On the spring evening just past, Zhang Shaohan and Li Ronghao sang on the same stage, allowing everyone to witness what is "big eyes and small eyes".
Some netizens joked: "Is this deliberate?" A famous little eye, a famous eye that is so big that it is exaggerated. ”
But after the ridicule, everyone still can't help but deeply admire this musical talent who can't be more provincial-looking, doesn't study for music, and even doesn't want to die.
His debut album was nominated for five nominations at the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards, and he was the first person to win the "Best Newcomer Award" in the mainland.
He was highly appreciated by Queen Faye Wong and was the first mainland singer to appear at both the Taipei Arena and Hung Hom in Hong Kong.
Some people say: Listening to Li Ronghao's songs, there will be a real pain, because his songs always carry a little self-deprecation, a little joke, and a little bit of hidden stubbornness.
From his singing, we see the traces of his growth against the wind, the tenacity to never admit defeat after suffering many hardships, which deeply inspires us.

Give up your studies and become obsessed with music
Li Ronghao is not a musical genius, at the age of 9, he happened to see beyond's concert, he began to be obsessed with the guitar, he bought cassettes, day and night alone to ponder the fingering and chords.
In the second year of junior high school, his parents really couldn't stand it, so they talked to Li Ronghao, but they didn't expect that this talk caused him to drop out of school directly during adolescence.
After dropping out of school, Li Ronghao held biscuits and mineral water all day and shut himself in his room to play guitar.
The enlightened parents did not resist strongly, but pushed the boat along the water, they took out their savings, inquired from all sides, and finally let Li Ronghao learn from the performer Professor Yin Fuyuan, starting from the bass guitar.
However, the bumpy road of music is not easy to walk.
In order to study, every day before dawn, Li Ronghao will get up, go to catch the train from Bengbu to Nanjing at 6 o'clock, and travel for 4 hours to get to the teacher's house.
Because of his young age, his legs were always hanging all the way, hanging numb, and after learning, he returned the same way. This rush is six or seven years.
In Nanjing, Li Ronghao improved his talents while relying on his own hard work, editing guitar tutorials, opening guitar teaching classes, and forming a band, earning the first money, at the same time, he also prepared carefully and agreed with his parents to prepare for the college entrance examination.
Before this, he had experienced two college entrance examinations, and his results were not ideal, this time, he felt confident.
However, on the eve of the college entrance examination, Li Ronghao received a call from a record company in Beijing, saying that he was invited to Beijing to discuss cooperation.
Academic? Music? Like a high wall blocking in front of Li Ronghao, he asked timidly: "Tomorrow I will take the college entrance examination, can I slow down?" The other person said "No!" ”
At this moment, Li Ronghao, who was at a loss, had the courage to consult with his family, his mother was anxious to stomp his feet, while his father was very democratic and let him decide for himself.
Unexpectedly, the next day, when he came to Beijing resolutely, the stranger only threw three sentences and sent him away.
"Are you Li Ronghao?"
"Did you play that guitar?"
"Very good, come on!"
Fate, as if there were a pair of ruthless hands, cut off Li Ronghao's road to the college entrance examination, and even more at the moment when he was desperate and wanted to seize a glimmer of opportunity, he slapped him hard.
However, Li Ronghao, who hit the south wall, "if you look at the music, you must always insist."

Through suffering, redemption in music
Gu Long said: Dreams are by no means dreams, and the difference between the two usually has a distance that is very worthy of people's deep thinking.
Li Ronghao gave up his studies for music, and almost survived in the near future.
Once, in order to catch up with the performance, Li Ronghao had a serious car accident, the whole person was swept into a large truck, broke three ribs, two of which penetrated the lungs, the right leg flipped 180 degrees along the joint, the pelvic bone exploded, and the blood and flesh were blurred.
He was rushed to the hospital, in order to rescue, the doctor did not have time to apply anesthesia, so he punched seven holes in his predecessor, inserted seven tubes, and the blood in his chest cavity instantly filled the bucket.
The flipped right leg, also without anesthesia, the four doctors worked together to forcibly pull him out and reset.
After the rescue of the front line of life and death, the endless major surgery has just begun, and the doctor "will come and insert a knife at any moment." The scalpel reached from the front chest to the back, as if the whole person had been split.
Li Ronghao really couldn't stand such torture, and for countless late nights he cried bitterly and begged the doctor: "Let me die." ”
The doctor hung the guitar above the bed, and when it hurt, he plucked the strings.
In more than a thousand difficult days, it was music that gave him the courage and strength to live.
A year later, he barely managed to get his life back, while his father died because he had no money to treat leukemia.
Nine deaths in a car accident, the separation of the life and death of the family, the family debt is high, and qi Qi pressed against Li Ronghao, who is only 19 years old.
Having experienced life and death, there were many, many words pressed on his chest, and Li Ronghao suddenly had the urge to write a song and spit it out.
At this time, there are still two and a half years before Li Ronghao became famous.

