"This stage is reserved for the singer who is prepared, she leaves me to go, I go to her to stay."
At the scene of the "Super Girl" Top 20 Breakout Competition in 2009, after Zeng Yike sang a song "Most Angelic", the professional judge Bao Xiaobai couldn't stand her "weak" sheep tone singing skills, and he bluntly said that he could keep her until now, and it was time for her to roll up and leave.
Although Bao Xiaobai was very tough, he could not stand other judges to support Zeng Yike, and Zeng Yike eventually advanced to the top 20 in the country.
Bao Xiaobai was very dissatisfied with this and refused to announce the promotion list, and the program team had to negotiate with him and ask him to read it out. Bao Xiaobai finally compromised, but after reading the list, he left the game in anger.
Because of the Zeng Yike incident, Gao Xiaosong and Bao Xiaobai also tore up for several years. Gao Xiaosong often squeezed Bao Xiaobai, saying in front of the media that he "did not understand gold, could not play musical instruments, and did not understand zeng Yike's genius."
Bao Xiaobai responded: "Someone wants to praise Zeng Yi, but I can't do it." But when asked about my Bao Xiaobai, I will not identify Zeng Yike. ”
Bao Xiaobai still adheres to his own point of view: "The competition is about strength, not about controversy." I only do what I should do, I want to be worthy of my profession, and I don't let the operation behind the stage change my mind. How other people choose, I have no right to ask, but when asked about my Bao Xiaobai, I will not recognize Zeng Yike. ”
From his debut to the present, Bao Xiaobai has always been a true temperament. It may also be family reasons that make him not care much about the eyes of others and is only willing to be himself.
In 1967, Bao Xiaobai and Bao Xiaosong were born in Taipei, and the two were twins. At the time of their birth, their brothers Bao Daming and Bao Weiming were already three years old. Because of the status of illegitimate children, the arrival of the four was not accepted by the mother.
Bao Xiaobai's mother had no academic qualifications or abilities. Before the birth of The four bao xiaobai brothers, she came out of the village and entered Taipei City to work odd jobs everywhere to earn a living, earning very little. Sometimes there is no room for even a place to stay, and when you encounter a cheap little hotel, you go to make up for a night.
Probably fate is to like to play such a "Cinderella", Bao Xiaobai's mother personally performed a Taiwan idol drama.
Once, while working odd jobs at a department store, Bao Xiaobai's mother met the owner of Nanyang Department Store, Taiwan's first department store, which was also the predecessor of Liba Department Store, which later became famous throughout the country.
You can imagine how prominent this boss's identity was at that time. Maybe it was too noble, and Bao Xiaobai's mother did not expect that he would look at himself. What's more, this boss has long been married, his wife is a well-known Kennaisuke, and he has several children.
Thinking like this, Bao Xiaobai's mother was even more reluctant to provoke this boss, but because of her beautiful appearance and a pair of watery eyes, this boss began to get lost in her miserable eyes and liked her more and more.
In order to capture her heart, the boss picks her up every day, often goes in and out of the place where she works, and buys her expensive jewelry that she usually does not dare to see. Knowing that she often had no fixed place to live, the boss directly bought a villa for her to live in.
Under the constant overtures of the boss, the psychological defense line of Bao Xiaobai's mother gradually collapsed. Although she knew that the boss was originally more careful, and had been married, with him, she was an immoral person. She still couldn't help but want to be with him. "Perhaps, this is also my chance to get out of poverty." Mother Bao thought about it seriously and accepted the boss.
Not long after, Bao Daming and Bao Weiming were born one after another. After having two sons, Mother Bao thought to herself: I have already given birth to a child for you, you can't watch our mother and son go hungry.
Unexpectedly, the boss became more and more cold to her. Because there is no marriage relationship, Bao's mother can hardly find him, and when she finds him, he just gives a little money to send it. Mother Bao was very cold and regretted that she should not have agreed to be with him at that time, and now it is too late to say anything.
With no money and two sons, Bao's mother's life is more difficult than ever. Because the child was too young and no one to take her, she had to carry the child to work. Many places saw that she had children, and they didn't want to use her, so she had to go to her house to ask for a job for her. But almost no one paid any attention to her.
At this time of suffering, Bao's mother actually became pregnant again. This time, she was determined not to repeat the same mistakes, and this child could not ask for it no matter what.
At that time, she did not know that she was pregnant with twins, she found various ways to beat the child, including taking Chinese medicine, pounding the stomach, etc., she tried again, the craziest time, she tried 12 methods, the child did not fall.
Mother Bao sat on the ground and cried, bluntly saying that her life was too bad and she didn't want this child at all.
It may be that the child is really related to her, or it may be that the heavens can't see Bao Xiaobai and they suffer, and in the end, Bao Xiaobai and Bao Xiaosong are still born. Even Bao Xiaobai himself had no choice but to say: Our life is too hard. But he also did not blame his mother, who at that time understood what Mother Bao had done.
Two sons came at once, making Bao's mother even more disgusted with life, she no longer expected the man, she did not allow the four children to call him: Daddy.
Because of these four children, Bao's mother's living burden is particularly large, and the boss does not care much about them, and Bao's mother really can't live, so she has to take the child back to the village.
Bao Weiming, Bao Xiaobai and Bao Xiaosong were the children born out of wedlock by Bao's mother, which at that time in Taiwan, it could be regarded as a family ugly. Villagers often chew their tongues behind their backs and scold Bao's mother for not being a serious person. No matter what the Bao family did in the village, everyone pointed fingers at them.
The children did not play with their four brothers, and pushed and beat them at every turn. Their life in the village is very difficult.
Later, Bao's mother really couldn't take the four brothers back to Taipei and worked in a leather shoe store, and the one-and-a-half-year-old Bao Xiaobai and Bao Xiaosong were very happy.
No need to be bullied by the villagers, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The shoe shop became a game town for two people, who crawled around the house and were not afraid of people.
One day, the sister of a male employee in the shoe store came to the store to play, and it was particularly happy to see the brothers crawling all over the ground.
She kept teasing her children to play until the shoe shop closed, so she didn't want to leave, and finally, she asked Bao's mother if she could take the child home for a while to relieve her parents.
Of course, Mother Bao is very happy to hear it, and it is better to relax a little. The male employee who is commensurate with Bao's mother as a dry sister and brother said to his sister: Bao's mother raises four children, and life is very difficult. When the younger sister heard it, she went back and thought about it and decided to adopt the Bao Xiaobai brothers.
This sister's family is in the village, the family already has 5 children, the whole family lives in a wooden plank tin house, plus two Bao Xiaobai, the family has 7 mouths to eat. This makes this even worse for the already unprepared family. The sister's father was also Bao Xiaobai's later grandfather, who was very grumpy, and when he knew the news, he was furious and resolutely opposed. Grandma liked these two children very much and must adopt them.
Grandma made up for the lack of maternal love between the two brothers, she was very fond of the two children, almost responsive, and the two little guys also loved Grandma very much, after growing up, the teacher arranged essays to write mothers, Bao Xiaobai They all wrote Grandma.
Usually, they are very willing to shield grandma from the wind and rain: "We often act as grandma's 'firefighters', and whenever we see that Grandpa is going to lose his temper, we will pull Grandma to the next door to hide." 」 ”
It wasn't until he grew up and slowly understood that Bao Xiaobai didn't know that he was adopted. This gives him the feeling of being sent under the fence, always doing things carefully,
"I grew up in an unrelated family, grew up with a ball-like identity, kicked around." Bao Xiaobai said bitterly in an interview.
Although Bao Xiaobai's father did not care much about the five of them, always prevaricating and not giving money, but sometimes he also wanted to meet, only then, Bao Xiaobai and the four brothers would take Bao Xiaobai and the four brothers to his father's department store.
Department store employees know that the four brothers are the illegitimate children of the boss, so everyone slaps them on the back, calls them young masters, and lets them take toys casually. Bao Xiaobai said that only then would he feel like a real young master.
But that's all father can do. It wasn't long before my father died of cancer. Probably as compensation, the house worth 200 million yuan was also really left to Bao's mother.
Just when the four brothers thought they could live in a big house, Bao's mother fell in love with gambling, and the death of the man completely took away her fighting spirit for life, she began to gamble day and night, and finally lost a lot of money without accident.
When Bao Xiaobai was in the first grade, Bao's mother couldn't stand it because she was always chased by other people's debts, so she sold the house worth 200 million yuan for 997,000.
At this time, they had no place to live, poverty and guilt, and soon after, Bao's mother died under the torture of advanced cancer.
Bao Xiaobai said: "My mother was suffering from cancer, but she was still enthusiastic about enlightening other cancer patients, she was about to die on the day, the second brother and Song rushed to the hospital first, and my mother had her last breath left, just to see me." As soon as he arrived at the hospital, his mother sighed and died.
Big Brother Bao Daming
After the death of Bao's mother, the burden of life was placed on Bao Daming and Bao Weiming, in order to support himself and his brother. Bao Daming and Bao Weiming could only drop out of school and go home, help people deliver morning papers, and work as waiters. At that time, it can be said that he was both a father and a mother.
At the age of 16, Bao Weiming was recruited into the entertainment industry by a record company, and soon released a single "Run, Run" that made Bao Weiming a hit, and his records were also very popular.
At that time, Bao Xiaobai and Bao Xiaosong were doing a lot of family foundry work, and also went to the performing arts company to do miscellaneous work. "Instead of doing miscellaneous work here, it is better to release records with me", in 1986, Bao Weiming simply pulled his brothers Bao Xiaosong and Bao Xiaobai, who had just graduated from junior high school, into the show business circle, and the two brothers formed Taiwan's earliest male idol group - Twins star debut.
In the first two years of entering the record company, Bao Xiaobai was also very difficult, senior artists would not promote them, and it was difficult to get on the stage. They had to circulate between small stages for two years, and in the third year they performed on the "Old Three Stages".
Bao Xiaosong said: "The performances in the township are all unpaid, only on TV, one can get 2350 yuan (NT$) car and horse fees, the rent is paid, there is very little left, in order to save money, almost every day is to eat fried greens, soy sauce bibimbap." ”
After having a position, Bao Xiaobai released his first album "Before The Tears", but he did not expect a fire overnight, when the streets and alleys were their songs.
Unfortunately, only three albums were released, Bao Xiaobai and Bao Xiaosong enlisted in the army, and when they returned two years later, the song world has become popular with the songs of the Little Tigers.
Bao Xiaobai is also helpless, the two do not want to give up, only 23 years old, they do not want to end their acting career.
Later, they moved to Singapore and launched a record in Singapore, but they didn't expect it to work well. When Bao Xiaobai received an invitation from a Singaporean producer to support the show, he fell in love with Taiwanese flight attendant Luo Meiyi, so he wondered whether to return to Taiwan or stay in Singapore.
Just at that time, their company held a banquet, Zhou Huajian also participated, Bao Xiaobai was very happy after seeing Zhou Huajian, the two people talked very happily, Zhou Huajian told Bao Xiaobai that he wanted to open a "ferryman" production company and wanted him to be able to return to Taiwan to help.
Bao Xiaobai was a little hesitant at that time, returning to Taiwan meant starting from scratch, but Taiwan was his own home, and his family was over there.
Finally, with the encouragement of his girlfriend, Bao Xiaobai returned to Taiwan with a nervous mood. It is really from scratch, After Bao Xiaobai returned, he started from Zhou Huajian's production assistant, except for selling himself, photocopying, buying box lunches, pouring tea, mixing miscellaneous, etc., doing everything.
Fortunately, when he was most bitter, his girlfriend was always by his side, giving him encouragement and comfort. Two years later, he officially proposed to his girlfriend, the two entered the auditorium, gave birth to a lovely daughter, probably with the miss of his grandmother, Bao Xiaobai has always felt that his grandmother is the most inclusive person in the world, so he named his daughter Inclusive.
After having a daughter, Bao Xiaobai, who has always been unsmiling, as long as he mentions his daughter, he always has endless words. Perhaps it is that he was fostered in someone else's home since he was a child, lacking the love of his parents, after Bao Xiaobai had a daughter, he wanted to give everything he had and give the best love to his daughter, and he was particularly fond of his daughter. In order to raise children, Bao Xiaobai did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to send his daughter to study abroad.
Inclusive and very obedient, she grew up smart and versatile. He also has a deep affection with his father Bao Xiaobai. Every time they get together, the father and daughter always have endless words. If the daughter tolerates any secrets, she will generously share them with Bao Xiaobai. Bao Xiaobai often laughed and said: "My wife is the CEO, my daughter is the boss, and I am an employee."
Then happiness is short-lived, Bao Xiaobai was born in a cancer family, his parents and foster grandparents are all dying of cancer, he is very worried that he will also get cancer one day, but he did not expect that his favorite daughter was found to have a rare disease, and the possibility of cure is not high.
After Bao Xiaobai knew the news, he felt that the sky was about to collapse, and he asked God with tears countless times: Why is it not me who is sick? During his daughter's illness, Bao Xiaobai gave up all his work and returned to Taipei from the mainland, taking his daughter to inquire about the hospital one by one. In order to let his daughter get better treatment, he did not hesitate to sell his property.
However, her daughter's condition has been repeated, and Bao Xiaobai has almost turned white overnight. In 2019, when he learned that he and his daughter's bone marrow matching was successful, he was very happy to request the hospital for transplant surgery, after the successful operation, Bao Xiaobai was relieved in his heart, he thought he had saved his daughter, but he did not expect that a year later, his daughter's condition deteriorated.
Bao Xiaobai's heart ached beyond belief, he wrote: "She has not offended anyone, why is it circulating pain day after day, endlessly?" "It's a father's heartache over the inability to do anything about his illness.
In December 2021, the 22-year-old Tolerance left this world forever, and Bao Xiaobai had almost no ability to think and could not deal with anything.
In the spiritual hall he carefully arranged for his daughter, in the sea of purple and white orchids and lilies that his daughter loved most, Bao Xiaobai hugged Bao Weiming and Bao Xiaosong and cried bitterly. Nothing compares to a person reaching middle age, and the white-haired man sends the black-haired man heartache.
Because of too much grief, all of Bao Xiaobai's work is currently suspended, although there are many invitations from the mainland, but Bao Xiaobai and Bao Xiaosong both hope to stay in Taiwan, perhaps so that they can get closer to their daughters.
Bao Xiaobai has spent his whole life chasing love, he can not care about everything, only bow his head to love, but it is also the love of his relatives that makes him hurt again and again. May he be able to become the musical talent who didn't care about anyone's eyes and only spoke for his heart.
