On the afternoon of July 5, 2010, someone suddenly committed suicide by jumping off the building in Anyuan Beili Community, Chaoyang District, Beijing.
Police cars and ambulances arrived one after another. Surprisingly, the deceased turned out to be the 43-year-old famous actor Jia Hongsheng.
The news soon broke out, and the public was shocked and deeply felt sorry for Jia Hongsheng.
As a popular actor, when his career was at its peak, why did Jia Hongsheng suddenly commit suicide by jumping off a building?
01
In 1972, in a small town in Siping City, Jilin Province, a little boy named Jia Hongsheng was born.
Since his parents were both drama actors, the young Jia Hongsheng was deeply interested in the profession of actor.
From elementary school to middle school, Jia Hongsheng showed his unique literary and artistic talent . Whenever the school organizes theatrical performances, he is always the most active one.
I remember one time when the school was rehearsing the drama "Thunderstorm" and Jia Hongsheng was selected to play Zhou Ping.
He came to school early every day, rehearsed over and over again, and practiced his lines again and again when he got home.
His seriousness and persistence impressed both his teachers and classmates.
After unremitting efforts, this program finally won the second prize in the school-level competition.
In 1990, 18-year-old Jia Hongsheng was admitted to the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama and became a classmate of Gong Li, Wu Yujuan, Chen Wei and others.
In the eyes of his classmates, Jia Hongsheng is handsome, calm and restrained, with the temperament of a literary young man.
With his unique charm, he is not only known as the star of the Chinese drama school, but also the Prince Charming in the eyes of many girls. When
was in his junior year, the famous director Li Shaohong was attracted by his unique temperament and invited him to star in the movie suspense drama "Silver Snake Murder".
With his outstanding performance, Jia Hongsheng successfully completed the filming of the film and has become famous since then.
After graduating in 1989, Jia Hongsheng joined the Central Experimental Theater and became a representative figure of the idol group and the powerful group with three films including "Morning, Beijing", "Birth and Death" and "Emergency Chase".
Not only that, he also appeared on the cover of the July 1990 issue of "Popular Film" magazine, a household name at the time.
At this time, Jia Hongsheng, who was only 23 years old, had already emerged and became a hot star.
While his career was booming, Jia Hongsheng also came together with his classmate Wu Yujuan .

When she was young, Wu Yujuan was tall and well-proportioned, and her movements revealed an elegant and generous temperament.
, together with Gong Li, Shi Ke, Jin Lili, and Chen Wei, is known as one of the five golden flowers.
Although she was 2 years older than Jia Hongsheng, they were a perfect match because of their talents and looks, and they soon fell in love.
During the days they were together, they supported and encouraged each other, becoming each other's most solid backing. At the same time, they also became a couple that everyone envied in their circle of friends.
However, the good times did not last long. An accident completely changed the relationship between the two people.
Once, Wu Yujuan ran into Jia Hongsheng taking drugs in , which shocked her extremely.
It turns out that when Jia Hongsheng was filming "Kiss of the Spider Woman", he wanted to enter the character's drug-taking state, and also to get rid of the baggage of being an idol and move towards becoming a capable actor.
He touched something he shouldn't have touched, and he couldn't extricate himself from it.
After understanding the situation, Wu Yujuan did not give up on her boyfriend. Regardless of her flourishing career, she resolutely stayed with Jia Hongsheng all day long to accompany him in his drug rehabilitation.
It’s just that she underestimated the power of drugs. Jia Hongsheng felt tortured when he was addicted to drugs, and could only rely on relapse to relieve the pain.
Once, when Wu Yujuan saw that Jia Hongsheng was addicted to drugs and was about to take drugs again, she knelt down and begged him to quit drugs.
Jia Hongsheng, who was suffering from drug addiction, had lost his mind and even accidentally beat Wu Yujuan. By the time he woke up, it was too late to regret it.
It turns out that Jia Hongsheng's behavior of detoxifying and relapsing again and again has broken Wu Yujuan's heart.
Nowadays, Jia Hongsheng not only takes drugs, but also beats others. She is already disheartened and no longer has any expectations for her boyfriend.
In 1998, the two ended their six-year relationship.
The torture of drug addiction, coupled with the pain of broken love, made the gentle and elegant Jia Hongsheng impatient, impulsive, withdrawn and indifferent.
When the parents saw this scene, their hearts were broken.
They were unwilling to let their son sink like this, so they sent Jia Hongsheng to a mental hospital. While treating mental problems such as visual and auditory hallucinations, they also underwent compulsory drug detoxification.
After three years of treatment, Jia Hongsheng finally lived up to his parents' expectations and successfully gave up his drug addiction.

After coming out of the mental hospital, through his mother's hard work and dealings, Jia Hongsheng successfully took over the filming of another movie "Suzhou River" .
It was in this drama that he met Zhou Xun, who was not yet very popular.
In the daily scenes, Zhou Xun was attracted by Jia Hongsheng's professionalism and surrounded Jia Hongsheng like a little fan girl all day long.
At the same time, her straightforward character and big, clear eyes also deeply attracted Jia Hongsheng's attention.
Once, Jia Hongsheng mustered up the courage to confess his love to Zhou Xun and asked Zhou Xun if he would be his girlfriend.
Zhou Xun naturally wanted to express his love for his idol, and the two fell in love from then on.
At this time, Zhou Xun was still an unknown little actor. As her boyfriend, Jia Hongsheng tried his best to introduce resources to her.
In 1999, the audition for "Ci of the Ming Dynasty" was going on, and Jia Hongsheng took Zhou Xun with him to audition.
This time, Jia Hongsheng did not find a role that suited him, so he encouraged Zhou Xun to try the role of a palace maid.
At that time, Zhou Xun was young in acting and had a slight stutter, so he was not confident in himself.
With Jia Hongsheng's repeated encouragement, she plucked up the courage to participate in the audition.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xun in front of the camera was stunning, and his agility successfully conquered director Li Shaohong.
In the end, Li Shaohong not only gave Zhou Xun the role of the young Princess Taiping, but also took her under his wing.
"Da Ming Gong Ci" became an instant hit as soon as it was aired, and Zhou Xun became famous as a result.
Since then, the two people can often be seen on the set.
Jia Hongsheng loved Zhou Xun deeply and gave her a valuable necklace. However, after a year of intense love, cracks began to appear in their relationship.
There are rumors that the necklace Pu Shu wore around his neck at a certain awards ceremony was the one that Jia Hongsheng gave to Zhou Xun.
Jia Hongsheng was already troubled by the failure of his career. This news was like a bolt from the blue, making him extremely depressed.
Soon, the two broke up quietly. Soon after, Zhou Xun and Pu Shu came together.
Many years later, Jia Hongsheng died after jumping off a building due to depression. After learning the bad news, Zhou Xun cried bitterly for several days without eating anything.
Although the two have been separated for many years, they once deeply loved each other.
What's more, Jia Hongsheng had the kindness to support and cultivate Zhou Xun. This feeling of being both a teacher and a friend was enough to make Zhou Xun cherish him for the rest of his life.

In order to better interpret the role and show the artistic charm of the work, Jia Hongsheng did not hesitate to test drugs and violate the law.
In the end, not only did he ruin his career, but he also ruined his young life, which made people sigh with regret.
His experience also sounded the alarm for everyone.
No excuse is a reason for indulgence. You must have principles when you are born. There are some behavioral standards that must not be touched.
Whether you are an ordinary person or a celebrity, you must take responsibility for your own physical and mental health and life safety.
Take care of yourself and stay away from drugs.
remember!
