Ye Qianwen Ye Qianwen was born in Taipei City, Taiwan Province, China on September 30, 1961, and her ancestral home is Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province.
Ye Qianwen's grandfather has a high status in Taiwan, but her grandfather has always looked down upon her father. This is because Ye Qianwen's father fled to Taiwan from Guangdong during the Anti-Japanese War.
After Ye Qianwen's father fled to Taiwan, he met her mother. The two got together without telling Ye Qianwen's grandfather, so even though the parents got together, Ye Qianwen's grandfather never liked Ye Qianwen's father.
doesn't like his son-in-law, but Ye Qianwen's grandfather also loves his granddaughter very much. In this way, Ye Qianwen's childhood was very happy.
In the blink of an eye, it was 1965. When Ye Qianwen was 4 years old, her mother moved to Victoria, Canada with her parents in order to allow her daughter to receive a better education and experience a different life.
After arriving in Canada, Ye Qianwen's parents discovered that living in a foreign country was really not easy. In addition, they did not have much savings, so it didn't take long for Ye Qianwen's father to go out to do some odd jobs to earn money to support the family.
Even under this situation, Ye Qianwen's parents did not relax their daughter's education. During this period, Ye Qianwen's grandfather learned that his daughter's family was not happy living abroad and wanted them to return to Taiwan. However, Ye Qianwen's mother still felt that the education abroad was better than that in Taiwan and was unwilling to go back.
But there are also disadvantages in foreign countries. For example, just because they are foreigners, they will be bullied by many locals. The same is true for Ye Qianwen in school, so Ye Qianwen has almost no friends in school.
This situation made the young Ye Qianwen very lonely, so she fell in love with music. From the age of 6, Ye Qianwen often came home from school and sang her favorite songs alone in her room.
's parents were not very supportive of Ye Qianwen's love for music. When they saw that Ye Qianwen only smiled when she was singing, they left her alone.
As time went by, Ye Qianwen's grandfather also gradually let go of what happened back then. He especially doted on his granddaughter who had grown up. Therefore, Ye Qianwen often traveled back and forth between Taiwan and Canada.
When she was 16 years old, she returned to Taiwan to visit her grandfather. While watching TV with the whole family at home, Ye Qianwen fell in love with an actress named Fan Danfeng on TV. At this time, Ye Qianwen's aunt said: "Fan Danfeng is a student of a friend of mine. If you like her, I can invite her to my house for dinner."
After hearing this, Ye Qianwen was very happy and said to her aunt cautiously: "Then can I join the TV station?"
After hearing this, her aunt smiled slightly: "I can try to arrange it."
Within a few days, under the arrangement of her aunt, Ye Qianwen met the big star she had longed for and also joined the TV station.
Coincidentally, at that time, the TV station had a play that wanted Brigitte Lin to star in, but Brigitte Lin did not have time due to schedule, so the director took a fancy to Michelle Yeh who came to the TV station to participate.

The height of 16-year-old Ye Qianwen has grown to 1.7 meters, and she is also very beautiful, with fair skin and beautiful appearance. Especially after putting on makeup, she is even more captivated.
In the end, the director decided to let Ye Qianwen star in his new film. The boss of the production company is Ye Qianwen's teacher Ma Yonglin.
When Ma Yonglin saw Ye Qianwen for the first time, he told her that he could sign her into his company and create an album for Ye Qianwen the next year. This made Ye Qianwen, who was just 16 years old, very excited, and it was the first time that she had the idea of becoming a singer and a star.
Ye Qianwen told her grandfather about this idea and was severely criticized by her grandfather. After all, Ye Qianwen was only a middle school student at the time. Later, Ye Qianwen was sent back to Canada by her grandfather.
When she returned to her parents, her mother was afraid that Ye Qianwen would do something stupid, so she told her to study hard first and then pursue her dreams later. She and her father would support her.
Mother originally planned to subtly dispel Ye Qianwen's unrealistic ideas in the rest of her life, so she often told Ye Qianwen some truth, but Ye Qianwen, who had already decided in her heart, did not listen to what her mother said at all, and was even a little disgusted.
So in later life, Ye Qianwen often returned to Taiwan during winter and summer vacations. On the one hand, she wanted to avoid her mother's nagging, and on the other hand, she also wanted to see if she would have the opportunity to film and sing again.
Perhaps Ye Qianwen was destined to become a star. When she returned to Taiwan again at the age of 19, an opportunity came to her.
