Tzu Wei (紫薇) (13 November 1930 - 4 March 1989), real name Hu Yi-heng (胡以衡), a native of Nanjing, was a famous Taiwanese singer, one of the stars of Taiwan TV's ‘Group Star Club’, and was known as the ‘Evergreen Queen of Songs’.She was diagnosed with cancer in 1987, and passed away on 4 March 1989....
Rise Tzu We loved to sing since she was a child, and in high school she performed in a restaurant and on the radio in Nanjing. 26 March 1953, Wei participated in the first live radio programme in Taiwan, Minben Radio's ‘Jazz’, and sang ‘The Night Comes to Fragrance’. Ziwei was married at the time, with a youngest daughter who had just turned 40 days old and two children; her husband was a professional soldier with a limited income of NT$190 per month. With her husband's support, she wanted to make more money to support her family and was hired to perform on the radio station, thus officially entering the singing industry.
In 1958, Ziwei joined the China Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), which was then the largest producer of national public and private radio programmes, without accepting the bidding of the five major private radio stations (Minben Radio, Minsheng Radio, Zhengsheng Radio, Huasheng Radio and Fengming Radio). This led to a collective boycott by Taiwan's private radio stations of songs sung by Tzu We.
In 1958, Mingfeng Records published Tzu Wei's song ‘Green Island Serenade’, which was recorded by CBC, with lyrics by Pan Yingjie and music by Zhou Lamping, but it did not become a hit right away. 1961 saw the launch of CBC's first live variety show, ‘Weekend with You’, which was hosted by Tzu Wei, and was broadcast live so that the audience could see the hosts through the glass windows, and the first day of the broadcast was very well received by the visitors. Because of her low education level, Tzu We worked hard to enrich herself and received more than 4,000 letters from listeners every week, and the programme was a big hit with the audience. When the programme was going well, there were objections within CBC to having a singer with mediocre academic qualifications hosting the programme. Wei Jingmeng, Director of the Information Bureau of the Executive Yuan at the time, stepped forward, arguing that Ziwei's talent was outstanding, the audience's response was enthusiastic, and her education had nothing to do with her ability, so she was allowed to keep the hosting job.
In 1961, Liao Qianyuan, the owner of Four Seas Records, spent a huge sum of money to record ‘Reminiscence’, which was sung by Tzu Wei, written by Yang Zhengwu, and composed by Zhou Lanping, as the main song of the record, and as the designated song for the singing contest of the CGC Radio Station, the song was played all day long and created a frenzy, which made Tzu Wei's voice popular all over the world. In the same year, Tzu Wei released Green Island Serenade, which established Ziwei's status in the singing industry. From https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%B4%AB%E8%96%87_(%E6%AD%8C%E6%89%8B)
