Speaking of Hong Kong star Li Zixiong, friends who like to watch Hong Kong films should know. Some time ago, he went to Harbin in Northeast China to experience the local customs and culture, and personally killed pigs with a knife.
He was born in TVB and has left wonderful performances in classic film and television works many times, like"The True Color of Heroes", "Looking for Qin", "A Chinese Ghost Story 2".and"Dark War".Wait a minute.
In these film and television dramas, the villain roles he played impressed the audience without exception, and he can be said to be a "villain professional".
Although his out-of-the-circle works have rarely appeared in recent years, his status in the entertainment industry is still very important. This is not only because of his excellent acting skills, but also because he has a wide network in the circle and is very popular.
Because Li Zixiong is very low-key and has few scandals, the outside world does not know much about his real life.
It wasn't until everyone saw him record his ordinary life with a short ** that everyone found out that he had married Fatimah Yaqi, who was once known as the "military art school flower".
The two also have a son, due to the difference between him and his sonHe was 59 years old, which is different from his wife23 years old, this "strange but warm" family is in the spotlight.
Today, we're going to talk about him"TVB" queen villain".The story!
In 1959, Li Zixiong was born in an ordinary family in Hong Kong.
There are 9 children in the family, and Li Zixiong is the eighth. Li Zixiong has 4 older brothers, 3 older sisters, and 1 younger brother below.
The burden of life made the family even more strained, so Li Zixiong and his siblings suffered from poverty from an early age.
In those days, in order to support the whole family, Li Zixiong's father worked hard in the city all year round and rarely had time to go home.
So he became a left-behind child from an early age, although his father would give him a dime of pocket money every time he came home.
In those days of material scarcity, this was already a lot of wealth, and it was enough to buy many delicious biscuits.
But, deep down, he would have preferred that his father would stay at home.
When Li Zixiong was a child, his living conditions were difficult, and he couldn't eat enough and wear warmth, let alone new clothes. The clothes at home were all worn by his brothers before it was his turn, and when he got his hands, it was already tattered, patches and patches.
When he was in junior high school, his family's financial situation was even worse. My parents are over 60 years old and are not in good health.
He saw it in his eyes, and it hurt in his heart. In order to reduce the burden on his family, he decided to drop out of school and go to work to supplement his family.
He was not afraid of hardship or tiredness, and chose the manual work of carrying sacks at customs.
Because Li Zixiong is tall and handsome. So when he was at work, he was accidentally discovered by a talent scout and invited him to shoot an advertisement.
This is also the first time that Li Zixiong has earned money by relying on his "face".
So, he began to be fascinated by acting and hoped to follow the path of an actor.
In 1982, he entered the Hong Kong TVB Artist Training Camp, andTony Leung, Stephen Chow, Tang Zhenyeand others became classmates.
However, his studies at the artist training camp made him realize that he had a fear of the camera and acting. He was afraid that he would not be able to work as an actor, so he chose to change careers and become a bank clerk.
In 1985, Li Zixiong, who was working as a clerk in a bank, received a ** from director Tsui Hark.
It turned out that the director at that timeJohn WooA movie is being made"The True Color of Heroes"., but I can't find anyone who can play the villain"Tan Cheng".of actors.
Just when he was at a loss, Tsui Hark saw an advertisement taken by Li Zixiong on the side.
He felt that Li Zixiong's appearance looked loyal on the outside and ruthless on the inside, which was very suitable for the role, so he found Li Zixiong.
After thinking about it, Li Zixiong decided to try it out, after all, the life of the bank every **9 to 5 is also very boring.
It was this audition that made a dramatic change in Li Zixiong's acting career.
At that time, he changed several sets of clothes during the audition, but did not get a positive answer from the director, and only asked him to go home and wait for news.
Just when he thought he hadn't been selected, 3 days later, he actually received the selection of the crew, and in this way he successfully played the villain Tan Cheng.
After arriving at the crew, Li Zixiong found that the leading actors of this film were all big names who were smash hits in Hong Kong at that time.
Leslie Cheung, Chow Yun-fat, Dillon, Zeng Jiang, etc., all living big stars stand in front of them and play with themselves.
