He was sent to Tsinghua University to study electronic engineering, but he loved literature and became a famous "music poet".
His style of music is elegant, his singing is bright and clean, and his singing contains an infinite sense of story.
He and his wife Meng Xiaobei are childhood sweethearts, and they are both top students who graduated from Tsinghua University.
The relationship between the two has injected a lot of inspiration into Li Jian's creation.
In the 18 years of marriage, Li Jian and Meng Xiaobei have not had children.
This is a tacit understanding between the two people, Li Jian's demeanor is still the same, and Meng Xiaobei is even more like a girl.
Escort Tsinghua and bravely pursue your dreams
The third year of high school is the most intense year for studying.
Everyone is working hard for their favorite target colleges, for fear that they will not be able to get in.
However, Li Jian ended this concern early.
In 1993, Li Jian was in his third year of high school.
In order to add points to the college entrance examination, Li Jian participated in a winter camp held by Tsinghua University.
The event is open to literature and art lovers across the country, and students with the top rankings can get extra points in the college entrance examination.
This winter camp is not something that anyone can participate in if they want to.
Only children who score more than one line on the mock test will have a chance to enter the winter camp.
Li Jian has always been the top student in the class, and he naturally got this opportunity.
In the winter camp, Li Jian moved out of his guitar skills that he had studied for 8 years and sang a song "Say a Word from the Heart".
In the end, Li Jian was sent to Tsinghua University by virtue of his first place in the country.
It was a result that neither he nor his parents expected.
It is really unexpected that Li Jian can stand out in front of so many top students in the country.
However, Li Jian's excellence may be traced back to when he was a child.
Li Jian's father is a Peking Opera martial artist, and he has been learning to sing with his father since he was a child.
When he was 11 years old, Li Jian was inspired by the movie "Roadside Guitar Team" and fell in love with the guitar uncontrollably.
Due to limited financial conditions, his parents were not very supportive of him learning guitar.
But Li Jian has always been a child who says the same, and if he has an ideal in his heart, he must do his best to complete it.
In order to alleviate the financial burden of his parents, Li Jian reduced tuition fees by sweeping the floor of the training class, tuning the strings, etc.
In this way, Li Jian persevered for two months, and his mother saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart.
Eventually, his mother spent two months' salary to buy a guitar for Li Jian.
This guitar can be said to be the beginning of Li Jian's dream, and it is also the weapon that he can protect Tsinghua.
After arriving at Tsinghua University, although Li Jian didn't like his major very much, he did not slack off on his homework.
In addition to completing his coursework, Li Jian spent all his time practicing the guitar.
This also laid the groundwork for Li Jian's resignation in the future to specialize in music.
And at this moment, Li Jian, who was admitted to Tsinghua University, is like an idol in Meng Xiaobei's heart.
Settle for life, quit your job and start a business
Meng Xiaobei met 10-year-old Li Jian for the first time when she was 5 years old.
Father Li couldn't help but sigh when he saw Meng Xiaobei who was held in his mother's arms: "This doll looks like a Russian girl."
It was her father's words that left a deep impression on Li Jian's heart.
Later, Li Jian had another chance to meet Meng Xiaobei at the wedding.
At that time, Meng Xiaobei was in junior high school, and she was already a down-and-out girl.
When Li Jian entered Tsinghua University, Meng Xiaobei's admiration for Li Jian spontaneously arose.
She wrote to Li Jian to ask about his life at Tsinghua and how she could get into Tsinghua University.
Li Jian's replies always encouraged her, and sometimes pointed out her homework.
Later, Meng Xiaobei really became a student of Tsinghua University and studied for a doctorate.
The feelings between them quietly sprouted in one letter after another, and in the end, they naturally walked together.
When Meng Xiaobei was in college, Li Jian had already graduated.
The four years of college life passed in a hurry, and Li Jian entered the State Administration of Radio and Television with excellent results.
He works here as a network engineer with a salary of more than 4,000 per month.
In 2024, there are still a lot of graduates with a salary of 4000.
This salary level is definitely a high income level in 98.
After graduation, finding a good job and living this life in peace and stability is Li Jian's mother's most ardent expectation for him.
Her mother advised her not to think about being a singer all the time, it was not a serious job.
At the beginning, Li Jian only took music as his hobby, and did not want to develop it into a career.
But after two years of work, Li Jian felt more and more that his current job was boring, boring, and had no sense of accomplishment.
Whenever he was confused about his work, he hid in books to find his true self.
At this moment, Lu Gengxu found Li Jian.
The appearance of Lu Gengxu gave Li Jian a shot in the arm that could not be broken.
Form a band and fly solo
Lu Gengxu is a campus singer who has seen Li Jian's music level many times in school before.
I remember when I was a freshman, because I played the guitar well, Li Jian often accompanied some singers.
