1992, Huang Baiming, who plans to shoot the movie "Happy Family", has confirmed that the hero is George Lam. As a result, George Lam was not in Hongkong at that time, so he had to give up the candidate.

Later, he thought of his partner Chow Yun Fat. As a result, Chow Yun Fat only took the opposite film "I Love Twisted Wood" and failed to participate in his film.

Overwhelmed, Huang Baiming finally turned his attention to Stephen Chow, whose career was in full swing at that time. Unexpectedly, he asked for 8 million in the right direction.

In fact, Stephen Chow's salary at that time was really worth 8 million, but the reason why he asked for help in Huang Baiming was because he had been rejected by a company in Huang Baiming.

Throughout Huang Baiming's life, although his personal acting career really developed well, he really missed a lot when meeting people or opportunities came.

For example, in addition to Stephen Chow, he also rejected the powerful filmmaker Maggie Cheung and fired a talented director like Wong Kar-wai!

But if you say that he is unwilling to spend money on artists and willing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to sign a contract with Donnie Yen, why does his attitude towards different artists change so much?

What happened to him who gave up indulging in money life in order to accompany his wife to fight cancer?

Huang Baiming was born in Jiangmen, Guangdong, and 1946 was born in Kowloon, Hong Kong. Long before he was born, his father moved to Hong Kong from Guangdong with his family.

His father has been engaged in business since Hong Kong. With his insight and determination, he has become a man of the hour in Hong Kong business before he was born. Therefore, Huang Baiming has been living a comfortable life since childhood.

He has eight brothers and sisters, and he is the youngest child in the family. Perhaps because of the older generation's concept of "eldest son and grandson", Huang Baiming was spoiled by his family, especially his grandmother, and was simply spoiled.

After learning that he likes film art, his father and other family members are firmly opposed, and only his grandmother supports him in pursuing his dreams.

At the age of 20, with the support of her grandmother, Huang Baiming entered the Macao Qingcun Radio Station after graduating from high school and worked hard to realize her artistic dream.

Here, Huang Baiming works as a radio announcer and editor. After a short time, he felt that the job was not suitable for him, so he left the radio station and went to Hong Kong Qingyi Drama Club to become an actor in the drama club.

In addition to performing on the stage, Huang Baiming, who inherited his father's shrewd business mind, understood that acting alone was hopeless, so he began to learn acting and director's work, and soon became an actor, screenwriter and director in a drama club.

I spent several years on the stage of drama, and didn't enter the wireless TV station until 1970 and became an actor in film and television drama. In the same year, he participated in the work "Folklore".

In addition to the promotion of acting career, Huang Baiming also gained love during this period, and met Xu Wenjuan, the agent who worked in the wireless TV station at that time.

Although Xu Wenjuan's popularity and popularity were not as high as his in the future, she was also a goddess who surprised many people when she was young.

In daily cooperation, Huang Baiming gradually fell in love with this low-key and kind girl.

He soon fell in love with Xu Wenjuan, and soon fell in love with each other, and entered the marriage hall with her. After marriage, he gave birth to a son, a daughter and two children.

At the age of 24, he solved the major events in his life early, which enabled Huang Baiming to concentrate more on his career. He has been working hard since he got married in order to make his family have a good life.

From the front to the back, Huang Baiming, who didn't develop well on the screen because of her appearance disadvantage, gradually focused on her identity as a screenwriter and director.

Not long after that, his script Vortex was made into a movie, so he officially entered the film circle and became a filmmaker.

Realizing that if Huang Baiming wants to gain a foothold in this circle and master the right to speak, it must own its own industry,

1979, founded Struggle Film Company alone. Because the company was operating well at that time and many artists were popular, his company attracted the attention of many big coffee in the circle.

The following year, Shi Tian, a famous Hong Kong actor who had participated in The Monk, The Snake's Skillful Hands and Nothing, and Mai Jia, a bald guy who is famous for his Best Partner series, joined his company.

After the reorganization of the company, it became a new art city film company. Our familiar classic Hong Kong films such as Ghost Horse, Happy Ghost Series and I Love Cordate telosma were all released by their company.

Among them, in the series "Happy Ghost", Huang Baiming not only wrote and directed, but also acted in person, which became an instant hit with the role of "Happy Ghost".

Nowadays, when many people mention him, they will still think of the image he played in this series of movies, which shows how deep an impression he left on everyone.

