In the Spring Festival Gala in 2005, the dance of "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands" shocked countless people. Amazingly, the "Thousand Hands Guanyin", which perfectly blends agility and grace, is actually performed by a group of hearing-impaired actors.
Tai Lihua has won wide acclaim across the country for her unique lead dance talent and is known as a new star in the dance industry. Unlike those stars who frequently make money on the screen when they become popular, she has chosen a completely different path.
After gaining fame and fortune, she politely rejected the pursuit of the rich and disappeared without a trace. In the blink of an eye, 18 years have passed, what is her current situation?
Fortunately, even at the low point of life, Tai Lihua did not give up looking for hope. In the winter of her two-year-old year, a sudden illness caused her to lose her hearing, but this did not stop her from pursuing a happy and ordinary life.
They tried to reduce their daughter's fever with the fever medicine they always had at home, hoping that she would recover quickly. However, the medication did not bring the desired effect, and the daughter's condition did not improve, leaving the parents anxious.
At a critical juncture, a wrong decision completely changed Tai Lihua's fate.
During a visit to the small clinic, the doctor mistakenly injected streptomycin into her body in order to lower her temperature as soon as possible. However, her body temperature has not dropped. When she went to the doctor again, she was given streptomycin, which also has anti-inflammatory properties, in the hope of helping her lower her temperature.
However, they did not foresee that this negligence would cause irreparable damage to the child. Soon after the injection, Tai Lihua's physical condition became worse, not only did her condition reverse, but she also had an obvious drug allergic reaction.
At this critical juncture, young parents have not yet noticed anything unusual.
Although the child's condition has improved, regret has remained with him throughout his life, but the parents are still unaware. One day, the little girl's discomfort caught the attention of her teacher. When playing in class, Tai Lihua is always silent and seems out of place with her classmates.
The teacher was keenly aware of the situation and took the initiative to contact the parents for details. After listening to the teacher's doubts, they realized the seriousness of the problem - it turned out that the child had lost his hearing.
They couldn't accept the reality and took their daughter to seek medical treatment everywhere, hoping to find the hope of **. However, the harsh reality tells them that their daughter's hearing has been permanently damaged beyond reversal.
Closing a door and opening a window, the parents of the primary school student originally hoped that she would be able to Xi in a regular school, but because of her severe hearing impairment, she could not adapt to the classroom environment and had to transfer to a special school for education.
There, she began to learn sign language and gradually opened up her inner world.
Under the guidance of professionals, she developed unique communication skills and discovered ways to express herself. Although the education model of the deaf school is different from that of ordinary schools, and more emphasis is placed on practical operations, in the dance class, she experienced an unprecedented shock.
In the interweaving of **, the teacher played the piano while beating the elephant foot drum, and the faint vibration seemed to be the pulse of the earth, quietly transmitted along the wooden floor. This allowed her to experience a sense of mystery and naturalness that filled her regret for not being able to listen, and truly grasped the charm of dance.
In the realization that dance can become its own silent world"Incredible existence"Later, Tai Lihua decided to devote herself to dance training. Unable to hear, she had great difficulty following the rhythm of the dance.
However, instead of holding back, she became more determined. Although her shoes are worn out, and despite repeated Xi of her dance moves, she always insists that as long as she persists, she will always find a feeling. After a long period of hard practice, her dancing skills have become more and more refined, even surpassing many able-bodied children.
Her success is not accidental, but behind her hard work and determination. In 1991, she stood out for her outstanding performance in the Provincial Dance Competition and joined the China Disabled Persons Art Troupe for more professional training.
A year later, she went abroad for the first time and amazed everyone on the overseas stage with a song "Dunhuang Colored Sculpture". She has once again proven herself on the international stage with her outstanding acting prowess.
In 2000, Tai Lihua presented a visual feast to a global audience, that is, her performance of the Thousand-Armed Guanyin Dance in Carnegie Hall in New York.
In this performance, she deeply touched the hearts of every audience with an extraordinary magic and outstanding expressiveness, allowing people to see the incomparable talent of this "thousand-armed Guanyin".
As a hearing-impaired girl, she has successfully become one of the core members of the China Disabled Art Troupe, and is known as a national treasure-level artist.
She has single-handedly reversed stereotypes about people with disabilities and made everyone believe that everyone has the ability to achieve their dreams. It is worth mentioning that although Tai Lihua lives in a silent world, her life is not a blank slate.