When life is urgent, he will also go to a western restaurant with Miao Jie to sing and make money.
After making money and coming back, the two often sit together to discuss creative issues.
As they explore, they participate in the school's singing contest and determine how good they are through evaluation.
In the first Tsinghua Campus Singer Competition, the first place trophy was won back by Li Jian.
When he graduated in 1998, Li Jian also held his own graduation concert.
His musical attainments are definitely much better than his professional classes.
Lu Gengxu came this time to invite Li Jian to form a band with him.
In 2000, Li Jian officially resigned and became a musician.
In 2001, he and Lu Gengxu formed a popular music group all over the country - Shuimu Nianhua.
Soon after, they released their first album - "Life with You".
As soon as this song was released, it immediately set off a wave of craze in the music industry.
In less than a year, Shuimu Nianhua won two "Newcomer Award" trophies for this song.
At that time, the two of them were rising stars in the music industry and hot rookies in the music industry.
All kinds of commercial performance activities, program invitations are smashed over, as long as you go up and sing "Life with You", the money will go into your pocket.
At first, the two of them were still enthusiastic about going to commercial performances.
It didn't take long for Li Jian to raise an objection.
He believes that they should not be fooled by temporary interests, and that the most important thing is to concentrate on creation.
As a result, Li Jian showed a different development concept from Lu Gengxu.
They all have their own insistence, and no one is willing to back down.
In the end, Li Jian withdrew from the group and prepared to fly solo.
The combination of Shuimu Nianhua is still there, but the team members have been replaced by Miao Jie and Yao Yong.
After flying solo, Li Jian never mentioned to outsiders that he was the lead singer of the once popular Shuimu Nianhua.
His fame and career plummeted, and no one asked him to sing anymore.
After losing his fame and fortune, Li Jian rented a small house in Beijing and often practiced the piano all night.
After a year of creation, Li Jian released his first solo album.
However, the album didn't make much of a splash.
During the trough of his career, Li Jian received the news that his father was seriously ill.
Rushing back to his father, looking at his father, who was suffering from illness, he couldn't do anything.
After his father died, Li Jian wrote a song for his father.
When he was a guest in "Luyu has an appointment", he hummed softly, and he burst into tears before he finished singing.
This double blow made Li Jian unbearable.
Fortunately, he was accompanied by Meng Xiaobei.
Soul mates, each other
In 2010, Faye Wong took Li Jian's original song "Legend" to the Spring Festival Gala.
After Faye Wong's interpretation, "Legend" became a hit.
As the original creator, Li Jian is finally known to the public again.
However, few people know that the song "Legend" was written by Li Jian to Meng Xiaobei.
When they first met as children, they didn't know that they would become each other's favorites in the future.
When he was idolized by her, he didn't expect that one day she would get a doctorate.
That kind of encounter between people, whether it is in the sky or in front of the eyes, no one can say.
It's just that when he was 10 years old, Li Jian never forgot Meng Xiaobei's face.
Others called her Beibei, and he called her "Little Shell".
In a simple title, you can see Li Jian's full love for Meng Xiaobei.
The song "Violet", Meng Xiaobei also participated in the recording.
It is reported that Meng Xiaobei is a talented woman who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
The relationship between them has always been strong, and after 18 years of marriage, there has never been any scandal.
Li Jian is always obsessed with creation, and he is not interested in the complicated entertainment industry.
Therefore, many people don't even know what Li Jian's wife looks like.
It wasn't until a few days ago that Li Jian exposed a frontal photo of his wife.
On the day of Xiaohan, Wang Mai released a photo of a dinner party with friends, including Li Jian and his wife.
Li Jian and Wang Mai raised their glasses and drank very happily.
On the other side, Meng Xiaobei and Liu Chunfeng also raised their mobile phones to take a few selfies.
He has a round face, a blue sweater, fair skin, and a face full of collagen.
If she hadn't said that she was 44 years old, she would really have thought she was an 18-year-old college student.
After the photo was exposed, netizens praised Li Jian in the comment area for his good fortune and Sister Xiaobei's beauty.
As for why they have been dink and not have children.
Li Jian once gave the answer in an interview.
"My genes are not so good that someone has to inherit them."
In this regard, Meng Xiaobei very much supports Li Jian's views.
At Christmas, Li Jian and Meng Xiaobei traveled to Tokyo together and were met by netizens.
Although they have been married for more than ten years, the relationship between the couple has always been very sweet.
Whether or not they have children does not affect the relationship between them.
epilogue
"The days with you are called time, otherwise it is just a meaningless swing of the clock."
This is what Li Jian once said to Meng Xiaobei.
In the entertainment industry, Li Jian has always been consistent, and all his love has been given to Meng Xiaobei.
Such a talented and dedicated man is an idol worthy of everyone's pursuit.
