Speaking of Na Ying, it is estimated that many friends have an impression of her, in addition to classic songs such as "conquest", "dream", "a laugh", etc., is the "Three Crowns" that prevail with "The Voice of China".
As a precedent for the opening of the Chinese mainland singers to sign with Hong Kong and Taiwan record companies in the 1990s, Na Ying is one of the few mainland singers who have successfully switched to the Hong Kong and Taiwan markets, and even without the fame and blessing brought by variety shows, she is also an important symbol in the Chinese pop music scene.
Looking back now, na Ying was desperate to sign a contract with Taiwan's Fumao Records, although it was because she encountered a bottleneck in the development of the mainland, but also because she had a big heart that dared to gamble.
It was precisely by resolutely taking a crucial step that that Yingcai overtook from the competition of female singers such as Yang Yuying and Mao Amin at that time, and became the first sister of the mainland music scene who could sing "Meet 1998" with Faye Wong and sing "Pearl of the Orient" with Andy Lau before the return of Hong Kong.
However, different time dimensions often bring different illusions.
Nowadays, fans are lamenting that Na Ying's step is "fast and accurate", allowing her to change from a singer and cover singer with the main theme of the party to a record singer who really has her own representative works, thus opening her own legendary road.
Twenty-eight years ago, however, on January 28, 1994, when Na Ying released her first album, For You, which she signed to Fu Mao Records, she received far more doubts than praise.
As the first mainland singer to eat crabs, Na Ying can be said to face one difficulty after another after coming to Taiwan. Not to mention the unfamiliar living environment, the rigorous recording system and commercial efficient operation of Hong Kong and Taiwan alone have made na Yingbei, who was accustomed to "rough" development in the past, difficult.
Another thing that needs to be changed is the individual style. As Mao Amin's classmate and sister, Na Ying studied under Gu Jianfen and was good at the main theme "Big Song". However, entering the Taiwanese pop music scene, what Na Ying needs to sing are some pure love songs with soft styles, from singing methods to artistic expressions must be adjusted.
Coupled with the fact that Na Ying was difficult to change his Northeast accent for a while, he encountered many problems in the process of recording the song. Friends revisit "For You ToDay", if you are careful enough, you can also hear a strong Northeast accent from many songs.
In this way, for various reasons, "For You to Think Twilight" came out, and did not get much praise.
Even if the title song of the same name, "For You To Think Twilight" and "Dreaming when Waking Up" created by the famous Taiwanese talented woman Zheng Huajuan, are good songs, the album's selection is called "Diverse", which is actually chaotic and the quality is uneven.
After the release of the album, mainland fans are happy to see na ying's transformation and change, but for the well-informed Hong Kong and Taiwan fans, Na Ying's works are obviously lacking in recognition compared with other Hong Kong and Taiwan female singers, and there is not much reason for them to buy. According to statistics, none of the ten songs included in "Twilight for You" were on the Taiwan music charts at that time, and the sales of the records were even more unsatisfactory.
In view of these difficulties, Na Ying estimated that she had already made preparations, and she did not believe that her trip to Taiwan would be smooth sailing, believing that this was a protracted war, and as long as she persisted, she would be able to achieve the final victory.
It is precisely because Na Ying has a good attitude that she will switch to EMI Records after the end of her contract with Fumao, and successively launch albums such as "Conquest", "Simply" and "Heartache Romance", and won the Best Chinese Female Singer Award at the 12th Taiwan Golden Melody Awards.
But even the best mentality is only a self-regulation ability, which cannot erase many of the negative emotions that "For You Think Twilight" brought to Na Ying at that time.
What makes Na Ying even more complicated is the success of another album and another female singer.
In 1993, when the news came out that Na Ying had signed a contract with Fumao Records, Beijing rock musicians Wang Di and Wang Xiaojing were dumbfounded. They originally prepared a pop music album for Na Ying, hoping to use this album to achieve a good start for the music label they established. Unexpectedly, Na Ying was desperate to sign a contract with Fu Mao, and they could only give this album tailored for Na Ying to a newcomer singer from Sichuan.
The newcomer singer who won the windfall is called Chen Lin, and this album that originally belonged to Na Ying is called "Your Tenderness I Never Understand".
Therefore, just when Na Ying was still recording "For You to Think Twilight" in Taiwan, the album "Your Tenderness I Never Understand" was released in the mainland. Chen Lin became popular with the album's title song of the same name, not only won the 16th "Top Ten Chinese Golden Song" Best Outstanding Newcomer Award, "Your Tenderness I Never Understand" sold more than 1.5 million copies, directly pushing Chen Lin from a newcomer to the ranks of mainland singers.
Don't say anything false, for the success of "Your Tenderness I Never Understand", and then look at the sales of the "Twilight for You" album, Na Ying's mood will definitely not be good.
Unfortunately, Chen Lin is an ill-fated Sichuan girl.
After becoming famous, she encountered far more trouble than Na Ying. Two consecutive failed marriages tired her physically and mentally, and on October 31, 2009, she jumped from a tall building and ended her life at the age of 39.
This article does not talk much about Chen Lin's emotional tragedy, but laments that artists are the same as ordinary people, and we will all be stupid about feelings.
After Chen Lin's death, at her memorial concert, Na Ying sang a song "I will never understand your tenderness." At this time, listening to this song that was almost sung by Na Ying sixteen years ago, everyone present sighed and sighed.

Any love song has life, but for the singers who give life to the song, their emotional story may be more speechless than the love song that sings popular.
This is music, music that we are obsessed with!
