"Debut is the peak", is it a comedy or a tragedy? Only the parties can best understand the bitterness, bitterness and sweetness.
Recently, Duan Linxi, the overall champion of the 2011 "Happy Girl", accepted an interview with the media and faced her current situation, she joked that "paste coffee has no right to speak."
It's been 10 years since she won the championship, and in the past 10 years, her bank account has been nearly 2 million deposits, and at the worst, the card was only 11.1 yuan. She has worked as a micro-merchant, sold beef and jadeite, and now she has returned to the entertainment industry to develop, participated in CCTV programs to get notice fees, and also opened a script killing shop with her good sisters who participated in "Happy Girl" together.
Counting the previous "SuperGirl" and "Fast Girl" champions, it seems that in addition to Li Yuchun, it is difficult to escape the "champion curse" of "debut is the peak".
In the 2011 edition of "Happy Girl", Duan Linxi did not have a champion appearance. She was able to finally win the championship title, which seemed to the outside world to be an unexpected "leak". The favourites for that championship were the most popular Liu Xin and Hong Chen, and Liu Xin played abnormally in the live broadcast on the night of the final, and lost the hand with the champion. According to the recollections of many viewers at that time, in order to prevent Hong Chen from winning the championship, Liu Xin's fans turned against Duan Linxi, who was not popular, and only then did there be a dramatic scene of Duan Linxi's upset and winning the championship.
As for the statement of "picking up the leakage champion", Duan Linxi believes that it is a "victory in the right place and time". "If you watched that final, you'll know I was the only one who didn't make a mistake that night."
After that, Duan Linxi showed a little unconfidence, she said, "Maybe I am really not suitable to be a fast female champion, I am not the kind of girl who can stand in front of tens of thousands of people very freely, but if you come to a livehouse with only a few dozen people and quietly listen to me singing, I can guarantee that I can take you down." ”
At the age of 21, he won the overall title of "Happy Girl", Duan Linxi said that it was like being hit by a cake falling from the sky. "I've tasted that sweetness, and then all sorts of sourness and bitterness hidden in the sweetness. Of course, I won't regret it all, it shaped who I am today. ”
The original "sweetness" is that a performance has an income of more than 100,000 yuan, can fly around every day, and can have four or five announcements a day when it is busiest. But after only two years, such a "championship dividend" was quickly worn out. Immediately after another accident in Duan Linxi's home, her mother and grandmother were hospitalized for a sudden heart attack, and she had to return to her hometown in Yunnan.
In fact, at that time, Duan Linxi also had unsolvable anxiety and difficulties in his heart, and choosing to return to Yunnan was also an escape method. In her hometown, she sold beef, jade, and taxis, and did things that had nothing to do with the "fast female champion".
In 2017, the "Strange Flower Conference" program team found Duan Linxi, and she told these pasts in the program, and there was a wave of heat. Looking back at that period, Duan Linxi realized that it was a window period when she was popular, and she should take advantage of the heat to make a song and make an appearance, and at that time, she was too panicked and too green to know what she could do. By the time she reacted, the window was closed.
But she decided to return to Beijing from Yunnan. When she first left Beijing, she had about 2 million yuan in savings, and when she went back again, she still had 11.1 yuan left in her card when she was most depressed.
There was a large wave of interviews that found her as the "fast female champion", and many probing and hostile questions made her feel resistant. She used the WeChat id and media docking when she was a micro-businesswoman, and played her own agent. Because agents can be tough, and "Duan Linxi" needs to be kind and kind.
Later, those questions that made her uncomfortable could not be deleted, so she also lay flat and ridiculed, and sometimes encountered some reporters who were twisted and did not dare to ask tricky questions, and she would directly give the answers that the other party wanted. She felt that it was just a kind of cooperation and doing each other's work.
Now Duan Linxi claims to be a "non-editorial employee of CCTV", and participating in CCTV programs and receiving notice fees is her main income. She said she made 80,000 yuan last month, but after removing the various costs of the maintenance team and paying the rent, her disposable income is about 10,000 yuan.
