Two years ago, "The famous actor Zhang Guoli The news that his son hit someone and injured him exploded like a bomb in the entertainment industry. Subsequently, amid overwhelming media reports across the country, Zhang Guoli's son Zhang Mo also became famous, but he gained notoriety.

Because he resented his father's divorce from his mother and his neglect of him, Zhang Mo once opposed his father everywhere. He was unruly, playing rock music, racing cars... until he violently beat people. For this son, Zhang Guoli endured countless pains, humiliations and pressures that outsiders could not imagine, but he could not get his son's understanding. The father and son were once strangers.

After the "Zhang Mo beating" incident, the father and son have remained silent to the media.

Recently, Zhang Guoli and his son accepted an exclusive interview with our special reporter and told the media for the first time about their unusual father-son relationship for more than 20 years.

Absence of father’s love

Son uses rebellion to gain attention

Zhang Mo was born in Chengdu in July 1982. He is the son of Zhang Guoli and his ex-wife Ms. Luo. When Zhang Mo was born, the 28-year-old Zhang Guoli was a minor role in the Sichuan People's Art Theater. He had ups and downs in the industry and suffered a lot. Therefore, he hoped that his son would not enter the entertainment industry when he grew up and could live an ordinary life in obscurity, so he named his son "Mo".

The year after his son was born, Zhang Guoli left Sichuan to pursue his career in the Beijing film and television industry, leaving his young son in the care of his wife, who is also an actor. Perhaps time and distance are really a sharp edge in relationships. After Zhang Guoli had been living in Beijing for several years, he finally divorced his wife due to various reasons. Although his son Zhang Mo was given custody by Zhang Guoli, because Zhang Guoli was away filming for many years, he had no time to take care of Zhang Mo, so Zhang Mo still lived with his mother when he was a child.

Perhaps due to the lack of father's love since childhood, Zhang Mo developed an introverted and even somewhat weak character. When he was in school, he was often bullied by naughty male classmates, and he always suffered silently.

One day, Zhang Mo was beaten by a boy who was older than him. His face was bruised and purple. When he returned home, his mother was so distressed that she shed tears. She pulled him and wanted to settle the score with the boy. However, Zhang Mo held his mother back and endured the pain and said to her: "Don't go. I will complain this time. He will beat me again next time." It is said that children from single-parent families mature precociously. Zhang Mo's words made his mother secretly Wiping away tears

Zhang Guoli and Zhang Mo's father and son acted opposite each other in "The Dragon is Not a Dragon or a Phoenix Not a Phoenix"

Growing up, due to the fact that they spent less time together with their father and spent more time away from each other, , his father Zhang Guoli seemed very unfamiliar to Zhang Mo. Later, Zhang Guoli and Deng Jie fell in love and reorganized their family. After Zhang Mo learned about the news of his father's remarriage, he seemed very quiet, but underneath his quiet appearance, he felt deep resentment towards his father in his heart. He felt that his father had abandoned him. The gap between father and son deepened.

After remarrying, Zhang Guoli and his wife became a couple, and their acting career quickly became prosperous. However, for Zhang Mo, the more opportunities the audience has to see Zhang Guoli, the less opportunities he has to see his father.

Zhang Guoli’s schedule is full, and he has less and less time to reunite with his son Zhang Mo. When Zhang Mo was 14 years old, Zhang Guoli took him to settle in Beijing. However, when he arrived in Beijing, Zhang Mo still rarely saw his father. Every time he saw his father, he was on the set or on the crew. For this reason, Zhang Mo felt very aggrieved. In his opinion, his father did not love him at all. In fact, Zhang Guoli loved Zhang Mo very much. After marrying Deng Jie, he decided not to have children because he was worried that Zhang Mo had other ideas. Although Zhang Guoli loves his son very much, whenever he sees Zhang Mo, he can't help but find fault with him, perhaps because he hates iron. But after Zhang Mo turned 16, he began to show the unique rebelliousness of adolescence. No matter what his father said to him, he resisted. Zhang Guoli hoped that he would study abroad and learn serious knowledge. But Zhang Mo ignored his father's plans for him. The procedures for studying abroad were completed, but he was determined not to go. He fell madly in love with playing rock music and formed a band with his friends.

Every day, Zhang Mo carries a broken guitar on his back, wears tattered clothes, and shouts music that makes his dog tremble after listening to it.

This made Zhang Guoli very disgusted. In his eyes, his son had become an out-and-out "problem boy"; but in Zhang Mo's subconscious, he wanted to use this to make his father pay more attention to him.

