At the 1998 CCTV Spring Festival Gala, Fan Xiaoxuan took the stage and sang a "Health Song".
"Three laps left, three laps right, neck twisting butt twisting, let's do exercise together."
The fresh style, sweet image, and light and catchy melody make people be able to sing along with her once they listen to it.
However, after this song, what everyone sees is Fan Xiaoxuan, who has a completely different image from the little witch sister.
Her hair is getting shorter and shorter, from short hair to inch, smoky makeup, and the song style is very different from before.
Even, her most deviant thing is that, because she does not marry and does not have children, she declares that "the womb is a dispensable organ".
From the sweet little witch to the tattooed rock singer, Fan Xiaoxuan said that the previous she was not the real her.
Now, she has to be herself back.
01.
Fan Xiaoxuan was born in Taipei in 1977, and her grandparents are from Hubei.
At the time of birth, Fan's mother was only 17 years old and had not yet reached adulthood, and her father was 19 years old and had just come of age.
Such a pair of young parents, for this new little life, there is no psychological preparation.
I don't know how to plan my life, I am busy at home every day, and I don't know how to face the pressure of raising children.
Two people often quarrel, quarrel, the contradiction accumulates deeper and deeper, and the relationship becomes worse and worse.
By 1979, when Fan Xiaoxuan was two years old, her parents finally divorced.
Her mother took her back to her mother's house and lived with her grandmother.
Three generations of grandchildren depend on each other, and Fan Xiaoxuan spends most of her time with her grandmother.
Because mom is a resident singer in a bar, she has to rely on her singing to support the three of them.
This kind of work is black and white upside down, often Fan Xiaoxuan is asleep, and her mother has not returned.
During the day, my mother had to go to work again.
Sometimes grandma went out to buy vegetables, so she put Fan Xiaoxuan alone at home, worried that she would run around randomly, lose her way or be in danger.
Grandma always stressed that don't move, just sit obediently and wait for her to come back.
Fan Xiaoxuan was also extra obedient, she was alone at home, she really did not move, sitting until her grandmother came home with a vegetable basket, she dared to get off the stool, run and jump.
Fan Xiaoxuan in her childhood, the happiest time, was when her mother took her to sing with her after work.
Having her mother's good genes and singing with her mother since she was a child has cultivated Fan Xiaoxuan's strong interest in music.
When she was three years old, her mother let Fan Xiaoxuan start learning piano, and when she was 7 years old, she signed up to learn the flute.
Fan Xiaoxuan had learned a lot.
Well-behaved, cute and cute, relatives and friends or neighbors, someone married, Fan Xiaoxuan was invited by them to be a little flower child.
In this way, Fan Xiaoxuan grew to 14 years old, and her fate finally took a turn for the better.
02.
In 1991, some scouts found Fan Xiaoxuan and felt that she was very suitable for being a star.
So I arranged for her to shoot an advertisement for chewing gum to see how the market reacted.
Sure enough, the advertisement was broadcast, and the sweet smile of the girl next door, Fan Xiaoxuan, was on fire.
Since then, 14-year-old Fan Xiaoxuan can also make money, she has filmed some advertisements, or starred in the MV of songs.
In 1993, Li Yaming, known as Taiwan's "godfather of newcomers", released his new album, in which the song "Relax" MV, with Fan Xiaoxuan as the heroine.
The song was launched, and Fan Xiaoxuan's sweet and lovely image left a deep impression on the public.
While going to school and working, Fan Xiaoxuan also continued to learn about music and tried to write her own songs.
At the age of 17, Fan Xiaoxuan took over the film "Very Detective" under the company's arrangement, and cooperated with jacky Cheung, the god of song.
Debuting on the big screen, this role also made Fan Xiaoxuan shortlisted for the Golden Statue Best Newcomer nomination.
In 1995, Fan Xiaoxuan was 18 years old, and the company created her first album "RAIN" based on her unique voice.
This also allowed Fan Xiaoxuan to win the Most Popular Female Newcomer Award in Taiwan that year.
Although many people still can't remember her name and it's easy to forget her appearance, they remember the girl next door who walked in the rain in a yellow raincoat.
For the packaging of artists, the company has also been exploring.
The first album was released, Fan Xiaoxuan's sweet appearance, milky singing voice, the company decided to change her image for her, in the costume of a little witch to continue singing.
I didn't expect this change to really work, sweet voice, cover of classic plays "Doraemon", "Cherry Pills" and other songs, very popular.
The company saw that it was the right direction, continued to exert its strength, and tailored the songs "Bath Song" and "Health Song" for her.
Since then, Fan Xiaoxuan has had the reputation of "Queen of Nursery Rhymes".
The company took advantage of the situation to record the songs she sang into the album "Little Witch Magic Book" launched, and for a time Fan Xiaoxuan became the most popular little witch sister in the children's group.
Many parents take their children to the door of the brokerage company to see her for themselves.
At this time, the company thought of a plan, in order to better meet the preferences of children, they let Fan Xiaoxuan go to school every day and take the children to do exercises together.
So Fan Xiaoxuan changed her costumes every day, rushed to different venues, did repetitive actions, and sang repeated songs.
In less than half a year, the company launched the second series of little witches, which promoted new songs, did activities, and held concerts, and Fan Xiaoxuan became a busy person who did not have time to sleep.
In 1998, Fan Xiaoxuan and Xiaodong sang "Health Song" on the Spring Festival Gala stage.
This is Fan Xiaoxuan's first time on the Spring Festival Gala, when the network is not developed enough, the Spring Festival Gala can be said to be the biggest star-making stage.
After Fan Xiaoxuan sang this song, many viewers in the mainland knew about this eccentric female singer.
