An excellent action movie, in addition to the actors themselves, the most important thing is the behind-the-scenes personnel, and among the behind-the-scenes personnel, the blasting stuntman has the greatest credit, and their danger factor is also relatively high.
On April 25, the Taiwan media reported sad news that Chen Mingze, a blaster stuntman who had participated in the production of excellent films such as "Horned Head 2", "Witness", and "Tears of Vulcan", unfortunately died of blood cancer at the age of 38. After the news came out, many people in the industry expressed their grief, but the saddest thing was that his daughter was just six years old.
It is understood that Chen Mingze found acute leukemia as early as June last year, for the sake of his family, he chose to do chemotherapy, about October, Chen Mingze received a bone marrow transplant, originally wanted to recover, but did not want to repeat the disease. After the doctor's treatment, Chen Mingze survived four septic shocks with tenacious vitality.
On April 23, Chen Mingze suffered the fifth septic shock, and finally lost the disease, and unfortunately died at 6 p.m. on the 24th.
The film special effects company established by Chen Mingze also posted sadly on social networks, although the founder Chen Mingze died, but the company will continue to operate, and frankly said that it will provide the safest and most professional film and television explosion special effects.
It is understood that Chen Mingze is not a film professional, before entering the film and television field, he studied aviation machinery, but when working at the airport, Chen Mingze felt like a machine, without the slightest passion, nor so-called pride, only bland. At the beginning, Chen Mingze did not want to enter the entertainment circle, and the reason why he would embark on this road was purely because of chance.
One day, Chen Mingze saw the life drama exhibition and asked for work, and he wanted to do the scene work to be closer to the stars, so he went to apply. Because the job of the field is "punching out the pump", Chen Mingze was admitted smoothly.
After entering the crew, Chen Mingze did not feel at ease to do a field worker, but followed other behind-the-scenes personnel to learn art, lighting, etc., until the filming of "Happiness Police Station", Chen Mingze was familiar with the work of blasting. "The small bulb shell is stuffed with gunpowder, and then the filament is used as a fuse, and the switch is pressed, and the bursting bulb shows the shocking power of the gun fire."

The impact of the explosion deeply touched Chen Mingze, so he officially embarked on this road.
Skills to mature, but also from a movie, that is, "Leper Hero", when the crew called Chen Mingze, and said that this time to find Hong Kong special effects artist Chi Ruitian to do the explosion, the manpower is a bit insufficient, so let him come to help, but the salary of the labor will not be very high, heard that the "master" came, Chen Mingze did not say a word, with a learning attitude to go.
After coming and going, Chen Mingze and Chi Ruitian slowly became acquainted, and finally became a master-apprentice relationship.
Today, Chen Mingze has unfortunately passed away, but the film special effects company he founded will still pass on his efforts and preferences.
All the way good, extraordinary behind-the-scenes personnel.