Because Li Zixiong is very unconfident in front of the camera, he always can't play the feeling of a bad guy. After Fa Ge saw it, he comforted him carefully and instructed him how to find his feelings.
Later, through many days of hard work in the crew, Li Zixiong vividly interpreted Tan Cheng, a complex and multi-faceted villain.
He was also nominated for "Best Newcomer" and "Best Supporting Actor" at the Hong Kong Film Awards, as well as "Best Supporting Actor" at the Golden Horse Awards.
It was also this award that made Li Zixiong more determined to take the road of being an actor.
After that, many crews came to invite the play.
A series of film and television dramas such as "City Special Police", "Ruan Lingyu", "Wesley's Old Cat", "Heaven and Earth Boy", "Fire Ambition", "Looking for Qin" and so on have appeared frequently.
Although there are many film and television dramas, the most impressive thing for the audience is those villains.
For example, Ye Yongchang, who is also loyal and traitorous in "The Man of Heaven and Earth", Zhao Mu, a traitor in "Looking for Qin", Gao Yu, a traitor in "Water Margin", and the general Yu Wenhua in "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty".
Especially in the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story 2", the role of "Zuo Qianhu" is still an unsurpassed classic.
"I have mistakenly believed in demons and killed loyal and righteous men by mistake, and today I will fight with him to atone for my crimes. I don't go to hell, who does".
I believe that many friends are familiar with this line, and "the strongest Zuo Qianhu" has become a hot stalk on the Internet.
After a successful career, Li Zixiong also ushered in the first marriage in his life.
In 1994, Li Zixiong and actorsFang XiaohongFall in love, fall in love and quickly enter the palace of marriage.
The two had a son after marriage, and the family of three lived a warm and ordinary life.
For the happiness of her small family, Fang Xiaohong chose to quit the entertainment industry and concentrate on her husband and children, while Li Zixiong continued to work hard in the entertainment industry.
Because Li Zixiong has more brothers and sisters, Li Zixiong often supports the lives of his brothers and sisters after becoming famous, helping them financially.
The two repeatedly quarreled and had many contradictions.
Later, as Li Zixiong's career flourished, he was busy filming and often couldn't return home, and the time for the husband and wife to get together became scarce.
The relationship gradually fades in the distance, and the rift in the marriage becomes more and more obvious.
In 2007, 48-year-old Li Zixiong and Fang Xiaohong decided to end their 13-year marriage after negotiation.
After the two divorced, their son was raised by Fang Xiaohong, while Li Zixiong often visited his son.
It was also this year that Li Zixiong came to the mainland to develop and was filming"Father and Son Detective".series of films when met the actressFatimah Yaqi, the relationship between the two also began.
Fatimah Yaqi is the ex-girlfriend of "Huang Ama" Zhang Tielin, and is an authentic Beijing girl.
Fatimah Yaqi, formerly known asWang Yaqi, is a Hui girl.
Although she is a full 23 years younger than Li Zixiong, her acting career began when she was 5 years old.
As a child, she showed amazing singing and acting talents, whether it was folk songs or Peking opera, she could easily control them.
At the age of 5, with her love and dedication to acting, she was successfully admitted to the Chinese children's film drama performance class and embarked on the road of an actress.
In 1997, 16-year-old Fatimah Yaqi was admittedDepartment of Drama, People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts
Because of her outstanding appearance, she was regarded as the school flower of the People's Liberation Army Art Academy as soon as she entered the school.
Her looks soon attracted many suitors, however, her heart was deeply hurt by an older man.
This older man is Zhang Tielin.
At that time, Fatimah Yaqi went there in order to improve his acting skills"Huanzhu Gege".of the crew to learn.
It was also at this time that Fatimah Yaqi met Zhang Tielin.
Zhang Tielin has been in the entertainment industry for many years at this time, and he is an old-timer in the eyes of Fatimah Yaqi.
She was very humble in front of Zhang Tielin, and Zhang Tielin was attracted by the youthful charm of Fatimah Yaqi and had subtle feelings for her.
After that, Fatimah Yaqi often asked Zhang Tielin for advice on performance. The communication between the two deepened day by day.
