Music is an indispensable thing in human life, and all emotions such as happiness and sadness can be expressed through songs. But audiences tend to remember only the singers, and the songwriters behind the scenes are easy to overlook. For example, Xu Jingqing, who composed the lyrics of "Daughter Love" and "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is" composed for the 87th edition of "Journey to the West", was known to the audience many years later.
Some people say that Ren Xianqi is China's "singer", perhaps he has faded out of the song circle, but his songs can basically be sung by anyone, especially his famous song "Heart Is Too Soft". The person who created this song for him is called Chen Huanchang, and it is said that the inspiration for this song was created while he was angry and depressed after he gambled and lost money.

Talent and hard work have always been a matter of debate in the academic community, and some people have really worked hard all their lives to succeed, but there is indeed a kind of person who is born for music. Creating music is a kind of talent for him, he has not studied it specifically, he is not from a science class, but the songs he creates are able to strike directly into people's hearts, and Chen Huanchang is the latter.
Chen Huanchang's stage name is Xiao Worm, he and Luo Dayou, Li Zongsheng once occupied half of the Taiwanese music scene, known as the three giants of Taiwanese musicians. Chen Huanchang was born into an ordinary worker and peasant family, and his parents did not enroll him in any music classes when he was a child. And Chen Huanchang's path to music can be said to be accidental and doomed.
According to rumors, Chen Huanchang fell in love with music when she was 6 years old, and one day her aunt took her to a Catholic church in rural Taiwan, just when a nun was playing the piano. The beautiful, crisp sound of the piano fascinated Chen Huanchang.
Later, Chen Huanchang went to church every day to listen to the piano. One day there was no one in the church, he quickly ran over and secretly pressed the keys of the piano a few times, and the clanging piano sounded, Chen Huanchang felt very novel, and he was very happy, and he couldn't help but press a few more times. Since then, Chen Huanchang has fallen into an infinite fantasy of music and fallen in love with music creation.
In 1983, Chen Huanchang entered the music circle for the first time with two songs composed for Zheng Yi, "It's Time for the Little Rain to Come" and "Remembering My Love". In the same year, he created "The Restaurant of Lost Love", and for a while this fledgling musician stirred up small waves in the music circle.

In the 12 years from 1983 to mid-1995, Chen Huanchang composed countless songs for many musicians. For example, in 1986's "Heart Crying", "I Don't Care", etc., the singer at that time, Huang Yingying, also won the Best Composition Award of the Singapore "Golden Melody Awards". Later, Chen Huanchang's album "Burial of Heart" created for Huang Yingying was also awarded numerous awards.
It can be said that Chen Huanchang is the Bole of many singers, and the songs he has composed for singers are also numerous. And the relationship between Chen Huanchang and Ren Xianqi can be said to be like Fang Wenshan and Jay Chou, achieving mutual achievements. When Ren Xianqi first entered the record company, he was just an unknown little singer, and Chen Huanchang was already a well-known little worm teacher in the music industry.
Chen Huanchang can be described as peach and plum all over the world, his students are very large, and one of his favorite students is definitely Ren Xianqi. He once said in an interview that what is valuable is persistence, and this is also his willingness to like Ren Xianqi. When Ren Xianqi first arrived at the company, it can be said that he has always been obscure, but he never gives up.
Ren Xianqi is also a person with a heart, who has been in the company for three years, the earliest to come and the latest to go, even if it is a miscellaneous cleaning, he is not willing to go. At the beginning, the company did not rely on the heavy responsibility of Xianqi, but he never gave up, and he never had two hearts, in fact, he had the opportunity to learn from Li Zongsheng or Luo Dayou, but he just kept following Chen Huanchang and did not go, which also made Chen Huanchang determined to help him.
In 1996, Chen Huanchang began to compose the album "Dependence", "For Love" and so on, and Ren Xianqi's gentle singing voice was liked by the audience and began to be famous. But what made Ren Xianqi famous was the 1997 song "Heart Too Soft". It can be said that all the streets and alleys of that year were known to everyone and no one sang, and everyone sang a few words "You are always too soft in heart, too soft in heart, alone until dawn."
It would be funny if the background of the song was written. In 1997, Chen Huanchang went to Las Vegas for a vacation, because he was too bored, and his friends pulled him to the casino to gamble money. At the beginning, Chen Huanchang had good luck and always won, just when he wanted to leave, the licensed girl there kept telling him to continue gambling, but he could not stand the girl's request, and Chen Huanchang continued to gamble.
Perhaps it is the turn of feng shui, Chen Huanchang used up his luck in the front and lost the second half, not only losing all the money he won back, but also posting a lot of money. After Chen Huanchang drove back to the hotel, he was so angry that he couldn't sleep, so he got up and wrote songs. It didn't take long to create this song "Heart Too Soft".
Perhaps the song "Heart Is Too Soft" has written the voice of many people, the lyrics are catchy, extremely easy to remember, and it is deeply loved by the audience as soon as it is released, and Ren Xianqi has also won numerous awards with this song, becoming the "singer" in the hearts of many audiences.

Many people say that Chen Huanchang has achieved Ren Xianqi, but Chen Huanchang has always said to the outside world that they have achieved mutual achievements. At that time in Taiwan, his influence was by no means inferior to that of Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng, and it can be said that he can say these words, which shows Chen Huanchang's low-key character.
Chen Huanchang once said that he also had a difficult time, and it was Ren Xianqi who helped him get through the difficulties. When the accountant of his company took away his money, Ren Xianqi immediately brought money to him after knowing it, and told him that he did not need to rush to pay it back, and it did not matter if he could not return it in the future. After this incident, Chen Huanchang also knew Ren Xianqi's character and understood many truths.
Chen Huanchang said that people are always suffering to see the truth, and in the end fame and money are not so important, and the people around them can help each other is the most important. Chen Huanchang said that he liked his stage name, a small worm, a strong little bug, not proud nor domineering, modest and low-key, tenacious and powerful.

Worm Chen Huanchang can be said to be a very successful musician, writing nearly a thousand songs since his debut, and has also helped hundreds of singers to produce albums. Chen Huanchang can be said to be a proper labor model in the music industry, and it is also rare that he can maintain a humble heart all the way to this height.
Nowadays, many singers write songs to become famous in order to make money, and there are fewer and fewer people like Chen Huanchang, Li Zongsheng and so on. As a musician, you should regard music as the most important, and if you create songs for profit, it is difficult to touch people's hearts.
Chen Huanchang has come all the way, reached the peak and encountered lows, and has been defrauded by people, but fortunately, the popularity he accumulated in the past has been sad for him. Perhaps after experiencing ups and downs, he cherishes the present more now, and the songs he produces are basically fine, although the background of the creation of the song "Heart Too Soft" was a bit bumpy, but this song is also a youth that many people will never forget.
