Liu Wenzheng can be so popular in the Chinese pop music scene in Asia. In addition to the handsome appearance, personal unique singing skills, luxurious performance forms, and the strong lyric skills of Taiwanese singing skills, etc.In addition, there is a very special factors to create his position in contemporary Chinese pop music idol originator.

Recently, Liu Wenzheng, who has retired from the entertainment industry for many years, has no idea that he has been passed down several times and has been rumored again a day later.Although he had no news for more than 30 years and never appeared in front of the media, when his death was reported, he still shocked the Chinese circle and made many uncle and aunt in Southeast Asia when he was young.

Maybe for today's young people, it is difficult to imagine how popular Liu Wen was at the time.To describe this, he is Jay Chou of that era. Is it easier to understand?

More importantly, he can be regarded as the first male singer who is popular in Asia in the contemporary Chinese pop music scene, and the first singer to create a TV show to make a TV show.

However, the reason why Liu Wenzheng can be so popular in the Chinese pop music scene in Asia, except for the handsome appearance, personal unique singing skills, luxurious performance forms, and the strong lyric creative ability of Taiwanese singing scenes.There is also a very special factors that have created his position in contemporary Chinese pop music idol originator.

That is from the 1970s to the 1980s, the Chinese cultural circle in Asia is just under the Cold War structure of the United States and the Soviet Union.Because of this structure of confrontation, the overseas Chinese circle in the free world is not many sources when obtaining Chinese -related cultural products, at least for Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and Macau.Entering cultural products from mainland China will have many political concerns and taboos, which is not easy.

On the other hand, the new horse "since ancient times" is the consumer target area of Chinese entertainment and cultural commodities, including Shanghai in the Republic of China and later Hong Kong. Many literati and entertainment stars have regarded Xinma as an important market.In the 1980s, Xinma began to implement the "Chinese" campaign, actively learned Chinese, and also had a great demand for Chinese pop songs and film and television products that can sing the righteousness of the characters.

But at this time, mainland China was relatively closed, and there were not many works output, and it was not easy to obtain.Many early mainland singers who moved to Hong Kong were old and no longer active. Hong Kong mainly focused on Cantonese.Under these many conditions, Taiwan's popular songs and film and television products naturally fill this vacancy.In this unique space -time environment, Liu Wenzheng is precisely the superstar in Taiwan's red half of the sky, and of course it has become a male singer who is popular all over the Chinese pop music scene in Asia.

Shortly after the Chinese record market in Taiwan and singers dominated and dominated the Liberty World Chinese Popular Song Market, Chinese singers from other countries or regions also slowly form an idea, that is, if it cannot be based on the Chinese pop music scene in TaiwanThe career has not been realized by the international Chinese music scene.

In fact, Liu Wenzheng has a profound impact on Taiwan's status of such a Chinese pop music temple.This is because of his career development trajectory, and there is a special relationship with the Chinese music scene in the New Malaysia area.

In 1984, Liu Wenzheng ended the contract with the record company, faded out of the music scene, no longer recording records and singing, but also set up a flying eagle company to retire behind the scenes to cultivate rookies in Chinese singing. After that, he developed the company's tentacles to Singapore.During this period, he discovered Wu Qixian, a popular singer who had been very popular during the new rumor, to introduce Wu Qixian, who was originally from Malaysia to Taiwan.Liu Wenzheng's decision made Wu Qixian the first singer in Xinma to sing Chinese songs, and he could also stand up in the Chinese Chinese pop music world.

Wu Qixian was able to stand in Taiwan and stabilize the heel, glowing and heat, and inspired the later New Malaysian Chinese singers, and they were able to debut in Taiwan as their goal of singing.Since then, the Taiwan music scene has officially become the benchmark of the Chinese pop music scene.

Coincidentally, it is also interesting that when Liu Wen was ending his record career in 1991 and completely retired from the entertainment industry, the Cold War in the United States and the Soviet Union also slowly changed with the end of the Soviet Union.

After this, the Chinese pop music scene is not only the talents of the new Malaysian singer, but also the return of Hong Kong because of the return in 1997. Hong Kong singers began to sing Chinese songs.Mainland singers have invested a lot in the Chinese music scene. Formed by the Cold War, the unique time and space environment of Taiwanese singers dominated by Chinese singers has been gone since then!

However, as the US -China confrontation pattern of the United States and China has become clearer in recent years, it is really difficult to keep it for a day. The younger generation of listeners will once again fascinate Chinese pop music in the Cold War!