At the peak of the development of the New Art City Film Company, the three of them almost monopolized more than half of the Hong Kong film market. Because of this, many young artists came here in succession, hoping to become artists of this company, including the talented Stephen Chow at that time.

Before Stephen Chow became popular, he came to the New Art City with his resume, but he wanted to get a chance to film, but he was turned away, so Huang Baiming asked him to film, and he made a scene of 8 million yuan.

It is worth mentioning that although Huang Baiming spent 8 million yuan to invite him to play, with the box office appeal of Stephen Chow, the film won more than 40 million box office, and Huang Baiming finally earned a lot of money.

I don't know whether to resolve this contradiction. Later, recalling this incident, Huang Baiming said: "At that time, the resume was not handed to us at all, and we later learned that we missed Stephen Chow."

We don't know whether what he said is true or not.

In addition to Stephen Chow, there was another actress who later became popular at home and abroad. It is said that she was also rejected by New Art City. This is Maggie Cheung.

The dramatic scene is that after Maggie Cheung became famous, Huang Baiming also spent a lot of money to invite her back when filming the film "Happy Family".

If the first two times were careless, the expulsion of Wong Kar-wai is definitely one of the most regrettable things in Huang Baiming's acting career.

Wong Kar-wai was just a player when the New Art City Company was developing. Because every submission is particularly slow, and many times the submitted works can not satisfy the company, once the company commented on his works: "waste paper!" "

Therefore, Huang Baiming directly told him to pack up and leave, but unexpectedly, many years later, Wong Kar-wai not only wrote such a good masterpiece, but also directed such good works as Early Spring, The Story of Teddy Boy, Chongqing Forest and 2046.

Judging from the performance achievements, the future development of Wong Kar-wai is not worse than that of Huang Baiming. From this point of view, it was really strength that hit him in the face!

But we have to say that Huang Baiming, who missed so many coffees, did win a lot of popularity in his acting career, such as Donnie Yen, whom we are familiar with.

With the series of films "Ip Man" produced by Huang Baiming, Donnie Yen became popular not only in Hongkong, but also in the Mainland. With these films, he was successfully promoted from an ordinary kung fu actor to a martial arts superstar.

It is worth mentioning that Donnie Yen, who was praised as a kung fu superstar by him, later paid a sky-high price, just like Stephen Chow made Ip Man 4, and paid him 654.38 billion yuan directly, plus 5% of the box office share.

Huang Baiming didn't say much about it, but he promised Donnie Yen decisively. Many people thought Huang Baiming was stupid and rich at first, but we didn't know until the movie was released. The movie with a box office of 65.438 billion+200 million made him rich again!

Despite the ups and downs of his career, for Huang Baiming, these are things that he can control and change. The only thing that made him feel powerless was his wife's illness.

1997, shortly after Huang Baiming finished filming "97 Happy Families", his wife Xu Wenjuan was diagnosed with cancer, and it was terminal ovarian cancer.

Seeing his wife's haggard face and complexion, Huang Baiming finally realized that he had been busy with his work since he got married, neglecting the care of his family and children.

So when the doctor said to him, "Your wife has a cancer that is difficult to cure, and the success rate is less than 3%, you should be mentally prepared."

Huang Baiming still firmly said: "Even if there is only one percent success rate, I will not give up on her!"

In order to take care of his wife and give her peace of mind to treat her illness, he also gave up the life of getting drunk and feasting outside and came to accompany his wife every day after work.

In addition to him, his two children are also very sensible to accompany their mother to fight cancer. Fortunately, through the efforts of their family of four, Xu Wenjuan finally overcame cancer in 20 12.

In order to commemorate 15 years of accompanying his wife to fight cancer, Huang Baiming also wrote a book called "Surviving from Rescue", which clearly recorded the dull and happy life of the couple in detail.

Huang Baiming devoted himself to the performing arts all his life, and now he is 75 years old. He brought us too many excellent works in his life. As an actor, he really deserves our love.

In life, he and his wife Xu Wenjuan have been together for 52 years since they got married on 1970.

Compared with many male stars in the same period, Huang Baiming has done his best to achieve this goal, because after he became famous, he had a lot of scandals, or directly made such behaviors as "abandoning his wife and children".

Fortunately, God didn't mistreat him and let the couple share joys and sorrows. They are very happy now.
