Mention Zeng Zhiwei and Andy Lau, I think everyone is already very familiar with it.
Tsang Chi Wai, a well-known artist in Hong Kong, he is sleek, his brain is fast, and his reaction ability and funny ability are also a must. Not only have I made movies, hosted variety shows, but also invested in many movies.
He has a good friendship with Jackie Chan, Shu Qi, Hong Jinbao, Tan Yonglin and other bigwigs in the circle, and his wide network is evident.
In addition, since stepping into the entertainment industry, Zeng Zhiwei has nearly 47 years of experience, and his qualifications are also very deep, and even because of his lofty status, he is known as a "prize doorman" in Hong Kong.
Andy Lau is a king-level figure, his musical works are as high as thousands of songs, and there are already hundreds of TV dramas and movies he has participated in, which can be said to be a celebrity figure in all of China and even the world.
With the position of Zeng Zhiwei and Andy Lau in the circle, whether in Hong Kong or inland, it can be said that there are many people who rush to seduce them.
But it is such 2 people, but one took the initiative to make a movie for Ke Shouliang's wife and children, and the other took the initiative to hold a "commemorative concert" for Ke Shouliang's wife and children.
This inevitably makes people curious about Ke Shouliang's identity, what ability does this person have to get another eye from Zeng Zhiwei and Andy Lau?
01
Ke Shouliang was born on February 22, 1953 in a small county town called Xiangshan in Zhejiang Province.
He was originally a native of mainland China, but due to the influence of the current situation, he moved to Taiwan with his parents and family to make a living.
When he was in Taiwan, Xiao Ke Shouliang has always been a debauchery and freedom-loving person, unlike the children of the same age who follow the steps and study every day. At the age of 14, he fell in love with the extreme sport of motorcycles, and often went out with his friends to ride on the grounds of driving pleasures.
And this inadvertently laid the foundation for his stuntman career.
In 1969, in order to get his family out of poverty, 16-year-old Ke Shouliang dropped out of school despite his parents' objections and then came to Taipei alone.
The Hong Kong and Taiwan regions in the 1970s can be said to be the hottest era of the film and television boom, and film and television actors are emerging in an endless stream.
Not only are they bright and beautiful, but the film remuneration is also very impressive, and this also allows Ke Shouliang to see a new way out of poverty.
In 1970, when Ke Shouliang learned that a movie star school in Taiwan was enrolling students, he felt that his opportunity had come, so he took the exam.
However, because Ke Shouliang's education level was not enough, he could only apply for the stunt class that did not have high admission requirements at that time.
As a result, it is conceivable that with his strong physique and unusual boldness, Ke Shouliang successfully entered the stunt class and learned to perform stunts.
In the process of learning, Ke Shouliang fully demonstrated his talent in the sport of motorcycle racing.
Not only did he win the championship in the motorcycle racing world, but he also used his strengths when learning stunts, completing many difficult moves that surprised teachers.
This also allowed Ke Shouliang to successfully enter the film industry as a stuntman in the same year.
Of course, being a stuntman is not a simple thing, their work risk factor is extremely high, fractures are common, and even some people have confessed their lives on it.
However, on the contrary, if you can achieve success in this regard and make a difference, you will inevitably have a smooth path.
Obviously, Ke Shouliang belongs to the latter.
When shooting action movies, almost every shot of Ke Shouliang is a fight for his life, he is bold and careful, and his unique and dangerous flying car technology is beyond the reach of many of his peers.
This made him not long after breaking out a little bit of fame in the industry, that is, at this time, Zeng Zhiwei got rid of the identity of the Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist and became a director.
02
In 1982, Zeng Zhiwei's first film "Best Partner" after joining New Art City Pictures began filming.
At the beginning, the filming work went very smoothly, and the leading actors slowly cultivated a tacit understanding between them, and everything was developing in a good direction.
However, when the key plot was filmed, Zeng Zhiwei encountered a problem.
