Keep this moment and decorate your future —— Talking about Dawn
Chatting with a friend, who is a fan of Dawn, told me happily that in a few days, 65438+February 1 1 will be Dawn's birthday and he will be 38 years old.
This sentence makes me wonder ... Is Dawn only thirty-eight years old? Aren't the four heavenly kings away all the year round? In my impression, Dawn has been popular for at least ten years. Every time I watch entertainment news, I see him with a self-serious attitude and unfathomable words. Unexpectedly, this man is not much older than me.
I will have gone to college by dawn. It was when the four heavenly kings swept across the mainland, and their songs were played all day in the school. I remember it was the beginning of a new term. We are busy welcoming new students, but we are caught in a once-in-a-century rainstorm. A large number of freshmen were trapped in the station and could not get to school. Some old classmates came to the rescue, and others and I waited in front of the dormitory. Waiting and waiting until late at night, the same song: "Will you come tonight? Is your love still there?" It was played on the tape recorder next to me. This memory impressed me so deeply that as soon as I mentioned this song, I immediately felt a wet rainy night breath and a sense of helplessness waiting until the end of time.
I don't like dawn's songs. I think they are too light and soft, not loud enough and not shocking enough. I have also seen many reports that he is the king of out-of-tune songs, saying that he always sings these "soft songs" because his skill is not enough. At that time, the media in Chinese mainland were well-intentioned, and few singers were evaluated so badly that when I heard that Dawn was going to hold a concert and invited Wang Jingwen as a guest, I couldn't help thinking blankly: Isn't Dawn out of tune? Will he give a concert? Is it still popular now? The most incredible thing is that when watching the movie "The Banquet of the Giants", Liming made a guest appearance in a small role with no last name, and even sang an out-of-tune song while cooking: "I'd rather have no future ..."
Now I already know the lethality and credibility of the media, especially some gossip media in Hong Kong, which indiscriminately attack artists who don't buy it and trample on it all the way. Leslie Cheung and Dawn are one of the most representative "arrows". It took a long time to realize that so many singers were out of tune, only dawn was entangled; I just heard that Liming doesn't want to sing passionate songs, but his record company arranged that role for him in order to take care of the market demand and balance the styles of his singers. Only then did I notice that "The Banquet of the Giants" turned out to be a disaster relief film, and all the cast members performed for free, without any money. Dawn just listened to the director's arrangement and laughed at herself, taking care of the movie's visibility and holding a sore spot against the wind.
What impressed me most about Dawn was not music or movies, but an unknown MTV. Occasionally I see it on TV. Dawn sang a sweet little story with a girl: "Get used to kissing your sleeping face a little earlier than you wake up every day." Let you open your eyes, you can see my gentle smile ... "I still remember the lyrics and tunes of this song, especially his gentle and considerate love for the girl, his shyness for the boss, and his confusion when facing the girl's parents. It is even more impressive. To tell the truth, I've always heard that Li Ming is handsome. I never thought he had a small face, fat eyes and swollen eyes, but he didn't have any advantages except being tall. But after watching this MTV, I think I know why so many people are fascinated by him. His gentle and elegant temperament, the innocence and affection conveyed in his eyes, combined with his voice and his songs, really won your heart easily.
Later, I watched some of his films one after another, such as The Moon Shines in the East, Divine Calculation, The Legend of Flying Fox, Sweet Honey, and Half-life Fate ... Dawn's acting has always been a controversial topic. On the one hand, many people say that he can't act at all, on the other hand, many people even praise him in the industry, and he also won the best actor award. As for me, I don't think his play is wide enough, and he has gone to two extremes: playing a killer, a gangster and a gangster is not the case at all; However, the roles of scholars, doctors and police officers are very vivid, with a certain cultural background, affectionate and full of righteousness, especially the images of virtuous teenagers with strong bookish spirit in Sweet Honey and Half-Life. There are really not many Hong Kong actors who can compare with him. Perhaps this has something to do with his birth in the mainland, his education in Britain and the rich cultural background of Hong Kong's development. His elegance, reserve, composure, aristocratic atmosphere and gentlemanly demeanor are not native to Hong Kong, and are completely different from pure European and American cultures. If he was born and raised in the mainland, he was unconditionally trained.
