Zhang Aijia and Li Xueqin recorded a program together, and the two were encountered by passers-by at a street stall in Sanlitun.
The young girl pointed at them and said excitedly, "Aaaah, you are the one... Li Xueqin!!"
This program is called "Remembering Youth", and the audience who came in the name of Mu Zhang Aijia probably laughed at this scene - the times have really changed, and Zhang Aijia, who has played with music and movies for half a century and personally experienced the cultural events of the two sides of the Strait and the three places, will one day be less famous to young people.
Zhang Aijia was not surprised by this, she happily cooperated with young people to take photos and listen to young people's understanding of intergenerational relations.
Li Xueqin said that on the first day of being sent by her parents to study abroad in high school, she cried and said that she missed her mother.
Zhang Aijia immediately thought that when she sent her 13-year-old son to the United States to study, the child was about to cry, Zhang Aijia was afraid that she would change her mind because she couldn't bear it, so she turned around and left.
Later, she was trapped in the worry, and the child's crying red eyes were quickly changed color by the fresh environment.
Li Xueqin wiped her eyes and smiled when she heard it, saying that she was crying on the front foot, and she was happy again when she had a new friend on the back foot.
The guests of that episode were all Li Xueqin's peers.
Zhang Aijia followed Li Xueqin to Live House to watch the performance, Zhang Aijia asked Li Xueqin if she could jump, Li Xueqin said that she had always only stood in the corner to watch others jump.
Zhang Aijia said, I love to jump.
The young band lead singer on the stage is cool, but when he leaves the stage, he and Zhang Aijia are soft and exposing the worries of distant parents.
There are also young supermodels, opening their notebooks and reading their luck in the industry, and the pain of being pulled to the flesh when they are pressed by the staff to pull the zipper of their skirts backstage.
They told her about the confusion of being wrapped up in the aesthetics of the times, sharing the loneliness of leaving their hometown, and telling the warmth from friends.
People who like slow variety shows, or like Zhang Aijia, can definitely feel the charm of this show.
It allows two generations of different generations to stay together and chat and read poetry, and the wonderful thing is that you can feel the modernity of the current era in the young people's discourse, but you can't feel zhang Aijia's age.
Only when Zhang Aijia hears young people talk about science fiction and talk about new music, reverse Amway "There are many good songs in our time", you will be confused, how old is Zhang Aijia?
She's 68.
The hairstyle has not changed, the body shape has not changed.
<h2>02</h2>
In her 20s, Zhang Aijia was a girl in Qiong Yao dramas, a vase in the world of Hu Jinquan's martial arts, and then she pulled Luo Dayou into the Rolling Stones to make an album together. Then he shot the Hong Kong New Wave masterpiece, became a director himself, trained Rene Liu and Li Xinjie, went north to play with the fifth generation of directors, and fell in love with young people in the drama of the sixth generation of directors.
Half a century has passed, and her peers Lin Qingxia have become the classic images in the golden age cut, her apprentices have become the predecessors of others, she has passed the years, and in the youth that others are burning, there are several more youths.
In "Remembering Youth", Liu Reuying said that she was in a very poor state for a while, feeling as if she was constantly swimming, while Sister Zhang was chasing after her.
Zhang Aijia said, I can't swim.
Zhang Aijia can't swim, but she has been pushing Liu Rene.
At the age of 18, Zhang Aijia received a call from director Ding Shanxi, asking her to play the female number one of "Eight Hundred Heroes", on the condition that she learn to swim. As a result, Zhang Aijia's plan to practice swimming had not yet been put on the agenda, and China Film considered that she was not as attractive as Lin Qingxia at the box office, so it replaced her.
Later, Zhang Aijia only played a supporting role in "Eight Hundred Heroes", but he did not expect to be favored by Ke Junxiong, acted in "My Grandfather", and won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress.
Nobles and opportunities paved the way for Zhang Aijia in her youth, and later became a director, and Ang Lee took the script of "Girl Fishing" to Zhang Aijia, and she instinctively became a noble person in other people's youth.
