In the afterglow of the setting sun, the melodious singing voice floats from afar, like the sound of heaven, touching the heartstrings. It turned out that Yan Weiwen, who we were familiar with, once again brought its melody into the warmth of thousands of households with his beloved masterpiece "Little Poplar", a song full of warmth and tenderness!
The well-tempered song "Little Poplar", with its profound emotional connotation, has won the warm attention and love of fans across the country. In the lyrics, "a little poplar, standing upright next to the outpost, deeply rooted, with a tough trunk, guarding the ...... of the motherland's northern frontier" vividly depicts the image of the tenacious and unyielding little poplar tree with its concise and bright strokes, symbolizing the firm protection of the motherland's frontier.
The huge success of "Little Poplar" made this child from an ordinary working family famous overnight, and opened his brilliant musical path. The subsequent release of several hit songs "Mother" and "One, Two, Three, Four Songs" further consolidated his lofty position in the music scene.
However, just as Yan Weiwen's artistic career was reaching its peak, a sudden "house collapse turmoil" plunged the respected veteran artist into the whirlpool of public opinion.
The frenzy of public opinion surrounded him tightly, and the life path he had paved encountered unprecedented doubts and turmoil.
In 1988, a shocking news hit like a thunderbolt from the sky, completely shattering Yan Weiwen's life - his wife Liu Weixing was diagnosed with breast cancer! Yan Weiwen's heart was like a knife, and tears were like rain.
He just wanted to be able to put down all his work immediately and be by his wife's side wholeheartedly.
However, the strong Liu Weixing insisted that Yan Weiwen participate in a competition to raise money for her post-operative treatment. Despite the pain in his heart, Yan Weiwen still endured his grief and resolutely decided to participate, and finally won the first prize of the competition with his strength.
Since then, Yan Weiwen has been the most considerate husband in the world. He is conscientious every day, taking care of his wife's daily life, arranging his work and rest time strictly according to the doctor's instructions, and ensuring that every detail is perfect.
Doctors have advised patients to maintain an optimistic mindset, which is essential for recovery. Yan Weiwen is full of sincere love and tries his best to keep his wife happy at all times.
Sometimes, he would deliberately make small mistakes that would cause his wife to correct him angrily, which would always make her laugh.
Under Yan Weiwen's meticulous care, Liu Weixing's desire to eat gradually recovered, his mental state also showed rapid improvement, and his whole face was radiant.
Even the attending physician was amazed.
In this way, Yan Weiwen has consistently guarded his wife, and after 30 years of tenacious fight against cancer, his wife finally recovered completely! Yan Weiwen's unswerving dedication has won unanimous praise and praise from all walks of life for his "good husband".
However, good times are always short-lived, and just as his career climbed to the pinnacle of his life, Yan Weiwen once again fell into the whirlpool of doubts of "late season is not guaranteed".
In 2014, when Yan Weiwen's music career reached the pinnacle of glory and fame, one of his decisions sparked widespread controversy in all walks of life: he founded a program called "crash course" to recruit students for paid study.
As soon as this news was disclosed, it immediately aroused strong condemnation inside and outside the industry. Industry insiders questioned Yan Weiwen's course setting, believing that just 3 days is not enough for students to truly master knowledge and skills.
For those consumers who are not in the professional field, they have only one accusation against Yan Weiwen - the tuition fee is too high! The tuition fee of nearly 5,000 yuan for just 3 days of the course is really jaw-dropping.
Yan Weiwen seems to have used his own popularity and influence to adopt an ingenious strategy of "collecting money". Although the fees may seem staggering, he does not impose any coercive measures, and mainly targets the children of wealthy families, for whom the tuition fees are not a heavy burden.
However, this did not quell the dissatisfaction and doubts of the general public against Yan Weiwen. Public opinion was in an uproar, and the topic of "old artists are not guaranteed in the evening" was discussed.
Just when the aftermath of this incident has not yet dissipated, Yan Weiwen has once again become the focus of public opinion. On the same day, he wore a "sky-high" sweatshirt priced at 7,000 yuan for live rehearsals at the National Center for the Performing Arts, which was captured by the camera and uploaded to the Internet, which once again aroused strong condemnation from public opinion.
Some people directly accused Yan Weiwen of "showing off his wealth" and undermining his moral code and professional ethics as an artist of the older generation. Some people even linked this incident to the "sky-high training course" he had previously held, believing that this was a typical example of "old age and not dying" and "late season is not guaranteed".
Faced with the overwhelming impact of public opinion, Yan Weiwen was inevitably unwilling in his heart. He is well aware that the trainees recruited by the training course are originally from those families with privileged backgrounds, and the phrase "circle money" cannot help but make people feel unfair.
