On November 2, bad news spread in the entertainment industry. According to Hong Kong media reports, TVB actor Xu Zhongxin, known as "Smiley Tiger", died of illness at the age of 70.
In April this year, Xu Zhongxin changed from TVB action artist to contract artist due to physical problems.
Senior filmmaker Tian Qiwen said that Xu Zhongxin walked very suddenly: "On the morning of the 2nd, his two sons and daughters saw that he did not make a sound, walked over to shoot him, found that there was no response at all, and then called the police and sent him to the emergency room for rescue, and received a lot of booster injections, but he never responded, and at about one o'clock in the morning, he was declared dead. Because he walked so suddenly, his family didn't know what was going on, and they didn't know that he had a heart problem. ”
Tian Qiwen and the other party have known each other for about 30 years, and when they first met, they were frightened by the fierce appearance of the other party: "I used to be a little scared when I saw him, but later I became acquainted, knowing that he is straightforward and speaks out for the industry from time to time, and he is a good gentleman." ”
It is reported that Xu Zhongxin was born in 1952. At the age of 10, his parents sent him to the Peking Opera School for seven years of training. Xu Zhongxin entered the industry in the sixties of the last century, and has been working as a martial arts instructor at TVB in the seventies until now, and is known as "Master Brother" in the industry. Looking back on Xu Zhongxin's nearly 60 years of acting career, his dashing and neat body and light and sturdy posture have left a deep impression on countless audiences.
Xu Zhongxin has starred in hundreds of works. In 1980, he became a martial arts actor, and his first work was the classic martial arts play "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Subsequently, Xu Zhongxin participated in a series of popular and well-known works, including "Qian Nu Ghost", "Shocking Twelve Hours" and the action movie "Once Upon a Time: Once Upon a Time: Iron Chicken Fighting Centipede". In this film, Xu Zhongxin and "kung fu superstar" Jet Li cooperate tacitly, and he plays the role of Wong Fei Hung's fierce rival "Lei Yixiao" in the film, and the fight scene between the two can be described as wonderful.
In addition, Xu Zhongxin also served as a stand-in for actor Zheng Shaoqiu. In 1989, Xu Zhongxin wanted to complete a jump from the second floor of the tea house for Zheng Shaoqiu, and under the condition of sufficient safety measures, the accident still happened.
When he turned around and landed, Xu Zhongxin suffered a severe strain on his cruciate ligament, after which he spent 10 months to recover, and he was finally able to walk normally, but he could no longer do bouncing movements, and could only move behind the scenes to become a martial arts instructor.
However, Xu Zhongxin, who is nostalgic for the big screen, will still make cameos from time to time, but most of the villains are portrayed, such as thieves, underworld or martial arts masters, so he is also known as the "TVB royal boss".
Xu Zhongxin was last seen on October 25 this year, when actor Wu Jieqiang also posted a group photo of a friend party, attended by Hong Kong gold medal martial artists who had a glorious experience.
It is reported that Xu Zhongxin had a happy family during his lifetime, and he and his wife had been together for 30 years, and their feelings were quite deep. In his later years, Xu Zhongxin lived an ideal life of children and grandchildren, and whenever he mentioned his family, his face was full of tenderness, and his words showed his importance and love for them.
Xu Zhongxin once publicly stated that he would stick to the cause he loved until no one was hired. Now the Swedish people are gone, but he left behind many classics.
May Master Brother go well along the way!
