Have you heard of it? The movie "Temporary Robbery", produced by Mr. Er Dongsheng and directed by Director Mai Qiguang, has been released nationwide! Among them, there is a "polite" gangster Mei Lantian, played by Aaron Kwok.
This Mei Lantian is slovenly and has buck teeth, which is full of contrast and makes people want to laugh! Brother Aaron Kwok also admitted that he has portrayed many serious characters over the years, and this role is really full of comedy, which makes him very excited.
Some friends born in the 90s and 00s may not be familiar with Aaron Kwok, but for those born in the 70s, 80s or even the early 90s, Aaron Kwok is an indispensable part of our youth! His musical compositions are passionate, his stage performances powerful, and his film roles charming. He is not only a representative figure in the Chinese music scene, but also an important symbol of Chinese pop culture.
01 won the award for playing a little character
Ever since he was admitted to the Hong Kong TVB dance training class in 1984, Aaron Kwok has been in this industry for 40 years! Over the past 40 years, he has not only brought us many classic music and film and television works, but also won countless personal awards and honors.
I think back then, Guo Tianwang relied on his peerless appearance to thrive in the Hong Kong film industry, but later he gradually realized that his appearance alone was not enough! Since the age of 40, Aaron Kwok has decided not to rely solely on his looks for a living, but to work hard to improve his acting skills! So, he took the initiative to tear off his idol baggage and accepted the fact that he was getting old and ugly!
In 2005, the movie "Sanchakou" was a big turning point in Aaron Kwok's acting career! In this movie, he not only challenged his acting skills, but also made unprecedented changes in his image! This year, Aaron Kwok also won his first Golden Horse Best Actor trophy! Later, his role as the scumbag father in "Father and Son" won him the Golden Image Best Actor again. Later "C+ Detective" and "Crime and Punishment" both brought him nominations for Golden Horse and Golden Image Best Actor.
In 2018, Aaron Kwok once again boldly challenged himself and appeared in "The Favorite" with a brand new image. The audience was deeply impressed by his acting skills and began to re-examine this actor who was once known for his handsome image.
So, Aaron Kwok is not only a good-looking person, but also a powerful actor!
02 does not lose the vitality of young people at all
Recently, Aaron Kwok also challenged the comedy genre and made the movie "Provisional Robbery". Action scenes are a piece of cake for Guo Tianwang. After all, as a singer who is good at singing and dancing, he always maintains a good physical condition!
Guo Tianwang said that he takes time to exercise every day, running and cycling. He feels that keeping in shape is also for better acting. If he needs to gain or lose weight, he can easily cope with it.
What is even more enviable is that after marrying Fang Yuan, who is 21 years younger, Aaron Kwok seems to have a second youth! There is no sense of disharmony between the two. The king is still full of energy and is not inferior to the young people at all.
So, age is not a problem, mentality is the key! Aaron Kwok proves this with his energy and enthusiasm.
03 The racing driver who was delayed by singing and movies
In addition to being a singer, dancer, and actor, Aaron Kwok also has an identity that is not well known to everyone, that is, he is a "racing driver."
Guo Tianwang has devoted himself to motorsports as early as 1997. He has been on top circuits such as Monza in Italy and Suzuka in Japan, and also established his own racing team. For him, racing is a training of will, body and mind. In August 2023, Aaron Kwok joined the Shell JK Lynk & Co Racing Team as a "special guest driver" and competed in the 2023 TCR China Zhuzhou Station and Macau Station. Another Lynk & Co driver, Ma Qinghua, the first Chinese driver to enter F1, said that he is "a good driver who is delayed by dancing and singing."
Aaron Kwok has been "challenging conventions" for 40 years since his debut and is not bound by age or traditional concepts. He used his own experience to tell us: Why not? Whether you are a singer, actor or race car driver, as long as you put your mind to it, anything is possible!
