On March 1, according to Hong Kong media reports, the late veteran actor Wu Mengda will hold a funeral on March 7, and then his wife and children will bring his ashes back to Malaysia for burial.
It was Wu Mengda's last wish to be buried in Malaysia. He once expressed this idea when chatting with his younger brother. Because for so many years, Wu Mengda's wife and children have been living in Malaysia, so he hopes that after his death, he can accompany his family to protect them, and at the same time, it will be convenient for his family to visit the grave.
There is another reason why Wu Mengda's family chose to bring his ashes back to Malaysia. In fact, it is hard to find a cemetery in Hong Kong. At present, the burial costs in Hong Kong are high, with an urn costing as much as 170,000 yuan, and there are no cemeteries for public sale.
Wu Mengda is an old drama character that the audience likes very much, and he is known as a golden supporting role. He received attention for playing Hu Tiehua in "Legend of Chu Liuxiang", and then starred in many comedy movies such as " Play Back to School Weilong ", " Nine Pins of Sesame Official: White Bread Qingtian ", " King of Destruction ". On February 27 last year, Wu Mengda passed away in Hong Kong due to lung cancer, which made countless viewers feel deeply sorry.
Wu Mengda's last movie was "Legend of the Treasure of the Shaolin Temple" co-operated with mainland star Wang Baoqiang . When filming this film, his body was already very weak, but it never affected the shooting progress. Previously, the footage of the movie was exposed, and Wu Mengda was low-key and dedicated to his work on the set. He had to take a short break because of his physical discomfort, and he had to apologize to the staff with guilt all over his face.
Wu Mengda's death is not only a loss for the film industry, but also a huge pain in the hearts of the audience. Hope his ashes can be buried as soon as possible, and all is well in heaven!