This year, Fan Xiaoxuan was 20 years old, and this "Health Song" also allowed her to open up the mainland market.
It wasn't long before everyone found out that she only had these few children's songs.
Appearing again, Fan Xiaoxuan's image has changed greatly, and she is not the little witch familiar to the public at all.
03.
Growing up to 20 years old, Fan Xiaoxuan has always been a well-behaved and obedient image, and even she laughs at herself, like a marionette.
When I was a child, my grandmother and my mother said whatever they wanted, and when I grew up, the company said it would do whatever it wanted.
Although these children's songs are very popular, she is actually very resistant inside.
The little witch's style is enough to do it once, and the more times it is boring.
However, in order to firmly grasp the children's market, the company tirelessly asked her to dress up as a child like, do exaggerated actions, and mingle with children.
Fan Xiaoxuan claimed that during that time, she did not have time to sleep every day when she was tired, but she did not dare to show this tiredness and did not dare to let the children see their fatigue.
After the Spring Festival Gala, Fan Xiaoxuan proposed to the company that she wanted to gradually change her image and did not want to be a little witch sister all the time.
The company firmly disagrees that once the image of the artist is fixed, the company does not want to take the risk to change easily.
After all, there is already a fixed audience group, with a fixed fan.
Successful image transformation is a great joy for everyone, and if the transformation fails, not only will it not absorb new fans, but it will lose its existing audience.
But Fan Xiaoxuan made it clear to the company that she was very miserable and had no way to continue this kind of performance.
The company had no choice but to compromise.
In May 1998, Fan Xiaoxuan released her first album "DARLING", which tried to transform.
The album was released and was soon taught a lesson on the market.
In this album, Fan Xiaoxuan cut her hair short, became an inch, wore a T-shirt and jeans, and shed the image of a tomboy.
Everyone was already familiar with her fresh, sweet and cute image, but it suddenly changed and could not be accepted for a while.
The company uses "failure" to describe this transformation, but Fan Xiaoxuan does not think so, she said that the sweet image before, not the real her, just everyone likes Fan Xiaoxuan.
And the new album is cold, Fan Xiaoxuan also realized that what the public likes is only the one packaged by the company, and no one likes the real her.
Later, Fan Xiaoxuan began to sing rock and roll.
Her hair was getting shorter and shorter, she was tattooed with tattoos, studs, lip studs, nose rings, and makeup so thick that she couldn't recognize it.
In short, everything on her body can be changed, she is tossing and turning, living off the image of a little sister.
At this time, countless parents found the company and denounced her bad image, which became a negative teaching material.
Say she'll bring bad kids.
The company asked her to continue her previous style and change back to the kind little witch sister.
Fan Xiaoxuan did not compromise, officially terminated the contract with the company, and set up his own studio.
What the public does not know is that at this time, her depression is very serious.
04.
Fan Xiaoxuan once admitted in an interview that she had been depressed for more than 20 years and had been playing the role of a well-behaved girl that her mother liked and a little girl that the audience liked.
Such a solidified image made her very uncomfortable, and she wanted to try different styles and different lives.
However, no one around supported this change, so they were entangled and contradictory, and the depression became more and more serious.
He lost more than 20 pounds a month and was once born lightly.
Fortunately, at this time, a man entered her world.
His name is Zhou Junwei and he is a fan of Fan Xiaoxuan.
This is an angel-like boyfriend who quit his job to stay with Fan Xiaoxuan and take care of her life.
Worried that she can't think of it, the boyfriend hides all the sharp objects in the house;
Knowing that her hands and feet are cold in winter, the boyfriend uses the hair dryer quilt to blow hot every day in advance, and then lets her lie in;
Depressed, not wanting to go out and not wanting to meet people, not wanting to have any contact with the outside world, the boyfriend began to delve into psychology and act as her psychologist.
Under the meticulous care and companionship of Zhou Junwei, Fan Xiaoxuan gradually came out of the haze of depression.
It is a pity that the boyfriend has a sincere heart and does not cover the cold Fan Xiaoxuan.
Just when the people around her thought that her condition was getting better and starting a new life, Fan Xiaoxuan broke up with Zhou Junwei on the grounds that he was too good.
Fan Xiaoxuan said that Zhou Junwei was too good to be repaid, so good that she could not repay it, she would feel guilty and blame herself, only to break up and let him pursue a relaxed new life.
Later, Fan Xiaoxuan and allen, the lead singer of the band he formed, were together.
Friends around S are very puzzled, this person is poor and sloppy, why would he be with such a person?
Also with this person, because he is unmarried, Fan Xiaoxuan also agrees with this concept, and even believes that "the womb is a dispensable organ".
Carry out non-marriage to the end.
Because Fan Xiaoxuan believes that in her life plan, she has never got married and had children, which has never been her life goal.
As for whether the removal of the uterus is true, there are only rumors, and Fan Xiaoxuan himself has not personally admitted it.
Some people say that Fan Xiaoxuan has lived with her grandmother and mother since she was a child, and she is too deeply influenced by her family and has no good expectations for marriage, so that she makes extreme moves.
Even, for a while, Fan Xiaoxuan also spread same-sex rumors.
05.
In 2006, Fan Xiaoxuan was introduced by Li Daqi and met Zhou Xun.
The two men are equally handsome and eccentric, and both are talented. Zhou Xun has publicly stated that he likes Fan Xiaoxuan's songs and is her fan.
The two have collaborated together on the movies "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and "Listener to the Wind", and there are many opponent scenes.
During the period, a reporter photographed the two traveling together.
However, in 2014, Zhou Xun married Gao Shengyuan, and this rumor was not self-defeating.
Although Fan Xiaoxuan's later image changed and her career was frustrated, for people who really loved her, seeing her out of depression, there was only blessing.
