Fei Yuqing was taking a shower when he first heard this song. His first reaction was to quickly rush out of the bathroom and want to see who is on TV and who can have such a high-pitched singing voice.

The Taiwanese music scene in the last century was shining with stars.

1988, Zhang Yusheng song "My Future Is Not a Dream" spread throughout the music industry.

Fei Yuqing When he heard this song for the first time, his first reaction was to quickly rush out of the bathroom, wanting to see who is on TV, and he can have such a high-pitched singing voice.

Zhang Yusheng signed a contract on the talented UFO Records, releasing his first album " Miss You Every Day ", which achieved sales of 350,000 copies.

Watch the big boy on the cover of the record, reading and writing, and having a student atmosphere. However, good boys seem to be far less talkative than "violent man".

A year before "Missing You Every Day", Qi Qin released the album " Winter Rain HTML ", and at the same time, Wang Jie appeared, debuting in the music industry as a single father.

View the cover of the two albums with dark tones, showing half of the face or side face, revealing the coldness of being isolated from the world.

But it was these two people who became a "super whirlwind" at that time, sweeping the entire Chinese music scene .

, the pair of "Gemini" once became a "East Evil and West Poison"-style existence in the music industry.

Looking back at Qi Qin and Wang Jie, not to mention that they are both "record overlords", their fate trajectories are quite similar: the "rebellious prodigal son" who has never been recognized by the world has become the king of pop music.

Famous costs follow one after another, and their love is like a mirror and a moon.

There were too many legends to write when they were young, and their middle-aged situation showed sadness. When they fell from the "altar" and ushered in a tide, the "legend" was always blown away by the rain and wind.

Is

artificial "personality determines destiny", or is the later wave beats the previous wave, and the music industry cannot tolerate the "outdated king"?

(1)

Qi Qin's father is a civil servant who is busy with official duties all day long and has no time to take care of his family.

Mother likes to play cards very much, leaving money at the dinner table, and letting the children solve their food and clothing problems by themselves.

Due to the lack of parental discipline, Qi Qin's personality became more and more arrogant during adolescence. He had escaped from home, fought, and did all kinds of rebellious things. During the period of

, Qi Qin also got involved in the campus gang, although she wanted to find a backer to avoid the middle school students being bullied by high school students. But after all, being a "gangster" seems to be a ruined future in the outside world.

When Qi Qin was 16 years old, his parents went to the United States and his eldest brother studied in Japan. Only Qi Qin and his sister Qi Yu were left at home.

At this time, the naughty Qi Qin committed a crime. He was a regular visitor to the police station and was sent to the Response House .

At the age of youth and freedom, Qi Qin lived a closed labor camp life.

Wang Jie, who is two years younger than him, lives a life of displaced life.

Wang Jie's parents Wang Xia and Xu Yu are both actors of Shaw Brothers . He grew up on the set.

Sometimes the crew is short of people, and Wang Jie will be caught by the director and will play a guest role in several children's roles.

But unlike today's child stars, they are treasures held by their parents in their hands.

On Wang Jie, his parents' love for him was pitifully few. Most of the time, they were beaten, stocked, thrown a few coins, and went to eat by themselves with the money.

The bitter past of the two kings is as long as a cloth.

Qi Qin entered the Institute of Responsibilities.

Every day, when passing through dense barbed wire, I long for the care of my family when I see the towering walls. But when it comes to visiting relatives, only my sister Qi Yu comes to deliver food and clothes to him.

On the other side, Wang Jie was sent to a church school because his parents divorced and flew with their own lives, leaving their son to survive alone.

Although his parents are still alive, they have become "orphans". This is Wang Jie when he was young.

At this time, they changed their destiny. However, the legendary nobleman is actually a "musical instrument".

The influence courtyard where Qi Qin is staying has a classroom for entertainment. In the corner of the classroom, Qi Qin found a broken guitar. He played it a few times while he was idle. He became interested and was out of control.

Later, Qi Qin asked his sister to come to see him every week and asked her to bring guitar textbooks and a few new guitar strings. Qi Qin, who was self-taught, looked at the mountains outside the school and wrote the "The World Outside" that has been sung to this day.

As for Wang Jie, the school he studied stipulates that students must take a compulsory musical instrument. Wang Jie learned piano because of this and then came into contact with guitar.

Through learning music, Wang Jie and Qi Qin both found ways to express their depression.

A garden party, Wang Jie murmured and sang with a guitar, and the first original song "The Doll is Crying" was born.

(2)

The Taiwan music scene is experiencing a vigorous folk song movement, and the music lyrics and music are filled with a fresh and literary atmosphere.

