I don't do big brother for many years, I don't love the edge of the cold bed, don't force me to miss, don't force me to cry, I will turn my face, I don't do big brother for many years, I just want to love well, time can't go backwards, life can't regret, love you tomorrow...
Many years ago, the "little black brother" Ke Shouliang's "Big Brother" really expressed the voice of countless "big guys in the rivers and lakes": even if they have been traversing the rivers and lakes for many years, they will also be afraid of the "cold edge of the bed" and will regret "loving you tomorrow".
In film and television dramas, there are many actors who can play villains with a fierce and evil face, but there are very few who can really interpret the temperament of a gangster through their own image.
In this issue, let's take stock of the 4 "super big guys" (ranked in no particular order) among Hong Kong actors, all of whom are domineering and have not been able to stand out so far.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >, "real big guy" Deng Guangrong</h1>
Speaking of Deng Guangrong, today's friends are certainly not very familiar, and the post-70s and post-80s are different, and they are all famous for it.
How good is Deng Guangrong?
He is the leader of Bruce Lee's development in Hong Kong, has the grace of support for big-name directors such as Wong Kar-wai, and is the nightmare of "negative man" Zheng Shaoqiu... It is also recognized by everyone as a "big brother", a true man who cherishes love and righteousness!
In 1946, Deng Guangrong was born in Shunde, Guangdong Province, and was the fourth oldest in his family.
His father, Deng Bowen, was the head of the ZhigongTang in Guangzhou, and his power was quite powerful.
When he was a child, Deng Guangrong was deeply influenced by his father, and the "jianghu flavor" on his body was relatively strong.
Coupled with the good fortune of his family, he gradually developed a character of charity and good fighting.
At first, Deng Guangrong dreamed of becoming a civil servant, but he was always considered to have an affair with the gang, so he had no choice but to give up.
In the mid-1950s, Tang Moven and his family moved to Hong Kong, where Tang Studied at New Law College and was an alumnus of future film and television tycoon Yang Shoucheng.
At the age of fifteen or sixteen, Deng Guangrong was already extraordinary, handsome, and full of star temperament.
At the age of 17, under the recommendation of friends, Deng Guangrong starred in the film Virgo "Student Prince" in his acting career, and has since stepped into the entertainment circle.
How handsome was Deng Guangrong back then?
Together with Qin Xianglin and Qin Han, he was called "three big and small students" by everyone, and he was on a par with the "fourth brother" Xie Xian, which can be described as "handsome to no friends".
Deng Guangrong is a real big brother in society, and in the film and television jianghu, whether it is appearance or temperament, it can also be called an insurmountable king level.
In the early years, Deng Guangrong mainly focused on youth genre films, especially Qiong Yao's works.
The main representative works are "Golden Christmas Eve", "Spring Dawn Returns", "Flying Man and Flying Woman" and so on.
People reach middle age, as the hairline gradually becomes higher, Deng Guangrong began to comb up the "big back", the type of male temperament does not decrease but increases, whether in real life or in the movie, is a proper big guy image.
In the 1982 gangster action film "Bloodbath Chinatown", although the plot is slightly cheesy, Tang Guangrong and Wong Kam-sun starred together, and both were male students, which added a lot to the film.
In the subsequent crime films such as "Fighting the Rivers and Lakes Again", "Dragons Soaring Around the Sea", "Yi gai yuntian" and "Jianghu Dragon and Tiger Fighting", Deng Guangrong interpreted the "gangsters" to the extreme.
Even Zhou Runfa, Li Ming, etc., who starred together, although they are also quite in place, they are inferior to three points in front of him.
Playing the big guy, because Deng Guangrong was originally born from the underworld big brother (the identity of Lian Gongle), there is indeed a suspicion of "starring in the true color", but his acting skills are also beyond doubt.
When it comes to its position in the entertainment industry, it is even more awe-inspiring.
