Revealing Sun Honglei’s Secret Love History and Not Simple Acting Career

Zuo Xiaoqing: The Secret of Love Caused by Drama

Zuo Xiaoqing and Sun Honglei gradually developed feelings in the cooperation. Although this relationship was not publicly acknowledged, it still became the focus of hot discussion in the media at that time, and finally faded with the filming.

Chen Xiaoyi and Li Xinyu: the truth behind the scandal.

During the filming of the TV series "Half-way Couple", Sun Honglei and Chen Xiaoyi had an affair. Although both of them were married, their intimate interaction caused a lot of speculation. Li Xinyu was also rumored for her cooperation with Sun Honglei, but these failed to develop into a real relationship.

After many twists and turns, Sun Honglei found his home in life-Wang Jundi. This girl, who is 15 years younger than Sun Honglei, is not only outstanding in appearance, but also gives strong support to Sun Honglei’s career. The two entered the marriage hall in 2017 and had a daughter after marriage, forming a happy family. In front of the public, Sun Honglei often shows his love for his wife, which has become a much-told story in the entertainment circle.

Causes and Social Motives of Gossip

Why is Sun Honglei’s emotional life so compelling? This is not only related to his acting achievements, but also directly related to the media’s extreme attention to the private lives of celebrities. In this era of information explosion, the life and feelings of stars often become the focus of public discussion. Especially for male stars like Sun Honglei, the scandal behind it has attracted countless eyes.

In this process, the media’s rendering and the public’s expectation will exaggerate the details of the star’s life, making him a figure at the forefront of public opinion. This phenomenon not only affects the personal life of stars, but also reflects the social consideration of love, marriage and personal values to some extent.

Summary and reflection

Sun Honglei’s acting career and love story show the struggle and persistence of an ordinary person in the entertainment circle. Despite several twists and turns and challenges, he still maintained his passion and pursuit of performing arts. Especially after many relationships, he finally found his own happiness, which not only affirmed his personal choice, but also provided many people with a reflective perspective.

In today’s society, while paying attention to the lives of celebrities, we should also respect their privacy and pay attention to their achievements through their own efforts. Keeping rational, less unnecessary guesses and gossip that wastes time, may make us have a deeper understanding of life.

Just like the bumpy road experienced by Sun Honglei, everyone needs to keep working hard in the pursuit of ideals and happiness. With the help of modern technology, AI tools can help us to be more efficient in our life and work. Just like the diversified tools provided by simple AI, we can generate creative beautiful pictures, excellent articles and other functions with one click to help everyone who is pursuing.

Qiushi. com commentator: relying on labor creation to solidly promote Chinese modernization

  On the occasion of the May 1st International Labor Day, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader extended festive congratulations and sincere condolences to the broad masses of working people throughout the country, encouraging them to vigorously carry forward the spirit of model workers, labor spirit and craftsman spirit, work honestly and diligently, be determined to innovate, dare to be the first, rely on labor creation to solidly promote Chinese modernization, and give full play to the role of the main force in the new journey of building a strong country and national rejuvenation.

  Labor is the essential activity of human beings and the fundamental force to promote the progress of human society. Marx pointed out: "any nation will perish if it stops working, not to mention a year, even a few weeks." Glorious labor and great creation are the basic viewpoints of Marxist labor view, an important interpretation of the law of human civilization and progress, and a spiritual gene deeply rooted in the blood of the Chinese nation. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly emphasized the importance of labor, profoundly pointing out that "labor is the source of all happiness", "labor is the only way for all success" and "the quality of workers is crucial to the development of a country and a nation".

  Labor creates happiness, and hard work makes great achievements. From standing up, becoming rich to becoming strong, every step of the Chinese nation is saturated with the hard work and silent dedication of hundreds of millions of working people. From Zhao Zhankui, a "flag-bearer of border workers" and Zhen Rongdian, a "flag-bearer of new labor movement" during the new democratic revolution, to Wang Jinxi, an "iron man" and Shi Chuanxiang, who "would rather be dirty than clean" during the socialist revolution and construction, to Kong Xiangrui, a "blue-collar expert" and Deng Jianjun & Hellep, a "knowledge worker" in the new era of reform, opening up and socialist modernization; … It is precisely because of the hard work and selfless dedication of workers that the magnificent building of socialism is built brick by brick. In the new era, a large number of advanced model figures, such as Zhu Shijie, Gao Fenglin, a gold welder, and Huang Dafa, a contemporary foolish man, have made contributions to the motherland and kept pace with the new era, inspiring the broad masses of people to strive to be the strugglers of the new era and writing a new chapter of "Chinese Dream, Labor Beauty". It can be said that all the development achievements made in contemporary China and the happy life enjoyed by the people of China today are made by the working people with their sleeves rolled up.