When 19-year-old Ye Qianwen returned to Taiwan to visit her grandpa, a friend recommended Ye Qianwen to shoot a juice commercial. With this advertisement, Ye Qianwen officially opened the door to the entertainment industry.
The juice commercial shot by Ye Qianwen was discovered by Ma Yonglin, who had always been optimistic about her, so Ma Yonglin recommended Ye Qianwen to the famous Taiwanese music Li Taixiang who once wrote "Olive Tree" for Qi Yu.
Li Taixiang created Ye Qianwen's first solo album "Relief of Spring", and Ye Qianwen officially entered the entertainment industry from this.
Not only that, Ma Yonglin also invited Ye Qianwen to star with him in the movie "A Match" produced by his company. The two of them were in a "publicly-funded love affair" in this movie.
Ma Yonglin is only 6 years older than Ye Qianwen. He has been a lot of help to Ye Qianwen. At the same time, he is handsome and rich but has few scandals. Ye Qianwen naturally developed a liking for Ma Yonglin.
After filming this movie, Ma Yonglin introduced Ye Qianwen to Wu Zhengyuan of Warner Records ( Lin Zixiang's ex-wife). After Wu Zhengyuan listened to Ye Qianwen's singing, he felt that she was very talented in singing. After experience, she will definitely become a well-known singer in time.
Wu Zhengyuan admired Ye Qianwen very much. In addition, the two of them were about the same age and shared many topics in common. So it didn't take long for the two to become good best friends and began to treat each other as sisters.
The relationship was so good that Wu Zhengyuan did not hide any secrets. He brought his husband Lin Zixiang over to help Ye Qianwen, who grew up in Canada and was not good at Chinese, practice Chinese songs.
Lin Zixiang is an absolute leader in the Hong Kong music scene. In 1980, he won two Golden Melody Awards in a row with " in the middle of the water " and " needs you every minute ".
After meeting Ye Qianwen, Lin Zixiang also liked this junior very much. He thought of a way to solve the problem of Ye Qianwen's poor Chinese, which was to let Ye Qianwen use English phonetic notation to sing in Chinese.
As a result, Ye Qianwen’s disadvantage of not being good at Chinese was also solved.
In fact, at that time, Ye Qianwen had already fallen in love with her teacher Lin Zixiang, who was 14 years older than her. However, Wu Zhengyuan was also watching silently at this time, and the two of them had no chance to go further.

In 1981, 21-year-old Fei Xiang returned to Taiwan from studying in the United States. Because of his outstanding appearance and good temperament, he was recommended by the famous director Sylvia Chang to star in the Taiwan TV unit drama "Eleven Women".
In 1982, Fei Xiang joined EMI Records and successively released albums such as "Linger", "Ask the Setting Sun" and "Broader Seas and Sky".
Ye Qianwen, who was 21 years old in the same year, also released a new album "Promise Me", and also appeared in the movie "Love Street" for the first time. Later, she played a young lady in the movie " guest sister ".
Taiwan is not a big place, and they are both singers, so Fei Xiang and Ye Qianwen met soon after. Both of them had returned from studying abroad. They were similar in age, had similar life experiences, and had the same interests and hobbies, so the two fell in love with each other not long after.
The beautiful and handsome two fell in love passionately and often attended some events together as a couple. Fei Xiang even openly said on TV that "Ye Qianwen is mine."
After Ye Qianwen fell in love with Fei Xiang, she left Ma Yonglin and Lin Zixiang behind. She only wanted to stay and fly together with Fei Xiang, but the setbacks in their relationship became bigger and bigger each time.
Because both of them are stars and their careers are on the rise, their romance has always attracted everyone's attention. At this time, Fei Xiang's mother made it clear that she did not like Ye Qianwen. She believed that Ye Qianwen would affect her son's career.
Under such circumstances, the relationship between Fei Xiang and Ye Qianwen turned from a passionate love at the beginning to a dull relationship, and finally turned into a cold one. Finally, in 1983, the two people, who had been in love for less than two years, chose to break up.
Although she and Fei Xiang broke up, Ye Qianwen, who once attached great importance to this relationship, couldn't let go at all for a while. There is a saying that "the best way to forget a relationship is to start the next one."
Therefore, in the next period of time, there were scandals about Ye Qianwen with director McDonald's , actor Cheng Haonan , and "Ship King" son Zhao Shiteng . She also collaborated with "Master" Lin Zixiang on the Cantonese song "Reunion".