Among the popular singers in the folk song era, Qi Qin's sister: Qi Yu.

At that time, Qi Yu's " Olive Tree " won the award in Hong Kong. After receiving the bonus of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, Qi Yu did not spend it on himself, but spent 7,500 Hong Kong dollars to buy a guitar for his younger brother for Yamaha .

Before Qi Qin debuted, his sister was helping her with all her strength, and her good intentions made her deep siblings.

As Qi Qin's labor camp ended, Qi Yu took his younger brother to pay homage to his mentor Li Taixiang , and then took him to the recording studio for internship and observation, thinking that in the low stage of Qi Qin, he would bring him a positive life guidance.

After a while, Qi Qin also debuted in singing.

In 1981, Qi Qin released her first album "Seeing Her Again". Because of his military service, Qi Qin suspended his musical pace.

Qi Qin is "lucky" than Wang Jie, and his friends and relatives are helping him enter the music scene. Wang Jie seemed to have no relatives and could not see hope of debut!

After leaving the church school, Wang Jie ran back to Taiwan alone. In order to survive, he worked as a stand-in, cement, dock coolie, painter...

One night when he passed Ximendong , Wang Jie ran into several gangsters bullying girls. Out of courageous intentions, he stepped forward and grabbed the girl's hand, pulled the other party to run away, and ran across the road.

seems to be a movie scene, and the hero and heroine encounter a spark of love. Later, Wang Jie married the girl and the two held a simple ceremony under the overpass.

Soon, the girl got pregnant and gave birth to a child. Wang Jie is also facing the problem of serving in the military. So he entrusted his wife to his mother.

I just didn't expect that the mother would become the "initiator" of her son's "unlucky life".

While Wang Jie left, his wife couldn't stand the mother-in-law bringing a group of men to her house for fun in the middle of the night, and even asked her to dance and drink together, and finally left her daughter in the cradle and left.

When Wang Jie returned with anticipation, he was greeted by the cold air and his babbling daughter.

As for the child's mother, it has long disappeared.

How to support a single father?

When Wang Jie even added a braised egg to his daughter's noodles, which was a stretch.

With the belief of "buying a big house for my daughter", Wang Jie did all kinds of dirty and tiring work, and tasted the warmth and warmth of human feelings.

While working in the bar, Wang Jie's musical dream sprouted in the cracks of reality.

It turns out that whenever the song ends, Wang Jie happens to use the musical instruments in the store to record a few songs for himself and try sending them to the record company. But perhaps the production is simple, Wang Jie received no response.

At that time, Lee Zongsheng was like Lee Zongsheng who had been a folk song restaurant with Qi Qin. At that time, he had just entered Rolling Stone Records as a production. Because the singing of Qi Qin is very familiar, Leehom will use Qi Qin as the standard when interviewing singers.

When he received Wang Jie's song, Li Zongsheng shook his head when he heard it. Qi Qin had become popular in the music industry, and this could not be popular again.

Yes, who initially expected that Wang Jie's popularity would overshadow Qi Qin?

In 1985, after Qi Qin returned to the music scene, the album "Wolf" released changed the freshness of folk songs. The image of tight AB pants, sunglasses and long hair made Qi Qin a spiritual idol among teenagers.

Next, Qi Qin released the record "Winter Rain", setting a record for the title song to be the top of the list for seven weeks.

Strong opponents are like storms, seemingly difficult to resist and surpass. However, if it is another storm, it will only make the strong wind in the music industry blow even harder and more intense.

The person who brought another storm to the music scene is called Li Shouquan .

After Wang Jie was withdrawn from the song many times, he was finally recognized by this music master.

1987, with the help of Li Shouquan's exploration, Wang Jie released the album that was later selected as the "Taiwan Top 100 Records": " One Game One Dream ".

This record is released by UFO Records. The lyrics and music production brings together a group of big-name musicians such as Wang Wenqing, Chen Zhiyuan , Chen Lerong , and the record quality is excellent.

Yesterday's prodigal son, today's superstar. In 1988, Wang Jie's second album "Forget You and Forget Me", and the main song won the championship in the rankings for 8 weeks. The record set by Qi Qin was broken by Wang Jie!

In 1988, Qi Qin's record was introduced to the mainland. Qi Qin, a woman from the "Southern Wolf", supported a group of strip singers from the north.

Tu Honggang In his early years, he went to the studio to record songs, and sang Qi Qin's " Original Me " and "The Outer World". Liu Huan also revealed the songs of Qi Qin, and Teacher Liu looked like this at that time.

Soon, Wang Jie's song of the prodigal son also came across the ocean.