For music, crazy creation
After being discharged from the hospital, Li Ronghao came to Beijing alone with a guitar and 1800 yuan.
In order to pay off the debt, Li Ronghao created wildly during the day and opened a guitar cram class at night.
He was ridiculed by the music industry as the most "door-picking" musician, in order to save costs, a work he from lyrics, composition, to guitar, bass, to harmony writing, recording and mixing, and even post-mastering producer is himself. One man is simply a band.
Such madness and "door-cutting" tempered him fiercely, quickly turning him into a "creation machine", selling more than 200 songs in just a few years.
In fact, as early as 2005, Li Ronghao had signed a contract with Ai Hui Records in Japan and became an exclusive creative artist in Taiwan.
The reason why Li Ronghao has not been able to walk to the front of the stage for a long time is because of his appearance, just as the comments of netizens: In the era of the face of the masses, his small eyes that never wake up are undoubtedly the strength of the chain.
However, the real pearl will not be buried in the sand, it will only be polished by time to make it more dazzling.
Li Ronghao, who has no distractions and has made music to the extreme, has attracted a large number of nobles, and everyone has endorsed him.
His friend Chen Kun wrote in his book:
"I think he's a musical genius, I believe he was born a singer and his voice can really influence a generation."
Until 2013, Li Ronghao released his first album "Model", and finally stood in front of the stage from behind the scenes, and the subsequent "Composer" was recommended by Tianhou Faye Wong's Weibo, setting off a big wave in the music industry.

After becoming famous, I looked down on the past, only because I loved it deeply
After Li Ronghao won the "Best Newcomer Award" of Taiwan's golden song, Warner immediately secretly sent Qiu Bo and handed him an olive branch. Immediately, his second album was released, which quickly topped the album charts.
What makes him more famous is that since participating in the third season of "I Am a Singer", Li Ronghao's name once exploded hot search.
In 2019, Li Ronghao was disgraced and officially served as the resident tutor of "The Voice of China", six years ago, he was eliminated by "The Voice of China", and six years later, he became the youngest mentor here with his strength.
Li Ronghao was completely on fire.
However, the voice of disapproval has never left him, such as his new song, he has made an experiment with experimental style, but everyone has mixed praise.
Some people say that Li Ronghao's songs are pure and profound, straight to the heart; some people openly scolded: It is really perfunctory, Li Teacher Jiang Lang is exhausted; some people directly scare over: Li Ronghao, you have a Jay Chou face, and also pretend to be Chen Yixun's tone and Fang Datong's style...
In this regard, he responded calmly: If you don't like it, just listen to it.
Stubborn.
Li Ronghao knows that in this era of musical fast food filled with ten seconds of "Divine Comedy", many people will inevitably follow the trend; however, he has always practiced the musical concept of "creation is a sudden expression, a wonderful confession of life".
Even if he is not recognized, he must follow his heart and go all the way...
A reporter once asked: "Have you experienced such a difficult time with such great achievements?" ”
From God's point of view, this is undoubtedly a good opportunity for fans, but Li Ronghao was only silent for a few seconds, and then his eyes smiled into a silk thread: "No, I have always been quite smooth, and I don't know how I am so smooth!" "
Li Ronghao, a dreamer, never sells misery.
On the thorny music road, with a stubborn child who hit the south wall and could not turn back, even if he was scaly and wounded, he had to trek to the end.
Just like the song in "Model": There are many people, each of us, is a model in our own lives, wearing gorgeous costumes.
However, no matter where you are trapped in that window, you must not lose the dream in your heart, do not ignore the shouting thousands of miles away, do not stop waving your arms, do not forget that your eyes will shine...
Because, the sparrow also has tomorrow, perseverance can always win the face!
