After several years of unremitting efforts, Jiang Dawei finally reaped fruitful results and cherished a fortune that was enough to make people's hearts move. So, he decided to take his family on a trip to Canada, where he bought a luxurious villa and enrolled his beloved daughter in a top university, where he was ready to live and work for a long time.
However, good times are always short-lived. Jiang Dawei originally thought that he was about to realize his dream of being a "big man" and could enjoy his precious old age to the fullest, but the reality gave him a heavy blow. The cost of living in Canada far exceeded his expectations, and it took only a few years to exhaust his hard-earned wealth.
Although Jiang Dawei became a household name overnight with the song "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is", at the same time, his series of scandals were also exposed, casting a haze over his otherwise brilliant reputation.
The first thing that was revealed was the truth that he had never paid any copyright fees to the famous composer Xu Jingqing. It is understood that most of the scores of this well-known classic work were actually composed by Xu Jingqing. However, in that era of infinite scenery, Jiang Dawei didn't seem to care about it, and it wasn't until many years later, when the old man Xu Jingqing made a public statement, that he had to bow his head and admit his mistake.
What makes people question Jiang Dawei's "moral corruption" is the scandal that broke out in 2010 by a woman named Yao Man. Yao Man not only claimed to be Jiang Dawei's agent, but even his lover, and there were often "some kind of deals" between the two. What's even more amazing is that she actually showed an IOU of up to 900,000 yuan in public, accusing Jiang Dawei of long-term arrears. After this incident was exposed, Jiang Dawei instantly fell into the whirlpool of public opinion, and his reputation suffered a heavy blow.
Fortunately, after the investigation of the legal process, it was found that Yao Man's accusations were extortion, and Jiang Dawei did not owe her such a huge amount. However, this turmoil undoubtedly seriously damaged Jiang Dawei's image in the eyes of the public, and also laid a hidden danger for his future "late season insecurity".
What is even more unacceptable is Jiang Dawei's arrogant attitude towards Zhu Zhiwen, an artist from the bottom. In 2011, Zhu Zhiwen stood out in the talent show, and Jiang Dawei immediately expressed his willingness to accept him as an apprentice, but a few years later he publicly denied this master-apprentice relationship, and even said extremely insulting words such as "I don't have such a farmer apprentice". This kind of extremely rude words and deeds made Jiang Dawei criticized by the majority of netizens.
However, life in Canada was too luxurious, and Jiang Dawei did not last long, squandering the wealth he had worked so hard to accumulate in China. Seeing that the once strong foundation was gone, he had to make a difficult choice - to give up his lucrative job and resolutely choose to return to China for development.
Who would have thought that the road back to China was full of twists and turns. Jiang was shocked to find that he had few commercial resources and performance opportunities left in China.
When faced with such troubles, Jiang Dawei was speechless, and could only reluctantly pretend to be calm and swallow the pain in his stomach. In fact, he was full of self-reproach deep down. As a generation of music giants, he now has to show up at the wedding of a wealthy man in a low voice, singing for a small salary.
At the scene, Jiang Dawei clenched the microphone and frowned, as if he was trying his best to hide his inner uneasiness. The huge gap and the blow of reality made him on the verge of collapse several times, and he almost shed tears in front of everyone.
This is in stark contrast to his infinite scenery in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala in the past.
I have to admit that Jiang Dawei's life is like a roller coaster, constantly switching between glory and loss. He fell from the peak of the music industry to the trough, and he was willing to sell his talent and soul for money, which is really embarrassing.
Jiang Dawei was undoubtedly a highly regarded art master. Today, however, he performs on a small open-air stage, surrounded only by a few bodyguard-like security guards, and the audience is so deserted that there is not even a hint of applause.
Sometimes, God plays tricks on people, and suddenly a storm falls, but Jiang Dawei still stubbornly stands in the center of the stage, singing loudly, letting the wind and rain mercilessly lap his unmodified gray hair and wrinkled face.
He gripped the microphone tightly, leaning forward, eyes closed, as if he was singing as hard as he could.
However, the stage was empty, except for a few well-dressed security guards guarding the surroundings, except for the sound of icy rain hitting the ground. Seeing this former music superstar so down, people can't help but sigh: Jiang Dawei's reputation is no longer there, and it may be difficult to rebuild his glory.
In the course of Jiang Dawei's life, he personally chose to bring his brilliant career and lofty reputation to an end. He undoubtedly has the ability to become an art giant who will always be remembered, however, he is entangled in personal wealth and fame, and finally he cannot resist the temptation of money, quietly leaving his homeland and embarking on a luxurious life of "hard work at home and indulgence abroad" in a foreign land.
When he returned to his homeland, his career was like a river, and he could only whisper on those small stages, begging for those insignificant performance opportunities to barely make ends meet. Every time he stepped onto the stage, the empty auditorium inexorably revealed that the reputation he once had was gone.
As the majority of netizens said, Jiang Dawei's life in his later years can be described as "not guaranteed in his later years". His life trajectory has undoubtedly become a vivid "negative teaching material" for all artists, always reminding them to always remain modest and cautious, not too conceited, and only by learning to be satisfied with and cherish everything that exists can they truly realize their self-worth.
