Many young people may not know that the earliest members of Shuimu Nianhua are Li Jian and Lu Gengxu.
After graduating from Tsinghua University, Li Jian was more pragmatic and found an iron rice bowl, when he first entered the unit, Li Jian picked up people every day, and was always introduced to his girlfriend by the enthusiastic eldest sister in the unit, Li Jian didn't like this kind of work, and when he was depressed, Lu Gengxu found Li Jian and asked him if he wanted to sing, so Li Jian accepted Lu Gengxu's invitation, because they all graduated from Tsinghua University, so it was called "Shuimu Nianhua".
In this way, Li Jian became a singer in a daze, he didn't tell his parents that he no longer went to work, and now he is doing ** with his friends, if his parents knew, they would definitely not agree with Li Jian doing this, because when he was in school, his parents also wrote to Li Jian and said, we are ordinary people, don't fantasize about becoming a big star.
As a result, the two Tsinghua graduates became popular when they posted the first **, they appeared on many shows and sang on stage, Li Jian often worried that his parents would see him on TV.
Not long after Li Jian and Lu Gengxu cooperated, the two had a disagreement, their personalities are different, and their favorite ** is not the same, Lu Gengxu's favorite songs, Li Jian doesn't like them, Li Jian just wants to sing his favorite **, he told Lu Gengxu that he wants to fly solo, let Lu Gengxu find another person to join the "Shuimu Years", Li Jian promised that he would never sing the songs of the Shuimu period in the future, and he would write his own songs in the future.
After Li Jian left Shuimu Nianhua, Lu Gengxu found Li Jian's classmate Miao Jie to join the group, and their singing of "Life with You" and "In Another Country" became popular all over the country, but Li Jian never sang the songs of the Shuimu period in commercial performances, even when he was at the end of his rope, he did not make money from it.
In those years, Li Jian didn't have much money, he rented a house with no heating and no air conditioning, and he needed to make his own boiler for heating in winterDo you see how popular people are now?”
But Li Jian never regretted leaving Shuimu Nianhua, because he wrote a lot of good songs, although no one likes to listen to them now, but it doesn't matter, he is very satisfied.
Li Jian insisted on writing his own **, basically one every two years**, although the popularity of the songs was not as high as that of Shuimu at that time, but all the songs were liked by Li Jian**.
In 2005, Li Jian's life was more difficult and he was also short of money, his father who sang Peking Opera was diagnosed with cancer, Li Jiandong scraped together only tens of thousands of yuan, and after a few days, Li Jian's father's condition became more and more serious, and Li Jian had to send his father back to his hometown Harbin.
After his father died in 2006, Li Jian wrote "Missing You" and "Father" for his father, and after Li Jian's "Missing You" was written, he burst into tears on the piano, he never dared to let his mother listen to this song, afraid that his mother would be sad.
In the days that followed, Li Jian wrote his favorite songs, although he was not popular or popular, but his life was not bad, he was still married, his wife Meng Xiaobei accompanied him through the days of unknown origin, Li Jian once said to his wife, the days with you are called time, otherwise it is just a meaningless blank.
In the 2010 Spring Festival Gala, Faye Wong sang Li Jian's "Legend", that year, Li Jian described it as his late spring, and his talent was finally proven.
Since then, Li Jian's ** has been loved by countless listeners, won a lot of awards, got a lot of praise, made a lot of money, and has more choices on the road, everyone is askingThe changes after Li Jian became famous, he replied very soberly, the external situation has changed a lot, but his inner things have not changedLi Jian is only willing to be an intellectual, a ** intellectual.
Once, a reporter asked Li Jian: "When you return to the hutongs in the suburbs of Beijing in winter, will you remember the hard days of that year?"”
He replied, "No." In those years, I lived quite well, my standard of living was lowered, but I had no worries about food and clothing.
I remember what someone said: ".The wave of people around us is not what they were at the beginning, only Li Jian is still the same Li Jian back then
