At that time, when Lee Shau Kee, one of the Four Evil Men, had just become famous in the film circle, he received an invitation to play a clown in a comedy, and he threw the cup on the spot: What do you mean, if I go I still use, what will the brothers on the road think of me? However, after participating in the performance, he opened up a new world for himself.
Lee Shau Kee had a face of flesh and looked fierce. When he was walking on the road, a child once saw him and directly frightened and cried.
Together with Cheng Kui'an, Ho Ka-ju and Huang Guangliang, he is also known as the "Four Evil Men" in the Hong Kong film industry, and often plays the role of a fierce villain in Hong Kong movies.
Lee Shau Kee was born in 1949 in Tsz Wan Shan, Hong Kong. Tsz Wan Shan is a gathering place for the poor, with a mixture of dragons and snakes. At that time, underworld forces were rampant, so there were small everywhere in the streets and alleys.
It is said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early. But Lee Shau Kee did not follow such a script.
His parents were tired and running for their lives, and Lee Shau Kee was messing around.
A few years later, he joined a small gang headed by Chen Shenzhi, known as the "Thirteen Taibao of Ciyun Mountain".
Because the team acted high-profile, behaved obediently, and did whatever it wanted in the neighborhood, it was quickly favored by a gang and was recruited.
After having a backer, Lee Shau Kee let go of himself, often beating people when he didn't agree, and did not do less illegal and criminal things.
Not everyone is not afraid of S, especially when they first met a brother, and may have to go to his funeral in a few days.
Confusion and fear gradually took over his heart, and he began to be infected with D-pins, just like most of the little.
All kinds of evil deeds made Lee Shau Kee's family hate him, be ashamed of him, and unwilling to interact with him, and even sometimes brothers and sisters would call the police as soon as they saw him approaching.
In 1979, Lee Shau Kee's father suddenly fell ill and died, and when he heard the news, he was stunned for a long time, and his heart was like a knife, but he felt that he had no face to face his relatives and did not go to his father's funeral. And this has also become the pain of his life.
Later, his former big man, Chen Shenzhi, understood that there was no good end to the underworld, so he relied on his perseverance to completely change his mind, and Chen Shenzhi did not forget his little brother Li Zhaoji.
Chen Shenzhi found Lee Shau Kee and persuaded him to become a man again. With the help of Chen Shenzhi, Lee Shau Kee decided to change his past wrongs, and he gradually got on the right track and eventually quit D addiction.
I have to say that Chen Shenzhi is really righteous enough, and he even entrusted the relationship to introduce Lee Shau Kee to the crew.
Although he started out doing dirty and tiring chores, Lee Shau Kee decided to say goodbye to his past self completely, so he worked hard and complained, not only doing things proactively, but also maintaining a learning heart, so he made a lot of progress, and later he could also do behind-the-scenes work such as consultants and screenwriters.
The big director Lin Lingdong felt that this guy who looked like a god was very much in line with his appetite, and he also saw the place where he shined, so
He was given the opportunity to play the role of gangster boss in some movies.
After all, he has been mixed with the underworld for more than ten years, so although he has not taken a professional acting class, he still has a lot of color in his own performance. The temperament of the underworld gangster in the film, he can be said to be exactly the same.
Later, the "Ancient Puzzle Boy" series exploded, refreshing the box office record of Hong Kong movies. This movie not only won the popularity of Zheng Yijian, Chen Xiaochun and other protagonists, But also Lee Shau Kee began to be popular throughout Hong Kong because he played the role of "Ji Ge", the little leader of the egg in it.
At that time, Hong Kong gang movies entered a period of rapid development, and many directors and producers also targeted Lee Shau Kee, and For a time Lee Shau Kee's films continued.
Because the appearance is too iconic, he basically plays a villain.
Until one day, Lee Shau Kee suddenly received a phone call, asking him to play ugly in a comedy movie.
Lee Shau Kee directly scolded the person on the phone because he felt that the other party was teasing him.
Joking, although he is no longer mixed with the underworld, but the brother is not in the jianghu, the jianghu still has the legend of the brother, not to mention that there are many little brothers calling him Brother Ji, if you go to play a clown, you must not become a joke of the brothers on the road in the future? He didn't want to lose face.
However, he did not want to lose face, he was soon punched in the face, because the other party told him that the movie was starring Stephen Chow! In Stephen Chow's films, even small people can have brilliant performances, and his films are very popular, if the performance is right, maybe they can open their popularity even more.
In the end, after weighing it for a long time, Lee Shau Kee decided to try it.
This movie is "God Eater". As it turns out, it's so fragrant!
In this movie, he plays a murderous big guy who eats delicious food and runs like a girl on the beach with a white veil. Ferocity and shyness are rubbed together in a very strange way, and this stark contrast brings a strong visual impact to people, impresses the audience, and refreshes the outside world's rigid cognition of him, and he also broadens the path of the play!
Stephen Chow is also very satisfied with Lee Shau Kee, and in later movies, as long as there is a suitable role, Stephen Chow will invite him to star.
In several of Stephen Chow's films, he left a classic screen impression on the audience.
Lee Shau Kee's status in the film circle is also even higher.
People often say that when he put down the butcher's knife and became a Buddha, although Lee Shau Kee was confused when he was young, it was fortunate that he was able to restrain the horse from the cliff in time, and finally he was bitter.
Lee Shau Kee was born with a fierce appearance, but he had a bodhisattva heart. After becoming famous, he was very righteous, and when the artists were in difficulty, he often reached out to help, and even said that as long as someone came to the door, he did not refuse to come and did his best.
Last year, as soon as the news of his death was made public, netizens felt very sorry. Although the golden age of Hong Kong cinema has gradually come to an end, the classic screen images he left for everyone will always exist in everyone's memory!
"Wicked man", all the way good! #Entertainment industry that little thing ##Stephen Chow ##Supporting role ##脱胎换骨 #