On the way to pursue her dreams, she met the love of her life and spent every journey of her life with her. Tai Lihua successfully attracted the attention of wealthy businessmen, but her life did not change because of it. In 2004, she led a group of young deaf dancers to perform "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands" at the Athens Paralympics, and the audience was amazed.
The following year, she led the dance troupe on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
She has demonstrated the artistic charm of people with disabilities through dance in the world's top theaters such as Carnegie and La Scala, allowing more people to appreciate its unique style. Later, Tai Lihua's dance troupe was invited to perform in Malaysia, and after the performance, a wealthy Malaysian was attracted by her talent and expressed his love to her.
His heart was deeply attracted by Tai Lihua's perseverance, and he fell in love at first sight and began an 8-year pursuit. Although the rich are well versed in all kinds of romantic pursuits, from flowers to luxury gifts, they are generous.
However, Tai Lihua politely declined again and again. She knows very well that falling in love with this wealthy businessman will inevitably cause the outside world to discuss the "disparity between the doors", which will cause great pressure on both parties. Therefore, although she was grateful for the sincere feelings of the wealthy businessman, she chose to let go.
The wealthy businessman was deeply shocked, and he firmly believed that as long as he continued to work hard, he would have a chance to win Tai Lihua's heart. Therefore, he waited silently, even after many rejections.
It wasn't until 8 years later, when he expressed his feelings again, that Tai Lihua had found her own happiness.
Spend the rest of her life with her excellent husband When Tai Lihua planned to go to her aunt's house for a short stay, she arrived at her aunt's door with her suitcase, but was surprised to find that there was no one at home.
When he heard the movement, Li Chun's neighbor took the initiative to open the door. After learning about her situation, Li Chun showed extreme politeness and sincerely invited her to rest in his own home and wait for the matter to be resolved.
The conversation between the two took place on the couch, and the girl remained silent. At this time, he realized that the beautiful girl in front of him turned out to be a hearing-impaired person. Although Tai Lihua couldn't make a sound, this did not affect Li Chun.
In this way, they exchanged pen and paper face to face for six hours, chatting from noon to evening. When Li Chun saw her for the first time, she smiled shyly, and this smile moistened his heart like spring rain and made him deeply fascinated by her. Although Tai Lihua is a deaf and mute person, this has not diminished her ability to feel love.
The relationship between the two quickly warmed up in the in-depth communication, and soon decided to stay together for the rest of their lives. In order to create a warm home for Tai Lihua, Li Chun, a top student, has put in a lot of efforts.
He began to learn Xi sign language in order to better communicate with Tai Lihua. In addition, he explained things to his family with great patience, tried his best to dispel their misconceptions about people with disabilities, and won their acceptance and support. After marriage, they had a healthy son, which also made Tai Lihua's mentality more peaceful.
Tai Lihua chose to fade out of the public eye when her career was in full swing, which made people wonder. Did she encounter any difficulties, or did she have other plans?Whatever the reason, her choice deserves our respect and understanding.
What is her current life situation after retiring from the stage?Since 2008, Tai Lihua has slowly faded out of the public eye, and has turned to work behind the scenes, becoming a mentor for deaf and mute children.
Over the years, she has worked hard to Xi her knowledge of the language, and is now fluent in basic spoken English and able to communicate on a daily basis.
She has always adhered to a positive attitude towards life, and helped those in need by founding her own public welfare association. After Wenchuan in 2008, she interpreted her love with practical actions, and personally donated one million yuan for post-disaster reconstruction.
In addition to her day-to-day work, she also leads the troupe on tours around the world, and a portion of the revenue from the tour is donated to support disaster recovery efforts in various places.
In order to give more children with disabilities the opportunity to contact and love art, she founded a special school affiliated to the art troupe for the disabled in her hometown of Yichang, so that these special children can also show themselves and shine on the stage of art.
At a global disability-themed gala, she performed the classic "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands" with dozens of other dancers to arouse society's concern and assistance for special groups.
Through her efforts, she hopes to promote a more accepting and caring society for people with disabilities.
Ending:
Tai Lihua may no longer be the queen who shines on the stage, but she is still influencing the world in a special way.
Whether it is in the charity activities she participates in or in the school's educational work, she always adheres to her beliefs and strives to pass on the power of love to everyone. We look forward to Tai Lihua continuing to write her own brilliant chapter."
