When it comes to Stephen Chow, many people are already familiar with him, but Zhou Xingchi really makes everyone love, or from his Chinese works into the mainland, many people are obsessed with him, starting from the sound on the screen. The biggest contributor behind this is none other than Taiwanese voice actor Shi Banyu. After Zhou Xingchi became famous at home and abroad, audiences who were accustomed to listening to Mandarin, and then went to find his early, non-Shi Banyu dubbing works, found that its excitement was greatly reduced, especially it can also be seen that Shi Banyu's role in Zhou Xingchi's Chinese audience.
Shi Banyu' original surname was Jin, born in the village, the family was very poor at that time, so his parents had to give him to a couple surnamed Shi for adoption. Perhaps for fear of affecting his healthy growth, his adoptive parents did not tell him the truth until he died, so Shi Banyu knew nothing about his true life.
After that, he relied on his special voice and began to engage in dubbing work, at first mainly with some small characters in TV series, and often some villains, such as eunuchs, traitors and other roles, orthodox voice actors, all scorned his voice, thinking that he would not develop much.
Until 1991, Shi Banyu was selected in "Gambler" to voice Zhou Xingchi, when Shi Banyu's dubbing career was at a low ebb, this time he also completely let go, he according to the performance characteristics of Zhou Xingchi, in the sound, combined with the exaggerated actions of the other party, at the same time carried out a second sound performance, the result was greatly welcomed by the market after exiting, many people even think that it is the original sound of Zhou Xingchi.
For this reason, the Taiwan agency company responsible for the distribution of Stephen Chow's films simply directly authorized him to become the exclusive dubber of Stephen Chow in Taiwan, and after that, Shi Banyu began a dubbing career for more than ten years, specifically for Stephen Chow, saying that he was the most familiar with Stephen Chow, I am afraid it is not exaggerated.
But as we all know, the dubbing industry is an industry where feelings are far greater than income, and many people are engaged in this line of love out of hobbies, but it is really difficult to use it to support their families. Although relying on the name of "Zhou Xingchi" royal dubbing, Shi Banyu has a higher income than the average dubbing artist, but it is not enough to cope with his daily expenses.
So in the end, Shi Banyu began to change careers in 2009 and became a tour guide, and because of this, it completely changed his life.
During a group trip, Linda, the lady of the travel agency at the time, found that Shi Banyu was very similar to her ex-husband, and she herself felt incredible.
Linda said to Shi Banyu, "How do you look like me that has no chance?" ”
At that time, Shi Banyu was still quite embarrassed, but he did not pay attention to it. Later, by chance, he met his third brother, who was a bus driver at the time, and the two felt very cordial as soon as they met, and agreed to talk in detail the next time they met.
He immediately rushed to Taoyuan City, and as soon as he entered the door, he was considered by the neighbors to be the second eldest of the family, and later when he met the family, he felt more and more that he was one of them. It turned out that Shi Banyu was just born, he was given to his current adoptive parents by his parents, and then their family moved, and the two families also lost contact, and even before the death of his adoptive parents, he did not reveal his true origins.
Later, through DNA testing, it was confirmed that he was indeed a member of the Jin family, and the brothers and sisters also revealed that every time her mother saw Zhou Xingchi's movie, she would pause for a long time when she heard Shi Banyu's voice.
Finally, at the suggestion of the eldest brother, Shi Banyu did not change back to the surname of Jin, after all, his adoptive parents raised himself, and Shi Banyu also said hilariously: Now it is Shi Banyu who is inlaid with gold.
