Why do they all want to be Sylvia Chang instead of Brigitte Lin?

Who is Sylvia Chang?

It’s not Zhang Jiajia, I haven’t passed by your world

You said you are not familiar with this name, which is actually normal

She is not always remembered like Brigitte Lin The peerless beauty

Although she played Daiyu and Brigitte Lin played Baoyu in the movie

When the two looked at each other with tears and smiled, their hearts were broken

Yesterday the premiere of Jia Zhangke's "Old Friends in Mountains and Rivers" was held, in which Sylvia Chang played an English teacher and collaborated with Dong Zijian in 1993 to perform a year-end love affair. According to media guests who went to watch the movie, there was even a boat scene.

In reality, the age difference between the two of them is 40 years, which is much longer than the relationship between Yan Ni and Hu Ge.

I didn’t see the movie so I didn’t know what the scene was like, but I wasn’t surprised at all.

Sylvia Chang is a woman who likes to try new things and possesses wisdom and elegance, which makes her perfect for this role. Even if you are eighty years old, it would not be surprising if there are young people who appreciate and admire you.

62-year-old Sylvia Chang and 37-year-old Zhao Tao walked the red carpet together, and their temperament and status were not inferior at all.

"Elegant Sixty Years Old"

Many people will mention Sylvia Chang's name when asked about the woman they admire most.

Titles such as "Perfect Woman Sylvia Chang" and "Best Woman Sylvia Chang" are common. I don’t know how many intellectual and talented women want to be a woman like her.

Even in the 1990s, when Jimmy Lam offered a general education course to students at the University of Hong Kong and invited Sylvia Chang to give a lecture, the topic was "Becoming Sylvia Chang".

Later, Lin Yihua talked about the original intention of this course, saying that it was because Sylvia Chang still lived a very modern and self-contained life until she was in her sixties, and never closed herself off. This is worth exploring and understanding for students.

Actresses of the same generation, such as Brigitte Lin, Joey Wong, etc., are all the best actors. After their acting careers ended, they either married their husbands and raised children, or they disappeared from the world. Only she is not content with being an actor, accumulating wisdom and continuing her career.

She never sets limits for herself. It spans different fields such as singers, actors, directors, screenwriters, and producers, and has achieved good results:

"The Price of Love" is still sung today, and has won multiple Academy Awards and Golden Horse Awards. The actress directed and starred in "The Favorite" which won nine Golden Horse Award nominations...

She loves movies and even named her son Oscar.

To this day, she still has not stopped. In the first half of 2015, "Nian Nian", which she wrote and directed, was released; in the second half of the year, "Gorgeous Office Workers", which she wrote and starred in, was released.

This is the first on-screen reunion of her, Johnnie To and Chow Yun-fat's "Iron Triangle" partners after "A Lang's Story" in more than 20 years.

Cancer Chang Sylvia is delicate.

She still carries a notebook with her to jot down things. She jokes that when she was a child, she didn’t want to do her homework when she was studying, but now she has to do all her homework.

She described Chow Yun-fat's appearance on the set of "Gorgeous Office Workers", saying that he would procrastinate and not want to leave. He would greet everyone and say: Hello, I am Chow Yun-fat. "Still so cute, the same Chow Yun-fat who used to wear slippers and run to Kowloon City to buy groceries."

When she was filming "Nian Nian", she asked the photographer to do everything possible to capture Hai's emotions. The photographer asked She asked, "What is Hai's emotion?" She replied, "I don't even know, so we have to capture it."

She arranged for Liang Luoshi and Zhang Xiaoquan to film an intimate scene for the first time they met, so that All people go out and chat with two people, bringing in the mood and atmosphere.

"She can bring out the most natural thing in you, which is the state that you like but usually can't get. She can let you release it." Ke Yulun, who played the brother and sister with Liang Luoshi in the movie, said this .

She has feminine courage. Li Zongsheng, Gigi Leung and others call her "Sister Zhang", and she is also the leader of Rene Liu and Li Xinjie.

Rene Liu once mentioned in an interview that during the time when her relationship was not going well, Sylvia Chang made her cry with just one sentence.

She has never resisted the topic of aging. In the Taiwanese program "Xiaoyan's Night", she and Zhang Xiaoyan lamented how quickly the years passed and said that they would forget things. This was a natural reaction. .

Even now, when she smiles, her smile always reaches her eyebrows and her eyes curl up.

"The Free Twenty Years Old"

What kind of woman is Sylvia Chang?

Writer Lin Yanni once lamented Sylvia Chang's stubbornness: "This woman is never convinced for a day."

Zhang Xiaoyan said in the program that when Sylvia Chang was young, she must work to the point of exhaustion. Until hospitalization.

She signed a contract with Hong Kong's Golden Harvest Film Company at the age of 19, and the dormitory she lived in was Bruce Lee's former room. But she is very thoughtful. When she felt that her first movie "Dragon Tiger King Kong" was a failure, she would directly tell everyone not to watch it.

At that time, she sighed, "I am not the regular person they want."

Later, Zhang Sylvia dated Jin Chuan, an actor from the same company, but the company opposed her. Faced with being hidden. As a result, she immediately terminated her contract with Jiahe the next year.

She said this: "When I was 20 years old, I hoped that a man could give me a romantic feeling and a stable future, so men became very important."

But love in She has never been a ****. After her first relationship ended, she said:

"If I had been a wife since I was 25, I would have been very unhappy. I think men and I should be equal and should not rely on so-called marriage. Relationship."

She never concealed her love affair with Luo Dayou and was called "little sister". She always said that Luo Dayou was very talented.

Her relationship with her current husband will be criticized to some extent because she is the "third party" and got pregnant before marriage. But she said that she never thought that he wanted a divorce at the time, she just went with the flow and met that person and felt that she wanted to have a child.

"I have never followed the trend from beginning to end. The trend has nothing to do with me. I just do my own thing."

"Modern women have a hard time doing things, but I won’t fight for a certain person, I will only fight for what I want to do.”

“I have never been confused.”

That was Zhang Aijia accepting someone. What was said during the interview. Later, Rebecca asked again during the interview. She said:

"The so-called never confused, to be precise, is that I have never had the idea of ??"what should I do". When there is a problem, I just try hard and wait for the answer quietly."

"How to obtain wisdom and elegance"

So, you find out why she receives the respect and admiration of so many people. Already?

Not everyone can become the stunningly beautiful Brigitte Lin, but as long as you have requirements for yourself, you can definitely become the wise and elegant Sylvia Chang.

Rebecca once summarized several reasons why Sylvia Chang is called Sylvia Chang. With slight adjustments, it can be said like this:

1. She knows what she wants and works hard. Get:

It is said that Sylvia Chang always goes to bed early and gets up early, which is completely different from the entertainment industry. Have clear goals, clear preferences, be confident and brave, and work hard. Her life, like Layla before her, has countless fulcrums and will never fade because of others.

2. She has good resources, but she never stops thinking:

Sylvia Chang is lucky, but if there is no luck, she will not be bad. Because she has always been independent and free, good at thinking and accumulating wisdom. It is a book worth reading and re-reading, not just a page of beautiful bookmarks;

3. She knows how to choose, and can take and put away:

Not just feelings, but also life. She wisely chooses what she can do at any stage. After giving birth to a child, you will put the child first, and the child will continue to work hard when he grows up.

4. Maintain curiosity and delicate emotions:

At the age of sixty-two, she still smiles like a flower and tries her best to try everything she can. You, what else can you say?

In fact, it is inappropriate to want to be anyone else. Everyone has their own special trajectory.

I only hope that each of you can be yourself like Sylvia Chang.
