Stephenchi 60.
As in previous years, the entertainment industry still did not make much noise about his birthday. At the age of 60, he is unmarried, has no children, and has few friends. In the eyes of the outside world, he is very lonely.
However, perhaps loneliness can make Stephen Chow free.
When he left the big screen, he would still be nervous, embarrassed, and unaware of the reason once it was exposed to the public's view.
Only when he returns to the movie can he be at ease.
Someone has joked, why is the 67-year-old Zhou Runfa is Fa Ge , 61-year-old Andy Lau is Andy Lau , and Stephen Chow, who is only 60 years old this year, has been called the master of 30 years?
Stephen Chow always feels uncomfortable when facing teasing. He always likes to explain seriously that it is out of the whim of his friends.
His entertainment spirit seems to have been used in the movies, and in reality, he feels a bit unpleasant. The contrast in personality of
has always been with him.
Fake Kung Fu, real actor
60 years ago, Stephen Chow was born in a poor district in Kowloon, Hong Kong.
This poor area is probably the Zhuchangzhai in "Kung Fu".
A few years later, their parents divorced, Stephen Chow followed his mother, and his sister squeezed in the small room, sleeping on the upper and lower lattice shops.
Stephen Chow, who has not liked to talk since childhood, always likes to quietly observe the world outside the house through the windows of his home.
Couple fights, neighbors help each other, parents teach their children a lesson...
These crowded fireworks daily life were mostly applied to his movie scenes later.
Perhaps it is because the family lacks the strength of men. Stephen Chow, who is small and introverted, has a dream of strengthening himself.
The earliest, his idol was the uncle next door neighbor, because that uncle could actually catch cockroaches with bare hands.
This uncle later found a shadow in " Yangtze River No. 7 ".
html When he was 19 years old, Stephen Chow began to be obsessed with Bruce Lee , hoping that he could also become such a majestic hero.
For this reason, he began to practice iron sand palm .
Every day, insert the mung bean iron pot with your right hand until the skin is broken.
The child who practiced the Tathagata's magic palm in "Kung Fu" is actually himself.

For this reason, he began to practice iron sand palms hard.
Every day, insert the mung bean iron pot with your right hand until the skin is broken.
The child who practiced the Tathagata's magic palm in "Kung Fu" is actually himself. The plot of
is in " King of Comedy ".
"Every day I look in the mirror, I have no confidence... I don't know what was ahead, I don't know what the result will be if I go on. At that time, I didn't have confidence in myself."
The background is poor, the talent is not good, and the luck is not good. Stephen Chow's inferiority is like a shadow, but his mother's unyielding personality still affected him.
During that period, the one who supported Stephen Chow was probably like Yin Tianchou, who ran to the beach every day and shouted "Try hard! Struggle!"
Wu Shihong, known as the queen of working, once said:
If something prompted me to move upward, it is this kind of stimulation from constant inferiority.
Stephen Chow also under the stimulation of inferiority, he has created a continuous motivation for self-transcendence.
988's " Gambling Saint " finally made Stephen Chow, as an actor, finally see it.
small character, big movie
different from the protagonist halo of the big hero and handsome guy. Stephen Chow's protagonist is more like the cat and dog around us. He has many problems and many shortcomings, and sometimes he looks quite ridiculous when he works hard.
But such a small person can stand up in a mess under the various beatings of life, and show off his grassroots spirit of survival in adversity while laughing and scolding, which makes people feel faintly moved while hilarious.
Stephen Chow interprets such vivid little people.
Ng Mengda said:
Stephen Chow's performance style can be imitated in Hong Kong.
After movies such as " Fighting School Weilong ", " Death Death Official ", " Tang Bohu Points Qiuxiang ", Stephen Chow's movies began to become a category.
And the 1995 " American Journey " established his unique position in the film industry.
Until today, whenever the rhythm of the movie theme song " Love for a Lifetime " sounds, the former teenagers and now middle-aged people are still surging in their hearts.
The line "That person is like a dog", seems to be talking about you and me.
Many people say that when they were young, they laughed when they watched Stephen Chow's movies, and when they grew up, they cried when they watched Stephen Chow's movies.
