75-year-old veteran artist Yan Guoliang is well-known for his role as the demagogic and snobbish agent "Chen Ji" in the TVB longevity comedy "Hong Kong 81 to Hong Kong 86" series. After that, he filmed dramas such as "True Love" and "All Are Happy".
In 2008, he signed up for a Tai Chi Instructor Class, which required a few hours of lessons per week. Therefore, it is necessary to report to the assistant producer so that he can cooperate when issuing the filming notice.
Everything was going well, but a few months later, a producer asked him if he would leave immediately after the contract expired and not complete the rest of the work! Yan Guoliang was very strange, only to know that the outside world was rumored that he was leaving the nest, and even the TVB artist department received the news and asked him to finish filming before leaving! This can't help but Yan Guoliang is very hot, and he is even more disheartened about TVB's personnel relations! So after the contract expires, he will change careers and teach Tai Chi!
In recent years, due to a rare squamous cancer and need to be hospitalized, he rarely shows up, and it was only recently that he and his wife Huo Jiezhen appeared on the TVB program "Live Spiritual Contact", sharing the experience of his wife seeking "life extension" for him during hospitalization.
Ngan Kwok Leung recalled the difficult moment when he was admitted to the hospital, and he mentioned that he had been in a coma for several days and had experienced breathing difficulties many times. "I've had surgery, and I have a stent in it, and I will cough in pain, and when I cough, I look like a monster, which is very scary. Yan Guoliang's wife, Huo Jiezhen, added the relevant situation, "At that time, the doctor told me that his condition would deteriorate at any time, and he was admitted to the hospital and was in a coma to be rescued. After more than 10 minutes of resuscitation, the doctor said that he would go to the intensive care unit. ”
Faced with the crisis of her husband's life, Huo Jiezhen looked for ways everywhere, hoping to make Yan Guoliang "return to his soul". "I went to Jigong Temple to find a temple blessing and help him pray for blessings. He also took the "Heart Sutra" that he usually copied and burned it, in short, he did this. ”
After putting in all the efforts, Huo Jiezhen revealed that a person in the circle mentioned at that time: "As long as Yan Guoliang survives 15 days, he will be fine, otherwise he can only prepare for the afterlife." ”
Ngan Kwok Leung also shared some clips during his coma, which may have been hallucinations caused by the condition and medication. "First of all, there were only two people in the ICU, that person walked back and forth, I watched him helplessly on the bed, and I heard the other party call and said that he would go to Macau to do an experiment, and then two fat nurses came to catch me, and I desperately resisted to prevent them from catching me. ”
Although he is optimistic about life and death, it does not mean that Yan Guoliang's road to fighting cancer is smooth sailing. Because squamous cell carcinoma pressed his trachea, causing him to have asthma problems, so after the situation stabilized earlier, Yan Guoliang was unable to work, and even once disliked himself as a waste, because he had no financial resources, he could only apply for a disability allowance of more than 2,000 yuan per month, but this income is a drop in the bucket compared to the monthly medical expenses of 39,060 yuan: "Chemotherapy is so expensive, 39,060 for one injection, there is no subsidy." ”
Ngan Kwok Leung's savings were spent on treatment, which put him under considerable financial pressure. He said that if TVB hadn't invited him to appear in Taiqing, his friends would not know his illness at all. He felt that if he took the initiative to tell others, he would scare his friends, so he preferred to carry it himself. This backbone also won praise from netizens: "The victory of true love is a classic of Yan Sheng, come on, bless you!", "It's funny, it's rare to maintain positive energy in times of adversity!", "Gu Tianle helps!"
Chemotherapy made Yan Guoliang's body quite tired, and he described it as like a person who had not exercised for a long time, suddenly did strenuous exercise, and the next day his body had bone pain all over his body. He said that the pain after each chemotherapy treatment was like the after-effects of exercise, but the pain was magnified by five times. In addition to the physical pain, Yan Guoliang said that every time he underwent chemotherapy, his body would be weak, his walking would lose his balance, and his speech would become weak. Although he was tortured by the disease, Yan Guoliang said that it was a big deal that he did not suffer from cancer, and he was more grateful for his careful care by Mrs. Xie.
