In our parents' generation, if we talked to them about who their favorite movie star was, I think many people would blurt out ——— Andy Lau.
Why is it that after so many years, Andy Lau's popularity is still so high, and his influence continues to this day?
- He has performed many popular classic film and television works and song works
In 1983, after starring with Chen Yulian, "The Condor Heroes" achieved a 62-point rating after being broadcast on Hong Kong Television, which was the ratings champion of the year, and Andy Lau vividly interpreted Jin Yong's Yang Guo's handsome appearance and uninhibited appearance. The 1983 version of "Condor Heroes" has also become one of the most classic versions in most people's hearts.
The following year, Andy Lau and Liang Chaowei, who had been in the same training class, participated in another Jin Yong work——— "Deer DingJi", in order to better interpret the role of Kangxi, Andy Lau did a lot of homework behind his back, through querying information, understanding the historical background of the Qing Dynasty to feel Mr. Jin Yong's original intention of designing the role of Kangxi.
Every time Andy Lau participates in a film and television work, he will privately spend a lot of time seriously polishing the role, script, and lines, and pour all his energy into each role.
On the set, conscientious and diligent, whether it is as an actor, moving props, or as a stand-in, Andy Lau is rushing to do it.
Andy Lau's serious and responsible attitude towards his work has also made Andy Lau win many Academy Awards and Golden Horse Awards by relying on these film and television works.
Andy Lau not only achieved great success in the film and television industry, but also showed his strength in the music world.
In 1990, he won the 13th Golden Melody Award for the top ten Chinese with the song "Can You Please", which also established his position in the music industry. In the later period, the songs sung by Andy Lau also won the Golden Melody Award of the Top Ten Chinese and the Golden Melody Award of the Top Ten Songs.
In 2005, Andy Lau sang the song "Wishing you prosperity" on the stage of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, so that every year after that, at the New Year's Day, both shopping malls and supermarkets could hear Andy Lau singing the song "Wishing you prosperity".
In contrast, now, in this era of "traffic is king", the production of film and television dramas no longer pays attention to the plot, nor does it pursue the acting skills of actors.
As long as the actor has a strong fan base and strong capital behind him, even if the actor has no acting skills, as long as he draws a delicate makeup to stand in front of the camera, he can finish the entire TV series by maintaining an expression throughout the whole process.
Actors with bad lines, as long as their mouths read 1, 2, 3, the lines are handed over to the post-voice actors. The lead actor takes the most paid and does the easiest job.
Maybe everything is so easy to get, but it also caused some young actors to be unmotivated, muddy waters, and there are fewer and fewer excellent works.
Looking at the actors of the older generation before, the reason why they can now also be welcomed by the public is part of the luck, but more rely on their own efforts, they continue to improve their acting skills, steady and steady little by little to accumulate fans.
- Always treat the people around you with a grateful heart
It is an accepted fact that Liu Dehua is of good character.
He treats his fans like his own family, and if he likes gifts, he can cherish them for a long time and remember the names of the fans who gave them.
Whether it is after the concert or at the scene of the award; the first to thank is their own fans.
At the fan meeting or signing party, no matter how tired the body is, there is still a smile on the face;
Concert scenes, public places, regardless of the security guards and their own safety, but also to meet the fans' close contact with the idol's wishes, but also really did the pet fan crazy demon.
Whether it is "inside the circle" or "outside the circle", Andy Lau has done countless good things.
Outside the circle, such as Su Huawei, the "six gold winners" who helped the athletics project of the 4 paralympic games, survived the difficulties of life.
In 1988, Andy Lau, who had just returned, donated 5 million yuan to the floods in East China.
In the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, Andy Lau donated 50.1 million yuan and actively called on other artists to participate in this rescue operation.
In the "circle", Andy Lau has also promoted many newcomers, such as Zhang Hanyun, Chen Shaoxia, Lin Jiadong.
Zhang Weijian owed a large amount of debt due to the failure of real estate investment, Andy Lau reached out to help him, wrote him a huge check, helped Zhang Weijian tide over the difficulties, and this kindness of sending charcoal in the snow has always been remembered by Zhang Weijian.
At that time, Andy Lau also launched a "Asian Rising Star Director" program to help newcomer directors, allowing young directors to play to their fullest, and all the risks he took himself, and Ning Hao also stood out from this plan.
The positive energy that spreads on him not only affects his fans, but also affects everyone he helps.
I hope that the current well-known artists can spread some positive energy values to the society, rather than passing on the wrong values to the fans, constantly refreshing the moral bottom line of social cognition, and making the social atmosphere develop in a bad direction.
