Er Dongsheng's new film "The End of the Sea is the Grassland" has recently been officially launched in Inner Mongolia, Er Dongsheng recorded the bits and pieces of the shooting in the form of vlog, after two years of hard shooting to overcome the harsh climatic conditions, the unpredictable natural environment on the grassland, and the impact of the epidemic, strictly control the investment budget, and finally completed the work with quality and quantity.
In this work, Er Dongsheng used the newcomer Ding Chengxin in "Actors Please Take Place", and the actor Cao Jun, who he admired very much, and gave great encouragement and support to the newcomers during the filming process.
In fact, Er Dongsheng is also a director who is very sorry for talent, and it is precisely because of his film and television works that there are so many wonderful stories, of course, compared with the wonderful works of his works, his life story is still not inferior.
In 1975, the 18-year-old Er Dongsheng graduated from high school, his brothers Jiang Dawei and Qin Pei were already the main actors of Shaw films, and his parents originally hoped that Er Dongsheng could study abroad, but he resolutely chose to stay in Hong Kong and enter the film and television circle with his two brothers.
Er Dongsheng's family is very wealthy, the entire family has probably produced more than 20 film and television industry related practitioners, under the influence of the ears, Er Dongsheng has long been full of expectations for this industry.
In fact, there is another reason for this, that is, Er Dongsheng's two unsuspecting girlfriends Yu An'an, and the two young people who are just young and just right stand together and look very compatible.
18-year-old Er Dongsheng has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his handsome appearance is very eye-catching, but after entering Shaw's, he also had to start from the bottom, did drama work, played miscellaneous, and learned a lot of things in the whole process.
In 1977, Er Dongsheng waited for his first role "Sir PoisonEd Tiger Gun" in a small supporting role, although the role is not much, but Er Dongsheng acted very seriously, the effect of completion is very good, but also successfully attracted the attention and appreciation of director Chu Yuan, in the same year Chu Yuan for the movie "White Jade Tiger" casting, of which the villain role "Tang Yu" could not find a candidate, so Chu Yuan thought of Er Dongsheng.
Er Dongsheng did not dislike the role of this bad guy, seriously devoted to the shooting process, Chu Yuan while shooting while teaching, Er Dongsheng learned a lot of things in this movie, and the appearance of his role, unintentional dark and cunning "Tang Yu" also left a deep impression, this success made Er Dongsheng's deductive career development have a new acceleration.
At the end of 1977, Er Dongsheng and his girlfriend Yu An'an filmed the TV series "The Sword of the Three Young Masters", which made Er Dongsheng famous overnight, and then Er Dongsheng began to develop in martial arts dramas, successively starring in "Yitian Slaughtering Dragon" and "Full Moon Curved Knife" to become a well-known martial arts student in the late 1970s.
In today's words, it is the top-notch ancient style fairy boy, a dancing boy, invincible in the world, and suddenly became the darling of all investors, screenwriters and directors.
The young and crazy Er Dongsheng instantly became famous and became a little fluttery, he began not to want to act according to other people's ideas, he wanted to direct a work himself.
As soon as this idea came out, it was immediately supported by two brothers, and in 1981, Er Dongsheng's screenwriter Virgo spoof nonsense movie "Owl" was released, and Er Dongsheng, who was originally full of ambition, suffered a box office fiasco and returned to Shaw in ashes.
But the disaster is not alone, the career has been hit hard, the love is not smooth, Er Dongsheng and Yu An'an are almost famous at the same time, the two careers are getting better and better, but the time they can get along is getting less and less, and the two people who are gradually drifting apart have finally come to an end.
Yu An'an felt that Er Dongsheng was not yet mature, so he turned around and married Zhou Runfa, who was mature enough, and as a result, the marriage lasted only nine months, and for a period of time it became the talk of people after tea and dinner.
In 1985, Er Dongsheng ushered in a career turning point, Shaw Group stopped production, colleagues were transferred to TVB, but Er Dongsheng had other ideas, and after working for several years, he gradually realized that actors were ultimately subject to people, and he wanted to play what he liked, so he had the idea of changing to directing.
In 1986, Er Dongsheng filmed the directorial debut "The Legend of the Epileptic Guy", which gathered Qin Pei, Zhou Runfa, liang Chaowei, and the film was mentally ill as the main theme.
In order to complete this work, Er Dongsheng personally visited many welfare homes, social workers, to understand the real state of mental patients, the film was shot successfully, but the road to the line was very difficult.
Because the content theme was too sharp, the process of reviewing the film was listed as a banned film, and later the relationship between the predecessors of the Shaw Group was used to make the film smoothly released.
Kung Fu pays off, "The Legend of the Crazy Guy" has won tens of millions of box office, and was also nominated for best film by the Academy Awards, and Er Dongsheng has completed a gorgeous turn from a popular student to a new director.
This year Er Dongsheng was just 30 years old, such a high-profile start made him gain strong confidence, so this year he launched a second work, the police film "People's Hero", this film is also a big coffee gathering, starring Dillon, Liang Chaowei, Qin Pei, but did not follow the documentary style of shooting methods, but paid attention to the scene, play, storyline is not so ups and downs.
