On August 31, 2018, Ren Xianqi posted a set of photos on Weibo and teased himself: "Xiaoqi has become fatter, from 74kg to 100kg. In this age, only Xiaoqi is so desperate... "In the photo, he is standing on the concert stage. Apart from the visible figure and blessedness, the tough light in his eyes still flickers under the spotlight.
For this "fat uncle" who sacrificed for art, fans shouted, "Hurry up and lose weight, I can't stand it anymore!" However, the OS in Ren Xian's heart is: You don't need to explain too much. Fatty makes you collapse like this, indicating that I succeeded. . Just a few months later, Ren Xianqi lost 34 pounds and went on the hot search, but the movie stopped. Some people said that he was busy working for nothing, but for him, this is just an effort to understand the role as an actor.
This year, Ren Xianqi, who has returned to his status as a singer, once again launched the "Qi Ji" concert tour, sharing his mental journey with fans over the years with a classic song.
"Concert must have special features"
The name of this concert tour, Ren Xianqi used the name "Qiji" 11 years ago. This is a kind of sentiment, but also to remind myself not to forget my original intention.
is different from most singers who choose big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou to start their tour. Ren Xianqi chose Luoyang as the starting point for the tour: "I hope to go to some cities that I haven’t been to for this tour. I would also consider starting from a big city before. , Because the atmosphere and conditions of the concert are relatively mature in big cities. But this time I suddenly thought, why have I never been to some cities? In addition, many of my songs have Chinese style elements, so This time I chose Luoyang, the ancient capital of the thirteen dynasties." When talking about Luoyang, Ren Xianqi also praised as many treasures: "Luoyang is an ancient capital, and there are many beautiful legends, such as'Luoyang paper is expensive', why is it expensive? I want to personally Let’s take a look. The other is the Longmen Grottoes, peony flowers, etc. It is indeed a beautiful garden city. And this time I invited a guzheng teacher in Luoyang to help me accompany the "Flower and Moon Full Night". In this tour, I will do some more new attempts to make myself feel new. "
" In addition, in the next Suzhou station, I also hope to add some local characteristics and present Chinese style things. Suzhou is in I am also a poetic city in my heart, so I can prepare songs such as "A Beautiful Moon and a Full Night" and "Spring Flowers" as a single point to prepare. I will also consider letting some local traditional musicians join in. Unique cooperation."
In the hearts of fans, Ren Xianqi’s classic old songs are memories of a generation of youth. Before this official tour, he had been preparing for a long time: "Although this is only a formal tour, I used to have performances every year, including the New Year's Eve concert. I have been filming in the past few years and spent a lot of time. , So it can only be carried out in this dotted form. The tour must be prepared with concentration, so taking advantage of the suspension of the filming work, I decided to put the tour plan on the premise. Of course, the past few years I’m always preparing for the tour. I started thinking about it three or four years ago, so even if the plan is advanced, the overall structure is already relatively mature."
"Even if there are only two people buying tickets, I have to sing seriously"
Fans have been waiting for the tour for too long. Faced with the endless stream of newcomers and the ever-changing situation in the music world, will you worry about your box office before ticketing? Faced with this problem, Ren Xianqi shouted "the pressure is great": "If you are not nervous at the box office, it must be a lie, because there are too many terrible singers and orchestras around me. For example, Mayday, they kill as soon as the ticket is issued. At the Bird’s Nest! Of course I will be under pressure. My younger brothers are really terrifying. But I also think of another aspect. Consumers have different habits. The whole family may come to see my concert. Together, it is different from the impulsive mentality of young people to buy tickets. In fact, I was lucky because the tickets were all sold out. I think this is an encouragement, because even if there are only two people buying tickets, I have to Sing seriously, so this will become a motivation to urge me to prepare more seriously and not to disappoint the fans."
