It is often said that a teacher is a father for a lifetime. There are many good stories of masters with apprentices in the entertainment industry, and many idle words have been born, such as Jay Chou, who was promoted by Wu Zongxian, sang songs, and concerts generously publicized that this was a superstar in Japan, and later Wu Zongxian did not appear at Zhou Dong's wedding.
Zhou Xingchi and Li Xiuxian...
Those who are familiar with and like Star Ye movies should have secretly learned about his secret affair.
Li Xiuxian discovered that Zhou Xingchi made a movie after Zhou Xingchi became famous, Li Xiuxian still gave Zhou a very low salary, at the beginning there were many people digging Zhou outside, Zhou has not agreed, but at that time Zhou lacked money to move, Li gave too low a salary, and the film distributed to Zhou was not suitable for him, so Monday was to make money, and the second was to make a suitable film so parted ways.
So far, Li Xiuxian has been constantly interviewing, scolding Zhou Xingchi in front of the news media for being ungrateful and so on, etc., but Zhou has not said bad things about Li.
Gathering and dispersing, I personally think that it is not all the problem of Zhou Xingchi, it is true that Li Xiuxian has the grace to Zhou Xingchi, but in the same way, Li Xiuxian has also gained a lot of benefits at the same time.
Both sides are mutually beneficial. There is no I promoted you but I have not gained anything, the entertainment industry is a vanity fair, except for a very small number of people who really treat each other frankly, most of them are used by each other, equivalent exchange.
Since it is related to interests, it is difficult to say so grandiosely, when one day Zhou Xingchi wants to seek his own development and increase his income, but Li Xiuxian cannot be satisfied, and using morality as a weapon to kidnap the other party is the best way to kill. If it weren't for me then, how would you be, how would you be now. Without me then, how you were.
It's like you have served in a company for several years, loved by the boss, brought huge business achievements to the boss, the ability to grow to a certain extent, want to have greater development, at this time the company's platform resources have been unable to meet, but the salary given is still the same as the original, and there is a new world outside. Ambitious people don't choose to wait....
Malaysian singer Wu Qixian and Taiwanese golden song king Liu Wenzheng
Many people only know that after Wu Qixian became famous, he betrayed his mentor Liu Wenzheng, who became famous, and threw himself into EMI Records. Later, because of the copyright dispute of the three songs, he turned against his mentor Liu Wenzheng.
It turned out that Wu Qixian was so despicable that he was not only pirated, but also stole the soundtrack master tapes of three songs at Liu Wenzheng's Flying Eagle Records Production Company.
Fortunately, Liu Wenzheng was as talented as gold, and only pursued it for the crime of piracy, otherwise Wu Qixian would have eaten in prison as early as 1994.
****************************************
The following is Liu Wenzheng's account of an interview with Minsheng Bao in his early years.
On September 16, 1994, Liu Wenzheng stood up for an interview with Taiwan's Minsheng Bao, detailing the copyright dispute with his disciple Wu Qixian, who said that Wu Qixian had jumped to EMI after about making Flying Eagle Records, and he had also treated it with a good attitude.
However, 3 months ago, he found that the soundtrack master tape of "Have You Secretly Cried" and "Sad People Are More Sad" produced by Flying Eagle Records was stolen, and the mastering tape that Flying Eagle Records did not see appeared in Wu Qixian's "Love Song Retrospective" album, and later after being determined by experts, it was determined that the two songs in the "Love Song Retrospective" directly stole the masterband of Flying Eagle.
Another song, "The Afternoon The Sister Left", composed by Wu Qixian but owned by Feiying, also appeared in the "Love Song Retrospective Exhibition" without authorization, which was also suspected of violating the copyright decree.
