In the late 1970s, young boy Chen Xiaochun was chained up at home by his father because he was worried that he would abandon his younger siblings and sneak out to fight in the "field".
My father is my biological father, I just live as a family, and we are really poor. We were so poor that we sold our youngest son to others for 3,000 yuan.
This was a helpless move by the parents and the result of the strong instigation of the boss, Chen Xiaochun. He was afraid of starving, and hated having to stay at home to take care of his younger siblings, thus losing his freedom.
Chen Xiaochun was born in Huizhou, Guangdong in 1967. His family, starting from his grandfather who was the son-in-law, was a "poor farmer" with only a few walls.
Chen Xiaochun later realized how easy it was to take care of his younger siblings at home, because when he got older, he would have to go to the fields like an adult and do all the farm work.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he worked, he could not get enough to eat. Long-term malnutrition made Chen Xiaochun thin and short, and his growth curve could not keep up with his actual age.
At that time, Chen Xiaochun’s biggest wish was to have enough to eat every day, and he was not interested in studying. He finally finished elementary school, and after a lot of soy sauce in the first grade of junior high school, he started working as a child laborer.
In 1980, 13-year-old Chen Xiaochun came to Hong Kong with his parents and lived in the shabbiest "cage house" in Hong Kong. He worked as a temporary construction and decoration worker, the dirtiest and most tiring. His hands were covered with tiny wooden thorns every day, which caused unbearable pain.
When he got home at night, Chen Xiaochun's mother cried and used an embroidery needle to pick out the wooden thorns in his hand one by one.
Although life is very hard, you still have to "have fun in the midst of hardship". Influenced by Hong Kong's entertainment culture, Jordan Chan fell in love with dancing and would do a few dances when he had nothing to do.
At that time, Chen Xiaochun could not imagine that this "irregular" hobby would become a major foreshadowing of his "diaosi counterattack".
His biggest wish at that time was to move out of the "cage house". When he successfully received his first salary, he immediately gave it to his mother and moved the family to a rental house.
Chen Xiaochun looked at his hands and firmly believed that as long as he worked hard, he would be able to live a good life.
However, as the construction project ended and he lost his job, life once again showed its ferocious fangs.

In 1983, 16-year-old Chen Xiaochun worked as a temporary waiter in a food stall. In the first month of his arrival, he had no wages and only had food and accommodation. He worked 16 hours a day and had to do all the hard and dirty work.
From the second month on, because of his hard work, he became an official employee with a monthly salary of 300 Hong Kong dollars.
Then one day, a customer came to the store and a fly was found in the food. The boss didn't want to lose money, so he took out Chen Xiaochun who was in charge of serving the food. After slapping him twice, he forced him to eat the fly.
Even those who are struggling at the bottom still need dignity. The energetic Chen Xiaochun felt humiliated, cursed the boss, packed up and left.
Chen Xiaochun dragged his luggage and did not dare to go home. He continued to look for work on the streets of Hong Kong. After several twists and turns, he worked as a handyman and apprentice in a street barber shop.
This barber shop is located in Causeway Bay. It often serves some underworld figures. Every time these people come, it makes people in the shop panic. But one time, Chen Xiaochun was caught at gunpoint while giving a haircut to a drunk guy. Shaved his hair.
Accompanied by angry insults, a fierce battle is imminent.
At this time, Chen Xiaochun was beginning to show his "ganghu temperament". The other party put the dagger against his neck, but he remained calm and shouted: " You can do whatever you want, as long as you settle the accounts with me alone! "
This arrogant temperament shocked the whole audience. The fierce battle was successfully resolved.
After working in a barber shop for two years, Chen Xiaochun has grown from a thin boy to a strong young man. Because he often encounters troubles from the underworld , he has a good grasp of the "ganghu temperament", which will also set him up for the future. Starring in " Young and Dangerous " laid the foundation.
