The scorching Shenzhen summer breeze blew the corner of the curtain. The time was approaching midnight, but a figure was still busy shuttling behind the bar in the dance hall. He is the dean, the first director Zeng Yi who holds so many positions. "I'm going to work overtime again, big brother?."A little waiter passed by and quipped. Zeng Yi rubbed his sore temples, raised his head and barely squeezed out a smile.
After three jobs, the two legs are not their own, so I grabbed a piece of cold pizza leftovers and filled my stomach to refresh myself, so that the night was still long. Just as Zeng Yi took out a cigarette and was about to light it, the sound of hurried high heels suddenly came from far and near. A slender girl rushed through the door, the diamond hairpin on her head crooked to the side because she was running too fast, and fine beads of sweat hung on her forehead. "Was... Mr. Zeng, am I late?I'm Reika!She gasped as she grabbed the folder from her handbag. "Yo, I graduated from art school. Okay, you!As soon as he heard that he was here to apply for a job to sing, Zeng Yi immediately threw down the pizza in his hand and took the person into the drum behind him.
Linghua happily looked at Zeng Yi who was slowly falling by the drumbeat on the stage, revealing a confident smile. In the end, she was hired. Zeng Yi's eyes have always been vicious, and her brilliant and dazzling talent on stage did not give his rock and roll heart a chance to hide. On the third day after Linghua came to the dance hall, she was arranged to form a three-person singing and dancing group with Zeng Yi. For a time, cheerful dance music sounded in major entertainment venues in Shenzhen. However, the good times didn't last long, and before Linghua could finish the dry food she brought from her hometown, the group was disbanded due to the members' personal reasons. "What to do?I have already bought this ticket back to Inner Mongolia!Linghua anxiously pulled the corner of Zeng Yi's clothes.
Rest assured!We regroup!Zeng Yi was very calm, stretched out five fingers and shook them in front of her eyes. Sure enough, in the spring of 1999, "Cool Fire" came into being. Zeng Yi took over the venue design, rehearsal choreography, props and lighting management of the dance hall, and all the creative inspiration continued to top his head. At the same time, Linghua wears the halo of an art school student on her head and soon becomes the leader of the new group. She is responsible for the stage design and direction, and at the same time takes on the responsibility of the lead singer on both shoulders. Finally, with the joint efforts of the two, the Cool Fire combination quickly opened up its popularity in Shenzhen.
However, the good times did not last long, and in early 2002, a sudden SARS epidemic swept in. Shenzhen, as the hardest-hit area of the epidemic, is under martial law throughout the city. Linghua and Zeng Yi were trapped in a dance hall with no one left for two months. During this period, the two worked day and night to create the wonderful anti-epidemic song "On the Moon". Soon, this song not only inspired the Chinese people in the epidemic, but also made Kuhuo's popularity increase rapidly. "We succeeded!Now people will never forget the cool fire!The two wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes and hugged each other vigorously. In 2003, the popularity of "On the Moon" attracted the attention of Peacock Records owner Chen Rentai. The business critic saw at a glance the potential of Reika's distinctive voice, and categorically stated that he wanted to sign Reika alone.
Zeng Yi's kid can't do it, drag his feet!He ordered his assistant to change the contract in **. "Impossible!Either we'll sign it together, or I'll not do it alone!Reika almost roared. "Good!It's up to you!Chen Rentai did not expect to encounter such resolute opposition, so he had to revise the content of the contract. On the day the news came, Zeng Yi was drying clothes on the balcony. When Linghua told him that they could make their debut together, he was so excited that he threw all the hangers in his hands downstairs.
Really?As a Phoenix Legend?For many days and nights, he repeated the name of the new group. But the good times didn't last long, and in the first year of their signing and debut, they were alienated from the employer. has participated in countless singing competitions and won various awards, but the income is still very small. What's worse is that at one point, both of them were in debt, and Zeng Yi had to borrow money from friends to get by. "We won't have a chance to be on the Spring Festival Gala. Late one night, the two sat side by side in the backstage of the dance hall, and Zeng Yi looked gloomy.
Yes!There will definitely be a chance!Reika grabbed his arm as hard as she had been on the night they had met years ago. In the 24-year cooperation, Linghua and Zeng Yi have never had a dispute over account sharing. Because they both know in their hearts that all the achievements now come from the beginning of going hand in hand. At first, Zeng Yi took the initiative to propose "five or five accounts" in order to let Linghua, who had just arrived in Shenzhen to work hard, develop with peace of mind. Although at that time the contribution of the two in the group was completely unequal. Linghua felt flattered at first, but later she often blamed herself for it. She thought of Zeng Yi's humble rental house, and remembered the appearance of him sending long-distance remittances with his family over the years, and her heart was full of pimples.
Later, with the increase of popularity and income, Linghua became the star and pillar of the group. There are constantly voices from the outside world questioning Zeng Yi as a vase. But Reika never wavered in her determination to share the account with him. Because she knows too well that if it weren't for Zeng Yi's trust and cultivation in her at the beginning, all the achievements she has today would not have been. Every time she thinks of this, she once again firmly chooses to continue the "five-five-open" mode. In fact, under this friendship that transcends monetary interests, they are more like a pair of communities with a shared future. The two have been inseparable for many years and share weal and woe. Linghua was always the first to protect Zeng Yi;And Zeng Yi never gave up staying under Linghua's wings. They treat each other as if they were loved by their loved ones. This is also why, the outside world often ridicules how they can not be a pair of lovers.
In fact, how can there be love between them?It's just because I know too much and trust too much that I have been inseparable for 24 years. This friendship that transcends love and interest constitutes the immortal legend of this god-level combination. It has also made them live a different free and honest life in this deceptive rivers and lakes in the entertainment industry.
