Xiao Jingteng: From a "little gangster" to a rain god, a bad boy's counterattack

Speaking of Xiao Jingteng , what do you think of first?

God of Rain. It's wicked to say that as soon as Lao Xiao started the concert, he almost went wherever he went, which was more punctual than the weather forecast.

For this reason, some netizens even thought that he was the reincarnation of the Dragon Lord, who could call the wind and the rain, or was related to his birthday, which is really a bit of a laugh!

However, compared with the well-known title of " Rain God ", what many people don't know is that he was once a "bad boy" who had been in the juvenile control office.

Even Cai Kangyong asked him in "Flowers and All Things": "If you want to make your story into a movie, would you like it?"

In fact, Xiao Jingteng's life experience was originally a "bad boy" comeback. The degree of excitement is comparable to a movie.

01

to the dark youth

Like the male protagonist in the youth pain film, Xiao Jingteng was born in a poor and violent family.

's father is a taxi driver, but he often fights with others because of his hot temper, so he is basically losing money when he goes out to make money. What's even more frightening is that he also vented all the unsatisfactory things outside to his son, which left a big psychological shadow on the young Xiao Jingteng.

Under the influence of his father's mistake, Xiao Jingteng thought that as long as he became "cruel" like his father, he would not be bullied in school, so he became a completely bad boy.

I learned to smoke, fight, and even have my own small group at the age of 9. In order to establish his prestige in the group, Xiao Jingteng learned to "pretend to be generous", and the capital of "pretended to be generous" often steals one thousand Taiwan dollars from grandma to ask everyone to eat KFC, and smokes that adults are reluctant to smoke.

But he forgot that all the money was earned by grandma's hard work, and even got caught by the city management from time to time.

At this time, the rebellious teenager would never have thought that stealing grandma's hard money would become the most regrettable thing in his life. Later, he could only look at grandma's relics in tears in the show.

Under the domination of this nameless anger, he became more and more surly. He rushed to beat anyone if he was upset. It really confirmed the saying "impulse is the devil". Under the constant clamor of the devil in his heart, he committed the crime. Made a big mistake.

suspected that the little fat man in the same class secretly gave the teacher a small report, he assembled a large group of brothers, and beat the little fat man to cerebral hemorrhage.

And this time he didn't wait for his father's brutal beating, but he waited for the "terrible" juvenile office, which was the darkest moment of his youth.

The Light of Destiny: Music

What people did not expect is that in the juvenile office where everyone feels "terrible", Xiao Jingteng felt the gentleness and calmness that he had never had before. Slowly, he became more and more able. Adapt to life in the juvenile control office.

is here. After he has done bad things, he will be asked by the teacher why, instead of beating him like a father, he even likes this place a bit.

He can open his heart and talk to the teacher about his hobbies: basketball and music, the teacher looked at the blood and light in his eyes, and said to him something that he will never forget : "You have so much energy to fight, why use it Come and play the drums." The words

woke him up, and at the same time knocked on his door to the road of music. Teacher

persuaded Xiao Jingteng's parents that they were willing to spend part of the money to let Xiao Jingteng learn jazz drums, but they were skeptical that Xiao Jingteng could learn this.

Sure enough, in just three months, Xiao Jingteng had regained his habit. He fought again and was still with the teacher who taught his music because the teacher misunderstood him.

But this result is very gratifying to the parents, because they finally have a reason to stop Xiao Jingteng learning drums.

But the assistant teacher couldn’t bear to see such a gifted student stop here, so the teacher tried to persuade XiaoJingteng's parents, finally Xiao Jingteng can continue to learn jazz drums again.

may be because Xiao Jingteng, who has devoted all his energy to studying music, is no longer as irritable as before, but has become extremely taciturn.

In 2005, Xiao Jingteng was eighteen years old, and he started his career in residence.

From Libra branches, Taoyuan Station, Qifenzui to Bali 55 Cafe, Zhongli Highland PUB, his resident singing track has never stopped. During the time when

was singing in residence, Xiao Jingteng did not ask for a day off. In order to let customers understand the songs he sang, he was madly learning Chinese songs every day. It is precisely because of this unremitting effort that he has Pop singers learned various techniques in singing.

The mainland novel that Duo once heard Xiao Jingteng sing in a Taipei restaurant, he also wrote a note and handed him : "If your voice can be heard by more people, I bet it will be popular."

The idea of ​​entering the entertainment industry grew seeds in his heart.

The smooth "Rain God"

In 2007, under the instigation of his predecessors, Xiao Jingteng made his debut on the "Super Avenue of Stars" as a kicker. After singing three songs

, he became popular.

's exposure rate of only three times is enough to make his restaurant and PUB sing full during his singing time, including the position, one is hard to find. After

, he was invited to a big show, which unexpectedly made him the number one in the ratings of each show at the same time, and made him popular in Taiwan, mainland China, Hong Kong and Singapore and Malaysia.

At this time, Xiao Jingteng did not sign a contract to release a film debut. For a while, he became a sweet pastry in the eyes of major brokerage companies. Major record companies and brokerage companies across Taiwan launched a battle against him.

Finally in 2008, Jam Hsiao officially signed with Warner Records , and since then began his superstar road. In the first year of signing for

, his first solo album "Xiao Jingteng's Album of the Same Name" won the rankings in the first week of its release. At the same time, he also participated in "Entertainment 100%", "Happy Camp" and other high-profile variety show. In the second year of signing

, his second album "Princess" became popular throughout Asia with lightning speed, which also established his status as a super singer. After

, he quickly won the best newcomer and best male singer of the golden song and won many awards.

After 2012, the title of "Rain God" has made his popularity even higher, so that when everyone mentions "Rain God" today, they can immediately correspond to Xiao Jingteng.

may be because the family was too poor when he was a child. After he became famous, Xiao Jingteng began to "crazy" to make up for his material deficiencies. In the show,

once introduced his eight-story mansion, with 6 floors above ground and 2 floors underground. Only him, 6 dogs and 4 cats lived in an area of ​​3000 square meters.

likes figures, so I use one floor to place my collection.

underground he also designed a basketball court, the wall is filled with thousands of pairs of sneakers, usually Jay Chou will come to him to play basketball. There is also a super large swimming pool on the top floor of

, where you can chat with friends, swim and have afternoon tea. How about

, is this kind of life the life you yearn for?

Seeing this, many people may wonder: How can a person's transformation be so big? Where did Xiao Jingteng who was once "tempest" go?

I think he has already learned to hide and transform, and put all the confrontation with his father into his music.

In fact, the once passionate boy did not lose his blood, just like this time he sang his classic song "The Queen" again at the Tide Music Festival:

The night is too beautiful, even though it is dangerous,

will always have people staying up at night with dark eyes

Love is too beautiful, even though it is dangerous,

, I am willing to lose all the tears of overspending for a thousand years

. Leaving, it's just a different way of existence.
