On July 5, there was a bad news in the entertainment industry, the famous singer Li Min chose suicide due to depression and committed suicide.
Li Min's second sister Li Silin published a long article on Weibo with grief, giving an explanation to fans who have been paying attention to Li Min, in the article the second sister said that Li Min unfortunately suffered from depression a few years ago, although he fought the disease for a long time, but in the end he failed to overcome the disease, and the condition has become more and more serious in recent days, Li Min chose to end his life at home on July 2, although he was found and sent to the hospital for rescue as soon as possible, but also missed the best treatment time, In the end, Coco left the people who loved her forever on July 5 and passed away at the age of 48.
As soon as this article was issued, netizens expressed their disbelief, after all, Li Min's cheerful and generous smile before his death was deeply imprinted in the audience's mind, and some time ago, watching the video released by Li Min was in good condition, how could he suffer from depression? Why did you suddenly choose suicide?
In fact, all this is traceable, unlike the glamorous Coco on stage, she has experienced too many tribulations in life, and her body and mind have suffered double torture, and Li Min's experience is very distressing.
In 2003, Li Min has already been popular all over the country, at a party with good friends, met a Canadian "Dana" Bruce (Bruce), the first time they met, Bruce was attracted by Li Min's cute character and first-class singing skills, Bruce fell in love with Li Min at first sight, and then Bruce launched a passionate pursuit of Li Min, Bruce is not ordinary rich, he was born in 1959, has long lived in Hong Kong, China, and he had a failed marriage before meeting CocoAfter the divorce, he lived alone with his two daughters, and he was also the CEO of Ren Libiao Brand Co., Ltd., worth 4 billion.
Bruce likes Li Min very much and wants to be with her, but Li Min's family since childhood is incomplete, and the shadow brought to her by her original family makes her dare not enter a relationship, full of fear of married life, and most importantly, there is a gap between her and Bruce, Bruce is a full sixteen years older than her.
In the face of Bruce's pursuit, Li Min did not agree for various reasons, but it was not easy to meet a person he really liked, Bruce did not give up the pursuit of Li Min, he often chatted with Li Min, cared about her and encouraged her, and gradually Li Min felt the man's intentions and was moved by Bruce's sincerity.
By 2004, the two had been in contact for a long time, Li Min tacitly began a formal relationship with Bruce, and in 2011, the two had been together for eight years of love running, at this time, Li Min had developed a deep affection for Bruce and decided that this life was him.
This year, 38-year-old Li Min married 52-year-old Bruce, Bruce also gave Li Min the best, and then the two held a two-day century wedding in Hong Kong, the wedding cost 130 million yuan, the battle was huge, the big stars from all over the world were invited to the scene, it can be called an epic famous scene, this wedding is also known as "the most desired wedding scene for girls", everyone has sent sincere blessings to Li Min, this wedding also let everyone see Bruce's attention to Li Min, At that time, everyone said that Li Min was the best female star to marry in Hong Kong.
When the two first got married, they were like glue, although they were no longer a small couple in love, but they still wanted to stick together all the time, outsiders looked very loving, Bruce also made a promise to Li Min, this life will only be good to Li Min alone, at this time Li Min felt that she was the happiest woman in the world, the center of life shifted from career to family life, for Bruce's two daughters, Li Min also treated them very carefully, treating them as if they were his own, Li Min who has never cooked, For her husband and daughter, she learned to bake cakes and stir-fry, no matter how busy she was at work and how tired she was after work, she would fly on Wednesdays and Thursdays to accompany her husband, just to be able to spend more time with her family.
Li Min is really a very qualified wife, she will prepare surprises for Bruce on various anniversaries, because she feels that there must be a sense of ritual in life, it can be seen that Li Min is managing this relationship very carefully, not only treating the two stepdaughters as their own, as long as the work is not busy, Li Min will accompany Bruce's mother, and will take them out on trips to take care of their lives, Li Min after a period of time after marriage, the time to appear in the public eye is significantly less, outsiders can feel her dedication to this family, Li Min especially cherishes his warm little home, and also wants to have a crystallization of his own love with Bruce.
But Li Min's physical reasons cannot conceive naturally, but she loves Bruce too much and loves this family too much.
Li Min once publicly admitted that in order to be able to have a child with her husband, he did 9 test tubes and hundreds of needles, even if he suffered a lot of torture in the flesh, in the end, Li Min still failed to realize his wishes, without his own flesh and bones, it became a regret in Li Min's heart, and he could only give all his maternal love plots to his two stepdaughters, Li Min himself has a cheerful and kind personality, so he gets along with the two stepdaughters very well, and has always accompanied them to grow up.
In 2016, Li Min revealed that she suffered from acute bronchitis, which is very torturous for ordinary people, not to mention that Li Min's profession is a professional singer, and her voice could not make a sound during that time, which is likely to affect her career as a singer, It's like an athlete who is about to play football, her leg injury can no longer play, her mood is extremely bad, because how much she wants to continue to sing, Li Min's mother has been accompanying her to actively receive treatment, and constantly gives Li Min comfort and encouragement, Li Min didn't want to give up her dream just like that, so she decided to start from scratch.
Like a child practicing pronunciation, Li Min began to learn pronunciation word by word, sentence by sentence to practice tone, through her persistence, eventually she returned to the stage of her dreams, things seem to be developing in a good direction, but since 2019, Li Min's life has undergone earth-shaking changes, according to Hong Kong media reports, Bruce Li Min and his wife, who have always had a good relationship, there are rifts in their married life, and some media have photographed Bruce with young Western women many times, suspected of cheating three times, Not only have they been bumped by the media they never knew, but even Li Min herself and her girlfriends have seen it on the spot!
