Lu Yi was really handsome back then, sunny, stylish, and gentlemanly. However, no matter how handsome he was, he was still a newcomer. If he wanted to rise to the top quickly, he had to take a slightly crooked path. He used his sexual skills to get into bed with (Hai Yan), which led to him getting the role in "Death Without Closing Eyes," helping Lu Yi get ahead.
Lu Yi successfully replaced Chen Kun, director Zhao Baogang's backup choice! Zhao Baogang had initially considered using Chen Kun, but his darker complexion made him hesitant. Then Hai Yan introduced a handsome young man, and the two were close friends. With the script and Hai Yan as the investor, and Lu Yi's qualifications being good, it was a natural progression to cast him.
Normally, this wouldn't be a big deal; things like this happen in this industry, so it's not unusual. But Zhao Baogang has a rule that before filming begins, the actors need to get to know each other and rehearse their lines. And that's when the trouble started.
At the time, Yuan Li, a rising star who had just starred in "The Black Hole," took a liking to Lu Yi on their first meeting. He was sunny and handsome, and they would be spending several months together. As the saying goes, "a woman pursuing a man is like piercing a thin veil," and Lu Yi was a young man. Although she knew this was a very important opportunity for her and she couldn't afford to miss it, she couldn't resist his persistent advances.
And so, the two of them, like a bolt from the blue, became entangled in a passionate affair.
They were just a couple working on a film set, and everyone was just having fun. However, Yuan Li, who has always been extreme, started to take this relationship seriously.
(She had a boyfriend back then!) Yuan Li's wealthy boyfriend of nearly a year immediately distanced himself from her after learning about her affair with Lu Yi. However, he still gave her another chance, but she was a crazy woman.
At that critical juncture, she disregarded her boyfriend's feelings and started working with Lu Y for the second time. As a result, Yuan Li completely lost her boyfriend who treated her the best because of her willfulness.
Her wealthy boyfriend is a decent person, a good man who's good at managing a household. If Yuan Li had realized her mistake, things might have turned out well. Unfortunately, Yuan Li didn't know how to cherish him.
Lu Y wasn't stupid either. Although Yuan Yan had given up her boyfriend of many years for him, a woman who could abandon a boyfriend of 10 years might also abandon him one day. So Lu Y continued to do as he pleased.
I admire Lu Y; she did the work of three people: Yuan Li, Bao X, and Boss Hai. Youth is indeed impressive.
Of course, Yuan Li was well aware of the open secret in the entertainment industry that men also date women, but she had great faith in him. Yuan Li believed that he could win over Lu Yi's heart and soul. Therefore, even though she knew that the man was lingering around various women, she surprisingly restrained her temper and endured this period of strife.
She thought she was Lu's final destination, but unfortunately, she was dreaming too much.
Before a year had passed, new girls appeared in Lu Yi's life. Busy filming new dramas and new romances, he no longer focused his attention on Yuan Yi.
This will drive Yuan Li crazy next time, she'll go completely insane!!!
She leaked Lu Y's relationship with Grandpa Hai, as well as her intimate affairs with the man, to her media friends. She thought she could ruin everything, destroy both Lu Y and Grandpa Hai.
Unexpectedly, the message was quickly dealt with as soon as it was sent, and only a few words were heard. Grandpa Hai isn't one to be trifled with.
Lu Y had already made plans for his future. His acting skills weren't great, so he didn't make much progress in his career. He made a promise to marry his longtime lover, Bao X.
Afterwards, a new generation replaced the old, and the situation of only the new laughing and the old crying perfectly satisfied Lu Y's desire to withdraw from the marriage.
Of course, Lu Yi wasn't exactly a good guy when he was young. On screen, he always portrayed the image of a good husband and father, but he was quite the womanizer in his youth.
In 2003, at the height of Lu Yi's popularity, a major scandal broke: his classmate Tian Hairong accused him of deceiving her and calling him a scumbag, forcing her to choose between being with him or with Bao X. Now, when Lu Yi is mentioned, everyone knows that his wife, Bao X, is also an actress.
However, due to a lack of representative works, he rarely makes headlines. Therefore, whether in terms of fame or various fields, Bao X seems to be on a completely different level from Lu Y.
Years ago, before Lu Y married Bao X, the two never hid their relationship. Don't let Bao X's current role as a stay-at-home mom and Lu Y fool you; back then, he was a force to be reckoned with.
In 2003, Lu Yi was one of the most popular celebrities in China, enjoying a smooth career in film, television, and music.
However, the media suddenly broke the news that "Lu Y is a heartless man".
The source of the news was traced back to what appeared to be a post from someone in the same industry, Hai Rong Zui. Naturally, this attracted a large crowd of onlookers.
Just as the media was preparing to hype this up, Bao X stepped forward to criticize: "Hai Rong only did this to gain fame by clinging to Lu Yi!" He even went so far as to release a press release to the media.
Bao X's domineering "protective" attitude is astounding. Not only did he directly attack fellow celebrity Hai Rong, but he also went so far as to claim that Hai Rong was the one who had been with Lu Yi for five years!
Subsequently, media outlets interviewed Lu Y, Bao X, and Hai Rong's classmates at the Shanghai Theatre Academy. The classmates stated that Hai Rong and Lu Y had likely been dating for some time. Some classmates also indicated that Hai Rong had been pursuing Lu Y, but Lu Y had never reciprocated (however, this classmate who gave this response was later confirmed to be Bao X).
It is said that Bao X spent all her time on Lu Yi's film set in order to prevent Lu Yi from contacting other women. As a result, fewer and fewer people wanted to cast him in films.
