He is the handsome and suave Yun Feiyang in "The Transformation of the Silkworm", he is the ambitious Zao Wuji in "The Military Champion Su Qier", he is the cunning and cunning Ding Chunqiu in "Tianlongbabu: Tianshan Child Mother", he is Yang Zongbao, who heroically conquers the West in "The Blue Sky", is the domineering and sinister big devil in "Water Moon Cave Sky".

Xu Shaoqiang, with his sturdy back, tall and burly figure, and his freely retractable and powerful acting skills, has dominated the film industry for more than 40 years and left a deep impression on the audience. Different from Zou Zhaolong's ferocity, Zhang Yaoyang's arrogance and Li Zixiong's insidiousness, Xu Shaoqiang's devil-like domineering temperament makes him a unique faction in the villain camp.

For a long time, the reputation and character of this hero have been extremely controversial. At that time, movie fans and audiences were divided into two groups, arguing to the point of separation, loving it to death and scolding it to death.

Since the 1970s, there has been an endless stream of black material about Xu Shaoqiang. Drinking cologne to death, abandoning Sydney, skipping tickets...the stain seems to be longer than the Great Wall.

The people are completely addicted to it, but no one pays attention to the historical facts behind it. But it's normal. Those gossips from ancient times are hidden in shabby newspapers and magazines, which predate the reform and opening up.

Today, the news came that Xu Shaoqiang, a generation of martial arts superstar, passed away from illness. I think we need a long paper to talk about Xu Shaoqiang’s past grudges...

1. If you don’t care about wine, will you drink cologne to death?

Gu Long has been addicted to alcohol since he was young. In 1977, he suffered from liver problems and his health gradually declined.

At the end of 1980, while Gu Long was having a banquet at Yinsong Pavilion in Beitou, he had a conflict with Ke Junxiong due to a misunderstanding during the toast. He was stabbed by his men and lost 2,000cc of blood. Unfortunately, he was also transfused with blood containing hepatitis, and his health worsened from then on.

Two years before his death, Gu Long had been hospitalized several times and lingered on his bedside. However, he was competitive by nature and ignored the doctor's advice to stop drinking. He still drank heavily without any taboos.

When it comes to drinking, Xu Shaoqiang is also a master. He drinks quickly and steadily. He often serves people several large glasses in a row, and drinks pure brandy with neither ice nor water until he lies down. Xu Shaoqiang and Gu Long have become close friends since they share a love of wine and often star in film and television dramas adapted from Gu Long's martial arts.

Xu Shaoqiang recalled: "He invested in his novels himself, and he looked for actors. In his mind, he hoped who could play the knight in it. He invited me over, and we got to know each other this way. I also wanted to go to his home to see how he writes, and slowly After chatting too much, we became good friends. We are close friends and drink about the same amount."

Xue Xingguo wrote in "Gu Long's Tips": "Hong Kong star Xu Shaoqiang once went to Gu Long's house and started drinking. He made a long-distance call home and told his mother that he was going to start drinking with Gu Long and that he might not be able to call home at night, so he called first so as not to worry his mother. "

In 1984, Xu Shaoqiang went to Taiwan to film "Ten Years of Lights in the Night Rain". , Gu Long is the owner of a production company. It happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival at that time, and Gu Long said to Xu Shaoqiang: "Young Qiang people are in a foreign land. Today is a festival of reunion. If you don't go back, you might as well come to my house as a guest, and I will drink with you."

After drinking for a long time, Gu Long showed signs of drunkenness and began to scold the servants and chefs. After scolding him, he thought something was wrong and apologized to Xu Shaoqiang: "I'm sorry, I was drunk and angry, I lost, that's the end of the day."

Another day, Gu Long visited Xu Shaoqiang, hoping to have a serious drink with him again. Xu Daxia replied to Gu Long with a sentence from Gu Long's novel: "The winner has won, and the loser has lost. " This sentence made Gu Long very angry.

was ridiculed by his friends, and Gu Long was very dissatisfied. Not long after, he happened to meet Xu Shaoqiang again, forgetting the doctor's advice, and dragged him to compete in drinking power again. He didn't expect that half a year later he would compete with Xu Shaoqiang again.

His marriage was on the rocks, his investment failed, and his snobbish friends gradually dispersed after he became seriously ill, which made Gu Long depressed and even more desperate for alcohol. In August, on his 47th birthday, several friends proposed celebrating his birthday and made it clear in advance that drinking was not allowed at dinner parties.

At that time, Gu Long was suffering from advanced liver cirrhosis. He had ruptured his esophagus twice and vomited nearly two basins of blood. Warning: If you drink again, you will be incurable.