Once, Fatimah Yaqi was rehearsing a play in school, and suddenly came to Zhang Tielin's **.
Zhang Tielin invited her to go"Mr. Liaozhai".The crew tried on makeup, but Fatimah Yaqi refused because of his busy studies.
Zhang Tielin promised her that there would not be many scenes, and it would never affect her studies. After thinking about it, Fatimah Yaqi still agreed.
At the filming site of "Mr. Liaozhai", Zhang Tielin took meticulous care of Fatimah Yaqi and personally picked him up every day.
How could a 17-year-old girl hold on to such a gentle offensive from her uncle?
In this way, Fatimah Yaqi fell into the love trap of Zhang Tielin, who was 25 years older than her.
At that time, Zhang Tielin already had a girlfriend, which was better than him17 years youngerof actressesHou Junjie
However, in an accident, Hou Junjie became pregnant, and despite Zhang Tielin's opposition, she insisted on giving birth to a child, and the relationship between the two broke down.
After falling in love with Fatimah Yaqi, Zhang Tielin did not plan to marry her, but Fatimah Yaqi had a longing.
But she didn't expect that the flowery Zhang Tielin would soon be attracted by the young and beautiful female college student Zi Xiaomin.
Later, Zi Xiaomin was also pregnant with Zhang Tielin's child.
That one in 2002"The snatching incident"., which was a huge upheaval in the entertainment industry at that time.
However, this is nothing, and the more surprising thing is yet to come. Fatimah Yaqi, who lived with Zhang Tielin for four years, was also pregnant with Zhang Tielin's child.
I have to say, it has to be"Alexandre Dumas".Zhang Tielin. Although he had a child, Zhang Tielin insisted on not marrying Fatimah Yaqi.
So, Fatimah Yaqi resolutely left Zhang Tielin.
It wasn't until he met Li Zixiong that Fatimah Yaqi woke up like a dream, found the true love, and enjoyed the sweetness of love.
She grew up watching Li Zixiong's plays, and she has long regarded him as an idol in her heart.
In the crew of "Father and Son Detective", she excitedly found Li Zixiong for a group photo and humbly asked for acting skills. Her innocent and graceful personality left a deep impression on Li Zixiong.
After filming, the two exchanged information frequently and occasionally met.
In constant contact, the two gradually developed feelings for each other. Fatimah Yaqi could feel Li Zixiong's sincerity, and her heart was touched by his character and sense of security, but she still had concerns in her heart because she had just experienced a failed relationship.
However, Li Zixiong told her that he would wait for her to come out before pursuing her.
Fatimah Yaqi was moved by his sincerity and decided to be with Li Zixiong.
When Fatimah Yaqi's parents learned of their daughter's new relationship, they were very opposed.
In their opinion, the age difference between Li Zixiong and Yaqi is 23 years, even older than Yaqi's mother. Moreover, Li Zixiong is also divorced and has a child.
Most importantly, they are reluctant to let their daughters marry far away.
After learning about Yaqi's parents' concerns, Li Zixiong decided to visit him personally.
He said sincerely to Yaqi's parents"Although I am not young, I am still in good health, and I am willing to go back to the mainland to develop, and even 'marry' to Beijing. ”
After that, he used his savings for many years to buy a wedding house in Beijing, and moved his family from the bustling city of Hong Kong to the vicinity of Beijing.
Yaqi's parents were moved by his sincerity and finally entrusted their daughter to him.
In 2010, Li Zixiong and Fatimah Yaqi officially became husband and wife. This 51-year-old man has finally become an authentic Beijing son-in-law.
Today, the two live a very happy and sweet life, and they have a lovely child.
Although he is over 60 years old, Li Zixiong still likes some things for young people, not only has a good time, but also often goes to all parts of the country to appreciate the local customs.
In the Harbin issue, Li Zixiong said:"Harbin not only has the familiar ice and snow world, snow town, ** street and cathedral, everyone comes to Harbin, and if you have the opportunity, you must experience rural life. ”
It has to be an older generation of Hong Kong artists, very down-to-earth. Insolent acting, humble life.
It also welcomes more and more Hong Kong artists to come to the mainland to promote the culture and cuisine of various parts of the mainland.
