What is a true idol?
At the 2021 Greater Bay Area Mid-Autumn Festival Film and Music Gala, 74-year-old Lin Zixiang appeared.
Instant orgasm, hi turn the whole scene.
Even the famous Jackie Chan smiled like a child.
Sweet Lady and Zhong Zhentao have no expression management and swing together.
Hui Yinghong returned to "Girlhood" with a shy face.
Yao Chen can take a few photos: this old man on the stage is not common.
Why does Lin Zixiang make the stars crazy?
In addition to his high rank, he is also because he is a true superstar.
In today's Hong Kong entertainment industry, Lin Zixiang, who debuted in the 70s, has representative works such as "In the Middle of the Water", "Minutes Need You" and "Choice".
It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it.
Huang Feihong's royal song "Boys Should Be Self-Reliant", he sang.
Zhou Xingchi's "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qi'er" brainwashed song "Long Road with You", he also sang.

On the curry position.
Zhang Guorong idolized him.

Andy Lau regarded him as a musical mentor.
Jacky Cheung said every time: When Lin Zixiang was present, please don't call me a god of song.
Even the son he gave birth to is a scarce male god with good looks and acting skills in the current Hong Kong film circle.

Lin Zixiang's status can be called a real superstar in Hong Kong for a hundred years.
But he is a person in the Hong Kong entertainment industry who is low-key to dust.
In the Chinese song world of the Golden Age, there was no shortage of "song saints", "song masters" and "song immortals".
Wei Lin Zixiang, known as "Ge Yin".
I don't like to be in the limelight, and I don't even like to talk much.
The most high-profile behavior in recent years, except for the 2021 Greater Bay Area Mid-Autumn Festival Gala.
It is Li Keqin, who appeared in "I Am a Singer" in 2016 and supported his friend Li Keqin, who entered the final.
Refuse to participate in any TV shows for the rest of the time.
It's in stark contrast to the old superstars who are still desperately trying to play their residual heat.
Even if you send out your own songs, you will not run the announcement to promote it, but like to let it ferment naturally.
In the mid-1990s, more than 20 Hong Kong actresses rated male stars.
Several female singers, including Mei Yanfang, the biggest "label" attached to Lin Zixiang is——
- "Too low-key".
This is almost a "pagan" in the entertainment industry, which has a natural preference for exposure.
Why would Lin Zixiang be so low-key and terrible?
It even makes people feel that he does not look like an entertainment star.

Lin Zixiang is different from most Hong Kong stars who are "forced" into the industry because of their livelihoods.
Born into a medical family, life is good.
In his early years, he studied in the UK and entered the entertainment industry because he loved music.
Beardless Lin Zixiang
This made his pursuit of his career more primitive and fierce.
For example, in the same era, Xu Guanjie and Tan Yonglin pursued a rock and roll style at that time.
Because of the popularity, the market also likes.

But Lin Zixiang insisted on integrating Broadway opera and Western classical music into Chinese pop music.
In his "Every Night", there is a combination of Chinese minor keys and Italian folk songs.
Lin Zixiang often said: "Each song is like a different script, with different attempts and emotions."
At the 1985 Top Ten Golden Melody Awards Ceremony, Lin Zixiang burned the nearly 20 songs that were popular that year with exquisite arrangements.
The first 10-minute song was sung, and the famous "Ten Twelve Inches" was famous.
Gu Juji listened to it and knelt down to shout Lao Zu (one of Gu Juji's masterpieces, "Jinge Golden Song", is a similar skewered work).
It shows its boldness, but also its talent.
Lin Zixiang's concert met with crazy fans
Looking around the current Chinese music scene, adhere to the original, and the quantity of high-quality musicians.
There was only one Jay Chou.
Similarly, in the 1970s, the original little prince of the Hong Kong music scene first promoted Lin Zixiang.
The media has disclosed such a set of data:
At that time, people in the Hong Kong pop music scene, Zhong Zhentao and Chen Baiqiang wrote their own songs on an album, accounting for less than 30%.
"Principal Tan" is slightly more powerful, accounting for 50%.
Wei Lin Zixiang, he wrote the song of the whole album himself.
Tan Yonglin and Lin Zixiang sang duet
This creative talent is also reflected in the fact that he single-handedly helped Ye Qianwen create the album "Zero Hour Ten".
Directly send the latter to the position of a first-line female singer.
Many years later, Jay Chou wrote the most critical songs for Jolin Tsai's album "Look at My 72 Changes" and made it popular again.
It's the same thing.

