Introducing dance partner Lai Wenhui
At the end of March 2007, Andy Lau held a months-long concert tour in the mainland and Hong Kong. This high-profile concert finally came to an end at the Hung Hom Coliseum in Hong Kong.
That night, when Andy Lau performed the classic song "Shepherd Flute" affectionately, he held his dance partner's hands tightly and solemnly introduced to the audience with deep affection: "This is my dance partner, Ms. Lai Wenhui."
In this way, Lai Wenhui, a name that has never been met, instantly spread among Andy Lau's many fans and became a hot topic on the Internet. For Lai Wenhui, who has always been low-key, she never imagined that she would be pushed to the center of the spotlight like this.
As a dancer, Lai Wenhui has always stood behind the stars and silently completed every wonderful performance. She never wanted to steal the camera and distract the audience.
But at this moment, Andy Lau took the initiative to pull her to the front of the stage and introduce her to the audience.
When Lai Wenhui realized that she had become the center of attention, her heart was full of mixed feelings, joy, nervousness, uneasiness, and excitement surged, making her almost lose the ability to think for a while.
And when she came back to her senses, she found that she was covering her mouth with both hands, and tears of excitement even flowed from the corners of her eyes.
In the face of cheers and applause from the audience, Lai Wenhui couldn't help but wave her hand to the audience, revealing a shy but sweet smile. Many fans recognize her, this dance partner who had a wonderful cooperation with Andy Lau at a concert many years ago.
After the concert, many media and fans raised speculations and questions about the relationship between Lai Wenhui and Andy Lau. Some people say that they are a low-key couple, some people say that they have been close friends for many years, and some even say that Lai Wenhui is actually Andy Lau's underground lover.
All kinds of speculation made Lai Wenhui feel at a loss, she is a low-key and introverted person, and she never likes to be the focus of everyone's attention and conversation. But fortunately, the public's attention quickly shifted to Andy Lau and Zhu Liqian's marriage, and Lai Wenhui was temporarily left behind.
The process of getting along and the two getting along
Dating back to the 80s of the last century, Lai Wenhui was born in an ordinary family. Like her peers, in her childhood memories, the most fascinating thing for her was the popular idol Andy Lau.
Every time she sees his heroic figure on the screen, Xiao Lai Wenhui will stare at it obsessively, and secretly admire it in her heart.
After going to college, Lai Wenhui's infatuation became stronger and stronger. She begged her parents to buy her those dazzling Andy Lau celebrity stickers, and then subtly pasted them on her beloved notebook, on the youthful bedroom wall, and on the edge of the table that held dreams and hopes for the future.
In addition to attending classes, Lai Wenhui devotes almost all of her spare time to the world of dance. Her parents did not object to this, and did not expect their daughter to make a living from it.
Lai Wenhui has a reserved personality, but when she steps on stage in a dance costume, she puts her heart and soul into every movement. Her dance team has worked closely with many celebrities, so Lai Wenhui has had many opportunities to rehearse with her idol Andy Lau many times.
An unexpected opportunity allowed Lai Wenhui to replace Andy Lau's resident dance partner, and for the first time to get close to him and perform together. Although she was very excited, Lai Wenhui dutifully completed the performance and achieved a complete success.
After the performance, Andy Lau took the initiative to ask Lai Wenhui if he was interested in joining his dance team. After being excited, Lai Wenhui could only nod her head.
Since then, Lai Wenhui has begun to accompany Andy Lau day and night, and in the long-term process of getting along, she has a deeper understanding and appreciation of this idol. Whether it is dancing or filming, Andy Lau treats every performance very seriously and responsibly, and never misses any detail.
In his spare time, he often teaches the staff around him to be diligent, hardworking, humble and polite.
What impressed Lai Wenhui the most was that Andy Lau showed great affinity, thoughtfulness and care for every staff member. This kind of humble, studious, diligent and pragmatic character quality made Lai Wenhui's initial fascination with her idol Andy Lau gradually develop into a heartfelt admiration.
Andy Lau's daughter was born
In May 2012, Andy Lau and his wife Zhu Liqian ushered in their long-awaited love crystallization - a lovely daughter. When the celebrity couple announced their daughter's name, the outside world was in an uproar.
They gave this new life a very meaningful name - Liu Xianghui. The word "Xiang Hui" seems to be ordinary, but it immediately boiled on the Internet, triggering countless speculations and discussions.
