Deng Guangrong’s Life: Student Lover in the 1960s and Gangster Brother in the 1980s.

  Deng Guangrong is from Shunde, Guangdong Province. In 1962, at the age of 17, he became famous for his first film "The Student Prince", and he was also called "the three major literary films in Taiwan Province" with Qin and Han Dynasties and Qin Xianglin. After graduating from high school, Deng Guangrong cooperated with Xiao Fangfang, Zhen Zhen, Chen Baozhu and others to shoot many films with the theme of youth in the 1960s. In 1970s, he went to Taiwan Province for development, and made more than 60 films, usually in drama and romance. He also often cooperates with Brigitte Lin, which is very popular with Taiwan Province audiences. It is reported that the film salary in Deng Guangrong is HK $150,000.

  In 1977, he returned to Hong Kong and founded Darong Film Company, and then founded Shadow Master Film Company. At this time, Deng Guangrong is no longer the "student prince" in the 1960s and 1970s. This tall and dignified middle-aged man with a king’s demeanor began to be keen on interpreting some Jianghu brothers in gangster hero films. Although Wong Kar-wai wrote "Jianghu Long Hudou" and Deng Guangrong, Chow Yun Fat and Xie Xian starred in it, it was also a follow-up work of John Woo’s "The True Color of Heroes", but the delicate depiction of brothers’ feelings and how to choose family life in the film still had some flavor compared with other similar films, which made Deng Guangrong, who is also the boss of the film company, appreciate the young man’s talent and invested in the first film as tears go by directed by Wong Kar-wai. The film was well received, which greatly boosted Deng Guangrong’s confidence. He even spent HK$ 40 million for Wong Kar-wai to start filming his second film, The True Story of Teddy Boy, but the result was a fiasco at the box office. After being released for 12 days, it was closed, and the box office only received 10 million yuan, which actually made Deng Guangrong go to the hospital for intravenous drip because of the huge investment in anxious films.

  After The Story of Teddy Boy, Deng Guangrong and Wong Kar-wai had another collaboration: return engagement, written by Wong Kar-wai and starring Deng Guangrong. The story of this film is not bad compared with Deng Guangrong’s previous work "Longteng Sihai". It is all about the story that the boss who wants to quit the Jianghu is forced by the situation and kills again. Perhaps because he is used to playing "Big Boss", Deng Guangrong’s style of acting in the circle is also quite helpful. At the memorial meeting of his good friend Shen Dianxia, Deng Guangrong tried Adam Cheng publicly, forcing Adam Cheng to take the stage to explain whether he was heartless to Shen Dianxia and his daughter Zheng Xinyi, which also caused an uproar.

    Deng Guangrong and Leslie Cheung were also good friends. In 1991, Deng Guangrong, together with Leslie Cheung and Wong Kar-wai, won the Golden Award for The True Story of Teddy Boy. After Leslie Cheung’s death, he also attended the memorial activities in Leslie Cheung.
