Preface
There is no Andy Lau's life, but there is Andy Lau's illness!
"One idol a year, a hundred years of Andy Lau" can be said to be not an exaggeration at all, as one of the "Four Heavenly Kings" in Hong Kong, Andy Lau has been loved by everyone since his debut.
But, can you think of it? In reality, there is a "copycat version" of Andy Lau, who was signed by CCTV because he was too much like Andy Lau himself, and then became an instant hit.
However, after he exploded, he was not low-key at all, and the pomp was even bigger than the deity, and the appearance fee even reached millions.
So, how did the "high-end version Andy" become popular? What is his life like now?
The road to explosion of "high-quality Andy".
With the continuous development of the mainland's economy, watching short videos after meals has become our pastime.
Recently, there was such a video on the Internet, a middle-aged man who looks like Jay Chou drags a tricycle and sells fragrant pancakes.
Because of his seven-point similarity with Jay Chou, the man who sold pancakes quickly appeared on the hot search, and he was also affectionately called "Zhou Bi Lun" by everyone.
After that, he became an instant hit on the Internet with his imitation of Jay Chou's song stalks.
However, it is not only "Zhou Bilun" who has become popular because of his resemblance to a star, among them, Lu Ha went on a live broadcast to bring goods because he looked like Lu Han and achieved financial freedom.
But if you want to talk about the originator of the imitation industry, it is none other than the "copycat version of Andy Lau" - Jiaohai is in a hurry.
Born in 1985, his family is not wealthy, his parents are from the countryside, and the money he usually earns is only enough to maintain a basic life.
And he didn't have much interest in reading since he was a child, so his academic performance was average in the class.
During middle school, the girls in the class at that time were crazy about the "Four Heavenly Kings", and the voices around Jiaohai were all about the "Four Heavenly Kings".
Even the posters of his friends are them, and slowly, Jiao Haihao's facial features continue to grow, and his friends feel that he is very similar to the "superstar" Andy Lau on the poster.
However, at that time, Jiao Hai Da did not take his friend's words to heart, and after finishing junior high school, Jiao Hai Da, who felt that reading had no way out for him, made a bold decision.
At this time, the economic situation of the family was not good, and he could subsidize the living expenses of the family by giving up his studies and going out to work, so he decided to give up his studies and go to work.
Due to his lack of education and skills, he can be said to have repeatedly hit a wall when he goes out to work.
As a result, he had to do the lowest jobs, he worked as a waiter and a waitress in a bar, and these jobs were only enough for his basic living expenses.
By chance, he went on stage in a bar for a singing performance, and during his singing, the audience felt that the person in front of him looked too much like Andy Lau.
What's even more exaggerated is that some people recognize Jiaohai as Andy Lau, seeing that the people around him and the audience say that they look like Andy Lau, at this time, an idea of making money popped up in his mind, that is, to imitate Andy Lau.
And his behavior also changed his life in the future, and in the following time, he will carefully observe Andy Lau's works and daily behaviors whenever he has time.
Even, in order to make himself similar to Andy Lau, he also carried out fitness shaping, and it can be said that he has put a lot of effort into imitating Andy Lau.
The turning point in his life occurred in 2000, when Jiaohai participated in a singing competition in Heilongjiang Province, and he was also well-known for his resemblance to Andy Lau, and successfully entered the showbiz.
After that, he also performed on the same stage with many celebrities one after another, and was even invited by the Beijing Bosideng headquarters to participate in the tour.
Even Andy Lau, who was far away in Hong Kong, heard about it, and after Andy Lau saw the photos, he was also stunned, there are two people in the world who are so similar, and Jiaohai is like another self.
Subsequently, Jiao Hai Da was also invited by the film company of "Huayi Brothers" to participate in the movie "Chasing Movies", and Jiao Hai Da played Andy Lau in the movie.
After the movie was broadcast, many viewers thought that Andy Lau was really starring, and then, the director refuted the rumors that Andy Lau himself did not act, and the actor who looked like Andy Lau was named Jiaohai.
For a while, the audience was stunned, and also praised Jiao Hai Hao's acting skills, and after that, Jiao Hai Da was also completely popular, and was once signed by CCTV to perform on the same stage with first-line singers Yang Kun and Zhu Jun.
It can be said that he has a promising future with his similar appearance to Andy Lau, however, when people are popular, they will float, and Jiaohai is no exception.
If you become famous, you will float and destroy your future
As Jiao Hai's popularity continues to increase, he makes more and more money, and it can be said that he has achieved fame and fortune.
As he has more and more, he is also slowly led by the nose by desire, and his mentality has also changed dramatically.
Because he debuted too early and at the same time did not receive a good education, the huge change from the bottom to heaven made him more and more floating.
He seems to really think of himself as Andy Lau, not only does he have to live in a five-star hotel, but even a concert ticket has reached one million yuan, and his daily life is unimaginably extravagant.
When receiving various business activities, there must be many bodyguards around to follow him, and the scene is quite magnificent, even if Andy Lau himself comes, he will "bow down".
And Jiao Hai also ignored the interaction of fans during the performance, which was extremely arrogant, and the approachable attitude when he first became famous was a world of difference.
Jiao Hai Hao really regards himself as a superstar, and with his series of comical operations, the audience is gradually disgusted with him, and everyone likes him just because he looks like Andy Lau.
Most of the fame he brings comes from Andy Lau, not Jiaohai himself, the well-known Andy Lau is approachable to fans, and his usual offline activities are very low-key and polite, and Jiaohai is like two people.
Soon, Jiao Haihao's career declined sharply, and his popularity was not as good as before, and then he slowly faded out of the entertainment industry without performances and activities.
However, coming to this part is also his own "self-inflicted", and he has not gone far by imitating others, not to mention that he is so arrogant, which makes the audience not interested in him at all.
Looking at the entire entertainment industry, how big a wrist knows that he must be a low-key person, and he can't be blinded by fame and fortune, otherwise he will destroy his future, but Jiaohai, who relies on imitation, doesn't know this truth, and it's no wonder that he is eliminated now.
epilogue
Judging from the "copycat version of Andy Lau" Jiaohai, he could have gone a little further, and even changed the fate of himself and his family.
Although he does not have a superior family background and a smart brain, God treats him well and gives him a chance to take a shortcut.
But he didn't grasp it well, but floated to the sky after becoming famous, and really regarded himself as Andy Lau himself.
You must know that "water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat", the audience can hold him up, and similarly, if he chills the audience, the audience can also pull him off the altar.
The result that he is now ignored is also self-inflicted, if he could have insisted on "not forgetting his original intention" and "being a low-key person", it may not be this result now.
