At the CCTV National Day Gala, Yang Qianwei wore a long red dress and a trademark short hair, and sang "National 2021" with Zhou Bichang, Liu Naiqi and Huang Pinyuan. At the age of 47, as soon as she opened her voice, she let people know that this was "The Human CD Miriam Yang", the "first singer Miriam Yang who many people liked and liked for so many years".
Yang Qianwei, who has always been low-key, has been frequently searched for in recent days. Every hot search is related to her classic golden song. The last time was the Mid-Autumn Festival gala, she and Ren Xianqi were in the same frame again after a gap of 17 years - 17 years ago, the two starred in the comedy movie "Flower Good Moon", the first chorus song "Flower Good Moon Full Night" in the film, and later this song became the "must sing" of the Tanabata and Mid-Autumn Festival galas. Now that both of them have entered middle age, after years, singing this song again, many netizens called "Ye Qinghui".
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yang Qianwei and Ren Xianqi sang "Flower Good Full Moon Night" in the same frame after a gap of 17.
The most recent wave is due to participating in the third season of the variety show "Our Song". As the predecessors of the song world, Yang Qianwei and Hu Xia sang "Partial Like You", and Zhou Xingzhe sang "Kiss Everywhere". Before she could speak on the stage, she brought people back to the past years, followed by a familiar voice, a familiar melody, and a wave of memories rushed in. When she sat back in the guest seat, she changed back to her "original form", sometimes blindfolded and silly, sometimes laughing, without scruples.
Miriam Yang is still the same Miriam Yang.
From his debut at the age of 21 to now, a full 26 years have passed. She still sings sad love songs, occasionally acting and going on variety shows. She has never taken the goddess route, and with a piece of loneliness in her heart, she has become a unique Yang Qianwei.
"A kiss kills a person"
In "Our Song", when Yang Qianwei and Zhou Xingzhe sang "Kiss Everywhere", the whole audience was boiling. She didn't expect that this old song would be remembered by so many people and loved by so many people.
In the show, Miriam Yang told the story behind the song: in 2004, she had the opportunity to supervise one of her own albums, and she wanted to change her style, and after thinking about it for a long time, she decided to launch a British-style fast song, so that there was "Kiss Everywhere", which was included in the album "Electric Light Phantom".
On the stage of the third season of "Our Song", Yang Qianwei and Zhou Xingzhe sang "Kiss everywhere".
But at that time, the hottest song on this album was "Small Town Big Thing". Later, this song also became a representative work of Yang Qianwei, but there was no fire.
No one expected that the song would catch fire at the end of 2019. In a short video with the theme of remembering Zhang Guorong, "Kiss Everywhere" appeared in the form of BGM, and then gradually became a BGM regular visitor to major short video APPS, and began to "drill" into the ears of netizens.
At the beginning of 2020, the b station up master "a serious little party" mixed a short video, the clips used in the video are from classic movies such as "Ah Fei Zheng Biography", "Qiannu Ghost", "Hero's True Color", and the background music is "Kiss Everywhere". The lyrics and rhythm of "Kiss Everywhere", with the appearance of Wang Zuxian, Cecilia Cheung, Zhang Min, Zhu Yin and other magnificent goddesses, after appropriate editing and processing, brought people back to the 1990s.
Co-authored a short video edited by "Kiss Everywhere".
The original song inherits the consistent style of Cantonese songs, the lyrics rhyme and the melody is full of rhythm, singing is catchy, simple and magical, easy to make people shake their feet. Therefore, on the short video, the bullet screen brushed together is "hundreds of millions of times again".
In this way, the netizens' brain holes are out of control, and the word "everywhere" can be searched for on the video platform. In order to save the office workers and student party driven crazy by DingTalk, an up master changed "Nails Everywhere" to whitewash "DingTalk". There is also "Kiss Everywhere" of the Star Chaser:
The most soul-washing adaptation of "Kiss everywhere" is the academic circle. Those who are eager to return to school to learn, the high-number version, chemistry version, physics version, and medical student version of "Kiss Everywhere" instantly returns to the classroom:
There are 100 Hamlets in the eyes of 100 people, and 100 versions of Kiss Everywhere in 100 circles.
Even Miriam Yang herself did not expect that a tepid song more than 10 years ago would become popular again. She twice mentioned the content related to "Kiss Everywhere" on Weibo, and also "asked" netizens through Weibo: "I heard that "Kiss Everywhere" has a lot of cover songs, is it true? ”
A year later, Yang Qianwei and Zhou Xingzhe sang "Kiss Everywhere" on the show, singing "One kiss kills a person", setting off a wave of memory killing again.
A lonely girl
Yang Qianwei's body always has a girlish loneliness, whether it is acting or singing, not afraid of wind and rain, and smiling brightly. There is a song list on netease cloud, called "Since falling in love with Yang Qianwei, how have you become", and the one with the most likes is "have the courage to be an ordinary person".