Because I was a kid, when I was a kid, I savored the lines in the movies when I grew up and realized life.
" Resurrection Night ", he said: "Face is given by others, but sometimes face is thrown away by yourself."
"Domestic Lingling Paint" says: "Even a pair of underwear and a piece of toilet paper has its uses."
" Shaolin Football" " tells us again: "If you don't have ideals, what's the difference between being a salted fish?"
Stephen Chow put everything he wanted to say in the movie. He said "The story of the struggle of small people is often the most touching."
Because of experience, I understand.
He himself came from the grassroots. He knew too well how small an individual was in society and how panic was in chaos. He knew too well from no one caring about the ups and downs of his dreams.
The book "Inferiority and Transcendence" says:
The uncertainty of life is exactly the source of our hope.
And what Stephen Chow’s movie conveys is in a chaotic moment, this hope that may be bleak but still worthy of persistence.
Thousands of mills and tens of thousands of blows are still strong, no matter how winds in the southeast, west and north.
Nonsense, compassionate
Someone asked, was it Stephen Chow who made the nonsense, or did it make the nonsense?
Perhaps, both are available.
intensively releases illogical jokes to the audience through a fast pace, forming wave after wave of jokes to make the audience feel relaxed. This is the beauty of nonsense.
In fact, it is also the catharsis for Hong Kong people in the 1990s.
As Stephen Chow became more and more involved in film creation, he borrowed more of the shell of nonsensical comedy and put into the core of deeper thinking and humanistic feelings.
Stephen Chow once said:
Many times I will see some unfair and unfair things in society. Do you have the courage to stand up and uphold justice? To be honest, I don’t have the courage to do so, so I can only express my love to the movie.
He always spoke quietly in front of the public, and he put all his emotions and concerns into the movie.
So, we see that " Mermaid " says:
"If there is no drop of clean water or a mouthful of clean air on this earth, no matter how much money you earn, it will be a dead end."
From small characters to the environment, Stephen Chow's movie perspectives are becoming more and more diverse.
But as Stephen Chow becomes increasingly consolidated as a comedy master, negative news about him is also rampant.
More and more voices publicly criticized him for being a "too-super director", "not being able to be a human being", "a tyrant on the set"...
In an interview, Chai Jing once asked: "Do you accept it in the face of so many public opinions and opinions?"
Stephen Chow was silent for a long time and said: "I don't know, why it turned out like this."
The answer may be a glimpse of the clues from the Mao Shunyun who played with him in the early days.
She said:
Stephen Chow is a strange person. As actors, we all want to do our duty, but he is not. When I was acting with him, he had a very bad temper and asked to change the script all day long. He got angry if he was not satisfied.
Maybe it’s true that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
Stephen Chow's paranoia for his works makes him incompatible with the people around him.
A viewers like the works he handed over due to paranoia, but colleagues can't stand this kind of sluggishness in human feelings.
Wang Jing said: "Stephen Chow's vicissitudes and melancholy are from beginning to end. He seems to leave all his smile on the screen, as if in life you have to pay first if you want to see him laugh."
Like the compassion implied in a nonsensical movie, Stephen Chow also has an AB side. As a comedian, he is a pessimist.
Those crazy laughter in the movie are all disguises of crying.
Ma Yun once said that the movies of Chinese people being Stephen Chow must be watched, and Jin Yong 's novels must be read.
Unfortunately, every time Stephen Chow is released, there will always be a bad voice saying that he has been in trouble.
Stephen Chow answered seriously: "I also hate that I am not capable enough, not smart enough, and not thinking fast enough. I hope I can be faster because there is no time."
The answer is not very important whether it is modest or inferior. After all, it should be more fortunate that Stephen Chow is still there.
In this era, we still need Stephen Chow's movies.
Whether it is the confusion of just graduated or the confusion of middle-aged people, we still need to draw the light of the little people from the movie.
Just as in "The King of Comedy" Liu Piaopiao said blankly: "The front is pitch black and you can't see anything."
optimistic Yin Tianchou said: "No, it will be beautiful after dawn."
