Zheng Xulan was born in a military family, her father was an old military doctor, and she was encouraged to learn Xi and sing since she was a child. At first, Zheng Xulan was not very interested in singing, and the records and gramophones on the walls of the storage room were very boring to her.
But with her father's repeated encouragement, she still began to practice Xi her voice and singing.
Surprisingly, Zheng Xulan is quite talented in singing, and she will soon be able to control various genres. The father is delighted to find that the daughter, who has been depressed, has finally found a career to devote herself to.
Zheng Xulan also gradually became interested in singing, and was always in a hurry to go home after school to practice Xi new songs. A singing competition was held in the factory, and Zheng Xulan resolutely signed up to participate. She realised it was the perfect opportunity – and if she could show her skills in front of the heavyweight judges, she might be able to step onto a wider stage.
Sure enough, her singing conquered everyone and she easily won the championship. What made her even more excited was that the leader of the top song and dance troupe, one of the judges, sent her an invitation on the spot.
From a little girl learning Xi singing with the encouragement of her father, to being discovered by a top domestic song and dance troupe, Zheng Xulan has reached the peak of her life step by step with her amazing talent.
Her diligent and hard-working spirit is worth learning from every dreamer Xi In 1982, according to the movie "Shaolin Temple" starring Jet Li, a theme song was needed. The producer cooperated with the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, a top song and dance troupe in China, hoping to create a moving interlude.
The Oriental Song and Dance Troupe brought together the elite of the music scene at that time, but in order to ensure a high standard, they still decided to let the strongest Zheng Xulan complete this task.
Zheng Xulan is deeply honored to be able to sing the theme song for such a high-profile movie. She began to prepare seriously, and revised the lyrics several times at the request of the director to ensure that the style of the song and the atmosphere of the film fit.
Finally, "Shepherd's Song" was born. The brisk rhythm and beautiful melody are particularly harmonious with the movie screen. As soon as the movie was released, the theme song immediately became popular across the country, and countless people hummed it.
The success of "Shaolin Temple" also made Zheng Xulan famous in one fell swoop. The following year, she was invited to the stage of China's grandest Spring Festival Gala and sang this touching golden song to hundreds of millions of audiences.
Overnight, Zheng Xulan's popularity reached its peak, and the reputation of "national singer" also increased. It can be said that it is this "Shepherd's Song" that has established her status in the music world and made her a well-deserved queen of the music world.
At a party, Zheng Xulan met a handsome American man, Edward. The two fell in love at first sight, and three months later they stepped into the palace of marriage. Zheng Xulan, a newlywed Yan'er, made a request to Edward to become an American citizen and live in the United States.
At first, Edward was hesitant about this, but in the end he was able to fulfill his wife's wishes.
The moment Zheng Xulan officially became an American citizen, she excitedly swore that she would always be loyal to the United States and fight for the interests of the United States. The remarks immediately caused an uproar in China, with many people questioning her forgetting her roots and choosing to emigrate to another country.
In that era of strong national consciousness, Zheng Xulan's actions were undoubtedly a betrayal and injury to the Chinese people. After coming to the United States, Zheng Xulan began to speak only English and fully integrated into American culture. Even when her husband Edward attacked China, she only listened quietly and did not defend her mother country in the slightest.
This has intensified the condemnation of her in China. The Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, which had always supported her, was also angry about this and demanded that Zheng Xulan's works be banned.
A singer who has contributed to the singing career of his motherland, but at the peak of his life, he chose a foreign country. Zheng Xulan's choice caused great controversy at the time, and her pledge of allegiance to the United States is still fresh in my mind.
However, the next life made Zheng Xulan pay a terrible price. Because she chose to become a naturalized American, Zheng Xulan was completely banned in China. The former fans left her, and the familiar stage closed the door to her. Zheng Xulan thought that she could get through this difficulty with her husband's care, but she didn't expect that Edward's snubbing of her would be tantamount to adding insult to injury.
The rift between the two is getting deeper. Edward was tired of his wife in a foreign country and began to find all sorts of excuses to argue. Zheng Xulan was dazed and saddened by his apparent change in attitude.
Finally, after a heated argument, the two filed for divorce. Zheng Xulan can no longer bear the sour taste of marriage.
After the divorce, Zheng Xulan started her love life again. She meets a gentle and considerate young man, Clark, and the two quickly fall in love and decide to tie the knot.
However, the day before the wedding, Clark died suddenly of cancer, and Zheng Xulan was grief-stricken. Fate struck one blow after another, and she fell into a trough completely.
Today, Zheng Xulan can only perform around the country to make a living, lingering on one inconspicuous small stage after another. The aura and glory of the past have long since dissipated, replaced by long dark nights and boundless loneliness.
Whenever she thinks of the past, Zheng Xulan regrets her decision - if she didn't choose to leave, maybe everything would be different.
Seeing Zheng Xulan's fall from the queen of the music world to today's predicament, we can't help but think deeply about the inspiration behind this story.
First of all, Zheng Xulan's choice to become a naturalized American citizen was a very wrong decision. This not only led to her being completely banned in China, but also caused her to lose her original support system.
A person can never gain the same sense of identity in a foreign country as he does in his hometown. If Zheng Xulan had thought twice at that time, he might not have fallen into the situation he is in today.
Second, it reminds us to always be grateful. If Zheng Xulan had not been discovered and cultivated by the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, he would not have had his later achievements. But she chose to leave her homeland at her peak, which is undoubtedly a betrayal of her homeland and music fans.
After becoming famous, she should be grateful for the support of music fans and give back to society, instead of choosing to immigrate to other countries.
Again, we sincerely hope that Zheng Xulan can get back on the right track. She is still young, but she still has a chance to start anew and resume her career as a singer. We call on the industry to give her a chance to develop again, and we believe that through this lesson, she will become a better person.
Finally, Zheng Xulan's story also gives us the inspiration: artists who become famous must be cautious in their words and deeds, and cannot be carried away by interests; Always give back to the society and don't forget the original intention of becoming famous; Also be grateful, and don't forget the people who helped along the way.
We hope that more artists can learn from this and become a positive force.
The road of life will not be smooth sailing, but as long as you maintain positive energy and gratitude, you will eventually see the dawn of hope. Zheng Xulan's story warns us, but it should inspire us to look up at the stars and move forward bravely when we are confused.
Zheng Xulan's life experience is suffocating, and her experience also shows us the importance of maintaining gratitude and positive energy at all times after becoming famous. No matter how big the storm is, we must keep in mind our original intention and never give up.
Although Zheng Xulan is facing difficulties now, we still sincerely hope that she can start again and regain her musical ideals. Her talent and hard work should not be buried, and there are endless possibilities waiting to be unlocked.
This incident has brought us a lot of reflections, and I believe that after enjoying Zheng Xulan's story, readers will also get a warning from it and turn it into a positive force.
There is only one life, let us live a wonderful life in it.
