There are definitely many proud records about Li Shengjie's infatuation: for three consecutive years, his infatuation has definitely remained in the top three in the national KTV on-demand rate list; On a famous music website in the mainland, the hit rate of this song in a single month exceeded10 million; At the same time, this song has always maintained the position of 10 in the major ringtone download websites. ...
If a song is so popular, its singer must be very popular, and he makes a lot of money-many people will think so. However, the opposite is true. After the song became popular, the singer was so poor that he had to work three jobs to make a living. He drives four hours a week from Kaohsiung to Taipei just to sing in a bar for one night. In two years, he changed three companies and changed his name twice, but no one wanted to help him make a record. [Edit this paragraph] A little missionary who experienced kindness and fraternity from art.
Li Shengjie comes from a Catholic family in Taiwan Province province. His ancestors first came to Kaohsiung to preach Catholicism, which is said to have a history of hundreds of years. It is said that while other children are still chasing and fighting outdoors, Li Shengjie at a young age has begun to learn to recite a Bible repeatedly, and his character has gradually become tolerant and kind.
When I was in the third grade of primary school, there was a tall and strong little fat man in Li Shengjie's class, who kept touching him and forcing him to buy himself lunch and copy his homework. Although Li Shengjie is often beaten black and blue by the little fat man, he always laughs at this kind of provocation. One day, the little fat man suddenly didn't come to class. Li Shengjie didn't know until he asked the teacher that the little fat man's parents and neighbors had misunderstood. I didn't expect that he suddenly disappeared with a large sum of money two days ago, leaving Xiao Pang and his sister at home. Xiao Pang had to stay at home in order to take care of his sister. In the afternoon, Li Shengjie came to the little fat man's house. When he learned that his brother and sister hadn't eaten for two days, he took Little Fatty and his sister home and asked his parents to take care of Little Fatty's brother and sister temporarily, no matter how little Fatty bullied him before.
"It seems that Shengjie will inherit our mantle and become a missionary!" Sheng Jie's parents are very happy to see his young but open-minded son. Parents' expectations also gave Sheng Jie a great psychological hint: from the day he became sensible, he knew that he would become a missionary like his parents when he grew up!
Without the choir, Li Shengjie would be a qualified missionary now.
When Li Shengjie was 6 years old, his father invited a choir from Taipei to sing in order to attract local people to church. It was a Sunday morning, when there was a holy and beautiful chorus floating in the church, Xiao Shengjie was suddenly attracted: he never knew that music could be so thrilling. Although he doesn't understand the meaning of the song, his heart seems to have been washed!
From that morning on, Li Shengjie said to himself: I want to stand on this stage and sing songs that can touch others.
Singing must be "cheeky"
/kloc-When he was 0/8 years old, he chose Soochow University, where Li Shengjie studied Chinese. Boys in the Chinese department are very romantic and pursue fashion. Among his classmates, Li Shengjie heard CDs of many popular singers at that time, such as Tayu Lo, Chyi Chin and Tong Ange.
"The first time I heard Tong Ange's songs, it was amazing, because it was very different from the music I used to listen to in church. So, at that time, I was a little crazy, listening to their CDs with headphones for almost 24 hours. "
Li Shengjie's first competition was a singing competition held by a TV variety show. On the day of the competition, more than 500 people participated. The song carefully prepared by Li Shengjie that day was Tayu Lo's My Hand Through Your Black Hair. When he just finished singing the first lyric "My hand runs through your black hair" in fear, he was interrupted by the referee: this classmate, please find your key before singing, and your key has gone to Keelung. ...
Li Shengjie's first game ended hastily in the laughter of the audience.
Although the first attempt to sing was a fiasco, it didn't dampen Li Shengjie's love for singing. After returning to school, he signed up for a singing club and formally accepted the training of a singing teacher. In the past six months, Li Shengjie started from the most basic vocal music practice, and almost all his spare time was spent singing, and once he even practiced vocal cord congestion.
Later, after dozens of failures, 1997, Li Shengjie participated in the singing contest of the variety show Super Newcomer King hosted by Wu Zongxian. In this competition, Li Shengjie chose an English song that she was best at, and she won the championship with five passes and six losses.
Among the judges that day, there was a famous musician Bao Bida. After the game, Bao Bida found Li Shengjie: "Do you want to be a singer and make a record?"
Li Shengjie agreed without thinking, but Li Shengjie didn't know that not every singer was as lucky as Tayu Lo and Chyi Chin!
Will not give up any chance to sing.
1999, under the elaborate production of Bao Bida, Li Shengjie released his first album "Cold Coffee" under the name of "Li Jie". Unexpectedly, shortly after the album was released, the signing company terminated the promotion of the album because of business problems, which means that in the record market of Taiwan Province Province, which is dominated by publicity, it voluntarily gave up the life of the album. So after Cold Coffee was introduced to the market, it was silently submerged by other singers' records.
