Today, this sentence is very applicable no matter where it is placed, especially in the entertainment industry where appearance is justice.

Appearance is a passport in the entertainment industry, unless you have super strength and charm.

Therefore, many actors who are not very outstanding in appearance but have characteristics usually need to work hard in the entertainment industry for many years to hone their acting skills successfully. , can you truly stand out.

These late-blooming stars can usually occupy a place in the entertainment industry with their solid acting skills accumulated over many years.

"Dongguan Boy" Lin Jiadong is a late-blooming actor.

Lam Ka-tung, who was born in Kowloon, Hong Kong in 1967, has appeared in 156 film and television works since his debut, although most of them were minor supporting roles.

However, although he does not have many roles, his acting skills are still online.

When Lin Jiadong was a child, his family was from an ordinary family. His parents had to go out to work every day. After his parents went out, they were worried about Lin Jiadong being alone at home.

would lock him at home, so Lin Jiadong, who had no playmates, had to watch TV. It was at that time that his interest in acting began.

After graduating from middle school, his parents hoped that Lin Jiadong would continue his studies, go to a better university, and become a doctor after graduation.

But Lin Jiadong, who was 19 years old at the time, was still a young and energetic "star chasing boy".

At that time, his idol was Andy Lau, who was already popular in Hong Kong. However, under the pressure of his parents, Lin Jiadong did not directly become an artist.

Instead, he worked as a clerk in a company, but the seeds of his dream sprouted in Lin Jiadong's heart day by day.

Finally one day, Lin Jiadong devoted himself to the actor industry despite his family's opposition.

Because he did not have a professional background, Lin Jiadong worked as a bit player for seven years before he became a real actor.

For seven years, Lin Jiadong accumulated experience every day. Finally, he made many people remember his appearance by imitating Jacky Cheung .

At that time, Lin Jiadong also took advantage of the opportunity to join Wireless, but the reality is that although he has an organization, his daily work is still a walk-in, recorder, field worker, screenwriter and even arranger.

The reason why Lin Jiadong did this was not because of how capable he was, but because the company liked this kind of supporting actor who didn't care about salary but was capable of everything.

Lin Jiadong has a slim future, but he does not want to give up easily. He said:

"I still hope that the company can give more new attempts and decide to stay."

In 1999, Lin Jiadong won the TVB33 award for " Tea is Hometown Strong " Taiwan Anniversary Thousand Stars Awards Ceremony "My Favorite TV Character".

Although Lin Jiadong's acting skills have been recognized by many people, he is still not popular in TVB due to his mediocre appearance.

Soon, his contract with TVB expired, and the company had no intention of renewing it, so he left the television industry where he had worked hard for 13 years.

In 2000, Lin Jiadong, who had nowhere to go, officially joined the company of his idol Andy Lau on the recommendation of 0,000 Ziliang .

When the two met, Lin Jiadong joked: I will leave the rest of my life to you.

Lin Jiadong, who has good acting skills and knows how to make progress, got Andy Lau's attention here.

But Lin Jiadong's luck was really bad. Andy Lau praised him for 17 years before he promoted the late bloomer Lin Jiadong to the best actor.

Because Lin Jiadong has been starring in TV dramas before, he has a strong taste of TV dramas, which makes Lin Jiadong very limited in his career.

In order to help Lin Jiadong get rid of his limitations, Andy Lau asked Lin Jiadong to retire for three years. During these three years, he should not appear in any works, but his salary would not be less.

Even Andy Lau, in order to reassure Lin Jiadong, promised that whenever Lin Jiadong needs funds, he can come to him.

Lin Jiadong went out to play and hang out every day at Andy Lau's suggestion.

But during the three years when Lin Jiadong retired, Andy Lau's life was very difficult. At that time, Andy Lau's company partner Mai Shaotang,

suddenly launched an attack and wanted to squeeze Andy out of the company, in order to complete his plan as soon as possible.

Mak Shaotang, who has a lot of money, united with the major film companies and record companies in Hong Kong,

asked them to block all Andy Lau-related movies, records, variety shows and other activities.

The boss was in trouble. Lin Jiadong couldn't sit still at home, so he approached Andy Lau. , expressed that he wanted to act, even commercially, and hoped that he could help Hua Tsai overcome the difficulties.

But Andy Lau told Lin Jiadong,

No matter how difficult it is here, I don’t need you to work. If you come out now, all your previous efforts will be in vain. No matter how difficult it is for me, I still have no problem raising a person.

Later, Andy Lau and Mak Shaotang reconciled with Lin Jianyue's reconciliation.

When Andy Lau came out of the trough of his career, the only employee around him was Lin Jiadong. At this time, they were not only superiors and subordinates, but more like brothers sharing weal and woe. After

, Andy Lau established a new company by himself, and Lin Jiadong became the only artist with a lifetime contract with Andy Lau's company.

As long as Andy Lau has a film appointment, he will definitely take Lin Jiadong with him. Therefore, in everyone's perception at that time, Lin Jiadong's image was always that of Andy Lau's pony boy.

Andy Lau quickly discovered this problem keenly. For the development of Lin Jiadong, he had to let Lin Jiadong leave him and develop alone.

So Andy Lau approached Lin Jiadong and took the initiative to propose the decision to terminate the contract.

At the 2017 Academy Awards awards night, Dawn played movie clips clips of the five leading actor nominees at that time. The top four of

are Tony Leung , Ng Chun-yu , Shawn Yue and Simon Yam .

The fifth place is Lin Jiadong, who surprised many people but was also expected.

When Lin Jiadong took over the statuette, his eyes turned red instantly. He choked with sobs and thanked everyone on the crew.

and his close friend Andy Lau.

He said: "In acting, it really doesn't matter age or appearance. You really have to put your heart into it and do the role well."

Now, 52-year-old Lin Jiadong has his own company, but there are almost no scandals in his love life.

Although there were rumors before that he had been in love with Feng Baobao's niece for 13 years, he said that he was a three-no actor with "no girlfriend, no real estate, and no salary."