More than a dozen friends gathered at the hotel, but only the birthday boy was not present. It turned out that Gu Long had already forgotten the birthday party his friends had prepared for him, and drank with several female stars at the Howard Hotel. He was so drunk that his friends felt so sad that they all sighed and left. The next day, when he sobered up, Gu Long felt sorry for waiting for his friends, so he came to apologize to him one by one and asked for a favor. As a chance to apologize, all the friends agreed to attend the banquet on time. However, when Gu Long and Yu Xiuling waited from noon until midnight, no one showed up. He opened a bottle of XO and drank it all. This caused his esophagus to rupture again and he vomited blood. He was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment by ambulance. For the last two months, he had been in an intermittently comatose state. Gu Long's death was essentially the result. Because of his inner loneliness and escape, the pressure that had accumulated for a long time made him choose to drink to drown his sorrows. His last words before his death were: "Why didn't my girlfriend come to see me?" After saying this, , Gu Daxia fell into a coma again.

On the afternoon of September 21, 1985, Gu Long, a martial arts master of a generation, passed away due to liver cirrhosis and esophageal tumor bleeding at the age of forty-seven. During the funeral, Wang Yu, Ni Kuang, Lin Qingxuan and other friends placed 48 bottles of XO wine in his coffin to accompany him. Qiaoji wrote an elegiac couplet for him -

" Xiao Li's flying knife became a dead ring, and Chu Liuxiang was not seen in the world ".

Hearing the bad news, Xu Shaoqiang said guiltily: "His death is a great loss to the martial arts world. If I had known he would die, I would not have drank with him. My friends all said that I drank Cologne to death, but in fact that was the case with him. His character was very straightforward, and I was very sad that he passed away so early. "

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention. It was precisely because of this confession that the media took it out of context and pointed the finger at Xu Shaoqiang, thinking that as a good friend, he failed to understand Gu Long and instead allowed Gu Long to fight with him, which ultimately led to an unfortunate end. For a time, there were constant scoldings on paper and online.

In fact, not only Xu Shaoqiang, but also Ke Junxiong, who had a dinner conflict with Gu Long, was also written in a big book as "the murderer who killed Gu Long". Even Ni Kuang, who blamed himself for not persuading Gu Long to put down his wine glass early, was also labeled as "he." "Putting yourself responsible for Gu Long's death".

I didn’t kill Boren, but Boren died because of me. If Gu Daxia knew that his former friend was still being slandered, attacked, and smeared, he would definitely be sad.

2. The Celestial Silkworm suddenly changed, and the ticket was delayed?

The disappearance of "Celestial Silkworm Change" has caused a storm in the city. Every time he was pushed to the forefront, it was rumored that - Sanse Tai bribed secretly to suppress his opponents; Xu Shaoqiang did not follow martial arts ethics and allowed himself to be manipulated.

However, the truth of the matter is not like this. In the early days of his career, Stephen Tsui was an actor under Shaw Brothers. However, he had been in a stable state for six or seven years. Lai's TV director, Danny Macdonald, invited him to join Lai's many times.

In the past, Shaw Brothers had lent Xu Shaoqiang to Lai's dramas many times, such as "The Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness", "The Sword of the Third Young Master", "The Real Man", etc.

When he first started filming "The Transformation of the Silkworm", Xu Shaoqiang was still a Shaw Brothers actor, and he also came to Lai's drama on loan. Initially, Lai's and Shaw Brothers agreed to only produce thirty episodes of "The Transformation of the Silkworm".

Later, McDonald saw that the series was gaining momentum, so he wanted to add thirty more episodes while the iron was hot. However, at this time, Xu Shaoqiang had already accepted other film contracts, and he was really unable to do anything else.

After "The Transformation of the Silkworm", Xu Shaoqiang quickly became famous and was constantly being robbed to make movies. He was afraid of being recognized, so he wore a mask and went to the streets; Li De chose Ye Tianxing, who had a similar figure to Xu Shaoqiang, to take the photo, but even he was so busy that he fell ill.

At that time, McDonald was afraid that Xu Shaoqiang would disappear, so he sent McDonald to hold him hostage and follow him closely around the clock, in order to make Xu Shaoqiang report to work on time. Xu Shaoqiang tried his best to get rid of Madangjie, but eventually disappeared.

The disappearance of the protagonist was really a big deal. In desperation, McDonald had no choice but to pick Gu Guanzhong from Shaw Brothers to take over. It is said that Yun Feiyang worked hard to practice the magical skill of the Heavenly Silkworm, and emerged from the cocoon into another appearance. It is reasonable to lay out the plot in this way.

Since then, negative rumors about Xu Shaoqiang have been overwhelming: he is drunk, he has disappeared, he is pretending to be a big name, he has taken bribes from TVB and deliberately groomed himself. Various versions of rumors have not been heard for forty years. stop.

