I originally thought that Zhou Runfa was the "ceiling of the big brother realm", but I didn't expect wan Ziliang to be the king of kings.
When Zhou Runfa became famous with "Shanghai Beach", Wan Ziliang was still carrying sandbags on the dock.
But God quietly opened the back door for Wan Ziliang.
In 1976, 19-year-old Wan Ziliang saw a notice.
It reads: Hong Kong TVB, Artist Training Class Enrollment.
This soaring opportunity, Wan Ziliang is not willing to let go.
Even if there is no experience and education, relying on the handsome image of Gundam, Wan Ziliang was selected.
In 1997, he got his first work, "The Sword of the Third Young Master".
Although he did not make him famous, he was paid much more than odd jobs.
At that time, Wan Ziliang only wanted to make money to support his family.
I never thought that I would one day become the "big brother" of Hong Kong people.
In 1985, Wan Ziliang starred in the famous work "Xue Rengui Zhengdong".
In the same year, another "Rogue Tycoon" made him win the ratings championship.
After becoming famous, he also had a love affair with Deng Cuiwen.
Wan Ziliang is very serious about his feelings and is bent on getting married.
There was even a message that, in order to save his feelings, he knelt down to Deng Cuiwen on the street.
Unfortunately, Deng Cuiwen's feelings for him were not so pure.
She once said in an interview: Wan Ziliang is also a teacher and friend to me, and can teach me to act.
Unequal love is destined to be a mistake.
After only a year and a half, the two parted ways.
Frustrated in the love field, proud of the cause.
In 1988, he ushered in his pinnacle of his work" Big Head Boy.
In the play, he combed his back for the first time and wore a suit and leather shoes.
The "big guy" who is also good and evil is played by him to be divine, as if this is the case in his bones.
At that time, the polished big back was still the exclusive of Zhou Runfa.
He acted in many dramas such as "The True Colors of Heroes", which established his status as a big brother in the hearts of movie fans.
But Wan Ziliang, who suddenly appeared, sat on an equal footing with him.
The drama performed by the two in the same frame was rated as "dragon fighting tiger fight" by the audience.
Regarded as a benefactor by Zhou Xingchi, his popularity overwhelmed the crowd, how beautiful was Wan Ziliang's heyday?
There have been photos taken by the media that Wan Ziliang was surrounded by fans.
The rough estimate of the picture is that thousands of people appear on camera, and this is only the tip of the iceberg.
Every time he goes out, Wan Zi liang is equipped with at least 20 security guards.
These fans will go crazy, the water around the road will not be drained, and the entire traffic will be paralyzed.
His photo posters sold to the top.
At the same time, Dillon Lu Weiliang and others were inferior.
In 1988, Wan Ziliang took over a film called "The Wind Catcher".
Zhou Xingchi, who participated in this drama together, shouted as soon as they met:
"Big brother, we finally have a chance to work together."
Goodbye benefactor, Zhou Xingchi looked very excited.
In the years when Wan Ziliang became popular, Zhou Xingchi was still only the most inconspicuous role of the wireless station.
The drama he plays is either a punch and is killed, or a child likes to watch.
Because of the problem of acting style, Zhou Xingchi was scolded by the director.
Even he himself wondered if I was suitable for this line of work.
Until a chance, Wan Ziliang praised him: Your play is very good.
At that time, Zhou Xingchi thought that the other party was coaxing him.
Unexpectedly, Wan Ziliang was actually willing to introduce the big director Li Xiuxian to him.
In this way, he got the script of "Thunderbolt Pioneer".
In the nearly 10 years since entering the industry, he won the Best Supporting Actor Award for the first time.
At the moment of receiving the award, he choked up and said, "I am very grateful to my eldest brother Wan Ziliang."
Wan Ziliang in the audience wore sunglasses and also showed a smile that was proud of him.
One of Wan Ziliang's moves has achieved Zhou Xingchi's star path.
The two called themselves Brother Liang and Brother Xing, and at one point they were so good that they had to wear a pair of pants.
