The 1980s was the golden age of Hong Kong cinema, and many of today's classic old films were left behind at that time, which made the current generations reminisce endlessly, and in the mid-1980s, it was a period of enthusiasm for Hong Kong zombie movies, which was caused by Lin Zhengying's "Mr. Zombie" at that time.
When this movie was released, it could be said that it triggered a frenzy of national pursuit of the film, and people who had not seen this movie at that time could not keep up with the trend of the times.
This movie is also specially tailored for Lin Zhengying by Hong Jinbao, it is said that many people were not optimistic when filming this film, saying that they would lose money, but Hong Jinbao still decided to gamble for his good friends. Fortunately, they gambled correctly, the film was a great success, and Lin Zhengying became a hit.
Lin Zhengying, who just debuted, like many early Hong Kong action actors, did the business of "Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts", and later Lin Zhengying joined the fan class to study, where he met a group of excellent teacher brothers.
At the beginning, in addition to the "kung fu superstar" Jackie Chan, there was also "big brother" Hong Jinbao. After a period of running-in, the brothers made their debut in a group and were known as the "Seven Little Blessings of Hong Kong".
He won the Best Action Direction Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards for the second and third consecutive years, namely "Loser Boy" and "Five Lucky Stars".
The unexpected death of Bruce Lee made Lin Zhengying return to the pre-liberation period and his career fell;
At this moment, his second nobleman appeared, that is, his fellow disciple Hong Jinbao.
So he joined the Hong family class, and it was not until 1982 that he reappeared on the screen with the movie "Scary People", and Lin Zhengying, who has been directing behind the scenes, is a very good actor.
The appearance of Lin Zhengying completely rewrites the definition of "ghost film".
In 1985, Lin Zhengying's "Mr. Zombie" was released, breaking the 20 million box office of the same type of film for the first time, and no one can break this record so far, and this movie is hong Jinbao tailor-made for Lin Zhengying.
Like later "Mr. Phantom", "New Mr. Zombie" and then "Zombie Family".
They all achieved good results, and they all played "Uncle Nine" in the film.
At that time, Lin Zhengying was the first person in the zombie movie, and his career was booming, and at this time he also met his favorite woman, Yuan Qiongdan.
The two got together because of the drama, and it was also very sweet in the crew, at that time, everyone thought that the two were going to get married, but Lin Zhengying suddenly broke up with Yuan Qiongdan. Because the incident happened suddenly, Yuan Qiongdan could not accept it, and she tried her best to keep Lin Zhengying, but she was still "abandoned". Sadly, Yuan Qiongdan left the port to heal his wounds.
But at that time, Lin Zhengying was found to have liver cancer and had reached an advanced stage, in order not to drag Yuan Qiongdan, he unilaterally announced the news of the breakup.
Even if Lin Zhengying refused anyone's visit in the hospital, Yuan Qiongdan still inquired about his news through many people, paying close attention to Lin Zhengying's condition, hoping that a miracle could occur.
In 1997, Lin Zhengying was still working hard until his condition deteriorated, and he did not go to the hospital for treatment until his condition deteriorated, but he died within a few days of hospitalization.
Before Lin Zhengying was seriously ill and dying, he endured the pain of illness and made the last phone call in his life.
The phone call was addressed to Hong Jinbao, who instructed him:
"Don't let everyone see my body."
Yuan Qiongdan appeared at the funeral as Lin Zhengying's wife, making a final farewell in this capacity.
The funeral was decorated in a Buddhist way, so the whole hall looked super weird.
It is rumored that at the funeral site, many black butterflies flew in.
After Lin Zhengying's death, zombie films were completely ignored;
It's the end of an era;
The glutinous rice red rope is still there, and there is no Lin Zhengying in the world.
