I would like to know Li Chengxi, a gay celebrity. Can anyone introduce me to him?

You fans are really not very professional, and you don’t even know the basic situation. If you can't stand it anymore, I'll write a piece of news to start it off.

Chengxi in the past and present life

Unexpectedly, I would get news from him and hear his singing again many years later. I was very surprised. I thought I would never have the chance to see such a person again, as he said: If I could, I would erase all of this and disappear into the vast sea of ??people. . .

In the summer of 2006, people in the circle had a new place to go. Everyone rushed to tell each other that a bar called Bird and Fish (now the name has been lost) opened in Chaoyang, and it was very popular. Not bad, especially since there are some performances starting at ten o'clock at night to add to the fun. After the daily program started, around 10:20 on time, a handsome, fair and skinny guy from the South would sing a few songs. At first, he didn't attract much attention, and everyone thought the performance was average. But after a week, everyone gradually discovered that the songs this young man sang were very tasteful. Whether it was a loud song or a soulful ditty, he could sing it in an unflattering, sweet and elegant way. Coupled with the unique delicacy and softness of the southern boy, The guests slowly began to pay attention to him, but his whereabouts were mysterious. Unlike other actors, he would hang around with the guests to earn tips after the performance. Every time he finished singing a stage, no one would be around except for those who knew him. His name is Chengxi, and no one knows his situation.

Our senior drinking buddies were quickly regarded as regular customers by the boss, and there were always some special treatments to enjoy. In addition, the boss was also in his twenties, and we quickly became close friends. , every time I come here, the boss sometimes comes to accompany me in person, and we have a great time chatting with him. One day, Chengxi was singing on the stage, and we were sitting on the second floor with the boss. Someone asked: Who is this guy? The boss has a good eye!

The boss smiled and said: This is not someone I invited casually. He is a friend I knew in Changsha. He came to Beijing to attend lectures at Renmin University. I happened to be opening a bar. Business was not doing well at first, and I didn't have the strength to hire many big-name actors, so he said he would come and help me sing in the bar in the evening. At first I thought he was joking, so I asked him to try out the sound with the DJ, but the DJ actually said it was good and could be used. So he came to help sing three songs every day.

There was a friend next to me who was an old gamer. He asked the boss: What kind of student are you? It's all a pretense. What price can you afford?

The boss smiled and said: No! I don't dare offend. He is really a student and simple. I tried to calculate my salary for him at first, but he refused. For a while, he sang for me in vain. He said you just think I'm here for fun, singing KTV. He is kind to people and honest. I really treat him like a younger brother. I let him go and everything else is free.

Seeing what the boss said was true, the friend no longer made things difficult for him, but everyone was a little more curious and interested in this singer. That was also the moment when we saw him at his best. , no one would have thought that the young man singing softly in front of him was embarking on an endless road.

When I have time, I can’t help but go to the bar and sit there, for no other reason than to listen to him sing three songs and then leave. Although he has no original works of his own and is not a trained professional singer, But compared to many actors who pretend to be crazy, charming, coquettish, cute, confident or even awesome on stage, his feeling is really unique, with a youthful look on his face, and his singing voice is penetrating and retractable. It is free and not delicate and artificial. When the sound and the picture are combined, it is one word - pure beauty, the ultimate pure beauty. Many years later, we will still remember his style, and we all still remember his later Christmas special "Pure American Style".

Just like my eyes on him, many people gradually felt his difference. He became famous in the circle, and many customers came to the bar because of him. Bars also noticed his value. From his original single singing, the lineup has become more and more luxurious. At the beginning, a lot of props were added. For example, he would sing on a hanging basket dropped from the sky, sing on a lifting turntable, sing amidst fireworks, and sing in a fountain. , matched with his exquisite and soft singing voice, it is beautiful.

Later, there were more dancers, including fast and slow songs. He actually started to learn to dance along with the actors in the songs, and sometimes interspersed some interactive plots that matched the lyrics, singing and dancing at the same time. Yes, the style is becoming more mature.

To this day, the choreography of Birds and Fishes is still a celebrity that everyone is familiar with. He is a well-known stylist in the circle. Because the makeup he creates is very charming and exaggerated, they all call him "Meizu". Many people like his styling because it is very unique and easily impresses everyone. But Li Chengxi's style never follows his wishes. He doesn't like makeup that is too delicate and charming. He always chooses the most inconspicuous and simple costumes. He always tells Meizu that I want the simplest hairstyle. However, he picks things very tastefully, preferring materials such as feathers and velvet, and he likes coordinated colors. Once, I saw with my own eyes that he put together an ordinary actor's white suit with silver sequins and a women's tutu white tutu skirt, and turned it into a very fashionable and unique performance costume, paired with a white top hat. , after applying a little foundation and eye shadow, she stunned the audience as soon as she took the stage, looking as noble as a prince.

