Date: March 24, 2006. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Location: China, above. Sea Stadium.

Above. Hai Stadium, also known as the "80,000-person stadium", is currently the largest and most advanced large-scale outdoor stadium in China and one of the landmark buildings in Shanghai.

Above. The Sea Stadium adopts many advanced building materials in the world today, with novel shapes, reflecting a strong atmosphere of the times, and is dotted in the wide square with green grass and flowers, like green leaves supporting a giant magnolia flower, becoming a landmark building in Shanghai in the new three years, adding a new style to Shanghai at the turn of the century.

The Shanghai 80,000-person stadium is equipped with an evergreen football field and a plastic track and field competition venue that meet international standards. It is also equipped with multi-functional lawn protection boards for holding large-scale theatrical performances and commercial promotion activities of different scales.

At this time, the 80,000-person stadium was brightly lit, like daylight, although the weather has not completely warmed up, but there are still many fashionable girls wearing short skirts in the metropolis, bringing a touch of beautiful scenery to the still cold night.

Many kings and queens have been held here, such as Alan Tam, Cheung Huimei, Leslie Cheung, etc., and now the upcoming one is also a young king.

Countless fans gathered here, long lines were entering, bustling crowds, vendors everywhere, fans discussing - the atmosphere here was very lively.

This is the concert of Jay Chou, known as the "King of Asian Pop" by Time Magazine (Asian Edition), and the last concert of the "Unparalleled" world tour.

Jay Chou's "incomparable" concert, which began on November 9, 2004, presented a low-key gorgeous, is a grand event with the largest music and music supremacy, with the opening of the supergod falling from the sky, the trend of aboriginal fusion hip-hop, and the live unpluged love song singing, of course, there is also the indispensable Chinese style; Sometimes gorgeous, sometimes low-key, as the concert progresses, a delicate and wonderful concert is staggered, which has been loved by many people.

And Jay Chou's concert is not so popular, because this concert broke the world's largest number of artists sold tickets and the largest number of people in the mainland Shanghai 80,000 Stadium (the largest stadium in Chinese mainland).

The stadium is surrounded by huge posters of Jay Chou, and it can be seen that the organizers are very careful to promote.

In this concert, Jay Chou sang a lot of his famous songs, such as "Trajectory", "Qili Xiang", as well as songs he wrote for others, such as "Rewind", and of course, he also sang other people's songs.

The lights were turned on, and I saw Jay Chou in a white dress appearing in front of a white grand piano, and his melancholy temperament, makeup, and lighting effects suddenly caused the screams of the girls in the audience, which was deafening.

There is even a girl sitting in the front row who screams loudly, and even Jay Chou sitting on the stage can be heard clearly.

"Yes, thank you!" Jay Chou tidied up and continued to pretend to be melancholy, "Next, I will bring a song, not my own song, but, I think, a very meaningful song, it was a theme song of the World Vision Conference before, the writer of this song is a very good friend of mine, the name of this song is called "Snail", I hope everyone will like it, thank you!" ”

World Vision is a Christian relief, development and advocacy service organization dedicated to working with children, families and communities to overcome poverty and injustice, regardless of religion, race, color or gender, World Vision serves all people and is committed to caring for children and their families in the midst of famine, war, and natural disasters in the world, so that they can improve their environment and become self-reliant.

World Vision Taiwan was founded in 1964 and has a history of 41 years.

"Our vision for every child is that they have an abundant life; The prayer in our hearts is that we will have the will to accomplish this vision. ”

-- Vision Declaration.

With the improvement of living standards, the public has become more and more concerned about public welfare, and every year, World Vision invites popular artists to participate in events and serve as love ambassadors, generally speaking, the most popular artists who serve as love ambassadors.

In April last year, the World Vision invited the world-famous Chinese singer An Yuxi to serve as the love ambassador in 2005, An Yuxi agreed, but unfortunately before the opening on September 24, An Yuxi could not sing, although he couldn't come, but An Yuxi still created the song "Snail" as the theme song of the World Vision.

Although there were no love ambassadors who did not attend this year, there were still many popular Hong Kong and Taiwan stars who participated in this public welfare activity.

The song "Snail" is no stranger to everyone, because this is the theme song of last year's "World Vision", sung by famous singers Xu Ruyun, Qi Qin, Xiong Tianping, Power Train Li Jie and others, collected in the love compilation album "True Love Invincible", all the funds from the sale of this album will be used to help children.

The song "Snail" wants to say that no matter what kind of predicament you encounter, as long as you climb up step by step like a snail, although the speed is not fast, as long as you don't give up, you will definitely reach the top, I believe many people will feel the same way, this is a profound and popular inspirational song.

