Chung Tran Dao was caught singing on the sidewalk, from a movie star to a 700 billion debtor

Chung Tran Dao was once affectionately called the "Condor Hero" actor by the online community, and his career was considered quite successful. Now in his 70s, the actor has to sing on the sidewalk because of huge debt.

Recently, the online community has been spreading images of a famous male singer, caught eating at a roadside restaurant. In the image, this male singer appears in simple, comfortable clothes.

According to the person who posted the photo, this male singer is very handsome in person even though he is currently 71 years old. Although the photo was secretly taken, it is easy to see that this male singer has bright white skin, very delicate facial features, not at all like a 71-year-old man. This male singer is Chung Tran Dao - one of the most famous singers in Hong Kong.

Chung Chun-Tao was an extremely famous singer at the time. He was a member of the band The Wynners and was also a successful actor. With his popularity and top salary, Chung Chun-Tao accumulated a fortune of up to 20 million USD.

In the 90s, Hong Kong showbiz was considered to have one of the highest salaries in Asia. Even a B-list artist at that time could easily earn a salary of up to 15 thousand USD. Therefore, A-list stars easily received salaries 3 to 5 times higher.

However, his career began to falter after he married the less famous actress Zhang Xiaohui. Chung's wife is famous for her extravagant spending habits and disregard for prices, but the singer is also very willing to pay. According to some sources, the singer gave his wife 50 thousand USD (about 1.5 billion) per month to spend. Because of that, the singer's assets began to show signs of faltering due to Zhang Xiaohui's wasteful spending.

In 1996, Chung Tran Dao listened to his wife and borrowed 150 million HKD (about 450 billion VND) to invest in real estate. However, due to economic fluctuations, the male singer lost all that money. Including principal and interest, the amount of money Chung Tran Dao owed was up to 250 million HKD (about 750 billion VND). The male singer who was once one of the richest in showbiz suddenly fell into debt and bankruptcy. Notably, at the time Chung Tran Dao went bankrupt, he discovered that his wife was having an affair with another male tycoon. The two later divorced, ending their marriage in 1999.

At the lowest point in his life, Chung Tran Dao met To Trinh. At that time, her family was very rich, she had just returned from studying abroad in France. She helped him revive his career, and also sold many of his personal assets, including several diamond rings. She opened a shop selling artists' clothing, and her business prospered. Meanwhile, Chung Tran Dao persistently ran shows to make a living. By 2006, thanks to his wife's help, he had paid off all his debts. In an interview, Chung Tran Dao said he was always grateful to his wife for taking care of every aspect of their life. The two did not register their marriage, and it was not until 2014 that they held their wedding in Bali.

In recent years, Chung Tran Dao and his wife have been in mainland China. They moved to Shanghai to live with their two daughters. Recently, his eldest child was admitted to university in England. Chung Tran Dao is now 69 years old. He has acted in The Condor Heroes (2006) as Cong Ton Chi (the owner of Tuyet Tinh Coc), Yen Toa Trung Lau, Viet Quang Bao Hap, Thap Huynh De, Hiep Cot Nhan Tam... He also released many albums in the 1980s and 1990s. In recent years, due to the difficult epidemic situation, Chung Tran Dao has had few opportunities to participate in showbiz activities.

Pham Khuong To Trinh gave birth to two daughters in 2004 and 2010, but it was not until 2014 that they held their wedding. On the wedding day, Chung Tran Dao wrote on his personal page: "Nothing can make it difficult for us, together until old age". The wedding was attended by many actors such as Maggie Cheung, Jacky Cheung, Cheung Ka-hui, Eric Tsang, Tony Leung and his wife...

According to Chinanews, after getting married, To Trinh lived with Chung Tran Dao's two stepchildren, Chung Gia Tuan and Chung Gia Tinh, and was loved by the stepchildren. When To Trinh was rumored to be "abusing her stepchildren", Chung Gia Tinh wrote on Weibo: "Today something really sad happened. My father and aunt (Pham Khuong To Trinh) always loved me, but suddenly they were greatly hurt. Since childhood, my aunt always showed us care and treated others well. She truly loved and protected us."

Chung Tran Dao is grateful for Pham Khuong To Trinh's sacrifice for the family. He once said: "She did so much for this house. For the rest of my life, I will love her - the person who never asks for anything in return". He also said: "A house with a virtuous wife, the husband does not have to worry about it collapsing".
