After discussing whether Zhou Xingchi would go to Fuling for many days on the media and social platforms, Wu Mengda's funeral ceremony was not held publicly on March 8.
In fact, the entire funeral adopted the form of Christ, Wu Mengda's funeral did not have a spirit support ceremony, Wu Mengda's body was sent to Hong Kong's Gelianchen Corner for cremation, and a generation of famous horns completely bid farewell to the world.
On March 7, the funeral of the famous movie star Wu Mengda was held at the Hung Hom World Funeral Home in Hong Kong, and many artists either came to the scene or sent flower signs to send off their Da Ge or Uncle Da, and the Chinese media in Hong Kong broadcast live.
What did not disappoint the media was that the media and netizens discussed for a week that Zhou Xingchi not only appeared, but also was the first to come to the funeral home to finally send off his old partner.
Zhou Xingchi, who appeared in front of the public on the same day, was dressed in black, wearing a duck-tongue hat and a mask, and could not see his facial expression clearly, but according to insiders, Xingye was full of sorrow.
Previously, some people said that Zhou Xingchi would not come to the funeral because of the re-shooting of "Mermaid 2" in Shenzhen, and when he returned to Hong Kong, he would not be able to attend the funeral due to the quarantine of the epidemic regulations.
In fact, this is unfamiliar with Hong Kong's current epidemic prevention regulations.
As early as late November last year, the Hong Kong government launched the "Easy To Hong Kong" scheme, that is, Hong Kong residents who are deep in Guangdong or Macau can return to Hong Kong to be exempted from 14 days of quarantine, and only need to apply for an easy-to-return quota in advance.
Therefore, the Star Ye that netizens had discussed before may not be able to return to Hong Kong because he is in Shenzhen, and there is no problem at all.
The speculation and disputes over whether Xingye would attend Uncle Da's funeral for many days finally came to an end. Xingye, who almost never participated in the red and white celebrations of the people around him, finally came to the funeral home and personally bid farewell to his old friends.
And the many question marks of ordinary fans about Wu Mengda's body have also been opened.
The first question about Wu Mengda is the age problem that the media and even the people around him have not figured out.
Some say 68 years old, some say 70 years old, and even the official media "People's Daily", "The Paper" and others initially published the news, they also have different opinions, is Uncle Da born in 1951, 1952 or 1953?
As a result, the obituary issued by the family members showed that he was 71 years old.
However, according to the current revised date of birth of Wu Mengda on Baidu Encyclopedia, he was born on January 2, 1952, which was also confirmed by Tian Qiwen, who conducted the entire funeral of Wu Mengda.
So, the real age of Wu Mengda's death should be 69 years old?
In 1952, the dragon was born, but it was born on January 2, and it was not yet the Lunar New Year, so Wu Mengda could only be a rabbit.
But will the family's obituary be wrong, it will certainly not be wrong.
Wu Mengda was born on January 2, 1952 in rural Xiamen, according to the old custom of rural Guangdong, the lunar calendar on this day is the sixth day of the first month of December in 1951.
In the old days, even if the lunar year was one year older, which is what we usually call the false age, so the family wrote in the obituary that Wu Mengda died at the age of 71, which is in line with customs and customs, and there is no mistake.
Therefore, tian Qiwen said in response to a reporter's question that the media is right to write about 69 years old and 70 years old.
The second question about Wu Mengda is, is he and Xingye really disagreed, so that they have not cooperated for so many years?
On March 7, Wu Mengda's younger brother answered a reporter's question and said that the relationship between Xingye and his brother had always been very good.
However, we have also personally heard Wu Mengda and the host say in previous programs that his relationship with Zhou Xingchi feels a bit old and dead.
Although Wu Mengda has worked with Stephen Chow on 26 films, it is well known that after "Shaolin Football" at the beginning of this century, the two have never worked together again.
Did the two have a conflict?
Wu Mengda once personally said to Lu Yu in "Lu Yu Has a Date" that Zhou Xingchi had looked for him when filming "Kung Fu" in 2003, but because of SARS, the shooting was delayed, and Wu Mengda had already signed a contract with a domestic company for a TV series, and if he broke the contract, he would have to pay a huge amount of money, and there was no way but to push away "Kung Fu".
Zhou Xingchi also looked for him when filming "The Mermaid", but at that time, Wu Mengda's heart disease did not heal and he could only push it off again.
Zhou Xingchi and Xu Ke cooperated in "Journey to the West Voldemort Part 2", Xu Ke also invited Wu Mengda, but also because of Wu's body and schedule, he could not make the trip.
