At the 25th Golden Horse Awards, Stephen Chow won the Best Supporting Actor Award, which is the first major film award won by Stephen Chow, and the next time he stands on the Golden Horse podium, he will have to wait until "Kung Fu" 17 years later. When Stephen Chow won the Best Supporting Actor, the Golden Horse Awards were in a brilliant era, Hong Kong and Taiwan artists attached great importance to this award ceremony, if a new actor can win the Golden Horse Award, it means that from then on, the star is frank, and Chow Xingchi also started from this award and gradually moved to the peak of acting.
Zhou Xingchi, who was slightly green at that time, thanked five people at the award ceremony, in addition to the familiar Li Xiuxian, Wan Ziliang and Zeng Zhiwei, as well as Li Jiming and Huang Baiwen, Li Jiming is a famous director, who filmed Ren Dahua's film "Love of glass guns", has died of illness in 2016, we want to talk about Huang Baiwen here. Zhou Xingchi's award-winning work that year was "Thunderbolt Pioneer", and Huang Baiwen is the director of this film, and there can be such a logical chain: if there is no Huang Baiwen, there will be no "Thunderbolt Pioneer", without "Thunderbolt Pioneer", there will be no Zhou Xingchi award, and there will be no later Xingye without Zhou Xingchi's award, so it should not be exaggerated to regard Huang Baiwen as Zhou Xingchi's benefactor.
Huang Baiwen, Zhou Xingchi and Zhou Huimin
Huang Bowen had a bad childhood, his parents divorced not long after he was born, he lived with his father, but his father did not take good care of him and threw him to his grandmother. As a child, Huang Bowen lived with his grandmother and two sisters (father's sister, Editor's Note) in a rented house, and lived under the fence for a long time, which made Huang Bowen develop a taciturn character. At the age of 14, a relative recommended Huang Baiwen to go to the navigation school, thinking that there is food and housing without looking at other people's faces, Huang Baiwen immediately agreed, three years later, 17-year-old Huang Baiwen became a seafarer and drifted at sea for five years.
After growing up, Huang Bowen began to dominate his own destiny, he was tired of life at sea, so he applied for the wireless artist training class, his first session was the sixth period, and among the students in the same period were Lu Liangwei and Chen Yulian, who later became big stars. Huang Baiwen has a wide nose and a square mouth, and looks a bit like Shao's martial arts star Fu Sheng, who has played Guo Jing in the movie version of "The Legend of the Eagle Shooter", but Huang Baiwen does not have Fu Sheng's qingxiu and handsomeness, coupled with his personal introverted, lonely, and not good at socializing, so he did not get too many performance opportunities after graduating from the training class, but not long after, Huang Bowen met a nobleman, this nobleman is Zheng Zeshi.
Zheng Zeshi brought Huang Baiwen from the television circle to the film circle, he asked Huang Baiwen if he was interested in doing behind-the-scenes work, and Huang Baiwen, who had made no progress for several years in front of the curtain, accepted Zheng Zeshi's suggestion, and soon became Li Xiuxian's assistant. When Li Xiuxian directed and acted in "Public Servant", Huang Bowen was an assistant director, and he also played a small villain black boy in the film. After the release of "Servant", the jury of the Golden Horse Awards informed Huang Bowen that he was nominated for best supporting actor, but just a week before the award ceremony, Huang Bowen, who had prepared the dress, received a notice from the jury: mistaken, mistaken, the nominated person was taibao who played Ah Cheng in "Public Servant", not you Huang Bowen.
This oolong incident of the Golden Horse Awards made Huang Bowen extremely disappointed, perhaps because of this incident, Huang Bowen slowly lost enthusiasm for acting after that, and concentrated on following Li Xiuxian behind the scenes, he directed two Chow Sing Chi films "Thunderbolt Pioneer" and "Wind and Rain Together", Li Xiuxian are both supervising producers, which shows that Li Xiuxian is not only Chow Sing Chi's benefactor, but also Wong Pak Man's benefactor.
Just when Huang Bowen's career was going well, he was suddenly diagnosed with lymphoma, and he was just 30 years old. Just in the prime of his life, he was plagued by a serious illness, and Huang Bowen did not lament the fate, but chose to face it positively, because he already had a strong spiritual pillar - his daughter. When Huang Bowen fell ill, his daughter was only a few years old, and he vowed to watch her grow up, so he began a long fight against cancer. Behind the scenes of the film is not only tired, but also often under great psychological pressure, under the advice of doctors, Huang Bowen chose to change careers in the mid-1990s and opened a convenience store.
Huang Bowen eventually succeeded in fighting cancer, his daughter is also 30 years old this year, "working in a headhunting company, very filial piety," Huang Bowen told reporters proudly. Now over sixty years old, Huang Bowen occasionally plays a supporting role in some Hong Kong dramas because of "technical itching", and the suffering of childhood and the illness of the prime years are already passing, for him, everything is fine now.
