Zheng Zeshi's wife told Fortune.

Singer Wu Yekun exposed this party photo on social platforms, which shows Oscar winner Zheng Zeshi celebrating his 69th birthday.

Wu Yekun, Jing Wong's daughters Wang Zihan, Han Cai and other younger generations all celebrated with him. There are peaches and cakes. Both Chinese and western birthdays are good.

The situation in Zheng Zeshi is still very good, as before. I can't see at all that he is 69 years old and very close to the past. Zheng Zeshi's happiest birthday is his wife 14 years younger than him. Lin Yanming is 55 years old, but he looks well maintained, with black hair and good figure.

In fact, Zheng Zeshi's birthday was at the end of last month, but his friends celebrated him in succession, which showed his popularity in the circle. Not long ago, I celebrated and ate cake with my old friends Alice Chan and Jiang Hao.

His family was poor when he was a child. Encouraged by his mother, he entered the entertainment circle. He experienced debt and serious illness, but he was not defeated, all of which lost his wife's silent support and encouragement.

Let's take a look at the story of the former highest-paid comedian.

Zheng Zeshi was born in Hongkong in 1950s. There were six brothers and sisters in his family at that time. He is the boss, one brother and four sisters. Because there are too many children, the family's economic situation has been not optimistic.

Zheng Zeshi is the oldest in this family. He has to help his mother take care of several younger brothers and sisters since he was a child, and his parents have to go out to work to earn money, cook and clean. He recalled this experience and said that he always cooked behind his sister's back.

Besides cooking with my sister-in-law, I have to work with my sister-in-law to earn money. My mother took plastic flowers home, several children stuck together, and then my mother sold them.

Even so, the expenses at home are still very tight. He has just been in middle school for a year, and his younger brother has been admitted to middle school, but only one person in the family can afford to go to school and can only give his only quota to his younger brother.

Moreover, he went out to work, got good grades and made money. "I chose a job. After coming out, I chose to be a jewelry mechanic. "

Zheng Zeshi wanted to be an actor since he was a child. At that time, she saw Feng Baobao's plays. "Every time I watch her movies, I am particularly enjoyable. Sometimes she becomes a little princess, and sometimes she becomes smaller. I didn't know what an actor was at that time. I think it's good to be a star. "

When I was in the fourth grade, the teacher asked everyone what their wishes were and what they said. Zheng Zeshi's answer surprised the teacher: "Then I won't use the word actor. I wrote: I want to be a star. "

However, the teacher did not agree with his idea, but severely reprimanded him. "You are greedy for vanity. Start over, I will punish you. " The teacher tore up the homework in a rage.

I worked as a jewelry apprentice for five years and became a master with a monthly salary of HK$ 2,000. But he also faces difficult choices. In order to realize his childhood wish, he took part in TVB's "performance competition" and won the championship. He had a chance to sign a contract with TVB, but he only earned 400 yuan a month.

Dad disapproved of him being an actor and angrily scolded, "You are crazy. You earn 2000 yuan and you do 400 yuan." My mother firmly supported him: "You go, you try, this is your dream, this is what you want to do in your heart."

After winning the acting contest, he signed a one-year contract with Wireless: "I'll offer you a job for the first six months, but I don't need to sign a contract with you for the last six months, because if no one asks for you before, I think you are useless. I can't invite you for the next six months. "

The where will you go contract signed six months ago was hard-won for Zheng Zeshi. How could he give up easily? Considering the family situation, he and his mother have a one-year contract: "I promised my mother and gave me one year." I failed. I quit. I will never touch this industry again. I want to go back to my original job. "

Lv Liangwei, who was engaged in wireless work with him at that time, was attending the sixth period of wireless TV training class. Because their families are similar, they feel a little pity: "I was very good with him at that time, and I was often together, bitter brothers." Everyone is poor. "

At that time, I just started to play a supporting role. For example, when a pop singer sings, she will dance with him. What impressed him most was doing a variety show with Chow Yun Fat: "When they talked about this play, I listened to a lot and learned a lot. Looking back now, it turns out that Teacher Zhou's inspiration to me was very important in my whole growth process. "

The relationship between Zheng Zeshi and Chow Yun Fat is really good. When Chow Yun Fat married his ex-wife Yu Anan, Zheng Zeshi was his best man, and the other two best men were Lv Liangwei and Andy Lau.