During this period, he never gave up his hobby of having fun in spite of hardships. The more he danced, the better he got. The "personal tool"
also successfully knocked on the door of his ideals unintentionally.
At noon one day in 1985, a customer came to the barber shop and said that he wanted a beautiful haircut and was preparing to take the dance artist test for Hong Kong Wireless Station (TVB) in the afternoon. Chen Xiaochun was also looking for new development opportunities at this time. As soon as he heard that he was interested, he went with him.
After dancing a few designated moves and performing freely, Chen Xiaochun was accepted on the spot and received a job opportunity with a monthly salary of 700 Hong Kong dollars.
This income was simply a "high salary" for Chen Xiaochun at the time. He quit his job at the barber shop the next day, signed a contract with Wireless, and became a dancer.
This year, Chen Xiaochun was 18 years old, and everything had just begun, but everything was not as smooth as imagined, but full of twists and turns.
3.
During the two months of studying in the dance training class, Chen Xiaochun's life was not easy. Because of his status as a "Mainland boy", he was often discriminated against by local students in Hong Kong. He once lived in a "cage house" and did farm work, etc. Experience is even more regarded as alien.
Chen Xiaochun has no intention of hiding these growth experiences from others, because: As long as a person tells a lie, he needs countless lies to cover it up.
The 18-year-old Chen Xiaochun knows that he comes from a poor background, and if he wants to get ahead, he can only convince others with his dancing skills. So he became the most diligent student in the dance class. Finally, two months later, as an outstanding student, he entered the "Leopard Boy" group and was arranged to be a backup dancer at Alan Tam's concert.
This year, Alan Tam is 35 years old and his singing career is at its peak. He is preparing to hold 20 consecutive "Alan Tam Super Platinum Concerts" at the Hung Hom Stadium in Hong Kong.
Chen Xiaochun followed Tan "The King" and danced hard, and was finally appreciated. The "Heaven King" turned sideways, patted his shoulder, said words of encouragement, and recommended Chen Xiaochun to the circle after the concert. Dear friends.
has been dancing for 6 years. During his long career as a backup dancer, Jordan Chan has successively served as "backdrops" for Anita Mui, , Chen Baiqiang, Leslie Cheung and other superstars.
turned around in 1992. This year is 25-year-old Chen Xiaochun’s seventh year as a dancer.
In the same year, 26-year-old Lin Yilian fell in love with Li Zongsheng for the first time when they collaborated on "When Love Is a Past", and the concert was a dazzling one (for details, please see previous articles on Wan Xiaodao's official account: Godfather of Music, A bad student’s counterattack!).
Among Lin Yilian's backup dancers, Chen Xiaochun is particularly conspicuous. He dances well, speaks well, and is smooth in everything he does without losing his charlatanism.
At the celebration reception after the concert, Jordan Chan, as the representative of the backup dance group, was pushed on stage by his colleagues to perform.
As a result, this appearance completely ended his 7-year career as a dancer.
Jordan Chan picked up the microphone and sang "Flowers in the Water" by Alan Tam. At the reception, the owner of "Star Factory" made a wish and was attracted.
The most popular singing and dancing group in Hong Kong at that time was the "Grasshopper Group" who studied under Anita Mui and won the "Gold Award for Hong Kong's Top Popular Chart Groups" for three consecutive years.
Boss Xu drew a "grasshopper" based on this "grasshopper", first took Chen Xiaochun under his wing, and then found Xie Tianhua and Zhu Yongtang who were both dancers, and formed a singing and dancing group "Wind and Fire Sea" .
24-year-old Zhu Yongtang is "wind", 25-year-old Chen Xiaochun is "fire", and 25-year-old Xie Tianhua is "sea". So, can the "storm and sea" created by the boss of "Star Factory" really replicate the same legend as "Grasshopper Group"?
4.