That other person was Rene Liu.
When Rene Liu first entered the Rolling Stones, she wanted to release her first record in three years, but she didn't look good and would blush when she spoke.
Zhang Aijia used her in the case of no one optimistic about Rene Liu, Xiaoyu made Rene Liu's first film queen, and Zhang Aijia witnessed every period of Rene Liu's transition from a vegetarian to a star.
Zhang Aijia, who loves to talk about love, witnessed Rene Liu's love brain, and received a phone call long after Rene Liu left her, only listening to Rene Liu's tone, she judged that Rene Liu was going to get married.
Liu Ruoying's road, Zhang Aijia have walked through it, when she was in her 30s, the "Little Li" Li Zongsheng in her mouth wrote "The Price of Love" to her, Zhang Aijia was vulgar at first, Li Zongsheng said, this song is sung by others, Zhang Aijia can't sing.
In real life, she has also tasted the "price of love".
When her peers burned their youth and married into the rich, she went in and out of the marriage, but never gave up on her career.
At that time, it was inappropriate to show her face after marrying, and today, Zhang Aijia loves to talk about love, drink, and the most important style of loving to engage in career is actually youth.
<h2>03</h2>
In addition to being deeply involved in the youth of others, the key to Zhang Aijia's ability to navigate generations lies in the precious understanding of people given to her by time.
In "Remembering Youth", Zhang Aijia asked Zhou Huajian to read the lyrics written in the early days, "In the Eye Sockets".
Halfway through the reading, another voice appeared on the scene, and Zhou Huajian thought it was a young boy, until the lyrics were finished, and the young boy walked from behind the scenes to the front of the stage - it was his son.
Letting children get close to their father's youth is the first surprise that Zhang Aijia prepared for Zhou Huajian.
But when it comes to youth, being observed by future generations is secondary, and returning to the old dream is the main theme.
Zhang Aijia and Zhou Huajian went to the old record store in Taipei, and the owner's treasure collection was from their hands. Zhou Huajian picked up Zhang Aijia's 1981 vinyl, which contained Luo Dayou's "Childhood" and "The Story of Time" written to Zhang Aijia, when Luo Dayou's main business was still a doctor, and the yellowed disc sealed Zhang Aijia's face was extremely childish.
Participating in witnessing the youth of others, achieving a multidimensional understanding of the world, returning to the context of their own youth, two people in their 60s are only left with laughter about the years.
They relive the appearance of youth very happily, diluting the years, so that people are not afraid of aging.
Zhang Aijia asked Zhou Huajian about his pop music enlightenment, and Zhou Huajian talked about Li Jianfu, saying that "Descendants of the Dragon" had the deepest influence on him in the early days, and it was the first vinyl he bought.
At that time, I learned that Li Jianfu's cover was filmed at Tamsui University, and I deliberately went to look for it. Unfortunately, the punch failed, and the red wall and pillar on the cover were not found.
Zhou Huajian took Zhang Aijia to the park where he remembered when he first arrived in Taiwan, and the two of them sat in the park to recall the shock brought to them by Beatles' youth.
Zhou Huajian was immersed in memories, taken to the Confucius Temple by Zhang Aijia, and searched for nowhere cover memories in his youth, which were all in front of him.
Zhang Aijia pushed open the red door, BGM "Descendants of the Dragon" sounded, Zhou Huajian was excited incoherently, he said that he must go to the pillar where Li Jianfu stood to learn Li Jianfu posed pose to take photos.
Hey, it turns out that the hearts of fans chasing idols have not changed in the century.
This is not to mention, Zhou Huajian, who has been knocked unconscious by youth, looked at Zhang Aijia's hand, and Li Jianfu on the cover was wearing clothes that were similar to those of that year, and was walking towards him.
Tearful eyes.
Then, Zhou Huajian said incoherently, "Hello, you look a lot like a person."
