In 1973, when Li Quan was only four years old, he began practicing the piano in a devilish manner for eight hours a day.
He was so desperate, not because he was obsessed with music, but to keep his Shanghai hukou.
At that time, Li Quan's family was sent to Guiyang to work because of the "bad composition".
Li Quan, who was still young, had not yet had time to remember the appearance of his parents, so he could only rely on his grandmother for his life.
If he wants to stay in Shanghai, Li Quan's only hope is to take the "Shanghai Music Elementary School".
In this way, under the supervision of his grandmother, Li Quan began to practice the piano like crazy.
In the alley opposite Wuyuan Road, Li Quan's piano sounded melodious, and people passing by would ask: Whose child played it?
Sure enough, Li Quan bounced into the school and popped up.
In those years, in children's piano competitions across the country, Li Quan won the prize and won the soft hand.
But God's gift to Li Quan soon cost him.
Long-term closed practice, catalyzed by talent and handsomeness, quickly bore the fruit of rebellion.
During that time, Li Quan simply threw away the piano and either went to the song hall with his classmates to fool around, or flirted with beautiful girls.
In Li Quan's words: "When I was a teenager, all the bad things were done. ”
At that time, in school, students could only play classical music taught by their teachers, but Li Quan wanted to play the songs he had created.
At this time, Li Quan hated music, because music took away his childhood.
In 1983, in the "Shangyin Attached Middle School", Li Quan heard popular songs from Hong Kong and Taiwan through his Hong Kong classmates.
Tracking down Tam Wing Lin, Lin ZiXiang and Chen Baiqiang, he touched on rock, electronics and jazz abroad.
Under the impact of popular music, Li Quan was like a fan.
If the practice was boring, he would sneak a few minutes of pop songs.
In that tight day, Li Quan also learned to form a band with others, but named it "Black Bat".
This band also passed into the ears of the teacher Jacky Lee, who admired Li Quan very much and wanted to help the "black bat".
However, Li Quan was doomed to have no band life, and the seven or eight bands he later formed did not survive.
That year, Curran was still called Zhong Haohao, and she inherited the family's spondylitis and asthma, and was diagnosed by doctors as not living to be 30 years old.
No one expected that Ke Lan would not only live past the age of 30, but also create a myth of a golden child and a jade girl with Li Quan.

In 1990, Li Quan received an acceptance letter from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music.
At that time, the piano department he applied for only 5 people, and Li Quan's professional course results were the first.
If nothing else, Li Quan will graduate with honors in Shangyin and then stay in school as a teacher.
However, this stable road is doomed to not be able to tie li quan.
At that time, Zhang Peiren of Rolling Stone Records crossed the ocean to Beijing to listen to a rock music performance.
That scene directly frightened Zhang Peiren, who turned out to have such passionate music in the mainland.
Soon, he returned to Taiwan, asked his boss for orders, and set up a subsidiary to focus on mainland music.
In 1991, Zhang Peiren took the producer Jia Minshu and began to recruit singers under the banner of "Magic Rock Culture".
It didn't take long for him to set his sights on Dou Wei of the Black Panther Band, Zhang Chu of the Stinger Band, and He Yong of The Land Records.
After signing a contract with these three rock geniuses, Zhang Peiren also wanted to find a group of more musical talents, so he moved to Shanghai.
At that time, Li Quan, a sophomore, was singing in a bar to earn living expenses.
Unexpectedly, his singing made Zhang Peiren on the stage call out to Tianlai, and he took out the contract and signed Li Quan on the spot.
Later, Zhang Peiren also recruited Ding Wei, He Xuntian and others, and prepared to lead the two teams of "China Fire" and "China Sea" to encircle and suppress the music scene in the mainland.
In 1994, Dou Wei, Zhang Chu and He Yong of "China Fire" released albums one after another, and instantly became popular all over the country.
Zhang Peiren was overjoyed and pushed the "Magic Rock Three Jie", while the "China Sea" was shelved.
