Zang Tianshuo was gone, and the man who sang "Friends" bid farewell to his friends forever.
Red Star News confirmed from Zang Tianshuo's friend, bassist Liu Junli and former agent Wang Bin that Zang Tianshuo died of liver cancer in Beijing at 4:56 a.m. on September 28 at the age of 54.
Zang Tianshuo's Weibo followers are only 220,000, and the top is the news that his "I have a drama art training center" summer vacation class has started. At about 1 p.m. on September 28, the "I Have Drama Art Training Center" in Huairou District on the outskirts of Beijing was still open as normal. On the second floor, several photos of Zang Tianshuo were pasted as a background wall.

Famous guitarist and musician Liao Shiwei and Zang Tianshuo, who have known each other for more than 20 years, told Red Star News that Zang Tianshuo was diagnosed with cancer at the end of last year and has been kept secret from the outside world. "I was going to see him some time ago, and he wasn't very willing. Maybe he wants to recuperate or whatever, many friends he does not want to see. ”
It's been a full decade since he had a deviation in his life.
On September 28, 2008, Zang Tianshuo was imprisoned for his involvement in the gangs of evil forces in the Langfang brawl and murder case and several vicious incidents, and at that time, there was an uproar in the outside world. On November 27, 2009, Zang Tianshuo was convicted of gathering a crowd to fight and sentenced to six years in prison in the first instance. On January 29, 2010, the Beijing Municipal Higher People's Court rendered a final ruling on the case of Zang Tianshuo and others gathering people to fight, upholding the original judgment of the first instance.
This also became a watershed in Zang Tianshuo's life.
After he was released from prison, he was still the fat man who did not look good, but his words became less and less.
Because of a song "Friend" became famous, it is difficult to leave "friends" from now on
Zang Tianshuo later repeatedly talked about the song in an interview, saying that it was actually a satire and a little black humor to express the preciousness of friendship.
Most people are because of Zang Tianshuo, whom "Friends" knows. The song is from his first solo album in 1987, Breaking Into the Forbidden Zone.
"Friend, friend, have you ever thought of me, and if you are enjoying happiness, please forget me." Zang Tianshuo later repeatedly talked about the song in an interview, saying that it was actually a satire and a little black humor to express the preciousness of friendship.

Red Star News reporters visited Zang Tianshuo Recording Studio near beijing's North Fifth Ring Road Beijing Expressway in 2013 during his bail.
"It's like something grabs you, nothing grabs you anymore, I want to grab your heart..." Perhaps it's the sensitivity of rock musicians in Zang Tianshuo's time, who was still surprising when such lyrics improvised from his mouth that day in the rehearsal hall. During the break, a musician said that after Zang Tianshuo came out, he had written a lot of songs, some songs and pure musical things, sometimes absurd, sometimes depressed and low, which was indeed a lot different from before. A guitarist is also Zang Tianshuo's inmate "inside", which is even more surprising.
"The rain outside the window keeps falling, I'm in the dream, you say, what's in the dream... It's all mom's flesh, and we're still hard bones. "I can hear that Zang Tianshuo likes this flashy lyrics and rehearses the emotions in them repeatedly." My friend, you go, go far away, what do you want, say now, don't worry. Don't look back, friend, you have to go well. ”

Zang Tianshuo was obviously moved by his own song, including musicians, and then sang "Friends", although the song did not have a name at that time, and the words were also casual, but let people listen, tears poured up.
In fact, before the release of the first album, Zang Tianshuo joined China's first rock band in 1983, the Tumbler Band, and the members of the band with him were Ding Wu and Sun Guoqing, when Zang Tianshuo was only 19 years old. In 1984, Zang Tianshuo's first original work "Prayer of the Heart" came out, which is also another song that everyone is enthusiastic about in addition to "Friends".
It is worth mentioning that in the video of the "Rock and Roll on the New Long March Road" tour, Zang Tianshuo's figure can also be seen. At that time, he stood behind Cui Jianjian, twisting his body and singing harmony, when he was the keyboard player of Cui Jian's band.

