Preface
In 1989, at the Golden Melody Awards ceremony, Chen Huixian and Anita Mui, the two major Hong Kong singers, were on the same stage, and the "Thousand Nights Dispute" made everyone's hearts beat faster, and Chen Huixian's staff even openly competed for the award backstage, and the scene was embarrassing.
That year, Qianqianque Song made Chen Huixian famous all over the country, that year, Sunset Song sang how difficult the road of life is, although the record sales of Qianqianque Song crushed Sunset Song, but Chen Huixian still missed the Golden Melody Award.
The princess of Hong Kong still lost to the daughter of Hong Kong, after which Chen Huixian held six concerts in Hung Hom, Hong Kong, which were sold out, and then went abroad to study.
Chen Huixian's life can be said to interpret what it means to retreat bravely and smile at the storm.
A princess in the music world, a talented singer
Speaking of Chen Huixian, when she was young, it was the most turbulent era in Hong Kong, but her road as a singer was a smooth road, and Chen Huixian's family conditions were very superior since she was a child.
Unlike most of the artists who grew up in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the early years, Chen Huixian received a good education, and during her school years, Chen Huixian became famous for her singing voice, and when she became an adult, she was signed by professional musicians.
At that time, in order to increase the exposure of artists, Hong Kong often combined two or three new singers to debut, and then decided who to focus on cultivating according to the achievements of these new singers.
At that time, Chen Huixian was bound to Chen Lemin and Li Zhishan, and the three released the record "Girl Magazine" together, and the sales of "Girl Magazine" that year were quite considerable, and even reached platinum sales.
Among the three, Chen Huixian is the most famous, her "Lost Promise" continuously dominated the major song lists in Hong Kong, won the first place in the RTHK Chinese Song Dragon and Tiger List that year, and Chen Huixian also won the Best Newcomer Award in 1984.
In 1986, Chen Huixian, who had just turned 20, became a signed singer of Polygram and received high-level attention and was designated to focus on training.
This year, Chen Huixian officially appeared on the big screen, she joined the movie "Infatuated Me", here, Chen Huixian and Jacky Cheung met, and the two became confidants.
In the eighties and nineties, the Hong Kong entertainment industry was undergoing various great changes, and PolyGram's senior management keenly perceived that the traditional lady image may not be suitable for the current audience's taste, and the rebellious cool girls led by actresses such as Anita Mui are more eye-catching.
So under the company's packaging, Chen Huixian changed from a sweet and obedient girl to a rebellious girl and released the record "Change", but it may be too far from her personal personality.
After the release of "Change", Chen Huixian's popularity did not rise but declined, but fortunately, at this time, Chen Huixian's agent Ou Ding Yuli overrode public opinion and allowed Chen Huixian to restore her previous princess image, which preserved Chen Huixian's future development.
In 1988, Chan Wai-han released the famous trilogy of "Silly Girl", "Autumn Color" and "Graceful Love", which have become eternal classics in the Hong Kong music scene, among which "Silly Girl" and "Where Do We Not Meet in Life" have won various music awards.
It is worth mentioning that the actor in the MV of "Silly Girl" at that time was Aaron Kwok, who was not yet famous, and this record left a precious youth time for Aaron Kwok.
I have to say that since Chen Huixian's debut, almost all of them have been helped by nobles, and she herself has her own nobility, and the partners she cooperated with have almost become popular later.
At this time, Chen Huixian's career was at its peak, and her contract with PolyGram was about to expire.
But Chen Huixian has greater ambitions at this time, she once agreed with her father that she must go to college to complete higher education, at this time she is not young, and it is time to fulfill her promise to her father.
In 1989, Chan began to prepare to say goodbye to the music industry, and she handled the contract with the company, but until then, she still hoped to win a weighty award before she finished her job in Hong Kong.
Coincidentally, at this time, Japanese superstar Kondo Masahiko launched his classic song "Xi Yan けの Song" (Sunset Song), Chen Huixian forgot to hear it, and immediately decided to leave the farewell song of the Hong Kong music scene, and changed this song, but this decision led to a century drama in the Hong Kong music scene.
A thousand years of battle, helpless defeat
Perhaps the beginning of a dispute was destined from the birth of "喜焼けの歌", due to the scarcity of excellent composers in Hong Kong at that time, but Japan on the other side was experiencing the most glorious music era.
So in the 80s and 90s, there was a very special situation, that is, Hong Kong singers often sang songs adapted from Japan or other overseas countries by buying the rights to write songs.
And the first singer of this song, the Japanese star Masahiko Kondo, is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he is the famous Anita Mui's ex-boyfriend, Japan's first scumbag.
As soon as this song came out, Anita Mui, Chen Huixian and Anita Mui, one is a princess in Hong Kong, the other is a daughter in Hong Kong, and Chen Shufen also made difficulties about the copyright of this song.