A program called "Trend, Songs from Taiwan" was broadcast in the mainland. Among a number of popular classic songs, there is the song "A Game, One Dream".

From problem youth to music superstars, Qi Qin and Wang Jie both ushered in their "career peak" in the early 1990s.

Qi Qin became the first Taiwanese singer to perform in the mainland.

Wherever the superstar goes, fans are crowded with cheers.

Qi Qin is incredible in the mainland, and Wang Jie is popular in Hong Kong.

He entered the Hong Kong music scene with his first Cantonese album and successfully gained position in the blank period after " Tan Zhang Zhengba ".

When Wang Jie became popular in Hong Kong, the four kings had not yet become an army, so it was no wonder that he sneered at the four kings in the future.

In terms of music performance, Qi Qin and Wang Jie are at the peak of the music scene, but in fact, the development routes of both sides are not the same.

Qi Qin's early music is undoubtedly wonderful and exquisite, independent of ideas, extremely experimental and pioneering.

When he debuted, Qi Qin turned to form his own Hong Band because he was dissatisfied with the musician model of "working and taking money away".

Of course, some people say, "fans are passionate and ruthless."

When the music industry is paying attention to Wang Jie's sudden appearance, there seem to be fewer people mentioning Qi Qin than before: "Oh, Qi Qin hasn't released a new song for a long time?"

Qi Qin worked hard to create, and there were fewer people appearing in public and singing pop songs.

Wang Jie at the same time seemed to "win by quantity" and once set a model worker record of "publishing three albums in 13 months".

However, Wang Jie suffered from anorexia and lost weight. He even fainted and was sent to the hospital for a long time.

At that time, the doctor warned Wang Jie many times: "If this continues, you won't even have a life!"

Wang Jie later complained bitterly that year, saying that which man didn't want him to have abdominal muscles? However, I lost so much that I was skinny and boneless because of my work.

There is a girl named Mo Qiwen who entered Wang Jie's life.

In 1993, the two met and had the beginning of their love story because of filming the MV of " Hongchen with You ".

At that time, the two not only got together, but also had a flash marriage.

After marriage, Wang Jie intends to return to his family, and in order to nourish his anorexia, he put down his career at its peak and went to Canada.

Good times don’t last long, peaceful days end in less than four years.

Wang Jie and Mo Qiwen divorced due to their disagreement in character, and the two went to court, and the scene was quite embarrassing. Regarding the specific reasons for the breakup, the two of them always had their own words, and outsiders had no way to know the inside story.

(4)

Before leaving Hong Kong, Wang Jie claimed that he was a rich man who bought a building with royalties. However, with the payment of huge alimony and repaying his mother's debts, most of the wealth he accumulated was emptied.

Facing a woman to say love to him again, Wang Jie was afraid and would only rush to avoid: "I'm very poor."

When asked about his opinion on love, Wang Jie lost his innocent belief in the past, and the sad experience of being deceived and dumped appeared in his mind: "The girls who like me are not sincere."

Even the king of music can't escape emotional troubles.

For Qi Qin, his bumpy love path is also an indelible mark on the music road.

In 1991, Qi Qin served as the first general manager of EMI's Asian branch in Taiwan. As a result, Qi Qin found that he was not a business man, and he was not good at management, so he had to withdraw from the commercial market in disgrace.

career encountered a bottleneck and his relationship was even more frustrated. The lover of love in Qi Qin's music, Wang Zuxian, broke up with Qi Qin at this stage and turned into someone else's arms.

The love story between Qi Qin and Wang Zuxian was developing towards the script of "Golden Boy and Jade Girl".

In 1986, the career gap between Qi Qin and his ex-girlfriend Fang Meifang widened, and the conflicts were irreconcilable, and they ended in a breakup. Qi Qin, who sang and played by the best, became the male lead in the movie " Floral Grass and Blue Sky ".

films asked Qi Qin to choose the heroine himself. Among the actresses such as Maggie Cheung , Chu Hong , Qi Qin chose Joey Wong, who is still a newcomer.

, and Joey Wong, who had long heard the singing of Qi Qin, learned that Qi Qin had invited to film, and agreed immediately and rushed back to Taiwan from Hong Kong.

Later, the two fell in love because of the drama and started a long-distance relationship. But he didn't want to kill Cheng Yaojin halfway, a wealthy businessman named Lin Jianyue pursued Joey Wong.

In 1994, during the breakup between Wang Zuxian of Qi and Qin, Lin Jianyue was rich and proud and successfully captured her heart.

heard that Joey Wong has a new love, and his old love Qi Qin's heart is like a knife, and he never forgets it.

Fortunately, love seems to favor him again, and his love relationship with Joey Wong has not completely broken down.

