The “Pang Brothers” who once created the peak of Hong Kong ghost movies with the “Hell” series, it is shockingly reported that the twin brother Peng Fa saved his wife who was in the terminal stage of lung cancer and owed more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately NT$8.1 million) in debt, and even though his eldest brother Peng Shun and his sister-in-law Li Xinjie came to help, but he thought this was not a long-term solution and filed for bankruptcy after some struggle.
According to a report from Dongwang, the 58-year-old Peng Fa met the media by chance outside the court a few days ago. He then confessed lonely that he went to the court to file for bankruptcy and explained the reason why he has almost disappeared from the film industry in recent years. In February this year, Peng Fa learned that his wife, who had suffered from breast cancer, was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. He had to return to Hong Kong to take care of his wife even if he had to compensate the producer. After that, he spent 100,000 (approximately NT$400,000) every month on medical treatment and standard care. Target drug expenses, and eventually all the savings were spent.
Peng Fa said that he had tried to take on more cases to make money, but now the economy is so bad that there are almost no job opportunities. The filming of a movie that was supposed to be a life-saving straw was originally scheduled to start in June, but the shooting was repeatedly postponed, resulting in him having to borrow money from a bank loan. However, There was no fixed income from the director’s job, and banks were unwilling to lend, so he had to borrow money from private credit. As a result, he was overwhelmed by the half-monthly loan.
Peng Fa admitted that the life of these 10 months was like an “infinite loop” which gave him the idea of short-term pursuit. His wife’s treatment could not be stopped, she could not find a job, her personality problems made her not popular in the industry, and she almost lost her due to the huge debt. He wanted to defeat him, but his brother Peng Shun and sister-in-law Li Xinjie helped to temporarily solve the problem. However, he believed that “it is difficult to live in poverty, and my brother also has a family to take care of.” After thinking about it, he decided to file for bankruptcy and emphasized that if he had a job, he would be able to pay it back. Money, I hope the creditor will give him more time.