Liu Wenzheng told reporters at that time: "Stealing the soundtrack is a criminal responsibility, if you resort to the law, Wu Qixian will go to jail, but I don't want to affect Wu Qixian's career, so I give the other party a step down, and then ask the other party to compensate in the form of copyright and the most harmonious method." I have never spoken about the 'theft of soundtracks', the outside world has always mistakenly thought that this is just a songwriting copyright dispute, I asked for 15 million Taiwan dollars (about 1.5 million ringgit) too much, this matter made many people misunderstand my behavior, but also caused me a lot of trouble, I don't want to carry the black pot, before deciding to tell the truth of the matter. ”
Liu Wenzheng asked himself that material desires do not have high requirements, friends are his greatest wealth, but experiencing the "Wu Qixian Incident" has given him a new view of human nature; from the beginning to the end, Liu Wenzheng did not make a half-evil remark to Wu Qixian, he said that he did not care about compensation, but to teach his disciples to have performing arts ethics and respect for wisdom property rights.
Wu Qixian released the album "Too Silly" after ending his relationship with Feiying, which became popular throughout the Chinese region. Although this very unpleasant thing happened that year, when Liu Wenzheng was mentioned, Wu Qixian was still very grateful to the other party, because Liu Wenzheng's inspiration changed Wu Qixian's fate and developed his future: "Liu Wen is my Bole."
Later, when he opened the concert, he specially selected more than 30 songs from more than 300 Liu Wenzheng songs to remember the teacher, although he was accused of consuming each other, he did not shy away.
It is said that he still keeps in touch with Liu Wenzheng through a friend in Singapore, and it is rumored that he wants to see his mentor for 20 million.
Whether it is true or not, it shows that the money loss incident did not diminish his gratitude, and he saw people's hearts for a long time and remembered the grace of the encounter in that year.
If Wu Qixian and Liu Wen have achieved the balance of interests and human feelings through relative compromise, then the following two can be described as representatives who have completely torn their faces.
Zheng Jiaying Dai Sicong After Dai Sicong's death, Zheng Jiaying visited her teacher's tomb. He realized that he had left that year, and he had not done anything wrong. But there is still helplessness about the harm caused. It is the media that continues to stir up trouble.
But everyone's focus is on a lifetime contract. It is difficult for those who do not know, but this contract is still very incomprehensible and full of irrationality.
In 2006, it was revealed that Zheng Jiaying signed a "lifelong contract" with the singing teacher Dai Sicong in 1993, and the two masters and apprentices turned against each other because of the problem of commissioning. In 10 years, Dai Sicong died of a heart attack, when Zheng Jiaying said to the outside world that there was only "kindness" and no "hatred" for the teacher. Having said that, this feud of more than two decades has not been resolved at all.
A month ago, Zheng Jiaying met Master Dai in Causeway Bay, but he actually greeted him and turned his head and left.
Mentioning Zheng Jiaying's ruthlessness and rudeness, Master Dai's mother did not want to mention it again; Dai Sicong's daughter Dai Xinwei did not spit unhappy, and also opened her mouth to seek justice for her deceased father.
"Before the so-called 'lifetime contract' thing was exposed, dad bumped into Jiaying at Lin Wenlong's wedding, but he looked at his father with fierceness and hatred, how can a benefactor be like this, daddy is so comfortable, first remind Yu Zhong that there is actually a contract! All I tell is the truth, he can continue to speak big, I am at ease! ”
Lieutenant Dai Xin zhen zhen zhen has a word.
The master refused to forgive
Dai Sicong died many years ago, and the "lifetime contract" dispute with Zheng Jiaying was also buried in the loess. When her mentor passed away, Zheng Jiaying, who did not attend the funeral at the time, said to the outside world that she only had "kindness" and no "hatred" towards her teacher.
But a month ago, someone witnessed Zheng Jiaying meet Dai Shimu in a restaurant in Times Square, Causeway Bay, when he not only did not even say hello, but also turned around in a hurry, and afterwards Dai Shimu once told his friends: "I will never forgive him (Zheng Jiaying) in this life!" ”
Since there is no enmity and no revenge, Zheng Jiaying is so rude to the master and mother! In this regard, Dai Sicong's daughter Dai Xin responded sarcastically: "My mother has cataracts, and she may not be able to see him!" But I want to talk to you, you need to be shocked! ”
Dai Xinwei pointed out that his mother was old and did not want to respond to the matter about this person (Zheng Jiaying), but only wanted to forget the unhappiness and live happily. However, Lieutenant Dai Xin still couldn't bear to open the cannon and rehabilitate his father.
