Ruan, the winner of the Shanghai Film Award, mentioned Tang Jishan, a wealthy businessman who lives with her. She is a major shareholder in the film industry. Before pursuing Ruan, Tang Jishan actually lived with another award-winning actress. Tang Jishan's empathy was only touched by the "victim" Zhang Zhiyun. Therefore, this time I want to talk about Zhang Zhiyun, the first movie queen in China.

Zhang Zhiyun, formerly known as Zhang Axi, was originally from Panyu, Guangdong, and moved to Shanghai since childhood. His father died in his early years and his family was in trouble. He dropped out of school before finishing junior high school, and his life depends entirely on his foster mother. In fact, many people think that China's first film queen was Hu Die. In fact, before her, Zhang Zhiyun was already the best actress. From the perspective of modern people, her appearance is not good-looking, but like Ruan, she has some melancholy in her brow. Because of the stolen photos, Zhang Zhiyun was finally excavated by Greater China Film Company. 1924 Recruiting actors in Greater China, taking the mailbox in the declaration hall as the receiving place, received nearly 10,000 photos of women. But so many photos were not selected. Just when the director was worried, I heard that the newspaper people had taken beautiful photos privately before unpacking the box. So, the director came forward to negotiate with the newspaper and asked for those photos. Zhang Zhiyun's photo is among them.

It is understood that Zhang Zhiyun's photos in Yun Yun are not beautiful, but they are precious because they are restored. So Zhang Zhiyun embarked on the road of film. Zhang Zhiyun has little culture and can only speak Cantonese. Fortunately, in her time, it was a silent film era, and language could deceive others. Zhang Zhiyun has a good personality, willing to work hard, modest and studious. The film company is willing to praise her. 1926, the winner was selected. Among the 12 actresses, Zhang Zhiyun was elected with 2 146 votes, becoming the first best actress in China. After Zhang Zhiyun made his mark in Greater China, he was hired by a star company to play Poor Daughter, New Family, Empty Valley and Orchid, etc.

An ordinary woman suddenly becomes a dazzling red star, and naturally there are men behind her. Wancang Bu is one of them. When shooting in Zhang Zhiyun, Wancang Bu was a photographer. His personable manner can also make Zhang Zhiyun's screen image beautiful. Soon the two moved in together. Later, Wancang Bu was promoted to director, and Zhang Zhiyun was the heroine in the play. In the movie "Jade is Clean and Ice is Clear", Zhang Zhiyun plays a country girl, who is lively and naive, heartbroken after lovelorn, sincere and moving, and is called "the master of tragedy".

After successfully filming "Jade Clean and Ice Clear", Zhang Zhiyun was frequently taken to various social places to make friends with dignitaries. At this time, Zhang Zhiyun is no longer the one she was before she became famous. Honor came too early, and the sense of floating brought Zhang Zhiyun into another world, drifting away from Wancang Bu. Wancang Bu was finally rejected by Zhang Zhiyun, and they broke up.

At this time, Tang Jishan, a famous businessman in Southeast Asia, took advantage of it. Tang Jishan loves to play with women. He has a wife in his hometown. Because of her strength, he dare not divorce. Zhang Zhiyun knows this, but she is so red that she doesn't think she is pessimistic. At first, Tang Jishan was very kind to her and took her around Europe. Tang Jishan took her to Hollywood in the hope that she could make a fortune by playing the movie queen, but Hollywood didn't like Zhang Zhiyun at all. Zhang Zhiyun and Tang Jishan have been together for two years, and the film has changed from a silent film to a sound film. Ruan,, began to become new idols, and was gradually forgotten. Later, Tang Jishan went to Ruan. At this point, Zhang Zhiyun's good days are over.

Zhang Zhiyun was abandoned by Tang Jishan and got nothing. When they lived together, they signed a contract that said: If Tang Jishan abandoned Zhang Zhiyun, he should pay Zhang Zhiyun 200,000 yuan. Each party holds one copy as evidence. But the one in Zhang Zhiyun's hand was destroyed by Tang Jishan, so there will be no compensation. Zhang Zhiyun was exhausted by the double blow of career and emotion. She spent all her savings and moved to many cities. It is said that she was once reduced to * * *. In the early 1950s, Zhang Zhiyun settled in Hong Kong, and once returned to Hong Kong to shoot Paradise Beauty. She faded out of public view in her later years, and it is said that she had a hard life and died in the mid-1970s.

China's first winner was miserable in her later years, which made people sad. In fact, Wancang Bu loves her so much that she won't let anyone mention her for a long time after breaking up. Once on the set, I was so sad that I lost my temper on the spot This is another story.