In fact, when "Fenghuohai" first debuted, their resources were extremely good. Biyi was a group that Boss Xu personally discovered. The company did not dare to neglect it. While working hard to create a music album, they also arranged for them to work under famous directors. Appeared in the movie.
As a result, planted flowers but failed to bloom . A few people sang without causing any waves. It was like grasshoppers after autumn. They jumped around for a few days and dispersed after two albums.
On the road of acting, unintentionally intervened, , Jordan Chan walked out of the devil's steps.
In 1995, 28-year-old Jordan Chan was nominated for "Best Newcomer" and "Best Supporting Actor" at the Hong Kong Film Awards for "Golden Leaves" and "9 to 5", and finally won the award for "9 to 5". "Abao" in "Abao" won the " Best Supporting Actor Award ".
His first film won the award. Jordan Chan was unprepared at the time. When he went on stage to receive the award, he didn’t know what to say. He said blankly: " Thank you, director, thank you to the whole world! "
Award presenter Yang Caini signaled him for more Speaking of something, he turned to look at the 21-year-old Yang Caini and said: " Thank you Yang Caini. Anyway, thank you, give it to me! " was as simple as Wang Baoqiang's debut, which attracted laughter from the audience and became the highlight of the party.
Since then, Jordan Chan's career has been on the rise, and his love life has also been quite proud. When filming late one night in 1995, Xu Haoying, who was also 21 years old and had just debuted, came to visit the cast. Of course, not long after, Xu Haoying fell in love with Eason Chan , who was of the same age as her.
However, Chen Xiaochun is not too sad. He has been fighting against each other repeatedly. Within a year, he has developed an underground love affair with Lu Fang, 's image designer Wang Minhui, and his long-time crush on the artist, Che Wanwan , who is also 21 years old. .
Also in 1995, the "Best Partner" film company jointly established by Wang Jing, Liu Weiqiang, Wen Jun, was preparing to launch a movie "Young and Dangerous " adapted from comics and about gangsters.
The original "cast" blueprint for the movie was as follows: He Jiajin was asked to play the male lead " Chen Haonan ", Takeshi Kaneshiro was cast as the second male lead "Pheasant", and Zhu Yin was asked to play Chen Haonan's girlfriend "Su Axi". These three people,
, all had great box office appeal in the movie market back then.
As a result, Ho Ka-jin and Takeshi Kaneshiro had no schedule at all, and Zhu Yin was unwilling to take the film due to the pornographic and violent colors in the film.
Acting was in a dilemma, and Liu Weiqiang was scratching his head anxiously. He accidentally discovered that the 28-year-old Ekin Cheng had long hair, which was very consistent with the temperament of Chen Haonan in the film, so the "caster" downgraded and successfully persuaded Ekin Cheng to play Chen Haonan.
Jordan Chan, who is the same age as Ekin Cheng, got excited when he heard there was such a movie about a gangster, and took the initiative to recommend himself to Andy Lau.
The director saw that Chen Xiaochun's "ruffian" smell was quite similar to the character of the "pheasant" in the play, so he decided to cast him.
At the same time, the boss of "Star Factory" Xu followed the trend and also recommended the other two members of "Wind and Fire Sea" to the crew, Xie Tianhua and Zhu Yongtang, who play the roles of Chen Haonan's henchmen "Da Tian Er" and "Chao Pi" respectively.
Chen Haonan's girlfriend "Su Ah Xi" is played by 24-year-old Gigi Lai (for details of Gigi Lai's story, please see the previous article on Wan Xiaodao's public account: "The Love Story of a Mature Man in the "Hong Kong Movie Queen").
Five,
Half a month later, the movie " Young and Dangerous " was completed and prepared for release. However, it was collectively questioned by the theater bosses and was relegated to the useless schedule after Christmas and before the Spring Festival. The screening was also scheduled for midnight.
After the film was released, it successfully evoked the collective memories of Hong Kong citizens about that special era. The film became popular and became a menacing dark horse, raking in more than 21 million at the box office.
