At the award ceremony of the variety show "Family Years", the most heartwarming scene should be when the men's team Hulu brothers collectively presented the award to their eldest son, Sun Nan. Other awards are basically presented by the host He Jiong, but Sun Nan's "Golden Melody Star" was awarded by the Calabash Brothers, and the Calabash Brothers specifically told He Jiong beforehand that no matter what award Sun Nan won, they must come on stage to award it to him. They also A universal video has been prepared. No matter what award Sun Nan wins, it can be played before the award.
As soon as the video was broadcast, Sun Nan was so moved. When Brother Hulu came on stage to present the award to him, he couldn't help but burst into tears. That heartwarming and touching scene made Han Hong look "red-eyed" and "complained" that the women's team also gave her the award collectively.
So what is it about Sun Nan that makes him so attractive that the Hulu Brothers make videos and award awards to him? In fact, it can be summed up in three points: care, integration, and hard work. With these three points, he not only consolidated old friends but also made new ones.
care
Sun Nan's concern is everywhere. For example, he takes great care of his youngest teammate, Song Yaxuan of the Youth League. Before Song Yaxuan got along with Sun Nan, he felt that his parents were powerful, majestic, and distant beings. Therefore, when the guests gathered for the first time, Song Yaxuan, who was sitting next to Sun Nan, was under great pressure. Before recording this program, Song Yaxuan's vocal teacher warned him - Teacher Sun was a well-known figure in the mainland pop music scene at that time, and told him to learn more from his predecessors. But when I was really nervous when I sat with my first brother, I couldn't care less about studying.
Sun Nan’s resume is indeed quite beautiful. In 1987, in order to have the opportunity to be on a bigger stage, he left his hometown of Dalian and went to Beijing, the national cultural center, to work alone; in 1991, he was lucky enough to enter the art center of the famous composer Gu Jianfen; and then went to Hong Kong to develop; in 1995, Sun Nan officially Entered the mainland market and released the album "Life and Life", which included his representative work "Red Flag"; in 1997, he appeared on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for the first time and has appeared on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala 15 times in total; in 1999, he released the album "Aurora Australis", a single This album contains three classic tracks, "Come Back Soon", "See You or Be Parted", and "The Wind Blows North", the classic "Sun Nan Triple Play"; it was shortlisted for the "Best Artist in the World" at the European Music Awards in 2013...
So far, he has won a total of 52 awards for male singers, including the record for the most awards for male singers on the China Song Chart. He has released 13 albums with sales exceeding 10 million. In the face of such great results, it's no wonder that Xiao Song, who is under 20, is nervous.
But it doesn’t matter, Brother Nan loves children. As the eldest Calabash Baby, his gigantic switch was not triggered automatically, but to "protect the calf." Since Song Yaxuan was in his own group when the team was divided, he would protect it to the end. For example, Brother Nan had a "big fight" with Han Hong who "bullied" Xuan Bao and Longlong on stage because of "Calabash Seven Babies" Song Yaxuan and "Water Baby" Wang Sulong, and even went to the Five Golden Flowers to "make trouble" during the preparations. . Another example is that Song Yaxuan couldn't hit some of the high notes, and Sun Nan said that if you sing low, you can do whatever is comfortable for you. Seeing that Xuan Bao was not in good condition, he asked if you were feeling uncomfortable, and tried to find ways to relieve the other person's pressure; When his old friend Ku Juji fell ill, Sun Nan came up with the idea to help him sing...
Integrate into
Although Sun Nan is already half a century old and much older than many guests, he does not rely on his old age and always strives to integrate into the circle of young people's friends, giving full play to his talents that he does not understand. You have to be inquiring spirit. When you encounter an Internet vocabulary that you don’t understand but that young people love to use, you will ask to the end - what is a braggart? What does yyds mean? What does Maillard mean? What is six? What is "Zun Du Fake Du"...
Brother Nan will also join in the love and death games of young people from time to time.For example, when Zhou Shen and Wang Sulong were "instigated", they went to the women's team to "vomit bad temper" for Song Yaxuan; for example, when Song Yaxuan complained to him that Zhou Shen and Wang Sulong were "bullying" him, he said that the Shenlong brothers were complimenting him...
Work hard
Sun Nan will take a nap from time to time in the preparation room because of his age, but after taking a nap, he will almost only work hard. He keeps practicing singing with his mobile phone. While other brothers are chatting or taking a rest, he is the only one practicing singing. , and is quite devoted, not disturbed by the hustle and bustle of brothers. For example, when I collaborated with Yu Kewei on "The River", I never missed an opportunity to practice. Whenever I had time, whether it was during preparation or whatever, I would take out my phone and practice. For this reason, his brothers all praised him for his Zen mentality and his ability to stay out of trouble.
It was because of this effort that he did not rest on his laurels blindly, so he won four of the eight golden songs in the four competitions, becoming the guest with the most golden songs, and successfully won the "Golden Song Star".
Old friend Leo Ku is positive about Sun Nan's achievements. The two met in Hong Kong 30 years ago. That day, Ku Juji won the first rookie award in his life. Sun Nan and others went to have a fireside with Ku Juji to celebrate him. Sun Nan had been debuting for a few years at that time, and he envied Ku Juji because he had never won a Newcomer Award. To this day, Ku Juji still says that Sun Nan's achievements cannot be defined by a Newcomer Award.
After the program "Continuous Sound", the relationship between the two old friends has taken a further step. In the special video prepared by the Calabash Brothers for Sun Nan, Ku Juji wanted to say "Thirty" to Sun Nan who worked with him thirty years ago. Years have passed, and the people around me are still there, and this feeling is very happy. I think even if the show is over, Sun Nan and I will continue to work together, and even if we are older, we will still We sang together."
As juniors, Wang Sulong and Zhou Shen also admire Sun Nan's achievements. Wang Sulong wants to say to Sun Nan twenty years from now, "No matter whether you are still the number one brother in the music industry twenty years from now, I believe that you will definitely be the best b4 singer in Asia, 'Happy My Nan Brother.'"
Zhou Shen is very I'm glad I didn't play songs in the same era as Sun Nan, otherwise, as soon as "See You or Be Parted", "Come Back Soon" and "The Wind Blows to the North" came out, that north wind would blow me away. "But I feel very lucky to be able to live in an era with Brother Nan. Brother Nan has been teaching us how to sing and understand music, so I feel that I have always owed a thank you to Brother Nan."
In his acceptance speech, Sun Nan said that if one day he sang under a street lamp, he would definitely hold a hot pot and invite his seven brothers over. He believed they would all come. It can be seen that Sun Nan also cherishes the Calabash brothers and hopes that their friendship will last forever.
