On March 29, 1997, the band " Mayday " was officially established. They sang in Da'an Forest Park. Ashin had to sing on stage, but also be responsible for the equipment off stage. When the host of
introduced them, he said enthusiastically: "The next group of orchestras will have a resounding name, which will become famous all over the world and be famous in the future. "
At that time, let alone the audience below, even the Mayday Band thought that what the host said was just a scene.
The audience did not take it seriously, and Mayday did not dare to imagine it.
When the record was not released, Ashin worked in the studio all day long, feeling that "it will never be Mayday's turn."
On the way back to school by riding a motorcycle, he always thought, "Will there be a future if we continue like this? "
When Ashin was 24 years old, Mayday released his first studio album.
Unexpectedly, the album sold more than 300,000 copies and was shortlisted for the Golden Melody Award. " Zhiming and Chunjiao " became the annual champion of the KTV rankings.
Ashin mentioned in the concert: "There is a song, two people, who took us from north to south, and everyone began to know Mayday. "
The two people are "Zhiming" and "Chunjiao". When
held the first large-scale concert "The 168th LIVE", the mother of monster was afraid of being dissatisfied with the venue, so she specially invited relatives and neighbors. Ashin's parents also pulled hundreds of people to save face.
As a result, the stadium was filled with fans of Mayday, which moved them very much.
1999, Mayday drummer withdrew. When a performance was booked, Guanyou rushed to save the venue.
The performance ended. Ashin and the others asked Guanyou to join Mayday, but it was a bit difficult to say it out, because Guanyou already had his own team at that time, and no one knew what Mayday would be in the future.
Fortunately, they succeeded later and did not disappoint their trust and efforts.

After becoming popular, Mayday soon encountered the first challenge.
Marsha and the monster were going to fulfill their obligations, and they had to part.
Everyone believes that separation means disbanding, and they also held a temporary farewell concert called "Where are you going". At the concert of
, Shi Tou completed his "big event in life" and sought in the rain Marriage.
20,000 people sang "Missing You Every Day" with him. Many people couldn't tell whether they were rain or tears on their faces.
Guanyou thought, "It's good to be separated for a while," but when they saw the fans crying, they were very reluctant to leave.
They were not sure about the future, Guanyou even bet with Ashin that no one would remember them in two years.
Only Martha is different. He is sure of the reunion in two years, "If we don't be together, who will we be with? ”
Two years later, Mayday returned as scheduled.
Stone ended its foreign course two months in advance. Martha's hair was cut very short, and they were busy preparing for a comeback concert.
Five days before the "Sky City" comeback concert, the outside of the stadium was filled with fans queuing up all night.
Ashin passed by them and urged them to go home, but no one left. Someone sat on the ground and only layed a newspaper. On the day of the concert, there were 40,000 fans. Guanyou, who lost the bet, danced swan dance on the stage. The atmosphere on the scene seemed to be boiling water.
Mayday they felt very unreal, as if not long ago, they had no money and drank instant noodles until midnight while recording. They were always dissatisfied with the songs they practiced.
succeeds, it looks a bit sudden, but in fact it is all about accumulating strength.
Later, they went to Beijing and their first performance was in a bar. Only 20 tickets were sold for 30 yuan.
Ashin sang the song "Stubborn" as if no one else:
My last stubborn
I hold my hands tightly and never put it
Next stop is a paradise
Even if you are disappointed, you can't despair
Is it a stubborn
Is it a pity to despair
Is it a stubborn
I sing loudly in the wind
This time I am crazy for myself
Just this time I am my stubborn
Starting from scratch, Mayday sings their songs stubbornly, from Beizhan Theater to the workers' gymnasium, from 40,000 stadiums to the bird's nest, 100,000 audiences were packed. They spent a whole 9 years singing into the hearts of thousands of fans.

Many years later, Mayday still remembers the loneliness when he signed for the first time in Harbin.
There were less than 20 fans present at the signing meeting. They were arranged next to the checkout desk in a supermarket. In order to prevent the entire signing meeting from being too short, the five people signed each fan several times.
With "Stubborn" and "Secessfulness" popular all over the country, Mayday has become popular, and many young people use their songs to inspire themselves.
Guanyou became the second person in the group to propose at a concert, which was in Beijing Workers Stadium .
In the backstage lounge, Lee Zongsheng took Guan You’s proposal speech and helped him proofread it.
Guanyou walked onto the stage and sang "Believe" affectionately, crying until he couldn't even say a complete sentence.
They made Mayday, and Mayday also witnessed their little things, the most important part of their lives.
25, they have always adhered to the original intention of music, resisted many temptations, and were always so sincere.
Axin once said in "True Love Index": "Many people are looking forward to what we do, maybe for the so-called company year-end bonus or something, and of course they also want to save more money for their parents and themselves. As they get older, many realistic things will come in."
The pressure on reality is very high, and they can only block them out: "The five of us will forcefully support those things with our arms and keep them out of the music."
is also this original intention that has kept them down and has made fans unyielding for 25 years.

Jay Chou once said at a concert: I am their youth, Mayday is their life.
25, they had no disputes, no appearance, and no solo.
From being armed with each other when they were young to being now to middle-aged people, they have accompanied each other and helped each other all the way, creating miracles.
Once upon a time, because of "Stubborn" and "Satisfied" in love with Mayday, the years have gradually grown, and they are increasingly moved by their friendship and sincerity, and their innocent heart.
Their concerts are sentimental, but far more than feelings.
25 years together, their songs have accompanied countless fans to embrace happiness and go through troughs. They are the light in many people's lives.
In 2020, offline performances were almost stopped, and Mayday moved the concert online.
"Suddenly I Want to See You" online concert, they booked the stadium and sang the whole show in front of the empty seats.
They firmly believe that Mayday and fans need each other and care about each other.
Axin said: "Things that we unexpectedly will happen in this world, and changes will come at any time. Because of this, Mayday wants to maintain something that will never change."
Now, we are about to go through three years of haze. After more than 800 days of waiting, Mayday's concert is also late.
The long-lost passion and joy made the fans sing in tears again.
In this era, we need Mayday, their vigorous vitality and flying passion, and their peace of mind and contentment.
and the song "Song of Lost Forgetfulness", which comforts ordinary life.
"Let our wounds heal slowly, and tomorrow I will be brand new again. One day we are all old, and it will be OK if we don't regret it. I forgot the sadness, I only remember this song of forgetting laughter."
In another 25 years, we will still love Mayday, and companionship is the most affectionate confession.
In this life, just be happy ordinary people. Who says that this is not great?
