In the Cantonese-speaking area, "Kangbo" Gong Jintang is a well-known national grandfather.

In 2000, this retired actor from the Guangzhou Repertory Theater was invited by Guangdong TV Station to film a movie.

Since then, Mr. Gong has taken the first step of getting out of the circle of popularity.

In Guangdong TV's self-produced sitcom "Foreign Daughter-in-Law and Local Lang", Mr. Gong played the core character in the play - Kang Bo, the head of the Kang family.

Like the benevolent Kang Bo in the play, Mr. Gong outside the play is also very easy-going and has no airs.

On weekdays, he often rides a bicycle to buy groceries and travels by subway. When

Although due to getting older, Mr. Gong has gradually faded out of the crew of "Foreign Daughter-in-Law and Local Lang" in recent years, and rarely participated in the filming.

But when he is needed, he is also willing to return to the scene.

old artists can also be revealed from this.
