On March 11, 38-year-old actor Lin Zishan was interviewed by Hong Kong media, talking about his experience since entering the industry, and when he mentioned Tian Qiwen, who was also a teacher and friend, he was also excited and wept.
Lin Zishan, who is not outstanding in appearance, has quite excellent acting skills. In recent years, he has been playing in TVB continuously and has developed very well. However, when he first entered the entertainment industry, he actually hit it by mistake.
Lin Zishan recalled that after graduating from high school, he enrolled in the navigation course of the Seamen's Training Center, which was said to be useful for applying for firefighters. At that time, the movie "The King of Comedy" recruited actors, and the students thought he was very funny and humorous, so they quietly helped him sign up.
Although he did not have much interest in the entertainment industry, Lin Zishan thought that Zhou Xingchi would be one of the judges, so he took a car to see the big stars at the examination place. When he went to the scene and saw the long queue outside the venue, he once wanted to give up, but fortunately he was encouraged by the taxi driver to stay.
After waiting for most of the day, it was finally his turn to perform. Completely without psychological burden, his performance was quite open, and he also imitated the performance of the old drama bone Qin Pei, so that the judges Zhou Xingchi, Li Lizhi and others watched with relish, and forgot to shout to stop. In this way, he was successfully selected for the crew and officially began his career as an actor for more than 20 years.
The outside world has always pointed out that Lin Zishan had signed a contract with Zhou Xingchi's film and television company for 5 years, and even he himself thought that he was an artist under the Xingye company.
After that, Lin Zishan said while crying, when I was able to appear in Stephen Chow's movie, thanks to Xingye, Tian Qiwen also made a lot of efforts in the back, he was my benefactor, he helped me a lot, but he lied to me and hid me for 20 years.
It turned out that tian Qiwen told Lin Zishan that Xingye wanted to sign him into the company.
Lin Zishan did not think much about it, after all, he had the opportunity to participate in Xingye's movies for several consecutive years, and he could get a salary of 8,000 yuan every month, and it rose to 10,000 20,000 in the second year, and continued to rise in the third year. In those days, the salary wasn't low.
Years later, Lin Zishan found out that it was actually Tian Qiwen who signed him in his personal name, and he was not an artist of Chow Sing Chi's company from beginning to end. And the salary he receives every month is paid to him by Tian Qiwen, and many times he loses money.
Lin Zishan confessed, I don't know why he helped me like this, maybe it is fate, and now I am also grateful to him, he helped me for more than twenty years, and did not tell me that he is a real hero.
In addition to silently paying his salary to himself, Lin Zishan also broke the news that once I did not have enough money to buy a computer, Tian Qiwen did not say a word, he swiped his card to help me pay 17,000 yuan, and then let me slowly pay back.
In recent years, Lin Zishan has joined TVB, and Tian Qiwen has been busy working in the mainland, but the two still maintain contact. Every day, Tian Qiwen would send him a picture of the elders and treat him like a son.
