Zhang Yimou regretted a decision that left a little girl with 13 years of trouble. In 2008, China hosted a special Olympic Games. Despite the snowstorm and the devastating earthquake in China at that time, China still insisted on hosting the Beijing Olympics. At the opening ceremony, the appearance of a 9-year-old girl, Lin Miaoke, caused a sensation. However, someone later broke the news that Lin Miaoke's singing voice was not sung by herself, but a recording of another girl.
Why did Zhang Yimou choose to do this? Because Lin Miaoke's appearance is more outstanding, and the voice of the other girl is more beautiful. He was in a dilemma, and finally decided to let Lin Miaoke go on stage and play a recording of another girl.
However, this decision has plunged Lin Miaoke into a 13-year whirlpool of public opinion. The girl who was supposed to sing disappeared into the entertainment industry. Lin Miaoke's parents made her a business star, and her every move attracted much attention.
In recent years, the appearance of Lin Miaoke has always caused controversy. In 2017, her image, words and deeds when she took the Nortel admissions exam sparked a lot of discussion. People lamented that she had lost her original vitality and aura.
Zhang Yimou is deeply sorry for his decision. If he could choose again, he would make a different decision and show his true side.
