On July 6, Liao Weixiong, a veteran actor nicknamed "Ah Can", posted a recent photo on his personal social account with the text: Have you ever eaten a red durian?
Unconsciously, Liao Weixiong is 63 years old this year. He rarely appears, and his heart is really a big change, which makes it difficult to identify at once. The skin on his face is loose, and he has gained a "three-layer" chin, which is almost the same as when he was a star before. However, his temperament is still simple, and he laughs very generously.
Speaking of Liao Weixiong, I believe that the audience friends who love to watch Hong Kong dramas must be familiar with it. In the 1980s and 1990s, he was not only a famous imitator, but also one of the TVB masters.
As an actor, Liao Weixiong, who has small eyes and a big mouth, does not look handsome at all, and his appearance cannot be compared with Lu Liangwei, who debuted at the same time.
Liao Weixiong is also very self-aware, he knows that he is not handsome, so he did not want to grab some handsome guy roles that were not suitable for him to play, but was very willing to play a clown.
In 1979, after running the dragon suit for a while, Liao Weixiong finally received a role with more drama, the new immigrant "Cheng Can" in the drama "People in the Net".
In order to play this role well, Liao Weixiong worked hard to study the script, and finally played the role of "Ah Can" with excellent acting skills. In the play, the scene where he swallowed 30 hamburgers in one go became a hot topic at the time.
After the popularity opened, Liao Weixiong received a lot of invitations, but he still wanted to play a supporting role. Because tvb at that time was in a brilliant period, there were too many handsome and acting students, and everyone was waiting in line to get on the top, so the high-level people did not dare to risk letting liao Weixiong, who was not proud, serve as the male number one.
Although he still has to play a supporting role, Liao Weixiong is not discouraged, he continues to shoot, but also often appears on variety shows, imitating various stars and celebrities.
Among them, Liao Weixiong created a funny character "Qiao Tai" in the variety show "Laughing Star Saves the Earth", which has become a classic for a while. It is said that Wang Zulan also chose to embark on the road of acting after watching his performance.
After the popularity is getting higher and higher, Liao Weixiong finally got the opportunity to star in the TV series male number one. In those years, among the series of protagonists he starred in, the more impressive ones must be Chen Jichang in "Hedong Lion Roar", Lu Qianshi in "Entertainment Transfer Student", and Shangren in "Brothers and Brothers Me".
Unfortunately, when Liao Weixiong was at the most brilliant in his career, he actually faded out of the entertainment circle and changed his business.
As for why he gave up his acting career, liao Weixiong revealed in a talk show many years later that the original busy filming work led to a smaller time for him to meet with his wife, and gradually the relationship between the two went wrong. In order to save his family, he thought about it again and again, and chose to leave the show business circle and do some work that he could spend more time with his family.
When he first started doing business, Liao Weixiong had invested in a number of industries, including beauty, karaoke, etc., but they were not well managed and went bankrupt. Later, he went to his wife's hometown of Malaysia to learn to become a roast chef.
In recent years, Liao Weixiong has come to the mainland and begun to farm chickens and develop organic agriculture. After several years of hard work, his agricultural business has become bigger and bigger, and his wealth has become more and more abundant, and it is said that it has exceeded 100 million.
Even if he became a billionaire, Liao Weixiong's life did not become luxurious, but as simple as ever. On weekdays, in addition to taking care of accidents in the office, he would also change into a peasant costume and help in the field.
Seriously, being able to stop his family at the peak of his career and put down the shelf to become a "farmer", Liao Weixiong is really a very admirable person. Finally, I wish him a smooth career and a happy family life in the days to come!
