On the evening of September 22, the "Rising Moon in the Bay Area" Greater Bay Area Film and Music Gala was held in Macao.
The party was brilliant and grand, attracting a lot of big names:
Jackie Chan, Zhang Yi, Xiao Zhan, Olympic champions...
But the most shocking thing is Leehom Wang's appearance.
He first sang "Heaven and Earth Dragon Scales" and "Great China" with the stars, and then sang "Our Song" solo.
This also means that he, who once fell to the altar due to a divorce turmoil, has officially returned.
Leehom Wang fans cried with joy: It's not easy, I'm finally waiting for you!
still remembers that 3 years ago, as soon as Wang Leehom was announced as the spokesperson of a brand, his ex-wife Li Lianglei came out to accuse him of cheating in marriage, cold violence and chaos in his private life, which made the former "king of Chinese music" fall into a trough.
Overnight, Leehom Wang fell from a "high-quality idol" sought after by the whole people to a "rat crossing the street" that everyone shouted and beaten.
In those difficult days, Leehom Wang did not give up and has been silently waiting for the opportunity.
As the dust of the divorce lawsuit settled, Wang Leehom finally won the victory, and only then did he return to the stage this time.
This comeback means the end of the three-year turmoil, and it also makes people think:
Did Leehom Wang make a mistake?
He and Li Lianglei have been pregnant with three children in 5 years, why did they come to an irreparable end?
In 1976, Wang Leehom was born in Rochester, New York, United States, and his ancestral home is Zhejiang.
His family background is deep and he has a certain influence in the political and business circles.
Still, while attending school in the United States, Wang was discriminated against because of his Asian face.
After being isolated, Wang Leehom could only hide in the corner alone and listen to songs, jazz, rock, folk...
As a result of learning musical instruments since he was a child, coupled with his interest, he became proficient in piano and guitar in the sixth grade of primary school.
And those classmates who avoided him saw that he played a good musical instrument and admired him very much, so they took the initiative to make friends with him.
At the age of 13, Wang Leehom went from being discriminated against to being a man of the school.
It was also this year that he fell in love with a female classmate at school and wrote his first song for her.
The girl felt that this was a romantic episode only in the TV series, and agreed to Wang Leehom's confession without hesitation.
Later, Leehom Wang used "unforgettable" to describe his first love.
"Maybe that's why I have such a deep affection for music, and it was she who brought me into the field of music."
After that, music became his best tool to express his feelings and love.
Leehom Wang's second relationship happened during college.
At the age of 18, Wang Leehom was successfully admitted to Williams College.
In one Chinese class, he fell in love with a very beautiful Chinese-American mixed-race child.
This girl is called Miss Bai by him, and the two have a deep relationship from freshman year to college graduation.
Later, Wang Leehom went to Taiwan to develop, and the two started a long-distance relationship mode.
In 1995, Leehom Wang officially debuted and released his first album "Beethoven".
Miss Bai is the heroine of this album.
In 1998, Wang Leehom gained attention with his album "Revolution and Rotation", and won the Best Chinese Male Singer Award and the Best Record Producer Award at the 10th Taiwan Golden Melody Awards in 1999.
In this way, Wang Leehom became popular.
At that time, the media called him, along with Nicholas Tse, Eason Chan, and Chen Xiaodong, who were in the limelight, as the "Asian Four Tigers in the Chinese music scene".
The career is going well, but there are many problems emotionally.
Miss Bai, who was far away in a foreign country, was fed up with the life of a foreign country, so she protested:
Music and me, I can only choose one.
Even though he was reluctant, Wang Leehom still chose his career.
Later, Miss Bai married someone else, and Leehom Wang specially wrote a song "Forever love" for her as a wedding gift.
In the MV, when the bride snuggled next to the groom, Wang Leehom was lonely playing and singing next to him, and the strong contrast was embarrassing.
After breaking up with Miss Bai, Leehom Wang had a lot of scandals, but he never admitted any relationship positively.
His rumored girlfriend is so numerous that he can make a list of them.
In 2000, he wrote "Love, Never Disappear" to Zhang Huimei, and the two regarded each other as musical confidants.
