The acting skills are first-class, but the private life of Tu is particularly low-key. At first, many young people did not know him, but were very familiar with his image. Until his speech at the Golden Horse Awards Ceremony in 2018, the patriotic feelings in the words of the old artists greatly touched countless netizens. Tu Men said at the award ceremony at that time: "It is a special honor to come to Taiwan's Golden Horse again as an award guest, this time I have met many familiar faces, contacted many new faces, and met many new friends. At that time, Tu Men had white hair, but he was full of vitality, and he stood on the stage very gentlemanly in a suit, and said such a thing in a full spirit. After he finished speaking this, there was thunderous applause from the audience, and standing next to Tu's teacher at that time was the well-known actor Hui Yinghong.
Hearing the news of Tu's death, Hui Yinghong was also very sad, and she first posted that she couldn't believe it and was difficult to accept. After that, he sent a condolence: I would rather believe that the old beast was just asleep and walked all the way. The accompanying picture is the appearance of Tu Men riding a bicycle in "Old Beast". Liu Tao, an actor who worked with Tu three years ago, also posted a memorial: Three years ago, I didn't want to say goodbye forever. Can't believe it and it's hard to accept your departure, Tu teacher, you went all the way.
Huang Xiaoming also sent a condolence: I am very sad. We only shot "The Last Truth" together at the beginning of this year, and now that the movie is about to be released, it's really really hard to hear that.

The famous director Jia Zhangke also posted: This year's Pingyao Film Exhibition you are still good, too sudden. Huang Xuan was still promoting movies with Tu last month, and the old gentleman at that time was as tough and humorous as ever, and he didn't expect to leave so suddenly. Mr. Tu has gone all the way, we will always miss you!
