Pan Xiaofeng is a very good singer in the mainland, he is good at studying the culture of the Western Regions, especially the essence of the Daolang song and dance in Xinjiang, for which he once called himself "Daolang of the Western Regions".
He has been debuting for 27 years, and he has represented many works, mainly including "What are you waiting for", "Shadow", "Can't Forget You", "In That Distant Place", "Beautiful Grassland My Home", "The Rising sun of the grassland", "Nostalgia", "Farewell", "My Lovely Her" and other works.
Unfortunately, with the help of the name of "Dao Lang", he was controversial after an overnight hit and was ostracized by everyone.
From his rapid popularity to his step-by-step expulsion from the music scene, how did he get to this point? How did he live after fading out of the public eye?
Pan Xiaofeng, who owns 1.86 meters, is a typical Shandong Hanzi, who was born in 1972 in Meihekou City, Jilin Province, to ordinary parents.
Growing up, the environment and people he came into contact with had nothing to do with music, and he didn't have the idea of engaging in music at that time.
After graduating from middle school, Pan Xiaofeng obeyed his father's arrangement and chose to join the army and became a glorious soldier.
During his time in the army, Pan Xiaofeng came into contact with the clarinet instrument, and he was full of interest in this instrument, and he was instantly opened to the door of the music world.
Since then, he has been painstakingly studying clarinet, from the beginning of the ignorance, to gradually be able to play a piece, he became more and more fond of music.
The leaders of the army saw that he particularly liked music and played the clarinet well, so they transferred him to the literary troupe as a clarinet player, and he also embarked on the road of music.
In the years of the development of the army, Pan Xiaofeng has been painstakingly practicing the basic knowledge of music theory, in addition to playing clarinets, he also began to study vocal knowledge.
He knew that in order to become a musician who was liked, it was not enough to know how to play an instrument, he had to know how to sing.
Through his own continuous exploration and humble consultation with the seniors of the troops, he slowly laid a solid foundation for music.
Later, after returning home from the army, Pan Xiaofeng chose to go south to Guangzhou to pursue his musical dreams.
When he came to Guangzhou alone, he carried his dream of being a singer and submitted resumes and interviews everywhere, hoping to get the favor of a record company.
In 1995, with his continuous efforts, he was favored by a record company in Guangzhou and signed to the company.
Since owning the company as a dependency, Pan Xiaofeng began to write songs with peace of mind, and in the second year after entering the company, he released his debut album "Chrysanthemum Yin".
With the help of the company, he won the guangdong new song list top ten gold songs, radio top ten gold songs and other honors with this album.
Pan Xiaofeng was particularly happy to see that his debut album had achieved such an achievement, but he did not expect that this album, which won him many awards, did not actually get much support from many people.
Because he is from the northeast and sings Mandarin songs, and he is good at the style of folk customs, it is difficult for local listeners in Guangdong to understand his songs and the meaning he wants to express.
So after he released his first record, the company did not see that the audience rate of his songs was not high, so it stopped praising him, allowing him to transform into a behind-the-scenes development, mainly responsible for making songs for other singers.
During his behind-the-scenes role, he also produced an advertising song for sun nan, a powerful singer we are familiar with.
I don't know if it was because he saw that Sun Nan, who was also a singer, developed particularly well, and he was not willing to give up his dream of becoming a singer, and he began to seek the opportunity to sing again.
He painstakingly formed a band called "Wing Band", praying that he could continue to develop in the music world through this band, but unfortunately, the band was difficult to continue to support because of its poor future, and could only announce its dissolution.
In 2002, Pan Xiaofeng, who had been suffering from no prospects for career development, met a resident singer named Mayira while relaxing at a nightclub.
Mayira works as a resident singer in this nightclub, and she is good at singing folk songs from her hometown of Xinjiang, but like Pan Xiaofeng, she does not have much popularity and popularity in the music world.
In addition to singing, Mayira is also good at dancing the Daolang dance of her hometown, and it is her graceful and colorful dance style that deeply attracts Pan Xiaofeng, so that Pan Xiaofeng can't help but launch a crazy pursuit of her.
Pan Xiaofeng, whose musical path is not smooth, is a small expert on the emotional road, and he quickly coaxes Mayira into his arms through his talent and rhetoric.
While he was struggling to find a way out of his development, he fell in love with Mayira, and he fell in love with Mayira, and when he was in love, he also followed Mayira back to her hometown of Xinjiang, which is very similar to the singer Daolang who later imitated the hype.
The famous singer Dao Lang's original name was Luo Lin, he was a year older than Pan Xiaofeng, a native of Neijiang, Sichuan, and he was like Pan Xiaofeng when he came to Xinjiang because of a Xinjiang girl, Zhu Lin.
As a result, after coming to Xinjiang, he was deeply attracted by the customs and customs of Xinjiang, not only fell in love with here, but also achieved his music career here, and successively wrote classic works such as "Love Song of the Great Desert", "Love Song of the Western Region", "Kashgar GarHu Yang" and so on.
In addition, he also started a family here with his beloved girl Zhu Lin, deeply rooted in this land.
In the year that Pan Xiaofeng came to Xinjiang, Daolang also just released his album "Western Love Songs", which contains 11 songs that we are familiar with, such as "Turpan's Grapes Are Ripe", "Kangding Love Songs", "Why Are Flowers So Red", etc.