At the same time, Wang Leehom released the album "Forever First Day", and won the "Asian Golden Melody Award for Best Male Singer" in Malaysia with this independently produced album.
Among them, he adapted from his cousin Li Jianfu's "Descendants of the Dragon", which has received countless praises.
In this way, Wang Leehom became popular all over the country.
In 2001, he and Zhang Huimei were photographed hugging sweetly on the side of the road after a party with friends.
Zhang Huimei's neighbor even broke the news, saying that he had seen Wang Leehom go in and out of Zhang Huimei's house many times, and the sister-brother relationship between the two who was 4 years old was suspected of being a positive result.
And Wang Leehom was also photographed by the paparazzi appearing in Zhang Huimei's mansion, but neither party admitted this relationship.
In 2005, Leehom Wang released "Heroes of the World", which included many hit songs such as "Kiss Goodbye", "Big City Little Love", "Flower Field Wrong", "In the Plum Side" and many other hits.
And this time, it was the actress Shu Qi of the same age who sparked with Wang Leehom.
It is reported that Wang Leehom mainly invited Shu Qi to be the heroine of the MV of the single "First Morning".
The two have all kinds of ambiguities in the MV, and they are suspected of fake plays.
Soon, some netizens exposed that Leehom Wang and Shu Qi were choosing rings in Tokyo, and the two were extremely intimate, like a couple.
When Shu Qi saw being photographed, he was annoyed and angry, and scolded the photographer.
But some media photographed Wang Leehom entering and leaving Shu Qi's house, and he could vaguely see through the window that the two were in close contact.
However, in the face of these reports on the Internet, both of them were killed and denied it.
"Career-oriented, no love" and other rhetoric simply responded to a few sentences, and the story of the two naturally ended without a problem.
After that, Wang Leehom and Xiao Yaxuan had an affair again.
At that time, Xiao Yaxuan called Wang Leehom his ideal type, and it only took 20 minutes to like him.
When Wang Leehom and Selina sang the song "You Are a Song in My Heart", the two also flirted in public, which was extremely ambiguous.
And then there is Tang Wei.
When starring in the movie "Lust and Caution" directed by Ang Lee, Wang Leehom and Tang Wei had an affair.
At the press conference, Wang Leehom was courteous to Tang Wei, and the two flirted and discharged each other.
In an interview, he also directly admitted:
"I have a feeling of love for Tang both in and out of the play."
The two also took a set of erotic photos for the promotion of "Lust and Caution", which made people blush and heartbeat, and the atmosphere was full.
But for some reason, Tang Wei didn't respond from beginning to end.
Coincidentally, at that moment, Leehom Wang suddenly fell into the controversy of the intimate group photo of the "man".
Wang Leehom, who was busy explaining his sexual orientation, missed it with Tang Wei like this.
In 2012, Wang Leehom, who was still entangled in a "same-sex" scandal, was suddenly photographed with young model Lin Xiaoyun.
The media broke the news that Wang Leehom took the initiative to drive Lin Xiaoyun home.
The two also spent 12 hours together at home, including when the woman returned home the next day, and her clothes did not change.
Subsequently, Lin Xiaoyun responded, saying that Wang Leehom did send her home.
As for the two staying in the same room in the middle of the night, it was because it was too late, so for the sake of safety, they stayed to sleep, but the two were not boyfriend and girlfriend.
In the end, Lin Xiaoyun didn't forget to add that the two did not sleep in the same room.
Just when the scandal was flying, Wang Leehom blew himself up.
In November 2013, Wang Leehom and Li Lianglei made their relationship public on Weibo.
Wang Leehom said: "I am lucky to have met a girl who can hold hands and spend the future together. ”
Li Lianglei, a graduate student of Colombia University, is 10 years younger than Wang Leehom.
The two families have known each other for a long time, and they know each other well.
As soon as this news came out, it caused a sensation in the entire entertainment industry.
Since then, Li Lianglei has received unprecedented attention, and her life has changed.
After marriage, Li Lianglei gave birth to three children in 5 years, which makes people have to admire that this couple can really give birth.
Wang Leehom, who has been holding a wife for 5 years, did not snub his career.
During this time, he received honorary doctorates from Williams College and Berklee College of Music, respectively, and also won the "Best Actor at the Macau Film Festival".
