What about the four Xu Shi brothers?

Xu Guanwen, Samuel Hui, Xu Guanwu, Xu Guanying

For Xu Guanwen, Samuel Hui and Xu Guanying, perhaps today's young audience is no longer familiar with them. After all, they have been semi-retired in recent years, and few works have been published. But all friends who have seen Xu Shi's comedies are deeply impressed by his humorous style. Anyone who is familiar with Hong Kong movies in the 1970s and 1980s is well aware of the status and achievements of the Xu Shi brothers!

Xu Shi's brother, Wu Wen Yingjie, was originally four brothers and sisters.

Xu Guanwen was the most influential comedian in Hong Kong before the appearance of Stephen Chow, Samuel Hui was the Hong Kong movie star with the largest number of annual box office champion films (eight films), and Xu Guanying was the Xiangjiang clown with full personality and numerous wonderful performances.

In the 1970s, when Hong Kong's economy took off, Hong Kong people began to establish a unique local pop culture. The Hsu brothers were the important founders of Hong Kong pop culture. Samuel Hui's Cantonese slang songs started the current trend in canto pop. Xu Shi Brothers Film Company has created a series of ghost horse comedies, such as Ghost Horse Double Star and Eight and a Half Jin, which not only created box office myths repeatedly, but also successfully revived the lingering Cantonese films, laying a solid foundation for it to crush Mandarin films and dominate the Hong Kong film industry.

Whether they set foot in the film industry at the beginning, or their own development, or even why they faded out of the film industry, they all interpreted the life trajectory of reaching the same goal by different routes. ...
