At the 42nd Hong Kong Film Awards, Tony Leung Chiu-wai won the Best Actor for six times and became a legend in the film industry. Yu Xiangning was a hit and won the Best Actress. In addition, there was also a "big favorite" nomination The candidate was expected to win the award.
He is David Chiang, who won the Best Supporting Actor for "Under the Sun".
This award is very hard-won, because it is the first time David Chiang has been shortlisted for the Academy Awards in his 72 years in the industry, and it is also the first time he has won the award in more than 50 years. The moment Xile Lin announced that he had won the award, the audience stood up and applauded. !
He mentioned on the stage, "My eldest brother Qin Pei and I filmed a film in which my younger brother was the producer or director, and we won the Best Supporting Actor. One of us had to do the 'epileptic' one and the other the 'silly' one." ”
then mentioned his wife, “I want to give this award to my wife today because this year marks my 50th wedding anniversary. She said she wanted to be low-key, so I will give this award to her in the most low-key way. She, I love you.”
’s words moved all the filmmakers at the scene. He said: “Actually, it doesn’t matter whether I win an award or not, because I have to make movies and make every movie with my heart. This was my thought when I first won an award more than fifty years ago. Decades later, I discovered that awards are actually quite important to an actor. In addition to being recognized by others, I also give them to myself. My own affirmation. After decades, I have only had one job in my life, which is that of a filmmaker! Movies have given me everything, given me family, given me friends, and given me everything. If there is a second I still hope to continue to be a filmmaker."
In the end, he looked up to the sky emotionally with the award and said "Thank you, director" in Mandarin, thanking his mentor Chang Cheh, "without whom there would be no me."
David Jiang’s speech on stage was actually quite informative.
The eldest brother and younger brother he mentioned are Qin Pei and Er Dongsheng respectively.
What he meant by "crazy" was that in 1986, Qin Pei participated in Er Dongsheng's first production as director "The Story of a Mad Man" and won the Best Actor at the 6th Hong Kong Film Awards. Protagonist Award.
When I say "silly", I refer to David Jiang's own role in "Under the Sun". He plays a demented old man, and the producer of "Under the Sun" is also his younger brother Er Dongsheng.
In addition, his younger brother Ye Dongsheng is also the chairman of the Hong Kong Film Awards Association. In recent years, he wanted to step down but could not find a suitable candidate and no one was willing to take over.
Not to mention that it was because of Er Dongsheng that David Jiang had the opportunity to win the award. These three brothers each have the same surname, and they have their own areas of expertise in the film and television industry. Especially David Jiang, who mentioned that he won the award more than 50 years ago. In 1970, David Chiang won the Best Actor Award at the Asian Film Festival for his movie "Revenge". At that time, David Chiang was only 23 years old. He was the youngest "Best Actor" winner at the Asian Film Festival and the first Hong Kong film to win this award. star.
It can even be said that he is Hong Kong's first "actor". Because of winning this award, Jiang Dawei was instantly in the limelight and became a very popular "top" actor at that time. His handsome appearance fascinated countless girls.
And the director of this "Revenge" is Zhang Che who David Jiang thanked in Mandarin. David Jiang's transformation from a little stand-in on the set to a big star was all due to Director Chang Cheh's "discerning eye" and his single-handed promotion.
At that time, martial arts movies were popular, and Chang Cheh’s favorite general Wang Yu left. In order to promote a new generation of male protagonists, Chang Cheh also specially created the movie "Youxia Er" for David Jiang. At that time, everyone's favorite movie stars were tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but Jiang Dawei was thin and small. Director Chang Cheh combined his characteristics and highlighted his innocent eyes and a bit of evil charm in the role.
In current terms, he is also the ancestor of "evil, charming and crazy".
In order to make the film more interesting, Chang Cheh also paired up with Jiang Dawei, a beautiful boy called Ti Lung. This couple was also the ancestor of cp, which made the young girls in those days stumble to death.It's a pity that the cooperative relationship is too deep, but it is easy to have grudges over various trivial matters. Later, David Chiang and Ti Lung did not share the same screen for a long time, but many people came up with a long article about the film industry...
