Chen Jiangshan, a young man born in southwest Guizhou, accidentally became popular on the Internet last year because he played guzheng on the construction site, and was called "Jianghu Chivalrous" by netizens. After becoming popular, he has appeared on the stage of CCTV and has hundreds of thousands of fans on the short video platform.
Batches of media rushed to report first, and one after another advertisement fell from the sky. But Chen Jiangshan refused the "invitation of Internet celebrities", and life gradually returned to calm. Fading the veil of traffic, this 23-year-old boy has been lost and confused, he once fantasized that going popular would bring great changes to his life, but as he walked, he still felt that being down-to-earth was his best choice.

A series of blue tin fences briefly severed Chen Jiangshan's connection with the construction site.
Swinging left and right, striding meteors, he was still wearing a bright yellow vest that was somewhat stained, and stepping on a pair of dusty black cloth shoes. During the lunch break, he walked step by step toward the dormitory. Even, from Chen Jiangshan's steps, you can glimpse a little of his chivalrous dreams.
In Chen Jiangshan's vague childhood memories, in the martial arts film and television drama, the jianghu chivalrous players play the guzheng, which is always very attractive, but he does not know what the instrument is, he calls it "guqin".
Chen Jiangshan said that he did not have the luxury of thinking about learning musical instruments, but his parents worked in agriculture and there were many brothers and sisters in the family, which was an unfulfilled dream. When I was in junior high school, I went out to work early.
In 2016, Chen Jiangshan was only 18 years old. It just so happened that his cousin was also enrolled in the instrument class to learn this instrument, and he took the initiative to ask to go to class with his cousin, and when he was fine, he would imitate his cousin and flick his fingers in the air. The cousin saw that he liked it and also signed up for a guzheng course for Chen Jiangshan. But the construction period passed quickly, the road was far away, and Chen Jiangshan never had the opportunity to continue the class.
However, the teacher of the training class gave him a guzheng, which was the first guzheng owned by Chen Jiangshan, and he carried the guzheng on his back and shuttled through one construction site dormitory after another. In my spare time, in the simple construction dormitory, I can always hear the intermittent sound of the piano.
Gradually, he began to shoot videos, which were simply edited and posted on the Internet, but few people asked about it. On March 13 last year, by chance, the workers released a video of Chen Jiangshan practicing the guzheng, and it was unexpectedly on fire.
The internet pushed Chen Jiangshan, an ordinary construction worker, onto the stage, and the spotlight focused on him for the first time.
surprised
"There are two ways for people to grow, one depends on their own enlightenment, and the other depends on the impetus of the outside world." Chen Jiangshan thought so, this twenty-year-old teenager, because of the perennial wind and sun, his skin was dark and dark. In the afternoon, he crouched under a wall outside his dormitory, chatting with reporters, "I'm the second."
At the beginning of the popularity, some netizens sent him a private message, "They said I played well and asked me if I could teach them." Chen Jiangshan said that he knew that his guzheng level was limited, but these evaluations still made him excited and excited.
The guzheng, which had a different meaning to him, was eventually lost in the construction sites of different cities, so the teacher gave him another one. In his spare time, he kept studying, sometimes for two or three hours a day, sometimes for a few songs.
In Chen Jiangshan's video, behind him is either an unfinished construction site, or a simple workers' dormitory bed, and sometimes a photo of a worker in the same outfit, a man with a hard hat and a dark face playing a proud song "A Laugh in the Sea", such a strong contrast, there is always a bit of shock.
With the increase in attention, some netizens questioned the true identity of Chen Jiangshan, let it be explained, it is useless, those reasons for doubt, including not believing that a construction worker can play such a chivalrous track, some people say that the price of a guzheng is already expensive, not to mention the pursuit of food and clothing, explore another life.
In short, in the voice of doubt, the identity of the construction worker seems to be the "human design" carefully packaged by Chen Jiangshan.
Sure
The first time he received an invitation from CCTV, Chen Jiangshan did not believe that he felt that such a thing could happen to him. Thinking about it, he still accepted the invitation. Even though he was already on his way to Beijing, he was still in a trance. "But think about it, I'm poor and white, what is there to deceive?" It wasn't until the shooting that he felt like everything was "settled."
The first time he went on stage, he put on makeup, rehearsed, everything was in order, and even he felt nervous when he spoke. He told reporters that at that time, his parents were in a distant hometown, and although he had not heard his parents say such things as being proud of him, Chen Jiangshan guessed that in that distant place, his parents must have been proud and proud.
On the stage, he was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, bright and beautiful, singing in his voice, and the spotlight was lowered, which illuminated his entire face, young and confident. At the end of the show, fading his suit, he was frankly back on the construction site, the field that belonged to him.
But becoming popular has brought Chen Jiangshan far more than just a program. Concentrated interviews and countless advertising invitations flocked to the boy. Some companies invited him to bring goods, each commission rebate, and some companies threw him an olive branch to package him, create an image, and promise that there would be at least hundreds of thousands or even millions of income a year. After thinking about it, he still refused.
Behind those unsettling terms, he said he didn't know if there was any other meaning, but what he feared most was the loss of freedom. "Those are too unreal to be the way I'm going." Chen Jiangshan felt that how long could that kind of life, fading traffic and attention, last? Chen Jiangshan said that he wanted to have his own time, do what he liked, and learn his favorite tracks.
Chen Jiangshan hates the unchanging life, he always wants to break a net, hoping that life will change, although he does not know what that change is.
life
Regarding guzheng, Chen Jiangshan's dream is to be a guzheng player.
Leaving Guzheng, Chen Jiangshan hopes that life will become happier and happier. When the reporter asked what kind of life is happiness, he paused and said, "In fact, my life is quite happy now, people are so contradictory." ”
"You say I want to be the boss don't you?" I have thought about it before, but the boss is also tired, bright performance, and actually carries debts. Chen Jiangshan lit a cigarette, he looked at the workers around him for various reasons, in debt, and felt that his life was not bad.
At half past five, he got up, washed and ate briefly, and got up to work. In the scorching sun, he climbed up and down to build an outer frame, and was an excellent frame worker, and his flexible figure could often be seen on the high frame. Rest at noon, eat in the construction site canteen, take a short break, and then return to the construction site to work. So repeatedly, there is about ten thousand yuan per month in income.
Chen Jiangshan said that he has changed other jobs, but is more accustomed to life on the construction site, because of his freedom, he can go to different cities.
A year later, Chen Jiangshan said that there were fewer and fewer media visiting the media, and the impression was that the last interview seemed to be less than two months ago. The young man said that he had also been lost, and he had also fantasized that becoming popular would bring about a different change in his life. But he told himself that people are constantly learning, and he can find freshness in one new song after another.
At the end of September, on a windy and rainy day, on a construction site in Qingdao's Jimo District, Chen Jiangshan still wore his usual overalls, brought a paddle, and played a guzheng for reporters.
