Julian Cheung happy birthday The Journey of Legend

Hong Kongese actor Julian Cheung (aka Zhang Zhi Lin) turns 54 today, and Tencent Video celebrated the occasion this morning with a beautiful visual of the actor in his guest role as Yang Kuang Tu in the upcoming C-drama The Journey of Legend.

It will be his first appearance in a Chinese drama (ie: non-Hong Kongese) since 2017’s Operation Love.

Tencent also commented:

#HappyBirthdayJulianCheung0827

Unruly and soaring high, vast as the long river.
With a smile, you tread the world, keeping your promise;
With sword in hand, you rise to the clouds, guarding your true heart.

Wishing the maverick Yan Kuang Tu (Julian Cheung — @張智霖) a joyful birthday —
Let us journey together to the ends of the earth!

#TheJourneyOfLegend#

Julian Cheung, of course, who had his first starring role back in 1992 in the drama The Peak of Passion is known for his main roles in dramas like Modern Dynasty, Shadow of Justice, Triumph in the Skies, and The Impossible 3.

He has also starred in recent Hong Kong films like The Prosecutor, Death Notice and G Point.

Happy Birthday to Julian Cheung. Hope you have a lovely one.

Update: The Journey of Legend has now grabbed a total of 10 million reservations on two platforms
