An actor who can act may not have a scene to film, and a martial arts actor who can fight may not be able to become a popular actor with a very box office appeal like Wu Jing. Fan Shaohuang's father, Fan Meisheng, is a very capable martial arts actor, and he and Bruce Lee were also good friends back then. Who would have thought that Bruce Lee's popularity is very high both at home and abroad, but Fan Meisheng, who is also a martial arts actor as his good friend, can only play small supporting roles and play various villains in various martial arts films. This kind of embarrassing thing that happened to martial arts actors also happened to Qiu Jianguo, the king of southern boxing.
Domestic audiences like to watch martial arts movies, often because the leading actors in those martial arts films released are martial arts stars with a very high reputation in China. Whether it is Jackie Chan or Donnie Yen and Zhao Wenzhuo, these martial arts stars themselves are very box office appealing, and their martial arts skills are quite good, so it is inevitable that they can become more and more popular in China.
And Qiu Jianguo, the leader of the Southern Boxing Championship, had a good chance at first. This martial arts actor is also known as the "South China Tiger", and it is also because of his excellent strength that he cooperated with Jet Li, who was already popular at that time. In Jet Li's "Once Upon a Time", he plays the leader of the Shahe Gang.
However, this martial arts actor is a typical actor who can't resist dramas. There is a director who is very optimistic about him, and specially created a film and television work "Southern Boxing King" for him. However, this film and television work has not even recovered its cost after its release, and Qiu Jianguo has never played the leading role since then.
, a former martial arts champion, can only play villains in those well-known martial arts film and television works, and the positive roles are often played by those well-known martial arts stars in the entertainment industry. In general, if Qiu Jianguo does not pursue popularity, he still has no worries about having no scenes to shoot in the entertainment industry.
Later, he also received the film and television drama "New Shaolin Temple". However, Qiu Jianguo passed away unexpectedly while filming this drama, and he was only 37 years old that year. Because he had suffered from nasopharyngeal cancer in his early years, he chose to go to sleep in the car when he was resting at work. However, while sleeping, he suddenly suffered a stroke. By the time he was found and taken to the hospital, it was too late. And the recurrence of cancer eventually killed him. It stands to reason that the career of a 37-year-old actor should have been long. , a martial arts champion with good strength and good opportunities, passed away early.
