Most of today's young people don't know who Fan Zhiwei is. However, there are always some people in the entertainment industry who are easy to get carried away once they become famous. Fan Zhiwei is like this. He started acting like a monster before he became famous all over the

In the entertainment industry, updates and iterations are very fast.

Even if an artist is popular all over the world at the moment, there is no guarantee that he will be popular for a lifetime.

This time, Eight Aunts will take stock of the current situation of eight has-been celebrities from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and see what kind of life those once highly sought-after artists are going through now.

No. 1, Fan Zhiwei (41 years old)

Most of today’s young people don’t know who Fan Zhiwei is.

But in the early years, he was a talented actor who was appreciated by Wong Kar-Wai , a "little Tony Leung " who was praised by Carina Lau , and a little fresh meat who was deeply loved by the "Sweetheart Leader" Cyndi Wang .

Even now, there are few artists in the entertainment industry who can achieve such "comprehensive development."

However, there are always some people in the entertainment industry who tend to get carried away as soon as they become famous. Fan Zhiwei is like this. He started acting like a monster before he became famous all over the world.

He reported three violent incidents alone.

had a big fight with Bole Wong Kar-Wai because of work issues. The other two cases were due to relationship issues, with fists and kicks directed at Cyndi Wang and a female model.

In addition, there are two other things that also greatly damaged his reputation.

One thing is that under the guise of Cyndi Wang’s ex-boyfriend’s identity, intimate photos of the two of them were exposed, and they also talked about the woman’s first night.

Another thing is that when being interviewed by the media, there is no limit to the popularity of celebrities.

even keeps saying that his fame and wealth are higher than Jay Chou .

No wonder everyone says he has mental problems, he is just talking nonsense seriously.

Thanks to his "self-made", he is only 41 years old this year and looks slovenly.

not only shows his age, but also lacks any youthful charm. He can't even do his job in acting.

Even he knew that he could not go back.

Last year, the media took photos of him wearing a mask as a waiter in a hot pot restaurant.

Although there is no distinction between high and low professions, his downward path is still too obvious.

The second place is Ming Dao (41 years old)

It is no exaggeration to say that when he was young, Ming Dao was the dream lover of thousands of girls.

Even though the girls who were obsessed with him at that time were all married and had children, when I think of his roles in "Heaven's Wedding Dress", "Prince Turns into a Frog", "Love Magician"... I can still think of myself. youth.

Therefore, the enlightenment at the peak not only created his own glory, but also wrote the youthful time of countless people.

However, Mingdao in life did not continue his multi-jinba character in the movie, which may be an important reason for his passing.

Mingdao’s native family was a big drag on him. He first followed his parents and experienced a poor childhood.

In order to help his father pay off his debts, he risked his life and hosted a travel show called "Adventure King".

In the picture below, he is the person who was almost hit by a 3-ton ice block.

finally made it to the point where he became a male protagonist and an idol, but his brother began to fall out of control again and became addicted to gambling.

As the younger brother, Mingdao followed his elder brother to make up a lot of money, and he also lost many drama contracts because of it. When

was booming in the mainland, he returned to Taiwan to serve in the military for a year. After

came back, he rarely played a leading role again, and his has-been career soon followed.

In 2019, in order to return to the top, he participated in the variety show " Actors please take your place ".

Although he encountered setbacks and doubted himself in this show, he still won the recognition of the director and the audience with his acting skills and demeanor.

Unfortunately, his period of fame has not yet officially arrived. The news that his brother committed suicide due to debt has once again pushed him into the whirlpool of public opinion.

Netizens with good intentions clung to his previous statement of severing ties with his brother.

But in fact, the hole Mingdao filled for his brother was not as big as usual, and he did not pay as much as usual for the family.

Fortunately, the noise of public opinion did not defeat Mingdao.

Now that he is married and has children, he has gradually escaped from the shadow of his original family and started the next phase of his life.

In order to earn money for milk powder for his children, he had already thrown away his idol baggage, kept up with the times, and joined the live broadcast trend.

Although it is not decent, it is not shameful to make money with your own hands.

is third, Zhu Xiaotian (42 years old)

is also a member of the "idol group F4". Although Zhu Xiaotian is not as famous as Jerry Yan and Zhou Yimin, his acting skills in " Meteor Garden " are still Not to be booed.

Even the director of the play, Cai Yuexun, can't stop saying a lot of compliments when mentioning him.

After the hit "Meteor Garden" hit the airwaves, it caused a stir throughout Asia, and its popularity was unprecedented.

