Biography |
|
Bowie was a policeman before he entered showbiz. After a colleague told him that he should pursue his dreams while he's still young, he left the force and joined Tina Lau & Deannie Yip's "Black and White Record Company". He released his first record in 1989 and released another two more in 1991 & 1992. His singing career didn't really take off and he soon concentrated on his film and tv career. He made his first tv series in 1991 and has been in over 20 series. He began his tv career by playing mostly bad guys.
The biggest turning point in Bowie's career should be Healing Hands I (an incredibly important series since most of the major stars of HHI - Ada Choi, Lawrence Ng, Flora Chan, Nick Cheung, Steven Ma, William So & Bowie all saw their popularity surge with the success of the series.)
Bowie's portrayal of the flirtatious, scarcastic, commitment phobic Henry (this time, Bowie's a good guy) was very well received. He started getting first lead roles and as characters with personalities that are similar to Henry. The success of Healing Hands I lead to the making of Healing Hands II which helped revive Bowie's singing career because he sang several sub-theme songs for the series.
