Later, in a program, my old friend Wang Weizhong asked Jonathan Lee if he had said this sentence.
Jonathan Lee replied, "That's not true. Jacky Cheung represents an era, Eason Chan represents an era, and the aesthetics of each era are different. Aska Yang has the opportunity to define an aesthetics that is now called singing well. "
In 2004, the talent show "Super Girl" launched by Hunan Satellite TV was popular all over the country, which set off an imitation craze in China TV circle. At one time, dozens of video channels launched the same type of talent show, and the Chinese pop music scene entered the talent show era.
In 2007, Jonathan Lee is holding a world tour concert of Sense and Sensibility, and Taiwan Province TV industry launched a talent show Super Avenue of Stars.
Aska Yang, a 23-year-old college student, boldly said: "My mother gave me this kind of singing to impress the audience in Taiwan Province Province."
Just arrived at the stage of "Avenue of Stars", Aska Yang left a row of bangs, and his facial defects were completely exposed. Roger, the stylist of the show, shook his head. The audience teased him that he was a caveman. He was depressed: "Why are all the other contestants princes and I am a caveman?"
As the competition progressed, Aska Yang impressed the audience in Taiwan Province with his excellent voice, which was regarded by the audience as "saving our ears and emotions". Everyone likes his shy and wooden appearance on the stage, and he is easily moved to cry. Aska Yang soon became the king of popularity on the Avenue of Stars.
In May of that year, the newspaper published its first report about Aska Yang, praising him for "singing well".
Jam Hsiao came to kick the pavilion and challenged Aska Yang. They fought fiercely and Jam Hsiao became famous. The "Betrayal" sung by the two men rushed to the top of the KTV Mandarin on-demand list in Taiwan Province Province within a week.
At that time, as long as Aska Yang sang a song on the "Super Avenue of Stars" every week, the on-demand rate of KTV in Taiwan would rise immediately. At that time, some media predicted that Aska Yang would be the "star of tomorrow" in Taiwan Province pop music.
But "tomorrow" hasn't come yet, so right and wrong come first.
Two weeks later, Aska Yang was found to have faked his age, because he had been expelled from school, served in military service and was admitted to three universities, and his actual age was 29.
Then he was convicted of forgery by the Taipei District Prosecutor's Office for altering his identity card, and the prosecution was postponed.
When Aska Yang was sentenced to forced labor, fans swarmed in, and the police station sent more policemen to "escort" for fear of trouble.
Later, Aska Yang stood on the stage of the Avenue of Stars again, admitted his mistake and voluntarily retired.
He cried on the stage and said, "I just wanted to sing, so I wrote the registration form with the age of a senior."
The fans begged him not to quit, and the audience cried with him.
I left the Avenue of Stars and signed a contract with my agent in June 2007, 165438+ 10.
From June 5438 to October 2008 10, more than a dozen famous musicians, such as A Xin (Mayday), Tanya Chua, Ricky and Yao Ruolong, created Aska Yang's debut album "Dove", which topped the record sales list in Taiwan Province Province in the first half of the year with a sales volume of 70,000 copies.
The single "Onion" was voted as one of the top 100 singles of Taipei Voice Hit Fm, and Aska Yang sang "If you are willing to peel my heart layer by layer, you will find that you are my most repressed secret".
Because of its infectious crying, it is called "the God of Tears".
At the critical moment of his career, he had a friction with his agent.
Xu accused "Super Avenue of Stars" of playing big cards, playing missing and engaging in confrontation after it became popular, and even posing as a propagandist to ask the organizers about the film payment and contract details because he didn't trust the company.
Aska Yang applied to the court to terminate the contract relationship with the brokerage company in advance, pointing out: "Everyone should be very cautious when choosing partners and protect themselves."
Bai Bingbing, a senior, came out as a peacemaker. He couldn't talk about Aska Yang, leaving only one sentence: "It's a pity that children are too shallow."
He Xu's lawsuit lasted for one year, and it didn't end until June of 20 10, and his career was stagnant for one year.
At the same time, Jam Hsiao, who made her debut on the Avenue of Stars, topped the charts with The Princess.
After parting ways with Xu, he signed a contract with gold medal agent Ge.
Ge Fuhong asked him, "Who do you want to be your producer?" Aska Yang blurted out Jonathan Lee, so Ge Fuhong arranged for Aska Yang to go to Beijing to cooperate with Jonathan Lee.
At this time, when Jonathan Lee was busy with Tayu Lo, Emil Wakin Chau and Zhang Zhenyue, he came to make "primary colors" for Aska Yang.
In order to create "primary colors", Jonathan Lee was only allowed to keep four musical instruments. He wants to do subtraction for Aska Yang, hoping that he can return to the simplest musical state.
Jonathan Lee adopted three songs composed by Aska Yang. When he was about to sing, Aska Yang found that the lyrics and songs had been changed. He was going to talk to Jonathan Lee, but Jonathan Lee didn't give him a chance.
When he entered the recording studio, Aska Yang showed all his skills. Hearing this, Jonathan Lee ignored him for two weeks and recorded the first song for a month.
Jonathan Lee pointed at him and said, "Don't think you are good at singing. I know you talented singers all think you sing well. "
Aska Yang told jokes to please Jonathan Lee, but Jonathan Lee still kept a cold face.
I called Ge in the evening when I felt unwell and said that he wanted to go back to Taiwan Province.
He told Jonathan Lee that it was too cold in Beijing, and I had a cold and a sore throat.
Of course, Aska Yang didn't go back to Taiwan Province Province, and then it became awkward to get along with Jonathan Lee.
When Jonathan Lee came to talk to Aska Yang about his works again, no matter what advice Jonathan Lee gave, Aska Yang was "good" and "thank you, big brother".
