The decade saw many smash hits.
Some of them are still active in the ** world today.
Some only flash briefly and then quickly disappear from view.
The female singer An Dong, who was a sensation in the 80s, was once famous, and she appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala four times.
However, Andong moved to the United States in the 90s and has not been heard from in China since.
She used to be the concubine of the "badminton queen" Li Lingwei, few people knew about it, and even took Li Lingwei to court.
What happened to Andong?
Why do you have to use "soldiers to meet each other"?
An Dong was born in 1963 in a Yi family in Sichuan, where the elders had participated in General Liu Wenhui's uprising in his early years.
After the founding of New China, An Dong's family still lived a solid life.
However, Andong did not live a comfortable and warm life.
Soon after she was born, she followed her parents to Tongren County, Guizhou.
The educated youths of that era did not go to the mountains and countryside for enjoyment.
On the contrary, most of them have suffered in remote areas.
An Dong grew up in a difficult environment, which also created her strong and independent character.
Once she has established a goal, she will strive to do her best.
Andong's parents attached great importance to her education, and despite the limited conditions, they lost no time in nurturing her interests and hobbies.
After Andong became interested in **, her father prepared a cello for her when she was ten years old.
An Dong trembled, carefully held up the cello that was taller than himself, and began his ** journey.
An Dong has a talent like no other in the field.
At the age of 13, she was successfully admitted to the local Peking Opera Troupe and became a professional cellist.
She was reluctant to give up her precious acting opportunities, so she chose to stay in the troupe after her parents were transferred back to Guiyang.
Andong prefers singing because he feels that he can express emotions and emotions with his unique voice, which he prefers to play an instrument.
In 1978, Andong officially decided to give up his role as a cellist and began to study vocal techniques.
Under the guidance of her vocal music teacher, Andong made great progress and was selected by the Guizhou Provincial Song and Dance Troupe after winning a local award.
An Dong found a career direction, but was not satisfied with the status quo, but actively participated in various ** activities, and used his spare time to continuously improve his ** literacy.
In 1982, An Dong was successfully admitted to Shanghai ** College with his own efforts.
Although An Dong has only transformed into a vocal actor for a few years, due to her continuous efforts and ten years of accumulation, she has achieved extremely outstanding results in all aspects.
Before graduating from Andong University, he was fortunate enough to be selected by the Air Politics Art Troupe to become a member of the army.
With the dream of **, An Dong came to Beijing from the south, hoping to start his career here and let it thrive.
The main task of the art troupe is to hold condolence performances for the soldiers stationed there, in addition to daily training.
In his spare time, An Dong actively participated in various first-class activities held by the army, and soon won special awards in first-class competitions.
Seeing that his voice was recognized by so many people, An Dong was immediately filled with endless motivation, and he only wanted to gain a place in the vocal field.
An Dong originally thought that everything would go well, but an unexpected event changed the direction of his vocal music.
Towards the end of a condolence performance, the soldiers suddenly made a small wish: they wanted to be able to enjoy the pop**.
In the early eighties of the last century, the popular ** has set off a trend abroad.
Although it is still a hobby for a few people in the country, it is growing rapidly.
The head of the art troupe felt very embarrassed, because all the members were trained in bel canto and knew nothing about pop music.
It was suggested that Andong try it because they had seen her singing with her colleagues in their leisure time.
An Dong took the stage and sang a pop song, which unexpectedly won the unanimous praise of the fighters present.
An Dong stood on the stage, listening to the thunderous applause of the soldiers, both surprised and proud in his heart.
Popular singing pays more attention to interpreting songs with feelings, and is more suitable for expressing personal innermost emotions than the high technical requirements of bel canto singing.
After careful consideration, An Dong finally made a decision to transition from bel canto to popular singing.
Although this change may seem insignificant, it directly affects the fate of Anton for the rest of his life.
Young singers showed their talents in singing competitions.
They think that the mainstream is the well-established bel canto singing style, and singing pop songs in the army always feels a bit rebellious.
Having cultivated an independent personality from an early age, Andong was not disturbed by the advice of others, and she firmly chose to pursue the path of pop music.
She needs to work harder to change her bel canto singing style and pick songs that suit her voice.
It's hard to progress in isolation, and she needs to participate in various competitions and events, communicate with people, and be mentored by industry bigwigs in order to keep improving.
In 1986, Anton was thrilled when he learned that the second Young Singer Grand Prix was about to be held.
However, the art troupe rejected her application on the grounds of limited places, saying that they would leave the opportunity to the best actors.
Although there are more well-known actors on the team, she is also eager to seize this rare opportunity, especially since she has not heard of a limited number of entries.