At the beginning, in the famous "Silver Rat Team", Deng Guangrong was also one of them, and the members of this group, Zhang Chong, Xie Xian, Shen Dianxia, Qin Xianglin, Chen Ziqiang, and Chen Hao, were all top "real big guys", and their resources covered half of the entire Hong Kong film and television.
That year, at Shen Dianxia's funeral, Zheng Shaoqiu was forced by the pressure of public opinion to attend.
As a dry brother, Deng Guangrong angrily rebuked "Qiu Guan" in front of his face: "Xinyi doesn't have a father? Why are so many uncles and uncles in charge? Qiu Zai you yourself said, what have you paid to Ah Fei over the years, you tell me clearly today, how do you plan to take care of your daughter! ”
You should know that on the day of the funeral, half of Hong Kong's entertainment circles such as Xiang Huaqiang, Jackie Chan and other bigwigs have arrived, and business celebrities have also arrived.
And Deng Guangrong's righteous and outspoken words show that his brother and sister relationship with Shen Dianxia is very deep, and his true disposition is also fully revealed.
Today, the "real big man" Deng Guangrong has been ancient for 10 years, but his legendary life is still circulating in the folk.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > two, "nine-striped dragon" Chen Huimin</h1>
There is a saying in the jianghu: "There is Chen Huimin in the fist, and Bruce Lee in the leg!" ”
Being able to compare with Bruce Lee shows that Chen Huimin is by no means a waste of time.
In the martial arts world, he also had a proud record of 35 seconds KO Japanese boxing champion Morizaki Tsuyoshi in the "World Elite Fighting Competition", and his strength was quite good.
Unlike Deng Guangrong, Chen Huimin did not have a prominent family lineage, and was able to become a big gangster in the past, completely relying on a pair of iron fists.
Chan was born in 1944 to a family of seafarers in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong.
Because his father traveled for many years, he grew up with his mother, and he was very rebellious and very martial.
As a teenager, he began to contact martial arts, practiced "Tan Jia San Zhan Quan" and "Western Boxing", often with small gangsters, and met members of the Hong Kong Triad 14K.
After that, Chen Huimin passed the exam to become a prison guard guard. Two years and eight months later, he became a real Royal Hong Kong Policeman.
In the context of the special era, Chen Huimin saw clearly the deceit of the officialdom, but he was also removed from the police station, and since then he has flowed into the society and started his gangster career.
Since 1967, Chen Huimin returned to the gang and started the work of collecting protection fees, because he dared to break through and fight, he was soon deeply appreciated by the big men, and was reused and promoted.
During the protection fee, Chen Huimin also harvested love, and the other party was a beautiful cashier who admired him very much.
And this girl, who later became his wife, also suffered from imprisonment in his place. The two have been together to this day, which can be called a model couple in the circle.
In the years since, Chen Huimin has gradually climbed to the 14K "second boss", which is the top figure second only to the marshal's "double flower red stick", known as the "nine-striped dragon" in the jianghu.
By the age of 25, his strength had resounded throughout Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and his younger brothers numbered in the thousands.
At its peak, the entire Tsim Sha Tsui was under his control, and the most prosperous "Kimberley Road" at that time was known as "Chan Wai Man Street".
In the early 1970s, with the death of Bruce Lee, Chen Huimin was favored by film and television companies to fill his position as a kung fu superstar.
In 1972, Chen Huimin participated in the action film "Blood Love", and he starred with Deng Guangrong, Li Linlin and other popular stars.
Since then, Chen Huimin has successively participated in many gangster-themed films, portraying the bits and pieces of the "Jianghu people" into three points.
For example, in "Dance Hall", he played a jianghu little brother "Ah Xie";
In the film "Za Zhi", he played the role of "Grandpa Zaguan";
Another example is "Hong XingBiao Brother" in "Buy Murder Shooter";
"Uncle Big Brow" in "The Dragon in the Jianghu";
The "East Star Camel" in "Ancient Puzzle Boy 3:Hand Covering the Sky"...
