Ten Brothers is not a classic in Hong Kong movies. It may seem ridiculous now, but it is really a wonderful childhood memory. It was really interesting at the time.

The film was jointly produced by Yongsheng and Changhong Film and Television Production, directed by Li Lichi, directed by Gu Dezhao, Mo King Lee and Man-Fai Cheng, and co-starred by Sharla Cheung, Zhong Zhentao, Ashton Chen, Hao Shaowen, Luo Jiaying and Xu Jinjiang.
On the movie poster, the publicity plan: a wonderful masterpiece costing HK$ 30 million, the first file of the holiday, will definitely be a happy film.
30 million yuan investment, but 199565438+was released in China and Hong Kong in February, and only sold 104 10000 HK dollars, ranking19 in the box office list of China and Hong Kong this year. The winner of that year was Jackie Chan's Pink Zone.
First, the myths and legends of China
Zazie Hoko
Ten Brothers is similar to Huluwa in some areas, but it is not from Huluwa, but from a well-known fairy tale in Guangdong folk customs.
"China Folk Tales Collection" contains the story of "Water pushes the Great Wall". A mother-in-law gave birth to ten children: clairvoyance, golden eyes, strong king, steel head, pride, long legs, most of them, big feet, big mouth and big eyes.
Among them, the eye is bright and the ear is slippery, which is mentioned in Journey to the West and the list of gods.
The first person to put this story on the big screen was the film director Ng Wui, the father of Bao Longxing in "Do Nine Sesame Officials".

1959 version of Ten Brothers was directed by Ng Wui and co-starred by Zhang Ying, Yanqing Luo and Shi Jian, which ensured the best animation special effects under relatively limited standards and produced a classic Cantonese feature film suitable for all ages.
It is worth mentioning that Shi Jian played the role of Liu Dashuai, and in the Li Lichi version, he became an old man who told stories to his children, which is more or less a tribute.
In addition, ATV and TVB produced their own TV series. Yin Tianzhao starred in the ATV version of 1985, and Lin Wenlong and Guo Keying starred in the TVB version in 2007.
According to the story, the Li Lichi movie of 1995 should be based on the Ng Wui version of 1959, with some interesting plots, such as English-speaking scalpers, plus version of fruits and vegetables, and its lucky tree and "magic mirror".

The movie is a standard Cantonese comedy movie or a fairy tale skill movie. The plot is a bit grandiose but full of artistic creativity, not only brotherhood, but also maternal love. Now the remake is still good.
Second, Hao Shaowen and Ashton Chen.
Although there are Sharla Cheung and Zhong Zhentao in the film, only Hao Shaowen and Ashton Chen have real box office influence.
Sharla Cheung left Yongsheng on 1994 after filming "God of Gambling 2". The following year, he set up his own company to shoot A Dream of One Thousand and One Nights. However, because Tony Leung Ka Fai left the crew, he lost more than 1000 million, and then he performed "Chasing Women's Dreams 95" himself, leaving only a little damage.
For "Ten Brothers", it should better reflect the worldly wisdom of Yongsheng Film Company, but Sharla Cheung only has box office influence with Xingye, Ng Man Tat, or Jet Li and Chow Yun Fat, so it is difficult for me to carry a movie.
Yongsheng produced "Sharla Cheung" and Changhong Film and Television produced "Hao Shaowen and Ashton Chen" with the gold medal. This pair of child stars formed 1994, which became popular in Taiwan Province Province because of Shaolin Pop and Laughing Boy 2: Shaolin Pop ii Monastery.
Hao Shaowen's funny humor, coupled with Ashton Chen's time, seems to be a children's version of Star Master and Jet Li, which created a different flame and attracted many audiences. To this day, they still miss the time when they were partners.
The following year, they starred in Dragon and Shaolin Temple Erluan Temple 2, and their popularity further soared.
In the same year, he participated in Ten Brothers, in which Ashton Chen played Li Quan III, a martial arts movie was a burden, and Hao Shaowen played Tian Fei V. At first, it was useless, but finally he succeeded in growing wings and killing monsters behind Ashton Chen's back. At that moment, two people were like love.
When the two brothers grow up, it seems that they have encountered obstacles in their acting career. As a posture actor, Ashton Chen has not found his exact position so far. Some time ago, I also explored in the online movie "The Legend of the Red Man Hunting the Devil", which is really a pity.