Some people boldly speculate that when Andy Lau named his daughter, did he expect her to follow Lai Wenhui and become the same outstanding and tenacious talent? After all, Lai Wenhui is Andy Lau's admirable assistant.
Some people also believe that perhaps Andy Lau wants to use his daughter's name to express some hints and expectations to Lai Wenhui, who has been with him for a long time.
All kinds of speculations are rampant, and Lai Wenhui is once again put in the spotlight of everyone. However, as a party, Lai Wenhui has never made any response to this, and she does not seem to care about these unnecessary speculations.
In fact, in the eyes of Zhu Liqian, a shy young woman, Lai Wenhui is an impeccable friend and assistant. She is full of trust in the friendship between her husband and Lai Wenhui, and she never takes the speculation of the outside world seriously.
The reason for sticking to Andy Lau's side
The years have flown by, and in a blink of an eye, Lai Wenhui has reached the age of six. As a frequent guest on the stage, her appearance has long since lost her youthful and beautiful appearance, but her love and dedication to dance have never diminished.
In fact, the reason is very simple, Lai Wenhui once solemnly said: "As long as he still needs me, I will continue to be his dance partner."
This seemingly ordinary sentence expresses the most simple and purest desire in Lai Wenhui's heart. For her, being able to stay with her beloved idol Andy Lau is the greatest satisfaction and happiness in her life.
What's even more admirable is that Lai Wenhui doesn't care about Andy Lau and Zhu Liqian's marriage at all. As a confidant who has been with her for many years, she has long seen through the purity and solidity of the relationship between the two.
Zhu Liqian, a virtuous and generous woman, also regards Lai Wenhui as a confidant and has never regarded her as a rival in love. Sometimes after the rehearsal of Lai Wenhui and others, Zhu Liqian will even cook for them in person, gentle and friendly.
A unique friendship and trust has been established between the three of them.
It is precisely because she has seen all this clearly that Lai Wenhui is so clear about her life path. She is content with the status quo, she does not have much pursuit of marriage, and her sense of achievement in her career is her only pursuit and motivation.
The stage is everything to Lai Wenhui, where she is a peacock dancer, vigorous and chic, and blooms herself. Even as she gets older, she still devotes herself to every rehearsal and performance, and never copes with it sloppily.
It is her dedication and love for the dance career that has allowed her to work by Andy Lau's side for 25 years, and has won the respect of her peers with her silent companionship.
Lai Wenhui's low-key personality and living conditions.
As a well-known figure in the entertainment industry, Lai Wenhui's life has always been low-key and introverted. Although she was exposed through that sensational concert and was well-known to many fans, she never took the initiative to swagger and never responded to gossip.
To this day, the 41-year-old Lai Wenhui is still single and unmarried, she has devoted all her efforts to her long-loved dance career, and she has never commented much on love and marriage, as if there is no pursuit of this aspect in life.
Lai Wenhui lives a simple and simple life. She is just an ordinary dancer, but she has been silently accompanying Andy Lau for 25 years. In the past 25 years, she has never appeared on the screen, nor has she ever created any scandal news for herself.
The outside world has very limited knowledge of her life, and it is only by observing her wonderful performances on stage that I can barely understand some of her backstory. No one thought that a seemingly ordinary dancer would accompany a person for 25 years without hesitation.
In the past 25 years, countless interesting little things must have happened, but Lai Wenhui buried them all deep in her heart and never exaggerated them too much in front of outsiders. She just lives quietly in the moment and does what she does best and loves the most.
Lai Wenhui never answered the gossip, and turned a blind eye to the peeps of the outside world. She lived quietly like this, and used silence to explain what it means to abide by her duty and drill to the end.
Lai Wenhui and Andy Lau have a story to tell.
From a 16-year-old ignorant girl to a 41-year-old mature woman, Lai Wenhui and Andy Lau have been together for 25 years. In the past 25 years, there must have been many interesting little stories.
All these good or regretful moments, Lai Wenhui is like a mysterious seed, burying them tightly in the depths of her heart and never mentioning them. She never publicizes the unique friendship between herself and her idol, nor does she pretentiously exaggerate this companionship.
She just lives quietly in the moment, doing what she is best at and what she loves best, and occasionally showing the best side for the audience on stage. When asked why she stuck to her left and right, she always said calmly: "I am, I am here."
