"Peng Brothers" Peng Shun and Peng Fa are famous ghost film directors in Hong Kong. The two brothers are twins. They are 58 years old this year. The elder brother Peng Shun was born 15 minutes earlier than the younger brother Peng Fa.

Perhaps everyone is more familiar with his brother Peng Shun, because he married actress Li Xinjie, and the two experienced a marital crisis. Four years after they were married, the man cheated on actress Li Yuetong, and the two were filmed kissing.

When Peng Shun got married, he had a daughter with his ex-girlfriend. After marriage, he gave birth to twin sons with Li Xinjie.

After the affair, Li Xinjie and her husband issued a joint statement, saying that they would face setbacks together.

The protagonist of today’s story is his younger brother Peng Fa. His wife is an outsider. The couple has been married for 30 years and shows love.

Mrs. Peng suffered from breast cancer more than 10 years ago and recovered under Peng Fa's care. However, she was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer in February this year. The huge medical expenses put Peng Fa under great financial pressure, even though her brother and sister-in-law helped. , were unable to help him pay for his treatment for a long time. In the end, Peng Fa owed nearly 2 million Hong Kong dollars and voluntarily filed for bankruptcy.

When interviewed by reporters, Peng Fa revealed that he just wanted to work hard and help his wife pay for her medical expenses. However, after experiencing many setbacks, he became discouraged and once intended to commit suicide with his wife.

Thinking about it later, he was not even afraid of death, so there was nothing else to worry about, so he filed for bankruptcy.

Everyone has been exposed to the works of the "Peng Brothers" to some extent, such as "Silent Fire", "Hell" series, "Wind and Cloud 2", "Child's Eye 3D" and so on.

With their unique shooting style, the Pang brothers were appreciated by foreign film companies and invited to Hollywood to shoot the Hollywood versions of "Hell" and "Bangkok Killer". After

became famous, the brothers began to try to follow their own path.

Peng Shun directed films such as "C+ Detective" and "B+ Detective", while Peng Fa directed the movie "Wrong Love".

In addition, Peng Fa was a well-known film editor in the industry before he became a director. The "Wind and Cloud" and "Infernal Affairs" series are his masterpieces. He won the Hong Kong Film Gold Medal for these two works. Like an award.

On the morning of December 19, reporters discovered that Peng Fa was outside the High Court in Admiralty, Hong Kong. During an interview, Peng Fa admitted that he applied for bankruptcy in the court because his wife was suffering from cancer, which put him in financial difficulties.

Peng Fa revealed that after his wife was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, her health gradually deteriorated. He worked to make money while taking care of his wife's daily life. He had no regrets about this.

He doesn't want to give up on his wife. Even if he spends all his savings, he still wants to give his wife a glimmer of hope for survival.

"When my wife was diagnosed, I was filming a TV series in the Mainland. I finally decided to lose money and return to Hong Kong because I was worried about something happening to her and didn't want to miss her for the last time."

They were successfully matched in Singapore. A targeted drug costs 80,000 Hong Kong dollars per month, half of which is subsidized by the government. But with other medical expenses and living expenses, it costs at least 100,000 Hong Kong dollars per month.

After the lockdown was lifted, the film industry picked up, and Peng Fa also worked hard to take on new projects. In June this year, he signed a contract with a mainland film. He planned to use the remuneration to pay for his wife's medical expenses, so he decided to let her start treatment. .

Unfortunately, the filming date of this mainland movie was continuously postponed, and he could not get paid. The income from other shooting jobs was not enough to pay for all the medical expenses, so he had to take out a loan.

Peng Fa told reporters that once the treatment started, it could not be stopped. He originally wanted to return to his old job to make money and become an editor, but unfortunately the film market did not recover and he could only receive a small amount of work.

The most miserable thing is that his work as a director does not have a fixed salary certificate, and banks cannot lend money. He can only find help from a financial company, but if he borrows 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, he can only get 85,000 Hong Kong dollars, and he has to pay back every 15 days. payment.

Peng Fa thought that when the news of filing for bankruptcy came out, creditors would come to "chasing the numbers". He emphasized to reporters that he would never "keep the numbers". After all, two million in debt is not a lot, and he hoped that the financial company could Let him take a breather and pay off his debt as soon as he gets paid for his work.

Speaking of his brother Peng Shun, Peng Fa said that both his eldest brother and his sister-in-law helped, but after all, it was difficult to take care of him in poverty. His brother also had his own family to take care of, so it was impossible to bankrupt his family to help him.

Previously, Peng Fa filmed the movie "Reborn Man" with veteran actor Zhang Siu-fai and Eric Tsang's daughter-in-law Wang Minyi. Looking at the photos from the scene, Peng Fa acted professionally and buried family difficulties deep in his heart.

Peng Fa revealed that after Zhang Siu-fai's wife learned about his plight, she took the initiative to give him a director's fee to help him solve some of his difficulties.

After treatment, Mrs. Peng's physical condition has improved and her pain has been reduced. However, recently, various pain symptoms have started to occur again, which makes Peng Fa very worried.

He said bluntly that he would not know how sick his wife was until he had a check-up at the end of December. He hoped that his wife would be brave enough to hold on, "I usually write a lot of scripts. When this happened to me, I found that many of the dialogues were really... She can speak out. Once, she was sent to the hospital urgently, and she told me to take good care of myself..."

Zhang Zhaohui said in an interview that he had known about Mrs. Peng Fa's illness for a long time, but Peng Fa would never take the initiative to mention it. economic difficulties.

In Cheung Siu-fai's impression, Peng Fa is very good to his wife. No matter whether he is filming abroad or in the mainland, as soon as the work comes to an end, Peng Fa will immediately return to Hong Kong to accompany his wife.

When chatting with other actors, Peng Fa also never left his wife. He was devoted to his wife.

Cheung Siu-fai lamented that the Hong Kong film industry is in a slump, filmmakers’ incomes have dropped, and they have encountered difficulties such as family members being sick. Life is not easy at all.