Li Min's girlfriend immediately stood out for Li Min, angrily accused Bruce of betraying the marriage, completely disrespecting Li Min, for this matter, Bruce was very frank, he admitted his cheating behavior, but he felt that it was not a big deal, but for Li Min, this was a very fatal blow, desperate to marry Bruce in exchange for the end of betrayal, which caused great psychological trauma to Li Min, that is, in the year when Bruce cheated on him, Li Min, who has always been cheerful, suffered from depression, Li Min has always put her family first, and she doesn't want this family to fall apart.
For Bruce's betrayal, she chose to forgive, still living with Bruce and her two stepdaughters, still taking care of them with all her heart in life, trying her best to play the role of a wife and mother, no one understands how bitter Li Min is at this time, but Li Min did not realize that if it does not stop in time, it will be more hurt in exchange, Li Min's tolerance and regression, in exchange for not her husband's change of heart, but a group betrayal.
Li Min has always treated the two stepdaughters as her own daughters, but in this family Li Min is an "outsider" after all, after this incident, the two daughters not only did not face her, but followed Bruce to isolate her, no one wanted to talk to her, but also blamed the mistake on Li Min's body, they accused Li Min, if not for her, their biological mother and Bruce should still be able to live together, the stepdaughter's words made Li Min feel very heartache, she spent every day in pain.
Finally, in October 2022, Li Min finally couldn't stand this kind of life in hell, she moved out of the home where she lived with her husband, returned to her mother's residence alone, and also closed the accounts of her two stepdaughters on social platforms, drawing a line with them. But Li Min was not happy, at that time she closed herself in the room and sought a psychologist many times, the psychological problem was very serious, even with the intervention of a psychologist, the effect was minimal, after getting rid of Bruce, I thought that Li Min would be the sunny and cheerful big girl, but painful things happened to her one after another.
In February 2023, Li Min posted on social platforms, her left leg is congenital defects, when she was 2 years old, her mother found that her left and right legs were different, since that time she was frequently pushed into the operating room for surgery, but so far has not healed, we see coco dancing on stage, and she has been using her right leg to support her body, Li Min posted that she was very painful during that time, washing her face with tears every day, crying and falling asleep at night, feeling that she was living like years, At that time, her dearest mother and sister were not by her side, and some pain and inner words could only be digested silently.
For so many years, every time Li Min does dancing moves on stage, he does not dare to use his left leg, all of them use his right leg as support, this year, is the 30th anniversary of Li Min's debut, in order to thank fans for their company, she prepared a concert tour, either not to do, or to do the best, Li Min since last year, is preparing for this tour, in order to present a better stage effect, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of dance moves, she has been rehearsing desperately since last year, but in February, The old injury to her left leg had recurred, and she was so severe that she could not stand and had to be hospitalized.
Unfortunately, fans can never wait for this tour, on July 2, 2023, Li Min sent a 40-second voice to fans in the fan base of social platforms, she said that she missed everyone very much, everyone should also take care of themselves and live well, some careful netizens found that Li Min choked up several times when speaking, she should be very painful at that time. In fact, no one around Li Min noticed that she had the idea of suicide, and at noon on the day of the incident, she was still accompanying her two sisters and her mother to dinner, but after just two hours, she found that Li Wen fell to the ground.
The family immediately contacted Li Min's two sisters to send her to the hospital, but on the ambulance to the hospital, Li Min fell into a coma, breathing and pulse have no signs of life, after being sent to the hospital, after the rescue of the doctor's team, Li Min recovered weak breathing, but the doctor told Li Min's mother that Li Min was brain dead, but the 86-year-old mother was unwilling to accept the fact that the white-haired person sent the black-haired person, or unwilling to give up the treatment of Li Min, until July 5, Li Min could not hold on and stopped breathing, a generation of diva, and thus fell.
Knowing this, many stars who know Li Min have posted articles, such as Jackie Chan, Stephen Chow, etc., all expressed disbelief, People's Daily and CCTV.com also issued articles to bid farewell to Li Min, Li Min's life has a clear conscience, she loves life, is kind and sincere, and often engages in charity, as she said, she is like a warrior, no matter how many setbacks fate gives her, she can be reborn in nirvana, she persists again and again with a tenacious will, but Li Min is tired, the disease continues to destroy her will, she can't hold on.
There are many stars who left due to depression in the entertainment industry, such as dear brother Leslie Cheung, young Qiao Renliang, etc., have been tortured by depression, Li Min's departure has woken us up again, depression is not only "pretentious", not "idle", this is a common psychological disease, if you can not guide in time, effective treatment, then patients will have a lot of bad ideas, we can not judge from the surface whether a person suffers from depression, Because the patient is even more optimistic than normal people on weekdays, but he just has depression, and once he attacks, he will fall into the endless abyss.
For a singer, the torment of illness and the pressure of public opinion will become the last straw that overwhelms the camel, the pressure and sweat behind Li Min's perfect stage is what we deserve respect and admiration, in front of the stage she always leaves the happy side to us, the sad side to herself, fortunately, she finally got rid of her hated life and went to a beautiful paradise, hoping that Li Min in another world, can continue to be a glowing little sun, we will always miss "Queen Li Min".
