Preface
Have you ever been so moved by a song that it seems that the singer has completely entrusted his heart between the notes?
Teresa Teng's singing voice is just so moving, her voice is like a heavenly sound, echoing in the depths of everyone's memory.
However, behind this gentle singing voice, there is a woman who has been hurt by emotions and struggled to survive.
Her life is like a tragic aria, telling the words of her dedication to love and the challenge of fate.
Today, let's walk into Teresa Teng's world and appreciate her high-pitched, low-pitched swan song of life.
Teresa Teng's musical path
Teresa Teng, who is extremely talented, has shown outstanding artistic talent since she was a child.
When she was 6 years old, she stood on the small campus stage, completely childish, but showed a unique star temperament.
The teachers around her were all impressed by her amazing stage charm.
When she was 8 years old, her mother had the insight to send this natural stage baby to the famous teacher to study art.
Under the influence of Yan Shi, Teresa Teng studied music theory day and night, and gradually laid a solid foundation.
It's a pity that her family is poor and her life is poor, but her passion for music has never diminished.
In a blink of an eye, at the age of 10, Teresa Teng made a splash in the Huangmei Tune Competition and won the crown.
This delicate little girl, with her outstanding stage display and high-pitched voice, made everyone present look sideways.
Since then, she has embarked on a promising musical path.
At the age of 14, in order to devote herself to music, she bravely chose to drop out of school and become a singer full-time.
After entering the universe record, under the guidance of senior musicians, Teresa Teng's singing skills have increased day by day, and her singing path has become farther and farther.
In 1969, she made her screen debut and began her career as a legendary superstar.
In 1971, 18-year-old Teresa Teng went to Southeast Asia and started a year-and-a-half-long trip.
The foreign land and the audience have not stopped her high-pitched and moving voice.
Teresa Teng's music began to go to the world, step by step to the peak.
The first relationship
In her prime, Teresa Teng met her first bosom friend in Singapore - Zhu Jian.
Zhu Jian is handsome and chic, and he is in the position of hotel manager.
The two of them hit it off at first sight, but soon they met and hated each other, and collapsed in the lingering love network.
Zhu Jian is suave and gentle and considerate to Teresa Teng, which makes her sincerely grateful to have such a man who understands her as a companion.
Teresa Teng is full of expectations for this steady love path, and Zhu Jian is also wholeheartedly.
The two are hungry for their future marriage plans, full of longing for a sweet future.
Who knew that fate was ruthless, Zhu Jian died in a plane crash in 1972, which severely shattered all Teresa Teng's hopes for marriage.
When the news came, she was in pain and grief.
The company had to let her take a break from the stage to recuperate, and walk out of this haze of losing her loved one alone at home.
For half a year, Teresa Teng mourned alone at home, and then picked up the song road again and used music to soothe her traumatic heart.
One person who fell in the sky
In this way, after many years, Teresa Teng went to Japan to develop and signed a contract with Polygram Records.
The huge difference in foreign cultures once made her feel out of place and fell into loneliness.
However, her dedication to music has never wavered, and her diligent training day after day has finally been well received.
Just when she was struggling alone, actor Jackie Chan met unexpectedly, and the two parties fell in love at first sight and began a hot love.
It's a pity that the living habits of the two are too different, Jackie Chan loves to be free and loose, while Teresa Teng has an elegant temperament, and her expectations for life are too inconsistent, and the contrast is too great to be sustainable.
Gradually, their relationship ended without a hitch and eventually chose to part ways.
Despite the difficult start of her career, Teresa Teng is still tenacious and moves forward bravely without giving up.
Gradually letting go of Jackie Chan's relationship, she returned to music wholeheartedly, continued to chase her dreams and career, and sang all the way.
Fate is uneventful, but dreams never stop
In 1976, she met Lin Zhenfa, a wealthy businessman, and the two fell in love at first sight and met each other late.
