1961–2017

繁體中文

葉繼歡(1961–2017),廣東海豐人,只讀到小學三年級,十七歲偷渡來港,初期曾在劉鑾雄旗下的風扇廠工作約一年,因缺乏學歷只能從事基層工作,其後走上持械行劫之路。他綽號「大賊」、「賊王」,是二十世紀末香港最令人聞風喪膽的悍匪之一。1984年10月,他在短短二十日內糾黨械劫多間珠寶金行,包括尖沙咀景福金行及中環置地迪生錶行;警方派員喬裝買家接贓,終在交易時將他擒獲,其後被判監十六年。1989年8月4日,他藉稱腹痛,在被押往醫院檢查時趁機逃脫,成功逃獄,此後藏匿約兩年。1991年他重出江湖,持AK-47自動步槍連續搶劫多間金行,是首個在香港以AK-47行劫的悍匪,其中在觀塘物華街連劫五間金鋪時,只用約十分鐘便得手,涉款以千萬元計。1993年1月,他與兩名同黨闖入旺角彌敦道謝瑞麟珠寶金行,劫走約三百萬元金飾,並在彌敦道與警方駁火,市民用攝錄機拍下他與同黨在街頭手持AK-47的場面,震動全城;警方一度將他列為頭號通緝犯,懸紅一百萬港元追緝。1996年5月,他與張子強合謀綁架李嘉誠長子李澤鉅,行動期間在西環中槍,下半身癱瘓被捕,其後判囚四十一年,上訴後減至三十六年三個月。他與張子強、季炳雄並稱「香港三大賊王」,其連串大案成為香港回歸前後治安問題的縮影。2017年4月19日,他在瑪麗醫院羈留病房因肺癌病逝,終年五十五歲。他的事跡多次被改編成電影,其中以三大賊王為藍本的《樹大招風》(2016)即取材自他們的故事;其被捕經過與街頭槍戰,多年來仍在坊間流傳,使他成為本地犯罪文化的一個符號。

Yip Kai-foon (1961–2017) was born in Haifeng, Guangdong, had only a primary-three education and swam to Hong Kong at seventeen, becoming one of the best-known armed-robbery gang leaders in 1990s Hong Kong. Born into poverty, he could only take manual jobs in Hong Kong before turning to armed robbery. From 1984 he robbed a string of gold and watch shops at gunpoint; after being caught and jailed for sixteen years, he escaped in 1989 while being taken to hospital after complaining of abdominal pain. Resurfacing in 1991, he staged a two-year spree of jewellery-shop robberies worth tens of millions of dollars, most famously holding up five gold shops on Mut Wah Street in Kwun Tong in about ten minutes and brandishing an AK-47 in the street during a standoff with police, footage that stunned the city; police listed him as a most-wanted fugitive with a HK$1 million reward. In May 1996, while plotting with Cheung Tsz-keung to kidnap Li Ka-shing's eldest son Victor Li, he was shot in Sai Wan and captured, paralysed from the waist down. Sentenced to 41 years, reduced on appeal to 36 years and three months, he was nicknamed, with Cheung Tsz-keung and Kwai Ping-hung, one of Hong Kong's Three Great Bandits. He died of lung cancer while in custody at Queen Mary Hospital on 19 April 2017, aged 55. His story has been adapted into films, including Trivisa (2016), which drew on the Three Great Bandits, and it remains part of the city's folklore.

Yip's string of armed robberies thrust law and order to the centre of public concern in 1990s Hong Kong, and the image of him raising an AK-47 in the street was seared into popular memory; repeatedly adapted for film, notably in Trivisa, he became a symbol within the city's culture of crime.
