After Grace Chow and Show Lo broke up, Show Lo's true colors were instantly torn apart. The sunny, handsome and inspirational pig turned out to be a cheater.
The persona set up after more than 2 years of debut collapsed in minutes. Although he apologized on the social platform, netizens didn't buy it: the artists who ruined the three views suggested that they should be banned, permanently quit the entertainment circle and not poison the next generation.
No matter how Show Lo argues, no matter how his friends speak for him, it is hard to wash away. After all, what he did touched the bottom line of being a man.
While everyone was condemning Show Lo, someone mentioned Edison Chen, bluntly: compared with Show Lo's written apology, Edison Chen was more responsible. After the "Photo Gate" incident broke out, he held a press conference. He didn't give himself any reason, but even announced that he would quit Hong Kong entertainment circle indefinitely.
Moreover, Edison Chen is different in nature. He is single, so everything he does is normal, but unlike Show Lo, he is cheating, which is a matter of character. Therefore, everyone will accept Edison Chen's apology, but can't forgive Show Lo.
Edison Chen's responsibility lies in that he kept his word. After 28, there is no shadow of Edison Chen on the screen. Not everyone can do this responsibility and keep his promise. 1
On October 7th, 198, Edison Chen was born in Canada. His father, Chen Zemin, was a businessman in Hong Kong. In his early years, he was rich and had a good relationship in business and entertainment. Therefore, Edison Chen almost met all the famous artists in Hong Kong at an early age.
As a rich boy, Edison Chen lives smoothly.
At the age of p>13, my parents divorced. It is said that Edison Chen's father, Chen Zemin, made friends with many male models. Of course, these things were only known when Edison Chen grew up.
He once said: There are too many secrets in our family that I don't know.
The bitterness and helplessness behind this sentence are beyond outsiders' understanding. For ordinary people, that kind of life is too far away from us.
The broken family made Edison Chen develop a rebellious character. Parents deeply felt sorry for their son, so they constantly compensated him financially.
In the early years, Edison Chen lived with his mother in Canada. He always felt that the home was empty and warm. Later, he ran back to Hong Kong to live with his father. He thought everything would be better, but he was disappointed again.
On weekends, he will ask his father: What shall we do this week?
My father will only reply: I don't have time. Here's your money.
In this way, young Edison Chen, like many rich second generation, wandered around with a lot of money all day long. Many times, we felt that money had everything. In fact, the companionship of parents and the warmth of family ties could not be given by money.
Later, Edison Chen went to Hong Kong International School to study, where he met Nicholas Tse. Although these rich children are all teenagers, they lead a colorful life every day.
Other children are immersed in their studies in their teens, but Edison Chen's teens are in dance academy.
and all this is because of that terrible family of origin. 2
In 1999, Edison Chen returned to Hong Kong for a holiday and participated in an English credit card advertisement at the invitation of his father's friend Liming. Because of this advertisement, Edison Chen joined the Emperor and became its signing artist, who is the same as Nicholas Tse.
In p>2, Edison Chen made his debut in the film gen-x cops 2 and released EP Edison Chen in Emperor Entertainment, which was the official announcement.
At that time, Edison Chen was young, handsome, and had a bit of a bad smile, but he was particularly likable. There was no doubt that his debut was a big hit, and his evil smile charmed thousands of girls.
Edison Chen at that time was the darling of the entertainment circle.
The new album is released, and Jackie Chan stands for him; My brother Leslie Cheung helped him write "Love Yourself Extremely". Even in business, Master Xing accompanied him to find a shop.
there are few people in the entertainment circle who can enjoy this kind of treatment.
It can be said that everything in Edison Chen is too smooth except that there is no complete family of origin. There is no shortage of money and contacts, and the fame and fortune that others are striving for is at his fingertips.
but for young people, being too smooth is not necessarily a good thing.
The smooth life has made Edison Chen more indulgent and less restrained. He is playful, rebellious and exuberant in his youth. 3
Edison Chen can become popular not only because of his excellent background, but also because he is really an actor's material.
