In the 70s and 80s of the last century, she became popular all over the country with a "Shepherd Song", and twice appeared on the Spring Festival Gala at her peak, and her popularity was comparable to Li Guyi, she was Zheng Xulan. Why did she disappear at the peak of her career? How is the former goddess doing so many years later?
Record the imprint of the times, recall classic moments, and taste the taste of life. In this issue, Ziya Children's Fun Counts Popular Characters, and will take you to reveal the interpretive life of singer Zheng Xulan.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="30" > has loved singing since childhood</h1>
In July 1958, Zheng Xulan was born in a military family in Beijing, and the little girl was held in the palm of her hand by the whole family and grew up, and her life was relatively comfortable. Growing up in a military family, she was not as interested in joining the army and serving the country as her parents expected, but she was extremely fond of singing.
During her school days, she always actively participated in the cultural performances in the class. Seeing that Zheng Xulan loved singing so much, the enlightened mother also sent her young daughter to a professional vocal institution for training for a period of time, which also laid the foundation for her future singing.
With excellent singing talent to lay the foundation, Zheng Xulan at that time did not think that she would go to the entertainment industry to develop, she obeyed the assignment and entered the factory to become an ordinary worker. I thought that life would pass so plainly, and sometimes the turning point was so unprepared.
In 1977, Tianjin held a staff singing competition, and the young Zheng Xulan stood out with her beautiful voice and previously accumulated singing skills, and successfully won the first place in the competition. This outstanding performance successfully attracted the attention of Wang Kun, a singer of the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe.
No coincidence, no book, at that time, Ms. Wang Kun was the deputy leader of the song and dance troupe, and she threw an olive branch to Zheng Xulan with love, hoping that she could join the song and dance troupe, and Zheng Xulan's life also turned here.
In this year, Zheng Xulan transformed from a factory girl into a literary and art worker, and was also admitted to the Central Conservatory of Music, which countless people dreamed of. She also did not expect that her childhood dream would suddenly become a reality when she grew up, and she became a singer.
Finally coming into contact with the coveted field of singing, the young Zheng Xulan made up his mind to cherish this opportunity. In the classroom and on the training ground, she eagerly absorbed her professional knowledge and did not miss the slightest opportunity to make progress.
It is her love and efforts to learn music that have attracted the attention of Ms. Guo Shuzhen, a vocal educator in China. This diligent girl was successful in her studies and her vocal singing skills were greatly improved.

For Zheng Xulan, a young member, the song and dance troupe also did its best to cultivate, hoping that she could shine on the stage. So after entering the song and dance troupe, she was not only admitted to the Central Conservatory of Music, but also left her footprints in Thailand, the Philippines and other Southeast Asian countries. The guidance of famous teachers and personal efforts complement each other, and Zheng Xulan's singing ability has made a qualitative leap.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. In 1979, Zheng Xulan toured Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore and other places with the song and dance troupe. At the end of this year, the production team of the documentary "Summer in Harbin" saw her wonderful performance and invited the industry's rising stars to sing the theme song "Sun Island".
The facts proved the precise vision of the production team. This originally unremarkable song has been interpreted by her moving, perfectly presenting the beautiful scenery of Harbin in summer. For a time, not only the song was popular in the north and south of the river, but also attracted countless people to travel to Harbin.
Taking "Sun Island" as a guide, Zheng Xulan's career path is as smooth as opening and hanging. In 1980, this debut work was listed together with Li Guyi's "Sister Finds Brother Tears" and Li Shuangjiang's "Goodbye Mother", and became one of the "Fifteen Excellent Radio Songs" selected by the national audience. The song was a great success and countless invitations flew in like snowflakes for a while.
Zheng Xulan, who became famous overnight, did not swell because of his illusory fame, but settled down. Out of responsibility for fans and respect for the singing career, it was not until 1982 that Zheng Xulan carefully chose the movie "Shaolin Temple" and accepted the singing invitation of his interlude "Shepherd Song".
As soon as "Shaolin Temple" was released that year, it immediately triggered a movie-watching frenzy. At that time, the ticket price was extremely cheap, and a dime could enjoy a wonderful movie feast in the movie, but "Shaolin Temple" could win 160 million yuan at the box office at that time, breaking the box office record at that time. After that, it was exported overseas to win unanimous praise at home and abroad.
Zheng Xulan's melodious singing voice combined with the pure and immaculate image of the shepherd girl Ding Lan captured the hearts of countless audiences in an instant. With this popular "Shepherd Girl", she was just 25 years old when she received an invitation to the 1983 Spring Festival Gala. This year, a song "Sun Island" and a song "Shepherd Girl" captured the hearts of countless young boys and girls on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. For a time, even the Spring Festival Gala dress became a model for everyone to imitate.
Even though his career is in the ascendant, Zheng Xulan still studies music down-to-earth, and then successively launches popular songs such as "Hometown of the Sea" and "The Hometown of Gulangyu Island".
So these high-quality songs not only brought her fame and awards, but also made her appear on the Spring Festival Gala in 1986 again. This time, she has many representative works, a song "Butterfly" and a song "Tomorrow", which directly made her a goddess in the hearts of countless people. It is unceremonious to say that according to this development momentum, Zheng Xulan can become a generation of classics sooner or later.
So many years have passed in the same period of Li Guyi has been honored, when Mao Amin, who just entered the music world, has also become a classic in the hearts of countless people, where has Zheng Xulan, who is popular all over the country, gone?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="35" > give up career for love</h1>
It turned out that Zheng Xulan, who had a career in the sky, met a special man, Edward. This American man is a big fan of Zheng Xulan, and he will go to watch Zheng Xulan's every performance, sending flowers and sweet words again and again. The simple Zheng Xulan quickly fell and quickly accepted his pursuit.
In order to have more time to spend with her boyfriend, Zheng Xulan slowly reduced her performance workload. Later, because her boyfriend hoped that she could fade out of her career, she would only be a goddess of one person.
Immersed in sweet love, the Huaichun maiden resolutely decided to leave the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe in spite of retention. When her boyfriend returned to the United States after a business trip, Zheng Xulan also accepted her boyfriend's marriage proposal and gave up her Chinese nationality to follow her boyfriend to the United States to become a full-time housewife.
In this way, the former generation of singers gave up their careers and became an ordinary housewife, and the initial life was ordinary and simple and happy. However, after leaving the stage of love for a long time, the daily routine is to wash dishes and cook various trivial housework, and Zheng Xulan gradually loses his aura. Without a family income, she slowly lost the courage to speak straight. In this way, four years of overseas life consumed all the love of the couple.
In 1994, Zheng Xulan returned to China with his son and wanted to return to the familiar stage. How rapidly the entertainment industry is changing, and it is even more difficult to make a comeback.
Even after constant struggle, she even suffered from enteritis. The roof leaked in the rain overnight, and the doctor in charge of surgery cut off her healthy intestines, but left her sick and bad intestines. Fortunately, this strong woman was not defeated, she still strongly withstood the pressure of life and lived with her son.
Today's Zheng Xulan accompanies her son to grow up, occasionally participates in nostalgic programs, and lives a calm and beautiful life. After experiencing the hardships of life, she still bravely faced life with her tenacious heart. I don't know if I will remember my past glory, will I have a trace of regret?
After watching the fall of a generation of singers, it is lamentable, I don't know what you think? Feel free to leave a message in the comments section.
