Zheng Zhihua in the hearts of everyone is still the teenager who sang "Sailor" and "Stars and Lights" on crutches, and he has passed his 59th birthday unconsciously.
On November 14, Zheng Zhihua's 59th birthday, he shared a family portrait, thanked his wife and daughter for their company, and did not obey the old man, saying that the immortal soul was packed into the body of the 59-year-old.
Time seems to have installed an accelerator, and seeing that disabled inspirational teenager is about to step into the ranks of 60-year-old people.
The wife and daughter are accompanied by each other, looking back on half of their lives, as Zheng Zhihua said, "Although I am lame, the realm I have stepped out of, even if my legs are sound, I cannot cross." ”

He said in the wind and rain, what is this pain? Wipe away your tears, don't be afraid, at least we still have dreams! ”
When "Sailor" was sung all over the country, Zheng Zhihua had trekked on the road to the singer for many years.
When Zheng Zhihua was still in his mother's womb, the family went to an old monk.
"This child is related to the Buddha, and has come to give him the name Zhihua" As soon as the old monk spoke, the mother rejoiced, believing that her son would have some creation in the future.
Unexpectedly, a high fever at the age of two caused Zheng Zhihua to suffer from polio, and the failure to seek medical treatment in time caused his feet to be unable to walk.
After that, little Zheng Zhihua could only sit at the window and watch his peers outside running wildly and playing, secretly hurting himself.
At the age of seven, his family saved enough money for surgery, and after a major operation, Zheng Zhihua could stand on crutches and start practicing walking.
When he could really walk, Zheng Zhihua was 9 years old and older than his classmates when he went to school.

Children with disabilities are always excluded and bullied, at the beginning, Zheng Zhihua still endured, and then he resisted, and slowly no one dared to bully him.
Zheng Zhihua never felt that he was bad, he sold small toys in school, and even made some money.
Young and ignorant, he also began to chase girls, and his first love girlfriend was his classmate Ah Yuan.
When reading civil engineering, Zheng Zhihua met Ah Yuan, because he also loved words and paintings, and the two hearts slowly approached and came together.
The two men are full of hopes for the future, but they are defeated by reality, and the girl's parents are strongly opposed to their daughter marrying a disabled person.
Zheng Zhihua held the mentality of not marrying Ah Yuan and associated with her, and after this blow, he was devastated, and even had no business.
He wrote a suicide note, "Ephemeral Flowers", and sought short-sightedness.
Under the persuasion of relatives and friends, Zheng Zhihua gave up the idea of taking his own life, and later he adapted the suicide note into the song "Don't Cry, The Person I Love The Most" to commemorate that innocent relationship.
Many years later, when Zheng Zhihua heard the contestants singing that song on the stage, he still couldn't help himself and burst into tears.

After graduation, Zheng Zhihua entered an engineering company, which was already his best way out in the eyes of others.
Unexpectedly, after 8 months of work, Zheng Zhihua went through the resignation procedures.
"A disabled person, what kind of climate can he become, and he should not cherish his work!"
Similar ridicule, Zheng Zhihua has experienced too much from childhood to adulthood, and he has been unable to hit him, and he has his own arrangements for the road of life.
At the age of 22, Zheng Zhihua stepped into the unfamiliar advertising industry.
Starting with nothing, he frantically learned professional knowledge and skills, and soon became known as an "advertising ghost", and those who laughed at him finally shut up.
Zheng Zhihua's brilliance is still to come.
In 1987, Zheng Zhihua created the advertising song "To Happy Girl" with Happy Shampoo, which became a hit.
He was caught up in the hands of a record label and invited him to join the music scene.
Starting from scratch again, not surprisingly, his ears were once again filled with sneering.
A colleague bet him that ten years later, Zheng Zhihua would not be able to support himself by singing.
Zheng Zhihua once again proved himself with strength, life is difficult, it is difficult to only lie on his stomach or sit in his childhood.
Before "Sailor", Zheng Zhihua had already released three albums and was a little famous.
In particular, "Fallen Angel" is all the rage, and Zheng Zhihua's talent in music is vividly displayed.
In 1992, when Zheng Zhihua stood on the stage of CCTV on crutches and sang "Sailor" with passion, the audience across the country was touched and excited.
Soon, "Sailor" was played in the streets and alleys, the factory was singing, the teachers in the classroom were also teaching, and Zheng Zhihua was all over the country.
Then, he launched "Stars and Lights", and the inspirational image was more deeply rooted in people's hearts.

When everyone applauded Zheng Zhihua, he quietly turned around again.
In 1999, a year after completing his 12th album, Zheng Zhihua announced his retirement from the music scene.
He changed careers again, opened an IT company, and started a new round of professional learning, bearing the hardships of entrepreneurship.
Zheng Zhihua is an old-school man, and after marrying Zhang Yuya and giving birth to a well-behaved daughter, he became more diligent.
He said that marrying a wife is to let the other party live a good life, and he summed up the "four uses", which can be said to be a model for men.
"Coaxing with his mouth, holding it with his hand, petting it with money, and understanding it with his heart", this is his love for his wife and also the responsibility of a man.
In addition to making money, in addition to accompanying his wife and children, Zheng Zhihua is reading, writing, painting and engraving, no matter what he does, he is excellent.
Zheng Zhihua's paintings opened a painting exhibition, and his words became more and more fascinating, and many people asked for calligraphy and painting.
He openly declined, saying that he did not want to become famous and a family, and that he wrote just for pleasure.
Zheng Zhihua said that he was using his life to heal his childhood.
For the title of "inspirational singer", he also did not like it, he said, "The legs are like this, can it not be inspirational?" ”
He has been proving himself that he is no worse than others, saying: "Although I am lame, I have stepped out of the realm, even if my legs are sound, I can't cross it." ”
In this era, there are countless pop music flowing every day, but there is no sound, so inspirational.
Zheng Zhihua said that the veteran does not die, although he is almost 60 years old, he is still full of vitality and vitality.
