In 1972, in an ordinary military camp, the young Yan Weiwen met his future wife, Liu Weixing, for the first time. Both of them are PLA soldiers, and under the strict discipline of the troops, they can only restrain their inner throbbing and convey each other's good feelings with their eyes.
Yan Weiwen often secretly looked at Liu Weixing, secretly looking forward to the day when he could hold her hand openly. However, Yan Weiwen has another dream burning in his heart - a love for music.
He knew that to make this dream a reality, he would have to put in more effort. Day after day, Yan Weiwen practiced singing hard after training, and finally ushered in a turning point in his life. After hard preparation, he was successfully admitted to the General Political Song and Dance Troupe, taking a solid step towards his musical ideals.
On the day he stepped on the train to Beijing, Yan Weiwen's mood was both excited and complicated. He is about to chase his dream, but it also means parting ways with Liu Weixing. Looking at the passing scenery outside the car window, Yan Weiwen secretly made up his mind: he must achieve something on the road of music, live up to his dreams, and live up to Liu Weixing's waiting.
In Beijing, Yan Weiwen is like a fish in water. His loud and powerful voice perfectly interprets the pride and ambition of a soldier. From "March of the Chinese People's Liberation Army" to "Battle Song of the Strong Army", Yan Weiwen sang the iron bones of the soldiers with one popular military song after another, and also sang into the hearts of countless audiences.
In 1982, after ten years of waiting, Yan Weiwen and Liu Weixing finally entered the palace of marriage hand in hand. This long-awaited military lover has a happy smile on their faces.
Yan Weiwen held Liu Weixing's hand tightly, his eyes were full of tenderness, as if to say: All the waiting is worth it. Married life is as wonderful as a song. Yan Weiwen's career is thriving, and his influence in the music industry is expanding day by day.
Liu Weixing also came to Beijing to work as he wished, and the two could finally get along day and night. Whenever Yan Weiwen performed on stage, Liu Weixing always sat under the stage, looking at her husband with gratifying eyes.
Their love is as moving as Yan Weiwen's singing. However, fate always seems to like to put obstacles in the way of a happy life. Just as Yan Weiwen had a bumper harvest in his career and love, a thunderbolt broke the peaceful life of the couple.
Liu Weixing was diagnosed with breast cancer. The moment he learned the news, Yan Weiwen felt that the sky was about to fall. He hugged his wife tightly, his voice choked but firm: "Don't be afraid, let's face it together."
No matter what happens, I will be there for you. Since then, Yan Weiwen has become Liu Weixing's strongest backing. Despite his busy schedule, he always finds time to spend with his wife as much as possible.
During the long treatment process, Yan Weiwen did not leave an inch. During the pain of chemotherapy and the torment of surgery, he was by Liu Weixing's side, soothing his wife's heart with gentle singing, and supporting her to continue fighting with firm commitments.
The fight against the disease has lasted for more than 30 years. Under Yan Weiwen's careful care and encouragement, Liu Weixing faced every treatment strongly, and her condition gradually improved, and she was basically cured in the end.
In these long years, Yan Weiwen is not only a successful singer, but also a conscientious husband. He interpreted the marriage vow of "never leaving" with practical actions.
In 2018, a sudden turmoil swept the entertainment industry. Zhu Jun, a well-known CCTV host, was sued in court by a female college student named Xianzi, accusing him of "workplace harassment".
This news was like a bombshell, causing an uproar on the Internet, and Zhu Jun's reputation accumulated over the years faced a severe test in an instant. The cause of the incident dates back to 2014.
According to Xianzi's statement, the incident took place in a dressing room. At that time, as an intern, she was preparing to interview Zhu Jun. Xianzi claimed that in the dressing room, where there were only two people, Zhu Jun had misbehaved with her.
However, just as the situation was about to get out of control, Yan Weiwen suddenly appeared, inadvertently preventing the incident from happening, allowing Xianzi to get out. This accusation undoubtedly dealt a devastating blow to Zhu Jun's career and reputation.
As a "pillar of CCTV", he had to temporarily withdraw from public view and be investigated. However, the truth is not so simple. As an upright soldier and a respected artist, Yan Weiwen is well aware of the seriousness of the matter.
He did not hesitate to step up and promptly issue his alibi. Yan Weiwen's eyes were firm and his tone was calm, he said: "I have the responsibility to restore the truth and not let false remarks hurt innocent people."
Yan Weiwen's testimony became a key piece of evidence in the case. He made it clear that he was not present at the scene at the time of the incident. This statement forcefully refutes some of Xianzi's statements and provides important clues for the investigation of the truth of the case.
Yan Weiwen's words and deeds not only reflect the integrity and courage of a soldier, but also show the sense of social responsibility of an artist. Instead of choosing silence, he stepped forward and spoke up for the truth.
