The most popular variety show is not "Chasing the Light!" Brother" is none other than "Brother".

In the new episode of the program, the most stunning picture is the 45-year-old middle-aged man singing "A Sovereign in My Heart". He is the once popular Hong Kong singer Chen Xiaodong." I just have a soft spot for you, because I know how deep I am because I have loved you." Nowadays, when the name Chen Xiaodong is mentioned, many people born after 2000 may feel strange. This is not surprising. The audience is a forgetful group of people. After all, he became famous too early and left the stage for too long.

Stand on "Chasing the Light" again! On the stage of "Brother", although the voice is still the same, the dance state is obviously not online. Even Jin Xing bluntly said that he did not practice and his body seemed to be "rusty." During the previous audition, the director team also severely criticized Chen Xiaodong for "not being proficient enough in dance." Although he was an idol of the past generation, the program team was not merciful at all. It seems that time is not forgiving, and it will be difficult for him to return to his original style. After breaking away from Dai Sicong's control, Chen Xiaodong couldn't find a suitable agency for more than a year, and his work stagnated.

It was not until 1999 that Liang Shaoying appeared, served as his manager, and released a new album "Man Like the Wind" that his career gradually picked up. For this reason, Chen Xiaodong was very grateful to Liang Shaoying. He once said frankly in public: "She and I are already married at work." But not long after, Liang Shaoying suddenly jumped from the 22nd floor. With a loud noise, the crowd went wild . Because she did not leave any last words, public opinion once again targeted Chen Xiaodong. As for the reason for her suicide, some people believe that she was under too much pressure at work and became depressed, so she chose to jump off a building to end her life.

The widely circulated rumor is that Liang Shaoying had a crush on Chen Xiaodong, but Chen Xiaodong had a secret affair with Cecilia Cheung, and was trapped by love, unable to love, and had only one death. After the accident, Chen Xiaodong did not appear at the funeral parlor immediately, nor did he show his sorrow in front of the public. Therefore, the voice of public opinion came like a turbulent wave. But in front of the media, Chen Xiaodong never explained that he had always naively believed that "the pure will self-purify", but such a noble character has undoubtedly attracted a lot of "dirty materials" for him. Many years passed before Chen Xiaodong told this story: "Back then, he went to the cemetery to see Liang Shaoying. At three or four in the morning, the cemetery was dark and no one opened the door for him. He had to turn over the door. He entered the wall and didn't know where she was buried, so he could only look for her one by one, and then he sat alone on the tombstone and thought hard for a long time."

But he didn't know that the bad luck was not over yet, and another huge one came. The waves hit him crazily. One day in June 2000, the movie "A Man and a Widow" starring Andy Lau and Sammi Cheng had its premiere. In a restaurant not far from the premiere, the reporter discovered two familiar faces. They were none other than Cecilia Cheung and Chen Xiaodong.

On that day, the two were wearing couple's outfits. Chen Xiaodong held Cecilia Cheung's hand and smiled broadly. After being photographed by the media, Chen Xiaodong did not hide it and made his relationship public in a high-profile manner. After Cecilia Cheung's first admitted boyfriend, "Toshiba Love" was exposed, the two did not shy away from it. Instead, they became more affectionate and became the enviable "golden boy and girl". People say that showing affection will lead to quick death, which seems to make sense. After only 11 months of this relationship, Chen Xiaodong and Cecilia Cheung announced their breakup. No matter how deep they were in love at the beginning, they would be hurt when they broke up.

When Chen Xiaodong was a guest on "Kangxi Is Coming", when the host asked: "How do you feel when you see her and Nicholas Tse together?" He accidentally replied: "She seems to be more than just "Be with him." The meaning couldn't be more obvious, but the connotation is that Cecilia Cheung's private life is quite confusing. Unexpectedly, these words immediately caused an uproar, and Cecilia Cheung's agent Xiang Tai launched a fierce attack on him.

Chen Lan immediately held a press conference to enumerate Chen Xiaodong's "seven deadly sins", including "not using emotions professionally, borrowing Cecilia Cheung to cross the bridge, talking nonsense, having no character and no actions, killing first and telling later, deceiving feelings, and harming others." Not shallow." As a powerful figure in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Xiang Tai has great influence in Hong Kong. This has completely pushed Chen Xiaodong to the bottom. Dai Sicong once angrily denounced him as "ungrateful", and later Chen Lan listed seven deadly sins. It can be said that Chen Xiaodong's "sweetheart man" persona has completely collapsed. "Life is like a reverse journey, and I am also a traveler."

After three major changes, Chen Xiaodong once again gained a foothold in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, so he had to move to the mainland for development. People discovered that he appeared in "A Chinese Ghost Story", which was a collaboration with Big S, and Ning Caichen was Chen Xiaodong.

After experiencing ups and downs in life, when he introduced himself, he was no longer limited to a "singer", but an "actor", and gradually fell in love with acting.

He has been trying to make a comeback and has acted in many films, but most of them were bad films that didn't even make a splash, and even his father couldn't stand it anymore. Chen Xiaodong could only pretend to be relaxed and say: "Slowly act. Look at those idols. They can act in everything. They have a chance only after filming." However, just like his meek character, Chen Xiaodong's development in the mainland was not satisfactory, but But he never considered quitting. Later, I received the script of "The King of Lanling". At first, he was overjoyed and studied the script for a long time. Later, when he found out that he was playing the lead role of Yu Wenyong, he was stunned for a moment.

"The scripts I accepted before always had to be the first male lead. How could I be the second male lead? And the heroine in the script didn't like me?"

But this is it Reality is more exciting than the script. Chen Xiaodong, who has had many twists and turns in his career, has found his love life to be relatively smooth. In 2014, at the age of 39, he got married to 24-year-old nurse Wang Yuxian.

Although the wedding of the two was not particularly grand, it was still romantic and warm. Many friends in the industry came to send blessings. After the marriage, his lovely wife also gave birth to two good-looking daughters for him, and the family of four was considered happy. In order to reward his wife for her hard work, Chen Xiaodong revealed that he had purchased a mansion worth hundreds of millions of NT dollars in Taiwan. He also said that he had prepared a bank card with no limit for his wife. He really showed his love for his wife to the fullest! Someone asked him: "Don't you think you are very unlucky?"

Chen Xiaodong said sincerely:

"I think so. In fact, I think I got everything I deserved. Really, nothing more and nothing less, and I believe that the future will be better."

You can see the clarity in his eyes, and he is still the beautiful young man like light in his heart. Now 45 years old, Chen Xiaodong, although his status in the world is no longer what it used to be, the variety show stage also particularly reflects the changing world of the entertainment industry. But after stumbling around, he also looked down on many things in the world. Let’s start over again, no matter what the outcome is, love what I love, do what I do, no matter what. 44-year-old Chen Xiaodong spent 1 million for a new variety show. He was once the successor of the Four Heavenly Kings. Can he turn around this time?
