A few days ago, Hong Kong director Wong Jing launched a new program "Wong Jing's Laughing at the Wind and Cloud", in which he rarely talked about the old incident in which his ex-girlfriend Qiu Shuzhen was beaten in the street.

He revealed that the incident was caused by the jealousy of another actress, Zhang Min, because the scene of the woman in a red dress holding a playing card in her mouth was too classic during the filming of "God of Gamblers 2".

We are in this matter () has been introduced in the , those who are interested can review it.

In short, this incident directly focused the public's attention on the 8-year-long grievances between the two - but now it has been 27 years since this old relationship ended.

Shu Qi has long been married into a wealthy family and become a "rich wife", but she once tried hard to "have a son" but ended up with regret. Although she is now in a semi-retired state, she has always wanted to send her daughter into the circle.

So, is she really happy?

1. "The Four Beauties of Wireless"

Yau Shu-ching, 56 years old this year, was born in an ordinary family in Hong Kong. Although her parents were not rich, their life was peaceful and warm.

There are 8 children in the family, and she is the fifth, so she is also known as "Miss Qiu Wu".

Qiu Shuzhen has been very outstanding since she was a child, especially her big watery eyes, which everyone liked. Therefore, she was loved by her parents and was sent to learn singing and dancing at a very young age.

At the age of 16, the already graceful and elegant Qiu Shuzhen entered the modeling industry.

Her entry into the industry was simple: she was discovered by a scout while shopping with a friend. When she learned that she could earn 500 yuan by shooting an advertisement, she happily went for it.

During this period, Shu-zhen Yau met a rich second-generation man named Shao Zhongheng, who later entered the entertainment industry.

He fell in love with the girl at first sight and pursued her vigorously, and then became her first love.

The year came to 1987, and 19-year-old Shu-zhen Qiu participated in the beauty pageant that year.

Shao Zhongheng also participated in the "Super Star Competition" held by TVB in the same year. It is rumored that he initially entered the industry just to have more time to spend with his girlfriend.

But the relationship soon ended. Some people said that it was because the man found so many beautiful women after entering the industry and couldn't stand the loneliness so he cheated; but the man said the reason for the breakup was that the woman "changed" after entering the industry.

But it is impossible to judge the specific situation.

Her relationship was not going well, and although her career started off well, it soon encountered resistance. The competition was particularly fierce that year when Shu Qi participated in the beauty pageant, and there was actually a reason behind it.

It is reported that in the previous year's beauty pageant, the champion Li Meishan was exposed to have "made a decision behind the scenes", while the champion of ATV that year, Weng Hong, stole the limelight, putting TVB in an awkward position.

In order to save face, the organizers went to great lengths that year, vowing to regain the face lost the previous year. As a result, the "Miss Hong Kong 87" is recognized as the most valuable pageant of all time.

Shu Qi is one of the best among them, perhaps because of her 360-degree flawless beauty. In that era without filters and beauty effects, she was indeed unique, with both a good figure and good looks.

And Qiu Shuzhen is not just beautiful. When introducing herself, she said:

"I am No. 3 Qiu Shuzhen. I am a very serious person and I work very hard. I have tried to sleep less than 10 hours for 4 days and 4 nights in a row, but I can bear it."

Therefore, she was even once the most popular candidate for the "champion" from the outside world, and was the first to be shortlisted for the top 12. It can be said that her future is bright.

But no one expected that when she was at the height of her fame, Shu-zhen Qiu was suddenly exposed by her rival Huang Ying for having plastic surgery.

The Miss Hong Kong contestants at that time hated plastic surgery and would never tolerate such scandals among contestants.

But in fact, the so-called "plastic surgery" of Shu Qi was actually because she had injured her chin when she was a child, and she had to undergo the surgery as a last resort.

But after the incident fermented, it still caused immeasurable negative impact on her selection. Helplessly, Shu-zhen Qiu chose to withdraw from the competition.

However, she has attracted enough attention in the industry, and her popularity has increased instead of decreased after withdrawing from the competition.

She then successfully signed a contract with TVB and was called one of the "Four Beauties of TVB" along with that year's Miss Hong Kong champion Pauline Yeung, runner-up Mei Feng Lee, and third place winner Angelica Lam.

There is no doubt that the fledgling Shu-ching Yau became TVB's leading actress and immediately made her debut in the TV series "Rookies 1988", in which she played her boyfriend Tony Leung Chiu-wai.

After that, works such as "Sniper Detective" and "Metropolis" were broadcast one after another, but they did not make much splash because their roles were not important.

2. "Naked Lamb"

During this period, Shu-zhen Qiu met a new boyfriend.

After breaking up with Shao Zhongheng, she started a romance with Guan Zhaochang, whose family ran a jewelry business. But later the man's family did not like her career, and the two broke up in a hurry.

Looking back many years later, this decision was the right one.

Because not long after that, Shu-zhen Yau met director Wong Jing, and started her magical journey as the "first generation Jing Girl".

The two fell in love with each other over time and became a pair that everyone envied as a "Hong Kong CP".

But after 8 years of entanglement, this relationship came to an end. After that, Shu-zhen Qiu had more choices in her life.

Wang Jing, who is 13 years older than Shu-zhen Qiu, was born into a film family. His father Wang Tianlin is a big name in the film industry.

He was influenced by this since he was a child, and worked at TVB while studying at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He was also assigned to write jokes in the variety show group.

It was not until 1976 that he finally started his career as a screenwriter, producing classic TV series such as "Lu Xiaofeng" and "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang".

But what really made Wang Jing famous was his first directorial film "The King's Craft" - it is said that this work was only shot in 89 days, but after its release it earned a box office of 5.08 million Hong Kong dollars, which is a miracle.

