Hong Kong in the 1980s and 1990s was a well-deserved glamorous city, where there are rich stories, metropolis legends, Jin Yong’s rivers and lakes, and the golden generation of Hong Kong stars.
The great wheel of time hurried past, but those legendary people and things are always in mind. And Anita Mui, in the golden age of Hong Kong, was the most brilliant star.
At the age of 24, she won the Golden Horse Award, the Hong Kong Film Awards, and the Best Actress of the Asia Pacific Film Festival. She won the Golden Needle Award, the highest honor in the Hong Kong music scene, at the age of 35. Become the first Hong Kong singer to win a national music award. After
unfortunately passed away, Hong Kong people respectfully called her "Hong Kong's daughter" and regarded it as the end of an era.
Prosperity and wealth, social prestige, career achievements, in just forty years, Mei Gu has all received.
But 40 days before she died, at the last concert in her life, she left a meaningful sentence to the world: "Life is like this. There are many things you anticipate, things you think there are, By the way, the sunset and dusk are beautiful, but they are very short.”
Stepped up on the stage, she lifted her wedding dress and walked up alone until she reached the end, turned around, Waved, gorgeous and lonely. The stage can give her lively glory, but it can't appease her inner loneliness.
The daughter of a sad song of destiny
Director Guan Jinpeng said, "She is lonely in the bustle. How lonely and lonely she really is, maybe she can solve it, or it may be better than we thought. Even more." Anita Mui's loneliness seemed to be doomed at birth.
In the autumn of 1963, Anita Mui was born in a fisherman's house in Mong Kok, Hong Kong. Her father died young and her family was poor.
When she was only 4 years old, she followed the third sister to sell art to support her family. Hong Kong’s small and large dance halls, lounges, streets, and lily gardens have seen the thin silhouettes of the two sisters.
At the age of 11, when her mother founded a song and dance hall, Anita Mui officially became the little singer of the song and dance hall.
At that time, the people of Hong Kong thought that the status of street sellers was low, and the singer Anita Mui was even more socially intolerable.
At home, the stepfather abused and insulted the sisters: "Do you have the ability to be a singer in the future? Come to the temple to pick up guests!"
The mother only treats the two daughters as a money-making machine for the son to study, and will subsidize the family. The heavy responsibility was handed over to the sisters; in the karaoke hall, they were the humblest "daughters of songs", enduring the guests' teasing and teasing; in school, the classmates regarded them as monsters, and they looked at them with blank eyes and ridiculed them.
This tragic childhood experience was once written by Anita Mui in the lyrics of "Song Girl": "I remember a little singer that day, she was very thin, I remember Starting from the high-end area, she played the role to relieve hunger with songs.
The sky is cold, ragged, and hungry. This is Anita Mui’s childhood memories and a nightmare in her life.
TVB Rookie Contest is the stepping stone for Anita Mui to enter the entertainment industry. It was in 1982.
Hong Kong veteran musician Li Xiaotian still remembers when she saw Anita Mui in the audience: "She is not a very beautiful player, but she sings very well, moves very well, and has a very good stage aura. Holding the wheat, the fingers can move. We call body language. Body language. This degree is difficult to grasp. It won’t work after a little bit.”
黎小田 even Boldly predict that "in the next ten years, there will be no one as good as her."
Unsurprisingly, after 3 years of debut, the 22-year-old Anita Mui has boarded the Hung Hom Stadium, sang 15 games and created a newcomer. Singer debutA singing record.
The 28 New Year's Eve concerts at the end of 1987 were only the second time they returned to the Red Hall to sing. Anita Mui has set a record for concerts in Hong Kong and even in Asia, and has also won the reputation of "May 28".
To this day, she is still the record holder for the highest number of concerts among Chinese female singers in the world.
In 2005, she was also rated as one of the 100 Outstanding Actors in the 100 Years of Chinese Film.
However, Mei Lanfang, who was highly sought after before, was cheated and slandered by his family. The scenery on the stage and the messy mess in reality appeared on Mui Yanfang.
"My friends cheated me money, I am not sad, I only blame myself for not knowing people with eyes, but even my family cheated me money, I feel very sad".
It turns out that my elder brother is unemployed, and his mother is addicted to gambling. He can make money with Anita Mui. He just reaches out to Anita Mui for it. If he doesn't give it, he will be accused of ungrateful. Even after the death of Anita Mui, the vampire-like exploitation never ended.
Since 2013, Mui Mui auctioned off Anita Mui's relics in exchange for living expenses, including rookie champion trophies, Golden Statue trophies, and even Mui Yanfang's underwear and underwear. .
She applied to the court many times to take out Anita Mui’s 7100 Hong Kong dollar inheritance.
Mui Yanfang's eldest brother Mei Qiming had returned from the United States to ask for an inheritance. The mother and son raised banners in front of the court and threatened that the truth about Mui Yanfang's death would be announced without paying.
