Speaking of Brother Chopsticks, I believe many people are familiar with it. If you don’t know Brother Chopsticks, you must have heard the songs "Old Boy", "Father", and "Little Apple".
You are my little apple, just like the most beautiful cloud in the sky, spring comes again and the hillside is full of flowers, and hope will be harvested when you plant it. I think the lyrics in Little Apple will sing a few words regardless of whether it is adults, children or old people.
The song was played on the streets and alleys in those few years, and the aunts who danced square dances on the square were dancing. These Divine Comedies are composed of "Chopstick Brothers" Xiao Yang and Wang Taili, who are a composite combination of "screenwriter, director, actor, music creator, and singer".
Xiao Yang and Wang Taili
Xiao Yang, born in 1980 in Chengde City, Hebei Province, are male directors, actors, singers and screenwriters in Mainland China.
Wang Taili, born in June 1969 in Weifang City, Shandong Province, is a musician and actor from Mainland China.
In 2005, Xiao Yang was a senior student majoring in advertising at the Beijing Film Academy. The first advertisement Xiao Yang received was Wang Taili, the owner of a cultural company. They signed a contract in Xiao Yang’s dormitory at the time. People become more and more familiar and develop into good friends.
In fact, neither of them sing professionally. They both liked music very much since they were young, so the two had the idea of cooperation. After the two established Chopstick Brothers in 2007, Wang Taili was responsible for writing the song and Xiao Yang was responsible for the director.
After forming the Chopstick Brothers group, their first song "Bless you, my dear" became popular all over the Internet instantly. What really made people all over the country know about the Chopsticks Brothers was in 2010, Xiao Yang and Wang Taili directed and acted in the micro film "Old Boy".
This nostalgic and dreamy micro-film became popular overnight and aroused the resonance of many netizens. The lyrics touched the hearts of many people born in the 70s and 80s. The two old boys played by Xiao Yang and Wang Taili recalled their dreams when they were young, and also reminded many people of who they were once.
In 2011, the new film "Father" written, directed and acted by the Chopsticks Brothers was released nationwide, and the song "Father" of the same name was also sung. This original song "Father" won the "Grateful Inspirational Golden Melody" on the "Global Chinese Chart", and the micro-film "Father" also won the Best Micro-Film Award. In 2012, he also won the Top Ten Golden Melody Awards.
In December 2011, Chopstick Brothers composed the song "Father". The drama understands that this song is Wang Taili's old father who died of illness during the filming of the micro-film "Old Boy" in 2011. Wang Taili deeply felt the pain and regret of the son's desire to be filial and not to treat each other, so he wrote the song "Father". At the same time that the micro-film
is broadcast, it is also a reminder to care for your father and not to have any regrets. In the micro-movie "Father", there is a scene of gratitude for the father to accompany his daughter to grow up, and finally to marry his daughter out, which also made countless netizens empathize and moved to tears.
In 2014, Chopsticks Brothers wrote, directed and acted in the movie "Old Boy Raptor Crossing the River". This movie tells the story of the adventure of two old boys desperately going abroad to find their dreams.
The promotional song "Little Apple" and the MV of this movie have been released on the Internet. Because the lyrics, melody and the dance moves in the MV are simple and easy to learn, they became popular all over the country overnight, and even attracted other countries to follow suit. And imitating, even the aunt who usually dances the square dance came to dance "Little Apple".
In 2015, Chopsticks Brothers won two awards for the most popular single of the year in Chinese and the most popular group of the year in Chinese with this divine comedy "Little Apple". The most popular Chopstick Brothers in recent years is the song "Little Apple", and it is this song that pushed the two's career to the highest point. The song
is not only sung across the country, but also very popular abroad, and is also the best international pop music.
Since "Little Apple" became popular, the two have never had other works. Their minds are no longer in the field of music, and both have entered the film and television circles. Xiao Yang starred in films such as "Modern Age", "Heavenly Commander", "Detective Chinatown 1", "Detective Chinatown 2", and "Super Express". Xiao Yang appeared frequently, but Wang Taili had basically faded out of the audience's vision.
Some people say that Brother Chopsticks has been disbanded, although they have not refuted thisIt’s a matter, but I’m afraid it’s really hard to see the two have the opportunity to perform together again. If possible, I sincerely hope that they can have new and good works presented to the audience. Do you support the Chopsticks brothers?