The drama series, songs, and even the four male leads became famous for a while.

Because this drama was so successful, the four male leads also took advantage of the opportunity to become the idol group-F4.

F4 is like many idol groups. When they are together, they are equally popular. When they play alone, most of them become popular and then fade away. Zhu Xiaotian is no exception.

As a middle-aged man, when it comes to outdated topics, Zhu Xiaotian seems to have a thorough understanding.

He said that he is currently the worst person in F4.

was crowded with people when it was popular, but no one cared about it when it went out of fashion. In the final analysis, it was because it could not bring economic benefits.

Because his reputation was not as good as before, when Zhu Xiaotian got married, many people in the circle couldn't move.

Fortunately, he and his wife have a very good relationship. Without the fame and fortune from the outside world, at least there is inner gain.

However, because of the family's genetic history, he and his wife did not put the plan to have children on the agenda.

No. 4, Xu Huaiyu (43 years old)

Xu Huaiyu, who has beautiful songs and sweet songs, is the childhood goddess of many people.

Although she came from a poor background, her career was very successful. At her peak, her records were sold very well, and for this reason she also gained the reputation of "Public Queen" and "Million Idol".

But it is very regrettable that after Xu Huaiyu became famous, his career path was not smooth.

Xu Huaiyu’s grandfather was addicted to alcohol. He not only domestically abused his granddaughter and daughter-in-law, but also forced his own son to commit suicide.

After Xu Huaiyu became famous, in order to ask for money, his grandfather cried loudly in front of the media about the news that he had been abandoned by his granddaughter.

Although Xu Huaiyu tried her best to clarify, her image was still greatly affected.

A few years after the family scandal broke out, Xu Huaiyu refused the company's request to accompany her for drinks because she was afraid of being unspoken. While she was working, she ran away with her assistant. After

, she even refused to participate in any activities and performances arranged by the company. As a result, the company

terminated her contract and took her to court, demanding 2 million yuan in liquidated damages.

Later, some families were willing to accept her.

But for some reason, she played the missing game again at work, and the new company was also annoyed by her.

Her old boss and new boss worked together to speak ill of her, so she was naturally unable to defend herself.

One after another, Xu Huaiyu’s career and body have turned red. When

was at her lowest, her height of 156cm was only over 30 kilograms. She even had to rely on the support of her fans to tide over the difficulties.

Fortunately, these are things in the past.

The current Xu Huaiyu, although not in line with the glory of the past, has also stepped out of the shadow of the past.

Netizens can often see her hearty smile and good condition on social platforms.

After moving from Hong Kong to the Mainland for development, she did not quickly find her place in the complicated entertainment industry.

Therefore, netizens can occasionally see her performing in small county towns.

To be honest, the small stage did not diminish her charm.

No. 5, Li Qihong (51 years old)

If you look closely at Li Qihong, you will feel that she is not an authentic beauty, but some artists can use luck and talent to get rid of the suspicion of relying on their appearance.

In 1994, after winning the third runner-up of Miss Hong Kong , Li Qihong had a smooth journey in the Hong Kong circle.

In the second year, she acted with Li Ming and became the heroine of "Good morning, teacher ".

Immediately afterwards, he played Guo Xiang in the 1995 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and thus became a lingering screen classic in the minds of many people.

Many subsequent versions of Guo Xiang, including those played by Da Mi Mi, could not compare with her.

But it is a pity that she had to suspend her work because she suffered from depression .

After her body recovered, she still continued her acting career in an orderly manner.

Her acting career was not interrupted again until she married her Canadian husband and had children and settled abroad.

It is said that while living in Canada, she obtained a nursing certificate and worked as a nurse for a period of time.

No wonder the doctor she played in "Beijing Meets Seattle" was so natural.

In 2008, her acting career continued again.

It’s just that after that, the roles she played couldn’t be compared to her peak years.

Today, she is over fifty and still living a happy life in Canada with her husband and children.

As she gets older, her face has long lost its former aura, and wrinkles and spots can be seen everywhere on her face, but she looks in good condition.

It seems that happiness can help women resist the fear of aging.

No. 6, Zhou Haimei (54 years old)

Hong Kong goddess Zhou Haimei was synonymous with all kinds of charm when she was young. Many people just hear this name and can think of her with long hair.

Of course, the Zhou Zhiruo she played in "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" is also a childhood nightmare for many people.

Even so, the audience still likes her, because appearance is justice!

