In the 2005 Spring Festival Gala, 29-year-old Tai Lihua dance called "Thousand-Handed Guanyin" shocked the whole country. After learning that she was deaf and mute, she was even more shocked.
From then on, Tai Lihua began to go abroad and go to the world, but she chose to withdraw from the audience's sight at the peak of her career.
What kind of unknown sadness is behind her success?
After becoming famous, Tai Lihua had many suitors, and a wealthy man boldly expressed his love to her, but she flatly rejected her.
and her husband Li Chun have been together for so many years. What kind of past have they had?
What kind of life does Tai Lihua live now?
1976, Tai Lihua was born in Yichang, Hubei. Her parents cared for her very much. Even if her family was not rich, she would do her best to leave the best to her daughter.
Tai Lihua has been beautiful and very smart since she was a child. Most of the 2-year-old children can only babble and she can communicate with her parents briefly.
The envy of neighbors and the praise of relatives made the couple think that their daughter is the best gift God gave to them.
However, when the "disaster" came, the family's beautiful fantasy about the future was broken.
The parents thought this was just a sequelae of fever and nothing big.
But I didn’t expect that a few days later, the school teacher called to report: "Your child couldn’t hear me talking when he was playing games, and his classmates didn’t respond. Why don’t you take her to the hospital for a look?"
After learning the doctor’s diagnosis, the parents were stunned on the spot like thunder. They couldn’t believe that their daughter was deaf.
"Doctor, my daughter is not congenital, please save her."
But the doctor could only shake his head helplessly. This case has never been cured in the whole world.
After returning home, the couple kept talking to Tai Lihua, hoping that the other party would react. Tai Lihua was very smart and could judge some content from her parents' lip shape. No matter how many there were, there was nothing we could do.
Mother often cried: "If we hadn't taken our daughter to the hospital, maybe this wouldn't have been like this."
Although I couldn't hear it, life would have to continue. In order to allow Tai Lihua to study like a normal child, her parents sent her to a school for deaf and muteness.
In addition to sign language classes, there are also rhythm training and dance classes in school.
Tai Lihua has a special liking for dance classes. When she watches TV at home, every time she sees " Peacock Dance " by Yang Liping, she will show an envious look, and the dancers on the screen have become her idol.
But deaf and mute people can't hear music, so how can they follow the music to rhythm?
The dance class in the deaf school has a special training method. The floors of the dance classroom are all made of wooden. Students can hear drums and piano sounds by sticking their ears to the floor.
It was seen that his daughter liked dancing very much, and the father was very happy. Even though the family had no money, he still bought his daughter a pair of white dance shoes.
It’s just that this deaf school is not a professional professor of dance. Many students came out to find a job in society, but Tai Lihua was unwilling to continue her studies in dance.
My parents strongly supported her dream and sent her to the Wuhan Deaf and Mute Center. Tai Lihua also officially came into contact with professional dance at this time.
Tai Lihua couldn't hear the music. In order to put the rhythm on, she memorized the entire score and practiced lip so that she could distinguish what the teacher said.
In order to make her dance more outstanding, Tai Lihua often practices hard alone in the dance studio, and even if she falls, she never thought of giving up.
Her efforts made the dance director Zhang Jigang very shocked, and he also found Yang Liping to evaluate her dance.
After watching Tai Lihua's performance, Yang Liping remained silent for a long time, and then couldn't help but applaud.
"Even if I can't dance so well without hearing music."
received personal guidance from my idol, Tai Lihua became the leading dancer of the Disabled Art Troupe. Since 1994, she has participated in many activities with the art troupe, from home to abroad, and has traveled to 16 countries. Her dance posture is deeply imprinted in the hearts of the audience.
Although Tai Lihua is deaf and mute, her excellence still attracts many suitors.
When performing in Malaysia , a rich second generation in the audience was deeply attracted by her. In order to pursue her, she also taught herself sign language, but no matter how he did, she could not impress Tai Lihua.
In Tai Lihua's heart, she loves her motherland and will not give up on her motherland and stay abroad.
However, not long after returning to China, Tai Lihua met her true marriage.
Although Tai Lihua has been performing on the stage, she did not give up the opportunity to study. In 1994, she took the college entrance examination and passed the Hubei Academy of Fine Arts , and chose the decoration design major.
At this moment, she is not a disabled person who needs special care, but an ordinary student like her classmates.
In 1995, Tai Lihua went to visit relatives on holiday. When she was downstairs, she was hesitant whether she had gone to the wrong place, so she stood there thinking.
Li Chun, who lived on the first floor at the time, happened to see a beautiful daughter frowning at the door of the unit, as if there was something difficult.
Li Chun walked out and asked: "Are you looking for someone?"
Tai Lihua understood his lips and gestured with her hands to tell his relative's name.
Li Chun then realized that the other party was deaf and mute. He immediately took out paper and pen from home to communicate, and helped her carry her luggage to her relative's house on the 5th floor.
From then on, the two of them communicated more, and gradually, Li Chun fell in love with this kind-hearted girl.
After Tai Lihua left, he often wrote letters to the girl, and the two of them confirmed their relationship in the correspondence.
However, this relationship was opposed by Li Chun's parents. They believed that their son would not be happy to marry a deaf and mute person, and it would be useless no matter how Li Chun convinced him.
, and Tai Lihua's family also thought at first that Li Chun was a poor boy and might not be able to take good care of his daughter.
However, Li Chun and Tai Lihua were not in a hurry to get married, and just enjoyed the joy of love. It was not until the parents of both sides were anxious to get married to their children and then they felt relieved.
In 2003, the two ended their 8-year long-distance race and entered the palace of marriage hand in hand.
Life after marriage is very happy. Every day when the two of them get up, they will type on their mobile phones to communicate and express their love between words.
Tai Lihua's career has also ushered in better opportunities.
The Spring Festival Gala in 2005 made her famous. It is worth mentioning that when she went to Malaysia to perform again, the rich second generation who pursued her was still waiting for her.
Faced with the rich man's second confession, Tai Lihua still refused calmly.
Someone asked her: "If I had accepted the rich second generation, maybe I would have lived a life of Jingyi and Yushi now, wouldn't you regret it?"
Tai Lihua said: "To me, Li Chun is my best life."
is just Tai Lihua's next move, but it surprised many people.
She chose to retreat behind the scenes and prepare for pregnancy.
For Tai Lihua, dancing is her dream, and her husband is the backing for her pursuit of her dreams.
I have been busy with performances over the years, and she can see the efforts of my husband behind him, and I want to do something for my husband.
When her son was born, Tai Lihua's life was no longer just about dancing, but more about her family.
The husband could see that she had too many concerns in her heart, but instead supported her to continue her career.
"You are focused on your career, and I am in everything at home."
Tai Lihua was very moved, but she did not return to the stage, but chose to cultivate more deaf and mute children to pursue their dreams.
The son was also very sensible under her education. When he was in school, he would occasionally meet classmates who laughed at him for having a deaf and mute mother. The son would come forward to argue and tell them that his mother was a very excellent person.
Now Tai Lihua is 46 years old. She has been married with Li Chun for 19 years. The family of three lives very happily.
She is still engaged in deaf and mute children. Education, especially paying attention to the psychological conditions of these children.
Tai Lihua also had inferiority and confusion back then. It was dreams and dance that took her out of the predicament. Now she hopes to do her part to allow more deaf and mute children to have a happy future.
And this road is inseparable from the support of her husband Li Chun. He is not a rich second generation, but the understanding and tolerance he has, the most precious wealth in this marriage.
For Tai Lihua, rejecting the rich at the beginning and marrying Li Chun was her most correct choice.
