In the Hong Kong film industry, we are used to calling Jackie Chan a big brother.
However, in Jackie Chan's eyes, Hong Jinbao is the big brother.
Real big brother.
No matter how beautiful Jackie Chan has outside, when he sees Hong Jinbao, he has to nod his head and waist, and obediently call a big brother.
Of course, many people know that this is due to the seven small blessings.
However, Hong Jinbao's status and family lineage are more than just the Seven Little Blessings.
The surname "Hong" is a small surname, and there are not many celebrities.
Many, are with Hong Jinbao is a family.
Including a famous assassin.
01
His ancestors were from Shexian County, Anhui, and at least can be traced back to Hong Jing, who served as the prefect of Datong during the Kangxi Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty.
Hong Jing had a son named Hong Gongcai, who married the daughter of the Tang Dynasty's Yuanjia family and settled in Changzhou.
Hong Gongcai has a grandson named Hong Liangji, who is not much else to introduce, is a university inquirer, and is also a big official.
Hong Liangji had done some idle work, and had also been promoted to the third level in a row to enter the upper study, and had been a teacher for the Emperor Sun.
Just as the so-called companion is like a companion tiger, more words will be lost.
Hong Liangji is also a person who likes to speak out.
In the third year of Jiaqing, he wrote a letter to reform the maladministration, offended the emperor, and was dismissed from office.
Jiaqing was four years old, had just been reactivated, and had written again, and had offended the emperor again, this time as a capital offense.
Fortunately, someone interceded, and only then did he change to exile Ili.
Hong Liangji had a great-grandson named Hong Xi.
He lived about the same age as Hong Xiguan, but not Hong Xiguan.
Hong Xi later changed his name to Hong Shuzu and wanted to tell the story of the exploits of the old ancestors.
Unfortunately, not only did he not say it, but he also smeared a handful of black on the face of the ancestor.
In his early years, Hong Shuzu wandered among the various shogunates in the Beiyang officialdom and met Chen Baochen, Zuo Zongtang, Liu Mingchuan, Sheng Xuanhuai, Li Hongzhang and other big men.
Until he became the secretary of Zhao Bingjun, the chief of internal affairs of Yuan Shikai Group.
In the midst of the jianghu, he also met Ying Guixin, a big man of the Green Gang, and through Ying Guixin, found the killer Wu Shiying.
The three of them wanted to do something big: assassinate Song Jiaoren!
On March 20, 1913, Mr. Song Jiaoren, one of the pioneers of modern revolution and the father of constitutionalism, was suddenly assassinated when he was advancing in his career.
He died at the age of 31.
The case shocked the world, and under the pressure of public opinion and pressure from all sides, the perpetrator Wu Shiying was quickly captured and executed.
The commander, Ying Guixin, was first arrested, then jailed, and then exterminated.
Hong Shuzu was a close confidant of Yuan Shikai and naturally received many shelters.
Under the pseudonym Zhang Jiaochang, he fled and hid, and four years later, he was captured in Shanghai and personally identified by Song Zhenlu, the son of Song Jiaoren.
At this time, even yuan shikai, his patron god, was already dead.
The Song Jiaoren case, many questions, and no matter who the mastermind behind the scenes is, directly formulated the assassination plan and participated in the implementation, with Hong Shuzu being the most critical.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the main assassin.
On April 5, 1918, Hong Shuzu was hanged. This was the first time in the history of the Republic of China that a hanging machine was used.
At the time of execution, because his body was too heavy and his muscles and bones were weak, his head fell directly.
His concubine went to the hospital in Beijing, which was best at connecting corpses, to sew her head and bury her.
Before his death, Hong Shuzu left a couplet:
Serve the government, the disaster is in the body, and consciously ask the heart without shame;
When the world is chaotic, it is better to live than to die, and there is dust where it is.
02
Although Hong Shuzu became the enemy of the people, his sons were respected and loved by everyone.
Therefore, the road is under your feet, it depends on how you walk.
Hong Shuzu had three sons: Hong Shen, Hong Ji, and Hong Shuyun.
Hong Shen, shallow character, trumpet Bo Jun. He is a famous playwright, director artist and literary theorist of modern china, and a pioneer of Chinese films and dramas.
He combines screenwriting, directing and acting, and is a rare all-rounder in the mainland film and drama industry.
In his lifetime, he wrote 38 film scripts, created and translated 55 drama scripts, directed 9 films, directed 55 plays, and authored 12 monographs on film and drama theory.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he held important positions in the literary and art circles. He died in 1955.
Hong Ji, also known as Hong Zhonghao, is china's first generation of martial arts film directors, who founded a film company long before the founding of the People's Republic of China.
In 1958, after the establishment of the Shaw Brothers Company in Hong Kong, Hong Ji was invited to film.
He directs films and also directs stage plays.
Unfortunately, he died within a few years, leaving not much work.
Hong Ji is Hong Jinbao's grandfather.
Hongji's wife Qian Xiangying is a descendant of Jingwumen, the earliest martial arts actress in China, known as "China's first female hero".
In the old Shanghai and the early Hong Kong film industry, it was very famous.
After HongJi's death, Qian Xiangying single-handedly supported the whole family, which was indeed quite a heroine.
This is true not only for the family, but also for outsiders.
Actress Yu Suqiu became famous for making HongJi's films, and later her father Yu Zhanyuan wanted to start a drama school, and Qian Xiangying poured in to help, and also sent her twin young son and grandson Hong Jinbao to study.
Hong Jinbao was most loved by Zhan Yuan, and later grew up to be the master brother in the "Seven Little Blessings".
