---Wuma.
The Hong Kong film scene in the 1980s had a wave of zombie films.
Lin Zhengying and Wu Maduo played the role of the Exorcist Master in the film. Wu Ma once appeared in "Uncle Zombie" and "Exorcist Master" and other films, which impressed the audience. A fan of
once said:
"Lin Daochang is gone, now Daxia Yan is gone, and zombies and ghosts will make trouble again, no one can protect us." This also attracted the resonance of a large number of netizens, some netizens lamented There are no more zombie movies in China.
young writer Ma Boyong once said: “Probably only Lin Zhengying and Wu Ma can represent the image of Chinese exorcists.”
01
Wu Ma, formerly known as Feng Hongyuan, was born in Tianjin on May 28, 1942 and moved to Hong Kong in 1959.
The first graduate of the Shaw Film Company's Nanguo Experimental Theater Training Course, which was the predecessor of the famous TVB actor training course. Among the classmates of
, Luo Lie later became a star of the Shaw Brothers action movie, and his achievements far surpassed Wu Ma;
, but Wu Ma is hardworking and understands the principle of the stupid bird flying first. Every time he performs in the crew, he observes the props, scene notes and other crew work after the end of the play. The working status of personnel, apply what they have learned.
In 1965, he starred in "Mulan" directed by Zhang Che and Yuan Qiufeng and became famous. In 1968, he became an assistant director of "Golden Swallow" and began to try behind-the-scenes work.
In 1970, he was an assistant director for Zhang Che's "Ranger" and "Eagle King", and then independently directed "Angry Sword and Knife", completing the triple jump of actor, assistant director and director.
talked about the transition from an actor to a choreographer when he first entered the industry. Wu Ma once said frankly:
"The role I played at the time was the gangster A, B, C, and the fashion drama was the bad guy ABC, without a name. If you want to do this, you can’t. This will continue forever."
completed the career triple jump in a very short time. Wu Ma is very satisfied with his performance,
"According to normal, you must have at least two to three years of field record before you can transfer to the assistant director and do it again. You can be a director after two to three years as an assistant director. It will take at least 6 to 8 years before and after, but after I have been with Zhang Che for about two years, I can become a director by myself."
Although the debut went smoothly, Wuma’s career There has never been a big hit in the true sense. Although
has also acted in masterpieces such as "Scary Man" and "Law Enforcement Pioneer", he has never been associated with words such as "protagonist" and "star".
In the 70s and 80s of last century, Wuma also relied on his own temperament to enjoy work in a timely manner.
02
He can act, edit, direct and plan. He is a rare talent in the Hong Kong film industry.
He has made hundreds of movies in his life, but in these roles, he has almost never really acted as a leading actor.
Wuma has his own explanation for "only acting as a supporting role". He said that he is doing popular feature films and he has not entered the peak of art.
It is not that he doesn't understand the modern fashion art, but he just thinks that there is no need to deliberately pursue it and be fashionable for fashion.
has not been submerged, has not been eliminated, and still sticks to his own style, which is a happiness in itself. Although
mostly appears in film and television works as green leaves, there are many films but few awards.
But after years of hard work in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong, he has also trained himself to adapt to a variety of roles.
Therefore, this does not prevent him from being remembered by the audience. Some film critics described him as “there is no style, but Wuma’s greatest style. This also makes him act like what.”
Mainland Chinese audiences are undoubtedly impressed by him and In the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" co-produced by Leslie Cheung and Joey Wang, the bearded Yan Chixia who sang "Tao Da Dao" has also become a generation's memory.
He also won the 24th Taiwan Golden Horse Awards for Best Supporting Actor for the film.
This is the actor. The real acting, successfully shaping the image, let people see him, the first thing they think of is not his original name, but the role in the play.
Parrot Shihang (screenwriter) once said: I love "Miracle" starring him and Uncle Piao most. In the
film, Anita Mui and Jackie Chan lose their temper, saying that you treat me as a cash cow! Jackie Chan defended and turned to Wu Ma to clarify: "What do we take her for?" Wu Ma thought without thinking: "Moneymaker." After
said, he looked innocent, and that innocence was really impossible to learn. "
In the play, the role can be divided into light and heavy, but the acting skills cannot be superior or inferior.
In life, the big people have the light of the big people, and the small people have the wonderfulness of the small people. Just like Wu Ma, they play supporting roles and pay. But it is not less than anyone.
is like this, so why is there a main role?

A dedicated actor can bring infinite motivation to everyone, and is a role model for the young generation of actors.
Wu Ma once guest starred in "Lady of Need" , Starring Yu Sasha recalled:
"At that time, Mr. Wu Ma knew that life was counting down, but he was still so serious and optimistic about filming that everyone around him didn't see it. There was a scene where he was going to kneel down and get up again. I said it was really hard for you, but Mr. Wu Ma said it was okay. Compared with my filming scenes, it was not even a fur. What I think of now is the image of him singing and jumping over and over again, and jumping down the stairs when walking, like an old urchin. "
"Makeup Artist" starring Ozuo once said: "Teacher Wu Ma is very kind, especially for young actors. He usually indulges us a little bit too much, but he is very dedicated when filming, and he has his own treatment. The way of actors. For example, there was a scene where I wanted to eat raw lobster, but I couldn't make a mouthful. He came over and told me, I'll show you how to do it, and I was ashamed of it. "

"
's wife once revealed that the lung cancer had spread ten months before Wu Ma died. "His life span is very short. If he continues to undergo radiotherapy and chemotherapy, he will definitely spend it on the hospital bed. This is what he is most unwilling to do. .
In the past few months, he enjoys work and life in his best state of mind, and he has walked the last part of his life with ease. I am so comforted. He is my hero, my proud husband. "
did not express excessive sorrow in his words, but more for the courage of my husband to face death, proud and proud.
"Enjoy life in the best state of mind, and walked the last part of his life gracefully. "
