David Jiang: After a song became popular and made a lot of money, the whole family moved abroad. Why are they laughed at when they come back?

Speaking of David Jiang, many people know that he is a famous tenor in China, known as "Pavarotti of China".

However, with such a powerful label, David Jiang's reputation now seems to plummet. Why? We must start from scratch.

We know that once a person is famous, everything will go smoothly and it will be easier to make money. Therefore, too many people rack their brains to be famous, but few people succeed.

But David Jiang was really lucky, and his road to fame was too easy.

David Jiang learned to sing at an early age, and an accidental opportunity was appreciated by the leaders. Later, he was transferred to the Art Troupe, and his career gradually developed, but at this time, David Jiang did not go to the front of the screen.

At the age of 33, David Jiang got his first chance.

At that time, Qiao Yu, the poet who wrote Love My China, came to this group. At that time, he wanted to find a suitable tenor to sing his new song. After hearing the news, David Jiang immediately ran to Qiao Yu to recommend himself.

Qiao Yu looked at this handsome young man in front of him and agreed, so at 1980, David Jiang and Song of Peony became popular.

David Jiang's singing career rose to the top in 2000, and it really spread to the whole country, thanks to his mentor Xu Jingqing.

Who's Xu Jingqing? He is a national first-class composer. He is the chief composer of The Journey to the West on CCTV Channel 86. All the music in this classic was composed by Xu Jingqing.

At that time, Journey to the West needed a male singer to sing the episode. Just when the crew was at a loss, David Jiang came into Xu Jingqing's sight, so he gave David Jiang a chance to sing "Where is the Road".

It is this song that has spread all over the country with the popularity of The Journey to the West, and also made David Jiang completely popular. Even he himself felt that he had become a big celebrity without any effort.

How hot was David Jiang then? In those days when people's average monthly income was about 65,438+0,000 yuan, David Jiang achieved a monthly income of several hundred thousand yuan.

Later, David Jiang revealed to reporters that his average monthly performance income was around 250,000, and he ran around performing every day, relying on this song "Dare to ask where the road is".

To put it bluntly, David Jiang succeeded, and Xu Jingqing contributed a lot, but at that time, many people didn't know much about copyright issues, and Xu Jingqing didn't know until he was explained by others.

Xu Jingqing once said with a smile that he should ask David Jiang to collect some copyright fees. After all, he was angry, but later he said that he and David Jiang were good friends, and it was still impossible to ask him for money.

It is said that the teacher has already done this, but David Jiang's practice is chilling.

Later, Xu Jingqing held a concert with the theme of The Journey to the West. At that time, many people hoped that David Jiang could come, but when Xu Jingqing invited him, no one answered his phone or text message. Finally, he got in touch with his agent, but they said there was no schedule.

Are you worried about copyright fees, so you don't show up? The answer is estimated to be clear only to David Jiang himself.

1997, David Jiang performed in Canada. David Jiang, who went abroad for the first time, felt the prosperity abroad. In a subsequent interview, David Jiang said that China was a little isolated at that time, and he was a little tempted by the prosperity of Vancouver.

At that time, it happened that David Jiang's daughter had reached the age of going to college. After consulting with his wife, they decided to send her to school in Canada.

Parents are always uneasy about letting their daughters go alone. At that time, David Jiang began to consult about immigration. Some friends say that he is a celebrity, it is not too troublesome to immigrate abroad, and he can also immigrate with his wife and daughter.

However, emigration means giving up one's domestic career. After much hesitation, David Jiang decided to live abroad for her daughter. But at that time, David Jiang only got a green card, but she didn't become a Canadian citizen, only her wife and daughter became Canadians.

That's why we never saw David Jiang on the stage for a while.

But is the moon really that round abroad? That may not be true.

David Jiang is very famous in China, but when he arrived in Canada, he found himself still too young. Because he is not famous abroad, David Jiang didn't get any performances.

Although it is said that you can make a living without performing, it is nothing after all, so David Jiang returned to China.

However, after years of not performing in China, the entertainment circle has long changed, and there are more and more singers in the new era, and David Jiang's career has also fallen into crisis.

However, in order to earn money to support his family, David Jiang had to recognize the reality, so he began to re-enter the stage with the help of The Journey to the West's fame and friends in his circle. In order to make more appearances, David Jiang, who has never participated in variety shows, also went to the Avenue of Stars.

At that time, Zhu Zhiwen was the focus of attention. At the invitation of the program group, Zhu Zhiwen took David Jiang as his teacher. At that time, mentoring was deeply loved by the audience.

When Zhu Zhiwen burst into flames and gradually disappeared from the audience's sight, David Jiang claimed that he didn't have this apprentice. At that time, it was just for the effect of the program, which was a kind of hype. He also said that Zhu Zhiwen often used his fame to perform everywhere.

Not only did he deny his apprentice Zhu Zhiwen, but David Jiang also said in the program that farmers are farmers, and there is no such thing as farmer artists. His words seem to be mocking the peasants.

David Jiang's remarks immediately triggered comments from netizens. How can an old artist who is both virtuous and artistic become so arrogant?

David Jiang, which has been pushed to the forefront, has also been exposed to the news of immigrants in the past, but now many people are uncomfortable to return to China to get money.

Venus once commented on people who returned to China for gold:

"If you are a foreign artist and star, I advise you to come to China to earn money in the future, then you have to pay double income tax and business tax. Do not tell me anything. I was born here, my heart is still here, and your heart is not here at all. "

The famous singer Dai Yuqiang once said, "As a singer, money can't be an excuse for his indifference."

I wonder if David Jiang understands this?

After so many ups and downs, David Jiang's popularity has long been worse than before, and even many people look down on him, but after all, the road of life is their own choice, and both good and bad have to go on.

What do you think of this matter?
