"Like everyone else, I am a flesh-and-blood person with rich emotions. It's just that my body has a thick layer of hair than you. However, I love art, I love singing, and I am willing to use my singing voice to blend with everyone. ”
A teenager stood in the center of the stage, holding a microphone and shouting out his heart, the only difference was that he was a "hairy child".
From birth, the boy had to suffer from the strange eyes of others, he once wanted to take his life lightly, and it was the persistence of his parents that made him see a new life.
Today's "Hair Child" has become an actor and singer, rain or shine on the road of dreams, and even married a girl 13 years younger than himself, which can be said to be the envy of others.
Today we will walk into the extraordinary life of Yu Zhenhuan, the "first hairy child in China", to see how he smiled and lived a bleak life.
Crazy growth in adversity
On September 30, 1977, in a remote mountain village in Xiuyan County, Liaoning Province, a middle-aged man was wandering in his courtyard.
The screams of his wife came from inside the house, and Lao Yu picked up his daughter next to him and said with tears in his eyes:
"Let's pray for Mom together, okay?"
Before the words could be heard, the door was suddenly opened, and the midwife ran out of the house with a panicked face, and Lao Yu hurried to inquire
"What happened?" Dystocia? ”
The panicked midwife left a word and left in a hurry
"I can't do this job, you find someone else!" ”
Lao Yu hurried into the house to check what was happening, and the scene in front of him really scared him enough, and his wife's lower body revealed a baby's head, but this head was covered with hair!
No wonder midwives panicked, in the countryside of that era, the birth of such a "freak" must have been an ominous sign.
But in any case, this child is the son of the old Yu, no matter what, he will give birth to the child, he hurried out to stop the midwife, and begged for everything before finally inviting the midwife back.
Considering that his wife had just given birth to a child and was weak, he suddenly saw that he had given birth to such a "monster", which was difficult to accept, so he never let his wife see the child.
But on the other hand, the day the child was born spread all over the streets
"Did you hear that?" The old Yu family gave birth to a freak! I heard that it is full of hair! Quasi is a disaster star! ”
After all, paper can't contain the fire, rather than letting his wife know about the "freaks" from other people, it is better to have a showdown with his wife directly.
What Lao Yu did not expect was that although his wife was surprised when she saw the "hair child", she did not have the intention of giving it up, after all, her own flesh and blood were definitely not willing to throw it away.
From the first sight of the "hair child", the mother's heart has a worry, how can this child please his wife when he grows up?
To the surprise of the whole family, this hair actually brought the child an unusual life experience, and all this is due to Xiao Zhang, a college student in the village.
In that era, college students were very rare and knowledgeable, xiao Zhang heard the story of "hairy children" after returning home from vacation, and he felt incredible after seeing real people, and he told his college teacher about this situation for the first time.
This university teacher was very knowledgeable and very interested in "hairy children" and gave the children a resounding name
"ZhenHuan" means to shake the world.
Yu Zhenhuan's matter was passed on to the ears of experts of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which is the first case in China, so a special expert group was set up to study Zhenhuan.
After genetic testing, it was found that Yu Zhenhuan belonged to a genetic mutation, which is simply a phenomenon of return to the ancestors, but the appearance is different from ordinary people, and intelligence, development and other aspects will not be affected.
After the China News Film and Television Center learned of this, it specially organized a team to shoot a documentary for Yu Zhenhuan.
The incident also alarmed the then state leader Li Xiannian, who specifically instructed that he should provide due subsidies to special groups.
With the help of the local government, he had a stable job and received a subsidy of 30 yuan per month, which finally got through the difficulties.
The economic pressure was much reduced, but as Yu Zhenhuan grew up, the psychological pressure gradually began to increase.
When he reached the age of school, Yu Zhenhuan did not want to go to school, and he was afraid to see other children, because as long as he stood with others, he was always the most prominent one.
When other children were playing in the river, Yu Zhenhuan could only cast envious glances from a distance, and even in the summer he would wear long clothes and trousers, because he did not want the long hair on his body to be seen by others, and he was afraid of being ridiculed.
Fortunately, Yu Zhenhuan was born in a loving family, and no matter what kind of doubts came from the outside world, his parents always cared for him and never thought of giving up.