In the end, everything they said was conveyed by the executive producer.
Ge Fuhong is from Taiwan Province, and his heart is in Beijing. He reminded Aska Yang that he should give Jonathan Lee some encouragement.
So Aska Yang wrote a long short message, ending with "Big Brother, I love you" and Jonathan Lee didn't answer.
On the last day of recording, Jonathan Lee had to go home and cook for her daughter. Without telling Aska Yang, she said goodbye to the staff outside the studio and left.
Aska Yang finished the recording, canceled the dinner with everyone and bought the earliest flight the next day. The next morning, on the way to the airport by taxi, Aska Yang cried so badly that he didn't want to go to Beijing for a long time.
The following year, Jonathan Lee talked about Aska Yang in Wang Weizhong's program. Jonathan Lee said he didn't like Aska Yang crying. This style is inappropriate in his works, and it is too flattering to the audience. He told Aska Yang: "Don't make music just to meet the aesthetics of the public."
The momentum of Jam Hsiao is just here, and the Taipei dome once again staged the grand occasion of selling tickets and then selling tickets and then killing them.
20 13, Jam Hsiao World Tour Concert, which lasted for one year and eight months, came to a successful conclusion. Aska Yang decided to go to Beijing to seek development and participated in the variety show "I am a singer".
In the competition of "I am a singer", Aska Yang chose "Reservation" which is not well-known in the market and the style is not suitable for him against the wishes of the economic company. As expected by the company, he was quickly eliminated.
After a bad start, he was very depressed and could only comfort himself with the idea that "one person is eliminated, and whoever goes to hell will not go to hell".
Later, in Resurrection, Aska Yang chose the relatively unpopular Tales of Wandering and Zen, because he gave up his obsession with winning and losing, and played very well in a completely relaxed situation, and won the third place in the finals.
"I am a singer" made Aska Yang popular and opened the mainland market.
He still didn't seize the opportunity.
At the end of the same year, Aska Yang participated in CCTV's large-scale public music program "Dream Star Partner".
In the previous selection, he and his partner Summer were not familiar with the songs, and they were still listening to the accompaniment and reciting the lyrics until they came on stage.
On the stage, the two sang "I'm sorry" and "Do you know who you are" respectively, which echoed all the time.
PK lost to Aruazhuo and Cheng Lin, who ranked lower in the previous competition, and entered the undetermined group.
The day before the knockout was recorded, two people who were under too much pressure suddenly announced their withdrawal from the "Dream Star Partner" competition, which caused the program not to be recorded normally.
Sa Beining, the host, scolded on the stage: "Aska Yang and Xia feel that this is an unacceptable pressure and challenge for them. They feel that they don't have enough mental state to face the other half on the stage. They left in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to tell them. In fact, on this stage, what really competes is not the skill of music, but the soul and character of music. "
After leaving "Dream Star Partner", he continued to release albums and hold concerts in the summer; Aska Yang continues to appear in variety shows.
Four years later, Aska Yang became popular again, and his partner Diamond sang the ending song "Cool" of the costume drama "to the sky kingdom".
The little sadness expressed in the melody and lyrics, combined with the voices of Aska Yang and Diamond, sang helplessness and emotion in the long years. At that time, this song was widely sung, and none of the many covers could match the original.
However, the title of this song was finally regarded by netizens as a summary of Aska Yang's singing career.
20 19 Liu Yuning, the lead singer of Modern Brothers, promotes his new album "Ah Tacit Understanding" in Weibo.
A few hours later, Aska Yang forwarded her singing "Ah Tacit Understanding" and wrote "Different moods, different realms", which caused controversy.
This incident once again affected the subsequent development of Aska Yang's singing career.
When I was a child, Aska Yang's eyebrows were sparse, and the two eyebrows added up to only as many as others. His friends teased him that he was a man with one eyebrow.
Later, he joined the school track and field team, and sports made him stand out. Once he returned to the classroom after training and found some cards and gifts from girls in his seat. He is very happy.
But when he got home, his mother ordered him to return them to others one by one. His mother said to him, "You are not so good either. Don't lie to others. "
Aska Yang walked into the girls' classrooms one by one and returned the presents to them. At that moment, he was embarrassed and complained about the girls who gave him gifts.
Since then, he has never accepted anything from girls. He began to like writing letters to people he liked, but he wouldn't send them, let alone let them know his mind.
Before taking part in the "Super Avenue of Stars", Aska Yang took part in a singing contest between Komatsu and Xiaobai. Xiaobai sarcastically said that he was ugly and suggested that he put on a mask: "To be strong, only 50% of his face is enough, do you understand? Half of it, not in the back. "
When he became popular on the program of the Avenue of Stars, Aska Yang secretly disobeyed the producer's orders, went shopping for breakfast in flip-flops and shorts, and was surrounded by people asking for autographs.
Once visiting the night market, he accidentally kicked over the goods in a booth. He immediately bowed his head and apologized, thinking that he would be scolded. Unexpectedly, the stall owner not only didn't scold him, but also took him to take pictures.
From that day on, he was ignorant and felt that if someone liked himself, he would not be scolded again.
In Aska Yang's first album, he once wrote a song "Look".
The lyrics write: Turn around and find a direction to hide, acquiesce in the polluted should, one day you will see calmly, you will find how narrow you are, then why there is no love, you will see the extra blank, you will fill it with warmth and care, you will see my feathers, and slowly shine through the song.
Children who are always laughed at regard talent as a weapon to please others, so proud that they forget their shape in the face of sudden praise.
The forgotten diva retired for 8 years and came out again.
It's too easy for her to play tens of millions of songs.
