In this new spring festival full of festive atmosphere, a former screen beauty stepped into the blue sky of Shangyuan Village, Yangxi County, Yangjiang City, Guangdong. Although the face in the sun bears the traces of time, it is still difficult to hide the demeanor of the year.
She is Yuan Jieyi, who once became famous in the entertainment industry with a crown of Miss Asia, and now despite the traces of time, she still plays one role after another in TVB dramas.
Today, however, she stands on this rural stage, no longer facing the bright spotlights and discerning audiences in front of the screen, but the villagers who sit around the humble stage.
There wasn't much excitement on their faces, and they even looked a little indifferent. For the villagers of Shangyuan Village, it should have been an exciting thing to see a real star at the Spring Festival Gala, but this time, things did not seem to be what they expected.
Kitty Yuen was the only celebrity guest of the evening, and her performance included three songs – "On the Sunny Road" by Lai Ruien, "Bless You" with a strong sense of Chinese New Year, and the Cantonese classic "Winning with Hands". In addition to singing, she interspersed some interaction and conversation, and the full performance lasted 19 minutes.
A few years ago, Yuan Jieyi's commercial performance fee was about 2It is about 40,000 yuan, and now, the broker has a price tag of 30,000 yuan. Although such a salary is not high among Hong Kong stars, her performance does not seem to be recognized by the audience. Netizens have a bad evaluation of her performance, what is the reason?
First of all, it's her singing. Yuan Jieyi, who used to have infinite scenery in front of the stage, has now suffered from netizens' complaints about her singing skills, her tone frequently goes out of tune, and her tone is broken again and again, especially when singing "Sunny Road" and "Victory with Hands", the voice is described as "a voice pinched by the devil".
Secondly, there is what she wears. In the eyes of netizens, Yuan Jieyi's popular and alternative style clothes are regarded as too old-fashioned and inconsistent with her age and identity. Although she is well-maintained, smooth, and still in shape, her outfit is difficult to gain everyone's appreciation.
Some people believe that these problems may be related to the quality of the sound equipment at the scene, but according to witnesses at the scene, the sound facilities are not bad. In fact, Yuan Jieyi herself also knows that her singing skills are no longer excellent, she has already revealed this to the audience before the performance, she said: "I am definitely not good enough to sing as a singer, but when I come here, I am open-minded, because of your support, I believe it should be ok ......."”
However, even though she has given the audience a preventive shot, when she made a slip of the tongue when singing "Victory Hands Create", her laughter also greatly reduced her professionalism. She did not immediately correct the wrong lyrics after singing them, but stopped to explain to the audience that she had sung the wrong language, an act that was considered unprofessional by the audience.
Yuan Jieyi has also traveled to the countryside many times before, although her acting career has been ups and downs, she still insists on performing on various stages, whether it is a large-scale event or a small birthday banquet, she has no complaints. In September last year, she even sang at a village birthday banquet in Hunan, bringing birthday wishes to a 90-year-old.
In an interview, Yuan Jieyi said calmly: "I am just 'eating mixed rice', doing everything, doing everything ......This may show that she has long accepted reality as an ordinary actor and no longer pursues the glory of the past.
This former Asian sister is now singing at a party in the countryside, although her performance is not satisfactory, her professional attitude and courage are worthy of praise. Her story provokes us to think deeplyIn the colorful world of the entertainment industry, what does an actor's vitality come from? Is it that short-lived glory, or is it constant self-challenge and transcendence?
Yuan Jieyi's performance may not have met everyone's expectations, but her persistence and courageous attitude towards reality show us another side of an entertainer's life. At this seemingly ordinary Spring Festival Gala, she brought joy to the villagers, and also brought us a deep reflection on perseverance and courage.
In this story, we not only see the current situation of a star's life after the halo fades, but also see a person's attitude towards life and persistence in dreams.
Perhaps, in each of our lives, there will be moments similar to Yuan Jieyi, in the face of challenges and imperfections, can we maintain a positive attitude like her, bravely accept our own shortcomings, and continue to strive to improve ourselves and surpass ourselves?
Everyone's life is a long-distance race, we can fall and we may lose our way, but what matters is whether we choose to get back on our feet and keep going.
Yuen's story also reminds us that no matter what difficulties we encounter, we should never give up on our dreams and pursuits. The years are boundless, and there is always a part of each of our lives that shines, just like Yuan Jieyi's every persistence and attempt on the stage. #tvb#