After Zhou Haimei became famous, she also experienced many difficulties.

was in a car accident, lost his role, and almost died because of it. After

married Lu Liangwei, she thought she had found love, but it turned out that the man just wanted to find a good wife and mother.

Later, she lost two marriages due to lupus erythematosus, her career was stagnant for a time, and her image as a beautiful girl was also greatly damaged.

has recovered from her illness and is no longer famous. When she comes back, she can only play some supporting female roles.

Now, at the age of 55, compared with her younger self and celebrities of the same age, her appearance and fame have faded.

But she didn't mind at all. She moved to Beijing long ago and lived a good life with her eight puppies in a villa with a garden and a vegetable garden.

Some people urged her to get married and have children, but she responded unceremoniously, with the domineering air of an old lady who is in charge of her own life.

No. 7, Wen Zhaolun (57 years old)

It is hard to imagine that Wen Zhaolun, known as "TVB's number one villain", is already 57 years old.

After all, in the hearts of many people, he is still the handsome guy who can commit crimes unscrupulously based on his handsomeness.

Ding Youkang in " I'm Not Merciful " and Qi Haonan in " I'm Kind" are both good-looking villains played by him.

Many people who play villains are afraid of being dragged down by their roles, but Wen Zhaolun's appearance gives him enough confidence. This is why, even if he plays the role of a villain, he can still be a mess.

Of course, viewers who value appearance first do not have no bottom line in everything.

It’s okay to forget that Wen Zhaolun is a bad guy in the movie. He often has scandals in real life, and his private life is outrageously chaotic.

Therefore, not surprisingly, he "made" himself too angry.

However, after his passing, Wen Zhaolun's life was not bleak.

Although he once cried about his "miserable" current situation in a live broadcast, he also held a pile of sanitary napkins and tried hard to sell them.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that the business he invested in is enough for him to live comfortably.

What's more, even though his private life was so chaotic when he was young, he still married a wife and had children when he got older.

So, the prodigal son got gold when he turned around, and became a Buddha when he put down the butcher's knife. What else can he complain about?

If you really want to say that you stand in the street singing and singing in your later years and feel lonely, then it is just a "punishment" that has a cause and a result.

No. 8, Wan Ziliang (64 years old)

People who like Hong Kong movies know how popular Wan Ziliang was when he was young.

After all, not just anyone can compete with Chow Yun-fat and Andy Lau , nor can just anyone be able to make irresponsible remarks about Stephen Chow and Lam Jiadong .

said this, I don’t know who he is, but I can also imagine how powerful he is.

Not only celebrities can highlight his power, but the "gangsters" he played are also the imprints left by his many years in the film industry.

Do you still remember the "I'm eating shit" emoticon from Jacky Cheung ? The target of the insult was Wan Ziliang.

Audiences who have watched "Carmen " may still remember how much Jacky Cheung in the film paid for his addiction to mouth.

In addition, Wan Ziliang has also played many young and dangerous boys, tough guys and big brothers.

These domineering characters can easily form a nine-square grid.

Whether it is smoking, drinking, carrying a robbery, acting cool or mischievous... any one of them can evoke the memories of the era for Hong Kong film lovers.

What is sad is that no matter how powerful the elder brother is, he will eventually grow old and become obsolete.

Today, the 64-year-old Wan Ziliang is no longer the "movie big shot" he used to be. He has settled in a small county town in Changsha, and he also goes to nightclubs to make a living on weekdays.

Although the appearance fee is not low, face and self-esteem are the most embarrassing things.

In addition, due to family genetic history, Wan Ziliang suffered from severe diabetes . Long-term medication made his body and appearance worse than before.

On his face, which is getting fatter and older, the high-spirited look of his eldest brother can no longer be seen.

But even though he has not been the big brother for many years, he still maintains the momentum of the big brother in his life.

The media had previously photographed him walking surrounded by a group of people. The scene was quite impressive.

Moreover, one after another people worshiped him as their teacher.

It seems that Wan Ziliang, who is over 60 years old, still has some prestige in the circle.

Although the eight stars mentioned above have all experienced glorious periods of life, without exception, they have also ushered in their own moments of silence.

The ups and downs along the way are only seen as stories and jokes by outsiders. Only those involved can best appreciate the experience.

But Aunt Eight always feels that whether it is a hit or no one cares about it, the most important thing in the entertainment industry is to keep a clear head at all times.

After all, it is difficult for someone to be famous for a lifetime, but classic works can be preserved forever.

Only when artists clearly realize this can they truly understand what they should pursue most.
