In 2005, Hunan Satellite Television and Tian Entertainment Media launched the "Supergirl", which is the second season of the program, and with the previous year's pavement, this session of the heat is unprecedented.
It's no exaggeration to say that "05 Supergirl" is a miracle in the history of the talent show, and the oldest and oldest of the children were all involved in this super feast.
In the days when there was no list and no superlatives, every vote for an idol was a fan vote with a dollar a text message.
Supergirl has been held four times before and after, why only 05 can make miracles.
First, the spirit of the program.
At the time, the whole of China was affected by the impact of Japanese and Korean entertainment culture, and young people were in dire need of a spiritual support to fulfill their dreams.
The flagship of Supergirls was "Sing if you want to sing", regardless of age or appearance, as long as you have a dream of making music, you can stand on the stage.
In the audition stage, there were a lot of "embarrassing" scenes, but for the contestants, as long as they exuded self-confidence, they realized the value.
Second, it redefined personality.
"05 Supergirl" has produced a number of unisex contestants with short hair, such as Li Yuchun and Zhou Penchang, who broke the traditional aesthetics and redefined the image of women.
The emergence of women, who have been repressed for years, is a symbol of the rise of feminism.
Second, the publicity is in place.
This year's Supergirl brought in popular singers like Ke Yimin and Hei Nan as judges.
At the same time, the program also joined forces with entertainment companies and brands, pioneering the publicity of the program.
The combination of timing, location, and people made "05 Supergirl" so popular that it overshadowed "04 Supergirl" and even changed the direction of the Chinese music scene.
Seventeen years later, looking at the country's hot "05 super girl", some people stood to the top of the pyramid, some people played a handful of good cards to the broken, in fact, the fate of a long time to bury the ambush.
In 2005, Lee received nearly 3.53 million votes and was crowned the winner.
That year, she was 21 years old, green, introverted, and had not yet graduated from college.
Neutral style, dynamic voice, sharp dance, even He Gui said:
A popular entertainment produced by the "pop", like a bright fireworks, brilliant, but easy to fleeting.
But Lee's development over the years is clear to see.
It's no exaggeration to say that among all the "super girls", she has tapped into her greatest potential and opened up the widest world.
She can sing and write songs, she can be an ambassador for local culture, she can stand on the international stage, she can be grounded, she can handle elegance and fashion, she can dance beautifully and she can interpret the role of the bottom.
Li Yuchun is like a piece of playdough, how to pinch can be molded.
What's more, she has no scandals and has always been clean, making her a model of positive energy.
From the desperate singer to the status of top artist, Lee did three things right.
The first thing: Staying sober.
When ordinary people are wrapped up in great fame and fortune, they are prone to drifting towards the sky, forgetting their beginnings, and having their eyes on the sky.
But Li Yuchun is sober, soberly aware of what he wants, soberly cognizant of the fact that the popularity is nothing but a floating cloud.
In 2007, Yang Lan asked Li Yu Chun on the program "Women in the World":
Li Yu Chun replied:
With this sobriety, she can be down to earth to do music.
After the talent show, the company arranged intensive activities and commercial performances, squeezing all of Li's time.
Between 2006 and 2007, Lee was busy with the "WhyMe" concerts and working on an album with Taihe Maitian.
The albums "Queens and Dreams" and "Mine" sold like hotcakes and earned Lee many awards.
But by relying on the packaging of the record company, there was always a lack of Lee's own flavor.
Starting in 2008, Lee took her heart back to music, and independently planned "Teenage China", which fits the spirit of the Olympics and passes on the spirit of teenagers.
At the same time, Lee added youthful or Chinese style features to the songs, which strengthened the memory point of the songs.
With masterpieces that are not flashy or pretentious, she has laid a solid foundation for her star.
The second thing: stay in character.
Li Yuchun is a neutral style in the circle, this style in the face of a lot of controversy at the time, some people say that she "male not male, female not female", and others say that she brought bad social culture.
At one point in the concert, someone tried to insult her by shouting "Chun!
But Li never backed down, she always insisted on her own, dry short hair, full of power clothing, time and again to challenge the traditional aesthetic.
