Disheng Chen (陈迪生)

Chen Disheng's fame originates not from the big screen, but from the airwaves. Known as the "Ghost Horse Tiger" of Guangdong's broadcasting scene for his humorous and witty style, he rose to prominence as half of the legendary radio duo "Shuttle Twin Treasures" alongside Zhou Qingwen. His ability to mimic dozens of different voices—from infants to the elderly—earned him the title "Voice Changing King". This local icon eventually brought his talents to television, starring in long-running dramas and even a leading film role, proving his versatility as an actor. Breakthrough Role Chen's most notable role is as Mai Jinquan in the hit Cantonese drama Gaodi Street Memoirs (2015), which ran for over 300 episodes across three seasons. He portrays a seemingly detached and cynical husband who actually has a unique and humorous understanding of the world, a perfect fit for his comedic acting style. He also took on the lead role of An Dashan, a retired soldier who becomes a teacher, in the critically acclaimed public welfare film Crossing for Love, winning a China Golden Rooster Film Festival award for his efforts. Public Perception Chen Disheng is not a mainstream national star, but rather a beloved cultural symbol in the Guangdong region, respected for his longstanding career and his dedication to local culture. Public perception hinges on his sincerity and positivity; his 2026 exhibition of over 200 Cantonese idiom comics was praised for tackling the decline of the dialect, filling him with immense public goodwill. For years, he has also served as a member of the Guangzhou Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), giving him the platform to engage in public service from a privileged position.
