fresh meat niches every year, once in a century, and Andy Lau.
According to incomplete statistics, Andy Lau has participated in more than 180 movies, with 140 or 50 starring roles. This doesn’t even count the TV series in which it was performed. Although
has so many works, every one of them is still never bored. When there are new movies, I can't help but watch them as soon as possible. Why does
have such a big addiction to his works? Come, listen to me tease:
① Idol from youth! The first generation of Hong Kong King who grew up with
I will always remember how envious Wu Qianlian was when I watched "Heavenly Love". Wearing a wedding dress, sitting on Andy Lau in a white suit, galloping in the night of the city.
It was a scene that once appeared in a dream, but seeing her and Andy Lau in the film realize it together, why not make people envy and hate?
"Heaven If Love" is a movie released in 1990, 29 years ago. In the film, the underworld youth Hua Zi and the rich lady Jojo fell in love. Almost, Wu Qianlian in a wedding dress married Andy Lau. But in the end, Hua Zi and the black forces died together. In the
movie, Andy Lau is called Huadi. That year, he was 29 years old. That is not the first image of Andy Lau from the memory of youth, but it is the one with deep memory.
In my heart, he is an idol that came from youth and the first generation of Hong Kong king who grew up with us. There are still many youths that belong to Andy Lau in those memories.
For example, in "The Legend of Condor Heroes" starring Chen Yulian in 1983, he was Yang Guo. In "The Deer Tripod" in 1984, he was Kangxi.
is even more on the big screen, with "Unstoppable Love" starring Wen Bixia, "Jianghu Qing", "Five Lucky Stars" series, and Wah Tsai in the 1988 "Carmen in Mong Kok" directed by Wong Kar Wai.
It is from this movie that Andy Lau's "Hua Tsai" has become famous all over the world.
started acting in a TV series in 1981 and a movie in 1982. Andy Lau has been in film and television for 38 years. He came from his youth and accompanied our youth growth. Now, we have gone through youth, he is nearly 60 years old.
Today, we can still see him on the screen, he has never stopped.
② The spirit of diligence, dedication, and high moral character inspires people
This is Andy Lau's hard work and dedication. Since I learned about stars and idols, the most diligent star in my impression, or the most dedicated and hardworking actor, is Andy Lau.
In terms of diligence and dedication, Andy Lau is absolutely second to none in music or film circles. He has too many awards and honors to be advertised, but it seems that he has put all this in the past, leaving behind year after year, almost never stopped works and roles.
In the industry, Andy Lau has the title of "Desperate Thirteen Langs", and some people directly call him "Liu Shisan". This title originated in 1995. That year, Andy Lau's company founded by himself almost went bankrupt with a huge loss at that time. The loss of more than 40 million yuan almost dragged down Andy Lau. When
was almost desperate, Xiang Tai Chen Lan loaned Andy Lau 40 million to help him tide over the difficulties, because he believed in his character and didn’t even hit the IOU. Later, Andy Lau went crazy and took over 13 movies within a year. .
a few years earlier, he even made 60 films in 5 years:
1988, 10 films, 1989 16 films, 1990 11 films, 1991 9 films, 1992 14 films, 5 years he A total of 60 movies have appeared, and most of them are starring actors. In addition to repaying debts as soon as possible, these works have also allowed him to accumulate more popularity and reputation in the industry, step by step ascending the throne of the king. While
has accumulated popularity in his works, Andy Lau's reputation for character has also grown in the circle. There are a lot of Andy Lau's ways of dealing with people in the
entertainment circle. A photographer followed his road show. In the second year, he will remember the other's surname.
Zhang Weijian almost went bankrupt during the financial crisis, and Andy Lau asked him to sign a contract for the filming and gave him a check to tide over the storm.
Lin Jiadong has always been Andy Lau's cherished brother. In many of Andy Lau's plays, we can see him. As Hua Tsai's queen supporting actor, he finallyIn the 36th Hong Kong Film Awards, he won the actor, and there is a lot of support and encouragement from Andy Lau.
Reliance on justice, help colleagues, and support younger generations. As long as he can, Andy Lau is almost willing to lend a helping hand. Nowadays, many people succeed more or less because they have received his help, guidance and blessing.
has developed himself in the entertainment industry, film and television songs, and has been immersed for nearly 40 years. He can still accumulate so many good reputations. It can be seen that he gets along with others in his usual life and is deeply popular.
③ From adolescence to middle age, acting has become more and more fascinating.
An idol from youth, a valuable role model, can make people never get tired of his drama, except for his spiritual appreciation and nostalgia In addition to feelings, there is no less acting.
played those little people when he was young, and began to develop his film career and starred in more than 100 movies. Andy Lau's acting skills have also increased with the increase in the number of works.
If we can still see a little lack of grasp of the role and youthfulness in those old films of Andy Lau, then his acting skills have begun to show diversified and multi-level appearances in adult, middle-aged and up to now.
In Ruochen's view, starting with "The Story of 500 Million Inspector Lei Luo" in 1991, Andy Lau has made a breakthrough in his acting skills.
In fact, as early as 1991 in "The Story of 500 Million Inspector Lei Luo", Andy Lau's acting skills already had amazing strength. In this movie, he plays from young to old. In addition to the age span and status of the characters before and after, Andy Lau also has a precise grasp of the identity of the characters in that era, and the emotional reactions to different characters in the play. Very appropriate sense of measure.
1996 "New Shanghai Beach" is also remarkable. Ding Li, played by Andy Lau, has a different character, role positioning, and fate than Xu Wenqiang played by Leslie Cheung. Andy Lau’s performance in the film shows us that an aspiring young man has the ambition and confidence to dominate the king.
and later "Black Gold", "Gamblers", "Ahu", "Single Man and Woman", "Love the King as a Dream", "Infernal Affairs", "Ambush on the Ten Sides", "Mo Attack", "Lost Orphan"... Andy Lau is always challenging himself, challenging different roles, and experiencing different lives... From his film empire, you can almost see the ever-changing projections of life, and his performances have become more proficient and more difficult. Reveal traces.
I often go back to these movies again, looking for the shadow of my father, the shadow of my son, my husband, lovers, enemies, friends...
He used his acting skills to enhance the sense of substitution of the role, let Every time I watch Andy Lau's movies, there are new experiences that people will never tire of.
