1958, Danny Chan was born in Hongkong, a clock giant. It can be said that he was born with a golden key. Although his father loved him deeply and had no worries about food and clothing, his childhood was not happy. All this is because his mother is his second wife, so his life is always in the middle of a big room. He has an amazing musical talent since he was a child, but his father hopes that he can inherit his mantle. For this reason, the relationship between father and son was once stiff, but in the end. But these experiences also made him feel extremely inferior from birth, so he pursued perfection in everything.
1979, a song "Tears for You" made Danny Chan shine in the music world. At this time, his good friend Leslie Cheung was still a nobody. Although he has released many albums, they are all unknown and the development of film and television is not satisfactory. So, at that time, Danny Chan was better than Leslie Cheung. Therefore, in many film and television works, Danny Chan is naturally the protagonist, and Leslie Cheung can only be his supporting role. All negative emotions under fame are locked up.
As time went on, Leslie Cheung, Alan Tam and others began to make their mark in the music industry. At that time, as the king of music and a perfectionist, Danny Chan was overtaken or even surpassed by the latecomers, and his negative emotions broke out, which also made him suffer from depression. In order to regain his lost position, he changed his old style at 1985 and appeared in the black singing bar. As a result, he was severely criticized by public opinion. At this point, he fell off the altar and became a stepping stone for others. Depression is further aggravated, and sleep can only be controlled by drugs.
After that, President Tan retired from the music world for hegemony and regained the throne through his own efforts, but the chair was not hot. Four kings? And in the river's lake, but also aggravated the shadow of Danny Chan's heart. While pursuing perfection in his career, his emotional path has also been frustrated repeatedly.
In the early days of filming Applause with Leslie Cheung, Zhong Baoluo and others, I met the heroine Weng Jingjing, but they didn't get together in the end. After that, Weng Jingjing threw herself into the arms of Liu Jialiang, a married man more than 30 years older than herself. The matchmaker was his good friend Leslie Cheung. Although Leslie Cheung was unintentional, it was a big blow to Danny Chan. Another well-known relationship of Danny Chan is with He Chaoqiong, the daughter of the gambling king.
At first, the gambling king didn't interfere with their relationship too much, but Danny Chan, who never liked music, probably thought of his daughter just for fun. However, with the decline of Dazhaimen, the burden of family inheritance fell on He Chaoqiong. Although the two are of the same kind, the marriage of rich and powerful people has always been a wealth marriage. Danny Chan can only watch his beloved woman marry Xu Jinheng, the grandson of the ship king. The inner pain comes from the lyrics in his "Because I Love You"? If you want to fall in love with someone else, you feel that there is no love in life? You can get a glimpse of it.
A perfectionist has experienced multiple blows from career, friendship and love. Danny Chan may have planted the seeds of tragedy after suffering from depression, but in any case, we should thank him for bringing us many classic works.
