On September 30 this year, the well-known folk singer Zhao has died of illness in Sanya at the age of 58.
After more than a month, the media summarized Zhao's life from five aspects, interviewed the relatives and friends around Boss Zhao, and everyone mentioned that the boss was full of respect in his heart, although he was self-contained and did not follow the footsteps of the times, but it was undeniable that he was a god-like existence in the Chinese rock industry.
In 1963, Zhao was born in a literary and artistic family, there were four children in the family, Zhao was already the eldest, his younger brother Zhao Muyang was a famous drummer, with the reputation of "Northwest Drum King", and his sister was a teacher.
Zhao, who graduated from college in the 1980s, could already become a chemistry teacher, but he was not satisfied with the status quo and became a rock singer.
Speaking of Zhao, everyone is more familiar with his works, only one album "Living in 1988", his representative song "I am not your favorite person" became popular on the Internet.
After entering the new century, Zhao has not kept pace with the times, and still misses the singing life of the 1980s and 1990s.
He once mentioned in the interview that he was addicted to the glory of the past, so that he could not get out, relying on friends to help him to survive, after everyone proposed to hold concerts and interviews for him, Boss Zhao finally refused.
From the mouth of relatives and friends, I learned that Zhao has long been affected by the disease, and his asthma was detected more than ten years ago, but he did not change his living habits and continued to smoke;
In 2014, Zhao had been diagnosed with COPD, he refused Western medical treatment, hoping for Chinese medicine treatment, until the last stage of his life, he still asked his friends to help find Chinese medicine.
In 2020, Zhao has moved to Sanya to recuperate, and friends around him describe him as a patient who does not cooperate, even if his friends visit him, he is not willing to accompany him for a long time to fight the disease, because of the different habits of life, coupled with the unwillingness to accept new things.
Zhao's parents are already old, and the second elder needs Zhao's care even more, but he did not want the white-haired person to send the black-haired person.
The interview article mentioned some details before Zhao's death, he and his brother Zhao Muyang agreed to last until October, Zhao was already seriously ill but worried about his old father, so he hoped to stick with it.
In June, my friend received a selfie from Zhao Already, who was thin and painful, and could be described as "described as withered";
Four days before his death, he had sent a message to the girl who had taken care of him, and the three words "come to save me" showed despair but full of hope for life.
On September 29, the eldest sister who took care of Zhao Already arranged for him to go home after eating and sleeping, and as a result, Zhao Laoda left, he died of suffocation when he turned over after sleeping, and on September 30, Zhao's life was over.
Whether it is friends or family, the mention of Zhao has been more of respect and love, feel that his life is miserable, there has been love but failed to go to the end, first his parents left, there was a peak in life but did not save money, poor and poor in the second half of his life, but let people see the enthusiasm for music.
