It is also the "resident" of CCTV Spring Festival Evening program, and is known as "national treasure" and "national throat".
Strangely, David Jiang seems to have disappeared recently, and various rumors about him have surfaced.
In 2003, a woman named Yao Man said, "I am David Jiang's lover and agent. He lent me 900 thousand and never paid it back! "
The "three dynasties elders" in the music circle don't respect the old, have an extramarital affair with the broker and don't repay the loan?
Netizens were greatly surprised. David Jiang is full of awe. I really don't see him doing such a thing.
But this is just one of the reasons why David Jiang suddenly disappeared.
(A) the history of fame
The image of a public figure is not suddenly collapsed, but slowly, bit by bit, crushed by some seemingly insignificant things.
1947 65438+1October 22nd, Heping District, Tianjin, David Jiang was born in a wealthy family. He studied art and music with his uncle, who had difficulty in moving. When he graduated from junior high school, he applied for the Academy of Fine Arts. I studied western painting for eight years, but I didn't pass the exam, but my musical talent was revealed.
19 years old, David Jiang just caught up with the community propaganda team to recruit actors. Young people are always ambitious and want to do something big, so they signed up with several classmates.
Successfully entered the propaganda department and sang.
David Jiang is very talented and looks very gentle. Zhang, the captain of the propaganda team, has a secret crush on him. They have been in the same place for a long time, and they are all young people. They naturally talked about love.
1947, 27-year-old He Zhang returned to his hometown of Tianjin to attend the wedding with the consent of his parents.
After four years of marriage, their baby daughter Jiang Yi was born, with a middle-aged son and an only child. David Jiang naturally dotes on Jiang Yi.
1984, the first time I attended the Spring Festival Gala, was an energetic young man, handsome and young, wearing glasses, and quite elegant. His singing "Where Peach Blossoms Bloom" caused a sensation among the audience and was also famous in the circle.
A year later, he became the head of the Central National Song and Dance Troupe. His songs have been played many times in TV series, and many people rushed to invite him to sing on stage, which made him famous and famous.
But the songs that really made him famous were "Song of Peony" and "Dare to ask where the road is".
1987, David Jiang sang the ending song "Dare to ask where the road is" of The Journey to the West, which was popular all over the country, and almost every household could hear his singing. Even now, few singers can be so popular.
Those years were the pinnacle of his career. He won the first gold record award in China and became a famous tenor in China.
Everywhere he goes, there are flowers and applause, which is very popular, and his songs have spread all over the world.
(2) emigration
Many people tend to go downhill at the peak of their lives.
1997, David Jiang was invited to perform in Vancouver and was attracted by Vancouver. For the sake of his daughter's future, he decided to settle abroad.
In 2000, it took David Jiang three years to get a green card by borrowing money from a friend.
There are concerns at home and abroad, and I originally planned to sing in two fields.
Unfortunately, the world is not as good as people, and the foreign music scene is not very suitable for David Jiang.
I didn't get many performances in Vancouver for several years, and Zhang's frugality couldn't solve the difficulties at that time-no money and too much foreign consumption.
On the contrary, it is a household name in China, and its popularity has always been there, although it is not as good as the peak moment.
Therefore, he made up his mind to return to China to collect gold. Rich domestic resources are conducive to career development and can get more generous returns. But throughout the ages, people have always had a good impression on swing grass.
The insiders learned that David Jiang will go all out to return to China for development, and they all ridiculed:
"Foreign bread is not sweet, or acclimatized? . "
"You have fun in Vancouver. Why did you come back to grab food with us? "
After emigrating to Vancouver, David Jiang's career suffered a certain blow. After returning to China, he did not flinch because of the exclusion of his peers.
Although there are few opportunities to perform songs, the number is still considerable. Some stars will be invited to sing at the opening ceremony, the opening of the property market and company activities. Singing a song will cost hundreds of thousands of appearance fees.
(b) "900,000 pounds in arrears" from David Jiang and Yao Man.
David Jiang, whose scenery is no longer beautiful, began to roam Shang Yan. In order to adapt to the domestic music market, he performed with Yao Man.
David Jiang and Yao Man are friends of 1997. Because they are very close, they are very casual about money and have not signed an agreement.
According to Yao Man, she often lives in David Jiang's house, and many of her personal belongings are also stored in David Jiang's home.
What kind of relationship can make two lonely men and women live in the same room?
