At the beginning of the 21st century, mainland dramas were still in a state of ignorance, but Taiwanese dramas had already opened up the era of idol dramas!
In 2003, a magic drama "Pawnshop No. 8" landed on the mainland, but it attracted widespread attention from mainland teenagers. The play not only has a poignant love story, but also a magical plot with modern colors. Many teenagers are addicted to it, fantasizing about pawns and realizing their dreams.
The love between the protagonist Han Nuo and Ah Jing also made many viewers worry about their stomachs; the girls were immersed in Han Nuo's infatuation and handsomeness, which made Du Dewei, who played Han Nuo, a red hand.
However, Du Dewei, who is half of the sky red, shows us what a "meteor-like" brilliance is! Of course, Du Dewei's popularity is not accidental, and his early achievements are even more admired.
Born in Hong Kong in 1962, Du Dewei has a mixture of Chinese, Western and Filipino ethnicity, and his handsome appearance and high recognition have left a deep impression on the audience.
Is it a soul singer, or a king of powerful singers
In 1977 and 1978, he participated in the "Amateur Singing Competition" for two consecutive years and won the second place. After returning from studying in Canada, 23-year-old Du Dewei participated in the fourth Rookie Singing Competition in Hong Kong.
With his unique voice and powerful songs, he defeated the contestants such as , , and won the championship in one fell swoop. Then signed a contract and entered the show business circle.
Songs such as "Lover", "No Heart Hurt", "Don't Go", "Innocence" and so on have been launched one after another, and he can always use his voice to sing into the emotions of the audience and resonate; it was called "Du-style love songs" at that time.
The first batch of star chasers in the Chinese music scene even called him, Tan Yonglin, Wang Jie, and Li Keqin the "four great singer kings" in the modern music scene.
Tan Yonglin - Supreme Singer King
Wang Jie - The Melancholy Singer King
Du Dewei - Chinese singer king
Li Keqin - King of Cantonese songs
Some people may be born to be extraordinary! Du Dewei is the kind of person who not only sings well, but also dances well. The limelight overshadowed the popular stars Jacky Cheung, Aaron Kwok and Andy Lau.
The first generation of Asian dance kings, Luo Zhixiang regarded him as an idol!
He once competed in street dance competitions with black people, making his dance mixed with Western elements; even Luo Zhixiang, who was 18 years younger, used his dance as a model to practice imitation; Chen Xiaochun called him the Supreme Dance King.
Dance music such as "Believe in Yourself", "Save the Earth", "Take Off" and so on is eye-catching, and the audience's mouth is always full of words such as "bold, hot, and exciting".
At that year's "Extreme Du World Tour 2014 Macau Station", Du Dewei danced passionately and excitedly, and even sang on the stage half naked wearing underwear, which made many fans scream on the spot.
After the concert, Du Dewei said: "His amphibole underwear at the concert can become his personal symbol like Michael Jackson's gloves. Later, some netizens called him "Michael Jackson of Asia."
Fines for carrying poison, rumors of prostitutes
In the entertainment industry, "people are not many" applied to Du Dewei but it is really available.
In 2002, he was found by the police in Hong Kong to carry 1.03 grams of marijuana smoke; later it was found that he did not use drugs, but he was still fined 4,000 Hong Kong dollars; and he was even provoked the first scandal "drug use"! This also laid the foundation for his development across Taiwan.
Scandals took his career to a screeching halt. In 2003, he went to Taiwan to develop, and accidentally starred in "Pawnshop No. 8", in which the black-clad boss Han Nuo played a role of countless fans, and his career reached another peak. He should have been on a bright future, but the scandal disappeared.
In 2006, Du Dewei was exposed by the Hong Kong media to "recruit prostitutes" and was even recorded in video. The whistleblower even bluntly said that "after his death, he did not pay enough for prostitution", and the spearheads were pointed at Du Dewei, but Du Dewei's agent claimed that "he has not done it, if there is, please come up with evidence." ”
Du Dewei's mother also firmly said that "if the son really recruits prostitutes, he would rather commit suicide to prove his son's innocence." But the whistleblower has never been able to produce video evidence, so this rumor is self-defeating.
Two consecutive incidents have dealt a serious blow to Du Dewei's career; programs and platforms dare not use a star with negative news. Du Dewei once fell into despair, and even moved to a building of only more than 30 square meters to live.
Career frustration, love scene triumphant
The collapse of his career did not cause him much of a blow; he had a scandal with many stars, but in 2012, he married Li Xiaobing, who was 24 years younger than himself; he gained a stable feeling of his own.
Although the "old husband and young wife" marriage has aroused the suspicion of many people, they have fought back against them with love and affection. After four years, Du Dewei, who is already 54 years old, has also ushered in his precious son.
It is said that the guests at the wedding at that time were Liang Chaowei, Zhong Zhentao, Lü Fang, etc., all of whom were big names in the film and television circle.
Wash the lead, rejuvenate the cause, and shair the devil
Decades of precipitation, Du Dewei has long since lost the impetuousness of the past, and he also looks very kind, and more on his social media is his "sunbathing photo".
Before Wu Mengda's regretful death, he also sent an article to commemorate Uncle Da, paying tribute to him as "not only a competent actor, but also a real chivalrous elder brother".
However, in January this year, he was also invited by CCTV to participate in the "2021 New Year Concert"; in June, he also participated in the movie "The Legend of the Eagle Hero Descending dragon eighteen palms", in which he played Ouyang Feng, a western poison.
Du Dewei, who is almost 60 years old, is still fighting on the public platform for the sake of the audience and the audience. Although his traffic heat was no longer there. But he still uses singing and dancing to give everyone a new feeling.
After a thousand sails is still a teenager! May his career open a new chapter!
