Remember the notorious "Four Evil Men" in the Hong Kong film and television industry? Now that the three of them have passed away, only the round nose and the fierce expression of the "silly mark" huang guangliang are left.
Hong Kong's "Four Evil Men"
Born in Hong Kong in 1958, Huang Guangliang had five children in a family, but his family was not wealthy, and the family was crammed into a small low-rent house, and even eating enough food became a problem.
His mother hoped that Huang Guangliang could find a way by studying, but his mind was not on reading, and when he was 13 years old, he was expelled for making trouble at school when he was in middle school.
After being known by his mother, Huang Guangliang made a decision, that is, to leave home and go outside.
Huang Guangliang was young
Huang Guangliang believes that his mother's thinking is too narrow, and reading is not the only way out. They are too timid and kind to dare to step out of their own small world, so they can only live in such a small place forever, but he does not want to be like his parents and relatives.
But Huang Guangliang did not expect that society was cruel, and he did not have a skill and a low degree, and at first he could not even fill his stomach. When he is hungry, he can only go to work as a small worker, and he can do whatever he can mix and eat.
Actor Huang Guangliang
It can be said that each line of the seventy-two lines has yellow and bright footprints, and even the gray area he has stepped on. After years of groping and fighting at the bottom, Huang Guangliang has trained the ability to bear hardships and stand hard work.
It is precisely because of these experiences that he was favored by director Li Xiuxian in 1983 and made a cameo appearance in "Modern Yamen".
Directed by Lee Soo Hyun
This role can be said to be the true color of Huang Guangliang, so the director is very satisfied with his performance.
After contacting the actor industry, Huang Guangliang seemed to see hope, he no longer wanted to live such a dark and dark day as before, so he resolutely decided to enter the show business circle.
Yellow light bright stills
In Hong Kong, where police films and gangster movies were popular at that time, positive characters needed some crazy villains to set off.
Having a large round nose, a face full of flesh, and a tall yellow light is undoubtedly one of the best candidates.
After starring in his first film, the following year, Huang Guangliang starred again as a small in Provincial Hong Kong Flag Soldier.
Although his role in this play is not important, it still accumulates a lot of experience for him and lays the foundation for his subsequent plays.
Still
In 1987, "Prison Storm" was planned, and the positive roles set were Zhou Runfa, who rose again with the popularity of "Hero's True Colors", and Leung Ka-fai, who was popular at the time, and the lineup was extremely luxurious.
Huang Guangliang saw this opportunity, and then with his own efforts, he successfully won the role of "silly mark" in the movie. This character is not a bad guy in the traditional sense, but a very righteous figure who inserts a knife into the ribs of a friend.
Because of his outstanding acting skills and the blessing of the character's personality, "Prison Storm" received great praise as soon as it was broadcast, and Huang Guangliang, who played a silly target, also became a hit.
Not only that, but that film also produced the famous "Four Evil Men" of the Hong Kong film industry, including him, Ho Ka-koo, Cheng Kui-an and Lee Shau Kee.
The Four Evil Men of Hong Kong Cinema
Huang Guangliang won the Best Newcomer Award at the 7th Hong Kong Film Awards for his role as a fool, which not only affirmed his acting skills, but more importantly, brought him more opportunities.
After Huang Guangliang turned over by "silly standard", there were more invitations, and he first cooperated with Zheng Yuling and Feng Baobao in "Women's Prison".
In 1990, he also participated in the comedy movie "Happy Ghost Saves Happy Ghost", partnering With Huang Baiming and Yang Baoling, in which he played a stupid and cute mourner.
In 1991, Huang Guangliang once again starred in the silly mark in "Prison Storm 2", and in the same year, he also continued to output two other film and television dramas, which can be said to be a year-round state, busy and full.
Although most of the roles he plays in these movies are like derivatives of silly targets, Huang Guangliang has always enjoyed it and has become the golden supporting role of Hong Kong gangster films, and is also an indispensable "green leaf".
After 9 years of hard work in the show business, huang Guangliang, who was successful, came up with the idea of starting a company, and soon after, he and a friend set up a film company.
In 1992, he served as an executive producer himself, filming and starring in the movie "He Ri Jin Again". Unfortunately, after the release of this movie, the box office was mediocre and there was no splash.
At first, Huang Guangliang did not want to give up, he humbly asked a number of directors for advice, and then successively launched the movies "Shadow Pursuit" and "Three Injured Policemen". But none of them achieved too good results, and it didn't take long for the company to announce bankruptcy.