As for the sweatshirt worth as much as 7,000 yuan, Yan Weiwen believes that it is just a choice of personal taste and lifestyle. Each person has his own unique social status and economic power, and he is more than capable of affording such a level of consumption.
The public's requirements for celebrities are indeed strict, but is this overkill a bit excessive? Even the great scientist Mr. Yuan Longping was once questioned for "strict self-discipline" because he rode in a limousine.
For these generations of old artists, such pressure of public opinion is undoubtedly a heavy blow.
In fact, this is not the first time that Yan Weiwen has fallen into the whirlpool of public opinion. In the earlier "Zhu Jun case" incident, Yan Weiwen was regarded as a key witness in the investigation because of his deep friendship with Zhu Jun.
Although he repeatedly denied being present at the time, public opinion did not fully accept his testimony, and it was not until many years later that Zhu Jun was able to settle his grievances and Yan Weiwen was able to get rid of this suspicion.
Looking back at Yan Weiwen's upbringing, we can find that he has lived in a rather difficult environment since he was a child. His grandfather used to run a small shop to make ends meet for the family.
And his father, in order to avoid the fate of being forcibly conscripted into the army, did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money to buy a false identity.
It is this family background that made Yan Weiwen labeled as a "descendant of capitalists" in his childhood, which almost ruined his dream of serving the country in the army.
However, Yan Weiwen never gave up his ideals because of this.
At the age of 13, Yan Weiwen firmly devoted himself to the art troupe and came into contact with the wonderful art of music for the first time. His love for music sprouted like a seed in his heart and gradually took root.
Soon after, Yan Weiwen finally got his wish and was admitted to the soldier propaganda team of a certain military region, realizing his long-standing dream of joining the army.
In 1984, Yan Weiwen became famous in one fell swoop, and won the reputation of "King of National Singers" with the affectionate and moving song "Little Poplar" at the Spring Festival Gala that year, and his popularity rose sharply.
In 1985, Yan Weiwen set foot on the battlefield for the first time and went to the front line alone to sing for the brave soldiers.
During that time, the sound of guns and artillery was like rain, and the flames of war burned day and night. On the battlefield, full of devastation, the wounded soldiers used their last strength to call the names of their relatives, this cruel scene of war made Yan Weiwen's heart ache like a knife, every moment, he felt the strong threat of death, and feared that he could sleep forever in the ground at any time.
However, it was precisely this life-and-death battlefield that made Yan Weiwen firm in his determination to pursue a music career and become reborn. He was determined that as long as he was lucky enough to survive, even if he gave his life, he would try his best to realize his sacred musical ideals!
Since then, Yan Weiwen's steps on the road of music have been solid and powerful, step by step. With his outstanding singing talent and unremitting efforts, he eventually developed into a world-renowned singer, who was eagerly loved and respected by the audience.
As a well-known tenor singer in China, for me, I have been obsessed with the ideal of music and art all my life, how can I say that "the evening is not guaranteed"?!
Just opened a vocal tutoring class and put on a sweatshirt, why was it questioned as "circle money" and "showing off wealth"? I did fall into some whirlpools of public opinion, such as the "Zhu Jun case", but in the end, I was cleared.
However, nowadays, public opinion seems to have made up their minds to label my old artist as "immoral". I am deeply confused and helpless about this.
Am I really doing something wrong? If you devote your whole life to the pursuit of musical ideals, are you destined to live a poor life? Are expectations of artists too demanding? We are simply treated as gods, and even the slightest mistake can be infinitely magnified and criticized.
Actually, I'm just hoping to get myself what I deserve, that's all. For today, I sang in the smoke of war and took care of my wife when she was seriously ill.
I'm just an ordinary person, I can make mistakes, and I can also have small mistakes and willfulness. But my dedication and persistence to the music career are deeply rooted in my bones. Of course, public opinion can accuse me, but I implore you not to expose my sincerity, let alone deprive me of my right to pursue my ideals.
The value of a living life is not limited by a single event, we should pay more attention to and always remember the outstanding contributions made by those artists to the development of society and culture! The famous singer Mr. Yan Weiwen has deeply touched the hearts of several generations of listeners with his unique and soulful singing voice, which is undoubtedly an extremely precious artistic treasure.
Although he may have encountered questioning eyes and even some confusing behaviors along the way of life, we must understand that the endless sweat and selfless dedication that he has devoted to the cause of art cannot be erased because of trivial details.
We should look at each artist from an emotional perspective with a broad mind and a deep understanding. Only by using empathy to think deeply can we avoid portraying the artist as an overly flawless image of "God", and thus avoid making too harsh evaluations.