Lee's distinctive features have given her a point of differentiation and memory in the entertainment world.
What's even more remarkable about her is that she came out of the fashion style on the road of neutrality and became the favorite of major brands.
Nowadays, Lee has become the face of female power.
Third thing: stay aggressive.
Outside of music, Lee has continued to broaden her horizons, with notable achievements in film and television.
From "October Siege" and "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" to "Blood Drops" and "Like a Dream", she has shown us her infinite possibilities.
Fashion circle, music circle, film and television circle, Li Yuchun have a piece of heaven and earth, and create their own brand, complete the commercial value, but also created the "super girl" myth.
Back in the day, Lee's strongest rival was Zhou Penchang, and both of them had neutral styles, and their singing skills were on par with each other.
In the end, Zhou was the runner-up by a narrow margin.
Unsurprisingly, Zhou's curiosity is now similar to that of Li Yuchun's, but 17 years later, Zhou and Li are already in two different lives.
Zhou penchang can not be top stream, is her choice, but also her destiny.
On the stage of Supergirl, Zhou Penchang once said:
Just want to focus on music, this alone, doomed Zhou Penchang can not be a big hit.
It is important to realize that after the competition, Li opened the tour, participated in various commercial activities, consolidated popularity.
These may not have been Lee's original intentions, but she did what she was told and reaped the benefits of national popularity.
But Zhou was not willing to compromise, and Tian Entertainment Media created a song for her called "Notes", which was highly rumored but not what she wanted.
When Zhou realized that her plans clashed with the company's claims, she simply terminated her contract, and even the astronomical termination fee she faced couldn't stop her determination to leave.
That year, she was 20 years old, in the prime of her youth, rebellious and misbehaving, and didn't understand how big the price behind it was.
A fledgling newcomer, the company made you red, but you will revenge, which let Zhou Penchang into the first public opinion vortex.
After the breakup of the contract, Zhou Penchang signed a contract with Leylin Culture, wanting to do music purely, the album "Who moved my strings" sold millions of copies, and a variety of music awards to get soft, but in the new company's achievements are limited to this.
Chou Pen-chang was so naive that she continued to do what she was doing, refusing endorsements, events, and anything that didn't have to do with music.
Any company that promotes an artist has to realize the value of commercialization, and once again, Zhou's stubbornness runs counter to the company's philosophy.
Two years later, Zhou Penchang and Leylin Culture parted ways, missing out on the golden age of development.
Later, Zhou signed with Gold Typhoon and released three albums, which were not bad musically, but were poorly received by the market.
Zhou pen-chang in the art of high requirements, do not care to create "mouth song", more do not care to cater to the audience, which led to her high degree of popularity of the song is not much.
She used to be unable to see "Notes", which is still a hit on all platforms today.
In addition to her personality being out of step with the entertainment industry, Zhou is also limited by her appearance.
The same neutral style, Li Yuchun tall, three-dimensional face, can handle a variety of shapes, but Zhou Penchang's square and round face, easy to let people and "earthy" "blunt" associated together.
Therefore, in the road of fashion, Zhou Penchang can not go.
Regarding her personal style, Zhou was lost, and at one point, she tried to be feminine, with long hair, high heels, and tights.
Such a look, not only and Zhou Penchang's own temperament is contrary to, but also lost the characteristics.
Zhou Penchang realized the short board of her appearance, so she fine-tuned it, and made her once square face angular, coupled with slimming and shaping, the overall temperament lifted a ladder.
Coupled with clothing that blends neutrality and gentleness, her fashion sense came out.
In the past few years, Zhou Penchang has been active in the variety stage, bringing her own musical strength, and humor and real personality, which is very popular.
After more than a decade of stumbling, Zhou finally realized that she had to do something that had nothing to do with music in order to capture the market and traffic.
Zhou Penchang has changed, become mellow, know how to compromise, this is a good thing, it shows that she is no longer the little girl covered in thorns, she has matured, metamorphosis.
This kind of Zhou Penchang, on the contrary, more a few points of lovely and atmosphere, her future will be more and more good.
