On the afternoon of the 13th, the Shi Guangnan Grand Theater, the sixth young singer competition in the South Bank District is awarding awards. When announcing the winner of the first prize in the popular group, Zeng Jing, who was sitting in the audience, slightly wet his eyes. Her name was pronounced aloud, the audience applauded, and she smiled modestly. Once again, she proved herself with strength, and she lamented to the upstream reporter, "If you have a dream, you have to chase it, don't be afraid of being too late." ”
A grassroots singer who debuted at the age of 31
In the local music industry, Zeng Jing is famous for her affectionate interpretation of love songs, her style is similar to Huang Qishan, and Huang Mama is a fellow of Chongqing and her idol. In fact, the new South Bank District Youth Song Contest Popular Group Champion is not young. Born in Shapingba in 1982, she is the mother of two children. At home, he is a good wife and mother, and when he takes the stage, he becomes a "queen" in full swing.
2015 "The Voice of China" Chengdu Top 20, 2016 Chongqing Song King Championship Champion, 2017 CCTV "Avenue of Stars" Chongqing Top 10... Many people have heard Zeng Jing sing, but few people know her story. "Some friends heard that I had never studied singing and said they couldn't believe it, but I was really an amateur singer." Zeng Jing said with a smile.
Majoring in pharmacy at university, she entered the community after graduation, and before resigning in 2013 to sing, Zeng Jing was already the deputy director of a community in Cave Street, Shapingba District. Her experience seems to have nothing to do with music, but the seeds of her love of singing have been planted as early as infancy.
"Since I was a child, the teacher said that I had a good voice, participated in the music class training of Shuren Primary School, and has always been a member of the class recreation committee, and I have also thought about taking the professional road of entering the music academy, but my parents think that girls are still stable, they rap sing as a hobby can be, and it is a bit unprofessional to specialize in learning." According to the adult's imagination, she followed the rules to go to school, work, get married, and have children.
Life was a joke with her, and Zeng Jing did not expect that one day she would become a single mother. "Divorced, my daughter sentenced me, and I was very confused for a while." At this time, music became a beacon to illuminate her future.
"One day, my cousin suddenly mentioned, she said you are not very good at singing, do you want to run and perform with us, more income, but also to enrich your life? I thought about it, I was not very well paid in the community at that time, there was some pressure to take my daughter alone, and I did love to sing, so I went along. Zeng Jing said.
Realistic version of "Music Changes Lives"
Zeng Jing, who has no experience in science classes, is very popular with a "golden voice". After careful consideration, in 2013 she decided to quit her job to sing full-time. "My parents were actually against it, but considering my reality, they supported it." Zeng Jing is still grateful for the understanding of her parents five years ago, "At that time, I was 31 years old, and I could pursue my childhood dreams again, which was a gift of fate!" ”
The gift of fate does not stop there. Zeng Jing's current husband is her hardcore fan. She shared an interesting memory: "I participated in the Shaqu District Song New Town Singer Competition for three consecutive years, the first time I participated, Dabao cheered for me, the second time I participated, I sang on stage with Erbao, Mr. cheered offstage, and the third time, the two babies and Mr. were on the scene. ”
Sweet smile, talking about the husband and the child, at this time Zeng Jing showed gentleness. "It was music that made me find myself again, and I also found the courage and meaning of life, to be honest, I never thought of becoming a singer before, and now, everything is getting better and better." 」
"Zeng Jing, the child's voice is naturally good, the understanding is also very high, the most rare thing is that she has the courage to chase her dreams from scratch, I think it is worth learning from many young people." Yong Qihua, a well-known music artist and executive vice chairman of the Jiulongpo District Ququ Association, said that Zeng Jing had entered her door in 2016, "She does not have much stage experience, but she understands a little, and she is willing to work hard to practice a movement, eye and other details repeatedly, she can win today's championship, but also a point of hard work and a harvest of the truth." ”
For future planning, Zeng Jing said that she hopes to go further in the music world. She is also aware of her shortcomings, "I am almost blank in my knowledge of music theory, so I would like to go to professional training again." "Is it still so serious at the age of 36?" She laughed, "Live to be old, learn to be old, music has given me a new life, I have a lot to learn!" ”
