Zang Hongfei: You don't have to carry so much, you don't have to succeed

1、

In recent days, this advertisement voiced by Zang Hongfei has brushed the screen.

He is over 40 years old, has been a rock musician for 23 years, and has worked with Zhang Chu, Zheng Jun, Xu Wei and Tan Weiwei; he has appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and "I Am a Singer", or a judge of Super Girl and Fast Man; he has written Weibo for 6 years and saved more than 1 million fans, but his hottest time is to come to the stage of "Strange Flower Conference".

Well, he is the "Rock Circle Discipline Committee" Zang Hongfei.

Zang Hongfei: You don't have to carry so much, you don't have to succeed

Speaking of Cui Jian, Xu Wei, and Wang Feng, everyone understands. But when it comes to Zang Hongfei, not many people know, at least before participating in the "Strange Flower Conference" to the front of the stage, he is still behind the scenes, is a genius keyboard player in the circle.

Because of "Strange Story", Teacher Zang suddenly became popular, became a hot search, and the number of Weibo fans also broke through the bottleneck.

A messy braid, because of nervousness and eagerness to express the words to stumble, a hurry to crackle and not spit unhappy, crazy like an earthquake, and he plays rock fashion cool pretend to be silent image of some contrast.

However, when the choreographer of "Strange Story" found Zang Hongfei, he hesitated repeatedly, saying that he did not know whether he was only interesting in the rock circle, in the minority, or more interesting in the public. Then he decided to go, and he felt he should do something new.

Before "Strange Story", Zang Hongfei was actually a "popular" satirist on Weibo, and was a self-media big V.

Zang Hongfei: You don't have to carry so much, you don't have to succeed

Once he attended a music festival in Mentougou and came back to find himself particularly dirty. On the way, he encountered some special dog blood episodes, he wrote the whole thing into a paragraph and sent it to Weibo, forwarding it for 5000, and Weibo was red.

Later, he also mentioned this paragraph in "Strange Story", and as a result, mentougou's friends intimidated him, saying that mentougou is not dirty, you are dirty.

Teacher Zang is such a true temperamental person, although occasionally dressed up a little sloppy, the old beggar like disregard for the image, sitting on the ground when the live broadcast is born.

Some people say that there are two kinds of people in this world, one is to look at the crime and the other is to look like a criminal. Zang Hongfei said that he was obviously the latter, because he did not look like a good person, and he experienced too many misunderstandings and pains in his life. He smiled bitterly and explained that in fact, I was not bad, I was just bad.

Because he dared to say what others did not dare to say on Weibo, someone on Douban gave him the name of "Rock Circle Discipline Committee". He said that Zhang Wei's song customs were also blackened by Teacher Liu Huan, saying that he had made up good songs in the program.

In the live broadcast, he explained why he didn't like the fact that an artist scolded the organizers at the performance, and angrily intimidated a certain rock marketing number for the eyeballs of the Audience and turned black and white upside down: I want to ask who gave you the dirty face of reversing the right and wrong of the circle!

Some people spray Zang Hongfei, he is no longer a rock player, people who play rock should not stand on that stage, and people who play rock and roll should not be popular.

He has been seriously doing rock music for more than 20 years, and he is also trying to express his inner thoughts to everyone, talking for 20 years no one listens, no one wants to listen, and now suddenly rely on a variety show to catch fire, people are not popular, the heart is a little complicated.

When it comes to rock and roll, he has to go back to the time he was 13 years old. That year, he accidentally bumped into a large rock music performance, there were Zang Tianshuo, Chang Kuan, Cobra band on the stage, when he saw the 4 long-haired musicians of the Tang Dynasty, long hair, jackets, boots on the stage is jumping and shouting madness, the worldview he established in the first 13 years collapsed: the original music can still be played like this.

He said that after that concert, I couldn't do it, I couldn't live like before. In junior high school, he even skipped class to line up to buy the first self-titled album by the Black Panthers.

Later, "Black Panther" sold 1.5 million copies, and in the same year, the Tang Dynasty Band's "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" sold 2 million copies, and the "94 new generation" also influenced a generation of young people.

Zang Hongfei: You don't have to carry so much, you don't have to succeed

Zang Hongfei had a personal relationship with the Tang Dynasty in the second year after Zhang Ju's death. Without Zhang Ju, the Tang Dynasty Band no longer had a song like "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty", and the members have been in and out, and it is difficult to return to the best state.

Later, the rock and roll scene has been on the decline, and the "golden age" is no more. Seeing that the rock circle has not improved, but gradually has the power of the pop circle and the view of the portal, Liang Qiaobai called Zang Hongfei to play the keyboard in "I Am a Singer", and he is slowly stepping into the popular circle.

