It is said that life is like a drama, but this woman is also a drama, every role in life she plays seriously, the song is finally dispersed, and she has no nostalgia. She was as ethereal and beautiful as her singing voice.
——Xiao Yue
Some people say that there are only two female singers who have an ethereal and good voice, one is Faye Wong and the other is Xu Ruyun. Her unique "Yun-style singing voice", ethereal voice, ethereal like the untouchable and untouchable fragrance of flowers in the night, makes people unforgettable when they hear it.
Li Zongsheng once commented that her tender singing voice is "a kind of fire, not a young chick can learn casually." After three relationships, I finally gained my own happiness. Her singing has also witnessed her successes and failures along the way, and witnessed her emotional journey.
01
"Brassica singing voice"
Towards the glory of music
If only the cloud knew
Think of your night slowly staying up
Every thought passed a second
Each shout passed for a second
I just feel like life is burning
- "If the Cloud Knew"
This popular song, I'm afraid most people will sing in KTV.
In 1996, Xu Ruyun won the sales championship of that year with the album "If the Clouds Knew", making her the best-selling female singer of the year, and together with Li Wen and Zhang Huimei, she was called the Three Heavenly Queens.
But in reality, her musical path is not so smooth.
As early as 1995, Xu Ruyun was accidentally discovered by star scouts and recommended to Shanghua Company, and released her first album "Please" under the company's support. But it didn't cause much repercussions, because the record sales were low and the visibility was low, and the company began to snub her. Tv shows rarely invited her, and even the host refused to interview her in person, which made the young Xu Ruyun feel embarrassed and frustrated for the first time.
In order to create a better music album, at the end of the year, Xu Ruyun went to visit Xu Jinglun, a well-known music producer at that time, and with his participation, released his second album "Sea of Tears".
The whole song of "Sea of Tears" is full of the sadness of love and irreparable pain, coupled with her ethereal voice, which firmly grasps the hearts of the listeners, and once published, it causes a sensation, and Xu Ruyun has been a hit since then.
How willing are you to let my love flow to the sea
The feelings of giving can never be recovered
Sad scenes of the past
It's like the tide burying me
Her own singing method is known as the "Yun-style Singing Voice". This girl, who is like the girl next door, began her own glorious musical path.
At the company's celebration party, the reporter asked her who she was most grateful for, and the first person she came up with was Xu Jinglun.
02
Night without stars
I'll give you back the past
I believe everything you say
Well said sweetly
I believe everything you say
Lost cleverness for love
Listen to you and close your eyes
How beautiful this dream is to let it continue
- "Good To Hear"
Xu Ruyun's first relationship, as the song sings, she lost her wisdom for him, believed everything he said, and believed that as long as they loved each other, they would be able to last forever.
Xu Jinglun, a music producer known as "Monster", was born into a musical family and is extremely talented.
In 1995, Xu Ruyun, who had just debuted, visited him and invited him to participate in the production of his new album.
After the formal cooperation, Xu Ruyun found that Xu Jinglun was very different from other music producers, he was taciturn, and he was always alone in the studio. Music for him is simply the whole of life.
Such a conscientious and responsible Xu Jinglun slowly had a different position in Xu Ruyun's heart. In 1997, Xu Ruyun and a large group of people went to sing, and Xu Jinglun was among them. It was in this party that the two received songs to convey affection and finally established a romantic relationship.
But the two did not survive to enter the palace of marriage.
A large part of the reason for this is the difference in the two people's concepts of life. Although Xu Ruyun has become a love song diva, she is actually a little woman who longs for love in her heart, she envies a free life and is tired of the entertainment industry.
But Xu Jinglun was different, even if he promised Xu Ruyun to accompany her to retire. But in fact, he could not put down his work, and more often ignored Xu Ruyun because of his work.
In 2004, the contradiction between the two finally reached the top, the seven-year-long relationship was declared over, and all the sweet words that Xu Ruyun was willing to believe were like a dream.
Waking up from a dream, the world is gray:
If it's all just acting
I want you to watch the drama well
Heartbreak is just me
- "The One-Man Show"
It was not easy to let go of a seven-year relationship, when Xu Ruyun chose to use a trip to save herself, she resolutely gave up her singing career, went abroad to study, and lived a simple life in a strange city.
