1. The prologue begins: return to the bright stage in 2018 and pursue the trajectory of life's ups and downs
In 2018, Yang Guang's reappearance on the stage of "Avenue of Stars" aroused strong attention. The familiar bright lights and the enthusiastic applause of the audience poured in like a tide, which made him feel very emotional when he was in this situation.
15 years ago today, it was this show that opened a new chapter in his life and pushed this originally unknown young man to the road to a bright star.
Yang Guang looked around, the spotlights on the stage were still shining, but the light in his heart had long since eclipsed. He recalled that when he stood here, the eyes of the audience were focused on him alone, and the enthusiastic cheers and applause of the audience echoed in his ears for a long time, and the excitement and pride of being watched by all eyes almost drowned him out.
However, who could have predicted that just as his career was climbing to the top, he was originally full of confidence and expectations for the future, but he gradually lost his innocent original intention.
His life is full of legends, and it is truly amazing that he has returned to the starting point. From obscurity to overnight fame to gradual decline, his life's path was full of twists and turns, full of unpredictable dramatic turns.
Yang Guang took a deep breath, and the bits and pieces of these years came to his mind. Time flies, and he has grown from a modest and introverted young man to a middle-aged man with rich experience and vicissitudes.
Life is unpredictable, and no one can predict exactly what will happen next.
Second, his family background and musical talent in his early years began to emerge
In 1979, Yang Guang was born into an ordinary and ordinary family in Harbin, an ice city in northern China. His childhood life was not much different from that of other children of the same age, living a life similar to that of ordinary people.
However, fate played a cruel joke on him.
When he was a few months old, Yang Guang suffered a severe eye tumor – an extremely rare condition that nearly cost him his precious vision permanently. At that time, Yang Guang's whole family was knocked down by this sudden bad news, especially his mother, who fainted on the spot and was grief-stricken.
Fortunately, after timely and effective treatment, Yang Guang was able to save his eyes.
Since then, Yang Guang's grandmother has used her ingenious "education" method to impose extremely strict requirements to forge her grandson's ability to live independently. Whenever he urged him to dress, eat, and walk, the child, although he often wept because of the unbearable pain, and tears poured out like a flood of water, but he seemed to have a deep insight into the deep meaning of the elder.
My grandmother always said to him lovingly: "No matter where you are in the future, one day you will have to face the challenges of life alone." ”
Despite suffering from a disability since childhood, Yang Guang has never given up his passion and pursuit of music. As the years passed, his innate musical talent shone brighter.
Whenever a beautiful tune wafts across the TV screen, he can effortlessly dance to the rhythm, and his understanding of music is particularly outstanding among his peers.
What's even more remarkable is that Yang Guang, who is only three years old, can smoothly hum the entire song after turning off the TV. Witnessing their son's extraordinary talent, Yang Guang's parents were thrilled and decided not to let this bright music star be overshadowed by regret.
They resolutely hired a professional music mentor for Yang Guang and inspired him to bravely pursue the road full of ups and downs in music.
3. Once brilliant, now down
Yang Guang's love and talent for music is truly admirable, and music teachers are amazed. Whether it is profound knowledge of music theory or complex singing skills, he has shown an ability to comprehend things that are different from ordinary people.
What's even more rare is that Yang Guang's unique and high-pitched voice injects a unique charm into his performance.
Under the careful guidance of his mentor and the full support of his family, Yang Guang quickly enrolled in a special school for children with disabilities, and joined the local art troupe for the disabled, and began to pursue his musical dreams.
After leaving their hometown and coming to Beijing, the capital of their dreams, Yang Guang's family fell into a difficult situation. They can barely make ends meet in a damp and dark basement, but Yang Guang's unwavering belief in music has never wavered.
However, the difficulties of reality came one after another, and even made him lose confidence in the future for a while.
When Yang Guangzheng was in endless despair, the dawn of life illuminated the road ahead. In 2007, when the talent show was like a spring thunder across the country, he set sail without hesitation and seized the last opportunity.
