Recently, Gao Xiaosong, who has not been seen for a long time, appeared at the scene of a music event, which is almost unrecognizable.
Gao Xiaosong, familiar to the audience, is a "short and tight" image who always wears black-framed glasses, has long black but not so straight hair, and has a slender belly in the middle of the two ends.
Gao Xiaosong shown in the picture is a middle-aged man who has cut his trademark long hair, removed his signature black-framed glasses, and even his stomach is not so obvious.
His image changed so much that netizens almost didn't recognize him, until they saw the words "famous musician and director Gao Xiaosong" on the big screen and heard his familiar grainy voice, and only confirmed that the person in front of them was him.
It is reported that Gao Xiaosong accompanied him to Qingdao to attend the event this time was also the chairman of Taihe Music Group and the president of Modern Sky Marketing. Gao Xiaosong cooperated with Song Ke to establish the independent brand "Maitian Music" as early as 1996, and later developed into the record company Taihe Maitian.
According to the news, Gao Xiaosong and other music leaders appeared in Qingdao activities, suspected to be to launch the "Wheat Field Music Week", and Qingdao city perfectly fits the music market of niche young people, it seems that Qingdao's audience is going to be blessed.
And Gao Xiaosong, who has been silent for a long time, will also start a series of new actions with this public appearance. As early as two years ago, some netizens met Gao Xiaosong in the Gushan Pavilion of Zhejiang Library, when he was leading the team to shoot a film, which is not ruled out to prepare for this series of activities.
Since the interruption of the live broadcast in 2020, Gao Xiaosong's life has been divided into two, the first half of his life is not easy to say, the second half of his life is not good, he is destined to be a complex existence in the minds of the Chinese people.
His life can be roughly divided into three stages, from birth to dropping out of school, all his glory must be attributed to his family background, born in Beijing and living in Shanghai, and then entered the famous Beijing No. 4 Middle School, and it became a natural thing to be admitted to the "family alma mater" Tsinghua University.
During college, it was not so much that he fell in love with music as he caught up with the craze of campus folk songs, and after experiencing a series of things that literary and artistic young people should do such as forming a band, skipping school to perform, and experiencing life, he wrote classics such as "You at the Same Table", "Mike", "The Age of White Clothes" and "Youth Without Regrets", which made him more determined on the road of artistic creation.
In his junior year, despite his family's opposition, he insisted on dropping out of Tsinghua University to prepare for the directing department of the Beijing Film Academy, and after failing the list, he entered the Asian Television Art Center as an intern to continue his dream of directing.
Until 1994, a series of campus folk songs composed by Gao Xiaosong during his college years were compiled and published, marking his official entry into the Chinese music scene and opening the road of music creation for more than ten years.
In the 10s, Gao Xiaosong, who had exhausted his musical inspiration, almost stopped music creation and focused his energy on three aspects: one is to be a director, the other is to engage in programs, and the third is to be a boss.
This experience of traveling to European and American countries in the nineties became the biggest material in Gao Xiaosong's program, and the audience listened to it with pleasure, they heard unheard new things from Gao Xiaosong's program, and used him as a window into the wider world.
When a musician stops talking about music and starts talking about history and consciousness, this means prejudice. With the increase of channels, the audience has a feeling that Gao Xiaosong's views are too subjective, and this subjectivity has some narrow elements.
His "erudite" persona failed and left some infamy, which is the background to the 2020 live broadcast accident. It is worth mentioning that after so many years of debunking rumors, Gao Xiaosong's nationality eventually became the United States on an authoritative platform.
After that, Gao Xiaosong disappeared into the city, and judging from his latest dynamics, the third stage of his life was probably going back to his original intention.
As the saying goes, when a person reaches fifty to know the destiny of heaven, the so-called knowing the destiny of heaven is to fully understand the meaning of his existence in the world, and he wants to do this thing, music and directing, and try to do these things well.
As he gets older, it is impossible to create it himself, but he has resources that he did not have when he was younger, and he can use these resources to achieve macro control and promote the progress of the entire industry, which is not necessarily less credit than creating a few classic works.
People will inevitably fall into right and wrong in this life, and the most effective solution is to focus on a single thing, and a person's ability can only do this step.
