Alain's full name is Alain Dawa Dolma, a Tibetan girl from Kangding, Sichuan.
At the age of 19, he debuted in Ai Hui and was known as "Weimei Geji".
Ten years after returning to China, Alain has countless fans on the Stage of Sister Lang because of The Buddhist system and high value.
She was often photographed eating heavily, yawning, and being told by her mentor to cry her nose.
But the next second, it quickly stood up, and it could afford to lose.
The most pleasing thing is her thick lines, exuding a kind of "never been PUA by this world".
In mid-March in Beijing, we met Alain less than a month after she had finished attending Sister Lang.
"I haven't eaten much every day for 4 consecutive days, and I've lived on a mouthful of water and a breath of fairy breath."
Alain likes to pout when expressing grievances, and childish body language blurs the precipitate that the years should have.
In the 15th issue of YoungFace, we try to salvage a more real and complex alternative singer.
See how she confidently insists on life propositions in an era when the texture is hard and desire is boiling.
The Japanese call Alain the "Earth Song Ji", which has the meaning of healing the human heart.
Her first single, "Hymns of Tomorrow", is an insurmountable mountain in the hearts of fans.
Alain's song has a profound meaning, and when you calm down and listen to it, it is like the healing feeling of cold moonlight caressing your whole body.
And Lan Lanzi is absolutely confident in singing: drink more water before singing my songs, the sound is too high.
Despite having a flowing face, Alain aspired to be an artist at the age of 16.
"Probably the most important thing I can do is to do one thing well, and that is to sing."
Her idols are Ryuichi Sakamoto and Jacky Cheung, both artisan singers who pour light and heat into the stage.
The first reversal of the Lying Flat Man was when Alain sang "Ode to the Sacred Mountain".
As soon as she opened her mouth, her energy exploded, her voice was ethereal, and the long singing voice that came with her Tibetan blood could be "cool to people's eyes", like sending mountains, rivers, lakes and seas to people's eyes.
When not singing, Alain becomes "lazy" in seconds, too lazy to support himself in front of the camera.
Lang Jie social field, 30 sisters gathered together for the first time, long time not seen and never met intertwined, the whole atmosphere is bright and tense.
The camera scans Alain's closed eyes and meditation, as if he were attending an afternoon tea party.
The Langjie stage reflects too much desire to "want to turn red", and Alain exudes the aura of "doing everything and obeying the destiny".
She has a clear skeleton and the ability to make a joke point.
Before Sister Lang's first performance, Alain formed a "zero" group with Joey Yung and Chen Yanxi.
During rehearsals, Alain, who has no dance foundation, has been struggling to keep up with the beat of the other two sisters.
During the first "small test", the three instructors needed to give evaluation and guidance, and after watching Alain's performance, Huo Wenxi said: "I think you don't want to sleep tonight, for the time being, you are the weakest of the three people." ”
Lan Lanzi said he was devastated: I haven't eaten for a day today!
He also said that he really wasn't lazy.
Chen Yanxi and Joey Yung comforted her: the camera was taken, and everyone saw it.
Alain held out his fleshy finger to the place where he was dancing, saying that there was no video camera in that place.
Under pressure and heart congestion, Lan Lanzi, who did not want to go to dinner, immediately broke the work when Chen Yanxi handed her snacks, and said "want to want" with a crying voice.
After being "criticized" for three consecutive days, Lan Lanzi carefully planned an "escape route" on the paper, but unfortunately, in the end, because there were security guards on both sides, he could only stop there.
In an interview, Alain admitted that he was not confident at first.
There is no dance foundation, you can only skip eating and practicing every day, and the most eaten are cucumbers and cherry tomatoes.
After Sister Lang finished, Alain lost six pounds.
Importantly, the Leo girl's gorgeous self-esteem is poked to pieces.
If the world were to pua Alan, she would not be obedient.
After singing "Ode to the Sacred Mountain", Du Hua gave Alain 16 points, "If you are diligent and hardworking, you will not be in this café today." ”
Referring to Du Hua's evaluation of her, Alain said firmly: I don't approve of it, because she doesn't understand me.
"I Leo, don't want face."
In fact, Alain has a self-respecting and strong soul.
She told us that when she was a student, she was far less easy-going than she is now.
When Alain was a teenager, she transferred from Kangding to Sichuan to study, and a boy bullied her as a "transfer student", but she did not expect Alain to beat up this boy first.
This may have laid the foundation for Alain to be able to oppose the PUA world.
In 2003, at the age of 16, Alain was admitted to the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts, where he studied under Li Shuangjiang.
At that time, Alain was a cool girl with seven or eight ear holes in her ears; she skipped school with her friends and went to an Internet café to play games for two consecutive days, and was later caught by her parents.
In the military arts, there are many girls singing, and everyone seems to be preparing for fame in advance, coming and going alone, and showing their hearts high.
In order to "shock" others on the stage, Alain usually deliberately shows a strong aura and rarely laughs.
"So at that time a lot of people saw me and thought I was fierce."
After his debut, Alain's straight-forward approach was assembled by fans into "lazy quotes".
"I am who I am, and no one can change me!" I'm just so personal, just so real, how? Can you eat me? ”
Teach me a lesson, and you deserve it?
Alain's exposed true temperament is naturally hedged against the social atmosphere of Japan's strict courtesy.
When she has emotions, she will write on the blog, and in the end, the staff will directly delete her.
But domestic news focused on her grinning side.
For example, when she eats Kobe beef, she dances excitedly, and the Japanese media calls her "Beef Katsuhime";
There are also many jokes made when I was studying Japanese, and I obviously wanted to thank the office for taking care of myself very hard, but it turned out that "the office is going to be finished!" ”。
It's really not surprising.