On the other hand, Hao Shaowen is not much better. His childhood spirituality and humor are gone. In recent years, he has appeared in many films, but the roles that left a deep impression on him were Xie Ming, the fat man, and the girl we chased together ten years ago.
Third, the status quo of the "Ten Brothers"
Ashton Chen, the third child, and Ashton Chen, the fifth child, have been introduced in detail above, but rarely mentioned below.
0 1 Big Brother: Luo Jiaying.
1995, Luo Jiaying was 49 years old and Sharla Cheung was only 27 years old. Calling her mother is a big problem.
As an artist of Cantonese Opera and Cantonese Opera, Luo Jiaying was only introduced in the 1990s, but he was lucky enough to cooperate with Master Xing and create a role that many audiences are familiar with.
China 007' s "scientist", Tang Sanzang who nagged in the Chinese Odyssey, and the French-Indian version of the Chinese Odyssey.

Let a person admire the affection between him and Wang Mingquan, the eldest female boss. They have walked hand in hand for decades and are loving couples in the circle.
02. Second child: Chi Ching Kam.
I graduated from the wireless network artist training class. Although I have played such classic series as Qin Xun Ji, Injustice and Genesis, they are all small people and hard to impress. Now I have no information for a long time.
03. Mumpi IV: Michael Lam
The self-healing ability of skin is extremely strong, and most of them are repaired instantly. This setting is very powerful
Michael Lam entered the business in 1990s, and one of his familiar characters should be the overlord Long Ge of Young and Dangerous 4. In addition, he also appeared in films such as 97 Happy Families, Storm of the Haojiang River, True Hero, etc. After being banned, he fled into an empty net and actively promoted Buddhism.
04. Copper Six: Miao Wei
Invincible in bronze and iron. I heard that Miao Wei is not a core member. Because of his unique appearance, he was favored by Li Lichi, and he disappeared after the film was broadcast.
05, High Leg Seven: Zhou Min
Zazie Hoko
The change of feet is long and fast.
Zhou Min was born as a martial artist in the early days, and then gradually developed into a martial arts instructor and film director, and independently directed a series of "The Female Escort in the Song Dynasty" and "Guerrilla Heroes".
06, Transfer Point 8: Wen Zhongsong
Tong Xing Wen Cong became famous and debuted. There are good main performances in "Amazing Stars", "Groups of Three and Five" and "Peter Pan", which are suitable for playing some roles such as "bad students".
Later, he transformed into a film director, and the famous film "Anti-Black" on 20 17 was, in a sense, a Hong Kong film dedicated to the glorious past. Now I want to be a film director. When will Anti-Black 2 be released?
07, Dakoujiu: Li Jianren
It's like Luo Jiaying's skirt, I didn't recognize it, and Koujiu is like a flower in Li Jianren.
Li Jianren's fame is inseparable from his classmate Xing Ye. The "flower-like" modeling design first appeared in the martial arts champion Su Qier. Since then, this name has followed him for half his life, and every appearance has left a deep impression on everyone.
I was hospitalized once two years ago, and now I have returned to the hospital covered in blood, wandering in online movies again.
08, shout ten: daisy.
Noisy, tears have diagnostic and therapeutic effects.
Zazie Hoko
At the film level, he has participated in Explosion Order, Spicy Supreme, Beast Interpol and so on. On the TV drama level, I have performed many Taiwanese dramas, such as "Spicy Fresh Teacher" and "Secret Love for You".
The acting career is neither too hot nor too cold, but the emotional history seems to be rich.
Twenty-six years ago, there were no three actors in Ten Brothers, including Shi Jian, who began to tell stories to children, Zheng Zu (the brown bear coach of the king of destruction) under Xu Jinjiang, and Ceng Jinrong (the chemistry teacher who played Zhong Zhentao's father).
After many years, I still admire the stunt of the "Ten Brothers" and think that they can still form a revenge alliance. what do you think?