This behavior has earned the respect and approval of the public. After a lengthy judicial process, Zhu Jun finally cleared his grievances and returned to the public eye. This result shows that justice may be late, but it will never be absent.
Yan Weiwen, on the other hand, uses his own actions to interpret what is an artist of "virtue and art". He not only sang a loud military song on the stage, but also played the role of a guardian of justice in real life, showing the social responsibility that a public figure should have.
After experiencing the turmoil of Zhu Jun's case, Yan Weiwen thought that his life could finally return to peace. However, as a public figure, his every move is always in the spotlight and can attract attention and discussion at any time.
Just when Yan Weiwen breathed a sigh of relief, an unexpected storm of public opinion pushed him to the forefront again. It happened a few months ago, Yan Weiwen attended a rehearsal at the National Center for the Performing Arts.
This is a normal work routine, but it has sparked controversy because of a photo that has been circulated on the Internet. In the photo, 66-year-old Yan Weiwen is wearing a seemingly ordinary black sweatshirt.
However, sharp-eyed netizens soon discovered that the value of this sweatshirt was more than 7,000 yuan. This discovery was like a bombshell, quickly detonating on the Internet. Some people began to accuse Yan Weiwen of "showing off his wealth" and questioned why an old artist who had sung military songs all his life wore such expensive clothes.
For a while, "Yan Weiwen showing off his wealth" became a hot topic, and various comments poured in. In the face of such accusations, Yan Weiwen seemed a little helpless. He frowned and sighed softly: "I just wore something that I felt comfortable, I didn't expect it to cause such a big reaction."
Although these words were not officially released to the public, they truly reflected his inner confusion. However, the voice of reason soon emerged. Many people speak out for Yan Weiwen, believing that what artists wear is personal freedom and should not be over-interpreted.
They called on the public to be rational and not to label people lightly. Supporters stressed that attention should be paid to Mr. Yan's contributions to military culture over the years, rather than blaming him for his private life.
This incident made people see that the life of a famous artist is not as easy as imagined. Their every move is under the public eye, and the slightest carelessness can lead to controversy.
But at the same time, it is also a test of the artist's ability to deal with things. In the face of this public opinion turmoil, Yan Weiwen chose to deal with it in a low-key manner. He did not respond to these criticisms publicly, but continued to focus on his work and artistic creation.
This attitude has also won the respect of many people, who think that Yan Weiwen shows the bearing that a mature artist should have. This incident reminds us that in today's world where information is disseminated so rapidly, a crisis in the image of public figures can occur at any time.
How to properly handle public relations while maintaining oneself has become a topic that every famous artist needs to face. Despite all kinds of turmoil, the 66-year-old Yan Weiwen still maintains his true character as a soldier.
The baptism of the years did not take away his passion, but made his image fuller. Whenever he stands on the stage, his straight waist and resolute eyes all show the temperament of a soldier.
His loud singing voice, as if traveling through time and space, can still arouse the patriotic feelings in the hearts of the audience. Yan Weiwen often said: "My whole life has been singing the spirit of the military. It's not just my profession, it's my calling.
This persistence has allowed him to go further and more steadily on the road of art. From "March of the Chinese People's Liberation Army" to "Battle Song of the Strong Army", Yan Weiwen sang the iron bones of the soldiers with one popular military song after another, and also sang into the hearts of countless audiences.
In family life, Yan Weiwen's responsibility and responsibility have also won the respect of everyone. He has spent more than 30 years with his wife fighting cancer, and has interpreted what true love is with practical actions.
This unswerving attitude is not only reflected in his married life, but also in his persistent pursuit of career. In the face of the recent controversy caused by wearing a high-priced sweatshirt, Yan Weiwen chose to remain silent.
He understands that as a public figure, his words and deeds will be noticed. But he also firmly believes that as long as you have a clear conscience, you don't need to care about the gossip of others. This attitude towards things stems from the military temperament in his bones - neither humble nor arrogant, consistent.
In the Zhu Jun case, Yan Weiwen stepped forward and issued an alibi in a timely manner, showing the responsibility of an upright soldier. He did not choose to protect himself, but contributed his own strength to restore the truth.
This kind of behavior not only reflects his sense of justice, but also shows the sense of social responsibility that a mature artist should have. Yan Weiwen's experience tells us that it is not easy to become an artist who is both virtuous and artistic.
It requires a constant pursuit of excellence in art and a constant nobility in character. And Yan Weiwen undoubtedly did this. He is not only an excellent singer, but also a public figure with a sense of responsibility and responsibility.
From the barracks to the stage, from the family to the society, Yan Weiwen has always maintained the true character of a soldier. He used his actions to interpret what "virtue and art" are, and also set an example for future generations of artists.
Despite occasional controversies, Yan Weiwen still continues to sing the spirit of the military and convey positive energy in his unique way. This may be the charm of a 66-year-old artist - the original intention has not changed, and the true colors are still the same.
