Xu Yuan is a stage actor and has performed in many musicals in Canada, such as "Jesus Christ Superstar", "Dream of the West", "Splendid Marriage", etc. He majored in performing arts in university.
I was born in a large family in Hong Kong, the youngest of ten brothers and sisters. I left Hong Kong for Vancouver at the age of ten. I only relied on books at home to maintain my understanding of Chinese. Chinese is from the works of Jin Yong, Gu Long, Qiong Yao, Zhang Ailing, etc. Self-taught.
Wishong has been passionate about music since she was a child. On her ninth birthday, she received a double vinyl record of "Jesus Christ Superstar" from her brother. She dreams of standing on stage and performing this classic opera one day. At the age of thirteen, he began to participate in stage plays at school. Fortunately, he met Grace Macdonald, the leading local musical master, and soon became active in the Vancouver musical circle. At the age of seventeen, his dream came true and he became one of the protagonists of "Jesus Christ Superstar" and officially became a professional actor.
While abroad, I made a wish and never forgot to contribute to the local Chinese. I formed a Chinese band (SYTHESOUND) with my friends and performed publicly for the Chinese, mainly with Chinese songs. He also worked as a choreographer for the Miss Chinatown contest twice. At the same time, I met Teresa Teng, who performed on stage in Vancouver, by chance at a party. Teresa Teng did not act like a big name at all. They drank and chatted with each other. For the first time, the young Xuyuan had a close observation of the true personality of a generation of queens. Because his family does not support Xu Wan's artistic development, he can only make ends meet independently. Sometimes a month's worth of food is just a box of instant noodles. The university courses are rigorous and the workload is extremely heavy. Unfortunately, Xu Wish was injured during a performance. While recovering from his injuries, he returned to Hong Kong to visit relatives. He was hired by Hong Kong TVB and signed an artist contract, but he never filmed a single episode. Instead, he participated in the production of hundreds of concerts and large-scale comprehensive programs, and had the opportunity to collaborate with young idols (Dexian Ip, Wang Mingquan, Zheng Shaoqiu, Su Rui, etc.).
At that time, the first person that Mr. Xu wanted to serve was Leslie Cheung, who would work with him many times in the future. At the same time, I made a wish and met Teresa Teng again, whom I met by chance in Canada. As a professional musical actor, Wishing naturally shares his years of hard work and experience with his friends in the music industry, allowing them to shine on stage. In this way, Xu Wan became an important celebrity mentor in Hong Kong. From superstars like Jackie Chan and Xu Guanjie to newcomers Jacky Cheung and Lu Fang... they all learned from Xu Wan one by one. As the hero behind the scenes, Xu Wan has an unparalleled magnanimity. At that time, there was a student who was too introverted due to the inaccurate positioning of the record company. He was drifting without direction due to the popularity of two other students, Lin Shanshan and Priscilla Chan. Make a wish to rebrand this artist in 1987, making her the only female singer to win the top ten Chinese hits and the top ten hits on the same stage as Anita Mui within a year. A superstar was born like a legend - Lin Yilian.
The two then collaborated for eight years, creating numerous musical breakthroughs, such as the first use of R&B, Hip Hop, and Jazz music elements, combined with traditional Chinese and Asian instruments, and successfully changed Chinese pop music. The cooperation and relationship between the two is complicated and confusing, something that the Hong Kong entertainment industry has tried to understand but failed over the years. There are many inaccurate opinions and speculations. If the two of them don't say anything, no one will know. The two even broke the record of being the youngest in the Hong Kong music scene that year with the Faces & Places album, and won the "Best Producer" award.
Although the story of this pair of music lovers can only be found in the songwriter's accidental mapping, what is certain is that Xu Wish single-handedly successfully opened up Taiwan for Lin Yilian against all odds (I heard that Rolling Stone Records and UFO Records were both Pay no attention to him), Japan, and mainland China are three important markets. That is, before Faye Wong and after Teresa Teng, there were Chinese female singers who could successfully hold concerts and release records in various places. Teacher Xu also successfully introduced Lin Zailun to another outstanding music partner, Li Zongsheng. In 1990, Wishing successfully founded "Star Factory" (later renamed Star Factory), a diversified entertainment production company with artist department, music department, music copyright department, dance department, and art department to provide customers with different levels of Production services.
The amazing production of "Star Factory" in the next ten years not only involved different collaborations between the Four Heavenly Kings and other superstars (including Nicholas Tse's first two albums, Cecilia Cheung's "Star Talk" and many of Twins' works), but also cultivated Many talents in different aspects: (artists) Jordan Chan, Nicholas Tse, Chen Hao, Li Sijie... (musicians) Jin Peida, Zhao Zengxi, Zhu Zhendong, Wu Lecheng, Xie Guowei... won the Golden Horse Award, Hong Kong Film Awards, and other major music awards, golden songs countless.
Personally, Wish Wish won the IFPI Record Award for "Better Start Again" in 1993 and the Porsche Design Creative Power Award in 1999. In 1994, Hui Yuan first came into contact with the film industry. He used "9 to 5" as a touchstone and incorporated a large number of his familiar musical elements into the film. The success of "9 to 5" has made people in the industry pay more attention to film soundtracks, and it has also made Wishing have an indissoluble bond with the film industry. The success of the "Butterfly Lovers" and "Young and Dangerous" series helped him launch another star - Jordan Chan! In 1996, Wish was recognized by industry insiders and twice elected him as a board director of the Hong Kong Composers and Lyricists Association. In 2001, he promoted the creation of the Golden Sail Music Awards, the only music award for Hong Kong musicians. With the strong support of Leslie Cheung, the first CASH music ambassador, it is still the industry standard in the Hong Kong music scene.
The theme song composed and performed by Leslie Cheung for the Golden Sail Music Awards, "Noah's Ark", still controls the spirit of Hong Kong music. But it was also the last collaboration between Teacher Wishing and her brother! In 1996, the news of the marriage between Teacher Wishing and actress Li Lizhen caused a sensation. In 1999, Li Lizhen won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress in "A Thousand Words" directed by Anhua Hui, which caused the industry to change its name from "talented scholar" to "geek". In 2004, "Geek" published his first book, "New Wishes Come True", and all proceeds were donated to the United Nations Children's Fund for disaster relief.
Rumor has it that she divorced Li Lizhen in 2001 and was persecuted by evil forces. Even though "Wild Flowers" was selected by netizens and the media as the "Top Ten Best Movies of the Last Century" or "The Most Influential Movie" One of the music albums > and other honors, Teacher Xu would rather give up the "Star Factory" and slowly fade out of the Hong Kong entertainment industry. He spends most of his time in Hollywood and Vancouver, USA, resting and educating his beloved daughter Yi Rong.
