When singer Cai Shiyun shared her music path and life experience in the variety show "Riding the Wind 2024", Li Jiage cried. Because Li Jiage also lived in someone's wife for a while, and later found value and self-confidence from music.
When the "Hot Winter" team was eating hot pot, Shang Wenjie asked Cai Shiyun if she sometimes wanted to quit the circle, and Cai Shiyun said that she often wanted to quit the circle. The music she made in the early stage was not in the style she liked, and she did not reach a high height and was not well-known, and her parents were very successful, which also put pressure on her and made her very painful. Later, she fell in love with Wang Yangming, got married, and had children, but people paid attention to her emotional life, not her music, and when they introduced her, they all said that she was Wang Yangming's wife. At first, she was uncomfortable, but slowly she accepted it. After that, she tried to change herself, to be a community, to make the music she liked, to become a singer of another style, and to regain her self-confidence.
Li Jiage, who had almost had the same experience, cried when he heard it. Li Jiage said that she wanted to quit the circle in the second year of her debut, because they were replaced very quickly, and suddenly they couldn't make money, and they didn't know what to do. Back then, Na Ying told her, you first went to the United States to study for your debut, I will give you a guitar, and you have to study your music well. She felt that Na Ying was very right, but she had no money, she didn't have this choice, she had to work immediately, earn money, and then think about what she had to do later, which was the first thing she had to consider when she was alive.
So at that time, I thought that I should go back to the bar and sing, because you have been singing for so many years, and you have actually lived a good life. But after she was signed by the company, she didn't have a job, so how could she live. That was the first time she wanted to quit the circle.
Later, she got married, had children, and got married. And the entertainment industry is very realistic, and when you escape from this circle, you may never have a chance again. Because every year there is so much fresh blood infusion, so many young children they have become big trees, you have all withered, she feels that she is a withered thing, until after giving birth she really wants to give up. She was depressed for almost a year after giving birth and was particularly anxious. Although I don't deny that I can find some resources, I say that I want to participate in this show, participate in that show, and I can really be on all the shows. She used the money she earned to make albums, and spent a lot of money to make albums, but there was no sound, and at that time it was a time in her life when she felt that she was worthless, so she felt that she would forget it. Anyway, you don't have to worry about eating at that time, but if you don't make a sound, you won't release an album.
These things made her never want to touch music again for about two or three years. and then until she became Cai Shiyun, living in someone's wife. The circle in Shanghai is very small, if you go out with your sisters, they will introduce new friends, this one will introduce whose wife, and that one will also introduce whose wife it is. She is a girl from the Northeast, what a temper, how can she stand this. Of course, she does not deny that she is very happy as anyone's wife, but she very much hopes that when others introduce her, they will say that her name is Li Jiage. That made her very uncomfortable, so I understand the experience Cai Shiyun just said.
She felt that she must be able to do something about it, whether more or less, and felt that she couldn't just lie there and do nothing. So she started to do self-media, and began to do her own self-media, which is the community that Cai Shiyun just said. Every opening line of her content is "Hello everyone, I'm your favorite Garg". This sentence is her psychological hint, one is to let others remember that her name is Li Jiage, and the other is to hope that the audience still likes her. So she did this, and she has been doing it for more than two years, almost three years, and she made short videos in the first two years, and she had a sound. She walks outside, and they will say "Li Jiage, I like you, I'll watch your short videos." Until her husband Che Che was on the plane, a flight attendant said to Che Che, "Are you Li Jiage's husband?" Che Che came back to tell her, he said that more and more people saw you, and she was very happy. It's not about money at all, it's just that if you want to do it any time, it will make a sound.
Including coming to participate in Sister Lang, the reason why she is very happy is because the people below say that Li Jiage can sing. Because she hadn't sung for so long, some viewers didn't remember that she could sing. Although she doesn't have many self-media fans, more than one million, at least she can let more than one million people know that Li Jiage can sing. This year, she used all the money earned from live broadcasts and the money from advertisements to hold offline meet-and-greets, and she didn't want fans to pay a penny, she asked fans to come and see her, and she could hold a concert for herself, which is the meaning of what she did. She has a sentence that she wants to say to girls in particular - no one should like you, no one will necessarily love you, and even some people may not know how to respect you, but if you look in the mirror, you must take a good look at yourself and love yourself.
Judging from the experiences of Cai Shiyun and Li Jiage, the experiences of the two are quite similar, and they are not satisfactory in the early stage. One is that the music style that the company has planned for itself is different from what he likes, his talent is suppressed, and his grades are not particularly good, and the other may be that he has not received much attention from the company, or it is almost interesting in all aspects, resulting in no work and great economic pressure. Later, they all got married and had children, and became so-and-so's wife. After that, because he was unwilling to be just the wife of so-and-so, he once again ignited his fighting spirit to pursue his music dream, and found his own value in his dreams, so that he became confident.