In middle age, Chen Huimin's image temperament is better, and he is more comfortable playing a big guy. As far as the experience of the jianghu is concerned, even the emperor of the film cannot deduce the charm of his body.
In recent years, he has withdrawn from the film and television industry, mainly devoted to the wine business, and lives a comfortable life with his family.
When facing the media, whenever he talks about the past, he will always respond with a faint smile: In the past, the Eastern Expedition and the Western War were for survival, and after having a family, there was still any "big guy" to speak of! This society emphasizes "subjugating people with virtue and valuing peace"...
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > three, "the godfather of the film world" Wan Ziliang</h1>
When it comes to Wan Ziliang's "big brother" role, there are too many to list.
Every time he appears, he brings his own powerful aura, which makes people shudder and worship at the same time.
Able to deduce many classic big brother images, Wan Ziliang is not a real person in the jianghu, but relies on superb acting skills.
In 1957, Wan Ziliang was born in Taiwan to a family of nine surnamed Hu, who came from a very poor family.
Just a few days after his birth, Wan Ziliang was raised by a couple named Wan by his parents.
When he was a few years old, Wan Ziliang moved to Hong Kong with his parents, and his adoptive parents loved him very much.
Worse, when he entered junior high school, his adoptive father died early, and the top pillar of the family collapsed.
In order to reduce the burden on his family, Wan Ziliang decided to drop out of school and flow into the society to start working, during which time he returned to his alma mater as a secretary.
At the age of 19, coinciding with the enrollment of Hong Kong Li's TV station, Wan Ziliang applied for the exam with the mentality of trying it out, and was successfully admitted with his handsome appearance and hard work.
Since then, Wan Ziliang has become an actor and began to compose his own film and television glory.
Since 1977, he has successively starred in popular dramas such as "The Sword of the Three Young Masters" and "Xue Rengui Zhengdong", and quickly became a first-line popular student.
After transferring to Shaw's, Wan Ziliang was deeply appreciated and reused by his boss Run Run Shaw, and starred in many films such as "Waiting for dawn", "The Legend of the New Flying Fox", "Water Warrior" and so on, step by step laying the position of "a brother in the film world".
Until 1984, Zhou Runfa rose to prominence, and the two competed for acting skills in "Waiting for dawn", both of which were nominated by the Golden Horse Film Emperor, and finally ended with Zhou Runfa winning.
Although Wan Ziliang lost the Film Emperor Trophy, his acting skills are obvious to all, and most viewers believe that he crushed Zhou Runfa.
In the mid-1980s, Wan Ziliang began to focus on the field of television dramas and switched to TVB.
In 1986, Wan Ziliang starred in the TV series "Rogue Tycoon", in which he played the role of "Fang Jinchang".
As soon as the drama was broadcast, it immediately set off an unparalleled ratings frenzy and became the champion of the year.
Since then, Wan Ziliang has continued to work hard and has successively starred in popular dramas such as "Journey of Life", "Contemporary Boy", "He Comes from the Jianghu" and so on, becoming a "wireless brother" who is unyielding.
At that time, everywhere Wan Ziliang went, there were many people and a sea of people, which was extremely sensational.
It is worth mentioning that in the movie "Jianghu Love" released in 1987, Wan Ziliang and Zhou Runfa, two "big backs", once again joined forces to stage a strong showdown for fans.
This time, Wan Ziliang finally took the Golden Horse Film Emperor Trophy into his arms, which was well deserved.
Returning to the film circle, Wan Ziliang has created one classic role after another with his unique big brother image.
Like the underworld big brother in "Carmen in Mong Kok", Tanaka in "The Gambler", Jiang Tianyang in "The Invincible Battle of Ancient Puzzle Boy"...
Unlike Deng Guangrong and Chen Huimin, the reason why Wan Ziliang was able to interpret the "big guy" so well was mainly due to his own handsome image and his own powerful aura.
In the film and television jianghu is a "big guy", back to real life, Wan Ziliang is also a highly respected big brother.