Lin Zhenfa is very fond of him, and he can go anywhere and do anything in order to please his beloved girl.
With him, Teresa Teng felt loved and cherished like never before.
The two slowly fell in love, and Lin Zhenfa even announced to the media in a high-profile manner that Teresa Teng would become the daughter-in-law of the Lin family within three years.
But reality always makes Teresa Teng's dreams come to naught.
Just when the wedding date of the two was approaching and Teresa Teng was elated for the new life she was about to start, a telegram was like a slap in the face - Lin Zhenfa died suddenly of illness.
Faced with another blow in her life, Teresa Teng was in pain and fell into deep despair for a while.
The turning point came from an acquaintance with the wealthy Asian man Guo Kongcheng.
Guo Kongcheng is six years older than Teresa Teng, and he is infatuated with this smash hit diva.
After the two fell in love passionately, the Kwok family held a grand engagement ceremony for the couple in the hotel's luxurious banquet hall.
Everything seemed to be smooth sailing, but fate played a joke again.
The grandmother of the Guo family was extremely cautious about the selection of her daughter-in-law, and she set three conditions for Teresa Teng that were almost impossible to achieve:
The first is to confess everything in the past, the second is to quit the showbiz and become a boudoir woman, and the third is to completely cut off contact with old acquaintances.
For Teresa Teng, who has achieved a little success, this is tantamount to asking her to throw away all her years of hard work and dreams.
She was in great pain and begged the Guo family to allow her to continue posting films, but in exchange for a ruthless refusal.
In order not to let her career go to waste, she resolutely withdrew from this family business.
The fire of her dreams made her give up her good relationship with famous nobles.
The most innocent and persistent feelings are immortal
In 1990, in a chance interview in France, Teresa Teng met photographer Paul and gradually fell in love.
This couple, who have an age gap of up to 22 years, seems to be a surprising match.
Teresa Teng once said in an interview that with Paul, she doesn't have to deliberately maintain any star image, she just needs to live in the moment and be her truest self.
Paul is funny and loves to laugh, rescuing Teresa Teng from the pressure of the world, and also bringing sunshine and joy to her later life.
The two have been sweetly loving and carefree in just five years.
In 1995, the two got engaged to a temple in Thailand, intending to put down roots in this paradise.
Who would have thought that fate would hit them hard after their honeymoon.
On May 8, after the engagement, when Paul went out shopping, Teresa Teng, who stayed in the hotel, suddenly suffered an asthma attack.
When the ambulance arrived, it was too late, and the queen of music finally died of lack of oxygen at the age of 42.
Teresa Teng's death is undoubtedly a great tragedy for music fans across Asia.
For Paul, the pain was incomparable.
He lived in Teresa Teng's residence depressed for a year, often returning to tears, unable to get rid of this huge pain of loss.
Teresa Teng's own brother couldn't bear Paul's decadence, so he personally found him, not only did his best to enlighten and relieve him,
I hope that Paul can get back on his feet, devote himself to life, and pursue his own happiness.
Now, many years later, Paul is married, with a good helper and two lovely children.
Teresa Teng under the camera is still so gentle and atmospheric, as if she has been silently watching in his life.
And this once supreme love affair has finally found its own home in the long river of fate.
epilogue
Teresa Teng's life can be summed up in the word "tragic".
Her colorful fate is like a drama of life, and she is the peerless protagonist of this play.
She shakes people's hearts with her voice, and her singing voice travels through time and space to stay in the world forever;
She used her life to interpret a song of joys and sorrows that resonated with her heart.
Her dedication to love and the pursuit of ideals have made her ruthlessly torn apart by fate, but it has also made her the embodiment of the most innocent and persistent human beings.
Yes, sometimes God is jealous of talent, but the grace is still immortal, and she will live on forever.
The page written by Teresa Teng with her life has given strength and courage to countless dreamers, and will always warm the hearts of countless people who are eager to be loved.
