1/1 Jin Yong, who was in his early thirties, used to be infatuated with the big star Xia Meng, but unfortunately the woman has long been famous.
(Reported by Sing Tao Daily) Since ancient times, there have been many talented men and women. As a giant in the literary world, Jin Yong has experienced three marriages and one secret love in his life;There is also a secret love that only King Xiang can dream of.Although each relationship is not as soul-stirring and tear-making as the hero and heroine in my own writing, but each relationship is clearly love-hate and unforgettable.
Jin Yong's first wife was Du Yefen. At that time, Jin Yong was in charge of the editor-in-chief of the Hong Kong Ta Kung Pao. Du's younger brother was a loyal reader of the newspaper. He once wrote to the newspaper to express his opinions, so he met Jin Yong;As a guest, Jin Yong caught a glimpse of Du Yefen, who was only 17 years old at the time, and fell in love with her at first sight. The two fell in love immediately, and the wedding was held in Shanghai in 1948.
After the two got married, Du followed her husband to live in Hong Kong, but because she didn't know Cantonese, she couldn't adapt to life in Hong Kong for a long time. In addition, Jin Yong was busy with work and often neglected his wife.No children were born.
Jin Yong married Du Yefen. It was rumored that the woman had another new love. Jin Yong kept silent about this for many years until he was seventy-four years old. He said, "Now I am not afraid to say that the first wife betrayed (betrayed) me, when I got married for the first time, she loved me very much, and I loved her very much, but then I got divorced, if you ask me, I don’t regret it, and I say I don’t regret it.”
The first marriage failed, and Jin Yongcai was in his early thirties. In his prime, he was originally very infatuated with Xia Meng, the big star of the year.In order to get close to the beautiful woman, he went to Xia's film company to work as a screenwriter, but unfortunately the woman was famous, Jin Yong had to leave the job sadly, and completed the famous Condor Heroes with the pain of losing love.
After the divorce and "broken love", until 1956, Jin Yong married his second wife, Zhu Mei, who was only 21 years old at the time. After marriage, they had two sons and two daughters.
Zhu Mei is an intellectual career woman. She and Jin Yong founded Ming Pao in 1959. Jin Yong served as the editor-in-chief.In the 1970s, Jin Yong wrote fifteen short stories, which were very popular among the Chinese, and Ming Pao became a best-selling newspaper at this time.It's a pity that he and Zhu Neng shared adversity but failed to share wealth. Zhu Mei and Jin Yong are both strong characters, and their married life is not happy.
Jin Yong, who was 43 years old at the time, met Lin Leyi, a waitress who was 27 years younger than him, at a restaurant near the newspaper office. Apart from being attracted by her elegant appearance, it is said that Jin Yong rewarded Lin Leyi with a tip of ten yuan., but she rejected it on the grounds that "it is very hard for a literati to make money", which made Jin Yong look at her differently. The understanding Lin Leyi took Jin Yong captive, and her marriage with Zhu Mei also ended.
It was pointed out that Zhu Mei was willing to divorce when she put forward two major conditions. One was to pay Jin Yong a sum of money as compensation, and the other was that he could not have children with Lin, and Jin Yong agreed to both;Mei, I am not successful as a husband, and I feel sorry for her."
In middle age, Jin Yong overcomes all difficulties to start a year-end relationship. He especially cherishes getting along with Lin Leyi. After the two got married, Jin Yong sent her to study in Australia.Cooking and doing housework together in free time, although the days are plain, but the love of holding hands and growing old together is not spoken.