1979 after joining wireless for three years, he appeared in his first TV series "Four Eyes Detective", in which Zheng Zeshi was a supporter of Lv Liangwei. "I played a stupid but very clever detective."

What really made him famous was the film Why Me, which was directed and acted by himself. Zheng Zeshi plays a fat cat with mental retardation, whose simple and honest appearance makes people feel sympathy and love.

When asked why he chose this role, Zheng Zeshi expressed his thoughts: "Because there was resistance to imbeciles in society at that time, I hope that through this film, everyone will know that imbeciles also have a lovely side. Let's not discriminate against him. "

Because of this film, Zheng Zeshi won the Best Actor and the Best Jury Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards. Three years later, he made a sequel, Fat Cat Wandering, which was also very popular.

However, life always has ups and downs. At the peak of his acting career, he suffered a huge blow: "1993, he lost nearly 20 million Hong Kong dollars. During that time, it was really painful. He really sold everything except my relatives, my parents and my children."

Not only is he heavily in debt, but even his friends are unwilling to help: "A good friend may have his problems, but he can't help you. Find your responsibility and forget it. I will bear it myself. As long as I don't die, I can come up with a solution to the problem. "

Zheng Zeshi entered the business world very late. After entering business at the age of 26, he didn't become famous until his early 30 s. Before meeting his wife, he decided to be single for life: "When I first set foot in the film and television industry, I saw too many colleagues who were either lovers who didn't engage in ambiguity or just cared about their own small lives and didn't even want friends." So he made up his mind not to get married.

In an interview, Zheng Zeshi said that he and his wife Lin Yanming met while filming. At that time, he found that Lin Yanming seemed particularly unconquerable and relaxed among a group of infighting actresses, which made him fall in love at first sight.

After dating Lin Yanming for two years, Zheng Zeshi proposed to her. 199 1 year, Zheng Zeshi proposed to his wife. At that time, a friend asked him to identify the ring and put it in Lin Yanming's hand. He asked his wife if she liked this style. After getting a positive answer, he said a prepared sentence: "If you like it, just wear it all the time and never take it off, okay?"

1993 is heavily in debt due to poor management of the company. During that time, he worked hard to make money and pay off his debts. Finally, before 1997, he paid off all his debts.

1993 During the economic crisis, his wife always supported him without complaint. I am alone with a son and a daughter, and I have to silently support Zheng Zeshi: "It doesn't matter, my family is slowly embarrassed, there is always a way!"

Speaking of his wife, Zheng Zeshi is very grateful. It is difficult for his wife to take care of the children alone. He said that his happiest thing is to make money for his wife and make his family live better. He publicly admitted his wife, and knowing her was the second luckiest thing in his life.

Because of years of uninterrupted shooting, it has a great impact on his health, and diabetes is getting worse and worse, which has been tormenting him. Fortunately, under the considerate care of his wife, he helped him adjust his diet and finally stabilized his condition.

He will also strengthen his exercise, often play bowling with his old friends, and try to keep his weight. "Now I have lost more than 20 kilograms in three years, and I eat 70% to 80% full every day. My food is 50% vegetables and the rest is white meat, such as fish and chicken. Red meat is seldom eaten now. I also lose weight by exercising. I play bowling five days a week and play for two hours a day. "

Besides thanking his wife, he is most grateful to Andy Lau. In his most difficult time, Andy Lau helped him to be the producer of his own film, so he always kept this kindness in mind.