At that time, after Joey Wong and Lin Jianyue dating, they felt deeply that the wealthy family was deep and could never wait to "reinforce the right". During the period, Lin Jian's mother-in-law kept obstructing it, and the man's fickle nature remained unchanged, which made Joey Wong realize that no matter how much money he had, he could not get a free and sincere heart.

. People who can give this feeling, go around and look back suddenly, Qi Qin is still the person waiting in the dim light.

1996, Qi Qin and Wang Zuxian reunited.

Qi Qin, who lost and regained, publicly expressed his love, saying that he loved Joey Wong for "three lives".

Wang Zuxian also responded warmly to love this time.

She starred in Qi Qin's " Cliff " mv, in which she ran barefoot for 5 kilometers, and her feet were worn out, but she didn't care and said with a smile: "As long as Qi Qin's record sells well, everything is worth it!"

love has really driven Qi Qin's career.

In 1996, Qi Qin won the Golden Melody Award for Best Mandarin Male Singer for his album "Silk Road". His career returned to its peak after being dormant and silent.

(5)

It’s a pity that looking back, it was also the “last grand scene” of the two kings of the music industry.

On the one hand, Qi Qin's love is sweet and his career is developing stably. Although some urban lyric songs are less artistic, his Qi-style love songs are unique after all, and listeners still admire his perfect singing voice.

Wang Jie also maintained his initial singing skills.

After divorce, he returned to the music scene. Wang Jie was full of confidence in himself: "I, Wang Jie, started my business with one dollar, but now I don't want anything, and I can still start my business with one dollar!"

1999, Wang Jie joined Emperor and became brothers with the popular Nicholas Tse .

The Hong Kong music scene around the millennium was popular among the young Nicholas Tse.

But Wang Jie never got old and sang his stubborn middle-aged " Sad 1999", and is still the best in the record performance.

But with the exposure of rumors of the two old and new kings, coupled with the media deliberately smearing Wang Jiebo's attention.

The public's attention to Wang Jie gradually shifted from his works to his private life, and the former superstars were gradually destroyed by rumors.

Wang Jie was suspected of his life by paparazzi gossip. Qi Qin, who was originally close to his good deeds with Joey Wong, was also extremely troubled by gossip scandals.

In 2001, Qi Qin's girlfriend Fang Meifang suddenly ran out and demanded child support in the name of her son, asking Qi Qin to pay 5.26 million NT$2 .

The reason for this accusation was like a thunder sound, because it was Qi Qin who "abandoned his son".

Time is the executioner, always revealing his cruel side to the world.

As paternity test is true, Qi Qin had to admit that he had an illegitimate child.

And this news defeated Wang Zuxian. She was talking about marriage with Qi Qin. Although she could understand Qi Qin's difficulties, she could not bear the rolling public opinion pressure in the end.

In 2004, the two broke up peacefully after a long conversation.

From then on, Joey Wong went away to reclusively live in Canada and healed her love injury alone. This love that spans a century has not ended up with the hope of the world.

I want to say that at that time, not only Wang Zuxian, but also Wang Jie.

Wang Jie flew over half of the earth to see his son whom he hadn't seen for many years. But when he ran to school, his son, whom he hadn't seen for many years, didn't recognize him at all, and just focused on laughing and having fun with his classmates.

It turned out that after divorced his second wife, Wang Jie was asked by the woman not to get close to his son within 500 meters, which led to the unfamiliarity and estrangement of the father and son.

Regarding family affection, Qi Qin is still "rich".

broke up with Joey Wong, and the two have been in love for many years. Qi Qin said that he treated Wang Zuxian as his sister, and the two would still contact each other, but they would no longer be tied up with marriage.

In contrast, Wang Jie has always been a luxury for him.

And fate was very cruel to Wang Jie. Then even his proud singing voice had a problem, that is, his voice was "poisonous and hoarse".

(6)

000. When Wang Jie opened his voice again, everyone found that the king was hoarse and hard to sing. Where did the voice of the gods in the past go?

Finally, in "Very Quiet Distance", Wang Jie revealed for the first time that someone poisoned the drink he drank, "Lead poison is a few mercury."

But in 2014 "Phoenix Extreme Tao", Wang Jie said again: "I forgot what poison was poisoned, I only know that that poison will petrify the vocal cords."

Who is the one who poisoned, Wang Jie's statement has changed.

At first, he said he didn't know who the murderer was.

Later, he said that he already knew who the murderer was, but he did not want to ruin his life.

So the audience really felt sorry for Wang Jie in the early stage, but as everyone discovered that Wang Jie had too many contradictory points, there were gradually doubts about "Wang Jie lies and attracting attention".

