A video has recently gone viral on the Internet, causing countless post-80s and post-90s generations to exclaim and question: Is this really Mao Ning, the king of heaven who was popular all over the country and was known as the "little prince of the music world"?
It's just that from that old voice, I can vaguely identify that it is he who is singing the classic song "The Sound of the Waves" on stage. However, the singer who came into view was short, skinny, and his face was covered with furrows, and the whole person seemed to have aged 30 years old overnight, and he couldn't recognize the demeanor of the year at all!
Foreshadowing adds credibility: Mao Ning was born in Shanghai in 1968 and joined the Shanghai Chinese Orchestra as a tenor singer at the age of 16. In 1987, he first published his solo album "Youth Without Regrets", which became an instant hit, and became an idol singer with his outstanding singing voice and sunny and handsome appearance, and was known as "Xiao Jacky Zhang".
In the past ten years, Mao Ning has released several golden song records, among which works such as "The Sound of the Waves Remains" and "Crazy Waiting" are still widely sung today.
In particular, "The Sound of the Waves Remains" not only brought Mao Ning to the peak of his career, but also was considered an eternal classic in the Chinese music scene. This song is very picturesque, describing the painful scene of the hero and heroine in the fishing port, and the music style is beautiful and moving, shaping Mao Ning's unique musical style and singing voice.
Although it has gone through more than 30 years of changes, this song will still be sung in major karaoke boxes, and the pop will never go out of style.
And in this video, the camera is aimed at the male singer on stage, and it is Mao Ning himself who is singing this famous song again with that aging voice: "The sound of the waves is still the same, the waves are smiling, and the dream always stays at this moment......"
When the familiar melody sounded again, the fans all burst into tears, but when their eyes passed through the camera and saw Mao Ning's recent situation, everyone involuntarily covered their mouths.
"Is this really Mao Ning? I almost didn't recognize him!" After so many years, how did he suddenly age like this?" As can be seen from the video, the 55-year-old Mao Ning is thin, his face is covered with deep wrinkles, and his mental state is not as good as before.
Is it because of years of stress? Or is there something else going on? There is even speculation that Mao Ning did some surgery to make plastic surgery, which caused the facial lines to change? But all this can only be guesswork, and we have no way of knowing for the time being.
Personal analysis, Mao Ning's current description has a lot to do with his career as an artist. has been working hard in the music scene since his early 20s, and it has been more than 30 years in the blink of an eye.
After so many years of stage life, traveling all over the world, the pressure of touring can be imagined. Mao Ning herself has experienced a life of crisis, being criminally detained for making mistakes in 2015 and being attacked on the streets in 2000. The weight of these dripping stones was undoubtedly a huge impact on him.
In any case, it is not easy for Mao Ning to still stand tall on the stage and continue to sing his famous songs with that old but still moving voice.
This respect and persistence for the music industry is also worthy of our recognition and applause. The music is silent, but every note tells the artist's unswerving pursuit of ideals. Maybe one day, Mao Ning will recreate the style of the year, let's wait and see!