Her big grin masked those "burrs" on the road to fame.
In fact, being a Buddhist singer is not an easy task.
In 2006, Japan's Avex Music Company established a Chinese branch, and the owner, Katsura Matsuura, wanted to find a Chinese girl and make her the next Asian singer, like Ayumi and Amuro.
Ai Hui selected tens of thousands of people in three months, and did not meet the right ones until he met Alain who came in military uniform.
"I was really stunned to say that I had reached the peak of my life."
After saying that he "reached the peak of his life at the age of 21", Alain was punched in the face by reality.
In one of the few images documenting Alain's life in Japan, she often cries her nose.
Sometimes it's because of the dedication of the staff, sometimes it's because of the pressure, and it's more homesick.
The Japanese lessons, dance classes, and vocal music classes arranged by the company made her dizzy.
In Japan, where artist competition is fierce, "lazy" is just her humble words.
The first album, Hymns of Tomorrow, sold 4729 copies, while the second single a few months later sold just over a thousand copies.
Alain was worried in his heart, especially afraid that her boss would "send" her back to China.
In order to accumulate popularity, she traveled to 47 prefectures in Japan, sometimes getting up at three or four o'clock in the morning to start work.
△ Alain participated in a TV variety show
The days of returning home after work are even more difficult, because long-distance international calls are expensive, and she can only chat with her parents on QQ, but QQ was eventually stolen.
But loneliness and stress have skyrocketed her career.
In 2008, she released a single based on the five elements of "earth, air, wind, fire and water" for five consecutive months.
Among them, "Land"'s single "Nostalgia for the Future ~ Longing Future" is cooperated with the master Ryuichi Sakamoto.
In fact, Sakamoto Ryu was amazed by Alain's voice early on: "I accidentally heard Alain singing on a Japanese pop music program, and the singing was so amazing that it startled me." ”
Those years were the highlight moments that belonged to Alain, and it was not easy to get the approval of so many masters.
She sang the theme song for the movie "Chibi", which was at the top of the daily and weekly charts of the Oricon Public Trust Chart, breaking the record that Faye Wong held for a decade as the best Chinese singer in Japan.
In 2009, Alain reached the peak of his career and attended the national banquet as a representative of the outstanding Chinese in Japan.
In 2010, when Sino-Japanese relations were tense and idol groups began to conquer the market, the era of Katsuhime inevitably came to an end.
△ In July 2011, Alain announced to fans at a concert in Tokyo that he would shift the focus of his career back to China.
There are regrets, there are unfinished ambitions, but there are also indescribable bitterness.
"Speaking in a language that is not your own, practicing every day, spending a lot of time understanding the meaning of the lyrics, and being corrected pronunciation."
"After 4 years of hard work, I finally survived, and when people came to say hello to me, I left."
After returning to China, Alain suddenly changed from king to bronze and re-entered the pass.
"In foreign countries, in fact, Ge Ji is Ge Ji, Love Bean is Love Bean, actor is an actor, in fact, everyone is similar, but in China, there may not be a pure Ge Ji This statement, basically it is traffic."
She has sung theme songs for TV series such as "Step by Step" and "Flowers and Bones", and she is not popular.
In 2013, when she was ready to stand on the stage of "China's Strongest Voice" as a newcomer, Luo Dayou praised her strength and excellence, but said, "This stage is a little insufficient, a little small." ”
But in addition to the weight change, others can't find any embarrassment in her that is related to "Past Song Ji".
Her private clothes are luxurious brand-plus, and watches and diamond rings are almost not duplicated.
The investment consciousness rose early, is a shareholder of several companies, people sent nickname "Lan Boss".
According to the summary of the gossip section, Alain can be lucky to lie flat because of his excellent family and strong investment ability.
But she told us, "I'm probably a little bit better than my peers, but not as exaggerated as people say." ”
Rumors about talent, luck, etc. were dismantled by her.
Even the investment is a natural success, what the friend does, she will follow the investment, there is no thrilling drama in it.
"You say that you don't have to be the one who rides the wind and waves, and I hope that I can calm down a little in my life, not so windy and waves."
When he was idle, Alain's mind was full of strange thoughts.
For example, what to do if global warming and human beings are submerged by the ocean, she has also tried to hold her breath in the water and adapt in advance.
Because of the various "Ma Daha", Alain escaped the standard life template in the secular sense.
She didn't even want to carry too much weight on her appearance.
Sometimes when going to the hotel, she often forgot to bring makeup remover, she would wash it with soap and shower gel, and after washing it, she felt guilty and immediately used mineral water to dip it on the towel to cover her face.
Until now, she couldn't remember this, and every business trip required a long list to get the staff ready in advance.
As for what to do if wrinkles grow.
"I think that's a good testament to your years. But if you usually do some serious maintenance or pay attention to yourself, you will not grow old so fast.
And you must maintain a more optimistic heart, and then do not have too many thoughts, so that if you live a relatively shallow life, then you will not be easy to get old. ”
She was like a wild child who hadn't been socialized.
Other parents expect their children to get ahead and become role models, while Alain expects to be happy.
People around me changed careers at the urging of the times, doing vibrato, filming, and playing live broadcasts.
Alain just wants to be a singer who can do concerts at the age of 60.
Because of the purity, it is also difficult for her to blindly enter a marriage.
And people who firmly hold their lives in their hands will naturally not cling to red or not red.
As for how to deal with this era of hard texture?
Alain put it personally into the words: When you love yourself with enough evidence, you have the energy to step on the frame.
When the world tries to PUA you, you also have the courage to say, "What do you have to do with me when the world is broken." ”
