In 2018, chu Yuan, an 84-year-old director at the time, won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards. It was his 73-year-old apprentice Feng Quanfan who gave him the award.
Chu Yuan's spirit was strong, but Feng Quefan looked like he had become a "dry and thin" old man.
However, this "skinny old man" was once a heavyweight in Hong Kong comedy films, known as the "ancestor of humor". He has filmed comedy films such as the "Five Lucky Stars" series and "Hardcover Chasing Girls".
Feng's comedic form does not rely on appearance and funny body movements. On the contrary, in works such as "Five Blessings", he often wears a duck-tongue hat and a big beard, always looking like a serious person.
The "rhinoceros skin" he plays is a big brother in front of Hong Jinbao, Wu Yaohan and others, and he is the one who bullies people. But he can show the city spirit in his bones and bring people a different laugh.
This may also be related to his personality. When filming "Five Lucky Stars", Feng Quefan was already 40 years old, in fact, he was not a funny person before.
The early Feng Quanfan was still quite beautiful.
At the age of 20, he was appreciated by Chu Yuan and made his first film, and then switched to Wireless and starred in Wireless's first feature-length TV series "Dream Breaks Love Heaven".
The ten years in wireless are the ten years of his struggle period. With hard work and talent, Feng Quanfan soon became the first student of wireless.
At that time, in addition to acting, he also worked as a producer, screenwriter and director, and also worked as an interviewer for actor training classes. Zhou Runfa was one of the juniors he had promoted.
At that time, there were three or four main examiners interviewing Zhou Runfa, and he gave the highest score, and in the end, he decided to admit Zhou Runfa. It can also be regarded as a discerning pearl.
In 1987, he also collaborated with Zhou Runfa on "Hardcover Chasing Girls". That year was the year when Zhou Runfa played "The True Colors of Heroes" to regain its glory.
But it seems that fate always likes to joke with Feng Quefan.
After working on the main stage for more than ten years, he did not become famous, but became famous on the comedy stage in middle age; later he acted in comedy for decades, but said that he did not like to act comedy.
Just like he became famous in Hong Kong, worked hard in Hong Kong for decades but said that he had no feelings for Hong Kong, and now he has gone to Taiwan to settle down.
And he always has the image of a master chasing girls in the movie, but he has never been married in life.
When it comes to the reason for being single, Feng Quefan said that he "believes in fate" and always feels that he is a lonely life. But many people think that this is actually related to his personality.
Feng Quefan has a nickname of "Ah Tight", and his personality is also "tight". He himself admits that he is somewhat withdrawn and not easy to get along with others.
It's like those two failed relationships when he was younger.
His first love is the famous Wang Mingquan. At that time, the two were both in their 20s, and the two sides also admired each other, but eventually broke up due to personality discord.
In 2016, the nearly 70-year-old Wang Mingquan also praised the other party as a talent when mentioning this past. And commented that he said that "he may need a bird of honor" "Maybe he is not married, single is more suitable for him, there is freedom." There is a difference between being married and being single. ”
Later, Feng Quanfan and Zeng Qingyu had a love affair, but it only lasted for two years.
Feng Quefan said, "I will never find a companion for a companion", even now his attitude towards love is still so dashing.
He doesn't like to be managed, he's not used to living with others, and he thinks getting married is a "troublesome thing." But he also doesn't feel lonely because he has a lot of good friends.
It is only because of the failure of early investment that Feng Quanfan's material life seems to be less dashing. Some media reported that he is only renting a 30-square-meter house today. Reports of his "getting old" are often reported in the media.
Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, his current state of "lonely and old" may not be happy, but who is right about happiness?
Everyone pursues differently, but each pursuit has its own happiness, or being single is enough for him. After all, it has also been brilliant, once dashing, there is an object to share, and there is the capital of memories.