Now Duan Linxi's positioning of himself is an ordinary 30-year-old North Drift hitman. She lives in a house with a monthly rent of 3300 yuan in Beijing, mainly on the subway, and only checks the special express train and carpooling for taxis. She said, "The good thing is that it's really mushy enough that no one recognizes me." ”
Duan Linxi was also trying interviews for various drafts, but barely passed. "Today's talent show artists may have to cultivate singing and raping since junior high school, and veteran talent artists like me have long been outdated."
In addition to his work in the entertainment industry, Duan Linxi also co-opened a script killing shop with Yu Jiali and Jin Yinling, who participated in the "Fast Girl" together, called "Jili Duanjin", which means "sisters work together, and their profits are broken".
Talking about the popularity of the same "fast girl" Li Sidani, Duan Linxi said that she would have physiological jealousy, but she knew what Li Sidani had done for all this, "I think she deserves all this." ”
After the release of the report, the topic of #Fast Female Champion Duan Linxi's Current Situation was on Weibo's hot search on the 13th, and Duan Linxi posted that this was something she did not expect, but she already had a normal heart for her current life. "It's just that there's no traffic, no attention, no topic." But that doesn't stop me from chasing things I love, it doesn't stop me from loving life and staying professional. "She said that in the past few years, she has made herself practical and pragmatic, and no longer thinks about things that are vain and ambitious." To see who you want to compare with, you and the entertainment industry top stream comparison, unrealistic. Compared with your own poor state, you will be more pleased. Therefore, people still have to recognize reality and insist on dreaming. ”
Duan Linxi also analyzed the reasons for his "high driving and low walking", one is the problem of personal ability. "I know in my heart that my biggest shortcoming is that I am too mediocre, I can do a little bit, but I am not proficient in anything... I even made a mind map to see which path I should take, and found that there are artists who are better than me on each road. ”
The other is the factor of the market environment. In 2011, "Fast Girl" was called the most mushy one, and Duan Linxi said that it was "the fate of the times and the fate". "We are the seventh session of the fast male and fast women series, the 'seven-year itch', everyone has some aesthetic fatigue for us, coupled with the fact that "The Voice of China" came out in the same year, everyone's eyes are focused on them, and we disappear from the public vision at once."
In addition to the champions of the 2005 champion Li Yuchun, who can maintain long red, everyone else seems to be unable to escape the "champion curse" of "debut is the peak".
In 2004, the first "Super Girl" champion An Youqi was also in the spotlight after winning the championship. She has appeared in the hit single of "Hello, Jay Chou", released her own album, and cooperated with japanese and Korean record companies, but gradually lost her voice.
This year, she participated in "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves 2" and was the last sister to be finalized to "get on the boat". For this hard-won opportunity, she cried bitterly on the plane for two hours. However, unexpectedly, she made a serious mistake on the stage for the first time, forgetting the dance movements and letting the whole performance collapse.
After stepping down, An Youqi complained to herself, saying that she was the "least popular Supergirl champion". She said that in the 16 years since she won the championship, she has basically taken over commercial performances, which is "a place that looks like a stage but is not a stage", which has left her in a state of numbness. As a judge, Huang Xiaoming pointed out to the point that An Youqi was not worthy of the ability. "You are the ability of a successful person, but the mentality of a loser."
Shang Wenjie, the winner of the class of 2006,006, also experienced a long period of dormancy. During that time in 2008, she began to emulate LADY GAGA and appeared in front of the public in various exaggerated shapes. Later, Shang Wenjie took the initiative to admit that the "Thunder Man" at that time was only for his own layout, and only in this way could he increase his discussion. She later switched to electronic music and set up a brokerage company. It was not until she was recognized for her strength after participating in the "I Am a Singer" program in 2013 and serving as a judge of the 2013 "Happy Male Voice" that Shang Wenjie found her place in the show business circle.
In 2009, "Super Girl" was renamed "Happy Girl", and the subsequent development of the current champion Jiang Yingrong was not much stronger than That of Duan Linxi. She also participated in "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves 2" this year, although it is not like An Youqi's tragic "round trip", but she has not accumulated much sense of existence, and even ranked at the bottom of the vote of personal favorite ranking. Jiang Yingrong tweeted to herself, saying, "What is the meaning of a singer who is not loved by the audience?"
