This song "Broader Sea and Sky" is one of the most classic songs by the band Beyong.

To this day, it is still irreplaceable in people's hearts and has become a kind of belief.

It is the spiritual support for people to get back up when they are feeling down and lost.

This song sings the inner emotions of the band's lead singer Huang Jiaju, and sings about his glorious and melancholy life.

In 1962, Huang Jiaju was born in a fairly ordinary working family in Hong Kong.

There are seven people in the family, and the whole family is squeezed into a small house of no more than 30 square meters.

Huang Jiaju has been reserved and quiet since he was a child, and he never dared to think about music.

In other words, Wong Ka Kui didn’t know what music was until he was 12 years old.

Wong Ka Kui was taken to a party by his sister. At that time, her sister liked David Bowie very much. This was Wong Ka Kui’s first exposure to music.

He was shocked. As the rock music slowly swayed, Huang Jiaju seemed to have a resonance with the music.

From then on, Huang Jiaju fell in love with the feeling that music brought to him and became addicted to music.

At home, I used my badminton racket as a guitar, singing and playing in my hands while my body swayed, intoxicated with myself.

At the age of 17, Huang Jiaju got his first musical "artifact".

The neighbor discarded a lot of debris when he moved. Huang Jiaju, who happened to be passing by, saw the acoustic guitar in the debris pile at a glance.

Huang Jiaju cherished a broken guitar and polished it carefully over and over again when he went home.

This was Huang Jiaju’s first “instrument” to fight for his ideals, and it also gave him a deeper understanding of the meaning of music.

He kept in touch at home day and night, and received many complaints from his neighbors. Despite this, Huang Jiaju wanted to join the band and give it a try.

However, he was ridiculed by the band's lead singer: "At this level, you still play rock and roll?"

Although not recognized by the band, Wong Ka Kui's music influenced his younger brother Wong Ka Keung.

Both brothers fell in love with music. Wong Ka Kui talked about the guitar, while Wong Ka Keung was the bassist.

After waiting for a while, Huang Jiaju felt that the time was ripe and began to find people to form a band.

It is not easy to find like-minded people. After many people came and went, no successful formation was achieved.

Until the owner of the music store introduced Yip Sai Wing to Wong Ka Kui, the two hit it off and joined two of their friends to form a band.

From then on, Beyond, a top rock band in the Chinese area, was formed.

In the 1980s, the Hong Kong music scene showed serious homogeneity, and there was nothing new in the entire music scene.

At this time, a musician named Blackbird launched the magazine "Guitar" and held a competition to discover more musical talents.

At this time, Beyond signed up and won first place, officially debuting as a band.

In 1986, the band released its first album "Goodbye Ideal" but it was a huge hit, with no one buying it and getting no attention.

Even the concerts held at his own expense had no obvious achievements.

In 1988, Beyond sang "Nothing" at a concert, but the attendance rate was not even 50%.

And this song is sung in Cantonese. The audience didn't understand it at all, and the concert almost became a concert with only the singers.

At this time, Wong Ka Kui was not discouraged. He said: "The most uncomfortable thing is the transition period. Because everyone agrees that we are an underground band, when we are on the "surface", they think that we should not be on the ground." "The album will be released soon."

When everyone is not optimistic about this band, Huang Jiaju feels that he just wants to prove the strength of this band.

Soon the band released the album "Secret Police" and one of the songs, "Earth", received great recognition.

Huang Jiaju’s music creation is to incorporate his own feelings into it, and the ups and downs in the lyrics tell his true feelings.

The subsequent song "Really Love You" made the band's popularity continue to rise, and everyone felt that maybe this was not called rock.

However, Huang Jiaju feels that music cannot be restricted to a certain style. Music is art and a fusion of different emotions.

The song "Like You" made people heartbroken, which made Beyond's popularity rise in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Mainland.

But business dreams are always linked to profits, and Beyond’s company has always asked them to write songs.

Including where to sing, and the frequent commercial activities that prevent them from concentrating on creation.

After enduring it again and again, Wong Ka Kui said, "There is no music scene in Hong Kong, only the entertainment industry", and Beyond went to Japan.

There is no business environment in Japanese life. You can come and go and concentrate on creating, but it is difficult because of the differences in language and regional culture.

There was no big response after the release of the first album "Beyond" in Japan.

But Wong Ka-kui, who never gave up, released the classic "Happiness and Fury" in 1993.

One of the songs, "Broad Sea and Sky", put Beyond on the unsurpassed level in the music world. peak.

At this time, the band had just become famous in Japan and needed more visibility. Beyond decided to agree to the record company to participate in a Japanese game show.

On June 24, 1993, when the Japanese variety show "Whatever You Want" was being recorded, the show had just started for half an hour.

The host Mi Guangliang wore a safety helmet during the show when he was presiding over the move.

The moment he accidentally stepped on the air and slipped, he instinctively grabbed Huang Jiaju who was next to him.

This caused Huang Jiaju to fall from a 2.7-meter high platform and fell into coma on the spot. He was sent to the hospital for rescue and died 6 days later.

The "culprit" Mitsuyoshi Uchimura, who was wearing a helmet, only suffered minor injuries because he was wearing a helmet and landed on his buttocks.

This is unacceptable to people. At the age of 31, Huang Jiaju passed away like this in the prime of his life.

Some netizens did not accept the fact that Wong Ka Kui died and asked why he wore a safety helmet when recording the show.

Why are only the hosts wearing safety helmets but not the guests? What kind of unknown "conspiracy theory" is behind this horrifying detail?

Yes The explanation of this program group is: "I never thought that such an accident would happen." Can a young life be cleared away in just one sentence?

It is said that after Wong Ka-kui’s accident, the biggest discovery made by the police was the baffle broken by Wong Ka-kui at the scene.

It is not a hard wooden board, but a prop wooden board that is no different from movie shooting props. Its hardness is no different from foam.

So many years have passed since the incident, and the truth has been forever buried in the long river of time.

Uchimura Mitsuhiro, who fell down with Wong Ka-kui at the time, recovered quickly and his career was not affected.

After 27 years, Uchimura Mitsuhiro is still active on the variety show stage. The popularity remains undiminished.

In 2019, Nippon Television also announced that Miguang Liang will continue to serve as the comprehensive host of the 70th Red and White Song Festival.

Huang Jiaju’s death is a loss to the Chinese music scene and even the world’s music scene.

I have just reached the top and haven’t had time to feel the stronger cheers.

Even if Mr. Huang Ka-kui leaves, he will always live in our sky.
