In the morning, mint brushed the "Little Turtle" sung by Zhang Zhenyuan of the TNT era youth group, and the clear voice of the teenager brought mint back to the mood of chasing the drama that year.
A "Smile Pasta", "He Qun" is handsome and gentle, and everyone begins to fantasize that they can also have such a relationship with their idols. Outside the play, Zhang Dongliang conquered everyone with his smile and was known as the "Smiling Prince".
But obviously "Smile Pasta" was so hot, why did we not seem to see the news of Zhang Dongliang in all these years?
Even the most recent time I heard from him was that he sang "Little Turtle" in a shopping mall, but the whole person was a lot darker.
When he interacted with the audience, no one sang along.
From a night of popularity to the disappearance of the voice, what happened behind Zhang Dongliang?
In fact, Zhang Dongliang debuted as a singer in the early days.
At the age of 21, Zhang Dongliang happened to see the news of the Astro rookie competition. Because he liked to sing since he was a child, he had the mentality of trying it out, sent his tapes to the TV station, and soon he received an invitation to participate.
This attempt was the beginning of his acting career.
In the course of the competition, with the mentality of often going on stage from childhood to adulthood and a stable typhoon, as well as the appearance and warm voice of Junxiu, Zhang Dongliang soon had a high popularity, and in the final, he won the championship with a song "Dusk".
In the second year after the end of the competition, Zhang Dongliang officially debuted and released his first album "First Choice", in which the song "When You Are Lonely, You Will Remember Who" although it was a cover, it warmed the hearts of many people because of different interpretations.
The song "Tears of the North Star" should also be the memory of many friends, right? Mint also copied the lyrics by hand, and now that I think about it, it is really the tears of the times.
Singing and acting well, in 2005, Zhang Dongliang had a good opportunity: to star in a TV series with Wang Xinling, the "Sweetheart Sect Leader".
Wang Xinling was also too hot that year, "Cinderella's Tears", "When", "Love You" and other songs downloaded soared, there is a title called "New Boy Killer", before "Smile Best", she played the "Wedding Dress of Heaven" became a phenomenon and idol drama, becoming the ratings drama champion in the same period of the year.
Compared with Wang Xinling's hot hand, Zhang Dongliang could only be regarded as a little famous at that time, so it was a great opportunity for Zhang Dongliang to star in a TV series with Wang Xinling.
He Qun in the play actually has a high degree of fit with Zhang Dongliang, so there is also a wonderful interpretation of Zhang Dongliang.
Sure enough, once the TV series "Smile Best" was broadcast, it directly pushed his career to the peak, and it is not too much to say that it was an overnight hit.
However, the popularity also brought sadness, according to Zhang Dongliang, in order to practice He Qun's laughter, he had to practice until his muscles were stiff. And after the play, because the "Smile Prince" was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the company required him to keep smiling at all times, at least 66 times a day.
Smiling isn't hard, but when smiling becomes a task, smiling seems less sincere.
Coupled with the commercial performances and activities after the explosion, as well as the unsatisfactory data after the broadcast of the new drama, it did not meet the expectations of the audience, and Zhang Dongliang gradually suffered from depression.
The Smiling Prince couldn't laugh anymore. After some struggle, Zhang Dongliang chose to bid farewell to the entertainment industry for a while and regain his love for music.
He went to the United States for further study and studied music theory. Returning a few years later, he returned to the entertainment industry again with music.
At the AIM Chinese Music Awards in 2016, he won 7 awards alone, which is a rare thing.
From being extremely popular to being rumored to be "selling and singing on the street", Zhang Dongliang's life is not as miserable as rumors.
On the contrary, Mint admired him very much, and it also took courage to choose to retire when he became popular. After regaining your confidence, you will set off, do what you want to do, follow your inner choices, and be happy.