Despite all the frustrations and torments, he never gave up easily.
With the unwavering support of his partners, Yang Guang bravely signed up for the hottest talent show "Avenue of Stars" at that time. What is jaw-dropping is that this young man with a disability has overcome all the obstacles and stood out from many contestants and successfully won the overall championship of the show!
Yang Guang poured all the deep emotions into his singing, and deeply touched the hearts of the audience and judges with his unique musical charm, winning himself an unprecedented opportunity in life.
On the stage of the next CCTV Spring Festival Gala, he got a precious 7-minute performance time, interpreting his life story with full enthusiasm, and won warm applause and cheers from the audience.
Since then, Yang Guang's life has gradually taken a turn for the better, and he has made a name for himself at the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games and the 2014 Asian Paralympic Games. For Yang Guang at that time, "Avenue of Stars" was undoubtedly the starting point and turning point of his career, and he was a noble man who changed his fate.
However, just when his career was in full swing and his life was extremely exciting, Yang Guang, who was once full of confidence and longing, gradually lost his original intention. The temptation of fame and fortune grew quietly in his heart.
After becoming famous, Yang Guang began to show his arrogant side, wantonly insulting the staff at the rehearsal site, being unreasonably late many times, and even absenteeism disappeared.
Although Yang Guang was already a well-known star at that time, these bad behaviors eventually planted the seeds for his future misfortunes, which made him gradually decline, and finally had to be abandoned by CCTV, a former nobleman.
Fourth, the hardships and breakthroughs of chasing dreams
With a love for art, Yang Guang embarked on a journey to Beijing, eager to realize his musical dream in this fertile land of art. However, the reality is far harsher than imagined, and the family can barely make ends meet in a dark, damp, cramped basement.
Yang Guang faced a difficult living environment far beyond his imagination, and in the face of such hardships and adversities, he was hesitant and even full of doubts about the future.
However, just as he was on the verge of despair, a faint but bright light of dawn entered his field of vision, lighting up his hope to move forward. In 2007, as various talent shows sprung up across the country, countless young people with dreams finally waited for an excellent stage to show their talents.
Although Yang Guang had experienced countless rejections and setbacks before this, he was not completely crushed by reality because of this. Instead, he made a firm decision to seize this opportunity with the last courage that could change his fate.
With the encouragement and support of like-minded friends, Yang Guang finally mustered up the courage to sign up for the hot talent show "Avenue of Stars" at that time. Unexpectedly, this young man with a disability not only overcame all the obstacles, but also stood out from many contestants and successfully won the overall championship of the show.
Fifth, return to the ordinary life and regain the original intention
After the public opinion turmoil subsided, Yang Guang began to deeply reflect on his mistakes and gradually returned to a low-key life. He and his wife, who have been with him for many years, entered the marriage hall, gave birth to a lively and lovely child together, and lived a warm life in an ordinary family.
On his personal social media, Yang Guang often shares the details of his life with his family, including the interesting stories of his children's growth and the sweet moments with his wife, conveying a quiet and happy life atmosphere to the outside world.
He is no longer as pompous and ostentatious as he used to be, but has chosen a down-to-earth and humble life path.
In 2018, Yang Guang returned to the once glorious stage of "Avenue of Stars", but this time he was a guest on the stage and participated in the special part of the recording show.
When he stepped back into this familiar stage and looked at those familiar lighting sets, his heart was full of emotion.
Once upon a time, it was this stage that opened a new chapter in his life and made him move from obscurity to the road of bright stardom. Now, it may be an important turning point for him to restart his journey and regain his original intention.
Yang Guang took a deep breath and let the past slowly come to mind as the past slowly surfaced.
After countless twists and turns, he finally realized that true music dream, and that incomparable enthusiasm for his career is the source of endless motivation for him to keep moving forward!
Only by regaining the original intention in the depths of his heart can he shine again on the new stage and move towards a new chapter in his life.
