After the filming of "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" was completed in 1993, why did Gong Li never see Stephen Chow again?

Gong Li and Stephen Chow made the movie "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" together. The film grossed 40.17 million at the box office, ranking first in the year. After so many years, the movie's rating is still as high as 8.6, which proves what it means to be a "classic that never goes out of style."

Originally Qiuxiang’s first choice was Wang Zuxian, but she couldn’t be scheduled. Later, the crew extended an olive branch to Gong Li. Back then, Gong Li won the Venice Golden Lion Award for "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit". She was naturally proud to be a movie queen.

She was a little hesitant after receiving the role of "Tang Bohu Spots Qiuxiang". She came from an academic background and could not immediately accept such a comedy movie that made no sense and alluded to reality. Moreover, she was also worried that it would have a bad impact on herself. .

Although Gong Li finally accepted the film, she became the most out of place in "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" because everyone else was doing all kinds of weirdness, comedy, and acting ugly, but she was the only one who remained I am beautiful, I am beautiful, my most beautiful image. The most exaggerated action Gong Li performed in the film was "Qiuxiang's surprise", but even if she was surprised, she was still beautiful and her appearance did not deteriorate.

Stephen Chow hopes that Gong Li can act ugly, but Gong Li is very conflicted. She has always wanted to find a balance between art and comedy, for fear that if she goes too far, she will be disliked by the audience. But obviously, Gong Li was not found at the beginning. Even when everyone else was a mess, her hair style was still beautiful. When everyone was beaten into "pig heads", Gong Li hired a substitute to perform this scene.

Because Gong Li couldn't accept being ugly, the burden of being funny was assigned to other actors. Originally, Mrs. Hua played by Zheng Peipei did not need to be funny. Stephen Chow originally asked her to come over and "beat" her. However, Zheng Peipei had to bear the responsibility of laughing. Not only did she have to fight, but she also had to be funny.

Fortunately, Zheng Peipei has no airs, is dedicated to her acting, and is also relaxed enough. Not only did she not complain because her character was changed, she actually had more fun than anyone else in the end.

Not being ugly and not integrating into the crew was Gong Li’s biggest regret when filming "Tang Bo Hu Spots Autumn Fragrance". She bluntly said that she was too young and didn’t understand at that time, and she didn’t realize it until the filming was almost over.

Gong Li also said that when "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" was finished, Stephen Chow once joked, "I will continue to look for you in the next film." Gong Li happily agreed, and then nothing happened. After "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", Gong Li never even saw Stephen Chow again.

Although Gong Li has always regretted not pretending to be ugly, the audience did not think so, and unanimously felt that Gong Li's inability to let go was the highlight of the movie.
