Many years later, Stephen Chow wanted to shoot the movie "Shaolin Football" to pay tribute to Bruce Lee, and went to Xie Xian to star, Xie Xian was in his 60s at the time, and he had already become a big name that money couldn't invite, and after he heard that it was a tribute to Bruce Lee, he waved his hand and simply starred with 0 pay, he only appeared in the movie for a few minutes but attracted heated discussions from the audience, and some people even said that the biggest surprise in the whole movie was that Xie Xian could star, of course, these are all later words, Xie Xian's shock to the Hong Kong entertainment industry is far more than that.
In 1967, Xie Xian starred in the movie "The True Colors of Heroes", the movie won 400,000 box office as soon as it was released, this number may not be anything now, but in the 60s, a movie ticket was only a few cents, and 20 years later, director John Woo remade "The True Colors of Heroes" and won tens of millions of box office, Chow Yun-fat and Dillon, who fell into a trough in their lives, also successfully turned over with "The True Colors of Heroes".
In 1980, Xie Xian starred in the TV series "The King of a Thousand Kings" in the role of Luo Sihai, and the fourth brother on the TV series became Xie Xian's name in the circle, and then he successively filmed "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", "King of a Thousand Kings", "Black and White Forest" and many other film and television works.
Later, many newcomers came out, and Xie Xian's acting career gradually came to an end, and then Xie Xian's son Nicholas Tse became popular all over the country, and several romantic histories dominated the headlines all year round.
At that time, female stars only had two ideas, marrying Xie Xian or becoming the wife of the gambling king Stanley Ho, but Xie Xian did not touch the leaves in the flowers, and it was not until 1974 that he found the first love of his life, the first generation of Qiong Yao girl Zhen Zhen.
Later, Xie Xian used a sky-high wedding of 2 million to marry Deborah, the champion of Miss Hong Kong in the 70s, Deborah retired behind the scenes and gave birth to a pair of children, Nicholas Tse's eldest son, Nicholas Tse's youngest daughter Xie Tingting, but Xie Xian was dashing and dashing, and Deborah was strong and decisive, and their marriage ended in failure.
Xie Xian's attitude towards marriage is: If you can't become a lover and stay for a lifetime, at least don't become enemies who love and kill each other. So in both marriages, Xie Xian let go calmly, and finally gained understanding and respect, and his two wives also became very good friends with Xie Xian, and later Xie Xian also had many women around him, but he had no intention of getting married.
In 2005, 69-year-old Xie Xian fell in love with Coco, a Shanghai girl who was just in her early 20s, and this relationship with a difference of almost 50 years old once again detonated the gossip headlines, everyone said that Xie Xian's old cow ate tender grass Coco had another purpose, but they lived together for more than 10 years, Xie Xian was still full of spring breeze in his 80s, which shows that Xie Xian's charm is still undiminished.
However, this relationship ended in a breakup, and after years of companionship, Coco got Xie Xian's 20 million breakup fee, and now Xie Xian is 85 years old, and he has two children and grandchildren, but he lives alone in a luxury apartment and has become an empty nester.
At that time, only Xie Xian and Qin Xianglin were still alive in the Silver Snake Rat team, and the days when Xie Xian used to call for wind and rain have gradually become a thing of the past, and now he occasionally goes to Nicholas Tse's show to eat, and he will spend weekends at home with his grandson. But Xie Xian was happy with it.
Decades of ups and downs have not changed his fiery temper, and he once slapped Zeng Jiang in front of the media, but the other party did not dare to fight back.
But later the impermanence of the world changed his attitude towards life, after beating people, Xie Xian personally visited Zeng Jiang when he was sick and hospitalized, he bowed and apologized, and the two old stubborns finally shook hands and made peace.
Compared with his peers around him, Xie Xian never wants to show his haggardness, he always wears sunglasses and says that he still has the opportunity to make more movies, and as long as I am still here, I will always move forward, and this may be the reason why Xie Xian has been popular in the entertainment industry for more than 60 years.
