Born to a poor family in Taiwan, the
young Shu Qi moved to Hong Kong at the age of 17 where she became a model
for adult magazines and softcore movie shorts. She eventually came under
the management of Hong Kong producer Manfred Wong, who signed her on to
several softcore porn Hong Kong films such as Sex & Zen II.
She starred in Derek Yee's 1996 film, Viva Erotica, which was about the
erotic film industry in Hong Kong, opposite the late Leslie Cheung and
Karen Mok. At the Hong Kong Film Awards, she received the Best Supporting
Actress award for the film. Since then, she has appeared in mainstream
Hong Kong films such as Gorgeous (1998) opposite Jackie Chan, Stanley
Kwan's The Island Tales (1999) and Hou Hsiao-Hsien's critically-acclaimed
Millennium Mambo (2000).
In 1999, Ang Lee approached Shu for the role of Jen in Crouching Tiger,
Hidden Dragon. Six weeks into filming, her manager, Manfred Wong, not
foreseeing the film's massive international success, pulled her out to do
a soft drink commercial in Japan, and the part went instead to Chinese
actress Zhang Ziyi.
In 2002, she appeared in the Hollywood film The Transporter and the Asian
action flick So Close. In 2004, she had a role in the Hong Kong horror
film The Eye 2.
In 2005 she won the Best Actress Award at the 2005 Golden Horse Awards for
her three roles in Hou Hsiao-Hsien's Three Times. |