Zhang Guoli

After becoming obsessed with rock music, Zhang Mo often asked his father for money on the pretext that the school had to pay various fees. After giving money so many times, Zhang Guoli kept an eye on him. Once, Zhang Mo asked his father for another 500 yuan on the pretext that the school had to pay a materials fee. Zhang Mo took the money and went out. Zhang Guoli happened to have a rest that day, so he followed quietly. Unexpectedly, Zhang Mo didn't go to school at all, but went directly to a musical instrument store. It turned out that Zhang Mo had frequently asked for money during this period, but actually used all of it to buy things like guitars and drums.

Zhang Guoli was furious. In order to force Zhang Mo to give in, quit rock music and follow the "righteous path", he hard-heartedly kicked Zhang Mo out of the house, let him live in school, and only gave him 100 yuan per week for living expenses. .

Zhang Guoli thought, let’s see how you continue to mess around!

However, Zhang Guoli made a completely wrong calculation. One day, he suddenly received a call from a friend saying that Zhang Mo was singing in the underground passage. When Zhang Guoli heard this, his head was pounding. He hurriedly ran over and took a look. Zhang Mo was shouting at the top of his lungs at the onlookers. In a shoe box at his feet were scattered many small bills and coins - this was not the son of a famous actor, he was clearly a beggar. !

Zhang Guoli was so angry that he rushed forward and pulled his son out. He roared at his son: "No matter how hateful I am, you won't be reduced to a singing gig, right?" Zhang Mo raised his neck and said stubbornly: "It's nothing, I think it's quite a bargain. I already like singing. , Sitting there and singing makes me happy, and I can still make money, so why not do it?" This incident made the relationship between father and son even worse. For a while, they didn't say a word when they met. explain.

At the age of 18, Zhang Mo wrote his first song "18 Years Old". The lyrics are: "I am 18 years old this year, don't worry about smoking and drinking..." Zhang Mo was quite proud of his song, but Zhang Guoli became very angry after listening to it, and ordered him not to sing anymore, and would break his legs if he dared to sing. .

When Zhang Mo heard this, he rushed downstairs and sang loudly at his father's window. When Zhang Guoli ran out to catch him, he ran away...

With his father After years of struggle, Zhang Mo can always find a way to deal with his father. He saw other rock youths having a row of small holes pierced in their ears and wearing all kinds of exaggerated earrings. He thought it was quite avant-garde and wanted to get them pierced. But he knew that his father would definitely object, so he decided to kill it first and then tell the story later. He secretly got his ears pierced and lived in school. After the earrings were put in and the flesh had grown, he deliberately ran to his father to show off. Before his father could scold him, he ran away. . A few days later, when his father had almost forgotten about the incident, he ran to his father and repeated it again. After doing this again and again, Zhang Guoli could only accept that row of earrings!

Zhang Guoli never dreamed that his son would be so rebellious. He sadly believed that his son was hopeless except for taking drugs...

"The Beating Incident"

Celebrity dad is furious

Just when Zhang Guoli was worried about his son's future, Zhang Mo suddenly made a decision that surprised his father: learn acting.

It turned out that as he got older, all the friends who played rock music with Zhang Mo dispersed. He felt idle. Seeing that he was about to graduate from high school, he had to think about the future. Although he is very rebellious, his parents are both actors, which had a subtle influence on him since he was a child. He loves acting in his heart.

Zhang Guoli was very happy and wanted to take time to tutor his son. However, Zhang Mo did not accept his father's favor and decided to work hard on his own and get admitted to the Central Academy of Drama to show his father who looked down upon him. Zhang Mo led a group of his close classmates to rehearse skits until midnight every day. After a period of careful preparation, in September 2000, Zhang Mo finally got his wish and was admitted to the Department of Chinese Opera Performance.

When Zhang Mo filled out the application form, in order to prevent his classmates and the school from knowing that he was the son of the famous star Zhang Guoli, he deliberately added a bracket after Zhang Guoli's name in the father column, indicating that he was a "laid-off employee." In school, Zhang Mo never mentioned his father. He didn't want to be under his father's halo.

Friends all believe that Zhang Guoli has a good income and will try his best to satisfy his son materially.

But in fact, Zhang Guoli was very strict with his son financially. After Zhang Mo went to college, Zhang Guoli only gave his son 1,500 yuan for living expenses every month and would never show any extra kindness. This amount is average for an art school like China National Theater. Zhang Mo had some complaints about this, but there was nothing he could do about it.

When he was a freshman, Zhang Mo was obsessed with road racing for a while. However, a racing motorcycle costs at least 10,000 yuan. After saving for more than half a year, he was still short of 3,000 yuan. Zhang Mo went to Zhang Guoli to advance two months' living expenses, and happily drove his motorcycle home. But two months of living expenses are gone, and there is no place to earn money, so I can only go hungry. It was too much to bear, so he had to humble himself and ask his classmates to borrow money to tide him over.

When Zhang Guoli learned that Zhang Mo was drag racing, he was very worried about his safety and immediately told him that as long as he saw Zhang Mo's car, he would leave it with only one tire left within five minutes.

