Challenging the adversity of life and striving for progress, Sammo Hung has won the love and respect of the majority of people in Hong Kong with his profound artistic attainments and noble professional ethics! As a grandmaster-level martial arts master, his posture and superb acting skills have created many masterpieces for the Hong Kong film industry.
To this day, people can still list those classic lines that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Sammo Hung has made remarkable achievements in the Hong Kong film industry, starring in many humorous and action-filled films, all of which demonstrate his superb acting skills and outstanding artistic talent.
Every film is superb, and every character is a classic. Although Sammo Hung is now in his old age, the joy and emotion he has brought to the audience has never diminished.
Although Sammo Hung had a bumpy life experience, he never bowed to fate. Born in a film and television family, he has taken on the responsibility of inheriting family learning since he was a child. Grandmother Qian Ruying is the first famous chivalrous woman, and she is also the prototype of the mysterious woman who fought with Stephen Chow in the elevator room in Stephen Chow's gambling saint.
His grandfather, Hong Ji, was an outstanding director who founded the South China Film Studio and can be called the founder of Hong Kong films. Therefore, Sammo Hung, who has been immersed in the art of opera since childhood, has never had the idea of giving up this road full of honor.
It is thanks to his illustrious family background and unwavering pursuit of a career in theatre that Sammo Hung has been able to expand his frontier in the Hong Kong film industry and achieve today's remarkable achievements.
As the leader of the "Hong Family Class", he has personally cultivated many internationally renowned actors, such as Lin Zhengying, Yuan Biao, Yuan Hua, etc. Later, he directed many popular masterpieces, creating new and unique film genres such as "zombie films" and "police films".
Everything goes back to the time when Sammo Hung and Lin Zhengying met. At that time, Sammo Hung had become the most important disciple of Master Zhanyuan, with strong martial arts and no one could match.
After the death of the master, the remaining juniors without exception respected Sammo Hung as a leader, and Jackie Chan, Yuan Hua, Yuan Biao and others grew up under his careful guidance.
Lin Zhengying's success in the Hong Kong film industry, Sammo Hung undoubtedly played a pivotal role. This film and television giant wisely took Lin Zhengying under his door and generously gave him endless resource support.
As a result, 1985's "Mr. Zombie" made Lin Zhengying popular all over the country overnight, and ignited the trend of "zombie films".
Looking back at Sammo Hung from a prominent family background, it is not for nothing that he is known as the legendary son of show business. Her maternal grandmother, Qian Ruying, is known as the martial arts master of "China's first chivalrous woman", and is also the prototype of the mysterious woman in Stephen Chow's movie "The Saint of Gambling".
The scene when she fought with Stephen Chow in the elevator room is still fresh in people's memories.
As for his paternal grandfather Hong Ji, he is the originator of Hong Kong cinema and founded the world-renowned South China Film Studio. Therefore, Sammo Hung's love and dedication to the film and television industry can be said to be innate, which also indicates his unrivaled status in the future Hong Kong film industry.
Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan's brotherhood also stems from that deep master-apprentice friendship. As a mentor, Sammo Hung personally led the young and vigorous Jackie Chan into the industry, teaching him the essence of martial arts and acting.
To this day, Jackie Chan still humbly and politely calls Sammo Hung "big brother".
It is under Sammo Hung's careful guidance that Jackie Chan can emerge step by step in the film industry and break out of his own world. The friendship between their master and apprentice is as deep as that of father and son, and they still maintain a humble and welcoming attitude.
The origin of the story can be traced back to that not quiet night. Lim gets into an argument after getting drunk at a bar, and the verbal altercation escalates into a physical altercation. At that time, Lin Zhengying was already in a state of drunkenness, and soon fell into a disadvantage.
Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more tense, Lin Zhengying called Sammo Hung's phone as soon as he was at the moment of life and death, and his cry for help was full of panic.
After learning of this, Sammo Hung was furious and trembled all over. He immediately gathered relatives and friends and vowed to seek justice for Lin Zhengying. "If you want to fight, I'll accompany you!" This heroic declaration fully demonstrates Sammo Hung cherishing and defending friendship.
The group quickly rushed to the scene of the incident, all with solemn faces, obviously ready for a decisive battle.