Seeing that Daolang, who had a similar experience with him, could achieve a career here and write one song after another that was deeply loved by the public, Pan Xiaofeng also seemed to be suddenly awakened, and he also began to compose songs related to Xinjiang.
It's just that he didn't have the good luck of Daolang, and after he came to Megeti County in Xinjiang, the Xinjiang girl Mayela who was with him before, he suddenly said goodbye to him, as if he had disappeared, no matter how he looked for it, he couldn't find it.
However, it is worth saying that Pan Xiaofeng, who is emotionally frustrated, has ushered in an opportunity for development.
Soon after Mayira left his world, he wrote the song "Looking for Mayira" with grief and longing, and later wrote "What are you waiting for", "Shadow", "Can't Forget You" and other works.
It happened that Shi Lei, a producer in Beijing at that time, was ordered to go to Xinjiang to shoot a music scene of Daolang song and dance, and on the way he met Pan Xiaofeng, who was still struggling to find The Xinjiang girl Mayira, who was deeply touched by his infatuation, and after seeing the songs he wrote, he also particularly appreciated his talent.
So Shi Lei immediately decided to postpone the task of shooting music scenery films, and after consultation with Zhong Xiongbing, the boss of Guangdong Feiyue Record Company, decided to help Pan Xiaofeng produce a record first.
With their help, in 2004, Pan Xiaofeng's album "Looking for Mayira" was officially launched.
At that time, Pan Xiaofeng, who was looking for a beloved woman, did not think that these songs could catch fire, but he did not expect that this album had the support and recognition of the listeners, and sold 400,000 copies!
These love songs full of Daolang people's fanaticism and unrestrained feelings instantly made Pan Xiaofeng angry, and the stage name he gave himself at that time, "Western Daolang", also remained in people's hearts.
After a night of popularity, the company hit the iron while it was hot, and then launched a second album "Blame You" for him, which was even hotter than the previous album, and the final sales directly exceeded 600,000 copies!
After quickly becoming popular, Pan Xiaofeng, who attracted everyone's attention, transformed from a downcast wandering singer to a popular singer, and the limelight was once approaching and another Daolang Luolin who had been popular for a long time.
With super popularity and popularity, Pan Xiaofeng became a guest of honor that David TV wanted to invite, and even CCTV handed him an olive branch.
At the invitation of CCTV, Pan Xiaofeng appeared on the evening stage of CCTV's "Top Ten Newcomers" as "Western Daolang", and then successively participated in CCTV's "All-Star Conjecture" and other programs, developing particularly well, becoming the most optimistic newcomer in the music scene at that time.
Unfortunately, before he could enjoy the glory brought by his popularity, a piece of paper was already handed to him.
In October 2004, another Daolang Luolin sued Pan Xiaofeng and his Feiyue Record Company for infringing copyright and name rights, demanding that they stop the infringement, publicly apologize, and compensate for economic losses.
In this regard, Pan Xiaofeng and Feiyue Company did not recognize it, they believe that the word Daolang represents Daolang song and dance, Daolang culture, Daolang style, Daolang art, etc., and does not refer to anyone's exclusive name.
To this end, they began a tug-of-war for two years, and during this period, the Western Daolang still relied on the name of Daolang to make money everywhere.
He not only appeared in various large-scale events and evening parties, but also appeared on the stage of CCTV many times and earned a lot of money.
Until 2006, the court finally made a judgment on this copyright and reputation dispute, and finally ruled that Pan Xiaofeng of The Western Daolang was infringing, requiring him to bear all the litigation costs, and at the same time compensate Daolang Luolin for economic losses of 40,000 yuan, and prohibit the continued use of the name of Daolang.
At this point, the storm of "Pan Xiaofeng of the Western Dao Lang borrowing the name of Dao Lang Luolin" that was boiling over finally came to an end.
After this incident, Pan Xiaofeng, who defeated Chengye Daolang, seemed to be ostracized by everyone, his career plummeted, and his reputation was even worse than before.
Although many new works have been brought, the attention they can not be aroused is high, and he has faded out of the public's sight.
It is worth saying that because of the popularity and fall of the "pirate knife lang", he later attended an anti-piracy performance in Guangzhou, and even publicly stated: "What I hate most is piracy!" ”
Thinking of his previous lawsuit with Dao Lang, I really don't know if he is mocking himself or deliberately attracting the attention of the public.
Pan Xiaofeng, who is now 50 years old, has completely faded from the public's attention and has long disappeared in the music world.
It's 2017 since the last time he brought us a new song, "Single Dog."
It is worth saying that Daolang Luolin rarely appears in the public eye now, and some people say that the real Daolang is boycotted by musicians such as Na Ying and Gao Xiaosong, but in fact, it is not.
Compared with the forced disappearance of Daolang in the Western Regions, Daolang Luolin still does not want to be affected by this impetuous circle, and only wants to make music for the public.
And since 2020, Daolang Rollin has returned to the music scene after many years of silence, and has also brought albums such as "Playing Words", "As I Smell", "Everyone in the World" and so on.
Perhaps, in the near future, Daolang Rollin can turn red.
On the other hand, the pirated knife Lang Pan Xiaofeng, the collapse of word of mouth, has doomed him to be difficult to turn over again, you say?
