Mentioning the 1992 comedy film "92 Black Roses to Black Roses" directed by Liu Zhenwei and cooperated by Liang Jiahui, Mao Shunjun, Feng Baobao, and Shao Meiqi, I believe that many senior fans are deeply impressed. This classic film not only achieved box office success at the beginning of its release, but also won multiple nominations at the 12th Hong Kong Film Awards. However, this work can be successfully shot, and there are many relationships with Andy Lau.
In 1990, Liu Tianwang, who was in the film industry, established his own "Tianmu Company" and shot his first film, "91 Divine Eagle Heroes". In order to add gimmicks to the film, Andy Lau invited Wong Kar-wai as the screenwriter of the film. However, Wong Kar-wai dragged his hands on the script, resulting in a delay in filming. In order to alleviate the situation, Wong Kar-wai invited his friend Liu Zhenwei to save the scene. It is precisely because of his participation in the production of "91 Divine Eagle Heroes" that Liu Zhenwei had the idea of shooting "92 Black Roses to Black Roses".
In the original production team of "92 Black Roses to Black Roses", Liu Zhenwei was only responsible for writing the script, and the director of the primary selection was Chen Shanzhi. However, with Chen Shanzhi's departure in the middle, Liu Zhenwei was also promoted from screenwriter to director and directed the shooting of the whole film. Liu Zhenwei initially wanted Andy Lau to play the role of the male protagonist "Lu Qi", but Andy Lau felt that this role was too obscene and inappropriate for him, so he refused. Subsequently, Liu Zhenwei found Liang Jiahui to play the role of "Lü Qi".
In "92 Black Roses to Black Roses", "Lu Qi" played by Leung Ka Fai can be described as one of the biggest highlights of the film. Because of his appearance in the film, Leung Ka Fai also won the honor of "The 12th Hong Kong Film Awards - Best Actor". It is worth mentioning that the film emperor who competed with Leung Ka Fai in that year was also Stephen Chow, who was shortlisted for "Death Judge", and Jackie Chan, who was shortlisted for "Police Story III Super Police".
In the early 1990s, Stephen Chow attracted much attention in the Hong Kong comedy film industry, and "The Inquisitor" was also a very representative work of Stephen Chow in the early days. However, at the 12th Academy Awards ceremony in 1993, Leung Ka Fai defeated the "king of comedy" with nonsense comedy. Similarly, "Police Story III Super Cop" helped Jackie Chan win the 29th Golden Horse Film Emperor, but also defeated Leung Ka Fai at the 12th Academy Awards.
In "92 Black Roses to Black Roses", in addition to Liang Jiahui's wonderful interpretation, the performances of Feng Baobao, Shao Meiqi, Huang Yunshi and Mao Shunjun are also quite brilliant. The film was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture that year. It is worth mentioning that it is precisely because of the experience of "Lü Qi" in "92 Black Roses to Black Roses" that there is a wonderful performance of "Duan Huangye" in Liang Jiahui's "East becomes West".
