Eason Chan, as a singer who has stood in the Chinese music scene for many years, his status and influence are beyond doubt. In traditional Chinese beliefs, age and seniority are often seen as symbols of respect and status. Eason Chan, who debuted in the same year as Leehom Wang, quickly became the idol of many young artists in Hong Kong, Taiwan and even the mainland with his outstanding performance during the millennium, such as Lin Youjia, S.H.E, Zhou Shen, Zhang Bichen, etc. At that time, he was one of the few Hong Kong singers who could have a top reputation in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the mainland at the same time.
Wang Leehom has Huatian Wrong, the Descendant of the Dragon, Big City and Little Love, and the only one, Lin Junjie has Jiangnan, Killer, Cao Cao, and Little Dimple, both of them were the most popular singers, even more clichéd and popular than Xue Zhiqian, and literary and artistic young people also like Wang Lin, but they feel that the two of them are not strong enough, and they will not talk about them from time to time.
Lin Junjie: I think it's similar, after everyone knows more about singing skills in the past ten years, they have also gotten up all of a sudden. It was not as good as Eason Chan and Leehom Wang before, but now it is faintly surpassed. Some netizens feel that the god-given voice has also added a lot to him, and many cover songs have become popular. I listened to Wang Leehom relatively early, the album on white paper. The autobiography will be transferred later, it is impossible to miss you, etc., without Jay Chou, Wang Leehom may be the same as the current Jay Chou, a bit of a meaning of both Yu and He Shengliang.
Xu Song's fans are also literary and artistic youths, but on the whole, they are more fragile and sensitive than Chen Fan, and they are more independent literary and artistic youths
Eason Chan's honor in the music scene cannot be ignored. He has won almost all the awards in the Chinese music scene, especially as a Cantonese singer, and won 6 awards with his Chinese album at the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards, which is the same as the current record of singers. Throughout his career, he is second only to Jay Chou in the number of awards he has received. Although he only began to enter the mainland market from the Taiwan market in 2005 and became completely popular in the mainland in 2010, his status has long been not to be underestimated. In 2009, at the mainland original music pop chart award ceremony, Jay Chou, Lin Junjie, Chen Kun and others all admired him.
In addition, Eason Chan has relatively little negative news. Although there were rumors that he and his wife supported "Hong Kong independence", these rumors were gradually clarified with the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law. Especially in the 2021 Xinjiang cotton incident, Eason Chan announced the termination of the contract with Adidas as soon as possible to maintain the reputation of the country and Xinjiang, which was well received by the majority of netizens. This move not only cleared his grievances, but also established a positive image of him. Of course, there are still some people with ulterior motives who try to slander him, but he still has the support and recognition of the majority of fans.
Some netizens also commented: There is a category of people who may always like Eason Chan and can be called loyal Eason Chan, this kind of person is a pretentious literary man and woman, who likes heart-rending little love songs, but he dislikes Xue Zhiqian and his ilk are too cliché, so they chose Eason Chan on the road to chasing stars. The noise is very infectious, and it is difficult to see it in this era of soaring high fortune, and listening to his songs can always hear a wealth of emotions. It is true that he defeated a group of soaring high-pitched singers with mid-bass and mid-high and high singing voices
It is worth mentioning that the Hong Kong music scene has experienced a downturn after the era of the Four Heavenly Kings. Jay Chou, Wang Leehom, Tao Zhe, Lin Junjie and other Taiwan artists are in the limelight, but Hong Kong has no new stars who can match them. As a result, the Hong Kong music scene needs a new representative, and Eason Chan has become a representative of this era with his strength and fame accumulated over the years. He debuted in 1996, at a time when the Chinese music scene was in full bloom. However, it wasn't until 2000 that with the popularization of the Internet and MP3, the way of listening to music changed dramatically, and music became a mass consumer product. In this context, Eason Chan has gradually gained a firm foothold in the mainland with his excellent music works and singing strength.
However, in the early millennium, the mainland music market was dominated by Taiwan artists. Most of the songs played on TV programs, radios, and streets at that time were by Taiwan singers. Mainland audiences have a higher recognition of Taiwan artists, such as Jay Chou, Wilber Pan, Wang Leehom and so on. On the other hand, in Hong Kong, although Eason Chan is also working hard to promote his music, his influence is difficult to compete with Taiwan artists for a while. Even so, over time, Eason Chan has gradually built a solid fan base in the mainland with his own hard work and outstanding musical talent.
Eason Chan's success in the mainland market has not been without its challenges. At first, he was not well-known and had fewer endorsements. However, with his continuous efforts and breakthroughs in the field of music, he finally ushered in an explosive period around 2010. Since then, he has achieved great success not only in music, but also in business. Although there is still a gap with the popularity and influence of Jay Chou, Lin Junjie and others, he still has become the backbone of the Chinese music scene with his own strength and charm.
In summary, Eason Chan's achievements in the Chinese music scene are inseparable from his hard work and talent. He is not only one of the few top Hong Kong singers in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the mainland after the turn of the millennium, but also an important representative of the Chinese music scene. Although he started late in the mainland market, he finally gained a firm foothold in the Chinese music scene with his continuous efforts and excellent musical works. In the future, we look forward to Eason Chan continuing to bring more excellent works to the music scene and continue to write his own music legend.