Li Jianfu said, "Hello, I am Li Jianfu."
Zhou Huajian leaned back excitedly, Ah! A handful of age, star chasing success!
That look of excitement, almost true, is something that can only be had in the years of youth.
Then, under the mediation of Zhang Aijia, Li Jianfu taught Zhou Huajian to pose, the shutter flashed, and what was fixed was their middle-aged or older, and it was also their dusty youth.
<h2>04</h2>
Zhang Aijia talked about youth, and did not leave youth on the surface of "for giving new words to force me to worry".
Her guests are sometimes young people, Li Xueqin, who is cool and has an attitude, Zhou Shen, Who is partial to literature and art, Liu Tongjin Haosen, and Wutiao, who is anti-routine.
She understands their relationship with their parents and the city, opens up their teenage years, walks into their hometowns, and dismantles the current "youth" aspects.
She asked her colleague Zhou Huajian, the younger generation Liu Ruoying, it is said that there is Huang Yunling in the follow-up, and the younger generations have gathered together, and they have not forgotten to explore the youth of the elders. Huang Yongyu, 92, was her guest.
From the post-90s to the post-90s, this youth poetry meeting can actually be regarded as a typical slice of the various eras of contemporary Chinese youth history. Zhang Aijia's life always seems to focus on the present, but the threshold is never limited to the present. The youth in her eyes is always ongoing, life is not at any point in time, with limitations, it gradually reduces its connection with the world.
She had been trying to go deeper.
This kind of in-depth is not only in Zhang Aijia' body.
In the summer of 2021, at the same time as Zhang Aijia's "Remembering Youth", the 67-year-old Luo Dayou won the Golden Melody Award Special Contribution Award.
At the award ceremony, Huang Yunling, chairman of the Taipei Pop Music Center, nodded, and the juniors took turns on the stage to perform Luo Dayou's classic songs, "Lukang Town", "Things I Can't Understand", "Through Your Black Hair My Hand", "Wild Lilies Also Have Spring", "Home"...
Luo Dayou gave a speech, ridiculing that after 44 years in the industry, he found that the Special Contribution Award, like the Best Newcomer Award, can only be received once in a lifetime, which is very frustrating. Then said that Huang Yunling, who first entered the industry 38 years ago, wavered, and the trustee asked him if he was suitable for this industry, who thought that after 38 years, Huang Yunling became the chairman of Beiliu.
Luo Dayou said that when you enter this line, you want to use your life to perceive life and write songs.
It sounds like an old saying that laments the passage of time, and it also meets the standard speeches of hall-level figures who generally win lifetime achievement awards. But as soon as the words turned, he clapped his chest on the stage and shouted, "The time is ripe for Taiwan to do musicals, we all work together to do it together, the old mr. Ou Jisang has not stopped here, why do your musicians and singers stop, everyone cheers together."
This statement is not as appropriate as luo Dayou for any veteran of the music world.
At the same time, Li Zongsheng understood women's hearts best, Zhang Zhenyue was always a little cynical, and Zhou Huajian was too gentle; Jay Chou was only a rising star in front of them.
Only Luo Dayou, the feelings of home and country he wrote are not only a record, but also a cultural event, and the love he wrote about is not only love, but also the vicissitudes of the times.
While the authority of the Golden Melody Awards is widely remembered and questioned whether it still exists today, Luo Dayou, who is in his old age, tirelessly encourages young people to create a new chapter in music.
Ma Shifang said, "Thank you Luo Dayou, because of your song, we have become more mature and courageous adults."
After watching the award ceremony switch player, Zhang Aijia pulled Tian Zhuangzhuang to listen to Huang Yongyu tell the story of youth.
Standing 40 years later, the story of talented women has become a shining day, laying out their youthful ideals at the same time, many ideas about the world of the times, and the sound of the future echoes.
Luo Dayou wrote, "I hope you will remember, forever, that we once had shining days."
And now, no matter how old the generations are, the attitude of the first rolling stones to reach the world is still young.