"In fact, the reason why there is a 'lifetime contract' is that something broke out, and The father of The Lin Wenlong saw Zheng Jiaying at the wedding, when he was black-mouthed and black-faced, and he defied his mouth and smacked his mouth on his father, and he could explain it to a benefactor? Kiss the person that day, say Hello? Daddy is so comfortable, I think that since you have a smacking attitude, remind you that you have a contract! If you really chase after the money, chase it in the morning! But as soon as you are reminded that you have a contract, you will react to the sun, and there are many actions! ”
Dai Xinwei said that Zheng Jiaying had only sent the "unlucky" contract and a pair of socks to her father for many years.
At The funeral of Dai Sicong, students Andy Lau and Chen Xiaodong supported Master Dai's mother.
When Zheng Jiaying debuted, he was in love with Dai Sicong, and his family environment was not good, and he was exempted from tuition by the teacher.
It is known that among Dai Sicong's many disciples, the only ones who can truly "match father and son" are Chen Xiaodong and Zheng Jiaying; unfortunately, both of them have broken out contract disputes with him. At that time, Zheng Jiaying was grateful to the teacher for teaching singing for free, wrapping food and taking care of it for three years, and signed a contract for a world of commissioning, which resulted in a later contract dispute, and it was a knot that Dai could not untie until his death.
"The teacher is so sad! What a disappointment! You most mind the words of the people to say 'music vampires', the worst mood, Dr. Zhong wants to see the doctor, in recent years, you have written a manuscript every day, hoping to publish a memoir, talk about Fan You and many students, of course, Zhong has to talk about Fan You and Zheng Jiaying. This journal has obtained some manuscripts, entitled "The Past Is Worth Remembering", which talks about the anecdotes of Lin Feng, Chen Xiaodong and others learning to sing.
In 2004, Lin Wenlong Guo Keying held a wedding at the Intercontinental Hotel, and according to Dai Xinwei, Jia Ying had been disrespectful to his father in public on this occasion, which made Dai Sicong very uncomfortable.
22 years of feud
Singing teacher Dai Sicong, because of a "lifetime contract" and his beloved disciple Zheng Jiaying got a counter-sun face, has not been in contact since then.
In 1992, Zheng Jiaying, who was only 23 years old, signed as a singer to Dai Sicong's "Xinghui Entertainment" for a 5-year contract.
In 1993, Dai Sicong signed a "lifetime contract" with Zheng Jiaying, as long as he worked in the entertainment industry for a living, his income would be 10%. Can this contract be understood as a "claim" for free teaching in that year?
In 1997, Zheng Jiaying did not renew his contract with PolyGram, and Dai Sicong arranged to sign a contract with Taiwan's "Golden Point Record Company", and then sold it to "Golden Point" for 300,000 yuan together with his manager contract.
In 2000, Zheng Jiaying filmed the Taiwan drama "Absolute Double Pride" and began to be known, organically returned to Hong Kong for development, and performed the non-existent dramas "Ambition of Fire II" and "Emerald Love Song" with a part-time performance.
In March 2006, he took on the viewing ideal of "Lovers Under the Curtain", and at the same time, it was revealed that Dai Sicong used a lawyer letter to pursue Zheng Jiaying's performance of the "lifelong contract" signed 13 years ago, the incident caused a storm in the city, and a week later, Dai Sicong issued a statement saying that he would not pursue it anymore.
