Fei Yuqing was born in an ordinary family. His father is from Anhui and his mother is from Hunan, and for some reason fled to Taiwan to live. He was the third in his family, and his childhood life was not rich.
The parents' marriage soon broke down, making it even more difficult for the family, which was already not well-off.
In this context, Fei Yuqing's eldest sister Fei Yanqiong (stage name Fei Zhenya) has become the pillar of the family. At the age of 16, she began to work to make money, sang in the hotel at the age of 17, and was discovered by the senior management of China Television at the age of 18 to become a signed artist.
Fei Zhenya not only took on the burden of the family, but also had the dream of bringing her two younger brothers into the entertainment industry.
In 1977, under the influence of his sister, 22-year-old Fei Yuqing and his brother Zhang Yanming became artists on Chinese TV. Fei Yuqing's jade-like warm voice quickly attracted the attention of the famous musician Liu Jiachang.
Liu Jiachang has cultivated popular singers such as Teresa Teng and Feng Feifei, and he commented that Fei Yuqing has "the most beautiful voice in Taiwan" It is said that Fei Yuqing only sang two sentences when he tried to sing, and Liu Jiachang decided to keep him.
Under the careful guidance of Chinese music master Liu Jiachang, Fei Yuqing's singing career is thriving. Just three years after his debut, Fei Yuqing was shortlisted for the Best Male Singer Award at the Taiwan Golden Bell Awards and was selected as one of the top ten most popular singers at the Taiwan Golden Voice Awards.
In the following years, he won the Golden Bell Award for Best Male Singer twice, and his new songs "Dream Camel Bell" and "A Cut Plum" were even more popular, becoming classics in the Chinese music scene.
In addition to his performance in music creation, Fei Yuqing also has a good performance in the field of hosting. The ratings of the program "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" co-hosted by him and his brother Zhang Fei have soared, and the brothers also won the Golden Bell Award for Best Variety Presenter.
Surprisingly, Fei Yuqing, who is affectionate on the stage, shows a completely different side when hosting the show, he can often tell the jokes in a colorful and natural way, and even got the nickname of "Demon King".
Fei Yuqing, a teenager from an ordinary family, has become a superstar in the music industry and a variety show host through his own efforts, which can be called an inspirational legend. However, behind the success lies an unsatisfactory relationship experience and the foreshadowing of future family disputes.
When Fei Yuqing's career was booming, his love life seemed tortuous and sad. The encounter with the Japan girl Chie Yasui is amazing that it is the arrangement of fate. It is rumored that this relationship originated from a concert when Fei Yuqing sang affectionately on stage, while Chie Yasui reveled in it offstage.
This simple encounter between the singer and the audience planted the seeds for their future relationship. However, the reality is always cruel. After their engagement, the lovers' marriage was in a dilemma. It turned out that Chie Yasui's family had strict requirements for her son-in-law. They proposed to let Fei Yuqing get rich after marriage, and there were some seemingly harsh conditions.
Faced with these demands, Fei Yuqing fell into a painful struggle, and although he loved Yasui Chie deeply, these conditions were unacceptable to him.
Eventually, under the weight of reality, the sweet lovers decide to break up. The failure of this relationship seems to have cast a shadow on Fei Yuqing's psychology. Since then, his love life has been unusually low-key, and almost no one knows about his relationship dynamics.
Although there was an affair with Zhou Hui, but the final result was unsuccessful, Fei Yuqing has always remained single, as if he put all his enthusiasm into his career. Regarding marriage and love, he chose to be indifferent.
Fei Yuqing once said in an interview with Jin Xing: "I'm used to being alone, but I'm much more uncomfortable. Behind this sentence, is there his attachment and helplessness to that unfinished marriage? Or did the experience stop him from being enthusiastic about marriage as a form?
Regardless of the outcome, Fei Yuqing chose to live a life of solitude. He spends time with his pets and insists on his own independent lifestyle. This choice may have helped him find a sense of balance in his life when he was emotionally lost.
With the passage of time, Fei Yuqing's position in the music industry has become more and more stable. His gentle and delicate voice has conquered countless listeners and is deeply loved by the public. Only three years after his debut, he was shortlisted for the Best Male Singer Award at the Taiwan Golden Bell Awards and was selected as one of the top ten most popular singers at the Taiwan Golden Voice Awards, all of which is enough to prove Fei Yuqing's influence in the music industry.
However, when he had just reached the peak of his career, Fei Yuqing suddenly had the idea of retreating. In 2019, 64-year-old Fei Yuqing held a farewell concert in Taipei, which is not only a summary of his more than 40 years of acting career, but also a symbol of the official farewell of the Golden Voice Singer.
When the last note fell, Fei Yuqing bowed deeply to the audience, his eyes showing a little tiredness and relief. He said he longed to live a life of freedom. Behind this sentence, perhaps he is tired of Vanity Fair and yearns for a peaceful life.
Fei Yuqing's life after retirement suddenly disappeared from public view, and his fans still keep a very high level of attention to his news, and people are curious about what kind of life the former superstar is living now.