Zhang Liangying doesn't go for the neutral style, but she still couldn't hide her light in that 2005 rave.
Her looks aren't outstanding, but she has two unsurpassed labels: dolphin sounds and English songs.
She was born with a great voice and was rewarded by God.
Having been admitted to the College of Foreign Languages at Sichuan University, she excelled in English, paving the way for her later international career.
In contrast to Zhou Penchang's rocky journey, Zhang Liangying's journey to the top has been fast and precise.
The first step is to play to your strengths.
Zhang Liangying's voice is very good, can be strong or soft, can be high-pitched or low, in the interpretation of the lyrics of the song is delicate and vivid, so that the audience has a full sense of immersion.
After Zhang Liangying's debut, almost every year, there will be songs with a high degree of popularity.
For example, 2006's "If Love Goes On" and 2007's "We Say Yes", in Zhang's love songs, you can feel the ultimate loneliness and despondency, and every time you listen to them, it's as if you've experienced a love affair with her.
Zhang Liangying is not good at creating, but she is good at interpreting.
The second step: singing movie and TV songs.
There are many singers who sing lyrical songs, and there is no shortage of Zhang Liangying.
There are many singers who sing lyrical songs, and there is no shortage of them.
As long as a movie or TV show is popular, the ending songs and title songs will naturally follow.
In 2008, Zhou Xun and Chen Kun starred in the highly publicized "Painted Skin", and Zhang Liangying sang the theme song Painted Heart", which had more than 100 million downloads on the Internet, making Zhang Liangying a name for herself.
In 2009, the movie Mulan was released, and Zhang sang the interlude song Mulan's Heart.
Nowadays, singing for movie and TV dramas is still a piece of cake for Zhang Liangying. Her unique singing voice, which can be elegant or majestic or tender, is suitable for movie and TV dramas with various themes.
The third step: to enter the international stage.
If just singing love songs is not enough to make Zhang Liangying irreplaceable in the Chinese music world, she still has an ace up her sleeve in English.
There aren't many Chinese singers on the international stage, and Coco Lee is one, but she grew up in the US, and English is her mother tongue.
It's not that simple for Zhang to break into the international scene, but she's still delivering dazzling results.
She was the first Chinese singer to sing the global theme song of a Hollywood blockbuster, and she was the first to appear on Oprah's talk show;
She walked the Cannes red carpet, attended the Grammy's, was interviewed by New York Magazine, and performed on the Vicky's stage.
Regardless of how well-known Zhang Liangying is abroad, having been on the international stage, her overall image has become elevated.
Zhang Liangying has risen through the ranks in her career, only to be blindsided in her relationship.
And Feng Ke more than ten years of entanglement, is her body only fell on the topic of people.
Fortunately, she woke up in time and turned the car around.
But without Feng Ke, Zhang Liangying's musical journey would have been a different story.
Compared to the previous three, He Jie's flow was a bit weaker back then, but she still had a power that could not be underestimated.
With "quiet as a virgin, moving like a rabbit" to describe her is apt, a small body, quiet when sweet and lovely, if you sing and dance, she has a sense of wildness in her bones, some people say she is another Coco Lee.
In addition, He Jie's voice is recognizable, hot when she sings European and American songs, and straight from the heart when she sings lyrical songs.
Among the super girls, He Jie's plasticity is very strong, and in the Chinese music industry, where there is a scarcity of singers and dancers, she can get a share of the pie.
Tian Entertainment Media also saw the potential in He Jie's body, and after the competition, all kinds of resources were tilted.
Also specifically for her to create an idol drama "beautiful decibel", for her to do with Jia Nailiang and Li Yuchun, the song "you must be happy" red across the country.
With great fame and fortune wrapped around her, He Jie let herself go.
First, the fall scandal.
In those two years, He Jie was always falling, falling on the red carpet, falling on the side of the road, falling at the airport.
The public has accused He Jie of hype and eyeballs, I did not expect that she is not at all afraid of, directly responded, "I will continue to fall until you notice my music."
I want my music to be seen by more people, which is the demand of every singer, but with this bottomless method, it will only defeat the audience edge.
And then there's the endless scandal.
