Kent Cheng
Kent Cheng Jak-si (Chinese: 鄭則士; born 22 May 1951) is a Hong Kong film and television actor, director, and producer, celebrated for his versatile performances across action, drama, and comedy genres in Cantonese cinema. A native of Chaozhou born in Shantou, Guangdong Province, China, he migrated to Hong Kong in childhood and rose to prominence through roles that often highlighted working-class characters and social issues, earning him two Best Actor awards at the Hong Kong Film Awards for Why Me? (1985) and The Log (1996).[1] Cheng began his career in 1973 by joining the actor training program at Chang's Film Company, later transitioning to television with Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB) in 1976 after winning an acting competition, where he appeared in series such as Hotel (1976) and The Cheap Detective (1979). His entry into feature films came in 1980 with a role in The Beasts, quickly followed by leading parts in popular titles including The Sweet and Sour Cops (1981–1982), He Lives by Night (1982), Beloved Daddy (1984), and Lifeline Express (1984). These early works established him as a reliable character actor capable of blending humor and pathos.[1] A breakthrough arrived in 1985 when Cheng wrote, directed, and starred in Why Me?, introducing his iconic "Fat Cat" character and securing his first Best Actor honor at the 5th Hong Kong Film Awards. He expanded into directing with films like United We Stand (1986), Heartbeat 100 (1987), The Fortune Code (1990), and Dragon in Jail (1990), while continuing to act in notable productions such as To Be Number One (1991) and Hero of Hong Kong 1949 (1993), the latter under his own production company, Grand River Film Ltd., founded in 1992. In 1996, his raw portrayal of a lumberjack in The Log garnered a second Best Actor award at the 16th Hong Kong Film Awards, along with the 2nd Golden Bauhinia Awards.[1] Throughout the 2000s through the 2020s, Cheng balanced television commitments—returning to TVB in 1993, switching to Asia Television (ATV) in 1997 for the Forrest Cat series, and rejoining TVB after 2006 for dramas like A Journey Called Life (2008) and King Maker (2012), as well as Broken Trust (2024)—with film roles that showcased his enduring appeal. He appeared in high-profile action films including Flash Point (2007), Ip Man 2 (2010) as Fatso, and Ip Man 3 (2015), as well as later works like Guilt by Design (2019) and The Prosecutor (2024). His career spans over 150 films and numerous television episodes, cementing his status as a veteran figure in Hong Kong entertainment.[1][2][3]Early Life and Background
Birth and Family
Kent Cheng was born on May 22, 1951, in Shantou, Guangdong Province, China, to a family of Chaozhou descent.[1] As a child, he relocated with his parents to Hong Kong amid the post-World War II wave of migration from mainland China, settling into the city's burgeoning working-class neighborhoods.[1] The family, immigrants seeking better opportunities, faced immediate challenges in the rapidly industrializing British colony, where economic recovery was uneven and resources scarce for newcomers.[4] Cheng grew up in a large, impoverished household as the eldest son among six siblings, including one younger sister and four younger brothers.[4] His parents, lacking stable employment, supported the family through sporadic odd jobs in a precarious labor market typical of 1950s Hong Kong.[5] This dynamic fostered a close-knit but strained environment, where Cheng often assisted in caring for his younger siblings amid constant financial uncertainty. The family's humble beginnings were marked by residing in cramped rooftop wooden shacks in the Wanchai district to minimize rent, a common survival strategy for low-income immigrants in the overcrowded urban landscape.[5] Childhood in post-war Hong Kong exposed Cheng to profound hardships that instilled early resilience, including sleeping in makeshift wooden boxes during typhoon seasons to shield from leaks in their fragile rooftop home.[5] These experiences in Shantou's rural simplicity transitioning to Hong Kong's gritty resettlement areas highlighted the immigrant struggle against poverty and instability.[4] The era's socio-economic pressures, with widespread unemployment and limited social safety nets, shaped a family ethos of perseverance, as Cheng later reflected on the necessity of contributing to household survival from a young age.[6]Education and Early Influences
Growing up in a large family of eight in a cramped 100-square-foot home, Cheng faced significant financial hardships that shaped his early years.[7] Despite demonstrating strong academic potential—ranking 2,000 out of 33,000 candidates in his entrance exams and gaining admission to the prestigious Ying Wa College—he could only attend for one year before dropping out at age 16 to work as a jewelry apprentice on a low wage, so his younger brother could continue his studies.[7] This limited formal education up to secondary level reflected the broader constraints of poverty in 1960s Hong Kong, where many families prioritized survival over prolonged schooling.[8] From a young age, Cheng developed a passion for performance through exposure to Hong Kong's vibrant entertainment scene, particularly by accompanying his parents to cinemas and theaters where he watched Cantonese operas and films.[8] He was particularly captivated by the performances of child star Fung Bo Bo (馮寶寶), whose versatile roles—from beggar girls to princesses—in the burgeoning Cantonese cinema of the 1950s and 1960s left a profound impression and ignited his aspiration to become an actor.