According to his friend Bai Bingbing, Fei Yuqing's retirement life is very simple, he does not like to travel, play mahjong or indulge in modern technology like others, his lifestyle is more inclined to get along with plants and small animals at home.
His cell phone is only used to make calls, and he spends most of his time enjoying the simple and quiet life of his home, and his daily activities are no different from those of many other retirees, except for tending to plants, raising small animals, and staying fit.
Bai Bingbing revealed that when Fei Yuqing missed his old friend, he would suddenly appear at the door of the other party's house and relive the old relationship with the other party. In addition, Bai Bingbing also said that Fei Yuqing's appearance has not changed much and he still keeps a low profile.
Fei Yuqing's lifestyle is as simple as ever, and he enjoys a quiet life alone. In this era of extreme dependence on the Internet, Fei Yuqing has chosen an indifferent lifestyle.
This kind of life may be the tranquility and freedom that Fei Yuqing has always pursued. In the hustle and bustle of the world, he finally found a habitat where he could sway himself and settle down.
From the glorious stage to the quietly departing behind the scenes, Fei Yuqing interpreted the meaning of life in his unique way, and also drew a successful end to his acting career.
In 2017, Fei Yuqing's father passed away, and the family was in trouble, triggering a series of embarrassing chain reactions. Fei Yuqing's sister Fei Zhenya has become a monk and has become a Master Hengshu, but she owes a huge debt because she guarantees others.
This incident was like a bombshell, blowing up the originally harmonious sibling relationship to pieces.
According to media reports, Zhang Fei has repeatedly said that he and Fei Yuqing have helped his sister overcome many financial difficulties in the past few decades, with a cumulative amount of up to NT$200 million (about more than 40 million yuan).
However, this time, neither brother seems willing to lend a hand again, Zhang Fei publicly stated that he and Fei Yuqing will not help his sister fill this debt hole again.
Gen Hengshu expressed his displeasure with his brother's "ruthlessness", and she complained bitterly on a television program. She stressed that it wasn't that her brothers weren't willing to help, but that she wasn't willing to accept their money.
Because she felt that Zhang Fei and Fei Yuqing's help had additional conditions, such as asking her to write an IOU, return the custom, and so on, Master Hengshu also clarified that the tens of millions of debts she owed due to the guarantee had been solved by foreign Shenhao friends.
Although the incident has been resolved, Master Hengshu's resentment towards Fei Yuqing has not been resolved. She publicly criticized: "Fei Yuqing is doing charity outside and seems to be generous, but he is very concerned about the eldest sister who once provided him with education and brought him into the industry." She also mentioned that Fei Yuqing never supported her charitable foundation, but she spent a lot of money on Zhang Fei's children.
Faced with her sister's accusations, Fei Yuqing chose to remain silent. He has never publicly responded to these disputes, as if he is using silence to interpret the philosophy of "the pure self-purifying". His long-time friend Fang Fang once revealed in an interview that Fei Yuqing would never attack others, but he would protect himself well.
This family turmoil shows the corrosive effect of money on family affection, and it also reflects Fei Yuqing's wisdom in handling things. He remained silent in the midst of the hustle and bustle, and stuck to his heart in the midst of strife, which may be his attitude towards life.
However, although Master Hengshu once vented his emotions through variety shows, he also said that he still loves his two younger brothers, which shows his cherishing of years of family affection, and also indicates that the three siblings may resolve conflicts through family affection.
After all the turmoil passed, Fei Yuqing's life returned to peace. According to his elder brother Zhang Fei, Fei Yuqing's life today is no different from that of an ordinary retired old man. He likes to take care of plants, take care of small animals, keep exercising, and enjoy quiet time alone.
Fei Yuqing likes to live a quiet life like now. Zhang Fei expressed some concern because his brother spends every day with his pet dog, and if the dog leaves one day, he will feel lonely.
However, Fei Yuqing seemed very calm, he said: "I can continue to raise" His answer was simple and clear, but it revealed his satisfaction with his present life and his calmness about the future.
Fei Yuqing has always maintained a simple lifestyle, and he has never been extravagant and wasteful. For example, he would sew up his worn pants and continue to wear them, and he was reluctant to change even razors and belts that had been used for six or seven years.
The tables and chairs in his home have been used for more than ten years, and he has not been willing to replace this kind of almost harsh frugality, which is in stark contrast to his former status as a superstar in the music industry.
In an interview, Fei Yuqing confessed: "I am used to living alone, because having one more person around makes me feel uncomfortable. This sentence best describes his current state of life.
There is no marriage to bind him, and no children to worry about him, so that he can devote himself to the cause he loves.
Although Fei Yuqing chose to live a single life, he did not feel lonely. Sometimes, he would suddenly appear at the door of his old friends and talk to them. Bai Bingbing said that Fei Yuqing's appearance has basically not changed, and he has always maintained a low-key style.
In this noisy world, Fei Yuqing interprets the true meaning of happiness in his own unique way. In his quiet later life, Fei Yuqing finally found his own peace.
No matter what the outside world says, Fei Yuqing has found the most suitable lifestyle for him. His life, like his singing, is clear and indifferent. Despite being in a bustling world, he was able to compose a unique music of life in his own way.