However, to everyone's surprise, the conflict in front of them is inextricably linked to Chan Wai-man, the legendary leader of the famous Hong Kong gang organization 14K! Chen Huimin may not be comparable to Sammo Hung in the film industry, but his influence in the rivers and lakes is unparalleled.
"There is Bruce Lee in boxing, and Chen Huimin in leg skills", this long-standing saying is not groundless. Chen Huimin has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and can be called a generation of martial arts masters.
Although he once humbly said that he was nowhere near as unrivaled as Bruce Lee, in 1983, he defeated Japanese boxing champion Tsuyoshi Morizaki in just 35 seconds, which undoubtedly demonstrated Chen's martial arts mastery, which is really rare.
In the face of such a powerful opponent, Sammo Hung remained calm, decided to follow the rules of the rivers and lakes, took the initiative to challenge Chen Huimin, and vowed to win the battle. As a veteran in the film industry, Sammo Hung's martial arts are naturally unfathomable, but he is still slightly deficient compared with Chen Huimin.
In this fierce life-and-death battle, Sammo Hung finally failed to resist Chan's offensive, not only losing the game, but also leaving a remarkable scar on his face.
At that time, Sammo Hung was brave and fearless, like a fierce tiger in battle to show his majesty. However, many spectators in attendance all lamented the destruction of his handsome face. That night, Sammo Hung was destined to bear this scar for the rest of his life, and every time he saw it, he would trigger endless emotion.
Who would have thought that he would have to pay such a heavy price for a friend? However, as the old saying goes, "life and death are fate, wealth is in heaven", all this seems to have long been destined to become an episode and a turning point in life.
In fact, before all this happened, Sammo Hung had been in the Hong Kong entertainment industry for many years, and gradually achieved today's brilliant achievements with his own efforts.
As a teenager, Sammo Hung studied martial arts and Peking Opera with his grandmother Qian Yiying and Master Zhan Yuan. After the departure of his elder brother Wu Mingcai, he naturally became a leading figure in Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao, Yuan Hua and others, often teaching skills on behalf of his master.
It was under Sammo Hung's careful guidance that Jackie Chan was able to embark on the road of acting.
Recalling the young and vigorous Jackie Chan, he is always full of gratitude for Sammo Hung's teachings back then. "If it weren't for the careful teaching of my eldest brother, I am afraid that I would have fallen on this road long ago.
Whenever we talk about Sammo Hung as a film giant, Jackie Chan always fondly recalls the good times spent with Sammo Hung with affection, and even some small action details are still deeply imprinted in his heart, and every time he sees Sammo Hung, he will involuntarily retell it.
After Bruce Lee's death, many actors who have worked with him have chosen to follow in Sammo Hung footsteps. Therefore, he single-handedly led these capable talents and successfully created a well-known "Hong Family Class".
Lin Zhengying, Wu Ma, Yuan Biao, Yuan Hua, Yuan Kui, Di Wei, Qian Jiale and Zou Zhaolong, etc., they all made remarkable achievements in the later film industry, and all of them were outstanding disciples from the Hong family class.
With the passage of time, Sammo Hung's film career has also ushered in a new chapter. Long before Jackie Chan, he had joined Golden Harvest Film and Television Company and served as a film director.
Then, he joined forces with Mai Jia and Liu Jialiang's nephew Liu Jiarong to co-found Garbo Pictures, and eventually merged with Golden Harvest to form Baohe Pictures.
In the 11 years from 1977 to 1988, Sammo Hung participated in the production of films that occupied a place in Hong Kong's top 10 grossing films of the year, both as a director and as a star, and this proud achievement even surpassed the glory of "Double Monday".
The "Loser" and "Miscellaneous Boy" directed by him are known as classics of Wing Chun martial arts films.
In 1985, the year that he was revered as the "Year of Sammo Hung", he served as the executive producer and filmed two shocking works, "Mr. Zombie" and "Royal Sister", which pushed Lin Zhengying and Michelle Yeoh to the peak of their careers in one fell swoop, creating a new genre of "zombie films" and "cop films".
In addition to his outstanding directorial talent, Sammo Hung is also unmatched in his own acting skills. With two films, "Beware of Little Hands" and "Seven Little Blessings", he won the Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Supporting Actor twice, fully proving his strength.
And he himself is praised as "the world's most flexible and flexible fat man with excellent martial arts".
