Who would have thought that behind the song "Tears behind Bars", which is still familiar to many people today, there is really a bitter journey of the creator?
A bright star with a bright future, who was imprisoned for a little mistake of his own, what has become of his life now, thirty-seven years after he was released from prison?
The star who created "Tears behind Bars" is called Chi Zhiqiang, and his life can be called a tragedy in capital letters, but it was not like this at the beginning.
Chi Zhiqiang was born in Heilongjiang in 1958, and his life was first summed up with the word smooth sailing.
Since he was a child, Chi Zhiqiang has been very diligent in his studies, and he has also shown his talent in acting.
At the beginning, he found that Chi Zhiqiang was very talented in acting was his teacher, and in order not to let Chi Zhiqiang's talent be buried, he also recommended Chi Zhiqiang to apply for the actor class and embark on the road of acting.
In the eyes of people at the time, acting seemed to be inferior to other traditional jobs, and Chi Zhiqiang's parents also thought so, and at first they did not approve of their fourteen-year-old son learning to act.
However, Chi Zhiqiang himself also has a great interest in acting, and out of respect for the child's choice, his parents finally chose to give in.
And Chi Zhiqiang himself did not live up to this opportunity, he successfully entered Changchun Film Studio and became an actor after a certain amount of acting learning.
You must know that Chi Zhiqiang was only fourteen or five years old at that time, and he began to appear frequently on the screen, although it was not too important a role at the beginning, but these experiences paved the way for his future.
At that time, movies such as "Sunny Day" and "Entrepreneurship" had Chi Zhiqiang's figure.
And in that era without capital, Chi Zhiqiang was able to obtain those opportunities by relying on his own strength.
Finally, when he was 19 years old, Chi Zhiqiang got the opportunity to play the leading role in the movie "Little Characters", and his performance was also very vivid, and the image of a low-level character was played by him.
Since then, Chi Zhiqiang's fame has become more and more popular, and he became a popular star in his twenties, and now he can be called a "top traffic star" anyway.
And unlike those stars who only have traffic now, Chi Zhiqiang also has acting skills and is a powerful person.
At that time, the only star who could compare with him in terms of fame was probably Liu Xiaoqing.
His acting career cannot be described as unsuccessful, if Chi Zhiqiang's life continues so smoothly, I am afraid that he can reap more honors by today.
However, life always likes to joke with people, and soon, Chi Zhiqiang's life changed due to a scandal.
Chi Zhiqiang's personality has always been enthusiastic, he is very sincere to anyone, but in 1982, something happened because of his enthusiasm.
At that time, he was originally going to Nanjing to act in movies, and when he found that Liu Xiaoqing and other friends were in Nanjing, he pulled a few people to party together.
After the party, in order to call a car, Chi Zhiqiang met Yang Feng, a woman who has a good knowledge in this regard, who is also the daughter of the leader and runs a lot of clubs.
When he was young, Chi Zhiqiang was very handsome, and there were usually many little girls who had a secret crush on him, and this Yang Feng and Chi Zhiqiang also had an ambiguity in the process of getting along.
Later, it was Yang Feng who took the initiative to introduce Chi Zhiqiang and let Chi Zhiqiang meet a woman named Bai Xiao, this time, Chi Zhiqiang moved her heart, and occasionally several people would dance together.
However, Chi Zhiqiang himself had a girlfriend at that time, and he himself actually admitted that he did not restrain his pursuit of the new opposite sex.
This matter is actually a harmless thing now, after all, the two sides have no substantive behavior, and today's celebrities have long been commonplace to have a scandal with people.
But at that time, when not getting married was playing hooligans, a couple of opposite sexes who had some relationships other than friendship would be called "improper relationships".
Soon, Chi Zhiqiang was reported by others, saying that he had a bad style and always organized dances to mess with the relationship between men and women.
In the present, such a thing may just be exposed, and netizens will end it when they eat as a melon.
But at that time, it was different, at the beginning, it was only said that Chi Zhiqiang did this against morality, and gradually, he was even involved in the "crime of hooliganism".
Not only Chi Zhiqiang, but also Yang Feng and Bai Xiao were sentenced to different years in prison, of which Chi Zhiqiang was sentenced to four full years.
The matter of going to prison is a very serious matter for a star no matter what period, and all Chi Zhiqiang's efforts because of this matter are completely in vain.
Overnight, he went from being a popular star to a "rogue" that everyone shouted at, and those friends who were originally slightly related to this matter were affected by it.
Although Chi Zhiqiang was later released from prison early, this incident had a profound impact on him, he not only lost weight in prison, but also had suicidal thoughts many times, and the whole person lost hope of life.
If it weren't for the fact that there were cellmates beside him, I am afraid that Chi Zhiqiang himself would have died in prison.
And the song "Tears behind Bars" was also created by Chi Zhiqiang based on his own experience in prison.
It is said that if God closes a door for people, then it will definitely open a window, and this sentence is also applicable to Chi Zhiqiang's body.
Although Chi Zhiqiang's reputation in the entertainment industry has plummeted because of these years of squatting in prison, the song "Tears behind Bars" he created after he was released from prison was actually seen by Zhou Yaping because of the true feelings in it.
Zhou Yaping helped Chi Zhiqiang release this song, and the song quickly became popular throughout the country, and also made Chi Zhiqiang famous again.
After all, although there were all kinds of songs sung in the entertainment industry at that time, the "prisoner song" Chi Zhiqiang was really the first to sing.
However, Chi Zhiqiang did not return to the entertainment industry because of this song, he chose to get married and have children, and faded out of the entertainment industry.
His son has known his father's experience since he was a child, and when he grew up, he studied law and became a lawyer, which can be regarded as fulfilling Chi Zhiqiang's dream.
To some extent, his imprisonment had a lot to do with Chi Zhiqiang's lack of understanding of the law.
Now Chi Zhiqiang's son is also very happy and happy, Chi Zhiqiang has also begun to enjoy his old age, and usually publishes some daily life on the public platform, which has also attracted the attention of many people.
It is said that Seweng lost his horse and knew that it was not a blessing, although Chi Zhiqiang's experience was tragic, but without this past, I am afraid that the song "Tears behind Bars" would not have come out.
What do you think about Chi Zhiqiang's past experience?
