There are three tenors in the world, and there are three tenors in China, they are Dai Yuqiang, Mo Hualun and Wei Song. The reason why Wei Song was last in line was not that he had poor singing skills, but that he was the oldest and knew how to be a corporal. This article Xiao Tao wants to say is Wei Song. Wei Song was four years older than Mo Warren and nine years stronger than Dai Yu, and he was five out of sixty this year.
"China's Three Tenors"
Some people say that Wei Song is a Shanghainese, but in fact he is a northeasterner who works in Shanghai. Wei Song's hometown is in Yingkou, Liaoning. Most people of his age either cut in line to know the youth or return to their hometown, and Wei Song was no exception. When he was in the countryside, he was responsible for herding cattle and learning to practice his voice every day. He later said that his vocal initiation teacher was a cow.
Wei Song's life had two major turns. The first turning point in his life was that he was admitted to the Shenyang Military Region Forward Song and Dance Troupe. It is said that he is Tong Tiexin's cousin, the one who sang "Sunset Red". The second life twist was when he was recommended to the Shanghai Conservatory of Music for further study. He was the first batch of workers, peasants, and soldiers after the Shanghai Conservatory of Music resumed enrollment.

In 1973, Wei Song came to Shanghai wearing a green military uniform and walked into the Shangyin campus. Xiao Tao had lived in the Shangyin campus for a long time and met Wei Song's teacher, Zhou Xiaoyan. However, by then, Wei Song had already graduated and left school.
After graduating from Shangyin, Wei Song returned to Shenyang Forward Song and Dance Troupe, and later transferred to a literary troupe under the Shenyang Railway Bureau. In 1986, Wei Song participated in the second National Young Singers Television Grand Prix held by CCTV and won the third place in the amateur group of bel canto singing. The first place is Cui Yanguang, who is a flower cavity soprano; the second place is Wang Bi lord, who is also a soprano; and the third place tied with Wei Song is Jiang Shengming, who is a tenor. However, the fame of these three could not be compared with Wei Song. The only person who could compete with Wei Song was Gu Xin, who won the first place in the professional group of bel canto singing, but unfortunately he became a prisoner in 2015 for accepting bribes and embezzlement.
Wei Song was appointed dean of the School of Music at Shanghai Normal University
In the second year of the youth song competition, Wei Song was transferred to the Shanghai Opera House and has since taken root in Shanghai. Wei Song belongs to the late singers of the Great Instrument. He himself once said, "[I'm] forty can sing, fifty have a high pitch, sixty solve high C." Speaking of "fifty years old just had a high note", there is also a funny and poignant past.
Wei Song was the first to sing baritone. When studying at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, Zhou Xiaoyan suggested that he sing tenor instead, saying that Wei Song's voice was different from others, and that he had a foreign voice and could sing foreign operas. More than a decade ago, Xiao Tao once heard a friend in the music industry say that Wei Song's midrange area is very beautiful, but the problem of high pitch has not been solved very well.
September 22, 2007, this day is China's first "car-free day". Wei Song took a taxi to the airport, who knew that there was a car accident on the way, several cars crashed together, Sitting in the back seat Wei Song was seriously injured, the upper lip was broken, bleeding non-stop. Wei Song was carried to an ambulance and taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.
Wei Song when he didn't have a big beard
This accidental injury made Wei Song happy and worried, worried that he had broken his appearance. For an actor, there is nothing more tragic than a broken face. He had to grow a beard and cover his scars; the joy was that the high-pitched problem was solved, not only solved, but also the penetration of the voice was very strong. For such a miracle, Wei Song himself could not say the reason, anyway, it was a blessing in disguise. Dai Yuqiang later quipped that Teacher Wei's high voice was scared out.
The "Three Tenors of China" is Both Chinese and the world
On October 21, 2011, the first performance of "So Many Delicate ——— China's Three Tenors Global Tour" was held in the Great Hall of the People, which gave birth to the outstanding brand of "China's Three Tenors". That year, Dai Yuqiang was 48 years old, Mo Hualun was 53 years old, and Wei Song was 57 years old. Nearly sixty years old, Wei Songcai became very popular. If Xiao Tao said, he was like an aged wine, the older it was, the more fragrant it became.
