Wang Luobin: The thorny years and glorious chapters of music superstars
Immersed in the lonely silence of a thousand mountains, the life of a music superstar is like a momentary shock, but it sprinkles a bright light in the world, illuminating the road of faith of the Chinese nation. This legendary musician, whose name is Wang Luobin, has experienced great ups and downs in his life, three imprisonments, and twenty years of dark years, but he still firmly writes a glorious chapter in the history of Chinese music.
The Dream of Music: From the Early Years of the People's Republic of China to the War of Resistance Against Japan
Wang Luobin's musical talent comes from the fact that he was born into a musical family. His grandfather was a well-respected artist, and his father was an accomplished musician. Under this influence, his musical talent was already evident in his childhood. However, he did not choose the traditional academic path, but laid a solid musical foundation at the Central Conservatory of Music.
In the early days of the Republic of China, Wang Luobin's music career began to flourish. The classics of the Chinese nation represented by "Youth Dance" made him an instant hit on the music stage. During this period, he was freshly dressed and angry, and he was full of spirit, and became a man of the times. However, this was not the pinnacle of his musical career, as the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War pushed his fate into another war-torn realm.
In 1937, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out, and Wang Luobin resolutely threw himself into the tide of resisting the enemy and saving the country. At the crossing of the Yellow River, he held an important position for the Eighth Route Army Field Service Regiment, ferrying and transporting supplies and rescuing the wounded day and night. His music is not only a booster for anti-Japanese morale, but also a spiritual comfort for the military and civilians. His anti-Japanese war songs, such as "The Villagers Go to the Battlefield", "The Song of Fenglingdu", "Laundry Song", etc., have been sung to this day and have become one of the representatives of that era.
Voices of the Northwest: Music and Dilemma Intertwined
However, the twist of fate always catches people off guard. In 1941, in order to penetrate into the Northwest Army, Wang Luobin established the "Children's Anti-Japanese War Troupe", and his musical path also embarked on a new journey. In the Northwest, he composed a series of fascinating Northwest folk songs, such as "Lift Your Hijab" and "In That Distant Place". However, the desert and desolate land did not bring him happiness. His wife left him, leaving behind loneliness and mental torment.
Wang Luobin is obsessed with music, turning pain into creative power. However, the victory did not bring him peace. In 1944, the reactionary authorities arrested him and he was thrown into a cage where he faced harsh prison life. In prison, he composed songs depicting prison life, such as "The Ballad of the Silkworm", "I Love My Cell", and "Sleeping on the Gobi Desert", using music to build a solid spiritual defense line for himself.
Three Jails: The Soul of Music Never Sleeps
The first and second time he was imprisoned, Wang Luobin survived, but the third time he was imprisoned and sentenced to fifteen years in prison, which put him in a desperate situation. Faced with the darkest years of his life, he wanted to give up at one point, but in the end he used music to overcome his imprisonment. While in prison, he wrote many songs, such as "Tall Poplar" and "The Communist Manifesto", which he persisted for fifteen years until he finally gained his freedom in 1975.
The Renaissance of Music: From Prison to the International Stage
After regaining his freedom, Wang Luobin did not indulge in self-pity, but devoted himself to music creation again. A new revival of his music began, with a series of masterpieces. In 1991, his Northwest folk songs stepped onto the international stage and became a cultural envoy of Chinese music. His "In That Far Away Place" has not only been sung by world-famous singers, but also included in the teaching materials of the Paris Conservatoire and sung all over the world.
The final melody: Always a Chinese
However, the turmoil of life has not stopped. In 1995, Wang Luobin suffered from bile duct cancer. Despite his terminal illness, he still went abroad many times to promote Chinese music despite his old age, contributing his last strength to the music cause of the Chinese nation. At the last moment of his life, he used his last strength to create "Singing Evergreen".
In this song, he expresses his deep affection for his homeland and his undying faith in music. This art superstar has left an immortal melody in the world, and his music transcends time and space and reverberates forever on the land of China. He tells us that even though life is full of ups and downs, the power of music is eternal. He will always be a Chinese, he was born for the music of the motherland!