In this way, Before Li Quan could emerge, he became an "orphan on the Bund."
Li Quan, who could not wait for the release of the film, could only go behind the scenes.
The Rolling Stone Records of that year coincided with the blowout period created by Li Zongsheng and successfully pushed Xin Xiaoqi, Lin Yilian, Karen Mok and Jin Zhijuan onto the altar.
And Li Quan, who played the piano well, also entered Li Zongsheng's eyes.
Under the support of Brother Li, Li Quan helped Zhang Aijia to accompany him and help Lin Yilian write songs.
At that time, Lin Yilian was exploring the Japanese market, and the invited teams were all top producers in Japan and Hong Kong, while Li Quan, a hairy boy, wrote "Dahao", and Lin Yilian accepted the album "Open Up" as soon as she heard it.
Just when Li Quan thought he was going to survive, God gave him another painful blow.
03
In 1995, "Magic Rock Three Masters" has opened concerts in Hong Kong.
Looking at them who had both fame and fortune, Li Quan was jealous in his heart.
He and Zhang Peiren were deadlocked, and finally got the opportunity to publish a record.
This year, Li Quan took root in the recording studio, pulling the producer Jia Minshu to waste sleep and forget to eat.
More than half a year later, his "Shanghai Dream" was successfully released.
Everyone thought that this time, Li Quan should be on fire.
As a result, at this time, the "magic rock culture" has withdrawn from the mainland and become Taiwan's "magic rock record".
Zhang Peiren, who was unable to do so, simply did not have the energy to help Li Quan propagate.
In this way, even though "Shanghai Dream" is widely acclaimed in the industry, it still sells dismal.
Disheartened, Li Quan turned around and ran to Hong Kong to participate in the "Shanghai-Hong Kong-Guangdong Rookie Selection Competition".
Unexpectedly, Li Quan easily got the runner-up.
Competing with him were 21-year-olds Eason Chan and Miriam Yeung, who came down from the arena and entered the Huaxing Records that won the popular Zheng Xiuwen.
However, this game did not change Li Quan's fate, but it led him a red line.
At that time, Li Quan came down from the arena and met the program host Ke Lan.
The 23-year-old Ke Lan, under the support of Tao Zhe's cousin Tao Junwei, is already the first generation of Asian VJ host of Channel V.
Talking about personality and dressing stylishly, many people regard Curran as a goddess.
However, such a Ke Lan, Li Quan did not feel cold at all, only felt that she was chattering and noisy.
And the dull and boring Li Quan made Ke Lan even more uninterested.
In the same year, Ke Lan met 24-year-old Li Yapeng at a party.
Under the chase of "love field master" Li Yapeng, Ke Lan quickly fell into his love sea.
At this point, it is 5 years since the fate of Li Quan and Ke Lan fermented.

In 1996, Zhang Peiren hastily returned to Taiwan with the "Magic Rock".
With He Yong banned from acting, Zhang Chu quit the Beijing rock circle, and Dou Wei chose to be silent, the myth of "Three Masters of Magic Rock" was only a flash in the pan after all.
However, at this time, the most embarrassing is Li Quan, while the album can not sell, while Zhang Peiren signed Zhang Zhenyue, Wu Bai, Yang Naiwen, Chen Qizhen and other newcomers.
Later, these newcomers burst into flames, and even the producer Jia Minshu was canonized.
However, Li Quan had less luck.
Standing at the crossroads, he can only help people write songs to make a living.
At that time, from Zhou Bingqian, Huang Gexuan to Du Dewei, they were all singing Li Quan's songs.
But the beauty of adulthood is not Li Quan's original intention after all.
In 1997, he simply quit his job as a teacher and concentrated on preparing the album.
He has integrated so many years of thinking and emotions about music into a "heart world".
But "Magic Rock" is trying to win the newcomers, where to take care of Li Quan in the corner.
In this way, Li Quan's second album hit the street again.
Li Quan, who was devastated, was eager to leave Shanghai and give up music, even if he changed careers.
