The story of Tang Bohu lighting Chou-heung is widely circulated. Does this story really exist?

When I was very young, I saw the movie "Tong Pak Hu Dian Qiu Xiang". Stephen Chow's Tang Bohu left a deep impression on people, and the story inside was ridiculous. Is the story of Tang Bohu and Chou-heung true?

Although the story is not clear, there is no doubt that Tang Bohu is one of the four great talents in Jiangnan. This story tells that Tang Bohu met Chou-heung, a maid in Washington, and was completely attracted by Chou-heung's smile. In order to get Chou-heung's attention, Tang Bohu became a slave and entered Washington. Tang Bohu is famous abroad, but he is a slave in Washington, but through his own talent, he won the appreciation of China bachelors and married a beautiful mother.

The film left a charming and brilliant impression on Tang Bohu. Since then, the story of Tang Bohu and Chou-heung has been widely circulated among the people, and the image of Tang Bohu has been deeply rooted in people's hearts under the influence of Stephen Chow. However, it was pointed out that there is no historical data to prove the story of Tang Bohu and Chou-heung.

Tang Bohu is a famous painter, and his paintings are lifelike. In the movie, it is also emphasized that Tang Bohu's paintings were precious at that time, but Tang Bohu's life was not as chic and cheerful as in the movie.

Tang Bohu is called a gifted scholar. I thought life could be full of fun, but misfortune followed. First my father died of illness, and then my mother died with him. Soon, his wife and children could not escape the trick of fate and left Tang Bohu one after another. Encouraged by his friends, he took part in the provincial examination, and the result was among the best, which also made Tang Bohu famous. Unfortunately, he was influenced by the fraud in the imperial examination, and since then, the future of the five subjects in the imperial examination is uncertain. He has bad luck. It can be seen that Tang Bohu in the film is happy and cheerful, which is inconsistent with the historical role, so He Qiuxiang's story should be fictional.
