Note that this is the most beautiful twin sister in the country that was popular in the 1999 military parade.
They come from the female soldiers team. With their beautiful faces and upright posture, they have attracted the attention of audiences across the country. Afterwards, they were named "the most beautiful female soldiers" and later participated in the Spring Festival Gala.
But surprisingly, just when the two of them had a bright future, they quickly disappeared, making people wonder what happened? They clearly have a great avenue, but why did they give up the fame and fortune that they are in front of them?
On October 1, 1999, the 50th anniversary of the founding of New China. To this end, our country convened 110,000 elite troops, formed 52 platoons, held a grand military parade of the century, and broadcast it live to the whole country.
At this military parade, not only the short-standing Army Air Force, Marine Corps and other troops entered people's vision for the first time, and a large number of independent new weapons and equipment also greatly aroused the public's interest.
However, whether it is the "King of Land Warfare" 99 main battle tank or the "Flying Leopard" J-7 fighter bomber, they are not as noticeable as these two female soldiers. Their cool and heroic posture has become a beautiful scenery in the past.
And these two are the "Sisters in the Army" Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili .
On January 23, 1977, this pair of doomed twins were born in an working family in Anshan, Liaoning. Both parents work in the nationally renowned Angang , and their family conditions are actually quite wealthy.
At that time, after seeing the twin sisters, the worker colleagues all praised them for their cuteness, so their parents named them Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili, hoping to be as beautiful as rose and jasmine.
The twin sisters did not disappoint their parents' expectations. As they grew older, they became more and more beautiful and charming, and also showed their extraordinary talent for dancing.
As soon as they hear the song, the two will dance to the rhythm and dance in a good manner. So as soon as their parents decided to send him to the local Youth Palace to study dance when they were 6 years old.
In fact, at that time, my father actually wanted the two sisters to study hard first, and then go to the army to serve in the motherland when they grow up, but my mother thought that she could learn dance first and be an art soldier was also a good choice.
In the end, the father agreed to his mother's opinion. Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili spent their entire childhood in the dance studio, and they were accompanied by dancing shoes every day, almost never stopping.
You should know that ten minutes on stage and ten years of hard work off stage, practicing dancing is not an easy task. In addition to practicing the body, you also need to practice your mentality. Many people just can't stand the boredom and stop practicing halfway.
However, the two sisters are not ordinary people. They not only have excellent dancing talent, but also have an extremely tough heart. Whether it is leg pressing , the pain of stretching, or the boredom that has been going on for ten years, they have endured it.
Not only that, every time my mother sends them to the dance studio to practice, the teacher will praise the two of them for their good talent and hardship, and will definitely succeed in the future, and may become stars.
By 1991, the efforts over the years finally paid off. At the National Art Soldier Special Recruitment Conference in the Beijing Military Region, the sisters Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili stood out among 100,000 people with outstanding results and became the second of the seven Art Soldiers.
The parents of the two were happy and couldn't help but start to worry about whether they could endure hardships. After all, the strictness of the army is much higher than that of the dance studio, not to mention that girls are naturally weaker than boys.
However, the two sisters were not worried at all, and they comforted their parents, saying that they would be able to hold on. It was from this time that they started their legendary military career.
In the morning, they insisted on reviewing their dance skills and conducted physical training with their comrades in the afternoon. They did not waste time at night, and they went to the reading room to learn new knowledge every night.
The militarized routine not only did not overwhelm the two sisters, but instead made them look graceful. At the same time, there was ink in their stomachs, which also changed their temperaments.
From then on, Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili's reputation resounded throughout the army. At that time, the entire Beijing Military Region was not only the literary and artistic forces, but even other troops had heard of such a pair of hard-working sisters.
After that, during his days in the army, the two sisters also obtained high school diplomas through self-study. Soon after, they were admitted to the People's Liberation Army Bethune Military Medical College, where they studied in nursing and testing majors respectively.
During their further studies in the Military Medical College, they still did not relax. In addition to learning professional skills, they also took time to practice dance skills and shine in the college's art performances and became famous throughout the school.
How famous were they? In 1999, my country was about to hold a military parade to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. The school leaders without thinking and recommended the sisters without saying a word, because the leaders thought that these two were the only two suitable.
After receiving the news, the two sisters were naturally overjoyed and quickly packed their luggage and went to the training camp.
