On the evening of the 15th, the 37th Academy Awards Ceremony ended successfully, Gu Tianle and Mao Shunjun were crowned emperors, and the highest honorary award, the Lifetime Achievement Award, was awarded to the famous director Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan, formerly known as Zhang Baojian, was born in Guangzhou in 1934, because of the influence of his father as an actor, he joined the film circle after graduating from university, initially worked as a screenwriter, and began to become a director at the age of 23, and directed more than 70 Cantonese films such as "Blood Stained Acacia Valley" and "Poor Parents' Hearts in the World".

At the end of the 1960s, Chu Yuan switched to Shaw Pictures and began to shoot Chinese films, directing the romantic film "Ainu" starring He Lili, Betty and Yue Hua, and gained a foothold in Shaw Pictures.

In 1973, Chu Yuan's Cantonese comedy "Seventy-Two Tenants" was released and won a high box office of 5.62 million, successfully beating the Bruce Lee film "Dragon Fight tiger fight" (3.31 million box office) released in the same year, and also breaking the highest box office record since the opening of Hong Kong, thus gaining the weight of Shaw bosses Shaw And Fong Yihua.

In 1976, Chu Yuan put the ancient dragon martial arts novel "Meteor. butterfly. "Sword" was brought to the screen, which was the first time that Gu Long's novel was made into a movie, and the film was a big hit at the Hong Kong and Taiwan box office after its release.

Chu Yuan immediately hit the iron while it was hot and put Gu Long's other masterpiece" "Tianya. Moon. "Knife" was made into a movie, and it also achieved high box office.

In the following 5 years, Chu Yuan made a total of 18 Gulong movies (including "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword", "Hero Without Tears", "Absolute Double Pride", "White Jade Tiger", "Xiao Shiyilang", "Full Moon Curved Knife", "Three Young Masters' Sword", "Chu Liuxiang" series, "Lu Xiaofeng" series, etc.), becoming the director who has made the most Gulong movies so far.

These 18 Gulong movies sold well at the box office, thus winning stars such as Er Dongsheng, Jing Li, and Yu An'an, and also making the acting careers of stars such as Luo Lie, Dillon, Liu Yong, Yue Hua, and Gu Feng reach a new peak.

In particular, Er Dongsheng regarded Chu Yuan as a Bole teacher, in 1977, he had just stepped into the film world and was discovered by Chu Yuan, who used a "White Jade Tiger" and a "Sword of the Three Young Masters" to make him popular, with the popularity of martial arts films such as "Full Moon Curved Knife", "Demon Temple Dragon Slaying", "Wingless Bat" and so on, Er Dongsheng became a Shaw first-line student who was comparable to his second brother Jiang David.

Friends who have seen Chu Yuan's movies should know that he likes to use voiceovers at the beginning of the movie, or arrange for the people in the play to open with a storyteller introduction, and then enter the main topic of the film... This way of opening, which only smells and does not see people, undoubtedly makes the film full of mystery and arouses the curiosity of the audience.

In 1984, chu yuan, who was just 50 years old, left Shaw after filming "The New Biography of Ainu" (there is also a saying that Chu Yuan's last film directed by Shaw was "For the Gun Old Bean").

Chu Yuan, who left Shaw's family, filmed several scenes for Wei He and other film companies (the most famous of which was "The Diary of a Big Husband" starring Zhou Runfa and "Thief A Xing" starring Zhou Xingchi), and then switched to TVB as an actor, playing the role of dragon set in more than 20 TVB dramas, and faded out of the show business circle due to health problems after filming "In Search of Qin" in 2001.