Zhang Mo knew that his father could do whatever he said, so he could only quietly turn motorcycles underground. Later, Zhang Mo also realized that drag racing was dangerous and that if he was injured, his acting career might be affected, so he stopped racing and gave away the car he finally saved up to buy.

When he was a sophomore in college, Zhang Mo fell in love with Tong Yao, a girl from the same school. Unexpectedly, this love affair would lead to disaster. On the night of December 16, 2003, Zhang Mo had a dispute with Tong Yao. In anger, they fought and injured Tong Yao. This dispute was originally an ordinary dispute between young lovers, but Zhang Mo's special identity as the son of Zhang Guoli was exposed, making this news immediately "gold-rich". As soon as the "Zhang Mo beating" incident was reported, it immediately caused a "big earthquake" inside and outside the circle, and became a hot topic. For a time, reporters from hundreds of news media across the country gathered for interviews, and thousands of news units competed to publish the news. With the media's in-depth involvement, some teachers, students, and leaders of the school were also involved... At the center of the whirlpool. Zhang Guoli and Zhang Mo's father and son have endured unprecedented pressure.

After the "beating" incident, Zhang Guoli rushed to the school immediately, sincerely apologized to the victim on behalf of his son, and begged the media not to hype it up. However, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind is not stopping. No one can understand the painstaking efforts of a father, and the storm becomes more and more intense. Under heavy pressure, China National Theater made the decision to order Zhang Mo to drop out of school.

Zhang Guoli was extremely anxious. Regardless of his face, he took his son to the school leader and begged: "I am usually too busy and did not communicate with him. He did such a thing. As a father, I You can't shirk responsibility. It's all my fault for not being strict in discipline. Please give him a chance and give me a chance. I can't let my child be ruined." However, Zhang Mo was eventually expelled from the school.

After the punishment results were announced, Zhang Guoli was so sad that he locked himself in his room and cried, feeling that he had caused his son to be harmed. He said to his wife Deng Jie: "If Zhang Mo was not my son, the matter would not be a big deal and he would not be fired!"

Not long after the incident happened, Zhang Guoli came with the crew of the movie "Mobile Phone" Go to Chongqing for publicity. But all the reporters who came to interview asked him about "Zhang Mo beating people". Zhang Guoli, who had been surrounded by pressure and guilt, saw that everyone was still holding on to the matter, and suddenly felt dizzy. He suffered a heart attack. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured after rescue in time. To this day, Zhang Guoli still feels that his son's failure to obtain the glittering graduation certificate from China Drama is an eternal pain in his heart.

After this lesson, Zhang Mo suddenly became mature. Originally, he always thought that his father didn't care about him, but in this turmoil, his father's tears, his father's heartache, and everything his father did finally made him understand that his father actually loved him very, very much!

Making up for the situation after the sheep has fallen

Eliminating misunderstandings about the deep love between father and son

After Zhang Mo left school, Zhang Guoli brought him into the crew of his own "Young Prince" and taught him personally acting.

He hopes to make up for the fatherly love he has owed to his son over the years through the day-to-day relationship between father and son.

Zhang Mo's resentment towards his father disappeared, but he felt ashamed of his father in his heart, so he tried his best to avoid his father on the set. Once, the makeup artist of the crew told Zhang Guoli: "Zhang Mo was more active when you were not around; when you came, he stopped talking and left quickly after putting on makeup, as if he was avoiding you."

< p>After hearing this, Zhang Guoli’s eyes became moist.

Facing Zhang Mo, I, as a father, am also under pressure! He always felt that he should act like a father in front of his son and be a role model for him. Unexpectedly, his son did not dare to get close to him. But what pleased him was that the relationship between father and son began to improve after all...

Zhang Mo began to act on the same stage with his father. There were more and more similar topics between the two, and their relationship deepened day by day. . Impressed by his father's talent and dedication, Zhang Mo began to admire his father from the bottom of his heart.

The first time father and son performed together on the same stage was in the TV series "This Is My Life". This drama made Zhang Mo stand out. In April 2005, Zhang Guoli's studio signed a three-year contract with Zhang Mo.

This gave Zhang Guoli another identity in front of his son - boss. Subsequently, the father and son appeared together in the two TV series "Flying Dragon and Heavenly Journey" and "Dragon and Phoenix and Not a Phoenix" directed and starring Zhang Guoli. In "Flying Dragon and Heavenly Journey", "Qianlong" Zhang Guoli and "Fourteenth Prince" Zhang Mo performed the deep love between father and son; and in "Dragon is Not a Dragon or a Phoenix Not a Phoenix", Zhang Guoli played the villain "Prince Shiduo" and Zhang Mo played "Guangxu" "And they are at odds with each other, so the father and son have a lot of rivalry scenes in the two dramas.