After An Dong was unable to make progress in communication, he sought help from the higher departments of the art troupe to solve the situation.
After receiving the feedback, the Ministry of Culture immediately made an instruction: the number of places is not limited, welcome to register.
An Dong happily put his heart back in his stomach and practiced seriously for the upcoming game, finally.
The competition between the gods is fierce, and the second singer contest can be described as an annual event filled with gunpowder.
Peng Liyuan, Mao Amin, Wei Wei, Yan Weiwen and a number of outstanding well-known singers have emerged one after another.
Although An Dong did not advance to the finals, he was the farthest among the art troupes of various military regions.
An Dong was highly valued, because he won the honor of the first place in the military region, and he no longer had to worry about troubles other than **.
She vowed in her heart that she would definitely achieve better results in the next competition.
After two years of preparation, she finally won the second place in the professional group in the 3rd Young Singer Competition.
An Dong was immediately furious.
Anton was overwhelmed with invitations to various events.
An Dong was fortunate to appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala in 1987 and performed a rare performance.
She wore the national costume of the Yi nationality and sang enthusiastically with extraordinary temperament, appearing in the final chorus of "Together".
An Dong is such a person, he is not proud when he wins, and he is not discouraged when he loses.
She will stand up firmly in the face of setbacks and get through them with her own efforts.
When she succeeds, she doesn't get complacent, but puts her heart and soul into it, moving on and striving for higher goals.
An Dong was invited to participate in the Spring Festival Gala again in 1989, and this time she will sing a song of her own "Is You Give Me Love" alone.
An Dong appeared on stage in a purple evening dress, expressing his love for the motherland, society, and all good things with his charming voice.
Two years later, An Dong appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala again and sang a song "Flashing Heart".
An Dong is still wearing a purple dress this time, which is more mature and generous than two years ago.
The body movements in the dance are reduced a little, but more delightful charm is added.
Although An Dong did not sing in the Spring Festival Gala in 1990, the sketch "Samsung Hair Salon" with Pan Changjiang and Li Lingyu is enough to prove her influence on CCTV.
An Dong's career has reached its peak in recent years.
She has successively launched ** "You already like me" and "Light Blue Star" and so on.
These songs are widely circulated and popular.
While the career is successful, love must not be ignored.
In 1984, An Dong met Yan Qingyong, a photographer from the Ministry of Aerospace Industry.
An Dong is a full 16 years younger than Yan Qingyong, but this age gap does not prevent the two hearts from attracting each other.
The two have just known each other for a short time, and they quickly fall into passionate love.
They were married the following year.
Yan Qingyong's wealthy family provided important support for An Dong's career.
Yan Qingyong's younger brother Yan Qingyi and badminton queen Li Lingwei also married in 1985.
Two women who have never met have become concubines because of family ties, and such a fate is really rare.
Therefore, they often move around each other and interact closely.
An Dong became popular on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and various concerts in the late eighties.
Li Lingwei also won the national championship and the world championship one after another.
Two successful women join forces to start a business together to make the most of each other's connections and add extra income**.
They agreed to open a health club that would combine fitness, leisure and social functions.
The "Good Luck Club" was officially established in February 1991, with An Dong as the legal person.
Just a month after opening, An and Yan suffered a marital crisis.
An Dong and a friend of Yan Qingyong had a marital affair, and then the two fell into a state of attacking each other.
The ownership of family property and clubs is the focus.
An Dong accused Yan Qingyong and others of siphoning out the club's liquidity, making the 800,000 yuan he invested into a bubble.
An Dong was accused of selling out all the furniture and jewelry in his home, which was proposed by Yan Qingyong.
Their article in the newspaper at that time accusing each other became the focus of ** and attracted a lot of attention.
Problems will always be solved, and the answer will be solved.
An Dong took Yan Qingyong to court, and the content of the accusation was only a lawsuit, and the process of the trial was unknown.
The two eventually reached an out-of-court settlement.
Whether or not this result is satisfactory for either side, it is better to reach an agreement than to be in a war of words every day.
Andong lost many opportunities to perform in China, so she was disheartened and decided to go to the United States.
Although Andong did not regain his reputation in the United States, he remained determined to pursue his ** career.
After his life was stable, Andong entered into marriage with an Arab.
After a failed marriage, Andong becomes more mature.
She has maintained a stable marital relationship and affection with her Arab husband.
During New Year's holidays or in her winter break, she would always fly back to China to visit her mother.
Due to the sharp drop in fame, An Dong's itinerary did not attract ** attention.
An Dong also likes this arrangement and feels comfortable.
An Dong's heart may not be able to bear the transition from his heyday to being ignored.
But the generation that still likes her wants her to live happily ever after, even after changing her lifestyle.