He starred in Infernal Affairs with Andy Lau, which is still a classic of Hong Kong gangster movies. "Initial D" starring Jay Chou; Later, he played the murderous Cambodian killer in Dog Bites Dog.
Edison Chen can handle any role easily. Leslie Cheung once said to him, "Appreciate Edison Chen, he is the most potential in the next generation."
The Emperor's boss also said, "You, Nicholas Tse, Shawn Yue and Daniel Wu are the successors of the four heavenly kings in the future, so don't mess around."
But after all, it was too smooth, too young and too easy to succeed. Edison Chen turned a deaf ear to the teachings of his predecessors. As a celebrity, he paid no attention to his influence and had a bad temper.
He fought with his uncle at the airport, tore at each other with paparazzi, and so on. Celebrities need to pay attention, but he didn't do the same.
Of course, if there were no "photo gate" incident, people would only say that he had a personality and dared to say and do it. Until the "photo gate" that caused a sensation in Asia and even the whole world happened, his life completely collapsed. 4
On January 26th, 28, there was no doubt that Edison Chen had an appointment to go to Canada to accompany her mother, but all this came to an abrupt end with the spread of a photo.
The story is familiar to everyone. Edison Chen's computer broke down and was sent to be repaired. The deleted photos were restored by technicians, first passed to colleagues, and then spread all over the network. The photos involved seven actresses, including Cecilia Cheung, Gillian Chung, Yang Yongqing and Chen Wenyuan.
At first, everyone thought it was a synthesis and a spoof, but when hundreds of photos suddenly spread all over the network, everyone knew that it was true, and the next thing was beyond Edison Chen's imagination. He and the actress involved almost ruined their future.
On February 21st, 28, Edison Chen, the male host, held a press conference: he apologized to the victims and announced that he would quit the entertainment circle in Hong Kong indefinitely.
Before that, Edison Chen was the idol of countless people. After that, his life fell into an abyss, and the voice of accusation and abuse never stopped.
That year, he was only 28 years old, which was the best age for an actor, but he paid a high price for "not a wrong mistake".
Later, Edison Chen went abroad. He didn't go out for 18 months, during which he was threatened with death twice. Edison Chen, who had to get wind and rain since childhood, suddenly became a public enemy.
over there, his father declared bankruptcy because of the failure of property speculation. At this point, the Chen family's glory came to an end.
how dazzling the scenery is, how chilling it is when it fails. Along with money and fame, there are former buddies and friends.
life! You will never see the heart clearly without experiencing a failure. 5
Everyone thought that Edison Chen was finished, and he would never have another chance to turn over.
But people misjudged him after all. Even after leaving the entertainment circle, he can still survive on his own.
after his acting career stopped, he began to give full play to his specialty and concentrate on doing the fashion brand business. In 29, he opened a store in Shanghai, and in 21, he opened it in Taiwan Province. All the big names are willing to cooperate with Edison Chen, because he is influential and forward-looking.
After several years of operation, his business can make a profit of more than 1 million dollars every year. This is Edison Chen. He can still get out of his own world without the screen.
after his comeback, he also met his own love.
In p>26, Edison Chen fell in love with supermodel Qin Shupei, and in January 217, he was promoted to father, leading a comfortable and happy life.
Edison Chen, who became a father, became a baby-basking maniac and a good father admired by everyone. Some people say that the unruly big boy grew up.
Once, Edison Chen paid a heavy price for his youth, but many people said that it was not him who was at fault, but the person who stole the photos.
Now, 12 years after the "Photo Gate" incident, some people occasionally shout and suddenly want to see Edison Chen's movies, but everything seems impossible.
If there were no "photo gate", would Edison Chen's life be rewritten, and would fans enjoy more good plays?
what a pity! There is no if in life, only the result.
However, in many post-8s and post-9s minds, Edison Chen was once an idol, and his name will still be mentioned when he recalls his idolize years.
