Thirty-two years ago today, on October 25, 1993 (September 11, 1993 in the lunar calendar), Hong Kong singer Chen Baiqiang passed away. Chen Baiqiang (September 7, 1958 - October 25, 1993), English name Danny Chan, so he was called Danny Zai. He was born in Hong Kong and was originally from Taishan, Guangdong. He was a late Hong Kong pop singer who passed away on October 25, 1993 due to progressive brain failure. Chen Baiqiang, born in Hong Kong on September 7, 1958, was much loved as a child. His father, who was a businessman, especially loved his son. The two sons and one daughter born to Mr. Chen and another wife were some distance from DANNY's age. DANNY won his father's favor since he was a child. Coupled with his shrewdness and liveliness, his father was even more obedient to him. Chen Baiqiang graduated from St. Paul's Co-educational High School and is an alumnus with Zhou Liang Shuyi and Zhuang Jing. DANNY is keen to participate in large and small music activities on campus, and is more proficient in electronic organ and piano. Chen's father originally hoped that DANNY would focus on his studies and inherit the mantle when he grew up. But Chen Baiqiang was all about singing, not studying. He dropped out of school after graduating from high school and stayed at home. He made a cameo appearance in the "Winner Band" formed by Allen and others at that time, singing English songs on the radio. He was later sent to the Sanfan City Conservatory in the United States for further study by his father. In 1977, he returned to Hong Kong and won the championship of Hong Kong Yamaha electronic organ. In the same year, he won the third place in a "pop song composition competition". Then he joined EMI (EMI) record company as its basic singer. The following year, he became popular in the singing world with a song "Tears for You", and later "Cheers", "Ripples", "How Precious Tonight" and many other songs were very popular. He became an idol with his strength. In 1986, Chen Baiqiang ended his relationship with Warner Records due to a breakdown during the release of the album "When I Think of You". Chen Baiqiang switched to DMI Records in the same year. Chen Baiqiang's albums "Gaze", "Obsessive Eye Hidden", "Dream Man" and "Misty Rain Misery" released by DMI achieved platinum sales. In 1987, Chen Baiqiang starred in "Autumn Fairy Tale" with Chow Yun-fat and Zhong Chuhong, which turned out to be a big hit. Chen Baiqiang also won the Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Award at the end of the year for his self-described "My Story" in the album "Dream Man". In 1988, Chen Baiqiang regained the Top 10 Golden Songs Award for the lost five years with "Misty Rain" from his album "Misty Rain and Misery". Chen Baiqiang won the Bronze Award for Male Singer in the Music Industry at the year-end awards ceremony, second only to Tan Yilin and Cheung Guorong. In 1989, Chen Baiqiang participated in the Tokyo Music Festival and won the TBS Award for his old song "I Just Like You". This year, he returned to Warner Records and won awards at the year-end awards ceremony with the theme song "What Do You Want in a Life" from the popular TV series "Unforgiving". Chen Baiqiang seems to be able to dominate the awards at the time when Tam Yonglin and Cheung Guorong begin to semi-retire. Unfortunately, when entering the 1990s, the younger generation of singers including Jacky Cheung, Liming, Andy Lau, etc. quickly occupied a favorable position in the music scene. And Chen Baiqiang's career soon stagnated again. In 1991, after launching the "91 Chen Baiqiang Purple Individual Concert"; was selected as one of the "Top Ten Most Popular Singers" by Guangzhou; announced a temporary farewell to the music scene; felt enough about the more than ten years of entertainment industry career, and hoped to enjoy life after retirement. And plans to hold a farewell concert in 1992 to temporarily bid farewell to the music scene. 1992: Three "Farewell Concerts in Shanghai" were held; it was officially announced that he would bid farewell to the music scene at the end of this year; he returned to Shanghai to perform with the "Green Full World" Chinese and foreign Red Star Show; he was sent to Mary Hospital in a coma on May 18; at first, Danny just wanted to say goodbye temporarily, but after careful consideration, it was better to say goodbye formally. This farewell was not tired of singing career, but just wanted to change the current living environment and enjoy a peaceful life. At 10:00 pm on May 18, 1992, Chen Baiqiang suddenly fainted and was immediately sent to Mary Hospital for treatment. He was in a coma for 17 months and died on October 25, 1993 at the age of 35. In terms of musical cultivation, Chen Baiqiang can be regarded as a generalist. He knows how to compose music, and his lyrics are not bad. In addition to singing well, he also plays the piano well. In the Hong Kong music scene, it is actually very rare for a singer like Chen Baiqiang to be "full-body knife".
