In his later years, Cai Lan recalled that his favorite issue of "Tonight Is Not Fortified" was the interview with Zhang Guorong.
The reason for this is naturally not because Zhang Guorong is the most famous, nor is it out of selfishness (how well Cai Lan himself performs), but this issue is most in line with the main theme of the show: "no defense".
In the past, in order to let the guests break the news, Huang Xia also had to set up sets everywhere and provoke words. While it may seem interesting, it is actually medium.
But this time, everyone seems to be reunited as old friends, talking about everything, which is really a masterpiece in the show.
No wonder, at the end, even Ni Kuang couldn't help but say: "This boy is really cute!" ”
Not pretentious, not manneristic, the brother's frank personality not only made the audience addicted, but also won the admiration of the three big men.
The crowd applauded his brother
Perhaps this is Zhang Guorong's way of dealing with the world, if you want to hold it, with your own fame, you can refuse the invitation to the program, since you have come, you must do "no defense".
Therefore, the brother wore jeans, T-shirts, and stepped on tennis shoes to the recording site, which can be described as casual.
Later, the radio was embarrassed first, feeling too "undefended", so he temporarily found a suit for Zhang Guorong to wear.
Therefore, in the show, Ni Kuang has always talked about wearing jeans. Cai Lan may have come late and didn't see it. Zhang Guorong joked:
"If you come a minute early, you'll see clips on the side of your pants, and the stapler is booked (clothes are temporarily available)."
Subsequently, everyone talked about Zhang Guorong's family situation. Zhang Guorong gives people the feeling that he has always been a rich man.
But in the show, the brother revealed that his family environment is not good enough to live at the top of the mountain, which is considered to be middle and high.
However, only the father has money, there are many sisters in the family, and he does not have money.
When I went to study in the UK, I also went as a poor student and studied very steadily.
During the holidays, because the ticket was too expensive, they did not dare to return to Hong Kong. I had to go to Fu Sheng's sister's restaurant as a bartender and work part-time to earn money. (Zhang Guorong's family and Fu Sheng's family are family friends.) ）
Later, Zhang Guorong's father was paralyzed, and after his brother dropped out of school and returned to Hong Kong, he sold shoes in Happy Valley for a month and then sold jeans for two weeks. Life was once in a slump.
Even the registration fee for Li's TV to participate in the singing competition was given to him by the family maid "Sixth Sister".
The registration fee was 5 yuan, and the sixth sister gave him 20 yuan. Zhang Guorong was deeply impressed by this incident.
Huang Xia replied from the side, and even the taxi money was given. Zhang Guorong hurriedly said, No, how could I take a taxi at that time.
"Take the tram to Central, then take the Star Ferry across the sea, and then take the bus to the radio station of Dow Lee."
Zhang Guorong and the "Sixth Sister"
Zhang Guorong went to participate in the singing competition, originally pulled by a classmate, and as a result, the classmate was eliminated in the preliminary round, but Zhang Guorong rushed all the way to the final and won the second place.
Recalling the preliminary round of that year, my brother said bluntly that I had just sung six or seven sentences, and the judges began to "ding" me, and I did not hold out any hope.
Huang Xia, who has been a judge of several singing competitions, said from the side:
You sang six or seven sentences before "ding" you, it is already great, usually those mouths are "ding" down.
After the game, Zhang Guorong signed li's TV with a remuneration of 1,000 yuan.
Zhang Guorong was still happy when he talked about this matter, "I quickly and without hesitation agreed, and developed." ”
After a thousand yuan, Zhang Guorong first went to the radio station to rent a 500 yuan house.
After Huang Xia listened, he laughed and said, "What a loser! ”
Taking half of the income to rent a house is indeed a very luxurious thing. Zhang Guorong explained that on the one hand, because the company requires artists not to take buses or trams, taxis are too expensive.
On the other hand, it stems from the fact that he is very fond of his family and cares about where he lives.
"Food, clothing, shelter and transportation", Zhang Guorong put "living" in the first place.
Later, with the increase of popularity, the honorarium also rose from 1000 yuan to 2950 yuan. Huang Xia joked on the side, is it necessary to rent a house in 1950?
Zhang Guorong said that I immediately changed a house of 1,000 yuan. Huang Xia laughed:
"No, really, I guessed you're a fader." Leslie, I've really convinced you! ”
Ni Kuang saw that Zhang Guorong cared so much about the house, and couldn't help asking, what kind of house do you live in now?
Huang Xia interjected, his current house is really powerful. It's 500 multiplied by an unknown number of times. His house is worth at least more than $5 million.
Ni Kuang asked how much area, and his brother replied: "More than three thousand feet", and the crowd was surprised after hearing it: "Why live so big?" ”
Zhang Guorong said, I have also asked a lot of friends, they all said that sleeping, four feet to five feet is enough, seven feet is enough, what is the use of being so big.