In July 10, Dai Sicong was critically ill, hoping to see Zheng Jiaying to resolve the enmity, but he refused, his father ended with hatred, Dai Yunhui issued a statement prohibiting Zheng Jiaying from attending the funeral, and the next day, the younger sister Dai Xinwei said that it was only the personal wishes of her sister, and she and Master Dai welcomed Jiaying to attend the funeral.
In March 2011, Zheng Jiaying, who did not attend the funeral, was found to have been worshipping at the shrine where Dai Sicong's ashes were placed, and he cried for an hour.
No contact for eight years
Dai Sicong died, and Master Dai's mother was hit hard, relying on her two daughters to constantly comfort her to get through the low tide.
"I've asked my mother before, what would happen if I had the chance to meet someone I didn't like? Mom said it would depend on the situation, and I asked what if this person came over and said hello? Mom said she would nod her head and wouldn't walk away so childish! ”
From the time of the master's apprentice's rebellion to the death of his mentor, Zheng Jiaying had no contact with the Dai family in the past eight years.
"I dare to say that when Mom and Dad go out on the street and do anything, they can be worthy of their conscience, and when they see anyone, at least they will not turn around and leave, because they are not sorry for anyone!" Lieutenant Daisin said. The implication is that Zheng Jiaying was once sorry for Teacher Dai Sicong, and she was too weak to recognize each other.
Treated rudely, Lieutenant Dai Xin instead comforted Mommy: "You are good to people, the outside world does not know that it does not have much to do with it, just be ashamed!" ”
Dai Yunhui's sisters have all quit the entertainment industry, and Dai Xinwei has inherited her father's business, and she has obtained a second-level piano diploma and taught singing as an apprentice.
"Lovers Under the Curtain" has brought a turnaround to Zheng Jiaying's career, and after playing with Zhou Liqi's five-year love affair with the same drama, goodbye is not a friend.
Dai Sicong peach and plum are all over the world, and many celebrities in the entertainment industry are his students, including Nicholas Tse and Lin Feng, who are still active in the music world and other fields.
When her husband passed away, Master Dai's mother was greatly shocked, and the delicate daughter Dai Xin wei regularly waited to accompany Her mother to the "Good Fate" to worship Lao Dou.
When signing a "lifetime contract" that year, Zheng Jiaying once said that she was forced to sign a contract. Lieutenant Dai Xin was even more angry. "He said his father forced him to sign a contract, how could an adult force him? With a gun? You've called the police! With a knife? You've called the police! All I said was the truth, and I didn't do anything wrong, and I wasn't afraid to confront him! He can continue to talk big, and I can live with peace of mind! "Lieutenant Daisin put the facts in a big way,
Zheng Jiaying did not recognize anyone on the contrary, and the descendants of the Dai family launched a memoir for Dai Sicong, and deliberately pulled out all the parts about him.
"In fact, Dad's memoirs are written most by Zheng Jiaying, but he is no longer there, we don't want to complicate the whole thing, arouse these unhappy things to stimulate mom, so we decided to smoke them all and only publish happy things!" You asked me if I wanted to tell the whole Hong Kong people the truth, I did, but how to explain it one by one..."
Zheng Jiaying, who is accustomed to the habit, even his cousin Wang Xianyong also became a fourth, a photographer and an assistant.
Her career exploded, and Zheng Jiaying became estranged from Le Yiling, who used to be regarded as "Bole".
Zheng Jiaying took the position in the interior with "Step by Step", and has filmed five dramas in the past two years, but unfortunately the ratings are average, and no one has come to relive it.
Master Dai is still working hard to prepare a commemorative concert for Dai Sicong, hoping to fulfill the teacher's last wish.
Happiness is more important than having money
The photos published in Dai Sicong's memoirs are all records of the happy events of the past.
In 2006, the "lifetime contract" dispute broke out, Zheng Jiaying is still a victim of bad luck, hoping to win the sympathy of the outside world, to this day, he is a wireless first-line student, earning half a billion yuan a year in the mainland.
