Joan Chen is famous both in China, where he grew up, and in the United States, where she now lives. How did Joan become a famous actress in both countries?

It’s an interesting story. She was born in Shanghai in 1961. When she was 14, some people from the studio came to her school and choose her to study at the studio. She was happy about this chance, but mainly she liked the idea of getting out of school. Soon, however, she discovered that she really liked acting. At the age of 18, she won the Golden Rooster, China’s top film award.

In the late 1970s, Joan’s parents, who were doctors, moved to the United States. Joan joined them when she was 20 and went to college there. Her parents hope she would study medicine. Instead she majored in films and later she looked for work as an actress.

19. When Joan Chen was fourteen, some people from the hospital came to her school. ________________
