? 1987, Michael Jackson spent a special day in the rural area of Zhongshan, Guangdong. What did he do?

Michael Jackson is famous, but few people know that he also had a marriage with China. June 25th, 2009 is undoubtedly the saddest day for Michael Jackson fans all over the world. On this day, the superstar fell and there was no Jackson in the world.

Michael Jackson, known as the "head of pop music", has become the core role of popular songs all over the world as early as the early 1980s. In terms of songs, Michael Jackson has made great contributions to the plastic arts. He won 65,438+03 Grammy Music Awards and 26 American Music Awards in his life. It can be said that it has never been seen before, and there has been no one since. Apart from his excellent knowledge in plastic arts, Jackson's most admirable thing is that he pays special attention to the spiritual essence of humanitarian spirit. He once said: "I will concentrate on plastic arts and do my best to contribute everything to myself according to music, folk dances and songs."

He successfully transformed his music creation into a special tool for propaganda and planning, and made great contributions to getting rid of racial problems and ethnic obstacles. These people who love Jackson not only love his songs but also admire his personality. At first, Jackson's funeral was broadcast live to the whole world. According to official website's statistics, the global audience has reached 3 billion, so his loyal fans are at least 10 billion. He is also the singer with the most fans in the world. However, few people know that Jackson has been to China as a tourist, although he has never toured in China. He and China had a short marriage.

Time goes back to 1987. At that time, China was not very developed. Few foreign stars came to China. Even then, it was a metropolis like the Imperial City. That year, Jackson, who was vacationing in China and Hongkong, came to China as a real tourist. Instead of going to a bustling big city, he set his holiday address in the countryside of Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province.

Although Jackson was already a world-famous superstar at that time, he didn't deliberately put on some big iron shelves of kings and superstars that day, but only visited Zhongshan City accompanied by a very unassuming tour guide. Jackson also arrived in the village by bus that day. After getting off the bus, Jackson was like a child who had just seen the world. He was extremely curious about everything nearby and even thought it was interesting to see bison. He also knows the tour guide: "Can you shoot slowly?" But there was an episode in the middle. When Jackson approached the bison, the bison suddenly stepped on the pedal, and Jackson, who has always been radiant on the performance stage, was shocked.

But it didn't hurt his energy, and then he shouted at a buffalo for five minutes, laughing like an unrestrained teenager. Although the entertainment circle is very complicated, Jackson has always maintained that innocence in his heart. When he doesn't have to deal with surveillance cameras and reporters, he is like his next-door neighbor's brother. Jackson was full of curiosity about everything in the countryside. Although these historic houses and stone roads have some old feelings, they seem to be pure people on earth, which deeply attracted Jackson's attention. At that time, Jackson also strangely visited the home of a villager. The hostess of the house is over 70 years old. Despite her poor expressive ability, she gave Jackson a warm reception.

The old man showed Jackson around the simple living room and kitchen. Jackson is very friendly and polite to the amiable and intimate old people, and constantly communicates with them by hand or according to Chinese translation. Jackson also took a photo with the old man to show respect, and asked him to sit in front of him while he sat behind him.

They say the point is to look at people. Such a subtle gesture shows that Jackson is a humble and polite person. Before leaving, Jackson asked the old man, "How much will it cost?" The old man quickly waved and said, "No need." Even if the old man refused again and again, the kind Jackson asked his assistant to leave the old man 2000 Hong Kong dollars. At that time, the countryside was not very rich, and there was nothing at home. Jackson found the daily life of the elderly very difficult. He tried his best to help the old people improve their living conditions.

▲ After Jackson returned to Hongkong, China, he specially developed the photos and sent them home, and signed them.

Balzac once said: "A truly talented person is always kind-hearted, sharp and straightforward, and never shy." That's Jackson. Although he is a superstar of tens of thousands of people, he keeps a kind heart and is not carried away by fame and fortune. This is a real superstar. Jackson is not only kind-hearted, but also very amiable. At that time, when Jackson visited the village, many villagers and children were curious and followed him wherever he went. Jackson not only didn't resist, but also took the initiative to say hello to anyone. As a kung fu superstar, he doesn't feel cocky at all.

During the period, as long as someone asks him to sign or take a photo, he will stop and smile to meet everyone's requirements. After returning home, he will mail all these photos home, which are still collected by villagers.