Many people say that Li Shengjie's road to music is over, including his parents.
This is an unusually cold morning. Li Shengjie's elderly parents knocked on his door and looked at the shabby room and his haggard son. His father choked up and said, "Sanjay, come back with me and be a missionary like me." If you stay here, you will still suffer. "
Although I knew that I would be taken care of by my parents and have a comfortable job, it was a lost road to stay, but in order to realize my childhood dream, Li Shengjie shook his head and refused.
Off the career of parents, Li Shengjie know, this time he really is no way back.
Finally, on the recommendation of Bao Bida, Li Shengjie applied for a job in the famous bar "Hard Rock", which was his last hope.
But in the boss's opinion, instead of finding a singer who has made a record but is not famous, it is better to find an ordinary person who can perform kung fu live, and the price is cheap. Although he understood this truth, Li Shengjie didn't want to be defeated so easily, because he knew that giving up this opportunity meant giving up singing, and he would never get on the stage again.
Since then, Li Shengjie has come to "Hard Rock" early every night to see if there are any resident singers who have something to do temporarily to find a chance to take over. Li Shengjie had to stand outside the door because there was no extra money to spend in the bar. One day, two days, three days, every day.
After waiting at the door for more than 20 days, finally one day a singer couldn't go on stage because he suddenly couldn't speak. In desperation, I have long noticed that Li Shengjie's boss is waiting outside the door every night to call him in and let him save the scene.
That night's performance, Li Shengjie pulled out all the stops and won a house full of applause. After the performance, the boss told him that he could sing once a week in the future.
This life lasted for more than a year. Li Shengjie honed his singing skills and on-the-spot reaction ability through live performance, while silently waiting for the opportunity.
In 2002, with a wide range of 18 degrees and unlimited explosive power, he finally won the favor of producer Huang and had the opportunity to release his second album, Infatuation Absolute.
Infatuation definitely comes from unforgettable first love.
/kloc-One afternoon when he was 0/8 years old, he met a girl at Taipei Railway Station and fell in love with her at first sight, but he didn't have the courage to go forward and talk to her, so he could only watch her get off at her destination. But from that day on, for three months, Li Shengjie bought the same ticket and took the same bus at the same time every day just to see her again. Three months later, the girl suddenly disappeared. Although he was sad, Li Shengjie didn't regret it, because for him, good things don't have to be owned, only in his heart is eternal.
Maybe the taste of first love is too unforgettable. Li Shengjie made all the efforts to record this song, and it almost collapsed after recording.
However, fate once again played a modest joke on him.
At that time, the record market in Taiwan Province began to shrink gradually, and the internal system of the distribution company was not perfect. The company finally gave up the promotion of this record, which means that Li Shengjie's efforts were submerged again. ...
Therefore, he has to face two difficult choices: either go back to Kaohsiung to find an ordinary job and live a stable life, or continue to live a wandering life in Taipei, just waiting for an illusory future.
In order to live in Taipei, Li Shengjie had to choose a new way to make a living.
As a result, he became a swimming and tennis coach who lived by his body.
One day in 2003, a year after the album Absurdity was quietly released, Li Shengjie drove by Ximending and suddenly heard the same song playing in all major stores.
That is my own "infatuation is absolute"! Li Shengjie never dreamed that this song would become popular a year later.
Later, just as Richie Jen's "Too Soft" was widely sung a few years ago, "Absurd Love" quickly spread from Taiwan Red to Chinese mainland, Singapore and Malaysia, Thailand and other places.
Even so, when Li Shengjie was walking on the road, no one stopped him from asking for his autograph, because everyone only knew that "infatuation was definitely sung by Li Shengjie", but they had never seen what he looked like. Maybe God finally saw Li Shengjie's efforts. After waiting for three years, Li Shengjie finally got a chance to release his third album "Let Go of Infatuation" in early 2005.
This time, the record company invested tens of millions of publicity funds to promote this record. With Li Shengjie's own strength, it seems difficult to get rid of it this time.
"I believe that success is not accidental, but success must also depend on luck. In addition to hard work and luck, success is inevitable. " This kind of situation can only be understood by people who have experienced layers of hardships.
Although the journey was not smooth, he never gave up his musical dream and tempered himself through live performances. Therefore, his excellent singing skills finally won the favor of producer Huang, and he had a chance to start again. Range 18 degrees, unlimited explosive power, and various styles and different types of songs make Li Shengjie's infinite voice possible to bring completely different auditory enjoyment. After Li Shengjie released four solo albums "Songs About You" in 2006, it was very popular with fans. In 2008, the brand-new fifth solo album "Put it away" was his first tension work when he set up his own music production company after bidding farewell to Rolling Stone. In 2009, he released his sixth solo album, which is the only music album of Li Shengjie in ten years.