At that time, the movie theme song " Friendship Years " was played everywhere in the streets and alleys of Hong Kong. Upon seeing this, the director team of

Now, the director team got out of hand and worked hard to release "Young and Dangerous 3: Covering the Sky with One Hand" in June.Later, several sequels such as "Invincible", "Enter the Dragon" and "Winner Takes All" were successively produced, which quickly became popular on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
No one expected that these "young and Dangerous boys" with blue dragons and white tigers tattooed on their chests and backs and holding watermelon knives would evolve into spiritual symbols of an era. Back then, in the Mainland, almost every school and even every class had self-styled characters such as "Chen Haonan" and "Pheasant".
Chen Xiaochun finally became famous in his thirties with the role of "Pheasant ". The "Pheasant" he portrayed is lustful, reckless and uninhibited. In the eyes of movie fans, is also "instrumental for brothers" and "love-minded". "Chongyi" the true man of .
After becoming famous, the "Young and Dangerous" people have a smooth stardom and a wanton life.
Ekin Cheng's girlfriend was changed from Shao Meiqi to the younger "beautiful girl" Gigi Leung. The news that "the two girls stole the show" was a sensation back then.
Zhu Yongtang became the first man of Cecilia Cheung who was 12 years younger than him, and took her to debut.
In 1998, 18-year-old Cecilia Cheung became famous overnight for starring in Stephen Chow 's "The King of Comedy". Later, Zhu Yongtang was dumped, and Cecilia Cheung fell in love with Chen Xiaodong who was 5 years older than herself.
Jordan Chan has also had a crush on Cecilia Cheung for a long time, but due to the brotherhood with Zhu Yongtang, he could not openly pursue . Later, after the goddess changed hands, he felt that he could not compete with Chen Xiaodong, so he had a "sour grape mentality" and comforted Zhu Yongtang to let go. Infatuated, "playing with flowers" like myself.
After becoming famous, Chen Xiaochun has had many romantic affairs, and his rank has been continuously improved through experience.
In 1998, when TVB started filming Jin Yong's drama "The Deer and the Cauldron", they invited 31-year-old Chen Xiaochun to play the role of the sexy and naughty "Wei Xiaobao". As a result, Chen Xiaochun took over the role and transformed into "Wei Xiaobao" outside the play, carrying a pink machine gun. , shooting everywhere.
Soon after, Chen Xiaochun went to Taiwan to develop his career. In an entertainment program, he met the host Tao Jingying , who was two years younger than him. The two quickly developed a relationship.
This year, Ying Caier, 15 years old, is wearing a princess dress and living with her family on the other side of the ocean in the United States. She also liked the "Pheasant" in Young and Dangerous, but she never thought that one day she would become his junior sister, let alone marry him.
VI,
In 1999, 32-year-old Chen Xiaochun resumed his singing career. Music producer Bao Xiaobai tailored songs such as "God, Save Me" and "I Don't Have That Life" for him. Love songs like
were unconventional, sung with realness and cruelty. They quickly stood out and won the "Hong Kong Powerful Award" that year, allowing Jordan Chan to occupy a place in the music industry.
In April 2000, 33-year-old Chen Xiaochun peacefully broke up with "Star Factory" and joined the " China Star " of Xiang and his wife. When the media asked about the remuneration, he counted on his fingers and said: is close to 8 digits, but I will deposit it all in the bank to my mother!
In the same year, 17-year-old Ying Cai'er, after winning the runner-up in the "Miss Chinatown USA Beauty Contest", returned to Hong Kong for vacation and took part in the interview for "China Star". She was appreciated by the boss lady Chen Lan and was quickly recruited into her team. Chen Xiaochun's "little junior sister".
Brother and sister were often paired up by the company and participated in activities together. After going back and forth, Ying Cai'er's fantasy about "Brother Pheasant" was quickly shattered.
