Michael Jackson: A cross-generational music giant with a deep relationship with China
In the distant last century, there was such a musical genius, whose singing crossed borders and touched the hearts of countless people. His name is Michael Jackson. Today, let's look back on the life of this legendary figure, especially his unique relationship with China.
In 1958, a child from a black family was born in the United States, and he was the future music superstar - Michael Jackson. Since childhood, he has lived in a family full of musical atmosphere. Although his father was a steel mill worker, his love of music led him to form a band with his brother, and his mother often hummed songs. Growing up in such an environment, Jackson naturally developed a keen interest in music.
However, his childhood was not easy. At that time, blacks were inferior and suffered from all kinds of injustices. But with his love and talent for music, Jackson overcame all kinds of difficulties with his family. At the age of 5, he formed a band with his four older brothers and began a long musical journey. Despite the hard rehearsals, he never gave up because music was his dream and his salvation.
After years of hard work, Jackson finally ushered in the peak of his career. At the age of 24, he released a solo album that sold 66 million copies, setting an unprecedented record. Two years later, he chose to go solo and began his legendary music career. His songs are melodic and his dance moves are unique, and every performance makes the audience go crazy. His influence is not limited to the music industry, but also extends to the rest of the world.
However, behind the glamorous appearance, Jackson is also under tremendous pressure. His skin problems have attracted a lot of attention from the outside world, and some people have even rumored that he has undergone skin bleaching. But this is not the case, Jackson actually has vitiligo, which is an incurable disease. To protect his skin, he had to wear long sleeves and pants for a long time, even on hot summer days. This kind of pain and helplessness may only be able to be experienced by himself.
In addition to the troubles caused by the disease, Jackson also experienced a "child molestation incident" that caused a sensation around the world. The incident dealt a huge blow to his reputation and career. But fortunately, his father has always stood by his side, testifying for him and setting the record straight. In the end, Jackson succeeded in clearing his name, but his heart was deeply hurt.
Despite all the setbacks and tribulations, Jackson never gave up his love and yearning for Chinese culture. In his music career, he has repeatedly mentioned his love for Chinese culture and expressed his deep affection for the Chinese people. In fact, he has also held concerts in Taiwan, China, sharing his music and passion with local audiences.
When asked by a Japanese reporter why he did not hold a concert in Chinese mainland, Jackson's answer was full of wisdom and emotion. He subtly mentioned his performance experience in Taiwan, which not only avoided possible international disputes, but also expressed his respect and love for Chinese culture. This answer not only shows his high emotional intelligence and resourceful coping ability, but also reflects his deep affection for the Chinese people.
Today, Michael Jackson is gone, but his music and spirit are forever in people's hearts. His songs are still sung and loved by countless people, and his dance moves are still imitated and learned by countless people. His life is full of legends and touching stories, which we can't help but be moved and emotional.
