Chen Xiaochun Dreams of becoming a Fire-fighter
Chen Xiaochun(陳小春)talked about his childhood during an interview with reporters. He said, “I was very naughty as a child. In order to let me know the hard life, Father took me from Hong Kong to the countryside in Huiyang County, Guangdong Province. There I did different kinds of farm work, such as seeding and harvesting. And I often grazed the cattle, living a life like that in fairy tales.”
He can still remember the hard life there. It became dark at 8 p.m. He could do nothing but listen to the radio, and what he had for breakfast was only wild herbs(野菜). He learned something very important from this experience, that is, you will have a better understanding of the comfortable life only after you have had a hard life.
He told the reporters frankly, “there is no star in Hong Kong now. I am not a star, either, but a singer and actor. The image of the stars in Hong Kong has been damaged by the press. The early stars had a good relationship with the media (媒體), but nowadays such a relationship is very bad, because the press is especially interested in exposing the private life of stars.” He added that many artists are unwilling to talk about their private life. As a matter of fact, he said, the artists have no choice but to tell a lie.

陳小春的夢(mèng)想是當(dāng)消防員
陳小春在一次接受記者采訪時(shí)談到了自己的童年，“小時(shí)候，我是個(gè)很調(diào)皮的孩子，爸爸把我從香港拉到廣東惠陽(yáng)老家農(nóng)村體驗(yàn)生活。那時(shí)候我插秧、收割的農(nóng)活都干，還常拉著水牛出去吃草�；蠲撁撘粋�(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的放牛娃，像童話(huà)一樣。”
他回憶說(shuō)：“晚上8點(diǎn)多，天就黑了，山里什么都沒(méi)有，只能聽(tīng)收音機(jī)，早上只能吃野菜。小時(shí)候過(guò)了這種生活，長(zhǎng)大后才發(fā)現(xiàn)，其實(shí)先品嘗了苦才能更知道甜的味道。”
直率的小春告訴記者：“香港已經(jīng)沒(méi)有明星了，我也不是明星，只是一個(gè)演員一個(gè)歌手。香港明星早被媒體打垮了。大家早期認(rèn)識(shí)的香港明星，都跟媒體關(guān)系很好，可現(xiàn)在明星和媒體的關(guān)系破裂了，因?yàn)橛行┟襟w專(zhuān)門(mén)報(bào)道明星的隱私。”他說(shuō)：“很多藝人談到一些私人的事情，都不愿意講，其實(shí)藝人講假話(huà)都是被逼的。”
陳小春還說(shuō)，他小時(shí)候的人生夢(mèng)想是當(dāng)一個(gè)消防員，“很英勇的，有火還要往里沖。但如今卻失去了很多自由，做什么事情都要小心點(diǎn)，可‘小心點(diǎn)’是不符合我的個(gè)性的。”