On the other side, Ke Lan has been poached by the Phoenix Platform, and Xu Gehui and Chen Luyu have become the "Three Sisters of the Phoenix".
Subsequently, Ke Lan sent her boyfriend Li Yapeng to Hong Kong Tang Ren Company.
Later, Li Yapeng officially made a name in the entertainment industry with a "Carry Love to the End".
Personable, he attracted many little girls, one of whom was Qu Ying.
Li Yapeng's whirlpool of scandals has created opportunities for the stories of Ke Lan and Li Quan.
However, at this time, Li Quan hit Fan Xiaoxuan's heart first.
05
In 1997, Li Quan took the band around the cave, and in a bar, he happened to run into Fan Xiaoxuan, who came to play.
After watching Li Quan's performance, she was so excited that she slapped the table: This is the music I want!
At that time, Fan Xiaoxuan, with the label of "Little Witch", was hot in the Taiwanese music scene.
But she didn't like the label at all, and she hated the company's business operations.
In this way, two depressed musicians, feeling sorry for each other, at first sight.
The next year, Fan Xiaoxuan completely threw away the image of "Health Song", cut her head, and prepared the album "Darling".
Li Quan saw that Fan Xiaoxuan's transformation was not easy, and personally wrote "Blue Qipao" and "Crying" for her.
In 1999, the cooperation between Fan Xiaoxuan and Fumao Records came to an end, and she was eager to draw a satisfactory end.
Therefore, she called out to Li Quan to handle the knife again.
At that time, Li Quan was inspired on the plane and wrote a song "I want us to be together".
Fan Xiaoxuan listened, cheered, and quickly included it as the album's title song.
In the end, the song successfully helped Fan Xiaoxuan transform into a female creator.
However, this year, what is more exciting than the song is the scandal between Li Quan and Fan Xiaoxuan.
Every time "I Want Us Together" rings, the relationship between the two is discussed once.
But before the scandal could come true, Curran took the lead.
In 2000, Ke Lan filmed "The Head of the Family" in Shanghai, but he was really bored in the crew.
So, she went through her address book and wanted to find friends to come out and get together.
As a result, she ghostly asked Li Quan to come out for coffee.
Unexpectedly, that afternoon, the two had a hot conversation.
The seed that was 5 years ago took root and sprouted quietly.
Under the nourishment of love, Li Quan released his third album "Tightrope Walker".
This album made him famous in Taiwan, and he was about to turn the tables against the wind.
As a result, fate dealt him another fatal blow.
06
That year, Li Quan was preparing to take advantage of the chase, and the company suddenly informed him that the new album did not need to be done.
In Taiwan at that time, the situation was turbulent, and the "above" strictly restricted the publicity of mainland artists.
Eggs can't touch the stones, and Li Quan can only leave Taipei.
After Li Quan left, the wave of the Internet and the rampant piracy made rolling stones unable to make ends meet.
Soon, the company that had swept Taiwan for a decade could only become a slave to commerce.
In the chaos, the "Magic Rock" was dissolved, Zhang Peiren left, and Li Zongsheng and Lin Yilian also found another way out.
Since then, the era that belongs to the Rolling Stones has completely turned the page, along with Li Quan's dream of superstardom.
In 2001, Li Quan retired to BGM, and in the face of all kinds of obstacles, he still released his fourth album "Island Center".
But this album still can't sell, Li Quan is in a dilemma, extremely anxious, fortunately Ke Lan is with him day and night.
Li Quan was touched and wrote the song "The Home of Love" with deep affection.
This year, Li Quan was 32 years old, his career did not progress, and he wanted to become a family.
But he and Curran are too busy, and if they want to stabilize, they must have one side to sacrifice.
Li Quan proposed to let Ke Lan be a full-time wife, and Ke Lanning, who had always been strong, would not comply.
In this way, the gap between the two gradually arose, laying the groundwork for the end of the story.
