In 2007, Andy Lau attended the New year's Concert in Hong Kong.
Hua Tsai incarnated as the "Cowherd" and performed a mournful love stage play with his partner.
After the performance, Andy Lau half-jokingly asked the fans off the stage if they wanted to know the king's wife.
After receiving enthusiastic feedback from fans, Liu Dehua pointed to the woman who came to the stage with a lift behind her and officially announced to thousands of fans:
This is his partner on the stage, Lai Wenhui.
Since then, the name Lai Wenhui has appeared in the public eye, but how can she be favored by Andy Lau?
In fact, Lai Wenhui had been with Andy Lau for ten years at that time.
01
Can become a professional dancer, and therefore go to Andy Lau's side, only dance for him.
In fact, it comes from Lai Wenhui's parents' desire for her daughter to become a Phoenix.
When she was a child, Lai Wen-hui didn't like dancing at all, because she had to control her diet, press her legs, lower her waist, get up early to practice, and injuries were even more common.
When friends of the same age were playing carefree and wanton outside, Lai Wenhui could only sweat in the training room and practice until she had a backache.
But even so, Lai Wenhui did not dare to defy her powerful mother and could only repeat her hard training day after day.
Even her dance teacher says that Lai Wenhui has a good figure and is a natural dancer.
Lai Wenhui saw Liu Dehua on TV until the Spring Festival Gala in 1995.
On the stage of the Spring Festival Gala that year, Liu Dehua played and sang a song "forget Love Water" affectionately. Lai Wenhui was deeply attracted by the young and handsome Liu Dehua on the TV.
Looking at the dancers dancing around Andy Lau, Lai Wenhui was particularly envious.
She thought to herself, if only one day she could stand next to Andy Lau and dance.
Since then, walking to Andy Lau's side has become Lai Wenhui's only pursuit. She changed her attitude of practicing dance before and began to fall in love with dance in her heart.
The training that she thought was boring and boring also became lively, because with a dream, the training time of a few hours a day seemed short.
In order to realize her dream as soon as possible, Lai Wenhui worked harder and harder than ordinary people. Others finished their training at five or six o'clock, but she had to practice an extra two or three hours every day until she was exhausted.
Fortunately, all the hard work was worth it. Lai Wenhui jumped all the way from the small stage to the big stage.

As the saying goes, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. To stand beside Andy Lau, in the words of Lai Wenhui, it is a complete mistake.
At an Andy Lau concert tour, the scheduled dancers could not continue to participate in the follow-up performance due to physical reasons, which worried the staff.
You know, the concert has been rehearsed many times.
All the actors are in a fixed position, and none of them are indispensable. As the concert will begin in a few days, where are we going to find a ready-made actor?
Coincidentally, this concert of Andy Lau happened to be held in the city where Lai Wenhui is located.
When Lai Wenhui's teacher learned that Andy Lau was looking for a dancer, she pushed Lai Wenhui in front of the staff without saying a word.
The 16-year-old Lai Wenhui saw for the first time in reality the idol who was determined to dance with him on TV a few years ago, and naturally she was so nervous that she didn't know what to do.
The careful Liu Dehua sensed the nervousness of the little girl, poured her a glass of water with concern and told her to finish it carefully.
In the next rehearsal, Lai Wenhui put all her thoughts into the dance moves, memorized the main points of the movements only once, and excellently completed her first cooperation with the idol.
After the concert, Liu Dehua was deeply impressed by Lai Wenhui's professionalism and conscientiousness. He threw an olive branch to Lai Wenhui and invited Lai Wenhui to join his team.
Seeing that she was only a step away from her dream, Lai Wenhui shook her head gently.
In her opinion, her dance level is not exquisite enough, not qualified to stand beside Andy Lau.
In this regard, Andy Lau did not retain too much, but made an appointment with Lai Wenhui. when she was successful in her studies, his team always reserved a place for her.
For this agreement, Lai Wenhui trained even harder and was admitted to Hong Kong's famous dance academy a year later.
A year later, will Andy Lau still remember the little girl who danced at his concert?

At that time, Lai Wenhui went to the scene of Andy Lau's concert as an audience and silently stared at the shining idol on the stage from the perspective of the audience.
Unexpectedly, in the venue of tens of thousands of spectators, Andy Lau recognized her at a glance.
Greeting her with a smile, Lai Wenhui's heart jumped to her throat. She didn't expect that Liu Dehua, who only met once, remembered herself.
After the concert, Andy Lau asked the staff to keep Lai Wenhui and extended an invitation to her again. This time, Lai Wenhui did not refuse.
Finally realized her childhood dream, Lai Wenhui did not dare to slack off, except on stage performance, the rest of the time she locked herself in the rehearsal hall hard training, so ignored her boyfriend.
Her boyfriend accused her of excluding everyone for the sake of Andy Lau and dancing.
Lai Wenhui felt deeply guilty, but she was reluctant to give up either side of her beloved career on the one hand and her lover on the other.
But she really couldn't do both. After a painful struggle, Lai Wenhui finally broke up with her boyfriend and never fell in love again.
Lai Wenhui danced with Andy Lau for ten years.
It was not until Andy Lau announced her identity to fans in a high-profile concert scene that Lai Wenhui's name was known to more and more fans and audiences.
On the stage, she is the glittering protagonist around Hua Zai.
In life, however, she is well aware of the sense of boundary and never borrows Andy Lau's prestige to make a profit for herself.
Even if other companies tried to poach her for ten times their pay, Lai Wen-hui only said:
"as long as Andy Lau needs me, I will always jump beside him. The terms he has given me are already very good. Even if there is no reward, I am willing to follow him until I grow old."
This passage has been over-interpreted by the media, and some people say that Lai Wenhui may have been the king's sister-in-law in private.
But in 2009, Andy Lau publicly announced that he had registered to marry Zhu Liqian as early as a year ago, and everyone knew that Lai Wenhui was really just a dance partner.
Some media interviewed Lai Wenhui, trying to induce her to admit that she had special feelings for Andy Lau.
She smiled softly: "I love him, who can not?"
In a word, I talked about the relationship between myself and Andy Lau.
Write at the end:
Today, Lai Wenhui has been around Andy Lau for 25 years, and she is 41 years old, no longer young, but still alone.
In the eyes of outsiders, Lai Wenhui chose to be single because she loved Andy Lau too much.
Lai Wenhui did not respond to this, but just stood beside him and danced as usual, just like she first met many years ago.
For the unmarried situation, Lai Wenhui is not alone.
She has her dance, her career, her dream.
Be able to realize your dream and dance beside your idol, isn't this the highest state of chasing stars?
