Hong Kong's "Four Heavenly Kings", two were abandoned and one retired, and the future depends on Jacky Cheung

Hong Kong's "Four Heavenly Kings" represent the pinnacle of the phenomenon of China's star-chasing clans. In terms of music, the four of them almost monopolized the Hong Kong Most Popular Male Singer Award in the 90s, held more than 1,600 solo concerts, and sold more than 100 million copies of the record. In terms of movies, the four of them have won a total of five Golden Horse Award actors, as well as four Academy Award actors. At that time, they were really beautiful.

Some people say that Hong Kong's "Four Heavenly Kings" are eternal legends and myths. This sentence is really not an exaggeration in the nineties of the last century, because at that time, there was no star actor in China whose status and popularity could be compared with them, but it is now a time has passed.

After entering the new century, with the decline of the Hong Kong music scene and Hong Kong films, the influence of the "Four Heavenly Kings" has not been as good as before. Since then, the four members of the "Four Heavenly Kings" Jacky Cheung, Liming, Andy Lau and Aaron Kwok have also started their own development paths, some of them focus on movies, some focus on singing, some sing and act in movies, and some have gradually moved away from the entertainment industry.

According to the box office and word-of-mouth performance of Hong Kong films in China in recent years, as well as the influence of the Hong Kong Film Awards, Hong Kong films are not only in decline, some people say that "Hong Kong films are dead" today.

Since "Hong Kong movies are dead", the influence and appeal of Hong Kong actors are naturally not as good as before, including the members of the "Four Heavenly Kings".

In recent years, Andy Lau and Aaron Kwok in the "Four Heavenly Kings" have been focusing on Hong Kong films, and they are each able to release multiple Hong Kong films starring themselves every year. However, the box office performance of these Hong Kong films in China is far from satisfactory.

Like Aaron Kwok, three Hong Kong films were launched in succession last year, but among these three Hong Kong films, two failed to break 100 million at the box office. The only movie "Anti-Drug 3" with a box office of more than 100 million, but the final result was far less than expected, and it has also become a bad movie recognized by most audiences.

And Andy Lau, a "Mr. Red Carpet" at the beginning of this year directly pulled him off the "altar". has experienced two releases, but the final box office failed to reach 100 million yuan, and it even became the lowest-grossing film during this year's Spring Festival.

As for Dawn, it is now in a state of semi-retreat. He only occasionally makes a cameo appearance in a certain movie, or occasionally participates in a variety show. As we enter the new millennium, Dawn may have been focusing on doing business.

In the "Four Heavenly Kings", two were almost abandoned by the audience, and one was also in a state of semi-retirement. It seems that Jacky Cheung alone may be able to earn back some face for Hong Kong movies.

As a "god of songs", Jacky Cheung actually focuses on singing. However, as an actor, Jacky Cheung's acting skills are completely at the level of an actor.

It feels like I haven't seen a movie starring Jacky Cheung for a long time, and I always feel like "Equator" nearly ten years ago is like his last film. Although there has been no film work for many years, although he still focuses on singing, the domestic audience is actually looking forward to his next film work. Just like the sequel to "Equator", we have been looking forward to it for nearly a decade.

Now, although we have not waited for the sequel to "Equator", we have finally ushered in another movie "Customs Front" starring Jacky Cheung.

"Customs Front" is a Hong Kong action film directed by Yau Litao and co-starring Jacky Cheung and Nicholas Tse. In order to defend the country, Zhang Yunnan sent Zhou Zhengli and Interpol to overseas to investigate the story of the arms black market.

Jacky Cheung and Nicholas Tse jointly starred in an action-themed Hong Kong film, which will naturally arouse the collective expectations of the audience. Many people have said that they can finally see Jacky Cheung's movie again, and they are still cooperating with Nicholas Tse, and I believe that this film will definitely be a big hit after its release.

At present, this "Customs Front", co-starring Jacky Cheung and Nicholas Tse, has been confirmed to be released in the summer on July 5 this year.
