At the age of 22, he was made famous by Chow Yun-fat. When he was popular, he gave up acting and went into business and was deceived into bankruptcy. At the age of 63, he was farming in Guangdong. Who is it?

In the entertainment industry, fame and fortune are hard to come by.

Even if they can easily earn tens of millions of dollars in salary, there are still many artists who will set up side businesses.

The most common ones are probably food stores, especially hot pot restaurants.

You don’t need to invest too much energy. Many fans come here just for the name.

This has also led to chaos, food hygiene and safety cannot be guaranteed, and problems often arise.

There is also another group of people who have chosen a more difficult path.

Zhou Jie, who became famous for his role as "Erkang" in "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", after experiencing ups and downs, lived a leisurely life of retreating to the countryside, planting rice and listening to the crowing of frogs.

Zhao Liang, who became famous for his role as the "Three Virtues" in "Kangxi's Private Interview", suddenly opened up wasteland and built a chicken farm.

The person I want to talk about today not only farms but also raises chickens, and truly lives his life as a farmer.

He is Hong Kong movie star Liu Weixiong.

Because he quit the entertainment industry early, he is not well known to this day.

However, when it comes to Liu Weixiong’s classic character "Ah Chan", friends who like to watch Hong Kong dramas will definitely be familiar with it.

Liao Weixiong was born in 1957 and joined the Wireless Artist Training Class when he was 20 years old.

His classmates include Lu Liangwei and Chen Yulian. Although he is not outstanding in appearance, he is always the unknown one.

He also joked to Lu Liangwei:

"You are the most handsome in our class. Remember to support me when you become famous."

Unexpectedly, he He was the first to usher in a career turnaround and became popular faster than Lu Liangwei.

Having just graduated from the training class, 22-year-old Liao Weixiong was selected by the crew of "People on the Internet".

The mainland immigrant "Cheng Can" he played in the play gave him the nickname A-can.

The scene of swallowing 30 burgers in one breath also became a hot topic that year.

As soon as he debuted, his partner Chow Yun-fat became famous, and he successfully left a classic role.

Celebrity also needs luck and opportunity. Liao Weixiong used the title of "A Chan" to guest star in many dramas.

His comedy image was also deeply imprinted on the audience's minds, resulting in him not being able to get leading roles for a long time.

It wasn’t until the TVB talent exodus was serious that he had the opportunity to play the leading role.

During this period, he appeared in dramas such as "Tea Pot Family", "Rich Superman", "Brothers and Me", etc., all of which achieved good ratings and response.

But his appearance and personal style have always been his biggest limitations. After 23 years of filming, he is still not rich enough.

In the early 1980s, he began to appear in variety shows, acting funny and imitating some well-known artists.

Slowly, Liao Weixiong lost his ambition and tried to get out of the entertainment industry by going into business.

He used his savings over the years to invest in the karaoke and beauty industry.

Unexpectedly, Liao Weixiong, who did not understand the rules of the industry, was deceived, owed a lot of foreign debt, and had to declare bankruptcy.

So he returned to the entertainment industry, and spent a few years working hard to make money through filming, and only then did he make up for the loopholes.

Debt-free and light-hearted, Liao Weixiong also had a lot of enlightenment and found a new way to make money.

In 2001, Liao Weixiong returned to his hometown in Guangdong and began to develop his own organic farming business.

In the early morning, he drove the tractor to farm; in the evening, he picked up the plow and drove the buffalo back home.

Liao Weixiong is enjoying himself on such a day when he works at sunrise and rests at sunset.

Raising chickens and farming has become his greatest pleasure.

What makes him most happy is that with his hard work, the scale of organic farms is getting bigger and bigger, and the products are also delivered from small places to all parts of the country.

Today, 63-year-old Liao Weixiong is busy with his career and has already turned gray on his temples.

As for his old classmate Lu Liangwei, he is still active in the entertainment industry.

The whole person is also full of energy and maintains a very good figure.

But now Liao Weixiong, when asked what is the most important thing in life.

I said that sentence without thinking: Never be unhappy.

He has experienced troughs, but he does not regard them as adversity, but as growth on the journey of life.

Without the past, Liao Weixiong would not have found inner peace in the countryside, letting time carve out a different look.
