Character evaluation

Wan Ziliang's extreme devotion to acting, just like Zhang Xueyou when singing, often makes the audience infatuated. In addition, Wan Ziliang has a very high position in the performing arts industry. He also promoted Stephen Chow into the film industry. He has the inborn elder brother demeanor. He is no inferior to chow yun fat and Ren Dahua in playing the elder brother. In the mid and late 1990s, Wan Ziliang gradually faded out of Hong Kong's film and television industry. His career was low, his figure was fat and out of shape, and he would walk in the mainland from time to time. He had no courage of that year.
