In 1985, the "Wireless Five Tigers" Andy Lau led Liang Chaowei, Huang Rihua, Tang Zhenye and Miao Qiaowei to rise up, planning to jump ship collectively.
In order to protect the cash cows, the top management decided to break them one by one, and Andy Lau's attitude as the initiator was naturally resolute, but he did not expect that the good brother Liang Chaowei would be easily reversed.
It was often the leaders who suffered from the failure of the plan, and Andy Lau was forced to sign an "unequal treaty" by the radio snow.
And Liang Chaowei has also been controversial because of his original "betrayal".
In 2020, Huang Rihua's wife died of illness, and Liang Chaowei did not even send a wreath, which is difficult not to wonder whether Liang Chaowei is really incompatible with other people as rumored outside?
In fact, the truth of the "rupture" of the wireless five tigers has to start from the love-hate relationship between Andy Lau and Liang Chaowei.
In the 1980s, Shaw and TVB jointly opened an artist training class, the purpose of which is obvious, to select talents for TVB.
After layers of screening, Among the popular young students, Run Run Shaw selected Andy Lau, Huang Rihua, Miao Qiaowei, Tang Zhenye and Liang Chaowei.
In order to win them popular, Wireless specially created a variety show called "Starlight".
At that time, it was the era when kung fu movies were popular, and these five people performed various acrobatics on the show.
Andy Lau's famous program Chest Crushing Stone is from here.
Just as the so-called personnel to obey the destiny, the company will distribute the capital to everyone, whether it can fire all depends on its own creation.
The five brothers also lived up to expectations, Huang Rihua's Guo Jingguo Daxia, Tang Zhenye's Duan Gongzi, Liang Chaowei's Wei Xiaobao and other characters were portrayed by them into three points and became a generation of classics.
It's just that the explosion is the explosion, and the artists who did TVB at that time were really "thankless".
Their strength is well-known in Hong Kong, they squeeze the artists too much, not to mention the tired work, the treatment is still very poor, and there is not much remuneration for the hard work of filming.
Giving and labor are completely incompatible. So several people who had long been full of resentment quietly decided to do a big thing and escape from the wireless
Andy Lau planned everything for everyone, and did not calculate that Liang Chaowei would give himself a "knife" behind his back.
In 1985, the contract of five people expired, and at this time, two companies, New Art City Pictures and Jiahe, came to dig Up Andy Lau.
Andy Lau felt that this opportunity was rare, but he could not let go of his brothers, so he proposed to the brothers whether to go together.
Miao Qiaowei and Huang Rihua agreed very much, Tang Zhenye said that it was okay there, and Liang Chaowei originally did not want to participate in this matter, but after thinking about it, he agreed, and everyone reached a consensus.
Andy Lau began to negotiate with the companies that came to him, but the other party only wanted the more famous Andy Lau to add another Liang Chaowei, and did not want the other three.
Andy Lau is also insisting on negotiating with them, I don't know who missed the wind, the radio knows that the "five tigers will" rebel.
Looking at the money they have earned for wireless over the years, and then looking at the contract that is about to expire, suddenly do not want to let them go, "coercion and inducement" want them to sign another five-year contract.
Where will Andy Lau still pay attention to them, the attitude is extremely resolute, Andy Lau does not listen to the advice they put the target on others, and constantly gives Huang Rihua and Miao Qiaowei. Tang Zhenye did ideological work, and no one wavered.
So they began to "lure" Liang Chaowei again, perhaps they did not expect it, but they easily analyzed the situation for Liang Chaowei and promised to give him a salary increase, and he nodded his head and agreed.
After being countered, he signed a contract immediately, and several other people who saw this also signed a contract with TVB, and in the end, only Andy Lau was the only one who came to the pit.
In order to make him remember for a long time, Andy Lau was hidden by the company, and the company also signed a contract with him not to shoot dramas for other TV stations for ten years.
Andy Lau was helplessly forced to turn to the music scene, and the five tiger generals who had agreed to advance and retreat together fell apart because of one person's advance.
After Liang Chaowei signed the contract, wireless began to throw resources at him, and the drama that should have been played by Andy Lau was all taken over by Liang Chaowei. Liang Chaowei's "anti-water" caused Andy Lau to be hidden in the snow for 10 years, and he took this opportunity to go with the trend.
Huang Rihua's wife passed away, Liang Chaowei did not come, and when Andy Lau filmed "Brothers' Life and Death Alliance", the "Five Tiger Generals" only lacked Liang Chaowei.
In 2008, Liang Chaowei Liu Jialing got married and invited so many good friends but only No Andy Lau.
The jianghu said that the two broke up, but in fact, Andy Lau once said that he understood Liang Chaowei's approach.
When we talk about the "signing door", in fact, several parties have said that the truth of that year was not complicated.
Andy Lau was just red at that time, how many companies scrambled to grab him, but Liang Chaowei was just starting out, he still had to support his family, he did not say that he would leave the capital.
And Huang Rihua also revealed that he was the first person to renew his contract.
Liang Chaowei did not "betray" his brother as the outside world said, and he was only obedient to the company's arrangements as a hit worker.
It is the people on the outside who always like to think of simple things as complicated, and to say that these two people are not at all intolerable as the outside world rumors.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the two, but the cooperation has become less, and they are still friends in private.
Each of them is the best in the industry, and what kind of fairy crew can afford it.
I remember that Andy Lau once said in the show that when he and Liu Jialing were filming, Liang Chaowei came to visit the class, and as a result, he was playing with himself every day.
What kind of relationship will play about every day? In 2021, the two finally ushered in the opportunity to cooperate, at the emperor film new film conference, Zhuang Wenqiang brought his new film "Goldfinger", and the protagonists are Andy Lau and Liang Chaowei, who have not cooperated for 18 years.
The "long-term reunion" of the two big guys has added a lot of gimmicks to the film, which has made countless fans look forward to it, believing that with their shots, they will be able to create brilliant again.
Liang Chaowei Andy Lau in the film industry you chased me for more than ten years, the two are both friends and opponents, here the grudge, how can we outsiders say clearly?
Let's silently look forward to the release of the work.