This intimate behavior warmed the hearts of the villagers. When taking photos with the villagers, Jackson didn't pretend to be a handsome academic, but just showed a childlike innocent smile. In fact, Jackson himself loves children very much. He not only interacted closely with children, but also continued to take photos with them. Later, this photo was published in his personal biography. He said: "You can't resist the temptation of such children in China."

Jackson loves children because our children are naive, not mixed with all fame and fortune, and are by no means "pedophiles" reported by the news media. Later, he was slandered and molested by children, so you can imagine how painful he was. In addition to his obsession with local culture and customs and his love for local simple villagers, Jackson also had a strong interest in China culture and art, and he couldn't stop China-style handicrafts such as porcelain and nod. On the day he went to play, Jackson walked into a shop, and all kinds of artworks in the shop delighted him. He basically looked at all the goods in the shop carefully and finally bought a dozen little dolls.

Once some people reach a certain height-width ratio, they show off their high quality and luxurious material conditions all the time, and usually disdain ordinary people's goods for fear of lowering their level. But Jackson didn't. Although he has unlimited wealth and stands at an amazing aspect ratio, he is pragmatic and realistic.

In his eyes, people's wealth is different, but their personality traits are fair. These conceited people just turn a blind eye. From ancient times to the present, people who are truly capable of working and have cultural connotations are extremely humble. For a long time, there have been different misunderstandings about Jackson, and there are even rumors that Jackson paid great attention to water and ingredients, even to a harsh degree, but those who contacted him during that trip to Zhongshan denied this title. During the whole trip, Jackson was also very polite during the meal. He would say thank you to every waiter. He also pays special attention to the customs and habits in China, such as using chopsticks.

When eating, he used chopsticks persistently, which was also an acknowledgement of China's culture and art. Finally, he basically mastered the use of wooden chopsticks. Jackson was surprised by China's natural beauty and unique folk culture, and he could see his sincere attitude towards others.

Jackson's trip to China lasted only seven hours, but the rural beauty of Zhongshan and the simple daily life of the villagers were deeply impressed on his mind. He said to the tour guide, "The spectrometer in Zhongshan City is very similar to that in France, and everything is so green." After Jackson left, many villagers kept waving to him, and some people in the group invited him again, expecting him to have another chance to talk about China. Although Jackson may not understand it, he kept smiling and shaking hands with the villagers, feeling not like a superstar, but like an old friend far away.

Until now, the villagers who came into contact with Jackson still remember his voice when he mentioned him. Liu Guangzhi, a villager, said, "Although Jackson has left, I will still see photos and recall Jackson's frankness, easygoing and affability. He is an unparalleled superstar and everyone will miss him forever. "

People's memories are usually damaged, but even after 30 years, the villagers are still obsessed with Jackson. The short-lived fate made them realize the personality of a singer. After entering the 1990s, Jackson was supposed to come to China for a concert tour, and promised to donate $5 million to build a Hope Primary School in China. However, due to many reasons, this plan was not completed and became a shortcoming of Jackson's singing career. Jackson's trip to China showed everyone his unknown side. Up to now, when it comes to Jackson's integrity, the tour guide who received him at the beginning still feels very moved.

What impressed me most was: "Jackson didn't talk much when he was in good health." Many times he just watches quietly, but he is very close and will take the initiative to say hello to the children and take pictures. " In fact, this is Jackson's truest appearance. Although he is famous all over the world, he is a very friendly person and likes to get along quietly with others when he walks off the stage. He does this to fans and friends. Every time a fan meeting is held, he signs autographs for everyone and gives them a hug. He said, "I can make everyone proud because they are my fans."

Jackson experienced many disappointments in his life, but he never forgot to warm the world with his songs and actions. In his 50-year life, he has applied to 39 charitable foundations around the world, and he is the star who has donated the most charity in his own name. He pays attention to African children and tries to get rid of racial problems. He always tries his best to help the disadvantaged groups in social development. Although he is a superstar, he continues to maintain a modest posture. So some people say that one day they will be his fans, and they will be his fans all their lives.

Now Jackson has been dead for eleven years, but his folk dance and his singing have always remained in everyone's memory. He is like a beam of light in the dark, illuminating the whole world of thousands of people in Qian Qian, and only such a singer can be worthy of the word "outstanding".