He gradually became popular, and more and more people supported him. Such a situation and environment is a temptation for anyone. His unique temperament will be changed by this complicated environment, and many people will quickly lose sight of him by then. However, what I didn't expect was that he still retained that sense of uniqueness and aloofness in his bones. He has classes during the day, comes at 9:30 in the evening, and leaves on time at 10:50. He rehearses three times a week. He doesn't talk to anyone who approaches him to show his courtesy, he doesn't accept any tips, and he doesn't drink. In particular, the boss also told me that I would give him more money, from the original 150 yuan to 300 yuan a day, but he refused. He said: I am just an amateur singer.

However, he will not mess up the situation, and his seriousness in everything is admirable. I saw one of his rehearsals. Although he only had to intersperse a few moves with the backup dancers during the singing, he practiced the entire dance with everyone without stopping for more than two hours. The choreographer told him not to use some parts. It was useless to practice, but he said, it doesn't matter. If you accidentally forget the words during singing, you can use these jokes to make up for it. He never sings casually like others, and always carefully checks every word and every sound. This is demanding for many professional singers, but he said, I am a non-professional singer, and I can only sing well if I believe and respect the original author. He believed that he had no professional training, so he was unwilling to change the original work. When he felt there was a slight error in his performance on the stage, he would automatically sing a ditty to show his respect for the guests. His respect and humility for professional work are a reflection of his personal accomplishment, and are also the reasons why he eventually became the most popular gay singer in Beijing.

His singing is becoming more and more popular, and his singing skills are getting better and better. He no longer set three songs every day like he did at the beginning. He learned to temporarily decide the half-time song every day based on the number of people in the venue, the atmosphere, and the different types of guests. He usually sang popular songs from Hong Kong and Taiwan at that time, and later he also sang more nostalgic songs to cater to the tastes of guests of more age groups. One day, a group of Taiwanese customers came to the bar. After he finished singing the second song, he suddenly made a slight gesture. The DJ stopped the music and the lights dimmed. He began to sing "Looking at the Spring Breeze" a cappella in Hokkien. "", his expression was quiet and his breath was soft. Everyone was quiet, and only the sound of clinking glasses could be heard occasionally. Every song was sung, and the guests from Taiwan clapped excitedly and kept saying "One more song, one more song" in Hokkien. He made an exception and sang "Lover" by Teresa Teng, which was the beginning of his singing transformation.

One day he just finished singing. A guest caught up to him before he got off the stage and spoke to the DJ in front of the stage. Listen clearly. At this time, Li Chengxi noticed him, turned around and stopped on the stage, and motioned for everyone to be quiet. The guest spoke vague Chinese to Li Chengxi. Li Chengxi immediately realized his pronunciation and communicated with him. Unexpectedly, he switched to fluent Japanese.

He is such a person, affectionate and righteous. Later, there were many rumors that Li Chengxi fell in love with that person at that time and sent him to the hospital as a cover. After getting to know him, he frequently went in and out of hotels with him. There were stories like this later, and they were even more outrageous, which made him sad.

As rumors swirled around him, he reached the top and the end of the legendary singing story. He has never been able to tell his boss, who is called his brother, to leave. With the end of his studies, he must return to Changsha. There is no better reason than this. After repeated persuasion, he only agreed to perform a special concert in the end. Christmas is an important day, with posters flying all over the sky "I have Lee Seung-hee for Christmas" and "Pure West Concert". The preparations and rehearsals were in full swing, and the audience craned their necks to wait, but his appearance was so monotonous that everyone was stunned. Not reflected. Today, he was sitting in the audience. He picked up his guitar for the first time. He pointed at the small stage and said slowly: Usually, I stand there. Today, I am tired. I want to be among you and feel the feeling of looking up at the stage. At this time, he softly played and sang the song he sang when he first appeared on stage - Love Song 1990. Everything that followed was the grandest, the lighting, sound, arrangement, everything was worthy of a Christmas feast. Almost all of his most popular songs were reviewed, and everyone enjoyed the joy of the holiday in the carnival. At the end of the last song, he returned once again to express his thanks: I have been singing songs that everyone likes, but I still have a song in my heart that I want to bring to you today. Then, he sang the song DON'T KNOW WHY, but all the lyrics were changed by him. They were in Chinese. This was the first time he changed a song. He is singing about his inner expectations and helplessness. There is a lyric: Even if I know it will end, I will still start. Although there will be pain, I know you will not let me suffer alone.

At the last curtain call, he announced that this was his last performance. Everyone was in an uproar. He said: Goodbye, I love you. When I step off this stage, I hope you will completely forget about me. If one day, anyone sees me and my lover holding hands, walking in the vast sea of ??people, please don't say hello, just wish me silently in your heart. Thank you! After bowing for a long time, he walked away, leaving only the sigh that there will be no more singers in Beijing. . . . . .
