李兆基(Keith Lee Siu-kei),1949年12月4日在廣東順德出生,2019年6月2日於伊利沙伯醫院病逝,終年六十九歲,外號「高飛」、「基哥」、「吹水基」。他少年時居於黃大仙慈雲山邨,是童黨組織「慈雲山十三太保」中最狠的打手之一,並有多年吸毒紀錄,後來在首領陳慎芝的勸導下戒毒,重投社會。1980年代,他經導演林嶺東引介參與電影工作,曾任《監獄風雲》(1987)的顧問,亦曾於無綫電視擔任幕後及參與劇集演出。由於外形草根、閱歷特殊,他多演黑幫小頭目或有勇無謀的角色,並常為黑幫題材電影出任顧問;他最為人熟悉的是《古惑仔》電影系列中左右搖擺的「吹水基」。1994年,他首次擔任電影監製,作品為《滿清禁宮奇案》;1995年首次出任出品人,出品《迷魂黨》。他亦參演周星馳的《食神》(1996)、《算死草》(1997)、《行運一條龍》及《喜劇之王》(1999)等,與黃光亮、成奎安、何家駒並稱「香港影圈四大惡人」。2017年上映的《毒。誡》即改編自慈雲山十三太保的故事。除演戲外,他亦是電影投資公司負責人,曾任監製及編劇,一生參演電影逾百部,先後與周潤發、梁家輝、劉德華、梁朝偉等演員合作。他約在2015年中風後減少露面,2018年確診肝癌。他曾多次公開講述自己由黑道走向銀幕、成功戒毒的經歷;除《毒。誡》之外,他亦曾參與以十三太保為題材的《慈雲山十三太保》(1995)一片。離世後,他仍為影迷所懷念。

Keith Lee Siu-kei was born in Shunde, Guangdong, on 4 December 1949 and died at Queen Elizabeth Hospital on 2 June 2019, aged 69; he was known as 'Ko Fei', 'Kei Gor' and 'Chui Shui Kei'. In his youth he lived in Tsz Wan Shan Estate in Wong Tai Sin and was one of the most ruthless enforcers of the youth gang 'Thirteen Tai Po', with a long history of drug use, before being persuaded by its leader Chan Shun-chi to reform and rejoin society. In the 1980s he was brought into films by director Ringo Lam, working as an adviser on Prison on Fire (1987), and he also worked behind the scenes at TVB and appeared in its drama series. His grass-roots looks and unusual background led to roles as small-time hoods and blustering toughs, and he frequently served as a consultant on triad films; he is best remembered as the fence-sitting 'Chui Shui Kei' in the Young and Dangerous series. In 1994 he produced his first film, and in 1995 he made his first appearance as an executive producer, backing a further production. He also appeared in Stephen Chow comedies including The God of Cookery (1996), Lawyer Lawyer (1997), The Lucky Guy and King of Comedy (1999). With Wong Kwong-leung, Shing Fui-on and Ho Ka-kui he was counted one of the 'Four Great Villains' of Hong Kong cinema, and the 2017 film Dealer/Healer was based on the Thirteen Tai Po story. Besides acting he ran a film investment company as producer and writer, appearing in more than a hundred films and working alongside actors such as Chow Yun-fat, Tony Leung Ka-fai, Andy Lau and Tony Leung Chiu-wai. After suffering strokes from around 2015 he was diagnosed with liver cancer in 2018, and he is still remembered fondly by filmgoers.

影響與傳承 Impact & Legacy

繁體中文

李兆基以真實的江湖背景演出黑幫配角,令《古惑仔》系列中的「吹水基」等角色帶着草根說服力;他與黃光亮、成奎安、何家駒並稱「四大惡人」,是1990年代港產黑幫片和周星馳喜劇中辨識度最高的綠葉之一,其人生經歷亦成為《毒。誡》等片的素材。

English

Drawing on his genuine gangland past, Lee gave his supporting triad roles, such as the fence-sitting 'Chui Shui Kei' in the Young and Dangerous series, a grass-roots authenticity; one of the 'Four Great Villains' of Hong Kong cinema, he was among the most recognisable character actors in 1990s triad films and Stephen Chow comedies, and his life story itself became film material.