It is precisely because of his support that there is a future "king of comedy", Zhang Weijian's "generation of comedians", and Lin Jiadong's "movie emperor".
Today, Wan Ziliang is 64 years old, his style is no longer there, his face is full of wrinkles, and in every wrinkle, his legendary story is written.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >4, "King of a Thousand Kings" Xie Xian</h1>
Nowadays, if it were not for Xie Tingfeng's heat, few people would know who Xie Xian was.
But from the 70s and 80s onwards, they must be familiar with this legendary old man.
Speaking of Xie Xian's position in entertainment, he dared to call Hong Jinbao "little fat", once slapped the "drama bully" Zeng Jiang, was known as the "father of the god of gambling", and the Jianghu people gave him the nickname "Fourth Brother"...
In 1936, Xie Xian was born into a wealthy family in Hong Kong, the fourth oldest in the family, and his ancestral home was Guangdong.
Growing up with a golden key, he was accustomed to a rich life from an early age, and his fate was rewritten soon after, and his fate was rewritten.
When he was a teenager, Xie Xian had no intention of studying, only thinking about how to make money.
With the gradual growth, Xie Xian looks handsome and stylish, and is simply a proper film and television star.
At the age of 18, Xie Xian was admitted to the actor training class, and after performing the first movie "Downstairs Latch Water Pipe", he has since entered the door of the show business circle.
Who thinks about this road of acting, it is more than 60 years.
Since then, Xie Xian, with a strong male image, has successively starred in film masterpieces such as "Rouge Tiger", "Difficult Brother", "Flowers in the Rain in May" and so on, red and purple.
Nowadays, when it comes to Wu Yusen's "The True Colors of Heroes", everyone can remember every classic passage here.
But before that, Xie Xian's version was the real king.
In 1967, Xie Xian was invited by director Long Gang to star in "The True Colors of Heroes", and then Shi Jian and Du Ping joined in the old drama bones, and once released, it achieved a staggering box office of HK$400,000, which restored the slump of Hong Kong films to glory.
Immediately after, Xie Xian founded the "Xie Brothers Film Company", dreaming of breaking new ground in movies, but catching up with the rise of TVB, and had no choice but to declare failure.
In the late 1970s, Xie Xian "defected" to TVB and dedicated the popular martial arts drama "Xiao Shiyilang"; soon after, he starred in "The King of a Thousand Kings", in which he played the role of "Luo Sihai".
Compared with Zhou Runfa's God of Gamblers series, "The King of a Thousand Kings" is the real "grandfather", and all kinds of thousands of techniques are dazzling and addictive.
Following "The King of a Thousand Kings", Xie Xian partnered with Wang Mingquan again and starred in the love drama "Ten Thousand Waters and Thousand Mountains Are Always Love", which once again broke the TVB ratings record.
In the following years, Xie Xian successively made film and television dramas such as "The King of a Thousand Kings Re-emerges" and "Black and White Forest", and the popularity continued unabated.
In Stephen Chow's comedy "Shaolin Football", his confrontation with Wu Mengda can be called an acting textbook, and it is outrageously bad.
Unfortunately, the "golden supporting role" has left, and Wu Mengda has not been seen.
In addition to the brilliance in the film and television circle, Xie Xian's body also has a lifetime of righteousness.
When Mei Yanfang was stopped by the gang, he immediately called Xiang Tai, which broke the siege.
Xie Xian's most controversial thing is the debt he has owed all his life.
But it has to be said that although he is affectionate, he is not vulgar, otherwise his pile of ex-wives and girlfriends would not have become "good friends" after separating from him, and he had not even said half a bad word.
Today, Xie Xian is 85 years old, looking at the changes of the years, through the prosperity of the end, the former big guy has been accompanied by the decline of "Oriental Hollywood", a little faded the light.
Although the hero is late, the classic will live forever!
In your mind, what other big guys can't be surpassed?
