What was Stephen Chow's childhood like?

1On June 22nd, 962, Stephen Chow was born in an ordinary family in Hong Kong, five days older than another Hong Kong actor, Tony Leung Chiu Wai. His name was given by his mother, from Preface to Wang Tengting: "Xiongzhou is foggy, Cai Jun is crazy, and at the turn of Taiwan and summer, the host and guest are all in the southeast." My father is from Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, and my mother, Ling Baoer, is from Baoan County, Guangdong Province. Ling Baoer's father is a prosecutor in Baoan County of Kuomintang. 1950 was designated as a counter-revolutionary, and he came to Hongkong after graduating from Ling Baoer Normal University. Stephen Chow's parents divorced when he was seven. Stephen Chow has one sister and one sister, Zhou. When Stephen Chow was a child, his family was not well off, and his parents often quarreled over some daily necessities. However, Stephen Chow did not find his childhood miserable, but found it interesting. When he talked about the creation of Kung Fu, he mentioned that he lived in an environment similar to 72 tenants, and everyone was familiar with it. But there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in it, just like the exaggeration in Kung Fu. After divorcing Stephen Chow's father, Ling Baoer raised three children alone. In order to support his family, Ling Baoer once worked three jobs at the same time. It is said that she had remarried and had a daughter. I don't know if it's true or not, but her experience must have influenced the child's view of marriage. Although her family is poor, Lingbaoer insists on buying decent clothes for her children, taking them to the streets and avoiding places where good and evil people are mixed, hoping that children will set a good example and become decent people one day. Because there are no other men at home, Stephen Chow has been quiet since he was a child. Ling Baoer mentioned that if she asked her son if he would like to go with her before going out on the street, he would probably shake his head and watch the street view for two hours. It is said that this street scene is the inspiration of Stephen Chow's comedy creation. But the taciturn Stephen Chow has a hobby, which is watching movies, especially Bruce Lee's movies. It was because of his obsession with Bruce Lee that he embarked on the road of film. Master Xing said, "I have seen Bruce Lee's movies. I was very young at that time, and I began to like watching movies. After I fell in love with watching movies, one day I wondered whether I wanted to be an actor. I think how happy I would be if I could act every day! " Stephen Chow himself practiced Wing Chun and Tai Ji Chuan, but he didn't know how far he could go. Stephen Chow didn't do well in school, and he was partial. He did poorly in all subjects except Chinese. Ling Baoer said that the teacher praised Stephen Chow for his good painting. She thought it was also a skill, so she was not very worried about his homework. Those beautiful and shocking pictures in the movie directed by Master Xing should be related to his talent.
