"Asian film queen" Li Jing's entertainment industry career can be said to be smooth, less than 17 years old as the heroine of "Fish Beauty", with this film, she won the Asian film queen as a minor.
Li Jing was praised by Run Run Shaw and starred in many films in a row, and her career went all the way.
At the age of 21, Li Jing and Lei Jue, who was 30 years older than herself, announced their relationship, but the other party died of a heart attack shortly after. Subsequently, Li Jing's mother also died and left, and Li Jing, who was under the double blow, announced her retirement from the entertainment industry. After retiring from the circle, she used her savings to invest in stocks, but failed many times.
Li Jing actually relied on the money she earned in the entertainment industry in the first half of her life alone to enjoy her old age in a mansion, but Li Jing was desperate to become addicted to gambling, lost all her family wealth, and finally sold the mansion to rent a house.
Although she was already so poor, Li Jing still failed to quit her bad habits, and was finally exposed by the landlord to owe rent for 3 years and got into a lawsuit.
At this time, there are still many friends in the circle who are willing to help her, Run Run Shaw has helped her, and paid a year's rent to Huaqiang for her.......
At this time, Li Jing's physical condition was also not good, she had a heart attack and had breast cancer surgery. But Li Jing still gambled correctly, she had no children in her life, and eventually her friends gradually stayed away from her as a gambler.
On February 22, 2018, 69-year-old Li Jing died at home, but no one knew about it. Finally, a few days later, the body decomposed, and the neighbors only called the police to find it when they smelled the stench.
2. Cao Dahua
Cao Dahua used to be a bigwig-level figure in the entertainment industry, and he started as a low-level actor. In 1949, he and his sister Cao Qiwen founded the "Youqiao Film Company" and became the boss.
After that, Cao Dahua's career began to flourish, he sat on several studios, movie theaters, and the largest film production base at that time, "Huada Studio", was also Cao Dahua's enterprise, and he made a lot of money with these.
Who would have thought that this big man with skills and courage would end up planting a "bet" word. In the 60s, Cao Dahua became involved in gambling and lost 300 million in the casino of "gambling king" Stanley Ho. The 300 million in those days is worth 150 billion now.
Cao Dahua successively lost many industries such as his film company and studio, and finally even lost his wife's family property.
In order to make a living, Cao Dahua, who turned from a billionaire to a poor ghost gambler, can only return to his old job - acting. In his later years, Cao Dahua lived alone in an apartment of tens of square meters in Mong Kok, and died of stomach bleeding in 2006.
3. Wu Zhixiong
Hong Kong actor Big B brother Wu Zhixiong used to be a fool on the road, but fortunately he regretted it later, and the golden basin washed his hands and entered the entertainment industry.
Then Wu Zhixiong became popular with "Prison Storm" and "Confused Boy", and after becoming famous, the money came quickly, and Wu Zhixiong began to walk to the gambling table.
Wu Zhixiong confessed to reporters many years later that he did make a lot of money through gambling, and then he became addicted to gambling, from winning more and losing less to losing more and winning less, and finally owed a huge amount of gambling debt, as many as more than 10 million.
Owing such a large amount, Wu Zhixiong had to ask friends in the circle to borrow money everywhere, but everyone heard that he was in debt because of gambling, and they were unwilling to lend him money. In the end, it was Gu Tianle who reached out and filled the hole in him.
Fortunately, after that, Big Brother B was no longer addicted to gambling, acted seriously, made money and returned Gu Tianle's favor.
If it had not been for Koo Tianle's generosity at that time, Wu Zhixiong, who owed tens of millions of dollars, might have taken a more astray path.
4. He Jiaju
Ho Jiaju, known as the first of the "Four Evil Men in the Hong Kong Film Industry", established a company by himself when he was young and had a small family property. As a result, he became addicted to gambling due to his friends' deception, lost 20 million in three days, and also lost his own company.
Because of gambling, He Jiaju's parents broke off relations with him. He Jiaju entered the entertainment industry by mistake and became popular with the villains of films such as "The True Color of Heroes" and "Prison Storm".
But career success did not stop his addiction to gambling, and He Jiaju always lost his savings in the shortest time, and he never married and had children in his life.
Having appeared in more than 400 films in his life, He Jiaju's acting career should actually be able to save a lot of savings. But in 2015, after He Jiaju died of a serious illness, it was discovered that he had only a few hundred yuan in his passbook.
Presumably, most of the savings went to the casino. Because of gambling in his life, He Jiaju finally ended up with no one to send him to death, and the evening scene was a bleak result.
5. Pig Brother Liang (Xie Xingda)
Pig Ge Liang, formerly known as Xie Xingda, is a well-known host in Taiwan and was once known as one of the "Three Treasures of Taiwan". He came from a poor background, but through various chances, he became the head host of the Sapphire Ballroom at that time.
Unexpectedly, after he became famous, he had money and floated, cheated and abandoned his wife and daughter, and his daughter broke up. He was also addicted to gambling, owed 200 million gambling debts, and was hunted down.
Pig Brother Liang temporarily retired from the entertainment industry to avoid debts, but was found by the debt collector with a gun, and in the process of struggle, the muzzle went wild, and Pig Brother Liang was shot twice.
It was not until 2009 that Pig Brother Liang made a comeback, and he filmed day and night, partly to pay off debts, and partly to leave more money for his third wife and son.
In 2017, Pig Geliang died of cancer at the age of 70. If it weren't for the gambling, his life might have been more brilliant.
There are not a few people in the entertainment industry who are stained with "gambling". Xie Xian became addicted to gambling, divorced the couple, and finally sent his son Nicholas Tse into the entertainment industry to make money for himself to pay off debts.
Wu Mengda also once became famous, did not resist the temptation of gambling, indulged in this debt and owed a debt, and finally Zhou Yunfa's words made him figure it out, and quitting gambling in time did not cause a more difficult mistake.
In 2014, there was a report that 11 stars were found to be involved in gambling in the entertainment industry, which is scary enough.
As the saying goes, ten gambles and nine losses, even if the star makes money quickly, but it is not enough to lose if it is stained with gambling. Gambling king Stanley Ho once said: "No matter how rich I am, I can't gamble in a casino, I'm not so stupid to gamble one"! ”
Rich and idle celebrities are stained with "gambling", and they will be stripped of their skins, not to mention us ordinary people? Owing tens of millions of debts overnight, being chased and killed with guns, and destroying homes, these shocking "gambling" incidents deserve the public's wake-up.
