Some say he lives the way all men want to live.
In 1998, Andy Lau found a good brother Wu Zongxian to record the song "Stupid Child", but Ke Shouliang, who had drunk too much, directly broke into the recording studio and sang along with it, so there was the first version of "Stupid Child". However, when it came to the press conference, Ke Shouliang could not find anyone, said that he would not come, and played a big card with Andy Lau, which was not a big thing in the life of the eldest brother Ke Shouliang.
He played with cars at the age of fourteen and worked as a stuntman at the age of sixteen, when it was the golden age of Hong Kong action movies, and all kinds of thrilling moves were live-action. Ke Shouliang, who has no education and no connections, starts from a martial artist and plays various small roles at the bottom, and it is difficult to solve even food and clothing. In 1982, when Zeng Zhiwei was filming "Best Partner", a shot of a motorcycle sliding down from the second floor could not find a stuntman, and the shooting came to a standstill. After Ke Shouliang learned of this news, he took the initiative to find the crew. He once won an award in a motorcycle stunt race in Taiwan, and most importantly, if he wanted to get ahead, he had to fight with his life. After completing this leap, Ke Shouliang became famous in the circle and became a stand-in for the dragon, flying 75 meters of highway, 80 meters of Death Valley, and more than 100 meters of Hong Kong docks.
In 1992, full of ambition, he rode his beloved locomotive. Rushing over the Beacon of the Great Wall, he said that the Great Wall is the pride of the Chinese nation, and flying over the Great Wall should be completed by Chinese. But on the eve of Hong Kong's return to the motherland in 1997, a foreigner said that he wanted to fly over the Yellow River, which was heard by Ke Shouliang, who was full of patriotic feelings, as the first flyer in Asia at that time, would never allow the first person to fly over the Mother River, a foreigner. He came up with the idea of flying over the Yellow River as a gift to celebrate Hong Kong's return to the motherland.
In 1997, China had a world-renowned and astonishing work, with nearly a thousand reporters from home and abroad and nearly 100,000 onlookers. Because of a foreigner's words, Ke Shouliang decided that no matter what the consequences, he would be the first person to fly over the Yellow River.
Unlike the stunts, flying over the Yellow River Hukou is dangerous, the river is turbulent, and if an accident occurs, there is no chance of survival. Before the official leap, Ke Shouliang made a total of three large-scale test jumps, the first time the vehicle he was driving flipped in the air, and the car fell to the ground and was directly destroyed. Fortunately, Ke Shouliang was fine, but the 300,000 funds were instantly wiped out, and this second time, the car slid 42 meters, the third time, 43 meters, but the Yellow River hukou 55 meters, that is, all three attempts failed.
You know, to fulfill the wish, his wife Song Lihua sold his home in Singapore, his father handed over his life savings to him, Ke Shouliang found a friend to piece together, and Jacky Cheung directly gave him 500,000. But all the preparations, including the equipment, cost money, and he was not allowed to try again. And formal performances are becoming more and more worrying.
On June 1, 1997, let countless people pay attention to the performance of the Yellow River began, Ke Shouliang drove the sports car to the runway, everyone did not dare to breathe, but just when it was about to take off, the car suddenly stopped, he made a slight adjustment, returned to the starting point, the re-started chariot rushed to the leap point again, the white sports car drew a perfect arc, the host Zhu Jun was even more excited, the audience was happy to run, becoming the first person to fly over the Yellow River proved to the world that Chinese had enough ability and enough courage.
Unexpectedly, just six years later, Ke Shouliang died suddenly and unexpectedly. The funeral shocked the entire entertainment circle, and almost all the famous and surnamed people in Hong Kong and Taiwan were present, jackie Chan, Andy Lau, Liang Chaowei and many other superstars. Just six years ago, he flew over the Yellow River in a sports car, and the shock of that moment aroused the awe of Chinese people around the world. But later Wu Zongxian revealed that the situation at that time was very dangerous, the body had been seriously tilted when it landed, and as long as the body was lower, it would directly die in the Yellow River. Ke Shouliang, who escaped this disaster, had planned to live a peaceful life from then on, but who wanted the accident to happen. In 2003, after drinking alcohol, Ke Yuliang had an asthma attack and could not be sent to the hospital in time, at the age of 50. What makes people even more lamentable is that after Ke Shouliang's death, he left almost no property for his family.
He dreamed of donating 50 Hope Primary Schools across the country, but only completed two and died, and finally even the money for the funeral was borrowed by his wife and friends. In order to let orphans and widows live, Andy Lau, Wu Zongxian and others first held charity concerts, and later held star charity competitions, and their son Ke Youlun entered the entertainment circle with the help of Jacky Cheung and others. When the daughter got married, Andy Lau and others appeared at the scene as a mother's family. As a stuntman, he constantly challenges the limits, as a friend, he is heroic, as a son and daughter of China, he does his best to win glory for the country, the title of big brother, Ke Shouliang deserves it.