Yu Qing, she wanted to give this song to her friend Anita Mui, but Yu Li first proposed to buy the copyright on Chen Huixian's side, and in the end, Chen Shufen could only give it in order to take care of the love on both sides.
But at the same time, she also demanded that Chen Huixian's record must be released after Anita Mui, and then, in 1989, a spectacle appeared, and the day after the release of Anita Mui's "Song of the Sunset", Chen Huixian's "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" was released.
Both of these songs have achieved quite extraordinary results in Hong Kong, and the female singers of the year were basically all crushed by Chen Huixian and Anita Mui, but in the mainland, Chen Huixian's "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" has a far better circulation than Anita Mui's "Song of the Sunset".
She is very confident that she can win the Golden Melody Award in 1989, and the record of "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" has sold a total of 380,000 copies, and Chen Huixian has become a well-known singer in the Hong Kong music scene.
However, that year's Golden Melody Awards made a big joke to all fans, whether it was the most popular female singer or the Golden Melody Gold Award, all of them were won by Anita Mui's "Sunset Song".
At that time, Chen Huixian's staff was even dissatisfied with the eccentric behavior of the Golden Melody Awards and rushed directly to the stage theory, and was finally banned from participating in the Golden Melody Awards by TVB for ten years.
And Chen Huixian later recalled that she was very guilty, because Wei Ye (Chen Huiyan's staff) also felt that Chen Huixian should win a worthy award before studying.
But there was no turning back from the bow, and Chen Huixian could only bear this result silently, in August 1989, Chen Huixian held 6 farewell concerts in Hong Kong.
On the stage, Chen Huixian wore a white gauze dress symbolizing marriage, leaving the best side in the hearts of fans forever.
Many years later, Chen Huixian recalled the dispute with Anita Mui again, and she was also very embarrassed, and after she got older, she suddenly fell in love with Anita Mui's "Sunset Song".
After Anita Mui's death in 2003, Chen Huixian adapted "Song of the Sunset" and "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" into a song to pay tribute to her friend Anita Mui.
Looking back, the past is like a dream
When Chen Huixian went to Hong Kong to study abroad, she missed her the most than Hong Kong fans and Polygram, I have to say that Polygram really doted on Chen Huixian.
In 1992, taking advantage of Chen Huixian's college vacation, PolyCrystal went to the country where she went to school and took Chen Huixian back to Hong Kong to create the album "Come Back".
Among them, "Drifting Snow" and "Red Teahouse" are once again famous in Hong Kong, and during this time, Chen Huixian is also very entangled, on the one hand, how can she not be heartbroken when she studies abroad and puts down her career in Hong Kong?
And before studying abroad, she had already formed a concentric relationship with her producer Ou Dingyu, and the two were not only career partners, but also beloved lovers.
After Chen Huixian studied abroad, she and Ou Dingyu could only have a long-distance relationship, and like most long-distance couples, the two got together less and left more and finally broke up.
When it comes to Chen Huixian's relationship history, the most embarrassing thing is her confidant relationship with Jacky Cheung, Chen Huixian and Jacky Cheung met very early, although her real age is younger than Jacky Cheung, but she entered PolyGram earlier than Jacky Cheung.
So, Chen Huixian became Jacky Cheung's little sister, back then, Jacky Cheung had some fame in Hong Kong, young and vigorous, he also began to get up nonsense, and even drank and smoked to protect his throat.
In 1989, Chen Huixian's career was in full swing, but Jacky Cheung went downhill at a young age, and the Hong Kong audience was very optimistic about Jacky Cheung at that time.
Ou Dingyu, as a mutual friend of Jacky Cheung and Chen Huixian, did not want to see Jacky Cheung continue to sink, so he took the lead in asking Chen Huixian to help Jacky Cheung save his reputation on the same stage together.
The two sang "A Pair of Lonely Hearts" on the same stage, this song made Jacky Cheung lose his way, and with the help of his former friends and Polygram's boss, he finally restarted his acting career.
This time, Jacky Cheung was reborn and became today's desperate king, and Chen Huixian and Jacky Cheung are also known as Polygram's golden boys and girls, but although Chen Huixian and Jacky Cheung cherish each other, they have never pierced the last window paper.
The two have been coexisting as confidants, until today, the two are still best friends, experienced the relationship with Ou Dingyu, Chen Huixian and then fell in love with designer Zhang Zhuowen but did not come to the end after all.
epilogue
Now, Chen Huixian has also changed from a little princess in Hong Kong to a queen of Hong Kong music over half a hundred years old, and in the past two years, Chen Huixian has once again appeared in the public eye.
She joined the jury of Hong Kong's "The Voice of the Middle-aged", perhaps this is the most comfortable moment in Chen Huixian's life, without the past disputes, she lives more transparently.