In 1984, the 7-year-old Yu Zhenhuan became famous, and he was favored by a film company in Hong Kong, and specially tailored a film for him, "The Adventures of little hairy children to seize the treasure".
After the film was broadcast, it swept throughout Southeast Asia, and Yu Zhenhuan was also named "China's First Hairy Child" and the "Little Prodigy" of the East.
Many people think that Yu Zhenhuan has become a well-known child star, and the road to the future will certainly be wider, but with the disappearance of heat, Yu Zhenhuan's family has once again entered the cold winter period.
Yu Zhenhuan clearly remembers that at that time, the family suddenly became tight, which could be clearly felt from the meals of three meals a day.
Yu Zhenhuan, who was 10 years old at the time, was much more mature than his peers because of special encounters, and he tried to reduce the burden on his family.
It coincided with the person in charge of culture in Liaoning Province to visit Japan and saw the "Little Hairy Child's Treasure Hunting Adventure" that spread overseas, and later after understanding, it was found that this famous little hairy child at home and abroad was a Liaoning native.
After returning to China, the person in charge immediately found the president of the Liaoning Provincial Children's Art Theater for consultation, and put forward the idea of focusing on cultivating "Mao children", and the theater director was also very supportive of this.
When the person in charge of the theater informed Yu Zhenhuan and his family of this good news, his parents were overjoyed, which was a good opportunity for Zhenhuan, who could have a skill after completing his studies and a guarantee for his future life.
But Yu Zhenhuan was a little hesitant, he liked to sing, but he knew what it was and what he was going to do after he went, and he was afraid of facing the audience, so he had the idea of withdrawing in his heart.
In the end, it was his parents' repeated insistence that made Yu Zhenhuan's heart gradually stronger, and it was also his mother who let him know that since he was born extraordinary, he had to pay more hardships and efforts than others.
Yu Zhenhuan entered the Liaoning Children's Art Theater as a contract artist and began to learn dance and guitar, where he also enjoyed generous treatment.
Because of Yu Zhenhuan's family difficulties, some artists entered the theater for several years without housing qualifications, and he was assigned housing as soon as he went to the theater to study.
After staying in the theater for a total of seven years, the heartache of these seven years was only clear in Yu Zhenhuan's heart, fortunately, his efforts were not in vain, and Yu Zhenhuan's thousand-mile horse finally met Bole!
Nirvana is reborn
In 1994, the 17-year-old Yu Zhenhuan officially decided to enter the music scene, and it was at this time that he was favored by Zhao Benshan, and with his help, Yu Zhenhuan seized the opportunity to study under Guan Song of the Liaoning Opera and Dance Theater.
Yu Zhenhuan's parents were worried that he had arrived in Shenyang alone and had no relatives, and his appearance would cause criticism, so they moved to Shenyang with him.
The persistence of his parents also made Yu Zhenhuan realize the fragility of his heart, and he was determined to change himself and make himself strong.
As long as yu Zhenhuan has time, he will take the guitar to the street, all he has to do is throw himself into the crowd, let others watch and talk freely, and only by bravely facing it can he conquer himself.
This method also really worked, and gradually Yu Zhenhuan was no longer afraid of the crowd, he felt that he was no different from others, but because of this long hair, he could attract the attention of others and become the focus of the crowd, which was an advantage.
Unfortunately, "the hemp rope is specially picked and broken, and bad luck only finds a bitter person", and the fate is already tragic enough that Yu Zhenhuan has unfortunately grown a tumor on his nose.
At first, his parents didn't care, even Yu Zhenhuan himself thought it was a pimple, but he didn't expect it to gradually evolve into a sarcoma.
At school, a girl was also scared to cry, and the girl's parents thought that the child had been bullied at school, and with a stomach full of anger, they found Yu Zhenhuan and scolded him with a split face.
That day, Yu Zhenhuan returned home and cried under the covers, and his parents saw that their hearts were full of mixed feelings, but it was the flesh of the couple's heart, how did it become a "monster" in the eyes of others?
Yu Zhenhuan's parents thought that they would cure their son's tumor no matter what, so they cobbled together a sum of money and took him to Beijing, and after three surgeries, the tumor on Yu Zhenhuan's nose was finally removed.