Before entering the entertainment industry, Miriam Yang was a nurse. On her first day as a nurse, she was buried as a recently deceased old man, "I was so scared, but I could only stick to my scalp." Later, I saw more and got used to it. At work, he assists the doctor in doing craniotomy, intubating the patient's urinary catheter, and helping to stop the bleeding. After work, she still eats and sleeps normally. In this way, in the nurse position, she did it for 4 years. After too much life and death, she also had a deep understanding of life and life.
In 1995, TVB Hong Kong held the 14th Rookie Singing Competition – before that, Mui Yanfang, Lü Fang, Du Dewei, Su Yongkang and other singers who were in the Hong Kong music scene all came out of here. Miriam Yang, who loves to sing, decided to change her fate, signed up for the competition, and killed all the way to the final. In the final, she sang a song by Peng Ling's "Waiting too long", and finally won the bronze award. In that competition, the winner was Eason Chan. That year, Miriam Yang was 21 years old.
In 1995, Miriam Yeung and Eason Chan participated in the 14th Rookie Singing Contest held by TVB in Hong Kong.
At the celebration banquet of the competition, the champion Eason Chan was shy, and Yang Qianwei, who was standing on the side, jumped and jumped, shouting and laughing, and her true temperament was fully revealed. At that time, Wireless was looking for an actress who could master comedy like Zheng Xiuwen. Looks durable and not gorgeous, slightly silly, big grin, and yang Qianwei, who is still full of the kindness of a small citizen, is really suitable.
Subsequently, Miriam Yeung and Eason Chan both signed with Huaxing Records, and Zheng Xiuwen was in the same door. The company's star-making road is also similar, so that Yang Qianwei first played the banner of "Little Zheng Xiuwen" to stir up the heat, and then sang love songs, made movies, and enhanced the national popularity. In this way, Yang Qianwei, who is not tall, of average stature and is not very beautiful, began to sing sad love songs and act in funny movies.
At the beginning, newcomer Miriam Yang released a single, and the music scene did not stir up a splash, and the response was flat. In 1996, she released her first album "Wolf Is Coming", and the title song of the same name ranked in the top ten of the four major commercial radio stations in Hong Kong, and finally gained popularity. However, whether it is the appearance or style, it is too similar to Zheng Xiuwen, which is considered to be a copy of others, and has also been counterattacked by Zheng Xiuwen's fans, and the star path is not smooth. On the hardest days, she went to nightclubs to sing, but there was no despair, and "people who have not seen real suffering tend to fall into self-immersion melancholy."

Yang Qianwei is a nurse, like the grassroots draft players today, the voice line is not as "god-level" as Peng Ling and Faye Wong, but it is enough to have a sense of story and fireworks when singing. Because of this, she was favored by The Top Lyricists in Hong Kong, and in 1997 she had her own famous song "Goodbye Er-Chome". This song tells the story of remembering the love of his life that he has lost in the streets of a foreign country, and sending a sad story through the song. She whispered in a faint breath, which made people think a lot. Later, this song won the radio championship of the golden song of that year, and many people remembered the name of Miriam Yang.
Later, in 2000, Yang Qianwei won the Gold Award for Female Singer with "The Girl's Prayer", defeating Faye Wong, Zheng Xiuwen and Chen Huilin. It was also in this year that she cried into tears and said the golden sentence that touched everyone: "I have nothing, only the word 'courage' in my heart." ”
Two years later, she won the Gold Award for the Most Popular Female Singer of Jinge Golden Song – the previous year's winner was Zheng Xiuwen, and has since ascended to the position of Queen of Heaven. Later, she performed a number of popular golden songs, such as "Small Town Big Things", "Kiss Everywhere", "Unfortunately I Am an Aquarius", etc., and won many awards.
At the same time, there is also the acting career. In 2002, she played the silly undercover Fang Lijuan in "New ZaShimei", and played a couple with Wu Yanzu, and the character image with thick lines was frank and cute, which won the love of the audience. Subsequently, a series of popular film and television dramas such as "Born a Couple", "Underground", "A Thousand Cups Not Drunk" were launched, creating a variety of different roles, known as "After a Hundred Changes".
In 2002, Miriam Yang and Wu Yanzu starred in "New Zha Shimei".
In 2011, Miriam Yang met a role tailored to herself: Yu Chunjiao.
In "Zhiming and Chunjiao", Yang Qianwei interpreted the character of the "Hong Kong girl" in the strong and strong to the fullest: the little bird is gentle and gentle, which Is not on Chunjiao's body; for feelings, it is not easy to let go when encountered, and it is frustrated and pretends to be indifferent; when she meets her ex-boyfriend Zhiming in Beijing, she only laughs awkwardly and laughs and says "Hi"; when she receives a text message from Zhiming, her face is calm, but she can't help but smile; When Zhiming wants to leave, she just looks at his back and calmly says: "You don't have to come back, I'm gone", but when she was alone, Choking up tears - such a woman, although flawed, but real and lovely.