After that, his career as a director became smoother, and he produced a series of films including "Huo Yuanjia", "New Legend of the Condor Heroes", and "Emerald Jade", becoming one of the most popular directors in Hong Kong.

In his seventh year as a film director, Wong Jing met Shu-ching Yau.

Starting in 1988, the two collaborated on their first movie "Best Friend", with Andy Lau as the male lead and he and the woman playing a couple in the film.

Yau Shu-ching's complex style, which can be pure and playful, sexy and charming, seems to have instantly entered the hearts of thousands of viewers.

At that time, Wang Jing spoke highly of her:

"Hong Kong has no shortage of pretty girls, but the only one who can become popular is Yau Shu-ching."

The reason behind this is that he promoted her one movie after another - the two of them worked together for more than 9 years and shot nearly 30 movies together. Even if Wang Jing was not the director, he was the producer, screenwriter or supervisor. In short, he was indeed everywhere in Shu Qi's short career.

Sparks flew between the two when they worked together that year, and they immediately established a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

However, this relationship is full of controversy, because Wang Jing married the amateur wife Ding Dejun as early as 1978. The two have been together for 46 years. Although they keep a low profile, there has never been any news of a breakup.

Therefore, when people talk about the relationship between Shu-ching Yau and Wong Jing, they can only pass it off as "old love".

In the eyes of the man, Qiu Shuzhen was extremely aggressive at first:

"She is very eye-catching. Since her family is not well off, she is very enterprising and wants to be famous and change her life."

It is true that she worked very hard at one point. In 1992, she produced 8 works at once, including "Naked Lambs", which made Qiu Shuzhen famous.

Wang Jing said in an interview many years later: At that time, it was no longer feasible for Shu Qi to follow the jade girl route, and actresses such as Maggie Cheung and Brigitte Lin were rising, so she needed to transform quickly.

Just as Veronica Yip became famous for her nude scenes, he tailored the film "Naked Lamb" for her.

As a boyfriend, Wang Jing is also very responsible to Qiu Shuzhen, saying frankly, "Under my protection, this kind of sexiness is limited."

Sure enough, after the release of this film, she once again reached the peak of her acting career.

3. “Wealthy Wife”

In the same year that "Naked Lambs" was released, Qiu Shuzhen gained a lot of fans for her role as the sassy and lovely Princess Jianning in "The Deer and the Cauldron".

But what is less known is that when filming this work, Lin Qingxia, whose career was on the rise, was "jealous" because she performed too well on the set. She openly said to Wang Jing:

"I follow Shu-Chen Qiu around all day long, and I don't know what I'm doing!"

In the following year, "City Hunter" and "The Demon Cult Leader" and other works were released one after another. It can be said that Shu Qi's career was at its peak.

Also because of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", director Wang Jing was involved in a "street beating" incident.

This year, Michelle Reis, known as the "most beautiful Hong Kong sister", was vying for favor with the wives and girlfriends of wealthy businessman Liu Luanxiong. She even revealed her jealousy of Qiu Shuzhen when she called and scolded the man:

"Wong Jing is willing to do anything for Shu-Chen Yau!"

It can be seen that at that time, Shu-zhen Qiu was the "proud daughter of heaven" that everyone envied.

In the eyes of Hong Kong media, she will marry Wang Jing sooner or later.

But no one expected that in 1994, the man suddenly began to promote the newcomer Weng Hong, and the other party had a close friend, who was the "Miss Hong Kong" Huang Ying who reported him that year.

Faced with this, Shu-zhen Yau became directly angry.

It is said that she had made several big fuss and even asked Wang Jing to replace the second female role in "Devil's Female Concentration Camp" from Weng Hong to Yip Yuqing.

But after that, actresses like Shu Qi and Guan Xiumei appeared around Wang Jing...

In 1997, Qiu Shuzhen officially announced her breakup with the man, saying only: "He did something that hurt me."

After that, her acting career seemed to come to an end.

Although there are still works coming out, they are obviously not as lively and lively as before. The works he did not participate in, such as "The Good Doctor" and "The Happier the Better", also did not make a splash.

In 1999, Shu-ching Yau met Leslie Cheung because of their collaboration, and later got married to Stephen Chow, the founder of a fashion company IT company, through the latter's introduction.

The man came from an ordinary family and was originally a bank clerk, but he was smart.

He made his first fortune by selling parallel-imported goods in 1988, and later founded an IT clothing brand. His net worth exceeds HK$1 billion, making him a successful "first-generation entrepreneur."

After their flash marriage, Shu-zhen Qiu retired from the entertainment industry and gave birth to three daughters, Shen Yue, Shen Chen, and Shen Ri.

A long time later, Wang Jing talked about this matter, and there was reluctance in his words, but everything was over.

And Qiu Shuzhen's life as a "rich wife" is not as comfortable as imagined. Hong Kong media has repeatedly revealed:

In order to have a son, she was still working hard and trying all kinds of methods at the age of 42, but it ended in regret.

To this day, her eldest daughter, Shen Yue, is already 23 years old and is still known as the "most beautiful second-generation star" by the outside world because of her good looks.

Yau Shu-zhen also intended to send her into the entertainment industry. It is reported that she made her debut in South Korea two years ago, but no works have been produced yet.

Until now, when Shu-zhen Yau was mentioned by Wong Jing again, she has not responded at all.

Although the story happened a long time ago, the man once admitted in person during the recording of "Kangxi Comes Here" that he once loved her the most.

But so what?

The "sexy little wild cat" who was envied by Michelle Reis and Brigitte Lin was ultimately just a fleeting glimpse on the screen.