Then I fainted. This gentle man in my eyes turned out to be "a copper pea that can't be steamed, boiled, beaten, fried or exploded". His negative rumors and bad external comments are unique among many performing stars.
For the media, Dawn declared early in the morning that all questions about love, money and family were not answered in the interview, so this dialogue often appeared:
"I don't want to talk about this problem. Go back and tell your editor that I politely refuse to answer. "
"I don't care. Don't write me anything like' laugh it off' again! Are you tired of writing like this all the time? "
"I'm sorry, I don't want to listen! I already know what your next question is. "
"Who do you think you are interviewing? This is the dawn dawn will not answer such a question. "
……
Or you can see him take the initiative to attack Kan Kan and talk for an hour or two. The content is profound and full of philosophy. The reporter nodded for a long time and found himself dizzy. He doesn't know what he wants to write or ask. This phenomenon has a poetic code name in the media called "Dawn takes you around the garden".
In life, many people who have dealt with him say that he is too proud. When he becomes a big star, he doesn't like talking to people. His friend argued, "He doesn't like talking to people when he is red or not." Many people call him hypocritical because he doesn't laugh all day. He retorted, "If you smile all day, it's really hypocritical." He even treated his fans with nails and rivets and refused to cater to them at all. He said that whenever fans gathered in front of his house to wait for him to get off work in the early morning, his attitude was to persuade, scold and drive away. A fan was waiting for his signature at the gate of the studio, and he replied, "Sorry, I don't have time today." Fans wronged: "I have been waiting for a day!" ""Who told you to wait? " "myself ..." "what does that have to do with me? I am not responsible for this. " ……
He is such a person, let the love that likes him love him very much and protect him wholeheartedly; I hate him. I hate him to death, and my saliva overflows at the mention of him. Of course, you can question why the more criticized he is, the more popular he is; And I always wonder to what extent a person's nature is good, so that so many people can always trust him, follow him and love him under endless attacks and even abuse.
Now, why should I write this article? Because my friends who love Dawn are very interested in my trivial memories and want me to write them for everyone to see. She also asked me curiously: "If you are not his mini, where can you see his news?" I can't help but sigh: "Because of the person I like, he basically doesn't do any publicity. Fortunately, he is famous enough and has a high position. As long as you watch every entertainment news carefully, you may see his name somewhere. "
The person I like, his name is Leslie Cheung. He and dawn have a long friendship. In the words of James J.S.Wong, he was the first person to discover the potential of Dawning, and he also had practical support. Dawn is also a big fan of Leslie Cheung and has bought almost all his records ... This is another story, so I won't go into details here. Personally, I firmly believe in Leslie Cheung's vision. All the friends he made were good-natured, and all the colleagues he praised were talented and diligent. It is obvious that Dawn is both a friend he made and a colleague he praised. Leslie Cheung once publicly complained to reporters: "It is unfair to always say that Dawn is out of tune. It was you who praised him, and everyone knows why, because there was a vacuum in the music scene at that time. What are you doing with them? You bought tickets for those TV and radio people when they performed, right? They are young, they have to catch up with the show and have a certain reputation. Which one is not out of tune? Who says singing can't be out of tune? I think everyone's thinking is perfect. As long as you lower your requirements, everyone will be happier. "
I just dug up an old story. It turns out that Lin Bing and Leslie Cheung were chatting ten years ago. At that time, just after the Top Ten Song Awards Ceremony, Leslie Cheung presented Dawn with the most popular male singer award. Half of this article is about dawn. Now RongShao and Jie are gone, which looks particularly embarrassing:
Rong: Sister Bing, you are happy. Your Boy won the most popular male singer award.
Bing: My "boy"? It's not that I want this "boy", it's a gift to me. There is such a beautiful "boy" school, of course, we must accept it with pleasure.
Rong: How nice! Giving him this prize will give him more confidence in the future. Some people need encouragement. The more you praise them, the better you do. Li Ming is such a person.
Bing: Why do you cherish the dawn so much?
Rong: I cherish everyone. However, many years ago, we met once, and I told him something that he firmly remembered …
Bing: Was that when I was having dinner at Mr. He's house?