Later, Yang Qianwei starred in "Chunjiao and Zhiming" and "Chunjiao Save Zhiming" successively, completing the "Love Trilogy". Chunjiao, who has purple hair, has also become one of the labels of Yang Qianwei.
In 2011, Miriam Yang and Yu Wenle starred in "Zhiming and Chunjiao".
The martyr who chases after love
After stepping into the film world, the label on Yang Qianwei's body is "Newport girl after the millennium": straightforward temperament, and the innocence of a little girl, there is a kind of bravery in her bones, not afraid of the sky, dare to break through anything, and can face anything.
There are many theories about what kind of ethnic group "Hong Kong women" represent, some people say that they are narcissistic, some people say that they worship gold, and some people say that they are strong. In the eyes of Miriam Yang, "Hong Kong women" are material and realistic, and there are some external strengths: "In Hong Kong, parents will tell their daughters from an early age to study hard, make money, and live a quality life." Therefore, in the pursuit of wealth, Hong Kong women have no moral struggle and are more comfortable. In terms of love, their attachment to their boyfriends is not so heavy; their concept of love is not that their boyfriends have a car and a house, but to be offered as a princess, and the attitude of following the feeling is even more than the sense of morality. ”
The temperament of Miriam Yang herself is very similar to the role she plays, simple and cheerful, straightforward and fast-talking, which also brings her the nickname of "Laughing Aunt". The good thing about "laughing aunts," she says, is being happy, decisive, and loyal to her life: "Some people might think I'm crazy, like a rampage tigress." ”
For love, Yang Qianwei has a very self-conceived idea, feeling that "happiness must be fought for by herself", but if the feelings are no longer there, she will also let go, just like the song in "Spirited Girl": The spirited woman is not afraid of death / But with pride / There is no need to heck you like a singer.
Over the years, for her emotional life, Yang Qianwei has never hidden. She once admitted to having an affair with the object of the scandal, Eason Chan, and the other party denied that she also laughed it off. Later, when she met Zheng Zhongji, she "loved to the point of falling into the whirlpool", but she still suffered betrayal with all her heart, and the two were divided and merged. When she was in a bad mood, she ran to find her lyricist friend Huang Weiwen, ordered 8 cups of Long Island iced tea, and sipped to tell her emotional heart. Such a true temperament can interpret the love songs that have been passed down to this day - each song is infused with the true emotions of the lyricist and the singer. In 2002, Miriam Yang and Zheng Zhongji broke up. She took to the stage of the Red Pavilion and sang seven times in a row. At the age of 28, she cried as she sang, crying until she couldn't sing.
In 2009, Yang Qianwei met her husband Ding Zigao, and her life settled down. Later, when her son was born, she gradually faded out of the entertainment circle and lived a simple and plain life. It wasn't until nearly two years ago that she reappeared in the audience's sight.
What would such a lonely and courageous martyr become in an intimate relationship? Not long ago, in the reality show "The Man Who Does Housework", Yang Qianwei and Ding Zigao participated in the recording, and after the show was broadcast, many people said that "through them, they saw the original appearance of love".
In 2021, Miriam Yang and Ding Zigao participated in the variety show "The Man Who Does Housework".
In the show, the two sorted out the packages, and Yang Qianwei pulled out Ding Zigao's toy, which was a full set of children's cards that Zhu Dan described as "my daughter doesn't play", and directly intimidated him: "Are you three years old?" Ding Zigao took out Yang Qianwei's whole box of candy snacks, and looked shocked: "Are you here to gain weight?" Ding Zigao is like a nagging mother: Yang Qianwei fried steak, he would only "point fingers and feet, talk on paper"; Yang Qianwei went out, he chattered and urged.
Although Yang Qianwei spat on Ding Zigao's "annoyance", but the two were separated for a long time, she would miss each other's broken thoughts, "Your broken thoughts are actually very healing." "This is real life, trivial and tacky, but down-to-earth and full of security, and this is exactly what Miriam Yang wants to enter middle age."
Today, hong Kong singers who are contemporaries of Miriam Yeung have withered away with the passage of time, and the fate of those days of diva is also lamentable. Mei Yanfang died of illness, Zheng Xiuwen was involved in a middle-aged marriage crisis and could not extricate herself, Chen Huixian was repeatedly hurt by love and lived alone, Chen Huilin's last hot search was because "she was met by chance, 49 years old is still like a girl"... Only Yang Qianwei is still singing, singing "long years, thin clothes", singing "No one can stand in my way, looking at thousands of horses and thousands of troops are rushing straight".
People often ask: Is Yang Qianwei Yu Chunjiao? Yes and no. Yu Chunjiao told men and women in the world to face love bravely; and Yang Qianwei told people to face life bravely.