In the crew, one is the director and the other is the actor; in life, one is the father and the other is the son. On the set, Zhang Guoli was very protective of his son. As long as Zhang Mo was around, Zhang Guoli's eyes almost never left his son. However, in terms of acting, Zhang Guoli had very strict requirements for Zhang Mo. This kind of harshness even goes far beyond a director's requirements for actors. Sometimes Zhang Mo wants to be lazy, and when Zhang Guoli sees him, he will immediately order his son: "You, come here!" Hearing his father's stern voice, Zhang Mo can only run to his father obediently and listen to his father's teachings: "You are acting like this What's going on? Is this okay?" In Zhang Guoli's view, being strict with his son is love for him.

Wearing Yellow Emperor costumes

Secretly, Zhang Guoli said to others: "My son is good at acting, really good." One day, Zhang Mo heard others say that his father was Praising him behind his back, he was secretly proud and asked his father: "Did you praise me yesterday?" Zhang Guoli immediately straightened his face and said, "What praise? You heard it wrong!"

Although Zhang Guoli has been hiding it in front of his son I admired him, but as time went by, I still showed my flaws. Once, when the crew had dinner together, Zhang Guoli suddenly saw the newspaper report on Zhang Mo. He was so happy that he called his son: "Come and see, Zhang Mo, you are in the newspaper, and someone is praising you!"

Looking outside Zhang Mo's heart was suddenly deeply moved when his serious father behaved like a child in front of others.

　

Zhang Mo once said that he did not want to act in costume dramas anymore but wanted to act in fashion dramas. However, Zhang Guoli arranged two costume films for his son this time. He said sincerely: "You still have a process of growing up. I know what kind of drama will be good for you, and I won't harm you.

Besides, at work, I am your boss; On the set, I am your director, and you must obey my arrangements."

This time, Zhang Mo did not have the same resistance as before, but obeyed the arrangements of his father and boss. Zhang Mo, who was out of his rebellious period, began to understand his father's painstaking efforts. Yes, who knows him better than his father and knows how to regulate his acting career and improve his acting skills?

Deeply feeling his father's hidden love, Zhang Mo was gradually able to understand his father's harshness towards him. Seeing that his father worked very hard, filming during the day, and after finishing work at night, he had to work on the next day's script, and he also had to take time to care about the actors on the crew... Zhang Mo felt very sad. After filming every day, Zhang Mo always goes to his father's room to see him and advise his father to take more rest. Zhang Mo also privately asked the production director and others: "You should take some time to chat with my dad more. Don't let him sit on the sofa and read scripts all day long besides filming." Zhang Guoli is also a director, actor and producer. Of course, he has many roles to play, so he can't take any time off, but he is very pleased with his son's kindness.

While his father worked hard to understand his son, Zhang Mo also began to work hard to understand his father's feelings. In the past, he didn't understand why his father was so opposed to him playing rock music. But one evening, he was wandering alone on the streets in late autumn. The breeze was gentle and the shadows of the trees were swaying. It was a quiet and beautiful night. Suddenly, a burst of hysterical rock music came to his ears, which suddenly ruined the beautiful night.

Zhang Mo suddenly realized something and began to get tired of the kind of venting music. He used to swear and yell at the top of his lungs. It was no longer the sound he liked. Zhang Mo re-wrote something with beautiful melodies. One day, Zhang Guoli saw Zhang Mo's newly composed score on his desk, and he felt very pleased. The next day, Zhang Guoli gave Zhang Mo a check of 10,000 yuan without saying a word, encouraging him to record his songs. From then on, Zhang Guoli often said to Zhang Mo: "Is something wrong? Come into the recording studio and play your music."

On September 23, after Zhang Guoli read this article, he said that he would use this article to publish it. I would like to say a few words to the people who care about and love their father and son: "After the incident of Zhang Mo's beating, I have been unwilling to mention this matter to the media, and no media dared to uphold justice and came to me to understand this matter. The real inside story. I would like to take this opportunity to express my attitude towards this matter. It is wrong for Zhang Mo to hit people. The reason why I let him sign with my company is not to protect him, but because I don’t want my son to think that there is a piece in the sky. The whole sky was dark. In order to dilute the shadow and trauma this incident left on his soul, I chose to let my son stand with me. Since then, the relationship between our father and son has been reversed. This is to give his son a normal growth environment, hoping that he can feel the beauty of life again."

Zhang Guoli took a deep breath and said that he regretted that he had neglected it for the sake of his career. My son's feelings. Fortunately, Zhang Mo has matured a lot now, and the relationship between father and son is getting better and better! In fact, there is no parent who does not love their children, but the way of love is different. He wants to use his own personal experience to warn parents all over the world that when their children are growing up, no matter how busy they are, they must give their children more care.
