On August 11, the well-known singer Ye Zhentang was interviewed by the Hong Kong media, talking about his experience since entering the industry and his recent situation.
In the recent photo, Ye Zhentang, who rarely appears, wears a green T-shirt with a gray suit and a red baseball cap, and his style is quite mixed.
At the age of 76, his mental state is not bad, but his figure is too emaciated, which makes people a little worried.
In an interview, Ye Zhentang revealed that everyone in the family is thin, and this is not a problem. Over the years, he weighed 130 pounds at the most and currently weighs around 110 pounds.
Ye Zhentang revealed that he suffered from three highs and hereditary diabetes, and the doctor said that he would rather be thin than too fat. As long as you take medicine for a long time, you can control the disease.
He also mentioned that when he was a child, he had a serious illness, lay at home for 2 months, asked a doctor to come every day, and could only drink porridge water. After recovering from his illness, he found that he had problems with his vision, and the doctor examined and found that some of his eye cells had died.
Later, he saw many doctors, but he could not cure it, and his current vision was only 10%.
Ye Zhentang, who has a lot of pain in his body, is optimistic about facing everything around him. He laughed and said that suffering from eye diseases also has many benefits, and when singing on stage, because he can't see the audience, he won't be afraid of the stage and won't be nervous.
Of course, there are also disadvantages, such as when he comes to power, be extra careful, otherwise it is easy to trip. Now very popular teleprompter, he can not use, can only memorize the lyrics of each song.
Ye Zhentang, who debuted nearly half a century ago, has successfully performed many classic songs over the years, including "The Great Wall Never Falls", "Forget Your Heart", "I Am From Chaozhou" and so on.
After many years, revisiting these songs again can still make people's blood boil.
Ye Zhentang said that my most popular song in the mainland is the theme song of "The Great Hero Huo Yuanjia", "The Great Wall Never Falls", which even northerners can sing.
The composer of this song is the late musician Lai Oda, who is also Ye Zhentang's Bole.
Ye Zhentang himself came from the band, often singing English songs in the early days, and after the band disbanded, he began to experiment with personal development.
On a rare occasion, he was called by the record company to audition for a Cantonese song in the recording studio, and the composer of the song was none other than Lai Oda. After hearing his singing voice, Li Xiaotian felt that it was very appropriate, so he began his career singing the theme song of the TV series.
Ye Zhentang said that before cooperating with me, Guan Zhengjie often sang Li Xiaotian's songs, and Li Xiaotian would later use me, because he thought that I was miserable enough, my family was not good, I had no chance to go to college, and it would be better to sing sad love songs. Guan Zhengjie is different, he is a graduate of a prestigious school, or an architect.
Although his family was very poor when he was a child, Ye Zhentang was positive and uplifting, rarely complained, and had today's achievements, which is worth learning.