At that time, Chen Xiaochun had no idol brilliance, and had a cold and cold aura that kept strangers away from him. He would throw props and leave the show if he disagreed with him. He often used swear words and often clashed with the media.
usually loves to play but is also stingy. The company gave him the nickname "Guhancheng" (in Cantonese, "Guhan" means stingy and stingy).
Cai'er Ying realized that her and Jordan Chan's growth backgrounds and ages were as different as each other, and it was difficult to have a common topic even if they chatted all day long. So he turned to Xiang Zuo, the "Prince Master" of "China Star", and the two of them sang K together, went to bars, and danced every night.
And Chen Xiaochun's favorite person at that time was also someone else.When he was filming "Pheasant Story of Friendship Years", he and newcomer Chen Baiyu fell in love because of the drama, and they often went out together. Later, Chen Baiyu faded out of the entertainment industry, and the scandal was gradually downplayed.
Soon after, Jordan Chan fell in love with Zhou Yingqi , who was 5 years younger than him. Zhou Yingqi was born in Taiwan Province and studied abroad in Canada. She was the bilingual host of Phoenix TV . However, the two had different interests and their relationship lasted for three years. Yue died young.

The media took the opportunity to ask, and the Chinese singer Stefanie Sun, who was born in Singapore , joked that she would consider developing a relationship with Jordan.
But in fact, Stefanie Sun, who was dedicated to singing, did not give the scandal a chance to develop.
In the same year, 21-year-old Cecilia Cheung experienced a change of heart, and her relationship with Chen Xiaodong for more than a year reached a dead end. This made Jordan Chan, who was also in the "window period", very happy. She immediately launched "Nuan Nan" online and moved her home directly to Cecilia Cheung's community to provide warmth, which greatly comforted her.
Both of them loved nighttails and cars, and they quickly became passionate and went to Thailand for vacation and indulged in beach indulgence.
Hong Kong media later broke the news again that the men accompanying Cecilia Cheung on the beach were not only Jordan Chan, but also record producer Chen Daoming, and Nicholas Tse, who had just broken up with Faye Wong.
Because Chen Xiaochun pursued Cecilia Cheung, he finally broke off his brotherly relationship with Zhu Yongtang , but he still failed to win the beauty back. He was defeated by Nicholas Tse, who was a few steps ahead of him in appearance and age.
Jordan Chan was very upset after being defeated. A few months later, the famous "Tse Tingfeng crashed into a car roof bag case" came out. When reporters asked Jordan about the past, he fired off a barrage of words, saying: " Don't mention the past, Cecilia Cheung's old news makes me I want to vomit ".
After being frustrated with Cecilia Cheung, Jordan Chan started eating "turn back grass" again. While drinking in a bar to relieve his boredom, he met his old lover Wang Minhui again. The two rekindled their love and fell in love again.
However, this handful of "turning back grass" did not last long. In 2002, Jordan Chan publicly pursued Anita Mui's manager Marianner, and later expressed his love to Karen Mok in a high-profile manner, and told the media: "If there were no Feng Delun, Mok Wenwei and I might get married..."
When Jordan Chan lamented that there was no one When they were in love, Cecilia Cheung was cheated on by Nicholas Tse.

Unexpectedly, after Cecilia Cheung healed her love injury, Jordan Chan became "cannon fodder" again.
It is impossible to say that he is not sad. The feeling may be just like what he sang in the song of the same name in the album " I'm sorry " released in 2003: " A cup of Erguotou will choke you to tears ."
However, Chen Xiaochun, a strong and handsome man, has repeatedly failed and fought hard. When he went to Taiwan to develop in 2004, he was rumored to be pursuing Jianhao Wu his rumored girlfriend at the time, Vivian Hsu, who was 8 years younger than him.. The two of them sang, drank and played all night long, acting so intimately that they seemed to be in love, but unfortunately they ended up without any problems.
