. Because of his lack of handsome appearance, he plays some gag harlequins most of the time in the movie. His clumsy image and funny performance often make the audience laugh. Although there is no red and purple, he is like a star that is not bright enough, but it can always hang in the sky.
He is a generation of laughter-Xu Guanying