Li Lianglei is trying to be a good mother.
Compared with other "sisters-in-law", she appears intellectual, low-key, and plainly dressed.
What's even more surprising is that Li Lianglei even wanted to change her surname to her husband, and it was found that the name on her passport had become "Wang Lianglei".
Moreover, Li Lianglei often posts sweet photos of her family on the Internet, which makes countless netizens sigh:
The second brother and Li Lianglei are really a model couple in the entertainment industry!
However, their marriage is not as happy as it seems.
At the end of 2021, Leehom Wang officially announced his divorce without warning.
He also said that despite living apart, they will always be a family.
But Li Lianglei didn't want to be a "family" with him.
Two days later, Li Lianglei published a "small essay" of more than 5,000 words, accusing Wang Leehom of cheating in marriage, openly summoning ji, eating with men and women, multi-person sports, etc...
No matter which one of them, it seems to be extremely explosive and ruinous.
As soon as this hammer came out, Leehom Wang's image plummeted.
Netizens have criticized Wang Leehom, and the former "high-quality idol" has become a "street rat" that everyone shouts and beats overnight.
Major brands have terminated their contracts with it, and their acting careers have also suffered heavy losses.
In the face of his ex-wife's fierce offensive, Wang Leehom tried his best to maintain his reputation.
In the end, the two went to court and started a lawsuit.
This lawsuit is the foundation of Leehom Wang's turnaround.
In the most important divorce lawsuit, the United States court ruled that Wang Leehom "divorced without fault".
Because Li Lianglei did not submit any evidence to the judge about his faults such as cheating, soliciting prostitution, and transferring property.
Li Lianglei, who said aggressively that she had evidence, didn't come up with anything in the end.
This made the expressions of those who supported her sneer, and made Leehom Wang's fans applaud and cheer.
said that Wang Leehom is good at everything, but he won't find a wife.
But some people think it's strange.
Looking back at Leehom Wang's old love history, it can be said to be very rich.
Some people say that Li Lianglei did not submit evidence, which does not mean that some things do not exist.
Others say that the two may have reached some kind of consensus and settled the matter through negotiation.
I saw a sentence on the Internet:
"It's not that Leehom Wang won the lawsuit, but Li Lianglei chose to let him go."
But this rumor has not been confirmed, and only they themselves know what the truth is.
In the blink of an eye, 3 years have passed since Leehom Wang's divorce.
Recently, there have been many people who say that Wang Leehom has been wronged, but I don't think that's the case.
Wang Leehom may not be as unbearable as Li Lianglei said, but he is definitely not so innocent.
There are still many people who feel that Leehom Wang's return this time and his return to the peak is just around the corner.
But I think it's still quite hanging.
Even if everyone knows that he won the lawsuit with his ex-wife, his ex-wife's small composition is still deeply imprinted in everyone's minds.
His god-like high-quality idol filter shattered to the ground and became no longer perfect.
When idols are no longer perfect, it is difficult to have the resources of the past.
Let's take this Bay Area Rising Moon Gala as an example, in fact, there is not much discussion about him.
The public's attention is on the new generation of artists, such as Xiao Zhan and Shan Yichun.
It's still quite touching.
Leehom Wang's musical talent is absolutely undoubted.
But maybe he shouldn't get married.
has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and finally found a highly educated spouse.
He thought it was the perfect ending, but it backfired.
Marriage is really the best exposure to complex human nature.
It will uncover the imperfections in each person, either adapt or perish.
In fact, the essence of marriage is to take what you need and fulfill each other.
It's like you run a company together, how to cooperate, how to win-win, how to run this company well, instead of relying on emotion, it is better to rely on reason.
Quarrels, violence and divorce are very easy things for two adults, some choose to raise their children alone, and some choose to play life.
In the end, it is the child who bears everything.
When the child grows up in the future, the side of the game life will have to bear the bitterness of the child and his own incompatibility.
Therefore, the essence of marriage is not love, but contractual.
When you stop complaining and stop trying to change the other person, you start to wake up in the world.
Think more about your own life, think more about how to make yourself comfortable in this relationship, and others will not feel uncomfortable, at this time, you will really understand what marriage is.