This year, 21-year-old Cai'er Ying had a rough love life. She and her boyfriend Lu, who was outside the industry, were exposed by the media to have a fight in the parking lot because of the emergence of the new scandal target Edison Chen.
3 months later, he was arrested again on suspicion of drug possession, which caused an uproar in public opinion.
Although she was finally acquitted under the protection of Xiang Tai Chen Lan, the popularity she accumulated in the past few years since her debut has long been different due to the "sequelae".
The company took great pains to reshape her image, but while filming the TV series "Beautiful Legend 2 Star Wish", Ying Cai'er had a secret affair with Sun Yaowei who was 10 years older than her. She ignored the company's "orders" and secretly dated.
Cai'er Ying has infinite longing for this relationship. She once said frankly that she hopes to marry her boyfriend and have children in three or four years.
A year later, her "marriage partner" Sun Yaowei suddenly issued a "declaration of singleness" to the media.
At about the same time, Chen Xiaochun was experiencing the pain of losing his mother, and his temperament began to change drastically.
,
In 2006, Jordan Chan, who was still immersed in the pain of losing his mother for a year, participated in the movie "Devil and Angel". During the filming process, Ying Cai'er, who was on the same crew, laughed cheerfully from time to time, which infected him.
At this moment, Chen Xiaochun suddenly realized that this "Junior Sister Ying" had such a cheerful and straightforward personality, and was so lovable.
At this time, Ying Cai'er also discovered that the original "Lonely Hancheng" was actually a generous, filial, and good man who valued love and justice.
After getting to know each other better, the two people, who were 16 years apart, fell in love with each other. However, after the filming was completed, for unknown reasons, there was no further progress.
In 2007, 24-year-old Ying Cai'er went to the mainland to develop her career. She starred in the TV series "The Deer and the Cauldron" as A Ke, and she and Huang Xiaoming, who played "Wei Xiaobao", quickly became a scandal. It was rumored that she had met her parents, and good things were about to happen.
The 40-year-old Chen Xiaochun was shocked when he heard this, and quickly started a PK competition between "Wei Xiaobao" and "Wei Xiaobao". He made a surprise attack late at night and went straight to his heart. Finally, on Ying Cai'er's 24th birthday, they successfully merged.

In the same month, he released the album " Exclusive Memory ", in which the song of the same name became popular again, like saying goodbye to all old loves.
In 2009, on Ying Cai'er's 26th birthday, 2-year-old Chen Xiaochun led more than 30 brothers and rushed to Ying Cai'er. Without saying anything, he knelt down, held up the ring, and started crying.
Ying Caier smiled and cried together, and finally accepted the diamond engagement ring that cost six figures.
In February 2010, 43-year-old Chen Xiaochun and 27-year-old Cai'er Ying registered their marriage in the United States. In June, the two returned to Chen Xiaochun's hometown Huizhou, Guangdong to hold a make-up wedding. In November, they held another wedding banquet in Hong Kong.
Chen Xiaochun used practical actions to explain what a man's "two looks" are before and after marriage.
Once upon a time, Chen Xiaochun was emotionally indulgent and had many old loves. However, after marriage, he signed a "deed of sale" and became a "harvest wife". He called every day to report his whereabouts and handed over all his income.
In the past, Jordan Chan had a hot temper and often quarreled with heaven and earth. After marriage, he slowly reconciled with the years, his father, his former love rival and the Hong Kong media.
Today, Jordan Chan's family of four is warm and sweet, and his relationship with Cai'er Ying has become a "happy enemy" widely praised by public opinion.
Today, Chen Xiaochun has not been a "Pheasant Brother" for many years. He said that he used to love hanging out in nightclubs, but now he likes to stay at home and live a simple and honest life with his family.
He followed his father's wishes and did not look for his younger brother who had been sold for 3,000 yuan. Instead, he learned: cherish the people in front of you and live each day well.
