How did Athena Chu finally marry such a man?

Not long ago, "Breaking through the Thorns" was broadcast. When countless people cheered for the participation of various childhood male gods, Athena Chu quietly sent a Weibo.

What do you mean, OMG?

Paul Wong immediately replied to her. I thought you had accepted her.

As soon as this statement came out, many people speculated that the couple had been itching for years. Did Paul Wong, a wife-drying madman, cheat?

In fact, Paul Wong's "she" refers to his musical instrument-guitar.

Speaking of it, Paul Wong's music is still the matchmaker between him and Athena Chu.

Beyond just became popular in Hong Kong in the 1990s.

One day, they came to Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts to perform.

At the same time, guitarist Paul Wong met a beautiful girl off the stage.

This girl is Athena Chu.

At that time, they didn't expect to meet again in the entertainment circle many years later and become neighbors.

Unexpectedly, they will hold hands and become lovers in love.

It turns out that fate has already been buried.

"You hit mom."

1983, Beyond won the championship in the "Mountain Guitar Competition" and officially debuted.

I don't think it is necessary for Lao Xu to waste more saliva on this Hong Kong-class rock band. Even if you are not Beyond fans, you have heard their songs to some extent.

Up to now, it is still a very representative band in Chinese music, which has influenced generation after generation.

Beyond's name comes from Deng Qianwei, who was in charge of playing the lead guitar in the band, meaning "beyond".

Beyond experienced several personnel changes in the years after its establishment.

Two years after Beyond was founded, Paul Wong joined the band and became the guitarist of the band.

Some people say that Paul Wong is one of the most unrestrained bands in Beyond, which may be due to his rebellion.

Paul Wong used to be an out-and-out bad student, and it was music that pulled him back to the right path.

When I was a child, Paul Wong's father was violent all the year round. He recalled: "You hit your mother, picked up a big kitchen knife and cut it down. At that time, our three brothers were only eight to ten years old. "

He also begged his father not to hit his mother, but in return, his father beat his mother even more cruelly.

Under such violence, the mother could not bear to divorce, and he and his two younger brothers lived with their father.

As the eldest son of the family, he took the responsibility of taking care of his younger brother after his mother left.

After waking up in bed every day, I can only see the money thrown on the table by my two brothers and father.

No one taught him how to do it, and everything was explored by himself.

He must do housework.

At that time, he was only 12 years old and still a child.

Under such pressure, he skipped classes all day and stayed at home and wandered around.

Finally, the school expelled him directly.

If he can't go to school, he will simply go home in three or four days and use "disappearance" to counter the pressure, as if he didn't exist if he didn't face it.

At this time, music saved him.

The depression in life was vented by him through music, and his dissatisfaction and anger were exported.

Instead of being away from home all day, he stayed in his room and played music all day. Sometimes besides eating and going to the toilet, he can stay indoors for two or three days.

His father became very worried after seeing this situation, and suggested that he go out for a walk more.

Paul Wong comforted him that he was fine, but he was hiding in his room and practicing his guitar.

Perhaps because of his inner depression, he especially likes rock music, and his personality is impulsive and straightforward.

In this way, music accompanied Paul Wong through year after year.

He not only likes music, but also is interested in painting.

College majoring in fine arts, occasionally helping people design posters.

1985, BeyondBeyond held the "Forever Waiting" concert in Hong Kong for the first time as an "underground band".

At that time, they didn't have a company. They had to do everything by themselves, from the previous preparations to the aftermath.

Even if they put up posters on the street themselves, naturally they have to find someone to do the poster design.

In this way, they asked Paul Wong to help design the poster.

The cover designed by Paul Wong.

At this time, it happened that Chen Shian, the original guitarist of the band, was preparing to go abroad, and the band was short of people.

Knowing that Paul Wong was proficient in guitar and joined other bands, they persuaded Paul Wong to stay and help.

Paul Wong agreed.

Finally, the performance was successfully staged.

Paul Wong was so nervous for the first time that he thought he was relaxed.

As a result, Ka Kui Wong said to him, "You can move."

Paul Wong complained that he was obviously moving.

As a result, he stood as stiff as a piece of wood when watching the video.

At that time, he still had long hair, his head was low, his face was completely blocked by his hair, and he couldn't move anything except playing the guitar.

Not many people will come to this concert, and only a few dozen people will come to the venue that can accommodate hundreds of people.

Beyond also invited many people from record companies to watch their performances, including Liu Zhuohui, who later became Beyond's royal lyricist.

Chen Jiantian and Liu Zhuohui, who later became Beyond's first agent, were good friends. They lived in his house, so Liu Zhuohui invited him to watch it together.

This is also the first time that Chen Jiantian got to know Beyond.

First lead singer

Among Beyond's songs, The Good Earth is undoubtedly classic and special, which is different from most songs sung by lead singer Ka Kui Wong. The singer of this song is Paul Wong.

1986 When making the EP (extended play) of Forever Waiting, when the agent listened to all the samples, Ka Kui Wong took out another sample and brought it to him.

