In the 80s, a precious group photo of several Hong Kong male singers, unfortunately, the first three are no longer alive, the last two became the king, and the other became the king of madness, friends, do you remember them?
The first on the left in the front row is Luo Wen, who was once known as the "generation of demon men", as early as the 70s, he was already a god-level figure in the Hong Kong music scene, what fascinated fans was not only his thorough and clean voice, but also the unique and flamboyant makeup, at that time Rowan on the stage, wearing leggings studded with diamonds, waved his arms enchantingly, and swayed his waist, which also gave him the nickname of "a generation of demon men".
However, Rowan is more admirable, is that he spared no effort to insist on promoting the younger generations, and later many of his apprentices have become popular superstars that we are familiar with, such as Joey Yung, Zhou Haimei, Ekin Cheng, etc., the perfect Rowan also has a slight flaw, that is, he has never been married in his life, but in his opinion, this is just the lifestyle he has always adhered to, in May 2002, Luo Wen, who was seriously ill, passed away in the hospital and completed his brilliant and beautiful life.
Sitting in the middle is the well-deserved palace-level superstar Leslie Cheung, but when his brother first entered the entertainment industry, he also experienced several years of obscurity and no one cared about the miserable predicament, until 1984, he finally became popular with a song "Monica", and quickly set off a hurricane in the music scene in Hong Kong, at that time his brother and Alan Tam basically monopolized various music awards in the Hong Kong music scene.
And his brother's high achievements, compared with his character, it is not enough to worry about it, Leslie Cheung, who likes to make friends, is more willing to bring some talented juniors, Zhang Weijian, Louis Koo, Mok Wenwei's growth path has been helped by him, Duke Feng once commented on him, he is a very good person, it is not an exaggeration to describe him with all good words, but what is heart-wrenching is that on April Fool's Day in 2003, Leslie Cheung jumped from the 24th floor of the Oriental Mandarin Hotel, leaving too many regrets for the fans and fans who love him.
Sitting next to his brother is Chen Baiqiang, he stepped into the music scene at the age of 19, became famous at the age of 21, and is especially good at performing romantic love songs, he is a tragic talent, the road of feelings is also full of pathos, and the two marriages in his life have not come to fruition, starring in the movie "Applause" and actress Weng Jingjing met and fell in love, but I didn't expect the other party to marry Liu Jialiang, who was 30 years older than him.
Later, his relationship with He Chaoqiong was opposed by the gambling king Stanley Ho, and finally He Chaoqiong married Xu Jinheng, and Chen Baiqiang announced the end of his music career with a song "Just Because I Love You". The two failed romances hit Chen Baiqiang hard, and his life became bleak, so that he finally fell into the quagmire of alcoholism and sleeping pills, and in 1993, Chen Baiqiang, who had been in a coma for 17 months, died regrettably.
The first from the left in the back row is Jacky Cheung, what people are most impressed by him today is probably the-eating emoji, as early as the 80s, he was the king of the Hong Kong music scene, Jacky Cheung's early experience was full of ups and downs, but his talent in music finally changed his life, in 1985, his first album sold 200,000 copies, and today, his record sales worldwide are second only to Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop". He is now in his sixties, but he is still sticking to his music career.
The last one is Cai Fenghua, in the 80s, he was involved in the Hong Kong music scene, program hosting, film and television interpretation, etc., and is a celebrity in the Hong Kong entertainment industry on the same level as Leslie Cheung and Alan Tam, but at an awards ceremony in 1985, because of the temporary change of the organizer, Cai Fenghua was dissatisfied, and when introducing Leslie Cheung as the host, he said the sentence he regretted the most in his life, "A moment of brilliance does not mean eternity." "
He offended too many people, and his career went downhill from then on, and later, in order to make a living, he had to accept the small business performances that he once looked down on, falling from the peak to the trough, and the huge gap gave him too much impact, and it was once rumored that he had mental problems, so that he had the nickname of "Mad King".