Yao Man claimed that at the beginning of 2003, because a commercial performance fell through, she deposited 900,000 cash in David Jiang's residence and asked David Jiang to write an IOU. Who would have thought that David Jiang didn't return the money to her?
I have to expose "David Jiang didn't pay back the money", hoping to get the money back.
However, David Jiang said that he and Yao Man are not lovers, they are just partners.
Yao Man introduced the performance, and he performed on the stage. The last cooperation between them was a suit endorsement, and the endorsement fee was more than 300,000 yuan, which was pocketed by Yao Man.
He felt that Yao Man was unreliable, so he offered to suspend cooperation.
Who knows, a few days later, Yao Man came to the door with a few sunglasses to block him, forcing David Jiang to write an iou, and even released "Don't give me money, let you go bankrupt!"
David Jiang had a mind's eye, deliberately set the date on the IOU as March 20th, 2003, and on this day, he was not at home.
Later, with the support of his wife Zhang, he reported the police. Because the date of the IOU was wrong, it proved his innocence, broke the "debt gate" incident in David Jiang, and Yao Man was arrested.
After all, it was Yao Man who blackmailed "900,000 yuan".
Or David Jiang borrowed money and didn't pay it back, and was involved in erotic news.
Outsiders can't understand it either.
Although David Jiang has obvious evidence to prove his innocence, the "Arrears Gate" incident has had a great impact on his career.
Many certain commercial activities were cancelled by Party A, and the award selection of that year was also cancelled one after another.
Fortunately, his wife Zhang has always trusted him.
At that time, he was annoyed by the "arrears gate" incident and fled back to Vancouver. He was called to abuse and ridicule by some colleagues. It is Zhang who has been silently supporting him behind his back, encouraging him to go back to China to call the police and defend himself with the law.
The dispute between David Jiang and Yao Man ended with Yao Man serving five years in prison, and David Jiang won the case.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of David Jiang's personal moral problems. There are many reasons for his criticism.
(3) Teacher Xu Jingqing
1980, Xu Jingqing recorded the 86th edition of The Journey to the West's last ending song, took a fancy to David Jiang at a glance, and tried his best to teach his housekeeping skills to David Jiang.
They get along well with each other like a master and apprentice. Under the guidance of Xu Jingqing, David Jiang has made great progress.
1986, he became famous overnight by singing the song "Dare to ask where the road is", which spread all over the country and laid the foundation for his future success. David Jiang is in his forties. Most men of this age are mature and have stable jobs.
At that time, he had a rich voice with metallic audio, and occupied a place in the music world with superb singing skills.
Only this singer is not popular, and many people are not very familiar with David Jiang himself.
In the same year, CCTV Spring Festival Gala invited David Jiang to sing "Where Peach Blossoms Bloom", which was well known to the audience and the whole country.
At that time, people's economy was not as good as it is now. In the past, a dime could buy five yuan of tofu, and the monthly income of urban residents was not higher than 1000 yuan. David Jiang can earn 250,000 yuan just by singing one song.
Practicing art almost every day. Every month, Shang Yan is full of activities. Some organizers proposed that David Jiang sing the ending song "Dare to ask where the road is" as the finale.
20 15, Xu Jingqing wants to hold a concert, but the cost is not enough. He thought of his school sister David Jiang and wanted David Jiang to sponsor some funds.
David Jiang's success is inseparable from Xu Jingqing's support. The Journey to the West was very popular at that time, and almost all men, women and children in the country loved to watch it. Even now, it is a century-long drama.
Being able to sing the theme song of this TV series can almost imagine how high David Jiang can be pushed.
But David Jiang is not nostalgic. He refused Xu Jingqing's request.
Xu Jingqing was furious and wanted to get back the copyright of the song, but David Jiang was not afraid and simply said, "You can sue me through legal procedures."
After that, I continued to sing "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is" as the finale of my personal concert.
The brief mentoring relationship between the two also disappeared.
Some people think that David Jiang is too selfish. He doesn't know how to repay those who have helped him. On the contrary, he bites the hand that feeds him. This behavior is quite unpleasant.
Since then, David Jiang's outspoken comments on Zhu Zhiwen have inevitably hurt his career.
The tenor, virtuous and artistic, has a kind face, and his brow is full of awe, but he often satirizes the younger generation of farmers.
(4) Comment that Zhu Zhiwen is not a singer.