In the movie "Best Partner", there is such a set of shots:
An actor wearing a helmet broke through the glass from a 30-foot building above the ground, flew down on a motorcycle, and landed firmly on the ground.
This action seems to be completed in a simple two or three seconds, but the risk is so great that only an insider can see it.
Therefore, when Zeng Zhiwei was looking for a stuntman for this action, he suffered a lot of closed doors, even if he paid a large price to hire foreign stuntmen, people also showed that they were unwilling to try.
Later, Zeng Zhiwei heard from others that there was also a number one figure like Ke Shouliang, and he immediately threw an olive branch to Ke Shouliang.
Unexpectedly, Ke Shouliang took over this work without saying a word.
During the filming, in order to ensure ke Shouliang's personal safety, Zeng Zhiwei invited two ambulances to escort him at the scene.
However, until all the thrilling maneuvers are complete, the two ambulances have no place to play their part.
Under the attention of everyone, Ke Shouliang perfectly digested and executed this action, which not only amazed the staff present, but also made the audience in front of the film and television camera shoot the case.
In this regard, Ke Shouliang became a friend that Zeng Zhiwei admired, and also became the most daring star besides Jackie Chan, known as "Ke Bold".
For a time, film and television drama contracts came pouring in.
In 1984, Jackie Chan, who heard of Ke Shouliang's "prestige", personally stepped out and hired him as an action director in his movie "Fast Food Truck".
During the cooperation period, many of Ke Shouliang's filming concepts coincided with Jackie Chan, and the friendship between the two people also became deeper and deeper.
Therefore, in many movies after Jackie Chan, there is a figure of Ke Shouliang.
For example, the footage of Jackie Chan driving across the highway in the movie "Dragon and Tiger Brothers" filmed in 1986 was completed by Ke Shouliang instead of Jackie Chan.
With his in-depth cooperation with Jackie Chan, Ke Shouliang's role and role in film and television dramas have slowly re-emerged.
That is, on the way to shoot the film, he successively met his future wives Song Lihua and Andy Lau.
03
Ke Shouliang's appearance is not handsome, which is something that everyone knows, but what is even more precious than looks is that Ke Shouliang is very generous, honest, and very moralistic, and Song Lihua values his character.
When in love, Ke Shouliang took good care of Song Lihua, and even had the intention of marrying her home not long after they met, and even Ke Shouliang's parents were also very fond of the girlfriend that their son had dragged.
However, Song Lihua's parents did not look up to Ke Shouliang.
Ke Shouliang's work is very dangerous, which is something that everyone can see, so the reason why Song Father and Song Mother oppose the marriage between the two is that even if Ke Shouliang suddenly dies one day, leaving his daughter alone in the world to suffer.
However, Song Lihua had an iron heart, and in order to marry Ke Shouliang smoothly, she did not hesitate to force her parents to die, in exchange for the consent of the second elder.
Here, Ke Shouliang's love has blossomed, and over there, his connections are also expanding.
Ke Shouliang met Andy Lau, who was 8 years younger than him, during a film shoot.
At that time, Andy Lau had just dabbled in the film industry not long ago, and he would always be a little rusty when shooting shots about action, but Ke Shouliang looked at this young and handsome young man with a sense of seeing the same thing.
So in filming, he provided Andy Lau with a lot of action, technical help, and even occasionally brought him food to eat.
In this way, the two became more and more acquainted and became the best friends who talked about everything. In the process of intersecting with Andy Lau, Ke Shouliang also gradually developed a strong interest in music.
In 1998, Andy Lau collaborated with Wu Zongxian on a song called "Stupid Child", but in the process of recording, he always felt that there was something missing from the two people's singing.
It wasn't until he heard Ke Shouliang sing the lyrics of "Stupid Kid" in his own blunt and thick voice that he found what he wanted to hear.
Therefore, Andy Lau invited Ke Shouliang to come in and sang this song "Stupid Child" with Wu Zongxian and 3 people.