The tickets for this Luoyang concert were sold out, and even the organizers gave Ren Xianqi’s box office appeal. He gave a very high evaluation: "My tour is called'Qiji'. After the tickets are sold out, the organizer tells me youIt really created a miracle, because the local concert market had not been so popular before, and there was no such big response. I think it might be because my songs are more approachable and the whole family can listen to them together. So I am lucky because my music range is wider. "
wanted to make fans worth the fare. Ren Xianqi had high standards and strict requirements on every detail of the stage: "Many people told me that if you sell tickets so well, you must make money every day and earn a lot of money." Boman, I wanted to say that it was'damn it', because I might still lose money. For the effect, I desperately spent money on lighting, audio, etc., which also led to more and more programs and more and more arrangement. The more complicated. In fact, if I really want to make money, I can just pick up the business performance. I will leave after singing two or three songs, right? So, the sense of accomplishment that the tour brings me is different, and the things I get are different. "
" I'm quite lucky, there are many famous songs"
In addition to the rich program arrangement and super "explosive" stage effect of this "Qiji" concert, Ren Xianqi also specially set up a fan interaction session, but this link did not Let him feel a little "heart-tired": "I think a good concert should take into account the psychology of the audience, three hours, how to make everyone feel not bored, and the meaning is still unfinished, you have to deal with the transition, the excitement When I am excited, I am moved when I should be moved. In terms of repertoire, I don't know what you want to listen to. I only bring out the most popular songs. When it comes to this, I am quite lucky. There are many famous songs. I don’t know how to sing new songs, and the concert is not a new song conference, right? But some fans will click some previous non-title songs, which makes me very touched, because whether this song is popular or not, it affects some people invisibly. But it also gave me a headache, because I basically never sang some songs, and I forgot after writing them. So I can only apologize to the audience in a ‘dead face’, I hope I can remedy it next time. "The complicated mechanism on the
stage is also a problem that must be faced by Ren Xianqi, who is experienced in performances: "I usually think about how to move during the rehearsal, because many of the institutions are of the kind of lifting. If you sing too intoxicated and accidentally fall, it's quite troublesome. I will think in advance where the audience's vision will be biased and where should I go to interact with them, so every rehearsal is a combat exercise for me and the musicians, and safety is the most important thing. "
Regarding the new works that fans are looking forward to, Ren Xianqi also exclusively revealed in the interview: "The new album is already in preparation and is still in the stage of collecting songs. For the new album, I have been brewing, and have been waiting, after the release, you will know why you have to wait so long. In fact, making music is the same as filming. I didn't rush to release new works because I had to prepare seriously. It’s better to make one good movie a year than to release ten bad movies at once, right? In terms of quality, I have to pass myself first. "
is different from the music market more than ten years ago. The entire environment has undergone earth-shaking changes. This is also a question that Ren Xianqi needs to consider when preparing new works: "Now if you release a CD and give it to others, they have to Think about where to play? Because it’s all digitized now, and the number of downloads is not under our control, so in the face of economic benefits and other issues, there will be more things to consider. In the current environment, many songs are released without careful attention to detail, which leads to the songs with some regrets, as if they were not done so well. For me personally, I still strive to be perfect according to my original standards, polish it well, and then launch it. After all, I have been making music for so long, and the requirements for music will be even higher. "
" I hope to complete "Horse Racing" in the future." The
movie "Horse Racing" tells the story of a decadent little character who was never accepted until he woke up and decided to run a marathon in a desperate manner to find himself back. In fact, there is another level of meaning, which is used to describe a person who is irresponsible and full of nonsense. This film that sounds passionate and inspirational, although filming is suspended, but in order to portray the role before, Ren Xianqi really realized that he became a fat man. This experience made him unforgettable for life: "I used special makeup to get fat, but after communicating with the director, I hope to really eat fat and experience that mentality and posture. Many people around me said to me, ‘you should have a good meal, right? "I said" happywhat? I'm almost crying! During the whole process of gaining weight, I still need to exercise, because I have to control the proportion of fat. Every day, I would have to stuff a lot of very viscous nutritional supplements, eat chocolate, and stomach acid would flow back into my throat almost every night, and the whole person can be awakened in the middle of the night. "
" After gaining weight, I really felt how difficult it is to be a fat man: I can't reach it when I squat down and tie my shoelaces. It is easy to pant and sweat, and then it is really painful to run a marathon. Waiting until the beginning of weight loss is a painful process. There should be no salt in the meals, the amount of training should be doubled, and aerobic exercise should be increased. At that time, the whole person was just like the advertisement said-‘emptied’, which later led to the entire endocrine disorder. For this role, I really paid a heavy price. But if you think about it carefully, if you don't have this experience, you won't have such a feeling. In fact, "Horse Racing" is really a very good script, and I hope to finish it in the future. "
Although the future of "Horse Racing" is still unknown, this summer "The Silent Witness" starring Ren Xianqi will soon meet everyone on the big screen: "There are Zhang Jiahui, Yang Zi, and many Hong Kong people in this drama. The actor is a typical Hong Kong police film. What’s more interesting is that this Hong Kong police film is directed by Hollywood director Renee Haring. He has filmed "Die Hard 2" and other blockbusters. He is very good at shooting action scenes, especially in such confined spaces. The audience entered a different situation. "
As an actor, Ren Xianqi respects every role and feels their body and soul. As a singer, he is in awe of the stage and strives for excellence in his works. As a race car driver, he takes every journey As a challenge; as a documentary director, he explores every inch of magical land with a unique vision; as an idol, he will seriously remind fans to "don't come to pick up the plane, don't give gifts"... he said optimistically When he switched between multiple identities, he allowed other identities to rest. In the face of the new environment of big waves and sand, he still maintained a heart of innocence, not arrogant or impetuous, forge ahead, and use the best works and stage to give back To all those who love him, let those who have stayed in the youth of countless people more profound.