Ti Lung and Chiang David Let’s not talk about it for the time being. In short, David Jiang’s success is indeed inseparable from director Chang Cheh’s painstaking cultivation. Therefore, after more than 70 years in the industry, David Jiang thanked the director on stage. That moment was really touching.
But having said that, he did not win any more awards in the film industry, so it would take more than fifty years to win his second award. This was also related to David Chiang’s personality.
In the year when he just won the Best Actor, David Jiang met Li Linlin as a bridesmaid at a friend's wedding. Li Linlin is also an actor. She acted in many movies in her early years. After the 1970s, she joined TVB. Her representative work is "A Thousand Thousand Hearts" "Knot". Li Linlin had known David Jiang's family for a long time. However, David Jiang was quite rebellious when he was a child and didn't like to stay at home. As a result, Li Linlin didn't see David Jiang when she went to his house. As a result, at a friend's wedding, the two fell in love at first sight.
In 1974, Li Linlin was pregnant, and David Jiang happily announced his marriage. At that time, his career was still on the rise, but he said that he was "not an idol" and that after getting married, it would not affect his filming. He was too lazy to deal with external controversies, so he chose a May 20 date to register.
After getting married, David Jiang's "enterprise ambition" was not so strong. I wonder if it was because his wife and brother Qin Pei had worked in TVB. He also joined TVB to act in TV series. Even Yi Shu, who admired David Jiang very much, couldn't bear it. He kept writing comments saying that David Chiang was happy-go-lucky, so much so that he could watch Asia's Best Actor at home by turning on the TV for free.
“After leaving Chang Cheh, his body left his mind. David Jiang did not have any good dramas after that, but he was a careless and undisciplined person. He acted on TV when he had TV, and wandered around when he didn’t have acting. He was not serious about his future. "
But David Jiang doesn't care about this. He grew up on the set. Like his eldest brother Qin Pei, he basically doesn't pick roles and doesn't value the so-called "position". They really just love filming, no matter what. It doesn't matter whether it's in movies or TV series. I'm very happy when there are scenes to film.
So in the many years in the television industry, David Jiang has also contributed many classic roles.
For example, Huang Yaoshi in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Nine Yin Manual" is both good and evil.
In "Goodbye My Wife", he played a philandering husband, and he did well in the "coward" track, breaking away from the inherent interpretation mode of previous costume dramas.
There is also the more interesting "The Father-in-law Leaves the Palace". David Jiang also acted funny and natural. By the way, there is also Cao Yonglian in it. He is the husband of David Jiang's eldest daughter Jiang Yilan. The father-in-law and son-in-law both star in the same drama. The whole family is really together. He is a dramatist.
In "Rooftop Love", David Jiang also played the role of the elderly male protagonist Prodigal Son, because the outside world always said that he was very similar to Jay Chou when he was young - it can be seen that David Jiang is also very happy to play tricks with young people.
With so many "indoor" works and superb acting skills, David Jiang can confidently say, "I believe that today's audiences will not call me David Jiang."
And this time he appeared in "Under the Day", David Jiang also wants to contribute to Hong Kong movies. He feels that he is not very good, "but we try our best."
Moreover, the role in "Under the Day" is different from the various gentleman-type fathers or various bosses he played in TVB in the past. He needs to change his well-maintained image and add many age spots and wrinkles, so David Jiang "goes all out" to act regardless of his image. He doesn't have to touch up his makeup every day when he starts working, so he is very happy acting.
After such an experience, when he said, "I have only had one job in my life," it was really touching.
always said that the entertainment industry is a big dyeing vat, with good and bad people mixed together. If you are lucky, you will naturally become popular, but what happens after you reach the top? How should we take the next step?
Qin Pei, Jiang Dawei and Er Dongsheng have all demonstrated a different path. They have all embarked on the road of flowering, and they have transformed very naturally. Qin Pei became a "dad professional", and Er Dongsheng changed from a "little fresh meat" "Becoming a serious director, David Jiang has gone from being the first Best Actor to playing various supporting roles in TV series. The only thing that remains unchanged is their infinite love for the film and television industry and drama.
Only by being passionate, down-to-earth and professional can we continue to produce good works and win the respect of everyone. This kind of work attitude is always worth learning from the young people in your circle. Those little fresh-faced little flowers who have no acting skills but still want to play big names and water ski, take a closer look at the big guys.
