Zhuang Nu (right)
WASHINGTON Thirty years ago, Teresa soft graceful indulge in the After thirty years, first met on the television Zhuang Nu, the original is white-haired, hale and hearty Laosou, leaving the mainland 60 years of wandering, talking about the motherland and the Chinese culture and tears.
Zhuang Nu Han led his disciples to perform, the reporter an exclusive interview with his appointment, one hour early to wait in the lobby, unexpectedly encountered Zhuang Nu crutches, leading scorer in his wife, from the fascinating back to the hotel room, he told me to get up at 6 am, had finished early, scattered End step, I did not realize I have come so early. He stayed in the room antique, carved beams, wearing a black slave village sandwiched names on the Chinese Xiaoao children, black pants and sneakers, white hair and eyebrows are still dense, Mianhanweixiao, warmly greeted a reporter to sit under 90 years of hardships did not erase the dark eyes bright, the sound is still tough, crisp and full of gas between speech, clear thinking, from time to time laughter Lang Lang, the interview he could not help clear a section of sounding nostalgic sing the melody, totally unlike the one of the oldest old elderly.
first arrived in Taiwan about the situation, almost 9 years late slavery modesty Lament Chuang, Fang-hua wasted ah, place of residence is the milk of Yonghe, a stone's throw away from Taipei, he recalled 60 years ago to the Yonghe Township, after the bridge on to the Chiang Kai-shek, had eyes full of rice paddies, water buffalo walking in the street is the cars, now take the big bus, and stay for 60 years. The Anpinledao old jokingly said, is the origin of slavery under the pen name Song Zhuang Chao complement of the poem:
Zhuang Nu, Taiwan famous songwriter, born in Beijing in 1921. And Qiao Yu, Huang claimed that Ci 1949 to Taiwan, as a journalist, editor, acted in plays, but to highlight the famous music, especially pop music the most talked about. Zhuang Nu wrote the lyrics Fifty Years, works more than 3000, has pen stopped working, known as the Teresa Teng singing
Reporter: You were born in Beijing in 1949, to Taiwan, not back to the mainland for nearly 60 years, back to the mainland for frequent cultural exchanges in recent years, as the native what are your feelings?
Zhuang: come, easy, easy go; nothing, uncorrupted; write song, infinite happiness. That is all, dedication until now, too, happy event hospitality. To Shanghai to think of the East, wrote a poem Who is singing? Who is happy? Are us! Why happy? Because we tried, I tried, we are the backbone of a dedication.
note: You worked as a reporter, editor, songwriter, author, acted drama, which is your favorite occupation?
Chong: Actually, not qualified to talk about love, to live, like most are not, like reading, not light reading, to support the family thing. Zhuang Nu writing lyrics for 60 years to write, to put it nicely, the singer dean, say nice, poor writer, you go is that this line is very difficult to get rid of, but you can masturbation, and in that position, never let up too, has been working, has been written.
life has never been relaxed over
singer Teresa Teng is Mei Lanfang
note: pop music has a popular saying You also wrote a book,
Chong: I can only say that her contribution for a wide audience. Why do so many of her popular songs like this? Is singing it? The lyrics it? Is look beautiful? Or her character it? The cultivation of personality it? I think that is a combination of the contribution of the various aspects of quality.
note: You once said that singer Teresa Teng Mei Lanfang?
Chong: Yes. Opera includes a lot of word play is literature, drama is history, Mei Lanfang is not only the performance on the stage, while the performance is too rich, so he became the dean of Peking Opera.
R: singer Teresa Teng is also the dean of it?
Zhuang: (laughing) that Teresa is a singer Mei Lanfang, of course, she can not be compared, that is her dedication, she was very dedicated to sing along, precisely because she does not acknowledge that they are superstars, She really is a superstar. Later, the voice of many people close to her, with her similar to similar to her, just as my evaluation of her before or since who have not previously had Teresa Teng Teresa Teng then gone.
to popular music, the lyrics to Xilian
in mind: the moment there have been many young singer songwriter, like Vincent Fang of Taiwan, and Hong Kong, Lindsay, you heard of them work? Look at how they work?
Chuang: Mr. Fang Wenshan these three words I have heard, I have not heard this man in Hong Kong. Not have read their works, songs heard, no time to listen. I can only say
in mind: You are the high priest of the people, how to look now Taiwan and Hong Kong pop music?
Chong: I think they like me hope that each of the capital of fashion, want to spread to each of a long time, but their lyrics genre that's not the same with us. We then transforms, that the first sentence, two three four, transforms, becoming the first paragraph of the first paragraph of four sentences, the first is starting the first full paragraph. From the first sentence to the last is a theme, very popular, sung after forgetting, sing want to hear.
Reporter: Do you think it's Taiwan and Hong Kong pop music what good and bad?
village: there can be no good, is a manifestation of the matter, but the benefits to society to perform well, performance was not a waste of time, waste of youth, a waste of life, do not do that stupid thing, smart thing to do, at least Oh, (your applause) good listened, ok. This is how I understand ah? That finished.
note: Your lyrics of the year very few words to catch on, the achievements of Teresa Teng, Kao Ling-feng, Feng Fei-fei, and many other stars. Current popular songs are not very long words, lack most of?
