Gao Xiaosong came to apologize. ”
Director Pan Jie posted a video on her social platform with this sentence.
As soon as the video was released, it set off a wave of discussion.
In the video, Gao Xiaosong came to the house of his mentor Luo Xiaoling with flowers in his hand, and after worshipping his mentor, he chatted with Pan Jie, who had been friends since childhood, and begged the other party to forgive him many times.
At first glance, this is still Gao Xiaosong, who spoke sharply before.
What did Gao Xiaosong do? Why does he show his powerlessness in the video?
The once flamboyant and conceited Gao Xiaosong seems to have disappeared.
01, the rebellious "pride of the sky"
Gao Xiaosong's background has a very high starting point for education.
His father was a professor at Tsinghua University, and his mother graduated from Tsinghua University and was an architect and educator.
Influenced by a strong academic atmosphere since he was a child and enjoying top educational resources, Gao Xiaosong has excellent grades and is a good child of others.
In 1988, Gao Xiaosong was admitted to Tsinghua University.
Originally, he could have taken the academic route like his parents.
But he found that he didn't like academics, but music.
When he was in college, he formed a band with Old Wolf and others.
It's understandable to have a hobby, but Gao Xiaosong dropped out of school without saying a word in his junior year and devoted himself to music.
Later, he became obsessed with movies again, so he applied for the directing department of Beijing Film Academy.
It was here that Gao Xiaosong met his mentor Luo Xiaoling.
Luo Xiaoling took a fancy to Gao Xiaosong's talent and provided a lot of help during his studies. When he was confused, Luo Xiaoling gave him a lot of encouragement and advice.
When Gao Xiaosong made his first movie, Luo Xiaoling also gave detailed guidance.
This is Gao Xiaosong's enlightenment teacher on the road to directing movies.
Even Pan Jie complained that her profession was a director, but her mother had never guided her much at all, but she had been helping Gao Xiaosong.
Before Luo Xiaoling died, she wanted to see Gao Xiaosong again, but Gao Xiaosong did not meet her teacher's wish on the grounds that she was busy.
In the conversation with Pan Jie, Gao Xiaosong also mentioned this incident, and it can be seen that he regrets not rushing back from the United States.
For Gao Xiaosong at that time, it seemed that only career was the most important.
He didn't recognize that there were many things more to cherish.
Gao Xiaosong is indeed very talented, and the song "You at the Same Table" he wrote has been on the Spring Festival Gala and is popular all over the country.
"The Age of Fluttering White", "Who's the Brother on My Top Bunk" and "Youth Without Regrets" are also from Gao Xiaosong.
He has written novels, written screenplays, and written and directed films.
Later, he served as a judge or guest on a number of summary programs.
"Happy Girl", "China's Got Talent", "Wonderful Talk" and other well-known variety shows, Gao Xiaosong has been on the judges' bench.
Perhaps because he has a talent that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, Gao Xiaosong did not go through too many setbacks and reaped the success of his career.
Sometimes easy success is not a good thing, it is not only easy to make people flutter, but it can also lead people astray.
Gao Xiaosong is proud and conceited because of his talent, and he is flying and domineering because his career is smooth sailing.
As everyone knows, he is stepping into the deep pit he dug step by step.
02, "Xiao Shuo" and "Strange Talk" become "Nonsense"
With his creative talent, Gao Xiaosong has become a well-known musician, novelist and film director.
He has also served as a director or director in Sohu Entertainment, Sina.com, Evergrande Music, and Ali Music.
During this period, he founded two talk shows, one is "Xiao Shuo" and the other is "Xiao Song Qi Tan".
In the show, Gao Xiaosong held a fan and talked about the world, as if he was the genius who knew astronomy and geography, and was rich and rich.
But he himself had gotten carried away.
He had creative talent, but he was not a historian, let alone an expert in a particular specialty.
When it comes to knowledge, he may not be as good as a knowledge blogger at a certain station.
Gao Xiaosong relied on his family background, outstanding creative talent, and continued well-known in variety shows to obtain the dividends of this era.
So he crossed over and did a talk show, which became logical.