It was also at that time that Hong Kong's police films gradually declined, and Huang Guangliang's acting career was also affected to a certain extent. From 2000 onwards, he appeared almost exclusively in comedy movies or variety shows.
Seeing that the film and television industry was in a slump, Huang Guangliang hit the idea of doing business on the timber business.
Later, he opened a wood company in the mainland, but it was revealed in 2010 that he was in arrears with nearly 10 million yuan in payment to suppliers.
The people who were owed money even dragged banners to the company's door to make trouble. This incident was very noisy at the time, and it was almost full of storms.
Arrears events
But Huang Guangliang's side denied it, saying that the matter would be handled by lawyers and the police, and that the matter was not later put on the table.
Although Huang Guangliang's business acumen is not very good, the import fresh wholesale business invested by him and his wife has been doing well, and the life of the husband and wife is relatively better. After that, Huang Guangliang gradually faded out of the entertainment circle and began to enjoy life.
Yellow light
Until 2013, he received an invitation to participate in the TV series "Old Watch, Hello! In collaboration with Guo Jin'an, Wang Zulan, and Wan Qiwen, Huang Guangliang plays Wang Zulan's father, one of his few good old men.
Interestingly, because Wang Zulan has a round nose similar to him, and similar facial features and eyebrows, he was once rumored by the media that Wang Zulan was his illegitimate son who was exiled.
TV drama crew
But in fact, this rumor existed long before they cooperated, and Wang Zulan was misunderstood by other actors who worked together, believing that his father was Huang Guangliang.
Although he clarified it later, because he did not have any intersection with Huang Guangliang at that time, it had no effect.
Actor Wang Zulan
After this cooperation, the two clarified together, saying that they only looked similar. Huang Guangliang in real life, although he is married, has never had children, so Wang Zulan cannot be his own child.
Because of these things, they often referred to father and son in public, although they were not biological, but they were like father and son.
Huang Guangliang and Wang Zulan
A large part of the reason why Huang Guangliang came back this time is for his hobbies.
After filming "Old Watch, Hello! After that, in 2014, Huang Guangliang cooperated with Wang Zulan again and starred in its sister article "Old Watch, Hello Heata!" 》。 But I don't know if it was to avoid suspicion, this time they did not play father and son again.
Since then, Huang Guangliang's film and television drama output has been very stable, maintaining a frequency of one film a year.
TV series poster
In 2015, in the TV series "Peace is Precious", he appeared again, playing a role of loyalty and righteousness, and zhi en Tu Bao.
At that time, TVB gradually declined, and Hong Kong local dramas were slowly not as well-produced as before. Even after introducing mainland TV dramas, Most Hong Kong artists have chosen to return to the mainland for development.
At that time, Fan Bingbing starred in the "Legend of Wu Meiniang" in Hong Kong, and the premiere was as high as 24 points, which directly became the highest-rated TV series that year.
Just when everyone thinks that Hong Kong local dramas stop at this time. In 2016, the TV series "The Gangster Under the Fire Line" starring Huang Guangliang and Zheng Zeshi was ordered to break this embarrassing situation.
And they also lived up to expectations, the TV series reached 30 points in the peak ratings, directly exceeding the former by 6 points, which can also be regarded as saving tvB at that time.
Also because of the fire of this drama, in 2018, it also launched its "couple film" "The Sister-in-law in the Fruit Column", in which Huang Guangliang played an important role.
He can be said to be the "evil man" with the longest acting career in the Hong Kong film and television industry.
Because other evil people are not as lucky as he is, "big fool" Cheng Kui'an died of illness as early as 2009, he Jiaju, the head of the four evil people, also died of illness in 2015, and "Ji Ge" Li Zhao's gene spread for liver cancer and unfortunately left in 2019.
None of them have carried the 70-year-old barrier, and among the "four evil people" now, only Huang Guangliang is still living in the world in good health.
Now it has been 2 years since Lee Shau Kee's death, and Huang Guangliang is also 63 years old, and his face has become more and more kind under the baptism of time.
Now he is still on the way to filming, or come to the mainland to pick up business performances. It's just that because of the older age, the number of times has decreased a lot.
In his spare time, Huang Guangliang's figure will also appear on a certain tone, he likes to send some videos of himself singing, he looks tough, full of breath, and his spirit is very good.
Perhaps because of the decline of the Hong Kong film industry, many people like Huang Guangliang have gradually been forgotten by the times, and many years later, they may only remember the two protagonists.
But for his fans, he has always been the best actor on the screen, and even if it is long, it will still be remembered.
Finally, I hope that Huang Guangliang can live a long life, be healthy, and reach the peak of his beloved career.