In 2003, Li Quan read Zhang Xiaoxian's "Stray Dogs in Thoughts", and suddenly became inspired to write a poem "Stray Dogs" with a big stroke of a pen.
Originally, Li Quan planned to complete the song alone, but he encountered a problem in the Rap part.
So, he thought of Fan Xiaoxuan again.
Fan Xiaoxuan, who was too busy to be busy, agreed without even thinking about it.
In the end, this song became the last song of Li Quan and Fan Xiaoxuan.
It was also at this time that the scandal between the two men once again caused an uproar.
The rumors spread more and more outrageously, and even said that Fan Xiaoxuan "dedicated herself" to Li Quan.
These wind-catching news make people see it in the clouds.
However, at that time, Li Quan did not have the heart to care about these things, and he was busy preparing for the fifth album.
Li Quan originally named the album "2057", but the company was afraid of slow sales, so he changed it to "2046", rubbing a wave of wong kar-wai movie popularity.
Just when Li Quan was struggling in the recording studio day and night, Ke Lan quietly put a "hat" on him.
07
In 2004, Ke Lan fell in love with Geng Le in "Thrilling Shennongjia" and fell in love from the play to the outside of the play.
In this way, Geng Le and Kong Lin's "seven-year itch" came to an end.
But what is more exciting than this news is that at the film conference, Curran pointed out that the filming destroyed the original ecology.
Good guy, the investor took her directly to court and claimed 2 million.
For a time, Curran was pushed to the forefront.
On the other side, Li Quan disappeared after releasing his sixth album "The Little Girl Who Drew Matches".
Rumors have spread that he and Curran are secretly married.
In fact, Li Quan went to run a school.
That year, he personally wrote the textbook and wanted every child to learn the piano happily.
However, "Quan Yin Tang" still lost to "piano examination fever".
Soon, Li Quan got up from the quagmire and planned to continue to start a business.
As a result, MBOX's music company came into being, bringing together Zhao Wei, Zhong Hanliang and Dai Jun and others in one go.
At the same time, Li Quan also pocketed the fledgling Li Ronghao.
At that time, Neither Na Ying nor Han Hong was optimistic about Zhao Wei.
But Li Quan made an "Angel Suitcase" for her, which won the Best Album of the Year award.
Zhao Wei, who was proud of the spring breeze, simply recognized Li Quan as a righteous brother.
However, the brothers and sisters held hands at the fashion party, which could not help but make people think otherwise.
It was 2007, and Li Quan and Ke Lan's relationship had come to an end.
Later, Curran became popular with "The Right Way in the World is Vicissitudes", and quickly fell with that uncontrollable mouth.
And Li Quan, who is middle-aged, is becoming more and more attractive, and it is inevitable that peach blossoms will blossom.
This year, Zhu Zhu, who hosted the music program out of the circle, threw himself into Li Quan's door.
She took the scandal with Jay Chou, and Li Quanqing and me.
Under the escort of Li Quan, Zhu Zhu quickly released his self-titled album.
At that time, the outside world was rumored that the two had met their parents, and good things were near.
But this album, in the ever-changing Chinese music scene, did not stir up a little splash after all.
Later, Li Quan's company drowned in the entrepreneurial army, and Zhu Zhu also changed careers to become an actor.
As for the rumors, they were all scattered in the wind and no one cared.
In 2012, the 43-year-old Li Quan returned to the audience's attention with the album "Genius and Dust".
He laughed at himself, sang to himself, asked himself, and the artist finally fell into the world.
In the years since then, Li Quan has been in various music variety shows, and his popularity has been bullish.
Beside him, there was no Ke Lan, no Zhu Zhu, but he had two or three scandals with Huang Ling.
Today, 52-year-old Li Quan, after all the dust settled, suddenly announced the child.
In the rolling red dust, a generation of music craftsmen, after all, still belong to the fireworks of the world.
And his past events with Ke Lan, Fan Xiaoxuan and Zhu Zhu were scattered in the end of the world and submerged in the sea of people.