The indifference and selfishness of Mei's family Anita has already known to her heart that she once wrote a suicide note, and Liu Peiji was awarded two properties, part of the inheritance for his nephew and niece to go to school.
and Mei Mu only gets 70,000 yuan a month for living expenses. The purpose is to prevent the property from being squandered by the greedy mother. It is really chilling that blood relatives cannot be trusted yet.
The most painful thing in life is the betrayal and cold-eyed of trusted people. The most tragic thing in life is not getting kind feedback at the age when you need care most.
The desire for love has become a hole in Anita Mui's heart that cannot be filled. Unfortunately, she could not marry love until she died.
The bumpy road of chasing love
"In my life, I am an actor and singer. I have worn wedding dresses many times, but every time it does not belong to me." November 15, 2003, Anita Mui set foot on the Red Hall stage for the last time, she said slowly in a white wedding dress.
At this time, she forgot to glance at the fans, and she grumbled, "I thought I would get married before the age of 28 or 30. I hope to have my own family at the age of 32, and I hope to have my own children. But. Nothing. I’m finally over 40. I have nothing but you.”
Never got the warmth Anita Mui in the family, finally He has been seeking a perfect love all his life, but unfortunately, the seven relationships have never been able to bear fruit.
Mui Yanfang has always had a good relationship with Leslie Cheung and Andy Lau. The former is a kind of brotherhood, and the latter is an ambiguous friendship.
The producer of "Anita Mui" once said: We interviewed many people around Amei, and it is understood that the relationship with Andy Lau is just that she does not want to make it public.
Mui Yanfang and Andy Lau met in the third rookie contest in 1984, when Andy Lau was the emcee and Mei was the guest.
At that moment, Anita Mui found that Andy Lau perfectly fits her standard for the lover of her dream.
The romance spread by the media is not groundless, 1In the show "Happy Tonight: Andy Lau's Selected Dream Lover" in 991, Anita Mui gave Andy Lau 100 points, and when married, he should marry Andy Lau.
She once confessed that in the 91st edition of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", the kiss between Hua Tsai and her beside the jasmine on the balcony was very romantic, as if it were true.
But Anita Mui did not develop further with Andy Lau. In Anita Mui's view, love is always uncertain and always hurts. It is better to feel safe than friendship, so I dare not think about it.
Compared to Andy Lau, Anita Mui and the Japanese pop star Kondo Masahiko have a more vigorous relationship.
During her love, Anita Mui flew to Japan 7 times a year. In the last concert of her life, Anita Mui sang "Song of the Sunset" by Kondo Masahiko. In the last days of her life, Anita Mui also visited Japan secretly to celebrate the birthday of her former lover.
Mei Yanfang loves this man heartbreakingly, but the emotional entanglement between Kondo Masahiko and Nakamori Akina is always cut and chaotic.
Cannot tolerate the lover's betrayal and love, Anita Mui had to choose to let go.
After this unforgettable love affair, Anita Mui fell in love with Lin Guobin like moths into the fire.
Once, the two of them were on their way home, with a car sprinting behind them, and they raised their middle finger towards Lin Guobin. Lin Guobin was about to get off the car to theory. At this time, he But seeing that Mei Lanfang had taken a softball stick out of the car, the other party saw her rattling and jumped into the car and fled.
At that time, Lin An praised Amei: ‘Okay! Really fierce. In Lin Guobin's eyes, Mei Lanfang is a kind-hearted and loyal female middle school hero.
This hearty and generous woman once occupied the most important position in his heart. However, during the relationship between the two people, the whole Hong Kong entertainment circle has been rumored that Anita Mui has supported Lin Guobin.
The infatuated Lin Guobin couldn't bear the pressure of public opinion and chose to separate from Mei Lanfang. When he repented, he had no chance to grow old with the one he loved.
is more well-known to the public as the love between Anita Mui and Zhao Wenzhuo.
Zhao Wenzhuo was still Leslie Cheung’s fitness trainer at that time. Through Leslie Cheung’s introduction, the two met at Zhong Zhentao’s family gathering. They met at first sight and quickly developed a love relationship.
celebrities and amateurs, business women and ordinary office workers, but also across the 9-year-old generation gap, love affair challenges the mainstream of Hong Kong society. The reputation on stage is like a huge love barrier between her and her less famous boyfriends.
The rumors of "eating soft rice and having no intentions" were overwhelming for a while, Zhao Wenzhuo didn't care, but in the end this relationship only lasted for one year, only because of a misunderstanding that no one wanted to explain .
Many years later, Yanfang Mei once said sadly, If time can be turned back, she will definitely explain the misunderstanding that caused the two to break up, and will definitely save their feelings. If you did that back then, now She must be Mrs. Zhao in a wedding dress.
After Mei Yanfang fell ill, Zhao Wenzhuo once said: If it is possible, I really hope I can take this crime instead of Amei.
Mui Yanfang’s funeral, he personally attended and presented a wreath for her. The card read: "The love of this life, all the way to go."
Once the sea was difficult, the couple originally had a couple, but now only gradually Memories of going away.