Huang Xia did not agree after listening, if so, everyone slept in the coffin, those people are too stupid. Zhang Guorong also believes that living big is a kind of enjoyment.
Subsequently, Huang Xia asked about his brother's feelings, and he had to ask it from the first time.
Zhang Guorong did not mind this, and said frankly: "The first time was when I was 21 years old. ”
Thinking back to the girl, my brother still remembers it vividly, saying that the girl was a sports type, liked to run, and had long hair, and when she ran, her hair was long and fluttering.
"At that time, I chased for a long time, and I didn't write back, which was not very promising." Later, I returned to Hong Kong from England and found, eh, OK. Then let's go to Macau together..."
After recalling the first time and talking about his current feelings, Zhang Guorong was disappointed and said that it was too difficult to shoot now, and it was difficult to find an object.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Guorong said that he would never drag with insiders, he had tried it before, but it did not work. Because the vanity of insiders is too strong.
Huang Xia said, very normal, if you are not vain, you will not accept the audience's clapping.
Zhang Guorong continued, many people ask me why I don't shoot drag, on the one hand, too pure love girl, I think I will owe her a lot, because I am no longer pure love.
On the other hand, very rich girls, I feel that I can't climb high.
So, it's really hard to find the right person. I don't know if it was because of these reasons that my brother's later orientation changed.
Ni Kuang is most interested in the process of artists becoming famous, and the guests will be asked this question by Ni Kuang.
Ni Kuang said: "Hong Kong people have a mantra, saying that Zhang Guorong has survived for ten years, has there been 10 years? ”
Zhang Guorong said, "8 years." "In those difficult years, my brother said that ordinary things, swallow the gas, forget it, but there are three things that make him most unhappy.
Once at the "Jinge Golden Song", the awards party of the Jinge Golden Song will notify the winners one week in advance, because there is a rehearsal. The brother did not receive the notice and still attended the support.
After the end, Huang Xia went to see Rowan with Zhang Guorong, and although Rowan won the award, he was dissatisfied because he only got a golden song, so he did not attend.
Rowan sang on stage in Haicheng, and Zhang Guorong burst into tears as he listened below.
My brother said he felt so small at the time.
Even if you take one song, or half a song, at least there is a prize to be taken, but you have not gone. I wanted to win the prize, but I attended without notice, but in the end I didn't get anything.
Another time in Li, a big open performance, Zhang Guorong shaved a bald head because of the filming of the "Great Inner Qunying Sequel", and had to wear a naval hat during the performance.
Unexpectedly, halfway through the singing, the hat was blown to the stage by the wind. The brother said that at that time, there was a lot of boos when he first took the stage, and after the hat flew out, there was in addition to boos and scolding.
The hat that flew to the stage was picked up by the audience and thrown back on the stage, making Zhang Guorong very unable to get off the stage.
After returning home, I received a message from the angry green audience: "You close the file, please read more books, are you afraid or not embarrassed." ”
Zhang Guorong said that he was really sad at that time and cried for a long time.
The third and most powerful one was after my brother became famous.
At that time, he had already won two golden songs in the "Golden Song of Jinge", in addition to "The Love of the Year", there was also the Golden Melody Gold Award "Who Resonates".
At that time, at the peak of the "Tan Zhang Struggle", Zhang Guorong took two golden songs, and Tan Yonglin had three, but Tan Yonglin did not attend in Australia.
The rules at that time, no matter how big the coffee, if you don't attend, the grand finale: the Golden Melody Gold Award, there is no share.
Because my brother attended, he picked up a leak and picked up the grand finale, which caused dissatisfaction from the audience: "As soon as it was introduced, it was booed into a dog."
Zhang Guorong said that at that time, I thought, either I will endure this matter, after singing this song, I will go backstage, or, I will pay tribute to you with a foul mouth, of course, I still chose the former.
Finally, when Cao Guangrong (a politician) and Xu Guanwen presented awards to Zhang Guorong, the audience was still scolding "XX Rong, XX Rong".
Xu Guanwen saved the scene: "Who are you talking about, Cao Guangrong?" Is Cao Guangrong so famous? "Xu Guanwen is worthy of being a master of comedy.
Zhang Guorong finally concluded that he liked two sentences in "Prison Storm" the most:
"Bear with it for a while, the wind and waves are calm, take a step back, the sea and the sky." I have to say that my brother's personality is really too good.
Huang Called Zhang Guorong "The Prince of the Flying World".
This was originally written by Sima Qian's praise for Pingyuan Jun, and Liang Yusheng had used it to describe Nalan Rongruo, and now it was borrowed by Huang Xia to describe Zhang Guorong, which was simply the most appropriate.
