1. What kind of predicament is Li Yugang, who was once prosperous, facing now?
There is no doubt that Li Yugang, who was once as brilliant as a bright star, is no longer as glorious and brilliant as before! Although he still claims to be a "Peking Opera performer", in the industry, in fact, such an identity is not enough for people to truly respect and recognize.
Even the occasional sensation is hard to hide his declining position in the mainstream music market.
Whenever people talk about his name, they will inevitably think of the long-standing grievance of the "Mei Pai protégé". The arrogance and arrogance of the past was like a heavy hammer, ruthlessly smashing his acting career to pieces.
Today's Li Yugang is not only marginalized in the industry, but even the majority of ordinary audiences have lost their enthusiasm for him. In contrast, the light of the artists of the Mei School is more and more dazzling.
Recently, after gaining a certain degree of popularity again, Li Yugang made gloomy remarks in an interview that he "wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the river", which aroused strong disgust from many netizens. As a public figure, he should have inspired the public with a positive attitude, rather than showing such a negative and decadent attitude.
As expected, the storm of public opinion quickly overwhelmed him.
Even if Li Yugang immediately issued a statement apologizing, the sharp and piercing criticism could not easily dissipate. Some comments directly accused his apology of being "hypocritical" and "just creating a topic for the sake of hyping up the new movie".
For a while, Li Yugang's image in the minds of netizens completely collapsed, and it was difficult to recover his former popularity.
2. Where did the grievances and entanglements between Li Yugang and Mei Baojiu come from?
This story goes back many years ago, when Li Yugang was still immature and full of green face. Born into a poor family, he left his hometown at the age of 19 and embarked on a journey to Beijing, a city full of dreams, in search of life.
However, fate played a cruel joke on him.
Due to his lack of skills, Li Yugang ran into walls everywhere in Beijing, and could only rely on loans to get by, living a life of eating and sleeping in the open. Whenever he saw the bustling crowd on the street, his eyes always showed deep helplessness and confusion.
Just when he was feeling hopeless, a job at a video store brought him new hope. Despite the monotony of the job, he gave his all and learned a lot of singing skills from the owner outside of work.
With the passage of time, Li Yugang's unique voice gradually radiated its unique and mysterious charm!
In 2004, when it was full of opportunities and challenges, Li Yugang stepped on the stage for the first time, which symbolized the setting sail of countless dreams. With a burning heart for success, he ventured and presented himself as a woman for the first time, gracefully displaying her feminine dance steps and virtuosity on stage.
However, unexpectedly, this attempt was strongly disgusted and questioned by the audience, and some viewers even angrily smashed the drink bottle in their hands at him, making Li Yugang physically and mentally exhausted, and fell to his knees on the spot, trembling all around.
When most people face such a severe blow, they may choose to back down or give up. However, Li Yugang showed great willpower, he challenged the status quo with a firm determination, worked hard to learn the posture and walking style of women, and humbly consulted professional makeup artists, striving to make himself more natural and appropriate on stage, and avoid abrupt and inconsistent visual effects.
Soon after, in order to further enhance his popularity, Li Yugang boldly incarnated as a young man who loved Peking Opera and took the initiative to approach Mr. Mei Baojiu, who was already over the age of ten at that time.
Touched by his sincerity and enthusiasm, Mr. Mei mistakenly thought that he sincerely loved and was willing to inherit the art of the Mei School, so he enthusiastically answered his doubts and gladly took a photo with him, completely unaware of the young man's true intentions.
