Shaw movies must have been heard by many people, and for Hong Kong film fans, Shaw movies are the memories of a generation.
In the 1950s and 1970s, Shaw films occupied an important position in the film industry, and Bruce Lee and Chen Hou were his big stars.
In addition to these people, "a generation of male gods" Yue Hua is also a well-known male star under Shaw's family, if it is said that Yue Hua is the peak of Shaw Pictures, it is not too much.
At that time, with a "Drunken Man", he let all fans remember Fan Dabei and also remembered the name Yue Hua.
Subsequently, he successively starred in classic works such as "Twelve Cards", "Affair", "Gangster Gangster" and became a very prolific actor in the company.
But people always have to leave, because of accidents, because of illness, because of all other reasons, and leave this world!
And Yue Hua died under the torment of illness, at the age of 76 years!
Although he is long gone, I believe that his works will "live" for him.
There may be many young people who are not familiar with him now, so let's revisit his legendary life together.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">01</h1>
Yue Hua was born in Shanghai in 1942.
Perhaps, Heaven destined him to take the road of deduction. From an early age, Yue Hua was talented and proficient in many musical instruments.
When he was young, he studied playing accordion and piano, played the violin and served as a conductor in a symphony orchestra in middle school, and studied flute during his studies at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music.
In addition to Western music, he also loves traditional arts. When I was a child, I almost saved up to watch the performances of famous actors, and I also loved literature.
At the age of 20, he moved to Hong Kong with his family and studied at the local conservatory of music before moving to Canada.
After many moves, the family that was not rich had a more difficult time, so in order to reduce the burden on his father's shoulders, he was determined to share it.
Although he was proficient in music, Hong Kong music was not in full swing at that time, and he could only find another way.
At that time, a troupe was recruiting actors for "La Traviata", and he was admitted to the exam. Later, it was suggested that he should not apply for Shaw's Southern Experimental Theatre Troupe.
So in 1963, Yue Hua was successfully admitted to the third film and television training class of Shaw's Southern Kingdom, and then began his acting career.
In the training class, from folk dance, northern school fighting to judo, from reading white to singing, as long as it is related to performance, there are special professors.
Gu Wenzong, the leader of the troupe, was extremely concerned about Yue Hua, but whenever there was an opportunity to audition and perform, he recommended Yue Hua to participate.
Soon, Yue Hua was shortlisted for the selection of the protagonist of "Journey to the West", and finally was hand-picked by Shaw and got the role of Sun Wukong.
That year, Yue Hua was twenty-two years old and filmed his first film drama "Journey to the West", as Sun Wukong.
But what really made him famous was "The Drunkard" directed by Hu Jinquan in 1967, "until the old people called me the Drunkard." ”
In 2008, with the role of He Feng in "Pearlescent Treasure", he once again won the attention of many people.
It can be said that for the younger generation, he is the gold medal supporting role in TVB dramas in the past decade.
Although he did not realize his musical dream, he has always been loyal to acting.
And in addition to the classics of acting works, Yue Hua has had three relationships, which are also quite impressive.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">02</h1>
In 1966, he filmed the movie "Drunken Man" with his classmate Chen Honglie and later a generation of martial arts actress Zheng Peipei, and the three of them became popular through this movie.
At this time, Zheng Peipei is in love with the male number two Chen Honglie (Zuo Lengchan), and Yue Hua is a peacemaker between them.
When Chen Honglie turned to pan Yingzi (a generation of empresses) who played Zheng Peipei's subordinates in the film, he naturally stayed with Zheng Peipei and lived together for five years.
Zheng Peipei was his first love, and he loved very deeply at that time. Unfortunately, in 1969, Zheng Peipei abandoned him and went abroad to marry a rich businessman!
But even after they broke up, there was no turning back, but Zheng Peipei said: "Yue Hua is the best man for me." ”
Zheng Peipei is not the only one who thinks that Yue Hua is a good man, when the two of them were dragging, the famous writer Yi Shu was a reporter for Shaw's "Hong Kong Film and Painting", and they often went threesomes that year.
In daily interactions, YiShu was gradually attracted to Yue Hua's good man personality, so after Yue Hua broke up, he successfully chased after him.
Every time Yishu wrote about her interaction with Yue Hua, she always wrote him very Su, like a big brother.