[9] This fascination with the local film industry, which was rapidly expanding amid Hong Kong's post-war economic boom and cultural fusion of traditional opera with modern cinema, fueled his early ambitions despite the era's limited opportunities for working-class youth.[8] In primary four, Cheng boldly expressed his dreams in a school composition titled "My Aspiration," declaring his desire to become a star, only for his teacher to tear up the paper and reprimand him for "vain glory" (貪慕虛榮), a common societal critique of entertainment pursuits in conservative 1960s Hong Kong.[9] Undeterred by this rejection or the demands of manual labor that occupied his teenage years, Cheng's interest in acting persisted as a quiet counterpoint to his family's economic struggles, reflecting the aspirational pull of Hong Kong's entertainment world on underprivileged youth during a time of cultural and industrial growth.[8] He later reflected on these hardships without bitterness, noting, "I'm not pitiful; that was just how life was back then."[7]Professional Career
Entry into Acting
Kent Cheng's initial foray into the entertainment industry occurred in 1973 when he enrolled in the inaugural actor training program at Chang's Film Company, marking his amateur beginnings in Hong Kong's film scene.[1] Although he did not secure a formal position following the training, this experience provided foundational exposure to acting techniques and the local production environment. In 1976, Cheng transitioned to professional television by joining Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB) after winning their acting competition, a pivotal event that launched his career.[1] His debut came that same year in the TVB series Hotel, where he took on an early supporting role, introducing him to a wider audience through broadcast drama. Throughout the 1970s, Cheng built his reputation through consistent appearances in TVB productions, often in supporting capacities that highlighted his emerging comedic timing.[1] Notable examples include his role in The Cheap Detective (1979), which showcased his versatility in ensemble casts. Due to his distinctive round physique, he faced early typecasting in humorous or secondary comedic parts, shaping his foundational years in the industry.[10]Film Breakthrough and Peak
Kent Cheng transitioned from television to film in 1980 with a role in The Beasts, marking his entry into feature films, quickly followed by a supporting role in The Emperor and His Brother (1981), a Shaw Brothers comedy that showcased his comedic timing and physical presence. This appearance paved the way for lead roles in action-comedies, such as The Sweet and Sour Cops (1981) and its sequel (1982), where he played bumbling yet endearing characters that capitalized on his everyman appeal. By mid-decade, Cheng had evolved into a prominent figure in Hong Kong's burgeoning film industry, blending humor with heartfelt drama in self-directed projects like Why Me? (1985), in which he portrayed the mentally disabled "Fat Cat," earning him the Best Actor award at the 5th Hong Kong Film Awards.[1][11] Cheng's peak came during the 1980s and 1990s, a golden era for Hong Kong cinema, where he solidified the "loving fat guy" archetype through roles in over 100 films, often as sympathetic triads or underdogs. Iconic works include Why Me? (1985), which spawned spin-offs featuring his signature character, and The Log (1996), a police drama set on the eve of Hong Kong's handover, in which he played the principled Officer Gump, winning him another Best Actor at the 16th Hong Kong Film Awards and the 2nd Golden Bauhinia Awards. His frequent collaborations with director Wong Jing, including productions under his Grand River Film Ltd. founded in 1992, contributed to the fast-paced, genre-blending style that defined the period, with films like Hero of Hong Kong 1949 (1993) highlighting his versatility as actor, director, and producer.[1][12] As Hong Kong's film industry faced decline in the late 1990s due to piracy, economic shifts, and the 1997 handover, Cheng diversified into mainland China productions post-2000, appearing in high-profile martial arts films like Ip Man 2 (2010) and Ip Man 3 (2015), where he took on authoritative supporting roles that leveraged his seasoned presence. His enduring impact lies in humanizing marginalized figures in triad and comedy genres, influencing the archetype of the relatable anti-hero in Hong Kong cinema. More recently, Cheng starred in The Prosecutor (2024), a legal thriller directed by Donnie Yen, reaffirming his relevance in contemporary cross-border collaborations.[13][14]Awards and Recognition
Hong Kong Film Awards
