Why did Andy Lau attend the gambling king's funeral? What is the reason between him and Mr. Stanley Ho?

Since the death of the gambling king at the end of May, it has once become the hottest topic in the circle, because the gambling king's family is huge and there are four women in the family. Many things have happened during this period, which has always been a hot topic.

However, the body of the gambling king was not buried until July 8, and only the closest relatives attended the memorial service on July 8.

The wives and children in each room appeared one after another, and Shawn Dou also appeared in the mourning hall with his girlfriend He Chaolian.

It is reported that the gambling king mourning hall held a public sacrifice on the 9th, and a funeral was held at 10. The relics of the ceremony will be temporarily stored in hong kong funeral home and buried in Zhaoyuan Cemetery on an auspicious day next year. It seems that He Jia's burial of the gambling king is well thought out!

On the 9th public sacrifice, it is said that many important people will attend the funeral of the gambling king, and Jackie Chan, Andy Lau and Stephen Chow, the three heavyweights in the film and television circle, will attend the funeral of the gambling king.

Although the speech was short, it summed up the life of Stanley Ho, the gambling king. Stanley Ho has done many good deeds, and his greatest contribution should be the donation of pig's head and horse's head, cultural relics of Yuanmingyuan. For these two cultural relics, Stanley Ho bought them at a high price and then donated them selflessly.

In fact, there are other reasons between Andy Lau and Mr. Stanley Ho, the gambling king, that is, Andy Lau once played "Mr. Stanley Ho". In the 1980s and 1990s, when Hong Kong movies were popular, there were many gambling movies, and Macao bosses headed by Stanley Ho and others were all made into movies.

Among them, the film about Mr. Stanley Ho is a series of Las Vegas Tycoons directed by Jing Wong. In the film, the role of Mr. Stanley Ho is portrayed as the hero He Xin. Although his name has the word "gambling", it is different from "God of Gambling" in that it is not based on showing gambling, but mainly tells the story of He Xin and his partner Guo Yingnan.

Andy Lau plays the leading actor He Jiong, and the prototype is Stanley Ho. At that time, before the filming began, Jing Wong also had great respect for Mr. Stanley Ho, the gambling king. He took the script and asked Stanley Ho for advice, and also asked Stanley Ho to choose actors. Finally, Mr. Ho chose the more handsome Andy Lau.

Las Vegas tycoon is a film with two main characters. In addition to He Jiong played by Andy Lau, Guo Yingnan, another actor played by Wan Ziliang, is based on Fok Ying Tung.

At that time, both Andy Lau and Wan Ziliang were in their prime. After the film "Vegas tycoon" was broadcast, although it was not as big as "God of Gambling", it was still liked by many viewers. Even the gambling king Stanley Ho himself likes this movie very much, and often watches it with his family when he is free. When his family asked him if the story in the film was true, Stanley Ho, the gambling king, just smiled and didn't answer these questions.

Apart from this movie, Mr. He also likes Andy Lau in private and will take his family to Andy Lau's concert. His support for Andy Lau is still quite large.

Now that Mr. Stanley Ho, the gambling king, has passed away, it is a kind of respect and gratitude for Andy Lau to attend the funeral as a junior. After all, if Mr. Stanley Ho, the gambling king, didn't name Andy Lau, "Gambling King" might not be filmed.

But to be honest, it is precisely because of this film that more people can easily understand the first half of the legend of gambling king Stanley Ho.