After listening to it, Chen Jiantian thought this song was very good and had China characteristics.

The song in this demo is The Good Earth.

Although Ka Kui Wong had doubts and puzzles, he finally accepted Chen Jiantian's statement.

From 65438 to 0988, Beyond signed a contract with Xinyibao Records Company to release their third album "Secret Police".

It was also at this time that Chen Jiantian suddenly felt that it was time.

As a result, I chose ten songs, but I didn't find a sample of The Good Earth. Ka Kui Wong had long forgotten what the soundtrack of that song was.

This song is going to be silent

Who knows, when I was recording in the fast-forward shed, I found a demo of this song again. In a hurry, Ka Kui Wong didn't have time to write his own lyrics, so he sent the demo to Liu Zhuohui.

1986, Liu Zhuohui just won the first prize in a lyrics contest, and then he cooperated with a band in Chen Jiantian.

When Liu Zhuohui received the demo, it was actually a melody played by a guitar recorded by Ka Kui Wong with the word "Yangtze River" written on it.

Liu Zhuohui keenly felt that this song must be about the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.

It happened that Liu Zhuohui's uncle was a Kuomintang veteran who joined the army in the 1940s and left his hometown.

Later, after Chen's father searched in the newspaper, the family finally got together.

So with the story of his uncle as the background, Liu Zhuohui wrote the lyrics of The Good Earth.

As for why Paul Wong was chosen to sing, Ka Kui Wong advocated it.

At first, Paul Wong was very resistant and didn't want to sing.

"I play the guitar. Do not ask me to sing. Sing by yourself. "

But Ka Kui Wong insisted that he sing, and finally even "forced" him.

Ka Kui Wong advised him that you are just shooting a TV series now, and if there is a song as the lead singer, everyone will get to know each of us faster.

Ka Kui Wong tried to convince Paul Wong that this song is very suitable for you, believe me.

Finally, Paul Wong nodded in agreement.

In those days, Paul Wong filmed during the day until ten o'clock in the evening, and finally left the crew, turned his head and plunged into the recording studio.

Basically, everyone can only sleep for a few days and lose more than 20 kilograms in a few days.

Fortunately, the effect of the earth is surprisingly good.

Chen Jiantian, the agent, thinks that Paul Wong's voice is very new to the public, unlike Ka Kui Wong's, and this song is special enough.

1993, Beyond's soul and lead singer Ka Kui Wong had an accident while recording a program in Japan. He fell off the stage and died of a head injury.

In the ten years after his death, it took him several months to get back on his feet and continue to devote himself to music creation, inheriting his musical wishes.

Until 2005, Beyond three sons announced their formal dissolution after holding a farewell concert of Beyond The Story Live 2005.

Ye Shirong and Huang made their debut and continued their musical career.

No one should live like this.

Paul Wong insisted on other things besides music.

From 65438 to 0990, Ka Kui Wong went to New Guinea alone with Hong Kong TV, and this trip to Africa led to the establishment of the Beyond the Third World Fund.

The following year, Ka Kui Wong went to Africa again, and this time they were going to Kenya.

This trip to Africa is called transcendence, and everyone has a heartfelt feeling.

Ka Kui Wong said that we should go forward, look back at others and give them a hand.

Paul Wong has a similar feeling. He thinks it is possible to find many things that he thinks impossible when he arrives in Africa. It turned out that he had been kept in the dark.

Many years after Ka Kui Wong's death, Solo Paul Wong went to South Asia.

In August, 2007, Paul Wong went to Bangladesh with Mé decins Sans Frontiè res and became the cameraman of this team, showing the plight of the Rohingyas in Bangladesh.

Back to 15 years ago, about 200,000 Rohingyas fled to Bangladesh.

Here, they are forced to live like refugees, without enough food and water and without perfect medical facilities.

In this vast land of Africa, even living in a makeshift camp has become a silent struggle.

Later, Paul Wong wrote this passage in his photographic notes:

In an interview, Paul Wong recalled that refugees lived by the river and their houses were very shabby.

He once walked into a Rohingya house. There was nothing in it.

When he went, it happened that the family was having dinner together, and there were few dishes, so it was difficult to pack one of them.

Paul Wong doesn't look at what they eat, only know that it's fish.

It looks as big as half a palm.

Even if the conditions are tough, once there is more food, they will warmly invite Paul Wong to have dinner with them.

Natural disasters are unpredictable.

He later learned that within two weeks after he left Bangladesh, their house was directly washed away by the flood because of the heavy rain.

Luoxing people can only run to other places like houses washed away.

Struggle for survival

Nine out of ten families are incomplete, and they will die for various reasons.

Even if life is like this, they still maintain a sincere kindness.

What impressed him deeply was that once he climbed a tree for filming, and when he was about to come down, he looked down and was dumbfounded.

The bottom is full of pitted mud, so there is no place to waste it.

When he saw that the land next to him was green, his heart was happy and he jumped up as soon as he closed his eyes.

I regret it when I jump.

That green area is actually a cactus field.

