Biography
After a comeback in 1998, He Xi officially changed his name from He Hongwei to He Xi. He (Xi) took the pun "今夕何夕" (Pinyin jīnxī hé xī, Tonight: He Xi) from the Etsujin Song (Chinese 越人歌, Pinyin yuè rén gē) as basis and argued it better fits him wondering about the eternal flow of time (顺带抒发自己面对时间这个永恒命题时的迷惑).[3]
