When it comes to the annual CCTV Spring Festival Gala, the most memorable song is Li Guyi's "Unforgettable Tonight", which has accompanied countless Chinese for 18 consecutive years, and seems to have become a common memory of retiring the old and welcoming the new, and has long been a sense of ceremony in the hearts of the Chinese people. Li Guyi, an artist who is over 76 years old, insists on accompanying the audience to sing to welcome the New Year every year, and the spirit behind it is admirable and moving.
Born in 1944 in Kunming, Yunnan Province, Li Guyi graduated from the Dance Department of Hunan Provincial Academy of Arts at the age of 17 and was successfully selected as an actor in Hunan Provincial Flower Drum Drama Theater, thus beginning a brilliant 50-year stage career. In 1964, Li Guyi, who was only 20 years old at the time, starred in the flower drum drama movie "Patching the Pot" to break out of popularity; Li Guyi, who acted and sang, and was successively guided by famous teachers such as Jin Tielin, Shen Xiang, and Guo Shuzhen, eventually became a mainland soprano singer, a national first-class actor, and enjoyed special allowances from the State Council.
Emotionally, the old artist Li Guyi has had two marriages. His first husband was his mentor Jin Tielin, a famous vocal education artist. In 1967, Li Guyibai, who was only 23 years old at the time, became a student under Jin Tielin and became a student with Song Zuying and Yan Weiwen. Because of their long-term love and lingering love, the two masters and apprentices entered the marriage hall regardless of the world's vision, and the "teacher-student love" was cultivated to a positive result.
Unfortunately, the disparity in age made Li Guyi and Jin Tielin contradict each other after marriage, and eventually agreed to divorce due to the estrangement of married life and personality problems, and it is also said that Jin Tielin was "passively divorced" and did not have children in marriage. After the divorce, after years of emotional window, the former husband and wife have also found their own happiness in life; Jin Tielin remarried his 18-year-old young wife Ma Qiuhua, gave birth to a son in marriage, and upgraded a happy family of three.
On the other hand, after the loss of marriage, Li Guyi accepted the pursuit of Xiao Zhuoneng, a "super fan" who was 6 years older than him, and the two quickly fell in love and walked together for 37 years. It is reported that Xiao Zhuoneng is a fan of Li Guyi and often goes to see the other party's live performances. After boldly pursuing and capturing the heart, he buried the skylight, and had a daughter named "Xiao Yi" in marriage, carrying the common love of her parents.
Unfortunately, on May 29, Li Guyi's current husband, Xiao Zhuoneng, died of illness at the age of 82. Yesterday (3) Li Guyi's disciple Fu Disheng posted a tribute on the social platform to bid farewell to "Uncle Xiao for a ride"; after hearing the bad news, netizens also left messages "all the way". The widowed Li Guyi was extremely sad, but fortunately, accompanied by a well-behaved daughter, he had come out of the haze festival to mourn and change.
The 76-year-old Li Guyi and her husband have been in love for 37 years, and everyone's understanding of Xiao Zhuoneng is only the label of "Li Guyi's husband". But in fact, this is not the case, Xiao Zhuoneng is not only a well-known entrepreneur, but also a descendant of the Founding Father; his father is the founding general Xiao Jinguang (the third son), and his family is prominent.
