On July 1, Mr. Andy Lau, a superstar in the Hong Kong film and television industry, was awarded the "Silver Bauhinia Star" by the Hong Kong SAR Government. This is not only the highest affirmation of his 40-year acting career, but also the pride of the entire Chinese cultural and artistic circles.
I vaguely remember the scene when Andy was awarded the [Bronze Bauhinia Star and Medal of Honor] title that year. Just a few years later, he reached the peak again, and this time he received the Silver Bauhinia Star that was even more precious than before.
For the super-idol who is well-known on the stage, this award is undoubtedly the most precious honor.
Andy Lau is a legend among the kings of contemporary entertainment, and he deserves this award for his outstanding film and television skills and extensive artistic fields. From a young talent, all the way through the thorns, to the leader, now he is an evergreen tree in the art world. It is no wonder that the Hong Kong government has given such high recognition and appreciation.
You must know that this time, the SAR government announced a total of 502 winners. In addition to Andy's Silver Bauhinia, there are also a number of celebrities who have received this award, including business elites such as Li Jiajie and Lin Shuzhe, who have been awarded the highest Grand Bauhinia Medal, and political celebrities such as Leung Mei-fan and Yuen Ka-ning, who have been awarded the Gold Bauhinia Star. It can be seen that the gold content of the Silver Bauhinia Star is high!
So, how did Andy Lau stand out? In his acceptance speech, the Hong Kong government said: "Mr. Lau has been engaged in acting for more than 40 years, and is well-known and award-winning in the entertainment industry, and was elected Vice Chairman of the China Film Association in 2024. Over the years, Mr. Lau has been enthusiastic about public welfare, supporting the development of sports for people with disabilities, and establishing a charitable foundation to support the underprivileged. "
The awarding of the Silver Bauhinia Star is not only a high evaluation of Andy's film and television achievements, but also a sincere appreciation for his outstanding contributions to public welfare and charity. In this regard, Andy Lau is definitely a man of virtue and art, worthy of the reputation of "hero".
In addition to Andy, there are other seniors in the entertainment industry who won the award this time. For example, Hu Jixiu, a 92-year-old actor who has been well-known in the film industry for more than 70 years, was awarded the Bronze Bauhinia Star. It can be seen that the Hong Kong SAR government respects and recognizes the older generation of artists.
In the younger generation, outstanding athletes such as golfer Hui Longyi and badminton star Chan Nian Chi have also made Hong Kong proud. They have been awarded the Medal of Honour and the Bronze Bauhinia Star, which is also evident in the importance that the government attaches to sports.
Of course, the most touching thing is the scene when Andy Lau personally accepted the Silver Bauhinia Star accompanied by Jackie Chan and Chow Yun-fat. The three entertainment industry bigwigs hugged and made love on the stage, and the scene was extremely warm and touching, which made people feel a sense of warmth. It turns out that in this prosperous Xiangjiang, sincere friendship is the most cherished.
The scene of Andy Lau joining hands with Sammo Hung, Bin Yongwen and other old friends also added a touch of emotion to this award ceremony. As he said in his humble acceptance speech, "I can't do without you today, and I thank you for your support and encouragement over the years." Although a generation of heavenly kings has gained fame and fortune and returned to their hometowns, they are still humble and courteous, remembering their old friends. This is the true Andy spirit!
Time flies, and no one can stop the pace of the passage of time. But as Andy said, there is no time to look back on if you have a dream. He maintains his original intention and persistent pursuit of art, and will continue to write his own life legend in the future.
Silver Bauhinia is the glory of life, but also the starting point of a new journey. I wish Andy Lau to ride the wind and waves and sail all the way.