The following year, Ke Shouliang released his first song "Big Brother":
"I haven't been a big brother for many years, I don't love the cold edge of the bed, don't force me to miss, don't force me to cry, I will turn my face"
The song is still sung today.
With the advancement of the work, Ke Shouliang's position in the circle has also risen with the water, and even Andy Lau has to call him a black brother.
The fame rose and the money earned became more, which was originally a good thing for his wife Song Lihua, but it did not come to mind, and her husband Ke Shouliang began to deteriorate.
04
Just when Song Lihua was pregnant with her third child, Ke Shouliang cheated.
At a beauty pageant, Ke Shouliang met Xie Donna, who was 23 years younger than him.
Xie Donna people are beautiful, not to mention, but also very good at things, during the two people's interaction, Ke Shouliang often took her to the circle of parties, paving the way for her to take resources.
The brothers around Ke Shouliang watched him make mistakes, and only felt that he was on a whim, so he didn't think so much, but instead helped him hide from Song Lihua.
But he forgot that paper could not contain the fire after all, and the reason why Song Lihua did not worry too much about this matter with him was not because she did not know that her husband was cheating, but that the 3 children in the family had made her busy and did not have the energy to take care of it.
However, with Song Lihua turning a blind eye, Ke Shouliang acted more and more boldly.
He often went to various entertainment venues, and did not leave his body every day, either drinking, or on the way to drink, and then when he was drunk, he ran to Xie Donna's house to rest.
It was not until 2003 that Ke Shouliang returned to the home of his original wife, Song Lihua, due to work.
Her husband's infidelity did not hit Song Lihua's spirit, and compared with the previous spirit, Song Lihua, who had 3 children, became exceptionally virtuous.
Looking at his wife's eyes and seeing the surprised look on her return, and then looking at the 3 children who were well-raised, Ke felt a sense of guilt in his conscience.
Immediately, he decided to spend time with his wife and children in the future, but this companionship did not last long.
At the beginning of December of the same year, Ke Shouliang once again drank outside and was brought home by Xie Donna, who was called by his younger brothers.
That night, he died suddenly of asthma from drinking and dying in Bed at Xie Donna's house.
Suddenly, after learning of Ke Shouliang's death, people did not care what he died for, but focused on Xie Donna's body.
The fact that he died in his lover's house was enough to make Ke Shouliang's late holiday insecurity.
Unexpectedly, in the past friendship between the two, Song Lihua, who had been wronged, still chose to stand up and protect her husband's reputation.
She not only personally clarified the scandal between the two, but also took the initiative to take over the power and handle Ke Shouliang's posthumous affairs.
05
Ke Shouliang's funeral was held immediately, and more than 200 stars came to mourn, including Zhou Huajian, Zeng Zhiwei, Hong Jinbao, Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Han Hong and others who attended his funeral.
Due to Ke Shouliang's profligacy before his death, the family property has run out, looking at poor Song Lihua and his 3 children, his former friends have put some cash on the table.
Even in front of Ke Shouliang's portrait, Jacky Cheung, Tsang Zhiwei and Andy Lau solemnly promised to help him take care of his wife and children.
On May 7, 2005, Andy Lau found friends in the circle to fund the "Commemorative Concert" of Ke Shouliang, and handed over all the money earned from the concert to the Song Lihua family.
Zeng Zhiwei made a special film and handed over the box office revenue earned to Song Lihua.
Jacky Cheung, on the other hand, brought Ke Shouliang's son Ke Youlun into the singing world.
It can be said that they have all fulfilled their commitment to Ke Shouliang.
Looking back on Ke Shouliang's life, he was successful in his career, and in friendship, he gained a large number of good brothers, but in the family, he always owed Song Lihua, and lost his life when he wanted to correct.
This incident tells us that people live a lifetime, we must cherish the present, and we must not do things that make us regret.