When she was abroad, she once fell in love with a foreign man, Johnson, but the relationship was quiet and also ended.

Suddenly want to love you
In this crowded crowd
Hum your beloved song
Engulf you to occupy my heart
…
Almost forgot how to breathe
In every moment of rubbing shoulders with you
Now it's you who reminds me
The mind that has been on hold for a long time
- "Suddenly I Want to Love You"
In 2013, Xu Ruyun served as Yang Caini's bridesmaid, and a man walked with her, always with her.
The man is Choi Jae-sung, Heo's boyfriend, a senior executive at SM Korea.
Cui Zhicheng, who is nearly one meter and nine meters tall, stands with Xu Ruyun, who is less than one meter six, but it makes people feel extraordinarily harmonious.
For Xu Ruyun, Cui Zhicheng is not a high-level person, and for Cui Zhicheng, Xu Ruyun is not an artist. They met at the party, like a pair of old friends who had not seen each other for many years, shared common hobbies, common topics, and got along very easily.
In order to meet Xu Ruyun, Choi would take the latest flight to Taipei every Friday to meet her, and then take the latest flight back to Work in South Korea on Sunday.
In 2014, two people who had known each other for less than a year were married in Seoul, South Korea. Xu Ruyun laughed and said that flash marriage was the craziest thing she had ever done in her life.
But what does it matter? Maybe when you meet the right person, love is such a crazy thing.
Xu Ruyun announced in the announced wedding news:
Never really understood what it was like to be "complete love"... It wasn't until I met him that I understood that the shape of love could be so moving and beautiful.
Married life is also sweet and envious of others.
Xu Ruyun said: On my birthday, he asked me what I wanted, and I said that I actually had everything, and I hoped that he could accompany me all day. Then he took me for a drive up the mountain, had coffee, and made food.
This is the mode of getting along between the two of them, without too much deliberateness, hand in hand to go shopping in the market, eat snacks, life is plain and beautiful.
I think this is probably the best look of love.
I have experienced failed love, and I have gone far and wide for love. Now, she came back with a smile, and this woman who gently sang sad love songs and quietly healed her wounds finally had someone who truly loved her and protected her.
As long as you are willing to believe and wait, it will eventually give you what you want.
Love has gone through many tribulations, crossed thousands of rivers and mountains, and quietly arrived at the moment of turning around, like the lyrics she sang:
If love makes people suffer from memories, only to be born with this scene has you.

Singing, reading
The years are quiet
There are no crowds on the street
Mixed feelings
Find peace in an instant
- "Miracle"
Today, Xu Ruyun lives most of her life in South Korea, and her life is plain and happy.
In 2014, she released her new album Miracle, which changed the previous style and gradually became lively with songs.
In 2015, she participated in "The Masked Singer King", and when she opened her mouth, she still surprised everyone present, but it also caused a lot of discussion, and many people could not believe that the woman who sang "Nothing" and "Thirty-Six Plans of Love" was Xu Ruyun, who had sung the most bitter love songs.
In fact, this is the real her, the happiness in life is brought to the singing by her, and a different - but consistent Xu Ruyun.
In addition to singing, she also likes to read books, and she will write out her reading experience and share it with others. She read Schopenhauer's book and wrote:
With his elegant stylistic and linguistic brushstrokes, Schopenhauer expounded his views on life. In this book, you can feel his clear metaphor in its entirety. We live all our lives in this moment, and although our personalities remain the same, our state of mind has undergone certain changes. The "here and now" of different periods is thus contaminated with a different color.
She is a person who lives so really, after so many years of ups and downs, she is still the little girl who wants to live an ordinary life, singing and reading quietly in the flood of life.
Every song she sings, from lingering to today's intellectual and changeable, interprets the changes in her state of mind along the way.
Xu Jinglun did not understand her, but fortunately, the years were beautiful after all, and she finally met a person who understood her, just as she sang in "The Hardest Encounter":
Midnight is timid
A cup of intense coldness
Uncontrollably mysterious splendor
Flood from the bottom of the eye
Because how rare it is me
Because it is more rare and more difficult to meet you
But trust me
The hardest and hardest thing is to meet
I'll leave the past to you
Keep your life to yourself