Rong: I don't remember. However, he always remembers. Sister Bing, you have to help him. He is very nice, but he is too withdrawn.
Bing: How can he be isolated? Can't he talk to them? Or is his own thought completely different from others?
Rong: I think he is more or less obsessed. But he's a good man.
Bing: Jacky Cheung is a good man, so is Andy Lau. They don't deliberately create dawn isolation.
Rong: I think the most important thing is not to communicate with each other. They were joking, but he didn't understand or laugh; He was joking, but they didn't understand and didn't laugh. As a result, he has himself and others have others.
Bing: Really?
Rong: I didn't know until I told you one thing: Before every performance, Dawn hid in the toilet and sat alone. There are so many people there that there is nothing to say. He doesn't get along well with others. I haven't been together before, so what, but I still sit there, sitting on whichever side I like, and why I have to avoid people. I told Li Ming not to hide from people, but to hide in the toilet. It's terrible.
Bing: Because you know he is isolated, you care about him especially?
Rong: You can say that. I think he is isolated, so I care about him very much.
Bing: What do you think of singing at dawn?
Rong: He has a good voice and a bright future. You know, Sister Bing, singing, like filming, takes time to practice. One day, once he understands and grasps that feeling, he will "enter" quickly and sing well.
Bing: Last night, Yu Gujin, you came out confidently. When you talk to Li Ming, you look like a professor. He looks like a student.
Rong: He has always regarded me as a teacher.
Bing: Rong Shao, did you know in advance that he would win the most popular male singer award of Jade Pure Gold?
Rong: I don't know. I just found out who won the prize. I don't know. This award is so fair. The most popular male singer, who has thousands of fans, is not the most popular? ……
Speaking of Dawn's attitude towards Leslie Cheung, it verifies what people familiar with Dawn have said: Dawn is not a hypocritical, indifferent and arrogant person, but he has suffered too many inexplicable attacks and has a strong defensive mentality towards the outside world, especially the media; As long as we really get together and take off our armor, the real him is unexpectedly pure and friendly. Once I watched Leslie Cheung attend a cocktail party. When I saw him at dawn, I ran to chat happily. Leslie Cheung was sitting, and it was dawn. I squatted on his knee and whispered, and I didn't mind reporters taking pictures. 1996 Leslie Cheung held a concert, and came back from Malaysia at dawn. As soon as I got off the plane, I rushed to Honggeng scene and rushed to the background, panting and saying, "Leslie, I'm coming!" At that time, Leslie Cheung was already standing on the elevator, ready to play. He waved like a child and said, "Good boy, go and find a seat." (It makes me sweat till dawn ~ ~ ~:-P)
In the middle of the concert, Leslie Cheung threw Dawn up to perform together, and sang a song "White-haired Beauty", which was written by Leslie Cheung and sung by Dawn. It is a mandarin version of this song. Dawn on the stage said, "Leslie was the first superstar to invite me to dinner after I participated in the rookie singing competition." At that time, Leslie taught me to be practical no matter how to wear a shirt. I remember it today. "He just smiled and bowed his head. It was the dawn in my memory, with a simple and honest even shy smile. ...
The last time I saw the news of Dawn was after the death of Leslie Cheung. Dawn is one of the few celebrities who didn't attend Leslie Cheung's funeral. I was never naive enough to think that not attending the funeral would mean anything, so I didn't pay attention to it, but I happened to see Liming's agent saying that Liming had been crying when he learned the news of Leslie Cheung's death. Everyone was worried that he would lose control at the funeral and be caught by the outside world, so she advised him not to go.
I mean, he-he's stupid. Really. ……
Birthday I'm so happy. Let's not talk about it. There are many things I haven't said about the dawn in my eyes, such as the dawn of resigning to accept the prize, the dawn of doing good deeds extensively, and the dawn of opening my heart occasionally … But how can a person be told by such a trivial text when he has so many faces? I still don't like listening to his songs, and I don't particularly appreciate his movies. I still think his character is quite flawed, but there is no reason not to bless such a sincere and kind man. This article is for Mr. Liming, wishing him a happy birthday. Send it to my friend ZXJ, too. Let's celebrate. I am destined to fall in love with someone who deserves my love all my life.