Due to its great popularity, Rei temporarily increased the number of episodes of "Celestial Silkworm" from the original thirty to sixty. Isn't it going to kill people? After increasing the number of scenes, there were six sets of scenes waiting for Xu Shaoqiang to shoot every day. After shooting one set, he had to leave and go to the second set. He came later than others and left earlier than others. Colleagues thought he was playing a big role, which caused such a misunderstanding.

Xu Shaoqiang recalled: "There are rumors that I only focus on drinking and not working. In fact, no matter how hard you drink, you will never be drunk for more than two days and two nights. How could you get such a serious disappearance? It can be said that I am a very responsible actor. "It's not that I have no sense of responsibility, it's that I can't explain it to everyone. If they misunderstand, I can't help it." During this period, several burly men broke into the Golden Harvest studio and asked people to come back to Lai to film "The Transformation of the Silkworm". This incident became the trigger for the breakup of the relationship between Xu Shaoqiang and Lai.

Xu Shaoqiang was very angry about this: "I think Hong Kong is different from Taiwan, and the underworld should not be mobilized. Zheng Shaoqiu was afraid that something would happen to me, so he asked me to hide. I slapped the table on the table the next day and yelled at McDonald's, saying that if it happens again, I won't do it again. It was time to film Li’s scene. ”

Later, someone acted as a peacemaker, and Xu Shaoqiang calmed down and started filming again. But on the first day back to work, as soon as he put on his makeup, Li's administrative director Shi Nansheng came to the dressing room to find him and said that Gu Guanzhong had been replaced in "The Transformation of Silkworms" and he was no longer needed.

In this way, Xu Shaoqiang left Li’s TV station with makeup on. During that time, Wireless extended an olive branch and wanted to invite him to join the cast, but due to various reasons, it was not successful in the end. Today, Xu Shaoqiang still maintains the record of never filming a TV series.

As a producer, McDonald's hopes that actors will obey the arrangements, and it is best to be recruited quickly without any complaints. This is really human nature as a superior.

However, the electronic communication and communication channels back then were not as good as modern ones. If there were conflicts in various arrangements, it was not necessarily the responsibility of the actors alone.

Years later, in an interview with East Weekly, Xu Shaoqiang was asked again - after "The Transformation of the Silkworm", was it considered a low point in his career?

Xu Shaoqiang said frankly: "At that time, I just disappeared in Li, but I still filmed a lot of movies. Taiwan and Thailand invited me to film. The number of movies was not less, and I made a lot of money. In other words, although I was lucky, It has not continued to rise, but the general environment is still very good. The real low period for "

" should be in the late 1980s. When I couldn't make money, I had to continue to spend money. I had no way to make money quickly, so I had to sell cars. After selling Fair Lady, I sold all the valuables. I also borrowed money from Shi Tian when I was filming "Red Lips".

Regarding Xu Shaoqiang, just like the disappearance of "Celestial Silkworm", what has been continuously besieged by the masses and the media over the past forty years is his and Xue Li's emotional life.

Xu Shaoqiang has had four love experiences: his first wife Zhang Xiaofeng, his second wife He Shukuan, Judy Li who she dated for a while in Li's, and the most well-known Xue Li.

Xu Shaoqiang said bluntly: "Put all the newspapers together and count these women. What do you mean by many women? Some people can pick up five or six girls in a month."

"I write at every turn. I am a prodigal. In fact, many male stars have many girlfriends, but I freely admit what I do. They have to pay attention to the packaging image and engage in underground love. "

Four wives and five children are indeed better than ordinary people. It's a legend. Regarding his past relationship, Xu Shaoqiang said that he would tell others everything he had to say, but he did not want to affect his ex-wives.

"They (Zhang Xiaofeng and He Shukuan) have both remarried and are living a good life. You can write about me, but you can't make a fuss about them. "

At that time, Xu Shaoqiang and Xue Li went to the marriage registration office to make an appointment, but there was no divorce paper at that time. Registration is not possible. By the time he and his ex-wife finalized their divorce, Sydney would break up again. In short, the two of them are destined to be together.

I wonder if this explanation can explain the long-standing legend that "Xu Shaoqiang deliberately forgot to bring the divorce certificate and refused to marry Xue Li"?

Of course, this also proves that he had an extramarital affair with Xue Li before he divorced his ex-wife. It is undoubtedly morally wrong. However, it is not appropriate for people to add fuel to the fire and add insult to injury.

Xu Shaoqiang has always been cheerful and outgoing, and he often said that after many years of hard work in the entertainment industry, he is personally open to everything. However, what things or experiences would make him unhappy at one time?