It can be seen that there is no contradiction between Zhou and Wu.
As for Wu Mengda's feeling that Zhou Xingchi's neglect, it is to blame Xingye's lack of handling of the world's human feelings.
Over the years, not only Zhou Xingchi's original Bole Li Xiuxian, but also Wan Ziliang, who brought him out, as well as Wang Jing, Xiang Tai, Huang Yifei, and even Yu Wenfeng, who was once a pillow person, came out to scold Zhou Xingchi to the media.
Ex-girlfriend Yu Wenfeng also fought two lawsuits with Xingye.
These all say that celebrities are not good at managing their relationships with friends.
Because these people scolded him for being nothing more than being unsympathetic and impersonal.
Hong Jinbao scolded Zhou Xingchi as "You can't just be a human being, everything else is a dog!" It is nothing more than That Stephen Chow's martial arts design in "Kung Fu" does not conform to what he thinks in his heart, and he has a higher pursuit of movies, while Hong Jinbao believes that filmmaking is just a profession, not an ideal in his heart.
And the melon-eating audience has never seen Wu Mengda criticize Xingye in the media.
Many things are also misunderstood, when Wan Ziliang originally participated in "The King of Comedy", the result was that he misunderstood Xingye due to the announcement time, but Zhou Xingchi did not clarify.
For anyone's criticism of him, Zhou Xingchi has never replied.
The person who most resembles his temperament is Liang Chaowei, who went with him to join TVB.
Liang Chaowei and the other four tigers of the Five Tigers, especially Andy Lau, also had many misunderstandings. But what makes him different from Zhou Xingchi is that he has a sociable, well-rounded wife, Liu Jialing, to help him solve problems that he is not good at solving.
The third question about Wu Mengda is, has he ever recorded a review of the DVD "Eight and a Half Parts"?
"Eight and a Half" is a masterpiece by the Italian film master Fellini, and for many years it has been rumored that Wu Mengda once wrote a commentary on the DVD of this film and recorded it in a tidbit.
The funny star Uncle Da thus put on a literary aura.
This disc has also sold a lot in the past decade or twenty because of the selling point of "wu Mengda's reviewed films".
Pirates at the time said they invited Wu Mengda through connections and wrote a subtitle for the "Eight and a Half Parts" Chinese commentary, when they called Wu Mengda, China's most famous "Fellini film lover".
Many fans also said that this is the best "eight and a half" film review they have ever seen.
Its writing is smooth, from the background of creation, to fellini's life, the introduction of actors, to the impact of the film on future generations, as well as to the interpretation of dreams in the film, the metaphor of props, lens analysis, etc., etc., longitudinal and horizontal, there are more than 10,000 words.
To this day, on social platforms, some people still regard it as Wu Mengda's work. In fact, it was just a gimmick made by pirates to sell DVD of literary and art films.
Wu Mengda himself is a comedy star, dancing with teeth and claws in the movie, greasy and obscene, lustful and timid, but outside the film is a complete literary and art film lover?! Such a strong contrast is enough to attract a large number of fans who buy discs.
Unfortunately, it is really not Wu Mengda's work.
About Wu Mengda's works, which have not yet appeared, there is only one blockbuster war blockbuster "Littoral Confrontation", which began filming last October and is expected to be released in this year's National Day file.
In the past two days, the film has released some stills of the film, etc., although there is a suspicion of rubbing Wu Mengda's heat, it still makes many fans who love Wu Mengda very concerned.
In this last theatrical film before Wu Mengda's death, Uncle Da played a patriotic scientist who mastered the achievements of marine high-tech achievements, which is a film based on the anti-terrorism operation of the Navy Special Forces, directed by Lin Delu, who has directed the "Anti-Corruption Storm" series that has been quite popular in recent years.
According to the crew, on the shooting scene, Uncle Da still showed his consistent "two without on the set" style: one did not bring the script; the other did not bring an assistant.
Without a script is that Wu Mengda has memorized the lines in advance every time since decades, and he will also memorize the lines of others, so that on the set, people often prompt "forget the lines to find Uncle Da".
The absence of an assistant makes Wu Mengda's approachable art more obvious.
The film remuneration of the whole play can not even catch up with the small fresh meat one day's remuneration, Wu Mengda will invite everyone to eat afternoon tea every time on the set, and each time it costs a lot.
Many artists, recalling the past of working with Wu Mengda, will say a lot of the other side of their hearts that we can't see.
However, on the morning of March 8, Uncle Da finally turned into a puff of green smoke and left. Wu Mengda's current wife will return to Malaysia with his ashes, and returning to his lover is also his last wish.
