Edited by a Crazy Girl
Preface
On April 18, 2021, in an episode of the popular variety show "Listen to Sister", actress Huang Xiaolei revealed a little-known emotional experience to the audience.
She revealed that she once had a deep affection for musician and host Da Zhang Wei.
At a certain opportunity, Huang Xiaolei mustered up the courage to confess to Da Zhang Wei: "I like you a lot." In the face of Huang Xiaolei's true confession, Da Zhang Wei did not show obvious surprise or panic, he responded calmly: "I have a special impression of girls with good English and round faces. This sentence caused ripples in Huang Xiaolei's heart, in order to get closer to the ideal type in Da Zhang Wei's heart, she made up her mind to study English hard, hoping to win Da Zhang Wei's heart by improving herself.
After several years of perseverance, Huang Xiaolei's English level has improved significantly.
At this time, Da Zhang Wei sent her an invitation, hoping that she could participate in a variety show hosted by him.
Huang Xiaolei, who received the invitation, was ecstatic, she thought that this was a signal that Da Zhang Wei had a good impression of herself, so she took the opportunity to test Da Zhang Wei again: "Can I be your girlfriend?" Da Zhang Wei's answer made her mood fall to the bottom in an instant.
He replied with a hearty smile: "You will always be my good buddy." This sentence undoubtedly makes it clear that the relationship between the two is only a friend, not the lover relationship that Huang Xiaolei expects.
When the time came to 2014, Da Zhang Wei made an important decision in his life, he chose to enter the marriage hall with Liu Ying, the agent next to him.
Liu Ying happens to fit the characteristics of "good English and round face" described by Da Zhang Wei before, which can't help but make people wonder if Huang Xiaolei has ever been saddened by this.
Although the outside world is not very optimistic about the combination of Da Zhang Wei and Liu Ying, thinking that the gap between them is large, this has not affected Da Zhang Wei's deep love for his wife Liu Ying.
Whether in public or in private life, Da Zhang Wei always makes no secret of his dependence and care for Liu Ying, and the interaction between them is full of love and tacit understanding.
In front of the screen, Da Zhang Wei always shows people with a hippie smile and cynical image, and his words are full of humor and ridicule, making people feel his wit and casualness.
Behind Da Zhang Wei's seemingly relaxed laughter and scolding, there is a deep understanding and unique insight into life and emotions.
His single-mindedness and persistence in love, and his soberness and open-mindedness in life, have earned him the reputation of "sobriety in the world" in the entertainment industry.
Although Huang Xiaolei failed to become the other half of Da Zhang Wei's life, Da Zhang Wei's deep affection for Liu Ying and his attitude towards feelings undoubtedly taught Huang Xiaolei and even all those who paid attention to them a vivid love lesson.
[1] The rise of Da Zhang Wei in adversity and the birth of the Flower Band
Da Zhang Wei fell to the ground in 1983 in an ordinary working-class family in Beijing, his family lived in a small bungalow of only 9.8 square meters, and the kitchen and bathroom facilities had to be shared with more than a dozen households in the neighborhood.
Despite his humble living environment, his parents gritted their teeth and overcame many difficulties in order to support his musical dreams.
During the day, they work hard to ensure the basic expenses of the family, and at night, they drag their tired bodies and dough to the night market to set up stalls to sell pancakes, fruits and other snacks, until late at night when they return home with heavy steps, and the next morning at 7 o'clock they have to get up again to repeat a new round of labor.
All the sweat and bitterness are in order to buy the latest music discs and VCD players for Da Zhang Wei, and sign up for various professional choral training classes.
Despite the hardships of life, Da Zhang Wei has shown extraordinary musical talent since he was a child.
When he was in elementary school, he attracted wide attention with the first place in the Beijing Youth Solo Competition.
When he was in the fourth grade, he was fortunate to go to Russia with the delegation of the Children's Palace to participate in the International Children's Vocal Competition and won the second prize.
In the fifth grade, he was successfully admitted to the prestigious CCTV Galaxy Youth Art Troupe, which further improved his musical literacy.