We all know that soldiers who can participate in the National Day military parade are elites selected from thousands of people, so the training before the military parade is thousands of times more difficult than usual, and it is not something that ordinary people can hold on.
However, the two sisters not only persisted, but also made three third-class merits with excellent training results. The older sister Zhang Weiwei was promoted to the squad leader, and the younger sister Zhang Lili became the district captain.
At the same time, the outstanding performance of the two sisters was also appreciated by Jia Longchi, the leader of the female soldiers platoon team of the military parade. He told the leaders of various departments about their advantages and proposed to promote him to the leader of the female soldiers platoon team. When the proposal of
was first submitted, the leaders actually disagreed. However, when they saw the two sisters' heroic figure with their own eyes, they changed their minds one after another. In the end, Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili were elected as leaders of the female soldiers.
On the morning of October 1, 1999, the Century Parade for the 50th Anniversary of the National Day officially began. The rows of columns stepped forward, holding the latest model of Type 595 rifle , and the Type 99 main battle tank team, all aroused cheers from the audience.
However, whether it is a slender male soldier or a torrent of steel from the main battle tank, the vibration caused is not as good as that of a female soldier.
The female soldiers team caused a burst of exclamations from the audience as soon as they entered the court. Then, without anyone commanding, they began to applaud. The applause continued for a long time, and even the audience watching the live broadcast could not extricate themselves.
The audience was amazed not only by the beauty of the female soldiers, but more by praising their heroic posture and appreciating the confidence of the female soldiers of the People's Liberation Army they showed, especially the two female soldiers in the leading position, which attracted the attention of the whole country.
So, what happened to them after the two team leader sisters and female soldiers shined in the military parade?
After Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili retreated from the military parade, the people of the whole country did not stop paying attention and asked around where they were from and which troops they served, and wanted to visit them.
, and this also caused great trouble to the two. It would be fine if the brothers came to communicate well, but they were comrades who lived and died together. Many people also ran to the gate of the military region to see this pair of " sisters in the army flowers".
In the end, the troops were really unbearable and decided to take advantage of the end of the military parade to give the two a good holiday, let them go home to accompany their parents, and at the same time, they refused all visitors.
The two sisters were naturally happy to see it. They had just graduated at this time, so they returned to the People's Liberation Army Bethune Military Medical College. Not only did they get the graduation certificate with excellent results, but they were also awarded the rank of lieutenant. After
, they returned to their hometown in Anshan and stayed with their parents, but I don’t know who leaked the news. The villagers rushed to visit after hearing the news and almost stepped on the threshold.
Not only that, some of the big bosses who smelled business opportunities also flew from all over the country, asking the two sisters to be product spokespersons. As long as they agree to be on the camera, the endorsement fee is not a problem at all.
Faced with such amazing benefits, if ordinary people had agreed on the spot, but Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili were not ordinary people. They have practiced dancing day after day since childhood and served in the army, and have long been practicing toughness.
While rejecting all business invitations, they explained the situation to the villagers, hoping not to disturb themselves too much. In fact, the villagers were just seeing the new things, and the popularity soon passed.
However, just as the sisters Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili were about to return to the army to serve, a composer named Zang Yunfei suddenly came to the door.

After hearing his purpose, the two sisters agreed to the request after a little thought. After all, this song was indeed tailor-made for the two, and singing on the Spring Festival Gala can also show the heroic posture of female soldiers and the People's Liberation Army. Why not do it?
That's it. At the 2000-cross-century Spring Festival Gala, Zhang Weiwei and Zhang Lili sang a song "Sisters in the Army". The sweet voice, beautiful face and proud heroic posture once again conquered the national audience in front of the TV.
Maybe at this time someone might say that the sisters became famous again on the Spring Festival Gala, and they will definitely take the path of stardom next, right? Even if you don’t follow the celebrity path and go around the country, you can make a lot of money.
However, the fact is exactly the opposite. After stepping off the Spring Festival Gala stage, they rejected all business-related activities, returned to the army to continue serving, and gradually faded out of people's vision.
After that, they formed their own families one after another. With their excellent past experience, their sister Zhang Weiwei was assigned to the Fourth Military Medical University of the People's Liberation Army, and their sister Zhang Lili worked in National Defense University .
Perhaps as the motto of the two sisters believes in, "Female soldiers do not believe in tears, are not afraid of hardship, are not willing to give in, and love to study." And they have practiced this sentence throughout their lives, which is a role model for female soldiers and the People's Liberation Army.
