On April 22, according to media reports, well-known singer Ye Liyi accepted a video interview with her friends and generously shared her recent situation.
Since completing the 50th anniversary tour, Ye Liyi has been staying abroad, living with her family and rarely appearing on camera.
She rarely appears, wearing a blue striped top and glasses on her face. She is 72 years old, her hair is still dark and thick, her mental state is also very good, and her smile is very bright.
In fact, Ye Liyi had the misfortune to suffer from cancer, and she had no choice but to go to the hospital for resection surgery and receive treatment. In the past, she had said that the electrotherapy had burned her skin and she could not take a bath for 6 weeks, which was very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, after several years of continuous treatment, she finally succeeded in fighting cancer. Coupled with the support and encouragement of her husband and son, she can also face the scars left after the operation.
After Ye Liyi recovered, her grandson was diagnosed with brain cancer, which made the family sad.
In this interview, Ye Liyi mentioned her grandson's condition. She said that as soon as her grandson was born, she was found to be seriously ill, so that her son and daughter-in-law could concentrate on taking care of her grandson, she was responsible for taking care of her granddaughter and the family's life.
She confessed that I used to feel very depressed, sometimes there was a feeling of powerlessness, but I survived. Today, the 11-year-old grandson still has limited mobility, but the grandson is a happy child and the family is grateful.
As for her 13-year-old granddaughter, she is well-behaved and sensible, she loves to cook and loves to cook for her family. Ye Liyi would teach her granddaughter to sew clothes, and her granddaughter would enjoy it.
In addition to talking about her family life, Ye Liyi also recalled her musical path.
Ye Liyi, who has strong singing strength, has sung countless classic golden songs over the years, the most impressive of which must be the theme song of the same name of "Shanghai Beach".
Referring to the creation of this song, Ye Liyi revealed that TVB only gave 3 weeks to complete the song that year, Gu Jiahui had spent 19 days composing the song, and Huang Xia spent 20 minutes to fill in the lyrics, and then handed it to her to sing.
After she got the song, she found the melody and lyrics catchy, but the first two sentences took her 2 hours. Because she used to sing mainly Western-style music, this song is a traditional Cantonese song, to invest a lot of emotions, it is much easier to cross the first two sentences.
Along with the fire of the TV series, the song "Shanghai Beach" can be described as popular all over the country, and it has also become Ye Liyi's representative work.
Ye Liyi said bluntly, I am really lucky to have this masterpiece. However, she revealed that she could not jump out of the frame of this song, and others wrote songs to her, always similar to "On the Beach".
Ye Liyi stressed that this is not a complaint, and she still sings with a grateful heart until now. Finally, she also praised Andy Lau for singing well.
