1997 before Ching-Ying Lam died, why did he call Sammo Hung: Don't let people see my body? I think maybe Ching-Ying Lam thought he was a star after all and wanted to leave a good image in his mind, so he said this.
In the heyday of Ching-Ying Lam and Hong Kong films, the image of "Uncle Nine" created by Ching-Ying Lam spread all over the mainland, and his zombie films were scary and funny, which made people nervous and relaxed for a while.
The zombie movie starring him is a childhood nightmare, but it is also a classic among the classics. Only as early as 23 years ago, Ching-Ying Lam died of illness, but the magical world he created remained in the hearts of the audience forever.
Ching-Ying Lam, Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Yuan Wah, Yuan Qiu and Yuan Biao are all students studying together. Due to poor family background, Ching-Ying Lam dropped out of school after the second grade and joined the Beijing Opera Troupe.
A coincidence brought him into contact with the film industry. As a Peking Opera student, he had a good figure, so he chose to join the film and television circle and start as an original stuntman.
Ching-Ying Lam is a diligent person. Although he is a stuntman, he never misses a chance to learn. At that time, Hong Kong martial arts films were very popular, and Ching-Ying Lam would practice martial arts alone whenever he had the chance.
197 1 year, he changed from a stuntman to a martial arts instructor and got to know the noble Bruce Lee. He finally got the chance to be a supporting actor. The two have worked together in several films. Bruce Lee is already a kung fu star, so Ching-Ying Lam is not far behind. But after Bruce Lee's death, Ching-Ying Lam lost his way again and again.
Sammo Hung, a classmate, saw Ching-Ying Lam's talent, so he took Ching-Ying Lam under the banner of Hong Jiaban, which became an important turning point for him. Maybe Ching-Ying Lam didn't think of it. Later, he set off a "zombie movie" craze and became an "exorcist" in everyone's mind.
1985, Mr. Zombie was released, which broke the box office of 20 million movies of the same type for the first time. The film became popular in Southeast Asia as soon as it was released, and his image was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In the Zombie Family, Mr. Ghost, One Eyebrow Road flyover and other films, Ching-Ying Lam used the same image to slay and exorcise demons in various zombie films, and many directors imitated the filming in the later period, but the classics can never be surpassed.
Ching-Ying Lam has gained a lot of popularity and imperfect relationships. In the filming of a zombie movie, she fell in love with actress King-Tan Yuen. Although their ages are several years apart, King-Tan Yuen, who is outgoing, doesn't care.
At that time, the relationship between the two sides had reached the point where we could talk about marriage, but Ching-Ying Lam suddenly said that he wanted to break up. Why? It turned out that Ching-Ying Lam was diagnosed with liver cancer, and it was still in the advanced stage. In order not to drag down his girlfriend, he had to let the other person leave her in this way.
At that time, Ching-Ying Lam was addicted to alcohol and had no regular rest time all the year round, which led to his endocrine disorder and developed into cancer under the long-term trust.
A phone call1On October 5th, Sammo Hung received a phone call from Ching-Ying Lam. At this time, he was on his deathbed: "Don't let everyone see my body."
Ching-Ying Lam gave this sentence to Sammo Hung and said that his funeral should be held in the form of Taoism. During his illness, he did not accept anyone's visit, but left this sentence.
In the end, he failed to beat cancer and left this world. According to his last wish, the funeral was very simple and Taoist, but the brokerage company took the initiative to make it a Buddhist funeral, and the layout of the mourning hall was very strange. It is rumored that there are many black butterflies flying at the funeral scene. I don't know if it is true or not.
On the day of the funeral, Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, Tommy Tam and others carried the coffin for him. King-Tan Yuen also appeared as his wife at the memorial service in Ching-Ying Lam. It can be seen that she was very sad, and Sammo Hung cried with her.
Ching-Ying Lam's life ended like this. Although there is no "nine uncles" in the world, "nine uncles" have always lived in the hearts of the audience and will always be remembered.
Conclusion/KLOC-0 One night in 997, a few nights before his death, he called Sammo Hung. On the phone, he said to him in a weak voice: Come to the hospital. The phone also told a story, that is, Ching-Ying Lam said not to let others see his body.
So Sammo Hung hurried to the hospital. When he arrived at the hospital, he saw his good brother and instantly understood the reason why he refused to see everyone. Ching-Ying Lam's face is already very bad because of his long illness.
It's not that I don't want to see you, but I'm afraid that my appearance will scare others and I can only hide my thoughts in my stomach.