Until 1984, Ye Qianwen began to shift the focus of her career from Taiwan to Hong Kong. It was also at this time that her rumored boyfriend became the wealthy jewelry businessman Yang Bingliang.
At this time, the Hong Kong music scene was at its most glorious. With the help of Lin Zixiang, Michelle Ye released her first Cantonese album "Yip Karen". The lead song " zero hour ten " was selected as the annual hit song , and Michelle Ye became an instant hit in Hong Kong. While
's singing career was booming, Ye Qianwen was not satisfied with just singing, and began to enter the film industry. She has appeared in film and television dramas such as " Shanghai Nights ", " Teppanyaki ", "Love God No. 1" and so on.
Moreover, Ye Qianwen also became the heroine of Tsui Hark's movie for a period of time, and the outside world began to have other speculations about the relationship between the two.
In 1986, Sylvia Ye, Brigitte Lin, Chung Chu-hong and others starred in Tsui Hark's movie "The King of Swordsman". Because of her outstanding performance in the film, Sylvia Ye was nominated for the Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress.

With outstanding performances in singing and movies, Karen Yeh has gradually grown into a first-line actress in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. She has also collaborated with "Master" Lin Zixiang on many classic songs, and the relationship between the two has gradually changed.
In 1987, with the song " Blessings
", Ye Qianwen swept all the awards in the Hong Kong music industry, and won 12 awards including "Top Ten Golden Songs", " Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs ", and "The Popular Music Chart".
's song "Blessing" can be regarded as breaking Anita Mui 's position as the "big sister" in the Hong Kong music scene. This year, the movie " Diary of a Real Man " starring Michelle Ye, Chow Yun-fat , Wang Zuxian and others also achieved good box office results.
In fact, Ye Qianwen and Lin Zixiang had already secretly communicated at this time, and only Wu Zhengyuan was still immersed in the joy of having a son and a daughter.
After that, Ye Qianwen continued to win multiple awards including "Top Ten Golden Songs" and "Most Popular Female Singer" with songs such as "Burning Heart" and "Walk Away".
In 1991, "Big Sister" Anita Mui announced that she would no longer participate in the selection of various music awards, so Sally Yeh, who was only 30 years old, began to take over Anita Mui's position and became the "Queen of Music" generally recognized by the Hong Kong media and audiences.
In 1992, first Lin Zixiang became popular on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places with his song " Men Should Be Strong ", and then Sylvia Ye also gained great popularity with her song "Live a Life Sincerely".
At this time, the two people no longer avoided their feelings for each other and began to show off their affection in a high-profile manner. Under such circumstances, Wu Zhengyuan chose to divorce Lin Zixiang in 1995.
Everyone thought that after Lin Zixiang and Wu Zhengyuan divorced, he would marry Michelle Ye immediately. However, at that time, Michelle Ye, Tsui Hark, and line dancer Sunny Wong were all rumored to have scandals. In addition, Michelle Yeh said in an interview that she was waiting for her rich ex-boyfriend to chase her back.
But in the end, Ye Qianwen chose to marry Lin Zixiang in 1997. After the two got married in Canada, they chose to settle in Canada and quit the music scene. The Hong Kong music scene began to enter the Faye Wong era.
In the years after
, Ye Qianwen and Lin Zixiang have always been very affectionate, but this time did not last too long. In 2003, Ye Qianwen met American badminton coach Yang Shangren through a friend's introduction.
Lin Zixiang, who likes to play badminton, is also happy to see this happen, but who knows that he will soon discover that Yang Shangren is not only good at playing ball, but also has expertise in some aspects. He not only drives Ye Qianwen's car during the day, but also "drives" Ye Qianwen to the apartment with Ye Qianwen at night.
After the incident was exposed, Lin Zixiang's ex-wife also stood up to respond to the reasons for her divorce from Lin Zixiang, pointing the finger at Ye Qianwen, to which Ye Qianwen and Lin Zixiang have not responded.
In a few years, news of Lin Zixiang and Ye Qianwen's marriage change will come out, but the two often work together to break the divorce rumors, and they never respond to those bad rumors.
Moreover, in order to maintain her relationship with Lin Zixiang, Ye Qianwen chose not to have children for the rest of her life. The song "The Possibility of Love " she released in 2003 sang about the special relationship between her and her stepson.
Today, Sylvia Ye and Lin Zixiang have already become the "myths" of the Hong Kong music scene. The two have been married for 25 years. Although some people have always been unfavorable about their marriage, they have proved with facts that their marriage is happy!