And to this day, this "poisoning theory" has not been concluded.

Of course, when it comes to Qi Qin, everyone has lamented that his voice is no longer and his performance has become unreasonable.

However, he lamented the "humble" he has put down his posture for his livelihood over the years.

After 2010, pop music entered the "variety show era", and both newcomers and veterans were squeezed on the show and were exposed.

In 2013, Qi Qin participated in "I Am a Singer".

I want to say that Qi Qin started well and won the first championship. But from the second period, his ranking fell and he was about to be at the bottom.

After the fourth game, Qi Qin suddenly proposed to withdraw from the competition, giving the reason to go back to the United States to accompany his mother.

This made the outside world speculate whether Qi Qin was afraid and escaped at the last moment.

Like Qi Qin, there is also the "godfather of the music scene" Luo Dayou.

2014's " China's Voice ", the program team has officially announced the mentor lineup, namely Luo Dayou, Na Ying , Wang Feng , and Yang Kun .

But not long after recording, Luo Dayou stopped doing it. The reason for leaving was confusing, which attracted speculation from all walks of life.

After Luo Dayou gave up the pick, Qi Qin came to the remedy.

But unexpectedly, the king-level guest who came to save the program team did not receive special treatment. On the promotional poster reposted by

, Na Ying and Wang Feng were in the middle, and Qi Qin leaned aside. According to the position of the music scene, some people questioned why it wasn’t Qi Qin in the middle?

From the tutor standing aside, Qi Qin appeared in "China Star" again, and his identity changed from a mentor to a singer.

At that time, the judges he faced were Liu Huan, Cui Jian , and Lin Yilian .

On the show, Qi Qin encountered unexpected "embarrassment".

Originally, he adapted a song "Old Dream" with his own band, thinking that he was full of sincerity and was confident of winning the competition. But the next tutor commented that he "slapped" Qi Qin in the face.

Liu Huan is sure that Qi Qin's arrangement is very good, but the theme of the song is inconsistent, and he ends up giving an average score of 7 points.

Cui Jian didn't give him face and bluntly criticized Qi Qin for relying too much on teamwork and losing his own characteristics, and scored the lowest 6 points in the game.

In fact, judging from the debut qualifications, Qi Qin is more "old qualifications" than any judges present. The rotation of Feng Shui like

really makes people sigh at this old "wolf king".

Perhaps, compared to the pride of cherishing feathers, making money is a realistic helplessness that everyone has.

Many people also pointed out that Qi Qin took the show down on the face and went to some local commercial performances, which was actually to make money from milk powder.

Shortly after breaking up with Joey Wong, Qi Qin met the singer Sun Liya , who is 24 years younger than him.

In 2010, the two registered to get married and had a daughter and a son.

Life is not easy, and the burden on the family is on this middle-aged man. The repeated setbacks on variety shows made Qi Qin feel that the next wave is pushing the previous wave, which is no longer as good as back then. It is difficult to make money from making a comeback this year!

However, Qi Qin still has the spirit of a king, saying that there must be wins and losses in the competition, and he will accept any ending. Instead, he hopes that he will not take up a place to give new singers a chance to show it.

When faces the ruthless years, Wang Jie is also the one who has to accept his old age.

Faced with fans looking forward to him participating in "I Am a Singer", he also responded modestly: "I can't sing, and I can't beat these young brothers and sisters now."

As a result, these "self-modest" words were criticized. Some black fans maliciously insulted Wang Jie and scolded Wang Jie's mother. Wang Jie was so angry that he hung up this person on Weibo, saying that he would call the police to deal with it.

Later, perhaps because the right and wrong of the public is getting worse and worse. Wang Jie was tired and didn’t want to deal with it anymore. Why bother to worry in the complex network environment?

After posting the long article "I am worthy of myself", he cleared Weibo .

Now, while Wang Jie withdrew from the music scene, he completely faded out of the public's vision, no longer caring about how many people still love him and how many people hate him.

bid farewell to the bustle and bustle, and living a peaceful life without anyone paying attention has become the destination that the kings of the music scene have achieved.

It is undeniable that Qi Qin and Wang Jie once took advantage of the situation to reach the peak.

Their personal situation changes in the future, whether their personality determines their destiny or the waves in the Yangtze River push the waves in the past, it proves that they will eventually "relent to surrender" to this era.

Flowers and applause, fame, fortune and love, these are just passing clouds and smoke in life, and no matter how bright the stars are, they cannot be shining forever.

The former king created his own era, but in that era, that period of youth was finally over, leaving behind a word of missing the world and leaving behind a generation of sighs to the two king singers.