It was only this work that made Liang Chaowei win the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in one fell swoop, but the film box office was only 3 million.
The ups and downs of the directorial career made Er Dongsheng doubt his career development, so he returned to the identity of an actor.
For five years, Er Dongsheng worked as an actor while learning from every director he cooperated with, and he also tried to fail during the period, but in the end he did not give up his ideal of being a director.
Until 1993, Er Dongsheng did not hesitate to shoot "New Love" at his own expense, and no investors in the early stage of the film were optimistic about this unpopular theme, but after its release, it won 30 million box office in one fell swoop, and swept the 13th Hong Kong Film Awards, winning six awards for film queen, best film, best director, best screenwriter, best supporting actor and best supporting actress, becoming the biggest winner in the Hong Kong film industry that year.
After this, Er Dongsheng's directorial career opened the high-speed rail era, "Chariot of Fire", "Pornographic Men and Women" ushered in a new era of Hong Kong commercial films, "Can't Forget" helped Cecilia Cheung successfully transform by telling the story of ordinary minibus female drivers, and then later "Precocious", "Disciple", "Shinjuku Incident", "I am a passerby", etc., Er Dongsheng wished to let his name write a strong mark in the history of Hong Kong film development.
Today's well-known Erdao has had several ups and downs in his career, and his emotional history is also magnificent.
After Er Dongsheng broke up with Yu An'an of Qingmei Bamboo Horse, he turned to a director, and just before and after he filmed "The Legend of the Crazy Guy", he had an underground relationship with a well-known investor for five years, this mysterious woman is not an insider, so few people know her.
Just when he was confused about his future as a director and returned to acting, he met Maggie Cheung, who had just debuted, and Maggie Cheung later recalled that she and Er Dongsheng were matched by Chen Ziqiang and Jacky Cheung.
Er Dongsheng, who is er knowledgeable and talented, makes Maggie Cheung's little girl's adoration burst, Er Dongsheng is also very affectionate to her, the two are even troublesome in their underground love, directly and publicly in front of the media to fall in love, even the Hong Kong media, which has always been poisonous, enviously call them the golden boy and jade girl.
In 1988, after Maggie Cheung was nominated for an Academy Award for "Carmen in Mong Kok", the following year Er Dongsheng eagerly filmed the movie "Goodbye Wang Lao Wu", which starred Maggie Cheung and Zhong Zhentao.
Originally, Maggie Cheung was very much looking forward to this cooperation, but she did not expect that as soon as she entered the set, Er Dongsheng completely changed her personality, very fierce and serious, scolding Maggie Cheung was merciless, and this experience made Maggie Cheung, who was a girl with a burst of heart, begin to re-examine Er Dongsheng.
But unfortunately, this film hit the street again, but Maggie Cheung won the Golden Horse Award with "People in New York" released at the same time, and then won the Academy Award for film with "The Man Who Doesn't Take Off His Socks".
But it is ironic that "Goodbye Wang Laowu" and "The Man Who Doesn't Take Off His Socks" are two works of the same theme and the same actor, one with a dismal box office and one after the film, such a gap is not a small blow to Er Dongsheng.
At the same time, the longer the two spent together, the greater the differences, in the words of Maggie Cheung, "I hope he will sweetly talk to me, send flowers, pipe to take over; he hopes that after the end of work, I will take slippers and pour tea... As a result, no one can do it. "
This relationship is unforgettable for Er Dongsheng and Maggie Cheung, but in the end it is still a no-brainer. However, at the age of 38, Er Dongsheng, like Yu An'an, played a flash marriage flash, and the other party was a Taiwanese woman Wang Ruixia.
This marriage did not last long, but the divorce lawsuit was fought for half a year, so that Er Dongsheng was prejudiced against the marriage vows, saying that it was not realistic to live a lifetime.
After that, Er Dong lifted off the window for a long time, until the age of 42, met the 29-year-old kindergarten teacher Luo Xiaowen, the two people talked about love for nine years, and then they took a marriage certificate hastily, and from beginning to end, Er Dongsheng never promised a lifetime.
At the same time, Er Dongsheng explained to the media that because his wife's original family was not happy, the two did not like children, so they agreed to do Dink.
At this time, Er Dongsheng was more than fifty years old, just when the public thought that he was finally going to stabilize, but at the age of 58, because of "I am a passerby", he was rumored to have a scandal with the heroine Wang Ting, and then this seemingly quiet marriage also came to an abrupt end.
Er Dongsheng did not make any explanation for this, but it was not long before he married a new family, and Er Dongsheng, who said that he did not like children, was old, and his little girlfriend gave birth to a daughter who looked very similar to him.
However, Erdao has always refused to disclose his girlfriend information, saying only that the two are very satisfied with their current lives and have no intention of getting married.
Er Dongsheng, who is now in his sixties, still has a good style on the stage of "Actors Please Take Place", and it seems that age does not stop men's amorousness.
