Recently, in the program "Shining Universe", actor Huynh Hieu Minh attracted attention when sharing the story of once saving Liu Yifei's life on the film set years ago.
20 years ago, at the time of filming the movie "The Condor Heroes" at a waterfall in Jiuzhaigou (X Sichuan, China), Liu Yifei, due to losing her balance, was suddenly swept away by the fast-flowing water.
At this time, "Yang Guo" Huynh Hieu Minh reacted quickly and immediately ran over, jumped into the cold water to save "Little Dragon Girl" before she was swept away by the water.
From there, the two actors formed a close friendship. They are not only one of the screen couples who act in harmony, but also a meaningful relationship of "birth and death" in real life.
Behind-the-scenes stories about the classic work "The Condor Heroes" released in 2006 are also recalled.
Initially, Huynh Hieu Minh was not the only choice for the role of Duong Qua. The media at that time was filled with news that he and Nhiep Vien were competing for this role.
Huynh Hieu Minh once revealed that behind the scenes of casting Duong Qua had too many "hidden feelings", to the point that he himself had almost no hope left.
After many setbacks, Huynh Hieu Minh finally won the role of Duong Qua, but author Kim Dung was not satisfied with this version, frankly saying that Duong Qua's acting was too "exposed".
Later, director Vuong Tinh continued to reveal the story of that year, saying that the producers of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" initially targeted Ta Dinh Phong and Chau Tan. At that time, Chau Tan agreed to participate, but Ta Dinh Phong missed the role due to a mismatch in schedule, and this coincidence created an opportunity for Huynh Hieu Minh.
Although the filming process encountered many storms, both in the film and in real life, Huynh Hieu Minh and Luu Diec Phi built a relationship that can be called "love affair with life and death".
Huynh Hieu Minh once publicly revealed to the media that Liu Yifei is the type of girl he loves, the pure and lovely "jade girl" model in his heart.
In 2017, after Huynh Hieu Minh became the "manager" of the "Chinese Restaurant" program, he invited many old friends to participate. Shu Qi, An Tao - people who rarely appear in reality shows - all came to support Huynh Hieu Minh, but Liu Yifei was absent.
Sources said that Huang Xiaoming's two invitations to Liu Yifei were rejected, causing many people to speculate that the friendship between them has faded over time.
But in reality, although rarely appearing in the same frame, the feelings between Huynh Hieu Minh and Luu Diec Phi are still intact. In 2017, when Luu Diec Phi's movie "Nhi Dai Ye Tinh" was promoted, Huynh Hieu Minh suddenly appeared at a press conference, using real-life actions to prove his sincerity.
At a fashion event in 2019, Liu Yifei intimately put her arm around Huynh Hieu Minh's shoulder, while he praised her in front of the camera as "still as beautiful as ever".
In March, when Liu Yifei received the acting award for the movie "Rose Story", Huynh Hieu Minh sent congratulations via video, frankly saying that she had long overcome the classic shadow of "Little Dragon Girl".
In October, Liu Yifei posted a post supporting Huynh Hieu Minh's movie "Sunshine Club". In response, Huynh Hieu Minh said: "Thank you, auntie", showing that after 20 years, their friendship is still as intact as it was at the beginning.
