can share pain but not happiness, this is probably the true portrayal of the black duck combination.
was unknown when he debuted, but after he became famous, he went to court with Bo Gong.
In the face of profit and money, everything in the past is empty talk.
More than 40 years later, what about today's Black Duck group?
In 1984, when Chinese pop music was still in its infancy, three girls with musical dreams - Xu Xiuxia, Lu Lili and Yin Shuzhan came together.
They came from the same conservatory and formed the original Black Duck group because of their shared love of music.
However, fate always likes to joke. The group had just started when it suffered its first blow: Yoon Shuzhan quit after moving to Singapore.
Just when Xu Xiuxia and Lu Lili were panicking, the god of fate favored them again - Li Rong, who graduated from the Central Conservatory of Music, joined the group. This seemingly ordinary personnel change has injected new vitality into the Black Duck group.
1992 was a turning point for the Black Ducks. They followed Gu Jianfen, known as the "godmother of music", to perform in Hong Kong.
On a stage in a foreign country, the Black Duck group conquered the audience with their heavenly harmony and became famous in one fell swoop. Since then, their names have resounded in the music scene at home and abroad, and have become a banner of Chinese pop music.
After becoming famous, the career of the Black Duck group is booming. Their debut album "Black Duck" sold more than 500,000 copies, creating a musical miracle at the time.
As representatives of Chinese pop singers, they participated in the "Sino-Japanese Friendship Song Party" and conquered the Japanese audience with their beautiful singing. He also won the "Chinese Pop Music Review" Achievement Award and the "Best Actor Group Award".
The MV of the Black Duck Group was even broadcast on CCTV for a week, which was rare at the time.
However, just when everyone thought that the Black Duck group would go all the way, Lu Lili left the group because she went abroad to settle down, which brought a lot of impact to the group.
In order to fill the vacancy, Gao Ying and Yang Man joined as substitutes. However, the one who really replaced Lu Lili's position was Guo Qi from the Music Department of Jilin University of the Arts.
The addition of Guo Qi has injected new vitality into the group. On the surface, it looks glamorous, but in fact, there is an undercurrent surging inside the group.
In particular, the contradiction between Guo Qi and Xu Xiuxia is like a time bomb that may detonate at any time. is the so-called "fighting in the same room", two people with incompatible personalities get along day and night, and the contradiction naturally deepens day and night.
In this case, Li Rong became a peacemaker in a dilemma. She tries to mediate, hoping to maintain the harmony of the group. Unexpectedly, it made Xu Xiuxia feel isolated and betrayed. In the end, Xu Xiuxia, who had been resentful for a long time, chose to leave.
Since then, the Black Duck Combination has been divided into two: Xu Xiuxia set up another portal and formed the Xu's Black Duck Combination; Li Rong continued to lead the original team and became the Lee Black Duck group.
In order to compete for the "orthodox" status, Xu Xiuxia quickly registered the trademark of the Black Duck Group. When she learned that the Li's Black Duck Group was preparing to participate in the Spring Festival Gala, Xu Xiuxia did not hesitate to file a lawsuit on the grounds of infringement. In the end, in order to avoid trouble, the program team canceled the performance of the Black Duck group.
Since then, the two versions of the Black Duck combination have been caught in an endless battle between the open and the dark. In this internal conflict, they have missed too many opportunities for development, and the world of the music industry has already undergone earth-shaking changes.

The split of the group also had an impact on the personal development of each member. Xu Xiuxia later devoted herself to music education, contributing to the cultivation of a new generation of musicians.
Li Rong tried the path of solo singer, although she did not reach the height of the group period, but still maintained a certain influence in the music circle.
Some of the other members have transitioned behind the scenes, and some have left the music industry, each choosing a different path in life.
Looking back at the story of the Black Ducks, we can't help but ask: what caused this once-glorious group to fall apart in the end? Perhaps, the answer lies in the dispute over the distribution of interests. When money and fame transcend the pure love of music, contradictions are inevitable.
This can't help but remind people of another long-lasting combination - Phoenix Legend, one of the secrets of their success is the reasonable distribution of benefits and the persistence of team spirit.
Linghua and Zeng Yi have encouraged each other for many years and made progress together, so that there is a Phoenix legend today, from kindergarten children to dying elders, there are their fans.
Income is divided into five accounts, there is never a conflict over money, there are too few people like them, and how many combinations are finally disbanded for this reason.
Today, the once-glorious Black Duck Combo is a thing of the past. Both versions of the combination have faded out of the public eye, and the fans who once fanatically followed them have grown up with new idols.
Maybe one afternoon, when the familiar harmonies come to the radio, we still can't help but hum along, reminiscing about that era full of passion and dreams.