Zhu Zhiwen met David Jiang's senior when he participated in the talent show "Avenue of Stars". He was conquered by his gorgeous high notes and brilliant lyrics and songs and admired him very much.
I especially like the peonies in Song Like. At a crew dinner, Zhu Zhiwen sang David Jiang's songs, and David Jiang was beaming and full of praise for Zhu Zhiwen.
Said a few words to Zhu Zhiwen to the effect that:
"When you are practicing songs, remember to improve your cultivation and knowledge."
This sentence is very intriguing, suggesting that Zhu Zhiwen has a low academic background and low self-cultivation.
After all, David Jiang has received higher education since he was a child, and has a rich family background, comprehensive cultivation and knowledge.
People at the scene clamored for David Jiang to accept Zhu Zhiwen as an apprentice. Zhu Zhiwen smiled and said, "I am very happy. I hope that Teacher David Jiang will give you more advice in the future. "
Strangely, a few days later, David Jiang not only refused to recognize Zhu Zhiwen as his apprentice, but also bluntly disliked Zhu Zhiwen. Zhu Zhiwen's worship of him as a teacher is just a kind of hype.
This sentence caused some netizens discomfort, thinking that David Jiang had gone with the wind.
20 19, when David Jiang participated in a variety show, he once again expressed his dislike for Zhu Zhiwen:
"Farmers are farmers, singers are singers, and you are not a singer if you are a farmer."
There is always something interesting in the words.
Netizens have been attacking David Jiang, angry at his behavior of looking down on farmers, and satirizing farmers for not being singers.
Now Zhu Zhiwen is more popular than him. After short video exposure, Shang Yan continued.
I have to say, David Jiang is well received in the music world, and he has certain capital to comment on the younger generation, but he should be temperate in everything and not make unscrupulous comments.
In the face of the overwhelming abuse on the Internet, David Jiang said calmly that it was the program group that made him do it and wanted to save Yu Sheng.
But netizens don't buy it. To this day, many people still use this incident to define the morality of old artists.
After the Zhu Zhiwen incident, David Jiang was almost set on fire, and it was also crowded with people.
(E) David Jiang's "Green Card Mystery"
The incident of satirizing Zhu Zhiwen as a farmer rather than a singer hasn't passed yet, and another thing about him has been dug up.
When David Jiang's career was in full swing, he chose to emigrate, which became the reason for netizens to verbally attack him.
There is a strange trend in the entertainment industry. It seems that whoever makes a fortune and becomes a big shot will emigrate.
However, stars who emigrate abroad will basically return to China to earn money. While enjoying foreign welfare, they also want to take into account the dividends of the motherland. It tastes ugly.
It is similar to "eat in a bowl and watch in a pot", or the ancestors can understand it.
However, foreign money is not easy to earn, and these immigrant stars have no market abroad at all, and no audience pays the bill.
After David Jiang transferred his career to China, although there were some bumps, he gradually got on the right track. He was invited by CCTV's Spring Festival Evening program, and Major Shang Yan won the prize.
Not long after, he revealed on a platform that he actually had a green card.
In other words, this renegade character is really unlike one of the most influential tenors in China in the 20th century.
(vi) Conclusion
Although some behaviors are shameful, he is still a very good person on the whole. He loved his wife for 50 years and indulged his only daughter.
He left us many immortal works, such as Peony Flowers, Peach Blossoms in Full Bloom and Spring in the Northland. ....
Over the past 50 years, he has performed thousands of songs and sang theme songs for nearly 100 film and television works. Now the older generation loves to listen, and they also have influence among young people. These songs are widely sung.
It can be said that there is a heart to plant flowers and flowers, but there is no intention to plant willow trees.
He has been on CCTV Spring Festival Evening program 13 times for decades.
Put a layer of starlight on David Jiang's singing road.
Won the first China Golden Record Award, Music Achievement Award, Chinese and African artists and other awards.
His voice is super penetrating and magnetic, with smooth voice line conversion, clear treble, deep and steady bass and rich feelings in singing.
Overseas evaluation shows that he is "the representative of contemporary folk songs in China" and "Pavalo in China".
David Jiang represents the prosperity of the 20th century, and many classic songs have been included in China folk songs and historical songs.
No one is perfect, everyone is wrong to some extent, and there are no perfect people in this world.
Every move of public figures has attracted much attention, and it is even more important to pay attention to words and deeds without making mistakes, because one step is wrong.