However, the words on the show are not casual.
He praised other countries, saying that there were no policemen and thieves in India;
He said that the United States was the best for China, and perhaps because of that he became an American citizen;
He even said that he could go to Japan to pay homage to the shrine, saying that those people were fighting for their country and were not war criminals.
At this time, Gao Xiaosong touched the bottom line.
Talk shows can talk about history and the world, but under the cloak of telling history, they contain "private goods" that contain evil intentions, and they are absolutely not.
In 2021, a series of Gao Xiaosong's programs will be taken off the shelves, and the abuse of netizens will also sweep indeed.
After that, Gao Xiaosong "hidden" himself.
At that time, he may not have realized his mistakes, and he would post some news on social platforms from time to time.
But nothing made a splash.
If it weren't for the video of Gao Xiaosong apologizing to Director Pan Jie that spread quickly on the Internet, people seemed to be about to forget him.
03. Is it repentance, or is it a desire to make a comeback?
But when Gao Xiaosong reappeared in the public eye, those memories that had been buried for a long time resurfaced.
The Internet has a memory, and when it can't remember a person, it doesn't mean that it really forgot him.
The most fundamental reason why Gao Xiaosong appeared in Pan Jie's video this time was his inappropriate remarks.
In the program "Goddess of the Republic of China Series", Gao Xiaosong described some things about Pan Jie's grandmother Li Lili, many details are inconsistent with the facts, and there is also a situation of Zhang Guan Li Dai.
Not only that, when introducing Li Lili's father Qian Zhuangfei, he said that he was the director of Beiying.
But as long as you do a little homework, you will know that Beiying was founded in 1950, and Qian Zhuangfei died in 1935.
Originally, Qian Zhuangfei first devoted himself to revolutionary work, and then went to make a movie.
And this was interpreted by Gao Xiaosong as Qian Zhuangfei was a film director who became an agent very casually.
Gao Xiaosong also said that Qian Jiang was Li Lili's brother, but in fact, Qian Jiang was his younger brother.
Qian Jiang is a photographer who filmed China's first color feature film "Blessing", in which Qian Jiang served as a photographer in eight model scenes, and later became an independent director.
Gao Xiaosong said that Qian Jiang was the director of six of the eight model plays, which is not rigorous at all.
In Pan Jie's words: "In this way, where are the real directors of those films?"
Pan Jie couldn't stand it, so she had to respond with a sense of anger.
After Gao Xiaosong saw Pan Jie's response, he decided to worship his teacher on the occasion of Qingming Festival, and then apologize to his teacher's family.
In the conversation between the two, Gao Xiaosong admitted his mistakes, saying that his "history" that came out of his mouth was mixed with too many elements of personal interpretation.
Although Pan Jie had a strange expression, she finally accepted Gao Xiaosong's apology.
In this regard, some netizens commented angrily: Does Gao Xiaosong want to take the opportunity to make a comeback? Has he forgotten his previous words and deeds?
A few years ago, Gao Xiaosong was scolded by netizens for "withdrawing" from the public eye because of those remarks that hurt national feelings.
Later, from time to time, he posted some ugly photos or self-deprecating jokes on social platforms, and at the end of the past March, Gao Xiaosong posted photos of himself losing weight......
But these, in the eyes of netizens, are all actions that he wants to make a comeback.
Looking at the act of apologetic again, it seems that he is whitewashing himself.
From a talented artistic creator to a "street rat" that everyone shouts and beats, I wonder if this former genius has regretted it?
04. Write at the end
In the past few years, Gao Xiaosong suffered from depression, and at its worst, he only slept 40 minutes a day, and he lost weight like this.
Now he has lost his original publicity and self-confidence, and he is no longer so sharp and eloquent.
He cut off his long hair, shaved his beard, and became low-key and cautious.
Gao Xiaosong, who used to be high on the other side of the seesaw, is now on the other side of the seesaw.
Some say that this is the price he paid for the "nonsense" he once said.
Maybe.
It's just that whether Gao Xiaosong really "changed his past" this time can only wait and see.