  This year is the first year to fully implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and it is a crucial year to carry out the 14th Five-Year Plan. To do a good job in all aspects of economic and social development and make a good start in building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, we must rely on the people and always serve the people, pay more attention to the role of the broad masses of working people as the main force, and rely on unity and struggle to cope with the situation and start a new one. It is necessary to vigorously carry forward the spirit of model workers, labor spirit and craftsman spirit in the whole society, implement the major principles of respecting labor, knowledge, talents and creativity, and establish the concepts of hard work, honest work and creative work, so that the glory of labor and the greatness of creation will become a sonorous voice of the times. Party committees and governments at all levels should fully stimulate the labor enthusiasm and creativity of the broad masses of working people, effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of the broad masses of working people, help the broad masses of working people solve problems with heart, and promote the whole society to further form a good atmosphere of advocating labor and respecting workers.

  The grand blueprint for comprehensively promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization has everyone’s share of the achievements and responsibilities. Relying on labor creation to solidly promote Chinese modernization requires the broad masses of working people in China to unswervingly listen to the Party’s words, unswervingly follow the Party, take the goals set by the Party and the state as their own life goals, and consciously integrate life ideals and life struggles into the historical great cause of building a strong country and national rejuvenation. We should work honestly based on our posts, do what we do, love what we do, drill what we do, develop the habit of being good at learning and thinking, enhance the sense of innovation and cultivate innovative thinking, adapt to the needs of the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, study hard and study deeply, constantly improve the level of technical skills, and make extraordinary achievements in ordinary posts.

  "Socialism is done, and the new era is fought." In the face of such an era in which Qian Fan is competing for development, contending for streams, having the opportunity to do business and being able to succeed, as long as the broad masses of working people thoroughly implement the spirit of the 20th Party Congress, unite more closely around the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, be diligent in creation and be brave in struggle, they will certainly be able to create a new era glory and cast a new historical great cause.

Putin and Biden shook hands, and Ukraine was greatly wronged …

  Text | Li Linyi Investigator of Asia-Europe Issues, International Department of Xinhua News Agency

  The first meeting between Russian and American leaders after Biden took office was held in Geneva on the 16th. In view of the situation in Ukraine, which is highly concerned by all parties, both Putin and Biden expressed their support for resolving the Donbass conflict on the basis of the Minsk Agreement. However, Biden did not make a clear statement on the issues that the Ukrainian government is most concerned about, such as joining NATO.

  On June 16th, US President Joe Biden (right) and Russian President Vladimir Putin shook hands in Geneva, Switzerland. Xinhua News Agency/AFP

  Analysts believe that the Ukrainian issue does not involve the core interests of the United States, and the United States only uses Ukraine to launch a geopolitical game with Russia. In the future, the fate of Ukraine as a geopolitical "pawn" will not change, and it is difficult for Ukraine to obtain substantial help from the West on key issues involving its own interests.

  "NATO Dream" is broken

  Since the beginning of this year, Ukraine has been actively seeking to join NATO, and this demand has become particularly strong on the eve of Biden’s visit to Europe. Worried that the meeting between Putin and Biden might reach some unfavorable consensus, Uzbek President Zelensky tried his best to facilitate his meeting with Biden before the "general meeting", but ultimately failed. To appease Ukraine, Biden telephoned Zelensky on the 7th and invited him to visit the United States in July.

  However, Zelensky not only failed to get the guarantee of "entering the contract" during the call, but also made an "Oolong Incident". The Ukrainian President’s Office issued a statement on the same day, saying that Biden stressed the importance of providing Ukraine with the "NATO Member States Action Plan" during the call. The White House National Security Council immediately "rumored" that Biden had not made similar remarks. Uzbekistan then had to make corrections, saying that this remark came from Zelensky himself.

  The NATO summit held on the 14th also failed to provide Ukraine with a clear "accession" plan. Although the joint communique issued after the summit expressed support for Ukraine to become a member of NATO, it did not mention the specific timetable for Ukraine’s "entry into the treaty." Zelensky condemned this.

  Biden said after the NATO summit that Ukraine’s "accession to the treaty" depends on whether Ukraine meets a series of NATO standards. At present, Ukraine still needs to solve problems such as domestic corruption. He stressed that Ukraine’s "entry into the treaty" is not something that the United States can decide, and Ukraine should also convince other NATO members.

