Zhou Jie, born in 1970 in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, Zhou Jie grew up in Xi'an, then enrolled in the acting department of the Shanghai Theatre Academy, and after graduation, he was assigned to the National Theatre with honors, and officially began his acting career.
Though he worked with Maggie Cheung, Chin Han and Alan Leong in "Ruan Lingyu" and also took part in theater performances. But the role that Zhou Jie is really known for is the "Er Kang" in "Pearl Palace".
I remember when I was a kid, this drama is a universal chase ah, regardless of men and women, young and old, sitting in front of the TV, ears ringing with the familiar melody and lyrics: let us be companions of the red dust, living in style, horseback riding, *** enjoy the prosperity of the world. You are the wind, I am the sand, entangled, to the end of the world.
The drama hit a 47% rating at the time, and after more than a dozen reruns, it has become a generation's memory. In addition to "Returning Pearl", another masterpiece of Zhou Jie is undoubtedly "Junior Bao Qingtian", and Zhou Jie's Bao Qingtian can be said to be the most classic image of Bao Qingtian in history.
The drama "Junior Bao Qing Tian" won the "national TV drama ratings champion" in that year. Zhou Jie also became a domestic first-line powerhouse actor. However, just when Zhou Jie's career was in full swing, he was exposed to a series of negative news, such as "strong kiss door" and "fight door", which made Zhou Jie's image fall into the valley. The company's image has hit rock bottom, and his career is in tatters.
In a certain program, Lin Xinru was recalling the time of filming, she said that at that time and Zhou Jie co-starred in the kissing scene, it was particularly disgusting, and I do not know whether this statement is sincere or unintentional.
Since then, Zhou Jie has been criticized by netizens for this, and his career began to fall apart.
However, even with all the negativity, Jay didn't defend himself, didn't speak out, didn't do PR, and didn't refute. This led to everyone assuming that he had acquiesced and his character was questioned. Later gradually faded out of the entertainment industry.
For this matter, Su Youpeng also stood on Zhou Jie's side in an interview, saying that Zhou Jie's acting skills are very good, and he still appreciates him. Wang Yan, who once played the role of Qinggege in "Returning Pearl", has also said that Zhou Jie is a very good actor, his line work is very professional, and if it wasn't for Lin Xinru's words that made people biased against him, he would have had a better development.
When the original cast was disbanded for the third installment of "Returning the Pearl," Zhou Jie still returned to the role of Erkang. At that time, the role of Ziwei was played by Ma Yili, and after they worked together, she didn't say half a bad word about Zhou Jie. Before working together, there were friends who warned her to beware of Zhou Jie, but after working together, she felt that Zhou Jie was very good and a very dedicated actor.
Perhaps realizing that she said the wrong thing, Lin Xinru later also said in many interviews that if she had done something wrong in the past, she would like to apologize, but the mistake has been made in the past and can't be made up for, and she only hopes that both sides will have a good heart.
Today, Zhou Jie has faded out of the acting circle, he not only set up his own film and television company. Also and friends joint venture opened a lot of restaurants.
He also specially contracted thousands of acres of land in the Northeast and hired experts to cultivate high-quality rice, not only that, he also specially chartered a mountain to produce bottled spring water.
Zhou Jie is usually very low-profile, after quitting the entertainment industry at ease after the development of their own careers, the value of the body has long been hundreds of millions of dollars. This time was photographed also did not respond, I hope he will be able to live better in the future.