Kent Cheng has received significant recognition from the Hong Kong Film Awards (HKFA), including two Best Actor wins that underscored his versatility in portraying multifaceted characters in Hong Kong cinema. His first win came at the 5th HKFA in 1986 for his leading role as the mentally disabled "Fat Cat" in Why Me? (1985), a film he also wrote and directed. This performance, blending comedy and pathos to depict the struggles of a bullied individual and his mother, not only earned him the Best Actor award but also heightened public awareness of mental disabilities in Hong Kong society.[11][1] Cheng's second Best Actor accolade arrived at the 16th HKFA in 1997 for his role as the sympathetic yet resilient Inspector Gump in The Log (1996), a crime drama exploring institutional failures within the police force. In this portrayal of a dedicated veteran officer navigating moral dilemmas and personal sacrifices, Cheng demonstrated his ability to embody complex, layered figures beyond his earlier comedic personas, further solidifying his reputation as a leading dramatic talent.[1][15] Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Cheng garnered additional nominations at the HKFA, particularly for supporting roles that highlighted his range in ensemble-driven films. Notable among these was a Best Actor nomination at the 4th HKFA in 1985 for Beloved Daddy (1984), an early recognition of his dramatic potential. He was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 11th HKFA in 1992 for his work in To Be Number One (1991), and again at the 13th HKFA in 1994 for Crime Story (1993), where he played a key figure in a high-stakes police operation. These honors, alongside his wins, played a pivotal role in elevating Cheng's status from a character actor to a bankable star in Hong Kong's golden era of filmmaking, contributing to his enduring influence in the industry.[16]| Ceremony | Year | Category | Film | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4th HKFA | 1985 | Best Actor | Beloved Daddy (1984) | Nomination |
| 5th HKFA | 1986 | Best Actor | Why Me? (1985) | Win |

| 13th HKFA | 1994 | Best Supporting Actor | Crime Story (1993) | Nomination |
| 16th HKFA | 1997 | Best Actor | The Log (1996) | Win |
Other Honors
In 1997, Kent Cheng received the Best Actor award at the 2nd Golden Bauhinia Awards for his role in The Log (1996), recognizing his portrayal of a complex, emotionally driven character in the crime drama.[1] Cheng also earned international recognition through nominations at the Golden Horse Film Festival, Taiwan's prestigious awards ceremony. He was nominated for Best Leading Actor in 1986 for Why Me? (1985), highlighting his breakthrough performance as a resilient underdog, and again in 1993 for Crime Story, where he played a supporting yet pivotal role alongside Jackie Chan.[16]Personal Life
Family and Relationships
Kent Cheng has been married to Lam Yin-ming since 1991, having met her on a film set where she worked as an extra and pursued a brief acting career before retiring to support his professional endeavors and raise their family. Lam, who is 14 years younger than Cheng, has remained out of the public eye, focusing on their household amid his fluctuating career demands. The couple's enduring partnership has been highlighted in media reports as a testament to mutual commitment, with Lam providing steadfast support during personal trials.[17] Cheng and Lam have two children: a daughter born in 1992 and a son born in 1998. Both children have chosen to maintain privacy, avoiding involvement in the entertainment industry and limiting public appearances. In April 2024, their daughter wed in a discreet ceremony attended only by close family, reflecting the family's preference for low-key personal milestones. Cheng has expressed pride in his role as a father, emphasizing the importance of guiding his children toward independent lives away from the spotlight.[17][18] In contrast to the poverty of his early years, Cheng has cultivated family stability, often portraying himself publicly as a devoted husband and father who balances professional obligations with home life. While no specific philanthropic initiatives tied to underprivileged youth are publicly documented, his personal narrative underscores a commitment to familial resilience and support.[17]Financial Challenges
In the 1990s, Kent Cheng encountered significant financial setbacks due to the downturn in Hong Kong's film industry, which prompted him to launch his own production company alongside friends. However, the venture failed amid poor investments, leaving him with a debt of approximately HK$17 million (about US$2.2 million) by 1993.[19][20] This crisis forced Cheng to sell his car and home to settle portions of the debt, severely impacting his personal stability following a period of professional success in film.[21][22] In response, he shifted his focus back to television acting with TVB to rebuild his finances, with crucial support from fellow actor Andy Lau, who provided financial assistance and opportunities in films, marking a pivotal career transition during the late 1990s.[23] In December 2024, Cheng publicly disclosed the details of his 1993 debt during an appearance on a variety show, recounting how the ordeal had nearly ruined him financially and emphasizing the role of perseverance in his recovery.[21][23] The revelation highlighted the long-term effects of business ventures gone awry, including the loss of assets tied to unwise investments in the film sector.[20] Although the debt was resolved over time through sustained work in acting, the disclosure served as a cautionary tale about the volatility of the entertainment industry. By 2025, persistent rumors about his health escalated into a death hoax, with false reports claiming he had passed away on March 27 due to issues such as diabetes.[24] To counter these speculations, Cheng joined the social media platform Douyin in October 2025, posting videos to affirm his well-being and dismiss the rumors as baseless.[24][25] His ongoing acting projects and public appearances, including casual outings with his dog, demonstrated continued recovery efforts and financial stability through professional engagement.[26][27]Filmography
