Wan Ziliang, the once peerless "big brother in Hong Kong", is now full of twists and turns and ups and downs, but he still exudes the light of perseverance and love.
Looking back, Wan Ziliang's acting career is like a moving movie, from the beautiful boy in "The Sword of the Three Young Masters", to the Taiwan Golden Horse Award nomination in "Men and Women", and then to "Waiting for the Dawn" with Chow Yun-fat, he played one unforgettable role after another at the peak of Hong Kong cinema. He and Chow Yun-fat have become representatives of the Hong Kong film Dabei era, although both of them play bad guys, but netizens feel Chow Yun-fat's kindness and Wan Ziliang's true ruthlessness.
However, after the glory of his career, Wan Ziliang's life had twists and turns. The romance with 19-year-old Deng Cuiwen caused a sensation, and the two were once infatuated, but eventually parted ways because of a public apology. This relationship has also become an indelible memory in Wan Ziliang's life. Subsequently, he married Tian Niu, slowed down his career, and turned his focus to his family. However, the twists and turns in his career, the poor management of investment, the conflict with TVB, and the divorce from Tian Niu made him fall into a trough.
Despite the difficulties, Wan Ziliang did not give up his love for life. He made a comeback in the movie "97 Crazy Boys", leaving the audience with the last image of "big brother". However, the troubles of health problems and the ups and downs of his career made him gradually fade out of the audience's field of vision.
At the same time, Chow Yun-fat showed an unusual physical and mental state. In the 2024 Hong Kong Marathon, he completed the half marathon at the age of 68, demonstrating the power of hard work and perseverance. In an interview, Chow Yun-fat modestly emphasized that hard work is the most important thing, and did not pay much attention to luck.
Comparing the two superstars, one can't help but think: Did Chow Yun-fat already give the right answer to life? In his insistence on running, we seem to see a kind of open-mindedness and positivity towards life. Wan Ziliang, on the other hand, chose to regain his strength in a difficult moment, accepted invitations to commercial performances and concerts, and showed his undiminished enthusiasm all over the country. He may no longer be the big brother he was when he was young, but once he sings, he can still resonate and applaud from the audience.
Wan Ziliang's life trajectory is like a movie with ups and downs. In the county where he lives with his second wife, he seems to have found new support to lean on. Commercial acting to support his family, participating in "The Sun of the Years" to announce his comeback, all of this shows his repositioning of himself and his indomitable career. cooperated with his ex-wife Tian Niu again, relieved each other in "Jade Pearl", and blessed each other, which added a touch of warmth to his life.
Perhaps life is a journey, with honors and troughs, laughter and tears. Wan Ziliang's life experience tells us that no matter what kind of difficulties we encounter, we must maintain our love for life and the pursuit of our dreams. In this world, everyone is a unique movie, and Wan Ziliang uses his perseverance to interpret his own story.
In "The New King of Comedy", which he was once invited to participate in, he declined many times, showing strict requirements for his role. A year later, however, he made unexpected cameo appearances in "The Bounty" and "The Wheat Passerby", which may be an openness to new attempts. This also makes people wonder if Wan Ziliang ushered in a "revival" that belongs to him in the second half of his life.
In this ever-changing entertainment industry, the tastes and preferences of the audience are constantly changing. Wan Ziliang, although he lost his demeanor and his figure was fat and out of shape, he dared to try and start again, this courage and persistence may be more touching than the handsome face of the year.
Life is like a movie, and Wan Ziliang is the leading actor with perseverance, acting out a moving story of perseverance, hard work and love. Maybe he is not a "marathon master" like Chow Yun-fat, but he uses his own way to play the melody of life on the stage, showing the world a spirit that is not afraid of time and difficulties.
In general, Wan Ziliang's current situation may not be as brilliant as Chow Yun-fat, but he still insists on pursuing his dreams on the journey of life. Perhaps each of us can draw some strength from his experience, bravely face the ups and downs of life, not afraid of the passage of time, and deduce our own wonderful life with sincere emotions and unremitting efforts.