What's behind the usual talent?
strength.
I once watched an interview with Lin Zixiang, and in the face of reporters' questions, he was very much like an "old Versailles":
"I don't like to win awards, not modesty, because winning awards makes me feel uncomfortable"
In fact, Lin Zixiang took all the awards that can be won in the Chinese music scene.
These include the Golden Needle Award, the highest honor in the Hong Kong music scene.
He also won an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor with Xu Anhua's "Running to the Fury Sea".
"Run to the Fury Sea" Lin Zixiang
Some people say this about Lin Zixiang: one of the most high-pitched male singers in the Hong Kong music scene.
Lin Zixiang's soaring, no false sound, will not become sharper.
Instead, it struck with an imposing male voice.
If you don't have to describe it in one word, it's fried.
For example, the 2021 Greater Bay Area Mid-Autumn Festival Gala.
A song "Dare to Love dare to do", full open wheat, the end of the song 28 beats, in one go.
It is not unreasonable for the stars to dance.
"Dare to Love dare to do"
Therefore, the 74-year-old Lin Zixiang also happened to poke an embarrassment in the current entertainment industry.
The younger generation of artists is paying less and less attention to their professional strength.
Savor the implication that he doesn't like to win awards—
"I prefer to stand on stage and sing, and they listen offstage."
It is exactly the "tea theory" that represents the spirit of the performing arts craftsman.
What you think and want is not the result, but the perfect process and display.
Lin Zixiang has said more than once: The essence of acting is to sincerely invest in feelings and exchange applause.
There are no shortcuts.
The three views are very positive, there is no.
Like Uncle Dominion, who will come out and roar whenever the actor's attitude and skills are not good.
Chen Daoming said that young actors are dedicated
Whether it is Chen Daoming or Lin Zixiang, artists like them always know one thing.
This circle, after all, relies on its ability to eat.
Remember that Li Xuejian once played the "King of the Northeast" Zhang Zuolin in the TV series "Young Marshal".
The C position of this drama was originally Zhang Xueliang, played by the article.
But teacher Li Xuejian conquered all the audiences with the charm of acting skills, so that after the role of Zhang Zuolin was offline, some netizens directly called for the end of the play.
"Young Marshal" Li Xuejian
In fact, in the show business circle that has been wrapped up in exposure and traffic for a long time.
There is another way to "low-key" the name.
Such as Lin Zixiang, such as Chen Daoming, such as Li Xuejian.
No desire for fame and fortune, the reality of an artist.
Who knew that Lin Zixiang once broke his right ear during a public performance and almost lost his hearing?
seldom.
Because he never took the initiative to talk about it.
There are also good reporters who ask Lin Zixiang about his feelings: I haven't seen Ye Qianwen appear with Ye Qianwen for a long time, whether the marriage has changed.
Lin Zixiang responded in this way: After more than twenty years of marriage, he has long been the same person.
Do not use the artist's personal affairs to attract the attention of the audience.
Life is life, work is work.
Ye Qianwen Lin Zixiang
The 74-year-old Lin Zixiang's indifference is like a heavy hammer, I don't know how many people in the entertainment circle pretend to sleep can be awakened.
He once shared his attitude towards low-key:
"I prefer to do and think more than to talk about... Many people who may not often appear and speak are artists."
Perhaps Hong Kong's pop culture is in addition to Cai Lan's dashing, Huang Xia's leisure, Ni Kuang's uninhibited.
There should also be one more - Lin Zixiang's low profile.
