In the Hong Kong artist, Tang Zhenzong is one of the earliest actors known to our mainland audiences, because as early as 1989, he came to the mainland as the first Hong Kong film and television actor to shoot the famous TV series "Fengshen List", in which he played Bo Yikao and was well known to the audience, and then his TV series "Foreign Sister" was even more popular, coupled with his own handsome appearance, which earned enough goodwill from the audience that year.
Mr. Tang was born on October 30, 1956 on Lamma Island, Hong Kong. His father ran a seafood shop for a living, with a total of eight brothers and sisters, Tang Zhenzong ranked fourth, and his brother Tang Zhenye ranked fifth. Tang Zhenzong and his younger brother Tang Zhenye went to school together in the same year, and after graduating from high school, they worked as a clerk in a shipping company for more than three years.

In 1982, Tang Zhenzong participated in the first film performance of Hong Kong Century Film Company's "Kill out of the West Camp", which is one of the New Wave films in Hong Kong. However, because the film was filmed privately during the training period, Tang Zhenzong was expelled from the wireless artist training class. Later, Tang Zhenzong signed a contract with the film company.
In 1983, due to the collapse of the Hong Kong Century Film Company, Tang Zhenzong joined the Shaw Film Company, participating in films such as "Fate" and "Walking Artillery", during which he also participated in advertising shoots and TV drama performances, such as "Hong Kong Hong Kong Home in Cheung Chau".

Tang Zhenzong's first drama filmed at ATV was "The Brave New World of 101 Arrest Order", and then participated in the filming of many TV series, such as "Laughing Cause", "Sable Cicada" and "French Open Tenderness", mostly starring as male number two, so I feel that there is not much room for development in Hong Kong.
In 1988, Tang Zhenzong left ATV after filming his last TV series at ATV, "Royal Archives I" (starring in one of the units). In 1988, Tang Zhenzong filmed the TV series "Beauty has a Date" in Taiwan, playing the male number one Luo Ziqi, but because he was ostracized by the local Actors in Taiwan in the same drama, the shooting process was not pleasant.
In 1989, Tang Zhenzong went to the mainland to shoot the Shanghai TV drama production center's "List of Fengshen Gods", starring in Bo Yikao, which was his first TV series to shoot in the mainland; in the same year, he filmed the role of Tian Guinong in the Taiwanese TV series "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" filmed in the mainland.
In 1990, Tang Zhenzong filmed a TV series in Guangdong that had a turning point in his acting career, "Foreign Sister"; after the TV series was broadcast on CCTV in early 1992, it was affirmed by experts and welcomed by the audience, in which Tang Zhenzong created the image of a new Hong Kong boss - Jiang Sheng. Due to the success of this play, Tang Zhenzong later focused his acting work on the mainland.
In 1994, he played the Hong Kong boss Lin Dawei in the TV series "The Woman Who Lives in the Villa" broadcast by CCTV.
In 1994, he starred in the film "One Family, Two Systems" that welcomed the return of Hong Kong, and played by The Hong Kong boss Ah Wen and Yan Xiaopin, a mainland female computer expert, who had a love story, which won the 1994 Huabiao Award for Outstanding Feature Film and the "Five One Project" Award of the Central Propaganda Department.
In 2003, in the TV series "Tianlong Babu", he played Duan Zhengchun.
The love between Tang Zhenzong and his wife Zhang Lixia can be said to be a fairy tale, Zhang Lixia is an authentic outsider and has nothing to do with the entertainment industry, when she was 21 years old and just graduated from college, she married Tang Zhenzong, who was not yet popular at that time, and dedicated all her youth to this man she loved deeply. Now that the two have been married for 33 years, they are still as enviable as ever.
Tang Zhenzong has 2 daughters, and now the eldest daughter, Tang Luowen, is 32 years old and has participated in the Hong Kong Sisters beauty pageant and missed the champion. Tang Luowen is known as "long-legged Guo Xianni". Because his father is Tang Zhenzong and his uncle is Tang Zhenye, Tang Luowen has attracted much attention. Tang Luowen, who comes from an acting family, has an excellent appearance and a good education, she is not only beautiful and sweet, but also a rare school bully, and has been praised as a "school flower" since the beginning of school, which is beautiful.
Today, Tang Zhenzong is 63 years old, and he has not changed much compared with when he was young, and he is still the gentle and elegant look. May he continue to be graceful, the wind and rain in the play, and the world outside the play.
