Andy Lau singing China in Taipei ignited the patriotic enthusiasm of netizens. Some netizens lamented, "The biggest celebrities in Hong Kong are Andy Lau and Jackie Chan.", "There is so much pressure to insist on singing this song in Taiwan.", "Finally I know why Andy Lau has been famous for 40 years."

"Chinese "" is the song that Andy Lau first sang when Hong Kong returned to China in 1997. With a popular and shocking style, he sang a new generation of popular patriotic songs. The song "Chinese" was originally written to reshape the national consensus when Hong Kong returned to China, and was later sung across the country.

If you listen carefully to the words - "Five thousand years of wind and rain, how many dreams have been hidden, the yellow face and the black eyes are always a smile, the eight thousand miles of mountains and rivers are like a song, no matter where you come from Where will we go..." You will find that there are not many ideological expressions in this song, but only ethnic characteristics, national history, great rivers and mountains, and hand in hand progress. Mainland China and Taiwan are of the same origin. This song has brought the hearts of hundreds of millions of Chinese people closer and condensed the national blood of five thousand years.

Andy Lau was in the period when Hong Kong entertainment industry was at its peak and had the greatest influence. Nowadays, there are superstars who can still be named, such as Tony Leung , Stephen Chow , Tony Leung , Chow Yun-fat , Leslie Cheung , etc., basically He was from that period, among the new generation in Hong Kong, and not many people know him now. During the period when the stars of that generation were all shining brightly,

was the most popular in the Mainland for the longest time, influenced the three generations of old, middle and young people for the longest time, and the one with the most upright idol image is undoubtedly the second person besides Andy Lau. Compared with other superstars, Andy Lau has always had the inspirational label of hard work, hard work, and God's reward for hard work. But apart from this, what keeps him popular is actually his view of the overall situation, which can also be said to be aware of current affairs.

html When Hong Kong returned to China in 1977, the mainland was still a poor relative. Many Hong Kong artists disdained being associated with the mainland and stayed as far away from this poor relative as possible.

But in 1997, Andy Lau sang a song "The Chinese". At that time, he was ridiculed by the Hong Kong media: "It's too old-fashioned." After the release of "The Chinese", Andy Lau was ridiculed by the media again, and many newspapers were extremely mean. Satirizing Andy Lau for being "old-fashioned": Wearing a long gown and singing out again!

Faced with the media's attacks, Andy Lau did not compromise, but went head-to-head with them. One year when he participated in "Zhiyun Dinner", Andy Lau said angrily: What's wrong with the gown? (Chinese traditional clothing) I don’t know if the person who said this is Chinese!

What I didn’t expect was that the Chinese was the only one in Asia to have sales exceeding one million, and it became instantly popular all over the country, slapping many mockers in the face.

On the days when Hong Kong returned, Andy Lau still wore Chinese clothes to sing this song. Later, Andy Lau explained at an award show: "Maybe people think this song is too vulgar, but he is always named after you. ”

Andy Lau’s words are also true. At that time, our country was indeed very backward and gave people the feeling of “earth” everywhere. However, no matter how “earth” it is, it is still your motherland, and no matter how “earth” it is, it is also the source of your blood. As a person, you must not forget your roots and always remember that you are "Chinese."

In 1995, before the return of Hong Kong, when the Spring Festival Gala was still a small stage that Hong Kong looked down upon, who was the first big-name Hong Kong star to come? Still Andy Lau.

In fact, Andy Lau came to the mainland for development earlier, dating back to 1991. In May and June 1991, severe floods occurred in many places in China, leaving 2 million people homeless. Many Hong Kong artists performed charity performances to raise funds for the disaster areas, and Andy Lau actively participated in them.

But the first program Andy Lau performed was not singing, but chest-breaking. Because there was a boss who was willing to donate 1 million yuan on the condition that Andy Lau performs this show.

Andy Lau was lying on the ground at that time, and the stone slab did not move at all after the first hammer hit.He tried his best to stand up and took another blow, but the stone slab was still intact. It wasn't until the third hammer hit hard that the stone slab fell into pieces. At the same time, Andy Lau, who had been hit three times, spat out a mouthful of blood.

Just when people were worried about his injury, he smiled and said: "Blood is thicker than water!"

In 1998, Hong Kong Ming Pao reported that Andy Lau was known as the most popular Hong Kong singer in the mainland. He was hand-picked by the State Council On behalf of Hong Kong, he performed for the celebration of the 20th anniversary of China's reform and opening up at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

Later in the Beijing Olympics, Andy Lau was not in Beijing Welcome You. He was the ambassador of the Chinese Paralympic Games and the vice chairman of the China Disabled Persons Welfare Foundation. He made an album to cheer for the Paralympics, called Everyone is No.1. Since 1996, Andy Lau has sponsored disabled people with RMB 100,000 every year. When Chinese disabled athletes come to Hong Kong, Andy Lau will treat them to dinner. Regardless of their results, Andy Lau gives every Chinese disabled athlete a self-made gold medal. He uses his own Way, silently support.

Which Hong Kong star wants to sing Chinese anymore? Sorry, you are not qualified. Later, I wanted to attend the Spring Festival Gala, but I’m sorry, your card wasn’t strong enough. But when you were a poor boy, if you invited him to a meal, he would recognize you as your friend.

On the stage of the Taipei Arena, the melody of the song "Chinese" sounded again. Andy Lau once again wore the "long gown" that was ridiculed by some media in the past, and sang the song "Chinese" with great momentum. The song is majestic and infectious. The stage scenery is full of simplified Chinese characters.

Some Taiwanese fans said: "Andy Lau is not only our idol, he is also a spirit, he is our belief." It is true.

The reason why Andy Lau can be famous all his life lies in two words, one virtue and one China.
