The young post-90s may know little about him, but the song Friends is definitely the youth of post-80s. "Do you still remember me? If you have a new shore, please leave me?" Can hum a few words.
Besides rock and roll, Cang Tianshuo also has a label "Big Brother". When brothers call each other "Big Brother", they are not only older, but also "three sworn relationships in Taoyuan"-like Jin Lan. Especially in China society where the patriarchal clan system has not faded, "Big Brother" is not only moral, but also the person who gives orders and the mediator of disputes. Insiders will sell big brother a face.
When brothers are in trouble, they need help. Cang Tianshuo made a number of friends, such as Ge You and Richie. Even after he was released from prison, he still had many contacts. Eldest brother is in trouble, but he doesn't want to worry his younger brother. After he was diagnosed with liver cancer, he refused to visit his friends, hoping that they would have a new "other shore" and forget him.
Some people are sought after, others are spurned. His talent, his loyalty to the liver, his connection with gangs and his imprisonment made Cang Tianshuo remembered by everyone.
"Rock" Cang Tianshuo
The spring breeze of reform blows all over the earth, blowing in not only the eager pursuit of money, but also the passionate and poetic years. After the repressed sixties and seventies, China people's creative desire broke out. It was the golden age of poetry, music, dance and other arts, and it was a rare era with no imprisonment and vigorous personality.
Although born in a worker's family, Cang Tianshuo began to learn piano at the age of six. At the age of 20, he officially started "rock life" and joined the "tumbler band". His first novel, Prayer of the Heart, and I am like that flaming firebird silently, sang the sad past in love. I can't accompany you to the end of the world, so you can take my songs away.
/kloc-released his solo album "Rushing into the Forbidden Zone" in 0/987. At that time, Cui Jian's "Rock on the Long March" was still in production, which may be the first mainland rock album.
Cang Tianshuo, the cover character of this album, is dressed in a black suit, with an ordinary buzz cut and no smile. Now it seems that there is no meaning of rock and roll. The rough and muddy jazz piano, funk bass and drum set had a strong sense of rhythm, which was of great pioneering significance at that time.
The album My Ten Years released by 1995 became one of the best-selling albums of 1996, with sales exceeding150,000 copies. Among them, the title song Friends also topped the list of Beijing Music Station for eight consecutive weeks. Just as rock and roll advocates the truth of people and expresses sincere feelings with music, Cang Tianshuo has a childlike view of friendship, "heart for heart, affection for affection".
"Big Brother" Cang Tianshuo
"icing on the cake is easy, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow." Friends always make friends because they have the same hobbies or interests, so they lack the compulsion of blood relationship. When faced with difficulties, they always seem to be unsafe. Friends can share joys and sorrows, but they can't share joys and sorrows. Once it becomes a bitter friendship, it may be better than ordinary friends and become lifelong friends.
Xu Wei suffered from severe depression because his music was not appreciated. During his stay in Beijing, few friends came to see him, and his work and rest were extremely chaotic. He even needs company. Therefore, he and his wife returned to Xi 'an to recuperate.
The wife's anxiety can be imagined, and the doctor gave them a suggestion-more contact with friends, more chatting, more thinking about other things, and the symptoms will be much better. As a result, the so-called friend's phone rang once, and the friend always used something as an excuse to shirk or directly refuse.
Only when Cang Tianshuo came, he brought a car full of musical instruments for his good friends to chat with, hoping to enlighten Xu Wei with music, which made Xu Wei cheer up, pick up the guitar and become a cheerful Xu Wei.
Dou Wei believes that everyone knows about the incident of setting fire to paparazzi cars in Zhuo Wei for entertainment and gossip. This kind of deliberate destruction of other people's property and even endangering public safety must also be punished by law. But in the end, Dou Wei was not severely sentenced. It is said that Cang Tianshuo used his contacts to help Dou Wei operate, so as to reduce his sentence.
Besides Xu Wei and Dou Wei, Cang Tianshuo helped many people. Anyone who has had friendship with him is willing to call him "Big Brother".
After Cang Tianshuo's illness, it may be the need for rest, or he didn't want to be a timely helper and let his friends visit him. But at his funeral, Cui Jian, Ge You, Yin and others all attended, and Dou Wei even wrote a song to see his old friend off.
"Mafia" Cang Tianshuo
The entertainment circle is always inextricably linked with the "underworld". People who rely on beauty and talent want to get a place in a materialistic society, and they always have to climb trees or become trees themselves. The more they watch, the more vulnerable they are to temptation. In an instant, they may have crossed the line between black and white, but they are not really bitter.
After Friends became famous, the first Friends Disco in Cang Tianshuo officially opened on 1999. During this period, he met Lu Changchun, a Northeastern who took him to a bar.
In 2002, Langfang Fourth Street opened, and they invited Cang Tianshuo to be the image spokesperson. Cang Tianshuo took a fancy to a three-story building and wanted to build the biggest bar in Langfang. The inviter conveniently gave him the building almost for free. So he and his "friend" Sun Baohe opened a bar here.
During their "newlyweds", the bar operated well, but gradually Cang Tianshuo felt that their experiences and ideas didn't match, so Sun Baohe left his friend disco.
Sun Bao and himself opened a bigger disco at the railway station and courted Cang Tianshuo. Later, because of the previous financial problems, the two men had another argument and finally agreed to fight in the square. At that time, the general manager of my friend disco was Lu Changchun, and things got out of hand.
On June 2 1 day, 2003, at about 1 in the morning, two couples of men and women stood in the railway station square, bare-armed, carrying machetes and steel pipes. The scene was once chaotic. Ten minutes later, a dozen people were lying on the ground in the square, 1 one died and two were slightly injured. Cang Tianshuo also lived in prison.
After he was released from prison, Cang Tianshuo began to believe in Buddhism. During his cancer-the last period of his life, he even refused to visit his friends. He talks less and less, and he doesn't want to communicate more with others. He only reviews his life in his spare time, and may sigh: "Success is also a friend, and failure is also a friend."
Fortunately, he helped his friends for a long time, so that he was still surrounded by friends in times of crisis.
Such people can make new friends in prison and even work with prison guards to create a new song; Such a person can still have friends around him after he is released from prison, and even publicly congratulate him on his return.
At the end of his life, he refused to be visited by his friends, hoping to bring himself to his friends, but he didn't want his friends to be sad and stagnant because of him. I am still remembered by my friends after my death, and I have always missed it.