In 1992, Wan Ziliang married TianNian, who had been in love for four years.
Zeng Zhiwei Ren Dahua, Zhang Weijian and others all came to the scene.
But the position of the groomsman, Wan Ziliang was only left to Zhou Xingchi.
The love between men is all in the unspoken.
On the day of the wedding, TVB also took the whole live broadcast, and Shaw personally officiated the marriage.
This grand wedding ended with the blessings and noise of the guests.
However, this marriage has also been laughed at by many people.
If nothing else, Tian Yu also has a baby in her second marriage, and Wan Ziliang is a bachelor and a golden man.
Xu was in order to support the scene for his wife Tiannian, he directly said:
"Sweet lady, looking down on her is having an opinion on me."
When a reporter with good deeds provoked him, Wan Ziliang also directly exploded his foul mouth and scolded him to the point of being dumb and speechless.
Since marriage, Wan Ziliang's works have begun to decrease.
In 1993, he starred in a New Year film "Brother Dragon And Brother Mouse".
He took the savings of many years and went to the sea to do business.
According to anecdotal reports, he has been in the clothing business in Guangzhou for several years.
But because of poor management, money has been lost.
Until 1997, a "Wan Zi Liang divorce" attracted the attention of the public.
Along with this, there was news of his illness.
Benefactor Wan Ziliang went bankrupt and fell, why did Zhou Xingchi remain indifferent?
In 2000, Wan Ziliang was photographed by the media.
Photos of bloated figures and poor facial appearance.
Compared with the big brother who was full of spirit in the past, today's Wan Ziliang makes people cry out and dare not recognize.
Many people speculate that he is suffering from some kind of disease.
In the first two years, he also insisted on acting in the movie "Ancient Puzzle Boy".
Some insiders said that Wan Ziliang was bankrupt and could only go out of the mountains to make money again.
This can't help but make people wonder, why didn't Zhou Xingchi, who he once carried, help?
You know, at the end of the 90s, Stephen Chow had already switched to comedy films early.
It has become a "star master" sought after by everyone, and any drama can earn hundreds of millions of dollars.
Later, there were rumors that the two were suspected of having a broken relationship.
In 1999, when Stephen Chow was preparing to shoot "The King of Comedy".
The role played by Wu Mengda in the play was originally left to Wan Ziliang by him.
But before filming, the crew suddenly changed sets.
And no one informed Wan Ziliang, who waited in the hotel all day.
Wan Ziliang felt teased and left angrily, and the matter was so closed.
Later, Zhou Xingchi gave this role to Wu Mengda.
However, when the movie ended, he still added Wan Ziliang's name.
Neither of them publicly explained the matter, so that the misunderstanding has accumulated over the years.
In 2002, Wan Ziliang suddenly announced his marriage, and he remarried with Guo Mingli, a 16-year-old flight attendant.
Many people lament that the charm of big brother is always there.
In order to support his family, Wan Ziliang actively made a comeback.
After the Hong Kong film did not fall, he did not have a terrible drama, and also learned the behavior of many artists to "eat the old book".
Dressed as a big brother, go everywhere to perform commercial performances.
Especially in recent years, some netizens have frequently photographed Wan Ziliang singing in a shopping mall.
Even once, he was so weak that he could not stand steadily, and he was helped to the stage.
In fact, Zhou Xingchi also looked back for Wan Ziliang, just in 2019.
When he directed "The King of Comedy" began filming again.
At first, he wanted to give him the role of "dreamy father" in the play.
But Wan Ziliang waved his hand and expressed his reluctance.
Then, in July 2020, he co-starred with Aaron Kwok in "Mai Lu Ren".
In the play, he has white hair. When performing a scene, the emotion fell directly to the ground.
Frightened Aaron Kwok, he was anxious to soothe him emotionally.
Now in his 60s, Wan Ziliang is still fighting so hard, and it turns out that it is not easy for stars to raise their families.
Although the hero is old, the wind and bone are still there.
The era of belonging to the big brother has long passed, but Wan Ziliang will not be forgotten.