At the critical moment of entering junior high school, Da Zhang Wei, who was expected to be sent to Wenhui Middle School, a key middle school in Beijing, as a music student, missed this precious opportunity because he entered the voice change period and his voice was affected, and finally he could only study in the general 209 middle school.
In school, although Da Zhang Wei did not become the leader of the class choir as he wished, he was not discouraged.
Instead, he chose to pick up the guitar after the voice change period, mastering new musical skills through self-study.
Soon after entering junior high school, Da Zhang Wei and his classmates Wang Wenbo and Guo Yang formed their own small band.
In 1998, fate favored this tenacious music teenager, Da Zhang Wei, who was singing in the bar, was fortunate to be appreciated by the musician Hongfeng, after some in-depth exchanges and negotiations, Da Zhang Wei and his friends signed a new company in the name of "Flower Band", officially taking an important step towards the entertainment industry.
On the occasion of graduating from junior high school, Da Zhang Wei decisively gave up the opportunity to enter a key high school, determined to devote himself to the development of his music career, and bravely embarked on the Avenue of Stars to chase his dreams.
Since then, his life trajectory has completely shifted to the entertainment industry, and he has begun a musical journey with ups and downs and wonderful experiences.
[2] The road to musical nirvana from "Next to Happiness" to "Hee Haw".
The budding Flower Band in the music industry achieved amazing results in the market with their debut album "Next to Happiness", with sales easily exceeding 500,000 copies, which even exceeded the album sales of the famous singer Pu Shu, who was highly regarded at the time, in the same year.
Mao Amin, a senior in the industry, did not hesitate to praise Da Zhang Wei's talent, commenting that he is a musician full of wealth, and the powerful singer Tian Zhen said bluntly that Da Zhang Wei's musical strength is enough to support the reorganization of a band.
The teenage Zhang Wei became an overnight fame with this album, immersed in accolades and accolades, the band won a series of awards, and many of his songs have been covered by many popular singers.
After discussing with his parents, Da Zhang Wei gave up the opportunity to enter a key high school and chose a vocational high school so that he could devote more energy to his music career.
The song "Next to Happiness" brought him a huge return - an income of 100,000 yuan, which far exceeded the hard-earned income of his parents for a year.
He used the money to buy a new house for his parents, and finally improved the family's living conditions with his own efforts, bidding farewell to the small ten-square-meter cottage.
Just when Da Zhang Wei was intoxicated with the beautiful vision, he was not aware of the hidden crisis.
In 2000, the domestic rock music scene underwent earth-shaking changes, Dou Wei stopped singing, Moyan Records retreated, Zhang Chu returned to his hometown, and the Tang Dynasty band gradually declined due to Liu Yijun's withdrawal.
At this time, rock 'n' roll is no longer the focus of popular culture that young people are chasing.
Da Zhang Wei did not deeply understand this change, and still insisted on staying in the position of the rock band with his teammates.
At the urging of the company, the album "Strawberry Statement" was released the following year, but the result was as dismal as expected, sales fell sharply, the audience turned from enthusiastic applause to frowning and sighing, and the band's income plummeted.
In fact, during the creative process, Da Zhang Wei was already extremely troubled, because the company decided that his work was not rock enough, and repeatedly asked for revisions until it was unrecognizable.
Originally, Da Zhang Wei pursued rock 'n' roll for pleasure and making a living, but now he is unwilling to continue to waste time and talent on things that don't match his original intentions.
In view of the increasingly obvious philosophical differences with the company, Da Zhang Wei proposed to terminate the contract, but then he realized that he had fallen into the trap of the contract.
Hongfeng Company changed its face in an instant, demanding liquidated damages of up to 3 million, and claimed that the copyright of all songs he created must belong to the company, and he himself has no right to sing again.
In anger, Da Zhang Wei took New Bee Music to court.
After nearly two years of litigation, the amount of liquidated damages was reduced to 400,000, even if Da Zhang Wei alone bore the cost, the team members still resented him, thinking that he brought everyone into a predicament.
During that time, Da Zhang Wei was deeply immersed in self-condemnation.
But he did not succumb to the difficulties of reality, but chose to stay behind closed doors and bury his head in creation.
Soon after, he led the band to sign with a new company, and at this time he met an agent named Liu Ying, who would become an important figure in his life.