Paul Wong was stabbed all over, afraid to move, for fear of being stabbed again.

As a result, to his surprise, the local children saw him fall into the cactus field and immediately went forward to open the cactus for him and pulled him out.

Seeing the scar on his body, they stuck out their tongues without thinking and helped him lick the wound.

Because children know that saliva can be disinfected.

Later, Paul Wong was afraid for a while. There are many infectious diseases in Africa. As refugees from Bangladesh, it goes without saying that they may also have AIDS.

But at that moment, the inner emotions overcame the fear.

Paul Wong didn't refuse their kindness.

"The feeling in my heart is that if I am really that sick, it doesn't matter."

Later, Paul Wong wrote this sentence in his notes-

"No one should live like this."

I'll never look at Athena Chu again.

Paul Wong always appears in front of people with a bad temper. Huang He is also said to be one of the more impulsive and irritable people.

Even he himself admits: "When people listen to my music, they will naturally think that I am a particularly grumpy and angry person."

However, a hundred steelmakers are always soft.

Such people will also show gentleness to others.

For Paul Wong, it was Athena Chu who turned him into a soft finger.

The acquaintance between Paul Wong and Athena Chu is quite dramatic.

When Athena Chu didn't know, Paul Wong was already impressed with her.

That year, Athena Chu was twenty years old, which was the time when Beyond had just become popular.

One day, Paul Wong went to the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts to perform and accidentally found a beautiful girl under the stage.

From then on, the girl's face was deeply remembered by him.

At that time, he didn't expect that fate would bring the girl to him again after many years.

A few years later, because of the renovation of the old house, Paul Wong moved to a new home and became a neighbor with Athena Chu.

One lives upstairs and the other lives downstairs.

In the entertainment circle, we naturally know each other more or less. Sometimes people greet each other when they meet: "I'm off work." "Goodbye."

In addition to say hello, Paul Wong never looked at Athena Chu again.

Later, Athena Chu asked him curiously, why does he always look at himself when everyone else is looking at her?

Paul Wong has just admitted that he has always been fond of Athena Chu, so he dare not look at her for fear that his eyes will betray him if he looks at her.

One day, Athena Chu found a dog in front of his house.

Unable to find the owner, she simply left the dog behind.

A few days later, she saw a dog-looking notice posted in the building. The owner of this dog turned out to be Paul Wong.

So she took the dog to Paul Wong, and they began to have further contact.

Later, Paul Wong lost his dog again.

Athena Chu was very anxious when he learned about it. He knocked on the door from door to door and asked the residents if they had seen the lost dog.

At that time, Paul Wong felt that Athena Chu was a considerate and kind girl, and he liked her even more.

So get along for a period of time, Paul Wong had to move out because of work, and he could never see Athena Chu again.

He was afraid of missing her like this, so he summoned up his courage and invited Athena Chu to the dog show.

Athena Chu agreed.

Unexpectedly, the paparazzi caught this date red-handed, and Paul Wong immediately admitted that he really liked Athena Chu.

He was also interviewed by the company because of this confession, and he was very depressed. You know, this is the first date.

Perhaps Paul Wong's sincerity and courage moved Athena Chu, who nodded in agreement with his pursuit.

The two quickly established a relationship.

20 12 April, Athena Chu and Paul Wong, who have been in love for more than ten years, published good news on the Internet.

Tell everyone that they have the crystallization of love.

After Athena Chu got pregnant, Paul Wong completely changed the pace of her life.

He said, "I can't leave her alone at home all day ... she has ups and downs and wants someone to scold her." If I don't scold her, who will scold her? "

10, Athena Chu gave birth to his daughter oriole, and then formally went through the marriage formalities.

Double happiness is coming.

Because of the influence of a Chinese Odyssey, many people will feel the same regret as Xia Zi Fairy and Supreme Treasure in the play, and hope that Athena Chu and Stephen Chow can get together.

But reality is reality, and movies are movies.

Fairy Xia Zi's lover is the supreme treasure, but Athena Chu's incomparable hero is Paul Wong.

This relationship was not taken seriously by the outside world from the beginning. With such a well-known ex-boyfriend, Paul Wong seems to be much inferior.

Even when they got married, there was media ridicule, saying that Athena Chu married poor Paul and satirizing Paul Wong for having no money.

However, it is never just looking at these external things, but the inner perception of the game is the most real.

Brigitte Lin once asked Athena Chu, You and Paul Wong look like people from two different worlds. How did you get together?

Athena Chu said, "He never hides his feelings. He is a very straightforward person. People outside think he's rock, but he's not that type. He has been focusing on me. "

Athena Chu once had a song called "Washing Machine", and Paul Wong silently wrote a song called "Washing Powder", taking the opportunity to express his confession to Athena Chu.

Paul Wong said that she has a different definition of romance (you don't have to let the other person know).

His love is like fire under an iceberg. Maybe you can't see it, but you can definitely feel it.

He made Athena Chu proud.

Paul Wong once said to his own dynamics:

Who can say that he is not good enough for Athena Chu?
