In August 2023, the Meifeng Theater in the bustling city of Guangzhou is full, and a shocking music feast of popular idol singer Wang Sulong is being staged here. Even though it was nearly midnight, the atmosphere in the theater was still as hot as a burning flame.
In the excitement of the audience, the warm applause and screams that continued to come, the organizer solemnly announced that there will be two extraordinary guests on the stage, bringing everyone unexpected surprises! The stage lights dimmed for a moment, and only a torch-like spotlight poured into the center of the stage, illuminating the long-lost figure.
In an instant, a thunderous exclamation erupted in the crowd, and it was an old man who was over half a hundred years old, but still in good spirits - Mr. Zeng Yi! I saw him fold his hands respectfully, bowed deeply to the audience, and when the applause gradually stopped, with gratitude, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "Dear friends, I am Zeng Yi."
In Zeng Yi's affectionate words, another mysterious guest also quietly appeared on the stage, she is Zeng Yi's closest partner, another soul of the Phoenix Legend - Linghua.
When Linghua's unique and infectious voice echoed on the stage, the audience instantly fell into a frenzy, with applause, cheers, and cheers one after another, enveloping the entire theater in a warm and passionate atmosphere.
Time goes back to a spring March in 2011, Linghua is wearing a white wedding dress, like a fairy descending to earth, elegantly walking towards the end of the red carpet, waiting for her is the lover who is about to spend the rest of her life together - Xu Chaoyang.
When the two exchanged rings and made a vow to stay together for a lifetime, Zeng Yi, as one of Linghua's bridesmaids, had crystal tears in his eyes, and he silently raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, his face was filled with joy that could not be hidden.
Many viewers present witnessed this touching scene and whispered about it, speculating whether there was a deeper emotional entanglement hidden between Zeng Yi and Linghua. However, in fact, they are just a pair of confidants and friends, and they both have sincere blessings and joy for each other's important moments in life.
Back in 2003, it was a time of despair for the nation, and even the sun was obscured by the clouds of the SARS virus. Just when people are in dire need of hope and strength, a song called "On the Moon" is like the dawn of dawn, bringing endless courage and inspiration to everyone.
As soon as the music work was released, it quickly became popular all over the country, and the focus of the record company naturally focused on the singer Linghua, who invited her to develop her career in a unique way.
However, to everyone's surprise, Linghua's best friend Zeng Yi resolutely resisted debuting alone, and insisted that the two must fight side by side, so that this deep friendship can continue to this day.
As early as 20 years ago, in the early 1990s, Linghua, who had just arrived at the city, was confused about how to gain a foothold in this strange city, and Zeng Yi saw that she was penniless and living in difficulty, and did not hesitate to lend her a helping hand and help her through the difficult moments in her life.
Since then, an indestructible revolutionary friendship has been established between them.
For a long time, because there were only a few rap parts in the songs of the Phoenix Legend, Zeng Yi was labeled as a "bastard" and "the originator of fishing", and endured endless doubts and ridicule.
Even the well-known singer Han Hong ridiculed him on the show as "a man who can make money lying down".
However, in recent years, Zeng Yi has successfully given the world a taste of his extraordinary strength with the super popularity of his new works "Mountains and Rivers" and "Under the Sea", which is far from being simply summed up by words such as "chaos".
Looking back on 2013, Zeng Yi affectionately performed Leslie Cheung's classic golden song "Love of the Year" in a variety show, which shocked the audience at that time, showing his excellent singing skills and unlimited talent potential.
To tell the legendary story of the Phoenix Legend, we have to go back to Shenzhen in the 90s of the last century. At that time, Linghua, who had just left the vast grassland, came to this city full of opportunities alone with the dream of becoming a singer.
With nothing, she finally found a job running a hall in a humble cabaret hall. At that time, Zeng Yi was the music director of this song hall. On a quiet night, when Linghua stood on the small stage and sang loudly in her unique grassland voice, Zeng Yi was immediately deeply attracted by her singing.
Zeng Yi was moved by Linghua's natural voice and took the initiative to form a partner with her, so the two co-founded the "Cool Fire" group, which is the prototype of the Phoenix Legend.
Linghua was born in a herdsman family in the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, and her voice is simple and high-pitched; As an experienced musician, Zeng Yi is good at rapping. Although their musical styles are very different, they are surprisingly harmonious, making them a perfect match.
Time flies, and inadvertently forty hours pass quietly at our fingertips. Now, the leading group in the Chinese music scene, Phoenix Legend, has finally returned to Guangzhou, the place where their dream began.
For them, this reunion is not only a baptism of time, but also the beginning of a new musical journey.
