On March 11, when Lin Zishan was interviewed by reporters, he specially thanked a person, this person is tian Qiwen, who is known as "Tian Ji", Lin Zishan called Tian Qiwen his benefactor who entered the industry, when it comes to emotional places, his eyes are red, and he can't control his emotions completely.
Before, Lin Zishan always thought that he was an artist under Zhou Xingchi's company, and he also thought that the remuneration he received was paid to him by Zhou Xingchi, but in fact, the person who gave him a stable salary was actually Tian Qiwen. Tian Qiwen admired Lin Zishan's talent, but Zhou Xingchi did not intend to sign Lin Zishan, so Tian Qiwen simply signed Lin Zishan himself, and his statement to Lin Zishan was that this was a contract with Zhou Xingchi.
Lin Zishan's dream has always been to sign a contract with Zhou Xingchi, so he feels very happy. Since signing the contract, he can get about 10,000 Hong Kong dollars a month as a reward, such a job is very stable, for Lin Zishan, an actor who is three lines away, it is already a good treatment.
In the entertainment circle, which is more respectful of appearance, from the perspective of Lin Zishan's appearance, he is more restricted to take over the role, and generally can only be a golden supporting role in comedy movies, using red flowers to set off green leaves. He has been playing roles in Stephen Chow's films before, such as the lecherous Hong Ye in "The King of Comedy" and the gangster boy who loves to play rogues in "Kung Fu", which has made a deep impression.
Although these roles are classic, they also limit Lin Zishan to a narrower drama path, which cannot bring greater help to his career, so after the expiration of the initial contract, Lin Zishan is determined to go to TVB to develop and explore his own new drama road, and it is in the process of contract handover that Lin Zishan discovered a surprising secret.
It turned out that his contract had always been signed under Tian Qiwen's personal banner, and the cost of his signing actors was Tian Qiwen's own personal expenses, and sometimes Lin Zishan did not receive any notices and jobs for a month, and Tian Qiwen not only did not make any money, but actually lost money.
After learning about this incident, Lin Zishan was very touched and praised Tian Qiwen as a "real hero" who helped him for twenty years. He also revealed that once before he wanted to buy a computer, but the computer needed 17,000 Hong Kong dollars, he could not afford to pay the computer because of his shyness, and Tian Qiwen did not hesitate, directly lent him the money, this matter has always been remembered in his heart, unforgettable.
Tian Qiwen's righteousness has always been praised in the entertainment industry, and he has done his best for his old friends. After Wu Mengda's illness died, it was also after he was busy, took care of it, and did his best to send Wu Mengda on his last journey. In 1984, when Tian Qiwen filmed "Nine Pin Sesame Officer", he was appreciated by Stephen Chow and has since become one of the royal teams of Stephen Chow's films.
In 1996, he signed a contract with Stephen Chow's company, and in addition to being an actor, he also held several positions, expanded his side business, usually he also took on the pre-screen work, administrative work, and business expansion for Stephen Chow's films, and took on most of the roles of the company, which can be called Chow Xingchi's right hand and right arm, loyal to Zhou Xingchi.
Perhaps in the drama jianghu, Tian Qiwen does not have much high film and television achievements, but in the jianghu of human nature, he has achieved a great shore in his life and has no shame.