Soon after this period of transition, Da Zhang Wei's iconic work "Hee Haw" came into being, which rekindled his musical career.
[3] The Flower Band fell from the clouds, and the internal strife and brawl caused the image to collapse
When the song "Hee Haw" swept the country like a whirlwind and quickly became a popular hit song sung in the streets and alleys, Da Zhang Wei and his Huaer Band seemed to be standing at the peak of their music career.
Almost everyone who has heard this song has been moved by Da Zhang Wei's unique talent, and they have praised the innovation and fun of the song.
This sudden glory didn't last long, and as the song's popularity soared, doubts poured in like a tidal wave.
It was pointed out that "Hee Haw" was suspected of plagiarizing the Japanese song "K2G Running to You".
This accusation was like a bolt from the blue, shattering the otherwise beautiful scene of the Flower Band.
The scepticism and invective gradually increased, and finally swept in like a raging storm, ruthlessly shattering the pride of Da Zhang Wei and his band members, and causing them to plummet from high-profile star status.
Subsequently, the other three works of the Flower Band - "The First Favorite in the World", "Fairy Tale Life and Death Love", and "Planet Opera" were also found out one by one and labeled as plagiarism.
The members of the band instantly changed from the idols sought after by thousands of people to the target of public criticism, especially Da Zhang Wei, who was the lead singer and main creator, who suffered the most fierce criticism.
Although he was reluctant and tried to stand up and explain and apologize, the surging public opinion did not subside, but belittled him to the point of incompleteness.
Seeing this, the agency where the flower band worked realized the seriousness of the situation, and tried to calm the turmoil by spending a huge amount of money to buy the copyright of the original song and pay compensation, in order to save the band's damaged reputation.
The public didn't buy it, and negative public opinion was like a stubborn haze, always hanging over the head of the Flower Band.
For a time, this once glorious band seemed to have fallen from the altar and became synonymous with plagiarism in the eyes of everyone, and Da Zhang Wei's musical talent was widely questioned.
In the face of such a predicament, Da Zhang Wei did not choose to be silent or compromised, he responded to the doubts with music and created the song "Poor Happy" to prove his original strength.
The song sparked a craze again with its upbeat melody and heartfelt lyrics, but unfortunately, despite its success in the market, it was not able to reverse the general attitude and negative perception of the band.
has been at the center of the whirlpool of public opinion for a long time, and the psychological pressure of the members of the band is increasing day by day, and contradictions and differences are quietly breeding invisibly.
At one point, the media captured a shocking image: Da Zhang Wei and band member Shi Xingyu arguing violently in a restaurant, even to the point of hands-on.
After this incident was exposed, the public's perception of the Flower Band deteriorated further, and their youthful and sunny image was replaced by negative labels such as "impulsive and irritable", and the original positive image of the band disappeared.
At the same time, a series of negative news followed, which made the band's situation even worse.
Under the pressure of internal and external difficulties, the members of the band finally made the painful decision to disband the band and start their own musical journeys.
[4] A lone ranger in the entertainment industry with both talent and tenacity
Da Zhang Wei was particularly prominent during the period of the Flower Band, he was not only the lead singer and main songwriter of the band, but also undertook various trivial tasks such as operating Weibo and planning program performances, almost single-handedly pushing the entire group forward.
At the beginning, the vice president of the record company to which the Flower Band belonged also complained about him, thinking that he did the most work, but he had to share the remuneration with other members.
It is precisely because of this experience that Da Zhang Wei's abilities in all aspects have been significantly improved, so that after the dissolution of the group, he did not feel afraid of the situation of flying solo, but chose to be silent for a period of time in the early stage.
After flying solo, Da Zhang Wei still adheres to his music dream, continues to release new songs and appear in various programs, but due to various negative news, his resources are limited, and his exposure in the public eye is also reduced.
At the same time, after the other members of the Flower Band broke away from Da Zhang Wei, their career development almost came to a standstill, and it was difficult for them to gain a foothold in the music scene.
In 2009, when he stood on the stage of his dreams, facing the disbandment of the band and the shattering of his music dreams, Da Zhang Wei couldn't help but shed tears, and at that moment he deeply experienced the loss and helplessness of life.
