}}Kent Tong Chun-yip, also known as Ken Tong, Kenneth Tong ({{zh|t=湯鎮業|s=汤镇业|p=Tāng zhèn yè}}), was born on 29 September 1958 in Hong Kong. He was a popular Television Broadcast TVB actor during the 1980s in Hong Kong, named as "Prince" among Five Tiger Generals of TVB.[1][2]

Early life

Kent Tong was born and grew up in a poor family in Hong Kong. His father was a fisherman who always caught seafood to keep his family. All 12 members of his family lived in a small-sized room with only 30 square meters. After graduating from high school, he worked on a salary of around 500 Hong Kong dollars per month.[2]

Career

In 1979, Kent Tong received actor training from the TVB Artist Training Class, and proceeded to act for TVB. Although he has appeared in over a dozen movies, he is mostly known for his work in TVB television series, such as Duen Yu in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils (1982) and Yin Ching in The Unyielding Master Lim(1986). Tong often undertook roles as princes and villains in TVB dramas.[1]

During the 1980s, Kent Tong, along with Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Andy Lau, Michael Miu and Felix Wong became known as the Five Tiger Generals of TVB. They were widely considered the most popular leading men actors of TVB at the time. Everyone called him a nickname "Prince" - the most handsome guy in the group.[2]

In 1985, Tong was blamed by the public for the suicide of his girlfriend, actress Barbara Yung, suffering a nervous breakdown as a result. At the end of 1985, he left TVB to avoid more negativity.[2][3]

From between the 1990s and now, Tong has been switched to have food business and shoot films in China. Tong is appointed as a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference representing Guangdong Province since December 2007.[4]

In 2015, Tong made a comeback to TVB after 30 years with big success of the blockbuster Lord of Shanghai. Besides, he was nominated as Best actor in the year.[3][1]