He said without hesitation: "I'm going to separate from Sydney! At that time, my career was at a low ebb and my business failed. I was very lost and depressed. I drank every day and neglected my family.""

One day, Xue Li suddenly left with her child, and Xu Shaoqiang instantly lost everything. She wanted to break up, and he had no choice. He didn't have much to give her at the time, so he had to pretend to be cool and said:

"Anyone in that room I won’t take anything away except two pieces of clothing. " Just like that, Xu Shaoqiang took a few pieces of clothes and moved out of the house on Prince Edward Road, with only a few hundred yuan in his pocket."

After the divorce, Xu Shaoqiang did not have many opportunities to meet his children. But Xue Li often brought a pair of children out to meet Xu Shaoqiang's mother, so that the grandmother could also enjoy the happiness of her children and grandchildren.

Xu Shaoqiang recalled: "One time my daughter (daughter Xu Yingkun) chose a giant Garfield cat. Because it cost more than one thousand yuan, A Xue thought it was too expensive, so she only allowed her to buy a plush doll that cost more than three hundred yuan. She cried. My mother came back and told me that I bought the Garfield cat and asked my sister to give it to her. My daughter, Xu Yingkun, is now in the entertainment industry. , vowing to break through With the halo of parents, you can achieve something through your own efforts. Aying and her brother Weidong have both confirmed to fans that although their families have been divorced since childhood, their parents have always been very good to their children and have always been in contact.

For more than 20 years, Xu Shaoqiang has been taking good care of his two children, paying monthly fees, which is about 150,000 Hong Kong dollars a year. Cold on the outside and hot on the inside, he cherished his children very much. Knowing that they were going to immigrate with their mother, he felt conflicted: on the one hand, he was reluctant to let them leave, but on the other hand, he hoped that they could grow up in a good educational environment.

After immigrating, we get together less and stay apart more. As a father, what expensive gifts would Xu Shaoqiang buy for his children? Yes, one pen per person. Xu Shaoqiang hopes that they will improve as people there and study hard. As for the raising fees for these two children, he emphasized that he would not stop with their immigration: "I will still wire it to my mother (Sydney's mother) on a quarterly basis."

As for this relationship, the heroine Sydney has already looked away. Speaking of Xu Shaoqiang At that time, she confessed - " He is the one I like most in my life, but the personalities can't match each other. "

Xue Li said that she was indeed willful and selfish when she was young. She ignored the warnings of her sister Michelle and her mother and insisted on falling into Third party feelings. But no one is perfect, they all make mistakes, and they will take responsibility for their own choices and never regret it.

After many years of separation, the two reunited in "Celestial Silkworm Transformation" to play lovers. They still had a tacit understanding and no pressure in the play. They could still hug each other affectionately and talk and laugh happily outside the play.

Sydney even teased Xu Shaoqiang - this man is far less resentful than what people say. Xu Shaoqiang also often appears in photos with his children, and even co-stars in plays and dinners with Michelle. It can be seen that he still gets along with the Xue Li family in an open manner and there is no hatred.

Hong Kong media are accustomed to exaggerating and sharp conflicts as a gimmick to attract attention. Whenever a man and a woman break up, no matter what the reason is, no matter which party takes the initiative, even if they live in peace, regardless of whether they are in love or not, the title will always be -

"xx was dumped by xx enough" "Take off", "xx started to mess with xx but finally gave up", "xx has been played by xx for many years"...the words are inappropriate and really dwarf women, woohoo!

In fact, it is not uncommon for couples or couples to remain friends after breaking up. Although divorce and breakup indicate different personalities and values, it does not necessarily mean that they will become enemies who hate each other.

Of course, the word "cheating" does violate moral loyalty. Xu Shaoqiang's view of marriage at the time was indeed unruly and lacked a sense of responsibility.

However, first of all, both parties have paid the price for their frivolity; secondly, the relationship between two adults is spontaneous. Even if they make mistakes, it is not a public prosecution case. After all, it is difficult for an upright official to resolve household affairs.

Many people call the client a scumbag man and scumbag woman. It seems that they are filled with righteous indignation to protect their own sense of justice, but in fact they are further harming the two parties involved and their children.

Of course, there are all kinds of people in the world, and everyone has different feelings about paying attention to entertainment gossip. Moreover, the more influential little fresh meat and little flowers are springing up like bamboo shoots after the rain. Friends who are still paying attention to uncles and aunts must have some kind of intention. Historical complex.

Real movie fans hope to see a relatively objective truth so as to understand the past events of Hong Kong artists; but what about the gossips? They just need a carrier to curse a few words and prove that they live better than others to achieve self-happiness.

No matter what it is, you are done, just believe what you believe.