Hong Shuzu's third son, Hong Shuyun, hong jinbao's third grandfather, was also a famous early director.
Hung Shu-yun's wife, Yung Yuk-yi, was also a famous actress in Hong Kong in the 1950s and 1960s.
After moving to the United States, there is little information.
Therefore, Hong Jinbao's grandparents are all famous directors and famous actors.
The genes of martial arts and acting have long penetrated into his blood.

The Seven Little Blessings generally refer to the "Yuan" character in the Zhanyuan disciples.
He first became famous for a theatrical performance.
They are: Yuan Long (Hong Jinbao), Yuan Lou (Jackie Chan), Yuan Biao (Xia Lingzhen), Yuan Kui (Yin Yuankui), Yuan Hua (Rong Jizhi), Yuan Wu (Zhou Yuanjun), and Yuan Tai (Wang Yuantai).
Seven Little Blessings is just a name, not a fixed seven people.
Including Yuan Qiu (Zhang Zhuannan) and Yuan Qing (Yuan Heping), they can be counted as members of the Seven Xiaofu.
Most of them use stage names, and only a few have changed their real names.
For example, Yuan Qing changed back to Yuan Heping, founded the Yuan family class, and he himself became the "world's first martial finger".
By the way, Yuan Heping's father, Yuan Xiaotian, is also a famous actor and the first professional martial arts instructor.
The name Hanako in Jackie Chan's "Drunken Fist" is him.
Yuan Heping's younger brother Yuan Xiangren, in addition to being a martial artist, often made cameo appearances.
The name of Hanako in Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu" is him.
Yuan Long changed back to Hong Jinbao and founded the Hong family class.
Yuan Lou changed back to Jackie Chan (Jackie Chan is also a stage name) and founded the Chengjia class.
Of course, the reason why they don't use stage names is because they have greater development and achievements.
Needless to say, Yuan Heping and Jackie Chan are one specializing in art and one developing in an all-round way.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Hong Jinbao seems to be one level behind.
Not really, or even the opposite.
As the most flexible fat man in the Hong Kong film industry, Hong Jinbao is limited by his image and cannot play the leading role many times.
However, his status as a jianghu has not been affected in the slightest.
Hong Kong movies, for a long time, were the world of kung fu films.
Especially since Bruce Lee was born.
Hong Jinbao first followed Bruce Lee to run the dragon suit.
Bruce Lee streaked by like a shooting star, forever shining.
Behind him, there were a lot of action actors, Dragon and Tiger Martial Artists, which was the foundation of the development and growth of the Hongjia class.
Jackie Chan was the earliest, and also belonged to the hong family class members, but his fame was getting bigger and bigger, and he went out independently.
Although the family class and the Hong family class will become a competitive relationship at some times, they can be inextricably separated from each other.
Jackie Chan has also always regarded Hong Jinbao as a lifelong big brother and has great respect at all times.
Because, from playing from small to large, from small to large, it is really a lifelong friendship.
04
Hong Jinbao has made great contributions to Hong Kong cinema.
He tossed out a kung fu comedy routine and slowly handed it over to Jackie Chan.
He tossed out a zombie film routine and slowly handed it over to Lin Zhengying.
These two banners have long occupied most of the Hong Kong films.
Behind all kinds of Hong Kong movies, they are busy with the figure of Hong Jiaban.
From Bruce Lee's death to today, there are at least 40 years.
They are directors, martial fingers, and stand-ins, which are irreplaceable bones.
In the early days, technology was not developed, stunts were not advanced, but the audience liked to watch exciting.
Therefore, Hong Jinbao, these action directors, desperately designed the desperate shots.
Although Hong Jinbao studied drama, he has in-depth research on Wing Chun, Cut Boxing, Karate and so on.
Unlike Yuan Heping's outstanding beauty and Jackie Chan's laughter and fighting, Hong Jinbao's action design is more fierce and more vicious.
The most famous are the "Kill the Wolf Wolf" and "Ip Man" series.
Without him, Zhen Zidan, who became a late bloomer, may find it difficult to usher in the "second spring" of art.
In the process of Hong Jinbao's action guidance, there is another thing that has been widely circulated and there are many versions, that is, "Kung Fu".
In view of the length, Meng Yu will not expand today, and he will open a new chapter of detailed interpretation every day.
As we all know, "Kung Fu" is a dream come true of Zhou Xingchi's bet on everything.
Therefore, the requirements are very strict, which gives him a reputation for being "difficult to do".
The original action direction of "Kung Fu" was Hong Jinbao, but it was later replaced by Yuan Heping.
It is widely rumored that Hong Jinbao was fired, and he himself said that he was bitten by mosquitoes and went back to recuperate.
Meng Yu felt that this was not the most important factor.
The core is still the disagreement between the two people's creative concepts.
It is also rumored that when Hong Jinbao left, he once said harshly that whoever dared to take "Kung Fu" was his enemy.
But Meng Yu still felt that this was not the truth. Some people dare not come, perhaps because of face, or perhaps based on strength.
Looking at the entire Hong Kong circle, the only person who can replace Hong Jinbao is Yuan Heping.
They are all out of the same door, and they are all top action directors.
And Zhou Xingchi, at the end of the film, still marked Hong Jinbao's name, and the labor fee was not less.
Although it is a pity, it is also a beginning and an end.
In addition to Hong Kong and Taiwan, Hong Jinbao also continues to cooperate with the mainland to promote new talents.
For example, in that year, the Ice Girl was taken care of by the eldest brother.