That time was the most helpless time for Yu Zhenhuan, and he had the courage to accept the identity and facts of the "hairy child", but there was a tumor on his nose, and he even had the idea of taking his own life several times.
Fortunately, after treatment, Yu Zhenhuan's tumor was removed, otherwise he might have sunk here, or he might have regained the courage to face life after a long time.
In 2005, Yu Zhenhuan's first solo album was released, and the entire album took the emotional route.
Because Yu Zhenhuan's idea is: these years of experience have made everyone realize that I am a warrior who dares to fight against fate, but I am also a flesh and blood person, and I also have vulnerability, these songs are the best carrier, which can make people understand me more comprehensively.
With yu Zhenhuan reappearing in people's vision, his career gradually improved, and he began to tour the country.
Yu Zhenhuan began to appear frequently in television programs, especially in the new Journey to the West as the image of Akajiri Horse Monkey, which caused heated discussion.
Of course, many of these topics of discussion are also about Yu Zhenhuan's feelings, and people are very curious about whether any girl can accept his appearance.
What people did not expect was that after Yu Zhenhuan's love history was exposed, people found that Yu Zhenhuan not only had a rich love history, but also was more beautiful than the other!
After several setbacks, they eventually became dependents
In fact, as early as when Yu Zhenhuan went to Shenyang to study, he received a love letter from a strange girl, but unfortunately, he was still very ignorant of love at that time, so this relationship was also gone.
Yu Zhenhuan's first real emotional experience was at the age of 20, and it was extremely dramatic to talk about the acquaintance between the two.
At that time, Yu Zhenhuan was walking with a guitar on his back on the way to the bar station, a valuable car suddenly stopped next to him, and a girl smiled at Zhenhuan after the window fell
"Hey, Mao Bao, do you dare to follow me?" ”
This slightly playful and somewhat provocative remark aroused Yu Zhenhuan's interest, and he didn't even think about it before he directly pulled the car door and got into the car.
After talking to Yu Zhenhuan, the two learned that the girl was a rich lady, and because she had seen his performances several times, she felt good about it, and the girl also made a request to associate with him.
Yu Zhenhuan's original idea was inferiority, can he be worthy of a girl as a "hairy child"? Even if this problem is aside, the two people are not right, how should they get along in the future?
The girl knew that Yu Zhenhuan had some concerns in her heart, and after a long time of hard work, she finally let go of the worries in her heart, but just when the two were immersed in sweet love, the girl's father suddenly lit up a "red light".
The girl's father met Yu Zhenhuan alone after learning about the love affair between the two, and he knew in his heart that this level would be very sad, but what he did not expect was that the girl's father said it bluntly when he met
"Say it! How much does it cost to leave my daughter? ”
Yu Zhenhuan was very angry after hearing this, and this sentence was like insulting him, and he replied sincerely:
"Uncle, we are truly in love, and I am not with her for money!"
The girl's father acted very calmly, as if he had become commonplace in this set of statements, and said it unhurriedly
"Whether it's true or not, I won't allow my daughter to be with you, and before long she'll be going to the United States, and you won't see each other again!" ”
After saying this, the girl's father left, leaving Yu Zhenhuan alone in the same place, this relationship was like a dream for him, and it came and went in a hurry.
From this relationship, he also learned a lot, on his own terms, it is not enough for two people to love each other, and it is more difficult to get the consent of each other's parents.
In contrast, the parents of Yu Zhenhuan's second girlfriend were not so resolute, at least leaving him with a choice, but this choice put him in a dilemma.
It was the midsummer of 1999, Yu Zhenhuan and his friends went to the southern rainforest to play, and an urban white-collar worker named Lin Yun attracted his attention during a picnic.
However, due to the defects of his appearance, Yu Zhenhuan could not summon up the courage to take the initiative to talk, and he did not expect that Lin Yun's personality was very outgoing, and he took the initiative to talk to him
"Handsome man, are you a foreigner?" How can you have such a heavy beard? ”
Of course, Yu Zhenhuan heard that Lin Yun was joking, so he replied humorously
"Yes, I'm from northern Europe, hahaha..."
The atmosphere of the whole party was brought up between three words and two words, and a group of people sang and danced together, saying that the song and dance in Zhenhuan could be described as out of the limelight, and it really became the focus of the party.
