Tang Congsheng has been in the industry for nearly 30 years. This time, he won the Golden Bell for the first time as an actor with "My Grandfather" and successfully won the "Supporting Actor in Mini-Series (TV Movie) Award". When he received the award, he happily said, "I have been waiting for this award for 30 years!" Choking up tears, he thanked his mother: "Thank you, mother, for not forgetting me in the 16 years since she suffered from dementia."
Tang Congsheng previously revealed that he was in the studio when he learned that he was shortlisted. After confirming the news, he immediately opened the window and shouted the good news towards his father's cemetery in the distance. When he was admitted to the Department of Drama at Taipei University of the Arts, his parents were worried that they would not be able to support their family through acting, so they kept persuading him to change departments during his freshman year. Now that many years of hard work have finally come to fruition, he admitted that he has always hoped to get a special award dedicated to his father. "This period of time is all about my work. I have never won a special award dedicated to my father." This award not only proves his acting ability, but also gives the most beautiful explanation for his years of study and cultivation.

What's even more valuable is that while letting go of his body to create laughter, he can instantly gather his emotions and reveal his helplessness and true feelings as a son or father at the turning point, successfully avoiding the role of being an exaggerated label.