Zang Tianshuo also has many old friends. At the beginning of 2017, he sent several photos of dinner with old friends such as Liang Tian, Ge You, and Xie Yuan. At the wine table, they drank two pot heads.

Lost peace with business "friends" and went to prison, and sent thousands of yuan red envelopes to friends every New Year's Festival
Liao Shiwei told Red Star News that Zang Tianshuo was quite loyal and slightly angry. In his view, Zang Tianshuo is kind by nature, "Every New Year's Festival, carrying a large number of red envelopes, one thousand, two thousand, three thousand, see people to send one, very interesting." ”
Zang Tianshuo once had a smooth sailing and created many works. In 2000, he participated in the "China Song Chart 99Thirum Awards Gala" and won three awards for best lyrics, songs and top ten golden songs, reaching the peak of his career.
However, Zang Tianshuo, who was famous for singing "Friends", ended up falling out of harmony with his business "friends" and went to prison.
At that time, according to media reports, the court held after trial that after Zang Tianshuo had a conflict with others, he actually instructed Lü Changchun to gather many people to fight with weapons, and in the fight, 1 person died and 3 people were slightly injured. In view of their active compensation for the victim's relatives and the victim's economic losses, and for their forgiveness, they are given discretion in sentencing.

"Every night I see each other, drink a little wine or something, and I feel like a big brother." In the late 1990s, when Zang Tianshuo first opened the "Mutual Friendship" bar, Liao Shiwei was often invited to perform. "At that time, he just opened a bar, and he didn't particularly run it, and there weren't many people in the bar. In addition to the performance, usually it is also quite light, sometimes there are so many tables of people every day, he is also there to drink. ”
Liao Shiwei told Red Star News that Zang Tianshuo was quite loyal and slightly angry. "It's not a lot of words, it's not that kind of thing, it's a very simple person."
Liao Shiwei said in an interview with Red Star News that in his opinion, Zang Tianshuo is kind by nature, "He is very good and thoughtful in receiving people and things." Every New Year's Festival, carry a lot of red envelopes, one thousand, two thousand, three thousand, see people to send one, very interesting. ”
For Zang Tianshuo's later uproar over this incident, Liao Shiwei said, "My summary is that I was careless in making friends. Because of opening a bar, that kind of place has everyone, any friend he goes to contact, to Zhang Luo, judgment is not necessarily enough. ”

In the view of Gong Ming, a freelance musician and former guitarist of the band "Fireflies", Zang Tianshuo is very moralistic.
In August 1987, Gong Ming, who was in the Railway Literary troupe at the time, was introduced by a friend to join the band formed by the famous composer Gu Jianfen, "At that time, there were two keyboards, one of which was Zang Tianshuo, and the other bass was Zhang Ju, one of the founders of the later Tang Dynasty band, and I was the guitarist of the band." "Gong Ming told Red Star News that in order to prepare for a performance in Dalian, everyone rehearsed together for a month." Rehearse every morning, eat together at noon, and then rehearse in the afternoon. At that time, the rehearsals included "Green Leaves' Affection for Roots", "Thoughts", "Prayer of the Heart" and so on.
However, after a month of rehearsals expired, the show was postponed to December of the end of 1987. At that time, Zang Tianshuo and Zhang Ju had left the band, and Gong Ming was unable to perform with them. "He left the band not for himself, just for Zhang Ju." Gong Ming recalled, "Because Zhang Ju was given a simplified score function spectrum at that time, but he played it incorrectly, and wanted to take it back to practice, some people may feel that 'this can't be picked up and played', and they have to change the bass." When I wanted to change the bass, Zang Tianshuo said that he would change Zhang Ju away, so I would also leave. ”