Lin Yun was completely attracted by this versatile "Hair Child", she took the initiative to invite Yu Zhenhuan to dance together, and as the distance between the two gradually narrowed, the topic gradually increased.
When everyone was having fun, the sky was drizzling, and a group of people began to "escape" from the rainforest in a hurry, and when they left, Lin Yun specially pulled Yu Zhenhuan to sit in the same car with him.
Halfway through the rain suddenly stopped, Lin Yun involuntarily pulled Yu Zhenhuan out of the car and ran back to the rainforest, Yu Zhenhuan saw that her body was full of rain, and carefully took off his coat and draped it on her body.
This sudden move made Lin Yun feel a hint of sweetness, and when she looked up, she saw the long hairs on Yu Zhenhuan's body, but instead of showing panic and disgust, she asked playfully
"Handsome man, why do you have so much hair on your body?" ”
Yu Zhenhuan saw that Lin Yun was so sincere to himself, so he unreservedly told his own life and experience.
Lin Yun knew that Yu Zhenhuan was once famous as "China's first hairy child", looking at the long hair on his face, Lin Yun couldn't help but admire
"How can you look so handsome?" ”
This is the first time Yu Zhenhuan has heard someone other than his parents praise him for being handsome, and most of the praise for himself is to describe his big body, tough guys and so on.
After the two returned to the residence and talked until late at night, Yu Zhenhuan found that he liked this simple girl, and when he saw her laughing, Yu Zhenhuan would laugh involuntarily.
In this way, Yu Zhenhuan and Lin Yun came together smoothly, this time Yu Zhenhuan experienced the happiness of love, the two lived together for two years, Yu Zhenhuan finally plucked up the courage to put forward a request for "marriage".
Lin Yun did not object after hearing this, but said with great joy
"Well, we're going to have a grand wedding, we're going to have a baby, and a family of three is going on a trip!" ”
However, when it comes to getting married, we have to take into account the opinions of our families, Yu Zhenhuan's family is naturally very happy, and Lin Yun's mother has put forward different opinions.
"It's okay to want to marry my daughter, but you have to have hair removal surgery, that's the premise, otherwise I wouldn't have agreed to your marriage!"
This was a problem left by Lin Yun's mother to Yu Zhenhuan, but it stumped Yu Zhenhuan and caused a serious illness.
After experiencing the baptism of this illness, Yu Zhenhuan seemed to have found the answer, and he left a letter for the girl and said goodbye.
The letter reads
: Hair was given to me by God and my parents, it gave me pain, but it also gave me opportunity and strength!
Several times of emotional setbacks in succession made Yu Zhenhuan begin to calm down and think about how to face his emotional life, which was a lonely life for two years.
Until September 8, 2011, two years after the previous relationship, Yu Zhenhuan came to Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital to participate in a blind date.
Unlike most people's blind dates, Yu Zhenhuan went on a blind date with 10 female nurses at one time, and the atmosphere at the scene was also very warm.
Unfortunately, in the end, I was unable to hold hands with these nurses, and I began to be indifferent to the question of feelings.
On June 3, 2019, Yu Zhenhuan suddenly announced on the social platform and posted a photo of a marriage certificate.
Unlike before, this time Yu Zhenhuan marked the woman's information and photos with mosaics, but it can still be seen that Yu Zhenhuan's wife is 13 years younger than him.
After experiencing the previous emotional setbacks, Yu Zhenhuan did not want his other half to be attacked by public opinion again, so he chose to publish the news of his marriage in a low-key manner.
Soon after, Yu Zhenhuan announced the birth of his son and posted a statement
"My son is healthy and normal, he is finally bitter, and God treats me not thinly." ”
Fortunately, Yu Zhenhuan's son did not inherit his "long hair", and he had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looked very handsome, and now Yu Zhenhuan's son is three years old, and the family of three lives a happy life.
Looking back at the bumpy experience of Zhenhuan, birth is the peak, how many people can shock the world at birth? In the more than ten years of wandering, he bravely fought against fate and finally exchanged for today's happy life.
The same is true of emotional life, although Yu Zhenhuan has experienced several failed feelings, but these setbacks did not knock him down, and finally embraced the beauty.
Therefore, no matter what kind of setbacks and misfortunes we experience, the final decision is in our own hands, and we can challenge our fate at any time!
