The Little Tigers have brought beautiful memories to a generation. I believe that people of this generation listen not only to songs but also to the beautiful memories of the past. They miss the past, friendship, family, love, beautiful childhood and other beautiful and happy memories. "Little Tigers" was the most popular Little Tigers team emblem in Taiwan, China and even the Asian pop music scene in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
The singing group was the pioneer of group break dance, group hip-hop, and combination dance moves in Asia. Disbanded due to members' military service. The appearance of the Little Tigers was purely accidental. In July 1988, Taiwan's Kaili Company launched a "TV Rookie Competition" program. The participants in the program were all teenagers, and the content was quite fresh. Three girls formed a "Kitten Team" to serve as host assistants. The program was very popular. welcome. So someone suggested that three male assistants should be added to balance the yin and yang in the picture. Therefore, Kaili Company posted an advertisement recruiting three boys. After various assessments and selection of dancing and singing skills, three young boys stood out. Since the previous three female hosts were named "Kitten Team", the new boy group was named "Little Tiger Team", which is similar to "Little Tiger Team". Cat Team" to respond. They are "Thunderbolt Tiger" Wu Qilong (18 years old), "Little Handsome Tiger" Chen Zhipeng (17 years old) and "Goodbye Tiger" Su Youpeng (15 years old). They first helped the company with the behind-the-scenes assistant, styling and transportation work. Unexpectedly, as soon as these three energetic teenagers appeared on TV to do programs, they stole the limelight of all program hosts, and they jumped from supporting roles to The protagonist of the show set off a viewing frenzy across Taiwan. After watching the show of "Little Tigers", the top executives of the record company "UFO" discovered their potential in advance and decisively signed them.

As a result, the three Little Tigers transformed themselves into the first boyband band composed of three middle school boys, and began to try their hand at recording music. They have their own dance music style, are graceful, open and healthy, and have become the idols of countless teenagers in just a few months. The three teenagers danced dynamically and handsomely. Not only are they good at dancing, but each of the three of them is a talented young man full of musical talent (including his later solo career, each of the three has his own music composition). After the release of Little Tigers' two singles "Colorful Sky Colorful Dream" and "Green Apple Paradise", they immediately swept the entire Asian music scene. Boys crazily imitate their dances and looks, and girls crazily collect their magazines and posters. The birth of "Green Apple Paradise" MTV and "Escape" MTV made Asian fans feel the lethality of boys' hip-hop MTV for the first time. The words "idol" and "star chaser" were born because of the Little Tigers. A few months later, a fast-paced pop album "Xiaoyaoyou" mixed with the high-level chorus of the Little Tigers was born. Just ten days after its release, the album "Xiaoyaoyou" exceeded 2 million copies across Asia. Three young boys who were still in middle school, like a tornado and tsunami, swept across Asia with the most dazzling dance and pop music. The Little Tigers’ music style is unique. The strong subtropical rainforest R&B atmosphere in "Boys Don't Cry" is a true portrayal of them; the strong Japanese electronic tick-tap dance music in "Colorful Skies and Colorful Dreams" represents the rebellion and popularity of a new generation of young Asian boys; "Happy Journey" and "Burning the Flame of Youth" express young people's yearning for free life; "Date with the Stars" allows young people to understand the relationship between love and zodiac signs; and with the song "Love", they express their concern for deaf-mute children. Sign language singing touched a generation. The songs of Little Tigers are not only loved by fans in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but also in mainland China. Their popularity in Asia even exceeds that of Michael Jackson and The Beatles. Not only that, the promotional portraits of the Little Tigers have also become objects of collection.

At the same time, their songs "Boys Don't Cry" and "Red Dragonfly" were on Taiwan's "90 Top Ten Golden Songs Chart". The Tiger Team's vitality continues.

After releasing their 6th album "Goodbye", they announced their disbandment. In their songs, they promised their fans, "Please believe we will meet again tomorrow." The peak period of the three people's era ended, and all the development of the three people started from scratch.

During this period, he learned to perform Henan opera and behind-the-scenes production with veterans of the art troupe. In December 1993, Xiao Shuaihu retired from the army, and the three continued to reorganize the Xiaohu team. After the release of the album "The Stars Still Shine", the "The Stars Still Shine" fan club was held and the results were still impressive. However, since everyone has formed their own unique style, and the economic company found that the profits of three people's solo films were better than that of a team, the "Little Tiger Team" team time became less, but they still managed to earn one film per year. During this period, three albums were released: "The feeling of happiness is always the same" (1994), "Mediocre People Disturbing" (1995), and "Tiger Roaring and Dragon Soaring - Complete Record of the 1995 Concert" (1996).

As the number one idol of the Chinese people, Little Tigers has been imitated and never surpassed. It laid an important foundation for the subsequent boys’ street fashion, underground fashion, and tropical beach trend culture, and also promoted the popularity of karaoke. The combination dance steps of the Little Tigers are not difficult to learn, but they have led the craze of an era. The handsome and explosive dance style, coupled with the fanatical fan base, makes the Little Tigers beat the female groups in any era.