In order to regain his strength, Da Zhang Wei began to strictly control his diet, quitting his beloved Coke and hamburgers, and even went hungry to the point of panic in the process of losing weight.
During the recording of the show, he was misunderstood as uncooperative due to his poor state, and once had an argument with the host, which caused his career to fall into a trough again, and was also misrepresented as smoking D products.
Although both the company and the host came forward to clarify, Da Zhang Wei was still shocked by public opinion and fell into a state of depression.
During this time, his parents were worried that he would not be able to think about it, and they were worried every day.
Da Zhang Wei, who has experienced a trough, began to understand that although his reputation is good, real money is the foundation for ensuring life and realizing his dreams.
Therefore, he temporarily put down his music and devoted himself to the variety show stage, and earned a lot of income by participating in programs such as "Variety Show", which allowed him to get out of the predicament.
Although he was still given a cold reception in the music market, in the 2014 Spring Festival Gala, he made a strong return with "Bei'er Shuang" and once again appeared on the stage of much attention.
Since then, Da Zhang Wei has been active in various variety shows, served as a mentor, participated in "The Summer of the Band", and also became the host of "Everyday Upward", taking over the stubble with a humorous and witty style.
Da Zhang Wei is not satisfied with this, he still loves music deep down, although he is engaged in various variety shows on the surface, he has a deep attachment to music in his heart.
With the precipitation of the years, the 38-year-old Da Zhang Wei has less arrogance and rebellion in his youth, and more tolerance and casualness.
In the past, he dared to laugh at the uniqueness of others, but now, he can tolerate differences and advocate for caring for each other in the midst of differences.
The Da Zhang Wei, who was once regarded as the most unscrupulous, used the most naughty language to convey a deep understanding and comfort of the success anxiety of young people today.
He told young people that life is like 10,000 reincarnations, and that the end of any one does not mean the end, and that perhaps at some point in the future, it will be presented again in another form.
In short, it is indeed a good thing to have a big Zhang Wei in the entertainment industry, and he has added a different style and depth to this circle with his unique perspective and way.
[5] Can the absence of the soul figure restore the glory?
With Da Zhang Wei's remarkable achievements in the field of music in recent years, some veteran members of the Flower Band seem to have been touched by him and have the idea of trying to make a comeback again.
In order to seek a breakthrough, they introduced a female singer named Xiao Ai for a period of time, and at the same time changed the band's name to the more inclusive "Little Love and Flowers".
This change did not bring the band the attention it expected, and Xiao Ai left the band after a brief period of joining, which also seemed to make them realize that the name "Flower Band" itself was the most influential part.
The time came on July 30, 2020, and the Flower Band officially announced the reorganization, but together with the news of the reorganization, the original soul of Da Zhang Wei was not included in the reorganization lineup, just like the Fei'er Band lacked Zhan Wenting when it was reorganized.
When fans opened the music platform to search for the Flower Band, they found that Da Zhang Wei's name was no longer in the list of band members.
The reorganized Flower Band includes newcomer guitarist Zhu Lijie and the lead singer role transformed by original drummer Wang Wenbo.
The biggest difference between the Flower Band and the Fei'er Band is that most of the Fei'er band's songs are not
Written by Zhan Wenting, almost all of the popular hits of the Flower Band were written by Da Zhang Wei.
This means that today's members of the Flower Band only need to rehearse Da Zhang Wei's original songs in the past, and they can continue to make financial benefits from them.
This practice has aroused heated discussions among the majority of netizens, some of whom believe that this is equivalent to a second infringement of Da Zhang Wei's rights and interests, but some people think that as friends for many years, they should have obtained Da Zhang Wei's consent in advance.
In any case, this kind of behavior did violate the original agreement to a certain extent, which undoubtedly made Da Zhang Wei feel embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the reorganized Flower Band did not make much of a splash in the music market, and the public generally believed that the Flower Band without Da Zhang Wei was like losing its soul.
Looking back on Da Zhang Wei's musical journey, although he became famous when he was a teenager, he also experienced a lot of warmth and coldness behind his fame, and perhaps it was these experiences that made him gradually mature in the midst of setbacks and hardships.
