In the hearts of many viewers, when it comes to those childhood kung fu films, they will think of the kung fu films brought by Jackie Chan when he first debuted, which can be said to have created a new era of kung fu films, but for the audience born in the 60s and 70s, they will definitely remember Wang Yu and Fu Sheng, who were earlier than Jackie Chan's fame, they are all young and famous, if it is not because of accidents, they will have a better future. 1975's "Shen Da" can be said to be a representative of the old kung fu films, this movie is also Liu Jialiang's first work, and Zeng Zhiwei, Feng Ke'an, Ren Dahua, etc. are only playing thugs in it, I don't know if everyone has any impression of the male and female protagonists Jin Lian and Xiao Qian.
Jin Lian is the heroine of the movie, pure, beautiful and clever, who has helped Xiao Qian many times and made up for Xiao Qian's deficiencies in subtleties, and her actor is Lin Zhenqi. Lin Zhenqi was born in Taiwan in 1955, grew up with a special water spirit, after graduating from junior high school, she was discovered to shoot models with her outstanding appearance, and in 1973, she was appreciated by Shaw and signed a contract with Shaw to officially enter the show business circle. In 1974, he starred in his first solo film "Double Dragon Valley", although it was only a supporting role, but it was eye-catching when he appeared.
Nowadays, many viewers should not know Lin Zhenqi, after all, the era of her fame is a little far away from now, and her acting career is also very short, but our parents should remember her, and her career peak was also in the 70s. In 1975, Lin Zhenqi was invited by Liu Jialiang to participate in "Shen Da", playing the heroine in the play and became popular, this film may not have much influence today, but its influence in the 1970s is still far-reaching. Subsequently, she brought works such as "The Taxi Gangster", "The Great Robbery", "Cohabitation" and other works, especially the bold nudity in "Cohabitation", which made her receive a lot of attention.
Another representative work of Lin Zhenqi was in 1980 in Xu Ke's "First Type Of Danger", which was a sensation at the time and became a topic in the city. Unfortunately, this film has also become Lin Zhenqi's masterpiece, after filming "First Type Danger", Lin Zhenqi chose to stop filming and went to the United States for further study. Compared with her acting career, she also received a lot of attention in her feelings, and when she slapped god, she and the male protagonist Wang Yu sparked a love spark, Wang Yu took good care of her, when she was not happy everywhere in Shaw's house, and twice swallowed sleeping pills with the intention of suicide, Wang Yu was by her side. In June 1976, Lin Zhenqi chose to cut the pulse to end her life, fortunately Wang Yu found out in time and sent to the hospital, so she was able to save her life, and during Lin Zhenqi's accidental horse fall to recuperate, Wang Yu also went to see her many times, but unfortunately the two finally broke up in 1977, because she thought she was not worthy of Wang Yu.
After the shadow faded out, Lin Zhenqi met Li Delin, who ran a frozen meat business in the United States, and the two soon fell in love and married in 1982, and then gave birth to a son and a daughter. After marriage, Lin Zhenqi and her husband started a business, the two opened a chain restaurant In 1999, she served as the head of the personnel department, and now the two develop catering together, and the "King of pickpocket" restaurant founded is popular throughout Hong Kong. Lin Zhenqi is not a popular actor, but she has also brought wonderful works to the audience, and now the family of four lives a happy life, and because of the catering once again famous in Hong Kong, this is also the life Lin Zhenqi wants most.
Xiao Qiansheng is cowardly and afraid of things, and loves to play small clever, but his nature is not bad, and he will occasionally rush to the brain to fight for the weak people, and become upright and confident because of encountering Jin Lian, and his actor is Wang Yu. Born in Hong Kong in 1955, Wang Yu did not read any books in his childhood, did not learn any kung fu when he was a child, and has been mixing in Tsim Sha Tsui, but fortunately, the early Hong Kong films started more with these mixed people, because being able to mix also shows that he has his own unique skills. Therefore, at the age of 15, Wang Yu began to contact movies, working as a stand-in in "DangkouTan", and in 1972, just after signing a contract with Shao Shi, he played the Tongzhi Emperor in Li Hanxiang's film "Rouge in the Northland", and began to emerge.
Wang Yu really became popular in 1975, 20-year-old Wang Yu starred in Liu Jialiang's "Divine Fight", in order to promote Liu Jialiang accepted him as an apprentice, which is the greatest luck for Wang Yu. As soon as this movie was broadcast, it immediately made him popular and became the most popular and promising one of Shaw's. And this year, Zeng Zhiwei was only Liu Jiaban's dragon set martial artist, and Jackie Chan was still running a dragon set as a martial artist. After becoming popular, he gained more resources, playing Huang Feihong's brother in "Huang Feihong and Lu Acai", playing Ling Huchong in "Smiling Proud of the Jianghu", and playing Wei Xiaobao in "Deer Dingji", which further proved his status as a first-line student, and his unique and humorous style brought great visual impact to the audience.
However, the young fame also made Wang Yu feel inflated, it is said that he was very high-profile and arrogant at that time, but it has to be said that when he was most popular, every scene he shot could bring high ratings. Whether it is Yang Yilang in "Wulang Bagua Stick" or Hong Wending in "Hong Xiguan", he is perfectly displayed. However, all this glory and fame came to an abrupt end in 1983, that year, fu Sheng and Wang Yu, who were also superstars, drove two cars to the set of Clearwater Bay Road to shoot the location, and when they were young and vigorous, they got up on the road, and when they passed through a corner of Clearwater Bay, Fu Sheng's car suddenly crashed into the side of the mountain and was seriously damaged, Fu Sheng was hit by the sound material in the car and broke his ribs, resulting in ribs inserted into the heart and died. Afterwards, Wang Yu was pointed out by thousands of husbands, and since then Wang Yu has been guilty and self-blamed in his heart, falling into a whirlpool of pain and unable to extricate himself.
This accident completely changed the trajectory of the lives of the two film giants, and since then, Wang Yu's films have become less and less, and by the early nineties, they have been basically forgotten by everyone, plus they are infected with drugs and squander their own money. At the most depressed time, only Zeng Zhiwei was helping him, and let Wang Yu play a small role in his own "Absolute Double Glory", but unfortunately, after filming "First Wash Future Money" in 1994, Wang Yu quit the film and television circle. After the film, Wang Yu worked insurance, worked as a hawker, angelica porter, and also did the cold fruit business, but did not do a good job, and then Wang Yu basically passed out negative news, drug addiction, violent beating of his ex-girlfriend and imprisonment. Although Wang Yu survived two heart surgeries, he eventually died in 2008 at the age of 53 due to ineffective hospital admission to acute hepatitis.
Lin Zhenqi and Wang Yu not only play lovers in the movie, but also have an unforgettable love outside the play, and now although Lin Zhenqi has long faded out of the film world, she is very happy, and the business with her husband is very successful, and Wang Yu made a mistake and fell directly when her career was in the middle of the day, and finally died in pain, which makes people very emotional. Although Fu Sheng's death is not his fault, but the mental blow to him is very large, his life has experienced too much suffering, and now that he has passed away may be a kind of spiritual relief, I hope that he will not be alone with Fu Sheng's company on the other side.