Zang Hongfei is not the most qualified "spokesperson" in the current rolling circle, but as a musician who has been in the industry for more than 20 years, he has witnessed the rise, prosperity and decline of the circle, and has seen too many flashes of ephemerals, too many ebb and flow, too many gossip and human collapses, but he has become the most "right to speak" in the circle, and he is an uncompromising rock "old naughty boy".

There was a girl in "Stranger Things" who said that she didn't think rock 'n' roll had to be angry, and she felt that rock 'n' roll was all about making everyone dance, just being happy.

Zang Hongfei: You don't have to carry so much, you don't have to succeed

Zang Hongfei said that many singing competitions see singers wearing leather jackets pulling their voices and saying that I sing rock and roll, and pop singers say "Rock up!" in a very six-plus-one gesture. ”

He felt that pop is to say to life in the song that I am satisfied, and rock and roll is to say that I am not satisfied with life.

Sometimes Zang Hongfei thinks that if Zhang Ju had not died, if Dou Wei had not left Black Panther, these two bands might have become greater bands.

In 1995, Zang Hongfei still had no concept of the word death, and what touched him most was the death of Zhang Yongguang.

In Christmas 2014, I overheard the death of Zhang Yongguang, the "third drum child", and after my heartache, I wrote a "Rock and Roll Desolation - In Memory of Zhang Yongguang" to commemorate the third brother. The third brother hanged himself in the basement where he practiced drumming, in fact, the house was also rented to him by Zang Hongfei, and they had a deep personal relationship.

At the concert of Lao Cui that year, the audience collectively shouted from "three children come to a paragraph" to "three masters come to a paragraph", preferring to listen to the solo of the third brother. Zang Hongfei sighed: "No matter how brilliant a rock musician is, it is nothing more than that. ”

Drummer "Drum Third Child" Zhang Yongguang

After the death of the third brother, Cui Jian and others launched a commemoration of the third brother, Liang Heping sent a video, in which he said: "He is angry, but he does not know how to package himself; he has experienced countless tortures and pains from the heart, but in the end, he still chose to give up everything." ”

Liang Heping is a keyboard player at the 94 Magic Rock Sanjie Hung Hom concert, unfortunately, there was a car accident that led to high paraplegia, and only above the neck can move.

Zang Hongfei sighed at the departure of the third brother, but he was also full of sympathy and understanding, depression is too difficult to endure. Xu Wei survived, but the third brother did not survive.

He also remembers that the first time he went to a big concert was when Li Yanliang took him there, once he met Li Yanliang during a bar performance, Ryoko asked him if he had ever done a concert, I said I hadn't done it but I could try it.

Zang Hongfei began to run concerts with Xu Wei's "Blue Group" since then, when the best bands recognized in the circle were Lao Cui and Lao Xu, with this step, let him go more smoothly in the future. And his relationship with Zhang Yongguang was tempered when Lao Xu was working in the band.

He also remembers that in 2005, Xu Wei finally mixed up, the first time he held a concert at the Workers' Stadium, and Xu Wei went by subway in rehearsal. The staff were shocked and said how can you come by subway!

On the day of the performance, Xu Wei sang "Two Days", sang "Elsewhere", the whole audience sang a chorus, Zang Hongfei and a few friends hugged their headaches and cried in the workers' body, and everyone around them cried, hugging strangers and crying. Zang Hongfei said that everyone always feels that this kind of pessimistic song is niche, but in fact, there are 1.3 billion people in China, and there are always 100 million people who are pessimistic.

Zang Hongfei: You don't have to carry so much, you don't have to succeed

This is the rock cell in Zang Hongfei's blood, he can be angry or pessimistic, but he has never reconciled with the world.

After the end of "Strange Story", he said that he would do some interesting things in the future, he positioned himself as a human observer, some things, some people have to do, some people scolded and some people praised, he did not care for a long time.

In the year of confusion, he still has dirty braids, likes tattoos, some paranoia, dressed like a "drum tower youth", he goes to the disco to jump, but also plays "Glory of the King", he wants to express himself more than when he was 20 years old, and maintains a pure heart like a chivalrous.

As a young man, he did not smile, was angry, and despised the rules of the world, and later he found that his voice was too weak to shake anything. Despite this, he never gave up. In his opinion, this is rock 'n' roll.

He never talked about success, did not want to be a complacent middle-aged successful person, he wanted to use his life to do a performance art, never asked everyone to understand appreciation.

Zang Hongfei: You don't have to carry so much, you don't have to succeed

Like the ad he recently voiced for JD.com that offended all "successful people," "You don't have to be successful." ”

Well, you don't have to succeed, but you have to live with the guts.
