Xu Shaoxiong held a grand wedding for his daughter, who did not step into the showbiz, but opened several chain restaurants by herself and became the boss.
Hui Shaoxiong hosted two wedding receptions for his daughter, one in Singapore and one in Hong Kong, and although her boyfriend was just an ordinary bank clerk, the wedding still caused a sensation in the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry.
The grandeur of this Hong Kong wedding is amazing, the groom not only invited many well-known artists who are active on the screen, but what is even more surprising is that Xu Shaoxiong actually invited some old TVB stars who rarely appear, such as Xuanxuan, Ouyang Zhenhua and Miao Qiaowei, it is really a star-studded feast.
These stars are rare to see, so many netizens said that Xu Shaoxiong once again showed everyone his good strength by holding this wedding. This simple wedding reception is like a TVB anniversary celebration.
Fans of the drama have said that this event is much more exciting than TVB's anniversary, as if they have seen a preview of a new drama that is about to be released. People who don't know much about the Hong Kong entertainment industry are surprised by Xu Shaoxiong's ability, how can he invite most of the stars in the Hong Kong entertainment industry to attend his daughter's wedding?
Although some people jokingly refer to Xu Shaoxiong as a resident supporting role in TVB, the actor's family background is quite prominent. His grandfather was once the adopted son of the Empress Dowager Cixi.
Xu Shaoxiong's grandfather was not a relative of the emperor, nor did he make great contributions to the country when he was young, but he was able to ride a horse in the Forbidden City, because he was the righteous son of the Empress Dowager Cixi, and he was also a first-class **.
In the society at that time, only a very few people could enjoy this privilege, but Xu Shaoxiong's grandfather was able to obtain this honor, which shows his high status.
The strength of Xu Shaoxiong's family should not be underestimated, not only the rich family foundation left by his grandfather, but also the good economic foundation of his father's generation, which makes their respective developments very smooth.
He was born into a prestigious family, his uncle was the principal of the Whampoa Military Academy, and the other was the director of the Guangzhou Education Bureau. His father focused on jade research and started his own jade business.
At that time, the jade business was rarely involved, but when done well, it was lucrative. Therefore, Xu Shaoxiong has lived a privileged life since he was a child and received a high-quality education.
Xu Shaoxiong has a strong family background, and after becoming an actor, he was the first person in the crew to drive a Mercedes-Benz. Although he was not the protagonist at the time, he often played a supporting role and drove a Mercedes, while the main actor could only ride a bicycle.
This stark contrast shows Xu Shaoxiong's wealth.
Xu Shaoxiong is not only wealthy in his family, but also has a deep connection with the cultural circle. His aunt is Mr. Lu Xun's wife Xu Guangping.
Xu Shaoxiong is a distant relative of Mr. Lu Xun, and although Lu Xun and Xu Guangping are no longer alive, Xu Shaoxiong still maintains contact with Lu Xun's descendants. He once shared a photo with Lu Xun's eldest grandson Zhou Lingfei through social **.
Why is Xu Shaoxiong not satisfied with the arrangement of fate, but chooses the difficult career of an actor?In fact, Xu Shaoxiong became an actor by chance. Due to his family's wealth, he lived a carefree life since he was a child.
After graduating from secondary school, Xu Shaoxiong had no interest in studying, and his father advised him to give up his studies and start studying the jade business to take on the burden of the family as soon as possible.
Although he was a little uncomfortable at first, under the guidance of his father, he gradually mastered the skills of this business and gradually adapted to this lifestyle.
At that time, Hong Kong TVB came to prominence, and Hui Shaoxiong was eager to try and signed up for the selection. In this way, he made his debut on stage in his 20s. However, he didn't feel nervous when he stepped on stage, but enjoyed the feeling of being noticed.
After participating in the show, he actively pursued his dream of entering the entertainment industry. Finally, in the second year of its debut, the Hong Kong Wireless Training Course was officially established. Xu Shaoxiong did not hesitate to sign up for the first Hong Kong Wireless Artist Training.
