01 Behind the scenes of the yellow river, Jacky Cheung took 300,000 to help
On June 1, 1997, how big was Ke Shouliang's battle across the Yellow River? CCTV dispatched two helicopters to broadcast the whole process, the onlookers on both sides of the Yellow River exceeded 100,000 people, Ke Shouliang himself for this challenge to ruin the family, so that when he died, his family did not even have money for the funeral.
Many people do not know that the song god Jacky Cheung is also one of the heroes who helped Ke Shouliang successfully fly over the Yellow River.
As early as 1992, Ke Shouliang successfully challenged the Great Wall. In Singapore at the time, he learned from the newspaper that there was an Englishman clamoring to challenge the great wall.
As a stuntman, Ke Shouliang believes that this tone must be contested, and foreigners cannot be the first to fly the Great Wall.
On November 15, 1992, Ke Shouliang successfully flew over the Beacon Tower of the Great Wall and jumped from Luanping County in Hebei Province to Miyun County in Beijing in less than 10 seconds.
He once said: "The Great Wall is the father, the Yellow River is the mother, I am a Son and Daughter of China, I want to represent the Sons and Daughters of China to prove to the world, we can Chinese." ”
Ke Shouliang's next goal is to complete the feat of flying across the Yellow River before Hong Kong's return to china.
Flying over the Great Wall cost more than three million, and flying over the Yellow River eventually doubled fivefold. The expenses of more than fifteen million yuan cannot be taken out by Ke Shouliang alone.
After the old father's coffin book and the wife's money for selling the house were all used up, Ke Shouliang took the pamphlet and begged for people everywhere, and he almost fell to his knees, but even if there was a successful case of flying the Great Wall in front, no one paid attention to him.
In the end, Ke Shouliang thought of a very good friend who did business, and thought that the other party's family was big, and he had also received his own help, and it should be no problem to borrow 200,000 yuan. Who knew that the other party actually ignored the past love and directly refused, which made Ke Shouliang feel disheartened.
When all thoughts were gray, Ke Shouliang dialed Jacky Cheung's phone, and Jacky Cheung did not say anything and directly asked for an account, calling 300,000 to enter.
The stunt challenge itself is very money-burning, Ke Shouliang himself is free and accustomed, when he died, the family could not get a penny, it is said that at this time, including Jacky Cheung, a large group of friends in the circle raised funds to help the funeral of the eldest brother.
Jacky Cheung also brought Ke Youlun, Ke Shouliang's son who loved music, and another heavenly king took on the responsibility of marrying Ke Shouliang's daughter...
02 Andy Lau helped him publish records out of his own pocket and sent his daughter to marry him
In 1998, a drunken Ke Shouliang broke into the recording studio and saw Andy Lau and Wu Zongxian recording "Stupid Child", and he couldn't help but go up and kick it up, and unexpectedly sang very well.
So Andy Lau thought about it for a moment and changed the "Stupid Kid" that was originally scheduled for two people to sing together to a three-person chorus.
In the words of Andy Lau: "Of the three people, two of us are singers, he is not, but he is the best singer." ”
Although Andy Lau and Wu Zongxian have also worked hard all the way to the present, the spirit of freedom, strength and self-ridicule told in the song of "Stupid Child" is completely a portrayal of Ke Shouliang's life.
Ke Shouliang was born in a fisherman's family, the sun and rain created dark skin, he did not read much books, at the age of 16 he went out to beg for a living, accidentally hit the entertainment circle, but because of his appearance is not outstanding, he can only rely on stunt performances to survive.
But he is righteous, his personality is frank, half of the entertainment circle is his friend, and because of this, even if he plays a temper and does not participate in the "Stupid Child" conference, Andy Lau can only spoil the big brother and not blame him for half a sentence.
Andy Lau also saw Ke Shouliang's Mai Ba physique, and his heart was set on helping Big Brother complete the dream of making a record. The "I haven't been a big brother for many years" sung so far is what Andy Lau did out of his own pocket and helped Ke Shouliang.
Some people say that it is not because Ke Shouliang sang this song that people are called big brothers, but because he is a big brother himself, he is qualified to sing this song.
In life, Ke Shouliang treats his friends with all his heart and guts, and has more love for the country and society, so many people respect him.
Obsessed with stunts and charity all his life, he died leaving only a house still in a mortgage. Andy Lau and Jacky Cheung, Wu Zongxian, Zeng Zhiwei and other friends in the circle have been helping Ke receive the life of a good wife and children over the years.
When Ke Shouliang's daughter Ke Lizhen got married, Andy Lau and Jacky Cheung attended as a mother's family to marry their daughter on behalf of the elder brother, which also made up for Ke Shouliang's regret before his death.
03 Flying car stunts to hang Hollywood actors, Zeng Zhiwei was shocked to the point of forgetting to shout stop
Before becoming the cousin of the pheasant, Ke Shouliang had successfully leapt over the Great Wall, and his famous work was also completed by bicycle.
In 1982, Zeng Zhiwei was struggling with a flying car scene in his debut film "Best Partner", and he asked the stuntman to ride a bicycle down the second floor of the mall.
Whether it is a specially invited stuntman from Hollywood, or a well-known Motorcycle stunt expert in Japan, after seeing the tens of meters high venue, they all shake their heads one after another, saying that this will break the waist bone, and whoever takes this job is a fool.
Zeng Zhiwei really remembered a "fool" in his heart, he was Ke Shouliang.
In the 1970s, Ke Shouliang won the motorcycle steeplechase and was invited to Hong Kong as a stunt instructor, but he was still unknown.
After taking the list of Zeng Zhiwei, Ke Shouliang took it as his goal and practiced it himself for a week.
Zeng Zhiwei instead played the drum of retreat, and also advised Ke Shouliang not to count. Despite Ke Shouliang's good intentions, Zeng Zhiwei still called two or three ambulances to prevent accidents.
The moment Ke Shouliang successfully completed all the actions, the audience was stunned, and Zeng Zhiwei, as a director, was so surprised that he forgot to stop.
"Ke Bold" thus made his name.
After "Best Partner", Ke Shouliang was hired by Jackie Chan to serve as a stunt guide for "Fast Food Truck" and "Brother Dragon and Tiger Brother", and he personally drove a sports car in Yugoslavia to fly over a six-lane highway with a length of 75 meters in "Brother Dragon and Tiger Brother", which is also a scene in the history of film and television stunts that is still popular.
With Ke Shouliang's success in the field of stunts, he was originally limited by his appearance and could not receive any scenes, but he also began to be reused by some directors and had the opportunity to try to be a director himself.
However, Ke Shouliang's favorite thing is stunts, and after flying over the Yellow River, he completed the challenge of flying over the Potala Palace in 2002.
When surveying the Yellow River, Ke Shouliang found that there were many out-of-school children in the area, and Ke Shouliang, who had also interrupted his education because of poverty, announced that for every time he jumped over a landmark building, he would raise funds to build a primary school.
Unfortunately, in 2003, Ke Shouliang was only 50 years old when his asthma suddenly worsened due to excessive alcohol consumption.
The big brother who bid farewell to the jianghu is still the big brother, and people will always remember him.