Chuang: On the technical side, the word The succinct writing can be seen, the emotional with the mood you can not tell. Some lyrics from literally nothing to see, but a singing will cry, the kind of artistic conception of the degree of high level can not tell. Such as the (singing) Why this is not winded, to Xilian. A small town more than the story, full of joy and happiness, the joy and happiness, love long Love, this Buddhist charity, I wish you, you wished me, altruism, including many self-evident.
in my mind, more than father-daughter relationship between me and Teresa
Reporter: Teresa Teng's songs are more than 80% from your hand,
Chong: No, no accident. I told Teresa she did not when the Red opportunity to meet, record companies are composed according to the director, or call, or send a thing look at the script, which can not be tailor made. I was completely loyal to the original, the script how to write, for instance, the
note: If you do not your lyrics, Teresa will be so popular it? Teresa Teng's concert is not for you the best interpretation of the word?
Chuang: hard to say. I run into this process is called blind cat dead rat. For example, Who sings it? Teresa Teng. (Laughs) are coincidental.
Reporter: Teresa lifetime, you only saw a plane?
Chong: Maybe both sides, maybe three sides. When she was a child to participate in various competitions, walked in front of me remember how many times already. If I know is an international star after her, I hold her every day how wonderful, Teresa grew up I did not write songs that I hold much, I multiple air ah! I do not know, unfortunately.
note: you as her lyrics, and her communication, behind you a book in honor of her, how do you define the relationship between you and Teresa, you are the co-operation? Is the music? Or students?
Chuang: In my mind, I am a write lyrics, she is singing, and wrote the lyrics in with the singing, drawing near to say, can be said that teachers and students, more than father and daughter in my mind . I remember with a few Japanese friends Zheng Changan to my house to visit, I asked the relationship between Teresa when I cried, I cried more than once to Teresa Teng. He said the slave village on teacher Teresa about why you emotionally, I wrote the lyrics Teresa Teng is really from the heart, I am also very conscientious of the other singers, but she is really on the stigma. Her professionalism, respect for teachers, rather than now some singers, the big red one on. I remember one time in Singapore, my student teacher of the plateau to the Zhuang Nu a concert, a singer he was about to talk about performance fees, to Singapore to thirty thousand dollars, and my income is not the whole thirty thousand dollars.
most difficult to write pop songs and rhymes
note: You once said the best art of writing lyrics, the most difficult to write pop songs and rhymes! How come?
village: a business leader in the modern era, the record companies to find you, you first see the word written well, he has requested, first to be popular, to our record company to sell a million copies of this CD ; the second singer to me helped popularize; the third song it must be good songs, he gave the conditions you have come. I can not, I can not do it, I can do, then I have the boss, no way.
most difficult to write songs, because the songs are young, five-year-old, seven-year-old, the old, eleven twelve, he knew that the limited, and he understands the limited literary attainments are limited, So now the songs are with adults in Taiwan's point of view, thinking adults, adult tone, adults write them, so that children sing, when he did not know what to sing, sing wah-wah later, big mistake, must we write He can sing, so hard to write good songs.
note: lyrics from your best taste out of deep affection, Qiao Yu had said with a smile: You are passionate seed, your emotional life is a rich person? How do you think of love?
Zhuang: (thinking a moment) love hard to explain, too esoteric, but also too general, there is no way deep into the ... ... a very short word to describe it is right. If love is beautiful, there is a writer, write
note: Your wife is now smaller than your 23 years old, you are happy?
Chuang: ninety-nine% satisfaction. I'm up at six o'clock this morning to accompany his wife children to eat breakfast, the breakfast, great! Secret beef noodle soup, fried dough sticks Ye Hao, Ye Hao beef noodles, eggs Ye Hao, eat breakfast that day could make me happy, does not take me very satisfied, very satisfied.
talk about love: too deep, but also very common
maintenance tips: I am a person without liver no lungs
note: If you hear someone said you had the lyrics and the concept of outdated gas, you lose your temper?
Chong: No, maybe he has his opinion, what is the most difficult in 120 words of the theme expressed in every aspect, the first popular, hard to move people, to every song difficult to achieve this state.
R: micro-blog with the online word like 140, you heard it?
Chong: I do not go on the computer I do not understand, I do not wear a watch, I do not install the headset, isolation, I am quiet as stagnant water.
remember: You're almost 90 years old, is still hale and hearty, clear thinking, witty remarks, casually, to sing songs, what maintenance tips?
Chong: I'm a northerner, we have a saying that you did this person ah no liver lung, liver did not I am a person of lung, nothing to think about, want good things, see also a good thing, I just want to be able to write some good lyrics to the community, when the lyrics came out good, the first is my wife shared, and she praised me. I thought nothing, name, Lee, point I received royalties to his wife, how to deal with me (whatever), my wife of 50 dollars to buy a shirt, do not buy her a hundred dollars, Anpinledao.
