There are four major teams in Hong Kong Martial Arts, namely Liu Jia Class, Hong Jia Class, Yuan Family Class and Cheng Jia Class.
Liu Jialiang's Liu Jiaban was the earliest and had absolute dominance in the 1970s; Hong Jinbao's Hong Jiaban was full of talents and cultivated many talents for the Hong Kong film industry;
Yuan Heping's Yuan family class is more like a family team, and several brothers have supported a piece of the sky; Jackie Chan's family class has far-reaching influence and countless talents behind the scenes.
Founded in the 1970s, the Chengjia class, led by Jackie Chan, was at its most brilliant in the 1980s and 1990s.
Since its inception, the family class has worked together to create many classic action movies.
They are known as the "Flying Tigers" of Hong Kong Martial Arts, and have won the Hong Kong Film Awards 10 times and completed the "triple crown".
It is understood that the Chengjia class crew has a special "white car" responsible for transporting the injured members to the hospital;
The hospital also reserved 7 beds for the family class, and sometimes members who had just been discharged two days after being discharged were re-admitted.
It can be said that the members of these family start-up classes silently dedicate themselves to Jackie Chan's action films and dedicate their most precious youth years to Hong Kong action films.
01. Feng Ke'an
Feng Ke'an was born in an acting family in Guangdong, his father Feng Feng is not only an actor, but also a director, and his film "Xiao Lu Xiang" is Bruce Lee's masterpiece as a child star;
His mother was a famous television producer, and the talented child star Feng Baobao was his sister.
Born in such a family, Feng Ke'an has heard about it since childhood, entered the show business circle since childhood, and became a child star.
In the 1960s and 1970s, Feng Ke'an followed Liu Che to join Liu Jiaban, began the career of dragon and tiger martial artist, participated in many action movies, and also had a certain degree of recognition in martial arts.
After that, he helped Hong Jinbao for a period of time, and at the end of the 1970s, he joined the chengjia class and became a backbone member.
Because of his evil appearance, he played a lot of bad guy roles, and portrayed each role into three points.
By the mid-1990s, Feng Ke'an gradually faded out of the film and television circle, occasionally playing supporting roles in films. People are more familiar with the lack of land in "Kung Fu".
In 2016, Feng Ke'an died of esophageal cancer at the age of 65, and the Hong Kong film industry lost such a brilliant "bad guy".
02, Zhou Runjian
Zhou Runjian was one of the earliest members of the Chengjia class, and he was already a martial arts instructor when he joined the Chengjia class.
He has been in the family class for more than ten years, it can be said that he is conscientious, and many of Jackie Chan's movies have his figure, such as "Police Story Sequel", "Flying Dragon Fierce General", etc. It can be said that Jackie Chan's "Military Merit Badge" must have a copy of Zhou Runjian.
In 1992, Zhou Runjian left Jackie Chan's class, and with his own skills, he also broke through the world: "New Blue Blood Sword" and "Huang Feihong's Iron Chicken Fighting Centipede".
In the late 1990s, Zhou Runjian gradually faded out of the show business circle.
03, Lu Huiguang
Lu Huiguang is one of the more famous members of the Chengjia class, and he and Duan Weilun, another member of the Chengjia class, are known as Jackie Chan's "right and left arm".
Lo Wai Kwong is a Thai overseas Chinese who was once a Muay Thai champion. After joining the family class, he participated in several films, such as "Twisted Miscellaneous Cards", but the response was mediocre.
Until the release of "Drunken Fist 2" in 1994, Lu Huiguang's wonderful performance in the film made people shine, and he also entered the audience's vision, among which his "one word horse" in the film "Letter to Daddy" became his signature action.
Not only that, he also got the attention of Jackie Chan, and since then, he has become Jackie Chan's bodyguard and a close friend of Jackie Chan, accompanying Jackie Chan through the "thrilling" years of action movies.
In addition to participating in Jackie Chan films, one of Lu Huiguang's most well-known roles is the role of the "Prince" of the "Ancient Puzzle Boy" series, known as the Hongxing God of War.
After leaving Jackie Chan, Lu Huiguang has been appreciated by many directors with his excellent skills, and he has his presence in "Bomb Disposal Expert", "Kill wolf wolf" and "Fury Case".
04. Duan Weilun
Before joining the family class, Duan Weilun was an artist of ATV, and he was also a first-line student of ATV, and he was very favored by the owner.
But then he left ATV to join wireless, and he was gradually marginalized and did not play any important roles.
After joining the family class, Duan Weilun's career began to improve a lot. Especially after saving Jackie Chan's big brother once, he gradually became Jackie Chan's brother and bodyguard, and together with Lu Huiguang, he became the right and left arm of big brother.
In the family class, Duan Weilun starred in many excellent films, such as "Major Crime Unit", "Police Story 3" and "Police Story 4".
In 2003, Duan Weilun was fired, and then gradually faded out of the show business circle.
05. Li Qiangquan
Li Qiangquan was also one of the first to join the family class, and later introduced his younger brother Li Qianggen to enter.
Li Qiangquan has long begun to participate in Jackie Chan's films, and Li Qiangquan has li qiangquan in films such as "Young Master Of the Dragon" and "Master and Disciple Out of the Horse", but because he is "running the dragon set" in the film, people do not have a deep impression on him.
