Last year The Voice of China, the most popular TV talent show became a popular topic in people’s chatting and media information from both home and abroad. It began on July 13, 2012 and ended on September 30, 2012. Liang Bo, a handsome boy from Changchun, Jilin was the champion of The Voice of China in 2012. Before the competition Liang Bo was just an ordinary college student studying music. He captured (夺得) the hearts of audience (观众) with his passionate (激情的) rock’n’roll (摇滚) performance at the show.
Fans described Liang’s voice as “natural, clear and touching’’. Although he seemed cool on stage, he could quickly turn on the power once he started singing. “His performances make you imagine things. When I listen to his singing, I see pictures and think of stories.” said Na Ying, one of the four judges (评判员) on the show. She was also Liang’s tutor for the competition.
Liang Bo, like many young Chinese, he fell in love with music through playing the guitar. Liang got his first guitar as a birthday gift when he was in middle school. He would spend days and nights practicing. “ I can’t live without my guitar.” he said.
“ I don’t like talking much but I carry great passion inside me,” Liang said. “ There is no better way to let it out than through music like rock’n’roll. Many people compare Liang to famous Chinese rockers including Xu Wei, Wang Feng and Zheng Jun. But the young man doesn’t want to stand in others’ shadow. “ I respect those rockers, but I’m not going to copy them. I will be who I am,” he said.
