In fact, there are many child stars in the entertainment industry today, such as Wu Lei, Song Zuer, Yang Mi and so on. Under normal circumstances, as long as you acted in a play when you were young, you have basically entered the entertainment circle after you grow up. If you look a little longer, your popularity will not be bad. However, today, the editor I want to introduce to you, although he is also a child star, his situation is completely different from other actors. He is the child star Yan Zhengguo.
may be familiar to everyone when it comes to this name! Yan Zhengguo, who was born in 1974, started filming in the entertainment industry at an early age. At the age of 10, Yan Zhengguo began to learn Kung Fu, and at the age of 11 he quickly became popular because of his participation in the movie "The Good Boy". Since then, he has participated in a number of film and television works, such as "It's She who is You", "Little Bi's Story", "Dongdong's Holiday" and so on. Because the years are relatively old, no one has seen these movies now.
Back then, everyone called Yan Zhengguo a genius child star and felt that his future would be boundless. However, the good times did not last long. In 1989, when the film "The Good Boy" fell behind, Yan Zhengguo also became decadent. He started to take drugs and even steal as an underage. At the age of 17, he was sentenced to 5 years in prison for theft. At the age of 22, he was sentenced to 15 years in prison for kidnapping and extortion. The genius child star went astray and ruined his life.
Many years of prison life has made Yan Zhengguo fully realize and change his past. In the prison, his talent for acting was not buried. He began to perform for inmates in the prison. He also participated in the Spring Festival gala held by the prison, and took the stage to play big swords and dance hip-hop for everyone. Not only did he not give up acting, he also began to practice calligraphy, and his brush writing was quite good.
In 2012, Yan Zhengguo, who was released on parole, devoted himself to the film career and became a director. In 2018, the movie "Corner 2: The King's Rising" directed by him won unanimous praise from the audience. Many scenes in the movie were once portrayals of his real life. Today, he has not only become a director, actor, and calligrapher, but he has also begun to work for public welfare. He responded to the sentence: The prodigal son will not change his money! In the future, I hope he gets better and better!
