Jordan Chan has not yet responded to the matter. Born in 1967 in Guangdong province, he came from a poor family. His parents once gave his younger brother to another family, receiving 3,000 Chinese Yuan (11,6 million dong) in return. Since then, he has had no news of his younger brother.
At the age of 13, Jordan Chan dropped out of school and moved to Hong Kong to make a living, assisting his father at construction sites. At 16, he worked as a waiter and helped out at a barbershop. After seeing an advertisement for dancers at TVB, he auditioned and was accepted into a dance class due to his agile movements. There, he was paid 700 HKD (2,3 million dong) monthly. From the age of 18 (1985), he was introduced as a backup dancer for renowned artists such as Anita Mui, Leslie Cheung, and Alan Tam.
In 1994, Jordan Chan ventured into acting with supporting roles in two films: "Twenty Something" (directed by Derek Yee) and "He's a Woman, She's a Man" (directed by Peter Chan). He was nominated for "Best New Performer" and "Best Supporting Actor" at the Hong Kong Film Awards for these two films. His impressive debut performances propelled him further in the film industry. He gained fame for his leading roles in films such as "The Duke of Mount Deer", "Young and Dangerous", and "Fist of Legend". In recent years, Jordan Chan has been highly sought after for reality shows and music performances.
The actor married actress Cherrie Ying in 2010 in the US, and they have two sons. Cherrie Ying revealed that in everyday life, her husband does not buy expensive items. He also guides their sons towards a frugal lifestyle. "He experienced the poorest days and understands the value of food," Cherrie Ying said.