It wasn't until "Police Story 2" that it really stood out, the "little dumb" who was not tall, with glasses and suspender pants, kicked Jackie Chan three times in a row, kicking Jackie Chan at a loss.
Among them, Maggie Cheung was injured in this play, because Li Qiangquan did not grasp the strength of the push down the shelf and hit Maggie Cheung.
Because of the role of "little mute", Li Qiangquan began to attract much attention, and many investors sought him out as an action director and director, but the response was not large.
After the new century, it gradually faded out, and he also attended the meeting of the family class in the variety show.
It is worth mentioning that the documentary "Dragon and Tiger Martial Master" also has his figure, full of memories.
06, Mars
Mars is the starring role of the documentary "Dragon tiger martial artist", let us re-watch the set of Shaw and Jiahe that year, and there are many emotions.
Mars, whose original name was Jiang Rongfa, came from Tang Di's Oriental Drama School, and Cheng Xiaodong and Xu Zhongxin were brothers.
In the early days, as a child star, he starred in the films directed by Hu Jinquan, such as "Drink with Me" and "The Drunkard".
In the 80s, after joining the family class, Mars began to emerge, and almost all of Jackie Chan's early films had his presence, and he co-starred with Jackie Chan in the film "Young Master Dragon".
He is a special actor in the family class, with his own comedic effect, and the roles he plays can always make people laugh, but unfortunately he has not developed into comedy.
Slowly, Mars' career began to decline, reduced to supporting roles and even dragon sets, such as "Police Story", "Plan A", "Overlord Flower" and other films, he is a small supporting role, and now he is still working in the show business circle.
07 Bradley James Allan
Bradley James Allan is one of the few expatriates in the family start-up class, because he is not in good health, he was sent by his father to practice gymnastics since he was a child, and after coming to China, he studied martial arts with Liang Changxing and Tang Laiwei of the Beijing Wushu Team.
It was actually a coincidence that he joined the family class. It is understood that when he visited the crew of "A Good Man", he met the idol Jackie Chan as a little "fan brother".
At Jackie Chan's invitation, he showed off his kicks and jumps, conquered Jackie Chan, and joined the family class the next day.
Bradley James Allan did not disappoint Jackie Chan, and has performed well in the films "Glass Bottle", "Who Am I" and "Rush Hour".
He is also Jackie Chan's real-life apprentice and is deeply loved by Jackie Chan. Unfortunately, on August 7 this year, Bradley James Allan died of illness at the age of 48.
08. Taibao
The people with a sense of joy in the family class, in addition to Mars, there is also Taibao. Taibao' original name was Zhang Jianian, and he is a very comedic actor.
After entering the film and television circle, Taibao was first in Shaw Film Company, and worshiped noon horse as a teacher.
In Shaw's, due to his lack of outstanding looks, Taibao is more inclined to be a director behind the scenes than in front of the stage.
By chance, the Taibao who was favored by Jackie Chan has been following Jackie Chan and Hong Jinbao after joining the family class, playing various dragon set roles in the film, and sometimes acting as the assistant director of the film.
In the early films of the Chengjia class, he was almost all present: the follower in "Young Master Dragon", the policeman in "Plan A", the informant Xiao Li in "Police Story"...
In fact, compared with other members of the family class, Taibao is not a professional martial arts background, it can be said that he is a halfway monk, and he is thinner and not very capable of fighting, so his roles are mostly "gags", humorous and funny supporting roles or villains.
With this distinctive feature, he stood out in the family class, which is also a big highlight.
And with the film "Love of Running Hands" released in 2000, he won the first acting award in his life.
After leaving the family class, Taibao went to Taiwan Province to develop, film and TELEVISION series blossomed, and won the Academy Award for Film Emperor in 2020 with "Uncle Uncle".
09. Lin Guobin
When it comes to Lin Guobin, it is easy to think of the master brother of the broken water flow in "The King of Destruction", and the classic line - I am not targeting you, I mean that everyone here is garbage.
Lin Guobin joined the family class in 1985, but he has not participated in many films, mostly cameos in some small roles, such as "Police Story 2", "Plan A Sequel", etc. His work in the family class is more behind the scenes.
After leaving the family class, Lin Guobin walked to the front of the stage and became an actor. His role as the Master Brother of Broken Water in the film "The King of Destruction" starring Stephen Chow is impressive.
Subsequently, he also collaborated on several films with Ren Dahua, Jet Li, Jacky Cheung, Gu Tianle, Zhu Yin and others.
However, after participating in "Chinese Gambler" in 2000, he gradually faded out of the film and television circle.
However, Lin Guobin did not completely bid farewell to the show business circle, and participated in "Fuse", "Sweeping Drugs" and the still released "Fury Serious Case", still showing a good skill.
It is worth mentioning that the master brother of the broken water flow and the big sister of the song world, Mei Yanfang, had a relationship, but due to various reasons, the two still went to break up.
In addition to the above-known members, there are many unknown Dragon and Tiger martial artists in the Chengjia class, such as: Tang Yancan, Wang Kun, Bo Zai, Han Chun, Lai Shengguang and so on.
Although their names are not well known, it is precisely because they are not afraid of suffering and injury that they have helped Jackie Chan become a world-renowned kung fu star.
The 10 Hong Kong Film Awards, the "Flying Tigers" in Wuxing, is the best affirmation of all the members of the Chengjia class, and it is also the best proof of their strength. (Author: West Window Snow)
