award "Shadow Queen" at the National Review Award (NBR) for "The Instant Universe". Yang Ziqiong also became the first Asian actress to win this honor in 45 years.

In fact, the National Review Committee Award and the Golden Globe Award have always been called "Oscar weathervanes". Therefore, foreign media are now expecting:

"Will Yang Ziqiong be an Oscar winner?"

In fact, Yang Ziqiong has been breaking prejudice with strength for decades, just to prove to the world:

A woman can be as elegant as a queen or as tough as a warrior!