  This is the scene of the NATO summit filmed at the NATO headquarters in Brussels, Belgium on June 14th. Xinhua News Agency (Photo courtesy of NATO)

  Experts believe that Russia has repeatedly warned the West not to cross the "red line" on the issue of Ukraine’s "accession to the treaty", and the West is unwilling and afraid to provoke Russia. In addition, Ukraine, with its weak economy and unresolved territorial disputes, is a heavy burden for NATO.

  Ukraine’s "accession" efforts have been going on for many years. In 2014, the Verkhovna Rada (Parliament) amended two laws and gave up the country’s non-aligned status. In 2019, the Ukrainian parliament passed a constitutional amendment to determine the basic route for Uzbekistan to join the EU and NATO. In June 2020, Ukraine became the sixth country to obtain the status of NATO’s "capacity enhancement partner". However, the west has always been ambiguous on the issue of Ukraine’s "accession to the treaty."

  The "money bag" is flat

  Another major grievance suffered by Ukraine in the near future is that the United States has announced that it will partially abandon the sanctions on the "Beixi -2" natural gas pipeline. This move may replace the traditional natural gas pipeline that transits Ukraine, and Ukraine may not be able to continue to charge high natural gas transit fees or import natural gas from Russia at preferential prices.

  On May 19th, US Secretary of State Blinken suddenly announced that the US decided to lift the sanctions against the "Beixi -2" joint-stock company and its responsible person who participated in the construction of the "Beixi -2" natural gas pipeline. The White House said that the construction of the pipeline was "unstoppable" because it was actually nearing completion. This sharp turn of attitude of the US is considered to ease the tension between the United States and its allies, especially the relationship between the United States and Germany, caused by Trump’s administration.

  On the 2nd of this month, Zelensky said that the completion of "Beixi -2" may result in a loss of US$ 3 billion a year, which will make Ukraine unable to bear its own military expenditure. He said that no matter from the economic or security point of view, "Beixi -2" refers to the "heart" of Ukraine, and only the United States can stop its completion.

  Blinken put forward several so-called solutions to Ukraine. One is to seek to extend the existing Russian-Ukrainian gas transit agreement; the other is to compensate Ukraine for the economic losses caused by Russian gas bypassing Ukraine; and the third is to fully tap its own energy potential and reduce its dependence on Russia.

  On May 6th, Ukrainian President Zelensky (left) bumped his elbow when meeting with US Secretary of State Blinken in Kiev. Xinhua News Agency (Photo courtesy of the Office of the President of Ukraine)

  Experts believe that Blinken’s suggestions are empty talk. Whether the Russian-Ukrainian natural gas transit agreement can be postponed depends on Russia’s wishes, and whether Europe will compensate Ukraine’s economic losses is not up to the United States, and it is difficult for Ukraine to get out of the predicament of high energy dependence on imports in the short term.

  Putin said at the plenary session of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum on the 4th that after the expiration of the Russian-Ukrainian natural gas agreement, it is still possible for Russia to transport natural gas to Europe through Ukraine, but this requires Ukraine to release goodwill.

  It is difficult to "seek asylum"

  Biden said during and after the US-Russian leaders’ meeting that the United States supports Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and the settlement of the Donbass conflict on the basis of the Minsk Agreement. Compared with his predecessor, Biden’s statement was nothing new, which disappointed Uzbekistan.

  Experts believe that the main purpose of Biden’s trip to Europe is to repair allies and control Russia-US relations in a "stable and predictable" range, so the United States will not provoke Russia on the Ukrainian issue.

  After the outbreak of the Ukrainian crisis, Ukraine turned to the western camp in an all-round way and took joining NATO as the basic strategic direction of the country. In order to gain the recognition of western countries, Ukraine does not hesitate to confront Russia. However, the facts over the years have proved that the West has never really accepted Ukraine, which is only a "pawn" for the United States to contain Russia, and supporting its accession to NATO is only a "blank check" written by the United States.

  On June 16, US President Biden (left) and Russian President Vladimir Putin met in Geneva, Switzerland. Xinhua News Agency/AFP

  Ukraine’s position on the eve of the Russian-American meeting and its efforts to seek the support of western partners show that Ukraine seems to be more afraid of becoming a "abandoned child" than being a "chess piece". However, whether it is the question of natural gas pipeline or joining NATO, the west has failed to provide Ukraine with a satisfactory answer.

  Experts pointed out that the trend of US-Ukraine relations largely depends on the evolution of US-Russia relations. When the United States has political needs, it will provide some support to Ukraine, otherwise it will be left aside and treated coldly. For a long time to come, Ukraine will be unable to change its fate as a geopolitical "pawn".