Therefore, many people say that Yi Shu's character, Yue Hua, is the prototype. Even fans praised him!
But the world is unpredictable, and the two still can't get to the end.
Yi Shu is very enthusiastic about Yue Hua's love, eager to publicize his goodness to the world, and she is very sensitive because she does not have absolute beauty.
Because of a little thing, yue Hua's suit and tie would be cut off, and a knife would be inserted in the place where he slept, which was very terrifying.
I have to say that Yishu's love has become a little deformed, a little scary!
The separation of the two is also greatly related to this.
Once, she saw a letter written by Zheng Peipei to Yue Hua, thinking that her boyfriend was disconnected from her old love, so she was angry and handed the letter to the media for public.
Yue Hua could not bear What Yi Shu did, which affected the married Zheng Peipei's family, so she resolutely broke up, and even later Yi Shu knelt down and begged for a reunion, and Yue Hua was not moved.
Later, recalling the relationship on "Zhiyun Dinner Bureau", he said, "Whether she loves me or not, I don't know!" Because of her character... She is a special woman. ”
Later, both immigrated to Canada, even working at the same radio station, sometimes meeting each other in the supermarket, but when they were transparent to each other, they still became "the most familiar strangers"!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">03</h1>
After separating from Yishu, Yue Hua also married an Italian woman.
The girl was known when he started work in Italy, and then came to Hong Kong to play and did not want to leave, so the two soon lived together and got married.
But the young girl's play was undecided, and it didn't take long to run back to Italy!
Unexpectedly, our good old man Yue Hua was finally subdued by a star.
This former Shaw star is named Tian Ni, who looks a bit like Hu Yinmeng and is Tian Yu's sister.
However, although she does not have a wonderful figure, she "can change the world with a pair of eyes, to be charming, to be charming, to be fragrant."
The two met at a food festival in Singapore, and then filmed together, probably because of the drama, and finally they held a Chinese-style wedding at the Miramar Hotel, officially entering the palace of marriage.
If there is anything that Tian Ni makes Yue Hua appreciate, it is free!
She never cared about what would happen tomorrow, and even said, "I'll die at the age of thirty," and she didn't care at all about Yue Hua's marriage in name only.
After Yue Hua's Italian wife returned to China, she never went through a divorce.
It wasn't until thirteen years after living with Tianni that the two officially received their marriage licenses when they moved to Canada!
Although after marriage, there were contradictions between the two, but the good-tempered Yue Hua took good care of her, and went home to accompany his wife as soon as he finished work, and there was no scandal after that!
After moving to Canada, Yue Hua faded out of the show business circle and became the president of the Vancouver Film Artists Association and the director of the Chinese program of the local radio station "Voice of Overseas Chinese".
Ben wanted to go back to Hong Kong to continue his acting career, but he didn't expect Tian Ni not to allow it, he could only give up!
Until his daughter married in Seattle, his wife accompanied him back to Hong Kong with him in order to distract himself, and let him have a lively addiction.
Therefore, in 2000, Yue Hua, who was semi-retired, signed a contract with TVB, and after that, if he met a suitable role, he would gladly play!
From the charming He Feng in "Pearlescent Treasure", the unique-minded Jiang Qiao in "The Gangster", the domineering and shrewd Zheng Langjun in "Yihai Haoqing", to the mercurial Jiang Chengtian in "Famous Door Dark War", he is still one of the most brilliant old drama bones.
The charm that has been emitted after years of precipitation, the kind of momentum that is not angry and arrogant, is really not comparable to that of ordinary newcomers and students.
As a result, he gained a group of young fans in the mainland.
I thought that he could continue to bring us more works, but unexpectedly, an accident still happened!
On October 20, 2018, he died under the torment of illness at the age of 76.
Although people have long gone, the classics will always be passed down, and Yue Hua, the "great hero of a generation", will not be forgotten, and he will always be in our hearts.
Regarding Yue Hua, Yi Shu once said: "He has a good face and a good character. ”
Zheng Peipei still says: "He is the best man for her in this life." ”
And Tian Ni should be the happiest person! After all, she once had Yue Hua's "exclusive favor" and "preference"!
I miss a generation of heroes Yue Hua, and I also hope that the living people will cherish the time even more! May everyone be well!