In the initial stage of the acting career, Hong Kong TVB does not have strict requirements for artists, unlike the current entertainment industry, which only looks at appearances. Therefore, although Xu Shaoxiong's appearance barely passed, his love for acting and his constantly honed acting skills enabled him to successfully graduate from the wireless artist training class.
He successfully joined the veteran TVB. Due to his unoutstanding appearance, he has been playing more mature roles since he entered TVB, and they are all supporting roles. In the 83 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he is the smart Zhu Cong;In "The Condor Heroes", he played the hated and ruthless valley lord Gongsun Zhi.
Gongsun Zhi, played by Xu Shaoxiong, raised his eyebrows, his face was fierce, and he was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In his acting career, he has created many roles in Jin Yong's martial arts dramas, and each one is appropriate.
In film and television dramas, there is only one protagonist, and there can be many supporting roles, but there are very few supporting roles who can be remembered by the audience with their excellent performances like Xu Shaoxiong.
In addition to participating in Jin Yong's martial arts dramas, Xu Shaoxiong also starred in many modern dramas. As long as we are familiar with film and television works, we can almost see Xu Shaoxiong's wonderful performances.
He has played important roles in many film and television works such as "Macau Vice", "Dark War", "Laughing at the Storm", among which the most well-known role is the "Brother Huanxi" played in "Apostle Walker".
The influence of this character is so great that in real life, people often refer to him as "Brother Huanxi", which has become a popular mantra.
The TVB actor Xu Shaoxiong has participated in more than 200 productions, but has never played the leading role. Some questioned whether he was unwilling or incompetent, but in reality it was not.
Xu Shaoxiong once mentioned in an interview that it is very hard to be the protagonist, and he needs to arrive on the set early and leave at the latest. In contrast, the supporting characters have less pressure to work and only have to complete part of the task.
In addition, the income of the actor is not high.
He had a career in acting that lasted for several years, and his salary at the beginning was only a few thousand yuan. Therefore, in a period when the salary is generally not high, there is not much difference between playing the leading role and the supporting role.
Moreover, he has participated in more than 200 works, compared to the other leading actors who may even count on one hand.
In addition, there is also the benefit of being a supporting actor, which is that he has participated in more than 200 productions, has worked with almost all the actors in Hong Kong, whether they are senior or new, he has made connections, so it has also accumulated a certain amount of network resources for him.
The joining of these stars has attracted much attention to the wedding of Brother Huanxi's daughter, once again confirming his strong connections and strength. However, a large number of celebrities does not necessarily mean that their character is loved.
In the mainland entertainment industry, there are also some artists like Xu Shaoxiong, who have extensive connections and maintain good relationships with many friends. However, when Yang Di hosted Weibo Microvision recently, in order to show his connections, he appeared too public, but he was criticized by netizens for not being low-key.
On the contrary, many people were reluctant to associate with him.
Xu Shaoxiong is unique in that he is able to maintain a wide network in the entertainment industry, not only because of the many actors he has worked with, but also because he is respected for his moral character.
Take his marriage to his wife as an example, you can see his way of dealing with the world.
When Xu Shaoxiong met his current wife, she was already married and had a son. However, Xu Shaoxiong did not have any worries about this, he accepted their mother and son, and treated his wife and ex-husband's children as his own and cultivated them carefully.
In the end, his wife gave birth to a pair of children for him, so that Xu Shaoxiong could have a happy family.
He did his best to give the best for the children. After his daughter's academic success, he generously offered to start a business**. In getting along with friends in the entertainment industry, he is also generous and selfless.
He always did not hesitate to lend a hand, and this noble quality has allowed him to have many friends. As the famous actress Zhang Kaili said: "An actor's character is very important, and once he misbehaves, his works will not be loved by the public."
To mix in the entertainment industry, you not only need an impressive face, but also a good character. After all, the eyes of the audience are bright, and they will judge your personality by your actions.