"Should I put down the heavy shell~

Looking for ~ where is the blue sky

With ~ a gentle wind gently drifting

I have experienced the wound ~ I don't feel any pain"

"I'm going to ~ climb up step by step~

Waiting for the sun ~ quietly looking at its face ~ Small days ~ big dreams ~

Heavy shell ~ wrapped and gently looking up"

"I'm going to ~ climb up step by step~

Fly forward on the blade at the highest point~

A little day ~ tears and sweat that have flowed ~ One day I will have my own day~"

"I'm going to climb up one step at a time

Fly forward on the blades at the highest point

Let the wind dry the tears and sweat that flowed~"

"I'm going to climb up one step at a time

Wait for the sun to look at its face quietly

Small days have big dreams

I have my own heavens"

"Let the wind dry the tears and sweat that have flowed, one day I will have my own day~" In the cheers of the fans, Jay Chou closed his eyes and finished singing.

"I believe everyone is familiar with this song, its author is my good friend, the famous Chinese singer Mr. An Yuxi!"

"Boom~" As soon as Jay Chou's words landed, the fans in the audience were in a hurry, and the name An Yuxi was certainly not unfamiliar.

"There is an idiom called like-mindedness, when I communicate with him, he gives me a lot of inspiration, many of his songs I like, it sounds very feeling, it feels like its own songs, like "Listen to Mom", "Rainbow" ・・・・・・"

"Next, I'll sing you a song that I like very much, "Rainbow", and give it to everyone."

"There's a rainbow there to tell me~"

On March 29, a shocking news swept the entire entertainment industry again.

That is, Kim Jong Kook will enlist in the army tomorrow!

With titles such as "Lyrical King", "National Singer", and "Triple Crown", he ruled in the second half of 2005 and successfully ascended to the throne of the Korean music industry.

In February, like a meteor, Kim Jong Kook burst out of his last strength, for his last stage career, he burst out of his most brilliant light, and announced that he had come to the king in a month, sweeping the entire South Korea, the time and place were favorable, allowing Kim Jong Kook to reach the biggest peak of his life, and let later people talk about it.

People can't help but think of An Yuxi.

But the most talked about is the topic of "two men", first of all, An Yuxi rose with lightning speed, swept South Korea, and even the English-speaking and Chinese-speaking circles, and then Kim Jong Kook also began to shine, it can be said that An Woo Xi is Kim Jong Kook's wings, a man made him rise, and then the second series helped him ascend to the throne of the "Triple Crown".

It can be said that these two years completely belong to these "two men".

Countless people participated in the discussion, and there were endless quarrels on the Internet, and many people suspected that there was something behind Kim Jong Kook's military service, and he was ushering in the peak of his career, but he entered a trough again, which made people sympathize.

Others say it's a sign of their sense of responsibility.

Whether some people are happy or regretful, no matter what, they can't change this fact.

Enlisted with Kim Jong Kook was also Cho Sung-mo, who is also a veteran lyrical king, and finally took advantage of last year's lyrical craze to make a comeback, but he didn't expect ・・・・・・ to taste a little sweetness and be knocked down.

On March 30, 2006, the two officially enlisted in the army today and began their 26-month military service.

In front of the military service station, in addition to many entertainment media, there are more fans of Kim Jong Kook and Cho Sung-mo, more than 1,000 people, neat costumes, and unified support items, so that Kim Jong Kook's eyes can't help but moisten.

Bidding farewell to the fans, Ahn Woo-hee, who hurried from the set with a scruffy beard and dark circles under his eyes, sent Kim Jong Kook to the door of the military service station.

"Brother Zhong Guo, go all the way!"

"What do you say, I'm not going to die!"

"You have to work hard inside, don't forget to practice singing!"

"Got it! I'm not going to jail! "The person who is regarded as his younger brother is so admonished, Kim Jong Kook is also a little impatient, what is it called in it!

"Brother Zhong Guo, you don't have to be too sad, look at me, I can't even sing now..."

"Ugh." Hearing Ahn Woo-seo say this, Kim Jong Kook couldn't help but feel a little gloomy, this former top singer who was burdened with "The Voice of the Siren", "The Voice of God", "The Voice of Heaven", and "The Voice of Dialogue with the Soul", used to have such a beautiful voice, but now he actually talked to him in a hoarse voice.

Suddenly, he felt that what had happened to him was nothing, was there anything more cruel than a singer not being able to sing? It seems wrong to think so.

"It's going to be fine!" Kim Jong Kook could only say this dryly.

"Yes! Brother Zhong, take care! ”

"Take care!"

Ahn Woo-hee waved his hand and watched Kim Jong Kook walk into the field.

The next day, NewAngle featured the news - "2006: The end of the golden age of solo singers, whose era is next?" ”

The connotation derived from this topic suddenly detonated the song world and sparked a national discussion.

The photo of this report was taken by the reporter from the scene -- the backs of two men, in front of the military service station, Ahn Woo-seo waved his hand, Kim Jong Kook turned his head to say goodbye, like a lifelike oil painting, the two people seemed to be saying goodbye to their own era, which became a symbol of the times.

Two men, who shined in 2004 and 2005 respectively, dominated the music industry for two years The "two men", in the most glorious moment of their careers and lives, have fallen into the sand, the same fate is bumpy, people are embarrassed, sighing, and at the same time, it has also achieved the last glorious era of solo singers, which is also called the end of the "golden age" of solo singers by later generations.

- Goodbye, Golden Age!
