On November 2, according to Hong Kong media reports, the old drama Bone Stone Tian died of cancer, and the younger son Dickson subsequently confirmed the death of his father.
In fact, the news of Shi Tian's death was already reported on the Internet last night. In the earliest days, veteran actor Lin Junxian posted a tribute to Shi Tian on his personal social account, and he also praised Shi Tian's series of contributions to Hong Kong movies.
After that, the reporter called Shi Tian's phone, but no one answered, so he contacted a group of former friends, hoping to get more accurate information.
Huang Baiming was shocked to hear the news of his friend's death, saying that he did not know. He revealed that Shi Tian had been suffering from cancer for many years, and after treatment, his condition improved for a while, but he did not expect to relapse recently.
Shi Nansheng said that a friend had heard the news of Shi Tian's death, but he did not know whether it was true or not.
Since everyone could not confirm the news of Shi Tian's death, a group of netizens left messages saying that they hoped that the news was fake.
Unfortunately, after further verification, Shi Tian has indeed passed away. The youngest son, Dickson, said in an interview that his father died of cancer, and his last wish was to deal with the affairs behind his back in a low profile, so the family did not publicize it.
When Huang Baiming was interviewed again, he cried out in sadness, saying that he would respect the last wishes of his deceased friend and his family, and would not hold a memorial service or make a special edition for the time being, and would make arrangements after The Shi Tian family had handled everything properly.
He also mentioned that in the last text message conversation with Shi Tian on September 7, Shi Tian said that he was treated in the hospital and hoped to come out for a party after discharge. Unexpectedly, the two are now separated forever.
Mention the name of Shi Tian, I believe that the older generation of audience friends must be no strangers, in the 70s and 80s he once won the Hong Kong circle, successfully created countless classic films, is an important representative of the glorious period of Hong Kong films.
Shi Tian, who liked to watch dramas since he was a child, entered the film industry as he wished to develop when he grew up.
In those years, he has starred in countless classic movies, and the most impressive roles should be Master Li in "The Serpentine Executioner" and Dragon Fourth in "Hero True Colors 2", with superb acting skills and many people's praise.
Versatile, he is also a very good behind-the-scenes staff, proficient in directing and writing. The famous New Art City Film Company was founded by him, Huang Baiming, Mai Jia and others.
Unfortunately, the company was dissolved early due to the problem of accounting. Shi Tian's follow-up development was average, so he chose to fade out of the entertainment circle and change his career to business. It is said that over the years he has earned a lot of money and lived a comfortable life.
In 2016, after many years off the screen, he was invited by Hong Jinbao to make a cameo appearance in the movie "My Secret Agent Grandpa". Although he has not filmed for many years, his acting skills have not regressed at all.
However, with the death of Shi Tian, we will not be able to see him on the screen again in the future.
Speaking of which, in addition to Shi Tian, in the past 10 months, the Hong Kong circle has really gone a lot of people, plus Shi Tian, a total of 8 Hong Kong stars have died of cancer, including Wu Mengda, Liao Qizhi, Huang Shutang, Wu Shaofang, Chen Jirong, Li Mingwei, Xia Yulin.
Among these people are old drama bones in their seventies and eighties, and there are also young artists in their early thirties, which is really sad. Here, I wish them all the best!
