"Wong Liushuang, dear Yu, you know that Huang Liushuang, this China doll, is already in her thirties.
If you want, your date should at least be a first-line actress in Hollywood.
Since your two documentaries were released, there have been countless beauties The girl asked me for your contact information.
Do you want me to give it to you or not?"
"" I have never heard Albert speak in such a humorous way in my life.
It is probably the first profit of the Herring Chinese Restaurant in the past two days.
The amount is larger than that of this old man.
This old man is so happy that he can't find where to start. .
But it's a joke.
After joking with Yu Sheng, Albert happily agreed: "Dear Yu, I will help you make an appointment with the two of them.
Just give me one day."
The name Anna May Wong is already very unfamiliar to later generations of Chinese people.
But this person is the first actress to become famous in Hollywood in the history of Chinese films.
No matter who writes the history of film, this person is indispensable.
After Anna Wong gradually retired, the Chinese actress was no longer seen in Hollywood for decades.
It was not until the 21st century that things gradually improved.
Like Huang Zongzhan, Huang Liushuang was also born in the civilian class of Chinese Americans.
His father opened a small laundry shop in Chinatown to make a living.
Laundry shop is a business that cannot be idle, in order to save labor.
Often the whole family, young and old, joins the battle.
Wash your clothes.
The money earned was not much, just the cost of manual labor.
Because her family background was modest and Wong had eight brothers and sisters, she had very little pocket money.
When she was young, it was an era when the art of film was flourishing in the United States.
The young girl fell into the dream of this image and could not extricate herself at the first sight.
Therefore, skipping class and going to the cinema was the most true choice for Anna Wong.
And with very little pocket money, she can save food money.
So much so that he skipped several meals and eventually fell ill.
But no regrets.
By 1919, when Anna May Wong was fourteen, a film crew was filming a scene outside Chinatown and needed an Oriental face as a supporting cast.
Huang Liushuang recommended herself.
Several years of avid movie watching have given her a deep understanding of movies.
Therefore, even as a supporting role, he is extremely brilliant.
Since then, Anna May Wong has set foot in Hollywood.
There is a saying that things are rare but valuable.
In this era, this is the only Chinese woman who has the opportunity to set foot in Hollywood.
Therefore, whenever a movie needs an Eastern face or a Chinese person to act, Hollywood casting directors will first think of Anna Wong.
With little competition, Anna Wong took on one movie after another.
When she became famous, it was the most glorious and beautiful age for a woman, and her generation of grace gradually became famous in Europe and America.
Because of the particularity of its identity, it is often reported not only in newspapers and periodicals in North America, Europe, Australia, and South America, but also in Southeast Asia, China, and Japan.
In 1928, Anna May Wong traveled across Europe, and all European countries, including Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, etc., were shocked.
By 1930, when Anna May Wong returned to the United States, she was already a world-class star.
Film appointments came like snowflakes, and Wong struck while the iron was hot and performed 167 performances on Broadway, pushing her acting career to its peak.
However, the image of Chinese people shown in the movies starring Anna May Wong is only the image of Chinese people in the minds of Americans in this era.
In this era, Americans' racial prejudice was extremely strong, and because the former Qing Dynasty tolerated all the unreasonable treaties they signed with the Qing Dynasty, in the eyes of Americans, the Chinese were really weak, backward and ignorant.

Therefore, in the Hollywood movies of that era that can be seen in later generations, all the images of Chinese people are barbaric, unreasonable, cunning and cruel, committing murder and arson.
Americans do not have much respect for Chinese women.
In their eyes, It seems that traditional Chinese women's obedience to morality is a kind of submissive submission to fate and men.
They completely ignore the different beliefs that exist due to the different cultural systems of China and theirs.
Therefore, in this era, the image of Chinese women in Hollywood movies has never been able to escape the image of prostitutes and servants.
Even the world-class movie star Anna May Wong cannot escape such a role.
They can only succumb to the character image created by discrimination, which is beautiful, unclean, and weak.
In almost every movie, her character ends up dying at the end of the story Naturally, she will not be favored by the Chinese people for playing such a role.
In 1936, Huang Liushuang returned to China and her first stop was Shanghai.
Gu Weijun, Lin Yutang and everyone in the Shanghai film industry welcomed him.
Mei Lanfang and Hu Die keep company.
However, other walks of life in Shanghai do not have good intentions towards Huang Liushuang returning to China to find her roots.
The movie she starred in was banned in China, and the Chinese media even ridiculed that her epitaph should read "This is her death a thousand times".
One reporter even asked directly: "Why do you have to play so many humiliating oriental women?"
Wong Liu Shuang could only reply: "That is not my choice.
Even if I don't act, there will be other actors who will act.
And I will lose the only opportunity for Chinese people to play Chinese people."
Huang Liushuang told the truth.
In the United States of this era, many Americans have not had any contact with China, so most of their impressions are based on hearsay.
Including Hollywood directors, there are many times when there are Chinese people in the story, but there are no Chinese actors at their disposal.
They will not give the Chinese an extra chance to recruit a few Chinese actors.
And let the blond actor under his command make do with it and play the role of a Chinese Although Anna May Wong got some opportunities to play Chinese people, most of the time, the Chinese people were played by white-skinned Europeans and Americans.
Anna Wong is able to play a Chinese person as a Chinese person.
Even though the role is blunt and fictional, she still retains a realistic image of the Chinese person.
However, Hollywood directors obviously didn't like what Wong said.
Subsequently, The Great Land, written by Nobel Prize-winning Pearl S.
Buck and describing the life of Chinese people in this era, was adapted into a movie.
The two Chinese female characters in the play are both played by Caucasian actors.
Anna Wong didn't get a single role.
For Huang Liushuang, this was a fatal blow In 1937, Rina, who played the heroine of Earth, won an Oscar for this film.
In later generations, this film was also circulated.
No matter which era, for Chinese people, this film is unwatchable:
