If anyone in the entertainment industry can be worthy of the four words of cutting thorns, then Zhou Chuanxiong must have a name.
Abandoned by his parents at the age of 16, he begged on the streets in order to survive.
At the age of 19, he participated in the singing competition and was successfully selected as one of the first candidate members of the Tigers.
But Zhou Chuanxiong, who did not want to be an idol of the boy band, gave up this opportunity.
When the little tigers were half red in the sky, he took the piano, took the stage name Xiao Gang, and stumbled and groped to become an obscure little singer in the cracks of the music world.
Later, Zhang Xinzhe, who was in the same company as Zhou Chuanxiong, served in the army. The company decided to hail him as the new Prince of Love Songs.
Before and after the official stand, it took only a few years for him to become the youngest well-known creator in Taiwan.
The good times were not long, Zhang Xinzhe returned at the end of the term, "Love is Like a Tide" came out stunningly, and after weighing the pros and cons, the company decided to re-praise Zhang Xinzhe as the prince of love songs. Xiao Gang, abandoned again.
In order to find a new way out, he began to slowly turn behind the scenes as a producer. At that time, there was a saying that as long as the song that Zhou Chuanxiong participated in producing, it would definitely become popular. This time, Zhou Chuanxiong became famous as a producer.
Subsequently, still eager for the stage, he once again made a shocking choice: behind the scenes.
The Chinese music scene finally waited for Xiao Gang, who was too late for too long, "Lonely Sandbank Cold" and "The Window That Can't Be Closed", and how many nights at that time were listening to his clean and vicissitudes, counting the broken hearts of autumn leaves and falling asleep. At that time, he was just 35 years old.
However, the years are still turning clouds and rain. In 2014, 45-year-old Zhou Chuanxiong was diagnosed with stomach disease, and the whole person lost 40 kilograms and withdrew from the circle again.
In recent years, it has slowly begun to make a comeback to participate in the show.
Although the object is not human, he is still the little Gang who sings quietly, with sincere eyes and pure singing.
Whether he is eliminated or commented on by the younger generations, Zhou Chuanxiong is Zhou Chuanxiong, and he does not need to be popular on the stage.
The end of his life of thorns and thorns will surely be the sea of stars.
