Popular actor Ge You (Let the Bullets Fly, If You Are the One, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 69th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Ge, a cultural icon

Born in Beijing on April 19, 1957, Ge You's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Chinese history. Ge's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little You hasn't done.
