The bright star on the stage of the past, Wei Wei, and his melodious singing voice are classics in contemporary times.
Those golden songs such as "Asian Heroes" and "Dedication of Love" have become eternal in the hearts of many people. Do you know, what kind of story is hidden behind this?
Wei Wei, formerly known as Zhang Juxia, gave her an ordinary starting point in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. Later, due to family reasons, she spent her childhood in Liuzhou, Guangxi.
In her family, there is no artistic pedigree, only a father who once fought heroically on the battlefield and an ordinary mother of railroad workers.
But talent always blooms in the most inconspicuous places. Wei Wei showed extraordinary musical talent since childhood, and her musical path began from here.
In 1989, a new star named "Wei Wei" rose at the Spring Festival Gala, bringing "Dedication of Love" that touched countless people. Subsequently, her name and reputation quickly spread throughout the country, becoming a music diva on a par with Mao Amin. However, behind fame and fortune, right and wrong accompany, a shocking rumor has dealt a serious blow to her career and life.
At the trough of life, fate brought Wei Wei a Swedish pianist - Michael. He was like a light that shone into Wei Wei's life. Their romance, like the transnational love in many film and television dramas, is full of romance and difficulty. Despite facing doubts from the outside world and opposition from the family, the two insisted on choosing each other.
But real life is not only sweet, and in the days after marriage, cultural differences and age differences have caused cracks in their marriages. For the sake of family and children, Wei Wei let go of the glory on the stage, but gradually lost himself in life. The emotional strife gradually intensified, making Wei Wei determined to file for divorce, but the matter was not so simple.
After returning to China, Wei Wei's life ushered in another trough. An illness caused her to be seriously challenged both physically and mentally. During this time, it was three mixed-race sons who gave her a strong reason to fight her fate. She struggles with illness, and she is also talking to her past self, looking for her lost, singing self.
Every experience in life is a baptism, and every ups and downs are for the next sublimation. Wei Wei's life, like her singing, has ups and downs, but it is always full of strength and emotion. Let's look forward to her next wonderful stage.
In a terrifying past, Wei Wei was deeply controlled and threatened by her husband Michael. Her passport was secretly hidden, and Michael even hired two armed bodyguards to intimidate her at home in order to get her out of the divorce. Her life was in danger because Michael ordered someone to tamper with the brakes of her vehicle. These terrible experiences, she recounted in an interview on Beijing TV, her eyes flashed not only tears, but also unyielding strength.
When negotiating the divorce, Wei Wei only hoped to obtain custody of his three children and did not pursue any property in the family. But Michael not only refused, but even offered her the strange condition of providing for him.
In order to protect the children and fight for their legitimate rights, Wei Wei hired a lawyer. After lengthy litigation, she finally won temporary custody in 2004. Although Michael's maintenance was not claimed, the custody of the child is still uncertain.
To be on the safe side, she took her three sons to Stockholm. They cannot return to their home country because custody of their children has not yet been fully obtained. Wei Wei was determined to provide the best life for her children, and her mother and aunt also went to Sweden to help her. She returned to the music industry and worked hard for her livelihood. In 2005, after numerous trials, Wei Wei finally won the formal custody of his three children.
During this long process, Wei Wei applied to a local women's and children's organization to provide third-party guardianship for the children. But Michael constantly threatens her, leaving her and her children in fear. But in the end, Wei Wei successfully returned to China with his children.
After returning to China, Wei Wei's father saw his daughter's emaciated appearance, and his heart was mixed. He once blamed his daughter, but seeing that her daughter had suffered a lot of grievances, she still fought for her child, and the blame in his heart became deep understanding and support. Wei Wei established a music studio in Beijing to work for the future of his children. And her parents are silently supporting her behind her back, sharing her worries.
However, the continuous pressure and fatigue seriously threatened Wei Wei's health. During the rehearsal of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala in 2007, she fainted from a heart attack due to overwork. Fortunately, he was treated in time and his life was saved. This accident shocked her family, who hoped that she could find a good partner and share the burden of life for her.
However, no matter how many ups and downs she has experienced, Wei Wei has always been tenacious, and she has never given up for the future of herself and her children.
Wei Wei still has hope for love in the midst of pain. With three sons by her side, who can cross this vague boundary and love her bravely, as if he had accepted the home of four? In 2008, news broke that she had met a foreign man, which caused her father Zhang Yu to be very worried.
When he hurriedly visited Wei Wei, she clarified the facts to her father: it was not a lover, just a friend. Wei Wei soothed again: "I will not walk to the wedding hall with a foreign man. In this way, the father's anxiety was calmed.
However, time flies, and in 2010, Zhang Yu passed away due to health reasons. At the moment of parting, the old man's eyes were full of tears, and he said to Wei Wei: "I really regret that I failed to witness you rebuild your home. You carry too much. Wei Wei wept bitterly, understanding that part of her father's regret was caused by her. Since then, her mother has become her life partner, and with two generations of women and three sons, she has been saddled with increasing responsibilities.
For the sake of his family, Wei Wei never stopped, and his performance continued, but his body was traumatized many times. In 2013, she developed heart disease due to overwork. Fortunately, at critical moments, her family stood by her side, allowing her to defeat death again. Since then, her life has changed to low-key, living in seclusion, concentrating on recuperation, and her once glamorous has temporarily disappeared from the public eye.
During this time, the three sons have shown surprising maturity and thoughtfulness. After graduating from Peking University, the eldest son, Wei Ziming, has been working diligently, living frugally, and sharing the financial pressure for his family. The second son Wei Zirui and the third son Wei Ziyu also worked hard to stand on their own, and the unity between them allowed Wei Wei to let go of some burdens and concentrate on recuperation.
As the years go by, in 2020, the two young people in the family already have partners, and their careers are becoming more and more stable. Wei Wei, as a mother, was finally at ease. Despite many physical trials, at the end of 2021, after a long period of hard work, she defeated the disease that had plagued her for many years.
Wei Wei knew that she had failed to fulfill her father's wish, but she wanted to say to her father, who had died: "Although I am still single, my life is full of meaning. All three of my sons have grown up and are all excellent. You are in heaven and don't worry about us anymore. ”
In the world of marriage, Wei Wei chose the path of not asking for alimony from her ex-husband, which undoubtedly increased the pressure on her life. As a mother of three, the challenges she faces to remarry are undoubtedly multiplied. But not only is she tenacious, but she has also succeeded in shaping three sons who are both talented and filial.
They not only excelled academically, but also supported their mothers. Looking back at Wei Wei and Michael's past, that marriage may not be ideal, and it can even be said to be a little hasty.
But she adjusted her direction in time and resolutely chose to divorce, which gave her a relatively free and peaceful life. Wei Wei's experience is a wake-up call for many: marriage decisions are crucial, and one wrong choice can affect an entire life.