Zheng Jiaying's income showed a geometric jump, is the "lifetime contract" still in effect? Lieutenant Dai Xin looked a little concerned. "Didn't think about this! There's no one who doesn't like money, but I'd rather be a little happier! If he really makes that much money, I congratulate him! Hopefully he can do more good deeds! With such luck, do something to give back to the society! There is still a sour taste between the words.
A mouth is long Dai Xinwei's body, anyway, what she is willing to say is her business. It's just a pity that Zheng Jiaying didn't reply too much to this.
The contract is still difficult but the law can be overturned
Half a century has passed since the contract of that year.
The lifetime commission contract for that year was signed by Zheng Jiaying, Dai Sicong and Master Dai.
According to Lawyer Wu Jiaxian, the terms of the contract need to specify that one of the parties has passed away, and the heirs can still receive relevant benefits. Otherwise, there will be an opportunity for the contract to be contested, depending on the content of the contract, which may be decided by the court, and the current lifetime contract may not be valid, and in order to protect the interests of the artist, the court may overturn it in the face of unreasonable terms.
Guo Degang Cao Yunjin
Guo Degang, a teacher who has gained fame and fortune, has two well-known disciples, one is XiaoYue Yue, Yue Yunpeng, who later became popular, and the other is Cao Yunjin.
Cao Yunjin, once known as "the most like Guo Degang's apprentice" and "the most talented apprentice", Guo Degang personally named "Little Prince of Xiangsheng". With his talent, he appeared on the stage of CCTV Spring Festival Gala for three consecutive times in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Such seniority can also be regarded as the shoulder handle of the cross-talk industry, and the future is bright.
Cross-talk actor Cao Yunjin was originally a disciple of Guo Degang, and in 2010 the two fell out, please continue to look down.
Six years later, Guo Degang announced the cleaning of the Deyun Society's family tree, emphasizing: "The so-called cleaning of the portal is to give an account to the good people", and Cao Yunjin also sent a counterattack.
Cao Yunjin in 2001 to Guo Degang as a teacher, and began to learn to perform cross-talk, in the past he revealed that life is bitter, from one basement to another basement, but in early 2010 Deyun Society performance, Cao Yunjin suddenly did not come on stage, causing the outside world to question the master-apprentice Guan Qisheng change, at the end of the same year, Cao Yunjin first admitted to leaving the Deyun Society, pointing out that the company came up with a new contract to ask for renewal, "I think some of the provisions are inappropriate, I did not sign." ”
Unlike Zheng Jiaying, who foolishly signed a deed of sale with her mentor in her 20s, Cao Yunjin realized that things were not good, so she did not accept the new contract. He has always kept a clear head, faced with interests, and adhered to his principles and bottom line.
In September 2016, Weibo's hot search was brushed to paralysis, and Cao Yunjin yang sprinkled a six-thousand-word article, counting the various non-existences of Master Guo Degang, as well as his own heartache and grievances.
He said: "You are really interesting, never dare to name names, always insinuate, just because you no longer make money for you, you forced us away, and now you have planted bribes to frame, impose some false accusations on us, kill us all, and put us to death!" ”
The article details Guo Degang's "Seven Deadly Sins": making money in the name of worshiping a teacher;
Ministry of Preaching and Receiving "Varies from Person to Person";
Prevent the apprentice's personal development;
Deduct remuneration for filming without giving money;
Scolding the predecessors, scolding the disciples, cursing the deceased;
Deceive the world and steal the name, and have different hearts;
Ruthless and unrighteous, not thinking about master-apprentice love, and so on.
The article said, "I know your unsightly past best", "Paper can never wrap the fire", and finally broke: "People grow up a long way, and they really don't have to see each other again." ”
On September 5, another person involved, He Yunwei, supported Cao Yunjin through Weibo, saying that what Cao Yunjin said was true and justified.
Guo Degang's agent did not respond to the matter. At that time, this news also became the first time that a master and apprentice in the Chinese cross-talk circle publicly accused each other of insults. It is interesting, but except for the insiders, the rest of the industry is silent.
