Zhou Xun and Aya took a taxi in Hainan and asked the driver: "Have you heard of Chen Chusheng?"
The driver replied proudly: "I heard it! We voted for him as 'Fast Man'!"
Zhou Xun asked: "Why should we vote for him?"
The driver replied: "Because he is us Hainan natives, we have to cheer for him!"
Zhou Xun and Aya went to Chen Chusheng's hometown of Sanya, Hainan. They were warmly received by Chen Chusheng, who introduced them to their "fa child" and visited their childhood school. Also tasted the authentic coconut chicken.
People from his hometown helped Chen Chusheng win the championship
According to Chen Chusheng and his hair boy, when Chen Chusheng participated in the Fast Man Competition, he did not notify his family at first. After my father saw it on TV, he printed a lot of flyers and distributed them from the farm to Sanya City, but the effect was very little.
Later, Chen Chusheng’s father set up a TV in the yard. During every game, he invited neighbors to watch and taught everyone to vote for Chen Chusheng. Some elderly people cannot send text messages, so children do it for them.
His followers rode motorcycles and visited 97 surrounding farms, calling on fellow farmers to vote for Chen Chusheng. During
's participation in the competition, the program team prohibited the contestants from using mobile phones. Chen Chusheng had no idea what his hometown people had done for him. When
was approaching the finals, the program team arranged for Chen Chusheng to go back to his hometown to hold a canvassing meeting. It was expected that 8,000 people would come to the scene, but 50,000 people came that day.
In the end, Chen Chusheng won the championship with an absolute advantage of 700,000 votes ahead of Su Xing. Su Xing and Wei Chen won the runner-up and third runner-up respectively.
Rebellious young man in a small town
Three young people have proved: Chen Chusheng has been a rebellious young man since he was a child!
In their small group, Chen Chusheng is the one who makes the final decision, and the other brothers follow his arrangements. He led his friends to climb mountains and spend the night in the mountains; he paddled bamboo rafts and almost fell into the water and died; he rode a motorcycle around... Although he was often beaten up by his parents because of this, it did not affect their friendship.
Chen Chusheng said that the people in his small group are all "boring", while Fa Xiaoer countered by saying that "you are the leader".
In 1999, in order to pursue his music dream, Chen Chusheng skipped school and came to his brother's repair shop. He made money by repairing motorcycles and engaged in music creation at the same time.
At that time, he was living in an attic where he could not stand upright. It was extremely hot and stuffy, and his hands were filled with motor oil that could never be washed off. It was in such a difficult environment that he composed the song "The Voice of a Small Town".
Later, his father couldn’t resist him, so he asked a friend who owned a restaurant in Shenzhen to take care of him, and personally sent his son to Shenzhen to start his “dream-building journey.”
After Chen Chusheng left, the repair shop left a tape containing several original songs he had recorded.
He is used to saying a few words before singing each song, one of which is "You must become famous before you can return to your hometown."
Chen Chusheng's neighbor's brother heard this sentence. Because he was still young, he mistakenly thought that the long-haired and artistic elder brother he liked would "come back only after his head falls to the ground" .
Chen Chusheng's nickname is "Lili"
Chen Chusheng took Zhou Xun and Aya to visit his alma mater. The students took advantage of the break from get out of class to play guitar and sing Chen Chusheng's songs.
Seeing that Chen Chusheng was an itchy guitarist, he started playing guitar with his classmates. He also curiously asked his classmates: "What is your father's name?"
Because the farm is not big, based on their age, most of these classmates' parents are Chen Chusheng's same age. People, even old classmates. After
confirmed it, sure enough, this male classmate’s father was Chen Chusheng’s elementary school classmate.
After the call was connected, the old classmate quickly recognized Chen Chusheng's voice and called his nickname "Lili".
Chen Chusheng's parents called him "Brother". Because of his accent, others often heard him as "Lili"; over time, his friends and classmates called him "Lili".
Chen Chusheng told his old classmate, "I left my phone number to the child. He seems to have little confidence in singing. If he has any difficulty playing the guitar in the future, please call me anytime."
The only and precious thing in his hometown
Chen Chusheng is 19 years old I am 43 years old after leaving my hometown. The time I have spent traveling abroad has exceeded the time I spent in my hometown.
He said frankly: "When I return to my hometown now, I sometimes unconsciously doubt whether the previous memories are true. My hometown has a little more decoration, maybe because of my work, it has a little more aura, so when people in my hometown come into contact with me, I also added some modifications; maybe I added some modifications naturally, and it is difficult for me to go back to the 19-year-old stage. I don’t want that modification, but there is no way, no one can change it. "
Maybe for many. For people, after success and fame, never returns to his hometown without returning to his hometown, just like walking in brocade at night.
But after Chen Chusheng became famous, he experienced a sky-high contract termination, being banned, and a sluggish career, and then became famous through "Reemployment Boy Group" and "Breaking the Waves" - more than ten years of ups and downs, made him look down on fame and fortune, and also More emphasis on family and friendship.
His hometown has become the "Peach Blossom Land" of Chen Chusheng's soul. He said that every time he returns to his hometown and sleeps in his own little bed, he always feels at ease; the next morning, his parents will yell at him to get up for dinner, which is what he thinks is the biggest problem. happiness.
