Recently, the 63-year-old old artist Chi Zhiqiang once again caused controversy and was questioned by netizens about his poor character.
For young audiences, "Chi Zhiqiang" is a relatively unfamiliar name, but the post-80s generation will definitely remember him vividly. At the end of the 1980s, "prison songs" were once popular in society, and the most popular songs such as "Tears in the Iron Window", "Thirteen No Relatives", "Banknotes" and so on were Chi Zhiqiang's "lead singer".
Chi Zhiqiang's special experience, combined with the lyrics of regret and sincerity, made the album "Tears of The Iron Window" a big hit, and young people rushed to buy it.
On the one hand, people are touched by the melody, on the other hand, they are also satisfied with the "hunting" mentality, wanting to see what happened to this big star who was imprisoned for "hooliganism" in prison.
In the 1970s, as the "outside air" gradually "blew in", a rather bad trend of thought spread in China, and "excessive freedom" flooded among minorities, especially showbiz stars and rich second generations.
Chi Zhiqiang is one of them. In 1982, he was seconded to Nanjing Studio to shoot "The Moon to the Mid-Autumn Festival", and he met a mysterious "big sister" in his spare time. It was under the lure of the "big sister" that Chi Zhiqiang came into contact with the veneer dance and maintained improper relations with many women.
In 1983, the Nanjing Public Security Bureau issued an arrest warrant, Chi Zhiqiang was arrested and imprisoned for 4 years, and Chi Zhiqiang was released from prison early in 1985.
After his release from prison, Chi Zhiqiang returned to the Changchun Film Studio, but his life was very different from the past, and he could only do rough work such as repairing the roof and sewers.
In 1987, that all changed. The publication of "Tears in the Iron Window" made Chi Zhiqiang quickly popular, and his fame even far exceeded that before he was imprisoned, and his acting career completely entered the peak. From the late 1980s to the mid-1990s, Chi Zhiqiang made a lot of money by going around with this album.
Recently, Chi Zhiqiang opened an account on a platform to share the beginning and end of the "hooliganism" incident, and mentioned the publication of "Tears in the Iron Window" on May 8, which immediately caused a huge controversy.
Chi Zhiqiang said that the tape of "Tears of Iron Window" was recorded by him!
I thought that Chi Zhiqiang would return the real original singer's innocence, but he did not expect that he chose to continue to lie, which is really regrettable. Chi Zhiqiang said that he often hummed "iron door, iron window, iron chain, hand holding the iron window to look out", which means that this album is not only sung by him, but also created by him.
This is not the case at all. The album "Tears in the Iron Window" Chi Zhiqiang only read one or two albums, and the real original author and lead singer is singer Zhai Huimin. When the Changchun Studio recorded the album, it took into account Chi Zhiqiang's special experience and thought that the tape under his banner could sell well, so it "erased" the real singer Zhai Huimin.
At first, Zhai Huimin did not mind, in 1989 Chi Zhiqiang North Body Open Concert Zhai Huimin also went to the scene to watch. But later, I felt more and more aggrieved, and in 2005, I finally told the truth in "Lu Yu Has a Date": Those prisoner songs were sung by me!
But Zhai Huimin spoke softly, and no one believed it at all. After that, Zhou Yaping, the producer of "Tears in the Iron Window", sent a long response, saying that those songs were indeed sung by Zhai Huimin, and finally returned his "innocence".
Now the album cover of "Tears in the Iron Window" has been revised, clearly marking Chi Zhiqiang's narration and Zhai Huimin's singing:
In fact, there is no need for others to confirm, just listen to the two people's singing to know who sang, Chi Zhiqiang is still singing or incomplete.
But it is a pity that Chi Zhiqiang has never responded to this matter, and now he is more openly lying that he wrote the song and that he sang it, which is simply intolerable.
Now that the entertainment industry has long passed the "grassy era", plagiarism is shameful, fake singing is intolerable, and lying is even more impossible.
A lie for 37 years, 63 years old still don't tell the truth, the face is gone?
Of course, Chi Zhiqiang's move can also be "understood", after all, people have a professional team, and now they want to make a lot of money by opening live streams with goods, and naturally do not allow the emergence of "stains".
