Recently, a netizen from Dalian accidentally met the former movie star Ti Lung in a tea restaurant while traveling in Hong Kong. This netizen plucked up the courage to come up and say hello. Unexpectedly, Di Long responded very kindly and even took a group photo together. It is said that Hong Kong celebrities are very down-to-earth, and you can often meet celebrities traveling on the street. But many times celebrities also care about their privacy very much and don't want to be disturbed. It's rare to find someone as kind as Di Lung!
In the photo, 77-year-old Dillon is wearing a blue work-style jacket with several layers of clothes underneath. It seems that the weather is quite cold. Although Dillon's hairline has receded to the back of his head and the hair on the top of his head is as thin as a braised egg, his face is still handsome and energetic.
Moreover, in order to send out Chinese New Year red envelopes to netizens, Di Long chased him twice, which is also very rare. Many people said that Ti Lung is their idol and the red envelopes are always sincere no matter how big they are! Presumably Ti Lung also wants to use his enthusiasm to contribute to Hong Kong’s cultural tourism industry!
He was once a representative actor in Shaw Brothers movies. He was also one of the first generation of male stars to become nationally famous for his good looks. He was known as "the most beautiful boy in Hong Kong". However, Di Long was not satisfied with the achievements brought by his appearance. As his acting skills continued to improve, he won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor for his outstanding performance in the movie "A Better Tomorrow". In the movie, the image of Ti Lung's "big brother" is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he can be called a classic character in the hearts of a generation.
Despite the honor, Dillon did not become superior. On the contrary, he has always maintained a down-to-earth attitude towards life. In the past few years, he personally went to the mainland to film the rural drama "Country Love 11". In this drama, he played the role of a Hong Kong rich man, showing off his diverse acting skills. And he humbly accepted teacher Zhao Benshan's guidance on acting without any pretense of being a movie star.
In recent years, Ti Lung has actively entered the mainland market and participated in many film and television works, including the romantic fantasy film "Big Fish" and the online drama "Grand Hotel Legend". Although it is not a big production, it is not a work that can attract popularity. But Ti Lung is still working hard on filming. After all, Ti Lung has long looked down on supporting roles!
As early as 2002, Ti Lung was willing to act as co-star for Leo Ku, who was also from Hong Kong. At that time, Huang Ama starred in "Huan Zhuge Ge 3". Although she did not surpass Zhang Tielin, she also performed well. The reason why Ti Lung often comes to film mainland dramas may also be related to the dispute with TVB in his early years.
Ti Lung signed a contract with Shaw Brothers Film Company and gradually became popular. But when Shaw Brothers' movies declined and employees turned to TVB one after another, Ti Lung had a dispute with the company because he only wanted to make movies and not TV series, and was terminated from his contract. Many years later, Ti Lung reconciled with TVB for the sake of his son, who was also an actor and worked in TVB.
Di Lung’s married life is also very happy. His wife Tao Minming is also an actor. The two met and fell in love when they were 14 years old and got married when they were 19 years old. After marriage, they have been in love and have children. For the sake of his family and children, Ti Lung has been working hard and constantly filming film and television projects. His son Tan Junyan also inherited his father's business and started filming in TVB.
Thanks to his efforts, his son Tan Junyan also won the TVB TVB Award for "The Truth about Changing Life" in 2022, becoming a leader of the new generation in the entertainment industry. At that time, Ti Lung also attended the TVB Star Awards Ceremony in person to witness.
Overall, Ti Lung is a very grounded and real actor. He has always maintained his love for life and persistent pursuit of his acting career, constantly challenging himself and surpassing himself. His acting works and charisma are deeply loved and respected by the audience. Finally, we sincerely wish Mr. Di Long good health and a happy family, and look forward to him bringing us more excellent works!