Before marrying He Ziming, He Jie's scandalous boyfriends ranged from "Happy Boys" contestant Jin Can, Guo Jingming to Shi Xiaolong.
While the "Supergirl Top 3" were desperately trying to release their albums, He Jie was too busy combing through all these complicated personal lives to think about music.
A few albums were released, but the response was mediocre.
When the idol persona is shaky, fans won't pay for your music.
And then, a marriage of gold and jade.
In 2013, when He Jie and He Ziming got married, they showed love and happiness, and instantly became the happiest people in the "05 Super Girls".
After the wedding, He Jie gave birth to a son and a daughter, and was too busy to focus on music as a mother.
If He Jie and He Ziming had been so happy, He Jie wouldn't have had to go through all that trouble.
It's just a shame that the lovebirds revealed each other in 2016, tearing each other apart to the point where they could only end up with a divorce.
As a single mom wounded by love, He Jie gained a lot of sympathy points for what was supposed to be a second career opportunity, and once again she dropped the ball.
Finally, the marriage with Diao Lei
He Jie cried on the program "never get married again" while giving birth to three children with Diao Lei.
By now, He Jie's popularity was basically gone.
The "super girl" has accumulated a lot of hardcore fans, and they can only hate He Jie with a vengeance.
Later, He Jie couldn't control his own body, and couldn't control his career, so he could only reduce his own price to a commercial performance.
Occasionally appearing in the variety show, she could not pick up the cards scattered all over the ground.
Also having a rebellious and unruly side, Zhou is keeping her heart and refining her music, while He Jie is letting herself go and fighting the world with a relationship.
If she can live as Xiao Yaxuan is no excuse, but it is the eye of the man in general, and desperate to make children, and finally into the land of the endless.
Remembering the "super girl" He Jie, it's like a lifetime ago.
However, it's hard for her to get back on her feet again, so perhaps becoming a mother and a wife is another way to get ahead of the game.
Ji Minjia is a loyal contestant on Supergirl, which she joined in 2004, but only finished fourth in Chengdu.
She was so dissatisfied with her ranking that she said on the spot, "A talent show is a beauty contest.
In 2005, Ji Minjia once again appeared on the stage of Supergirl, and sang Phoenix Legend's "Above the Moon", winning the fifth place in the country.
Ji Minjia's vocals are good, thick and explosive, and she has built up her popularity entirely through her strengths, and at the time, Xu Jinglei also helped her pull votes.
But then, Ji Minjia was lost in the crowd until she disappeared from the public eye.
To summarize, there are three reasons for Ji Minjia's high start and low finish.
First: no character.
Compared to the previous four, Ji Minjia lacked her own identity.
Although she sang well, her bold style was not mainstream at the time.
On appearance, ordinary looks and temperament, no difference.
Second: no songwriting ability.
After the end of the show, Ji Minjia came out with a cover album "beautiful", which included "Heaven", "Mongolian" and other musical works, cover sung and sung, no creative ability, it is difficult to get out of a starry road.
Third: no resources.
Based on the above two points, Tian Entertainment Media did not sign Ji Minjia, but the judge Hei Nan signed her, but unfortunately, out of the album, acting in the movie, did not let Ji Minjia stand firm.
When Li Yuchun, Zhou Penchang, Zhang Liangying and He Jie swept the Chinese music scene, there was no place for Ji Minjia.
Now Ji Minjia has changed her name to "Ji Dandi", and her appearance has changed so much that she has been questioned about plastic surgery.
In 2017, Ji Minjia got married and had a child, entering a new phase of her life.
17 years have passed, and then look at the 05 session of the "Supergirl" of the national top five, when standing in the same starting line of the little girl, now the fate is very different.
Li Yuchun, Zhou Penchang and Zhang Liangying, living up to expectations, seize the opportunity, with their own efforts and strength to put together a bright star.
Today, they are still the mainstay of the Chinese music industry.
The most unfortunate thing is He Jie, a good hand of cards played to a sparse, once hot singer, eventually dragged down by feelings.
And Ji Minjia high start low, down to the road, everything seems to be destiny.
