If you don't know the Chopsticks Brothers, you must have heard the songs "Old Boy", "Father" and "Little Apple". In the past few years, these songs were played in the streets and alleys, and the square dancers were dancing. These songs were composed by the "Chopstick Brothers" Xiao Yang and Wang Taili, who are "screenwriters, directors, actors, music composers and singers" all in one composite combination.
"Chopstick Brothers" group
The two signed a contract in Xiao Yang's school dormitory, and then the two became more and more familiar with each other and developed into good friends. In fact, the two are not professional singers, both grew up particularly fond of music, so the two had the idea of cooperation. After the two set up the Chopstick Brothers in 2007, Wang Taili was responsible for writing the songs and Xiao Yang for directing them.
After establishing the Chopsticks Brothers group, the first song they sang, "Wish You Well, Dear," instantly became a hit across the internet. What really made the whole country know about the Chopsticks Brothers group was in 2010, when Xiao Yang and Wang Taili directed their own microfilm "Old Boy".
One fell into the road
The two previously released "Old Boy", "Father" and "Little Apple" are classics among classics, widely loved by the public. However, after 2015, the momentum of the Chopsticks Brothers has slowed down significantly, there is no comparison to previous works, the two members of the exposure rate also appeared to be a large gap, Wang Taili is obviously not as red-hot as Xiao Yang.
Since the "Little Apple" fire, the two no longer have other works, their minds are not in the field of music, are across into the film and television industry. Xiao Yang has been showing up a lot, but Wang Taili has basically faded out of the audience's view now.
Because nowadays Wang Taili seldom appears in front of the screen, but Xiao Yang will participate in various variety shows from time to time. I believe everyone should know that before Xiao Yang not only participated in many variety shows, but also starred in many film and television works.
While there is no obvious response, it is rare to see them on the same stage, and both of them seem to have their own pursuits, and it may be better for each other to develop separately. But the two brothers have been on different paths in recent years.
One of the most famous actors in the world
Shaw Yang, after becoming famous, focused more on cross-border, shifted his attention more to the screen. Several movies are with the more famous director cooperation, starred in the "Tang Renjie Detective", "Super Express", "Saints", and each of the box office is also good. It is also considered from the singer transition to become an actor, due to the great acting plus he himself has more popularity, many directors have seen him, it is said that Xiao Yang's annual income has reached the level of ten million, the value has been hundreds of millions of dollars.
Another member of the group, Wang Taili, seems to be doing less well, occasionally participating in variety shows. Although he performed well in "Masked Singer" before and attracted attention, his popularity has been slipping. There are even netizens bluntly said: almost disappeared!
Many people in the know broke the news that it turned out that he was concentrating on his own music, and it can also be seen from this incident that he really loves music very much, so there is no problem between the two, just everyone's hobbies and specialties are different, and I hope that they can bring more good works to everyone after that.