Released from prison, there is less of the gangsterism of the past: less words, love to practice words, and sing the landscape
"People who haven't practiced words can't feel that feeling, and Lao Zang told me that it would be addictive, and if you don't practice one day, you will be uncomfortable." It is the things that practice Yan Liu, Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan, and he enjoys himself. ”
"When Lao Zang 'had an accident', the child had just turned 100 days old. He came out with very few words, and hardly said anything 'inside', and perhaps didn't really know what to say. ”
The third elder is a good friend of Zang Tianshuo for many years, and during Zang Tianshuo's days in prison, he has been helping him guard the recording studio. He said that after his release from prison, Zang Tianshuo seemed to have changed as a person, and his mentality became more and more peaceful.
Wang Bin, Zang Tianshuo's former agent, told Red Star News, "He gets up at 8 or 9 o'clock every day and has no habit of taking a lunch break. Maybe it's getting used to it, having a peaceful mind and practicing words every day. Before that, he also practiced calligraphy in it, joined the literary and art class, and played the piano to create. ”
"People who haven't practiced words can't feel that feeling, and Lao Zang told me that it would be addictive, and if you don't practice one day, you will be uncomfortable." It is the things that practice Yan Liu, Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan, and he enjoys himself. "Zang Tianshuo also worshiped the calligraphy master after that, before working in the Forbidden City, Zang Tianshuo met this teacher when he was 8 years old, learned a lot, and then went abroad, and recently returned, Zang Tianshuo just happened to be practicing calligraphy, and officially worshiped him as a teacher.

Wang Bin said a passage, Zang Tianshuo saw the cover of his friend Daolang's album "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" and said: "I am definitely better than this when I write the word 'Daolang' now." ”
After his release from prison, the style of Zang Tianshuo's songs changed a lot, the style was very different from before, and even some voices heard the meaning of Zen. In the eyes of more people, these songs are very "Zang Tianshuo". Whether it is "Zang Ye" or "Xiao Zang" in the mouth of friends in the circle, Zang Tianshuo and his works present the context and clues of time. His straight-hooked voice and singing style have not changed at all, and the style of picking up the guitar has not changed.

Years ago, when he went to jail in disgraceful fashion, many thought he would not be able to return to the stage. That "friend" with a sincere voice may be gone. After many years, his music is full of landscapes, flowers, springs and time, and it seems to be out of tune with the current busy city.
"He was successful, he was not only successful in getting out of his music, but also into the market. His songs were accepted by the public, and his works were very good in terms of management. Every musician wants to have a cry to society and be heard. For Zang Tianshuo's musical achievements, Gong Ming commented on it.
Zang Tianshuo has indeed changed, less of the banditry of the past, and more of a homely taste.

Zang Tianshuo's enthusiasm and arrogance are now transformed into a sentence in her mouth: Go well
Zang Tianshuo's friends commented that people have a good side and a bad side, and some things are induced by the environment, but they think that Zang Tianshuo is not a bad person, but a rough and fine Beijing rough old man.
Zang Tianshuo has two sides, on the one hand, he has drawn swords for friends many times and participated in charity activities; on the other hand, he has also caused many disputes because of his impatient personality, boldness and arrogance.
In the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, Zang Tianshuo composed the disaster relief song "Children, Don't Cry", which sang a man's fatherly care for the children affected by the disaster. At that time, Zang Tianshuo was deeply touched by the lyrics and played the piano all night to compose the music. After 12 hours, at 3 a.m. the next day, at 3 a.m., the song sung to the children in the disaster area was recorded.
Zang Tianshuo's friends said that Dou Wei's flattening of the car burning case and Xu Wei's ability to come out of depression were all related to Zang Tianshuo.

He has shelled "The Same Song", scolded the host at the awards ceremony, and had a romantic entanglement with the female singer Stringer Rile, but now all this has disappeared.
On September 28, Stringer Rile posted on the Internet "If you meet in the next life, I would like to see your healthy and proud appearance", mourning Zang Tianshuo: "No matter how thick the fog is, you are still like that..."
Finally, she wrote: Brother Zang, go well, go all the way.
