Chapter 423 422. Great Wang Qian! I will give myself to you, are you willing to accept it? (Subscribe)
actually!
On a global scale.
Among the three singles performed by Wang Qian last week, Someone Like You is more popular! This can be seen in the latest sales data charts of various countries and regions released by the download platform.
Someone like you won the sales championship in most markets around the world, winning the sales championship in more than 30 countries and regions in total, while dont cry only won the sales championship in most countries in North and South America, and most other countries and regions ranked second.
However, just in North America, "Don't Cry" is the undisputed best-selling song in North America, and its sales exceed those of "Someone Like You" by tens of millions.
So in terms of total sales, don't cry is the champion, but overall it is not much higher than someone like you.
This data shows that someone like you has a wider audience around the world.
There are many videos on YouTube that cover this song and make people cry. It is also widely used as background music in various short videos, and its number of views exceeds that of "don't cry".
Thousands of Wang Qian's fans gathered at the scene, most of whom were of course from Los Angeles, but there were also many from all over North America and even all over the world.
Those who can gather here in the middle of winter are definitely loyal fans.
As soon as they saw Wang Qian interacting with them at the window, many people couldn't help but sing Wang Qian's lyrics.
Instinctively...
blurt out.
It's the lyrics of someone like you.
"never mind, I'll find someone like you..."
After someone started, thousands of people immediately joined in the chorus, and they could recite the lyrics skillfully.
Some people couldn't help crying when they sang this line.
Because this line of lyrics is so touching.
Many people who have been in love and broken up will think of certain people because of this line of lyrics.
In the crowd! Li Qingyao waved her hands and sang along with everyone. Tears couldn't help but flow down her cheeks, soaking her mask. Her voice was filled with sorrowful cries: "I wish nothing, but the best for you...too..."
When Li Qingyao first heard this song live, she was not so moved.
Because her English level was not very high, she did not quite understand the meaning of the lyrics at that time. She was just moved by the emotions expressed by Wang Qian when he sang.
However, after she went back, she kept listening to the song and carefully looked up the meaning of the lyrics, and she instantly understood it.
as if……
Wang Qian's song was sung for her.
Isn’t she Wang Qian’s ex?
Aren’t every word of this song meant for her?
Never mind, I'll find someone like you...
(It doesn’t matter, I will find someone like you…) I wish nothing, but the best for you too…
"I just ask for your best wishes..."
These lyrics were like thorns piercing Li Qingyao's heart! Her mind was full of the moments she had spent with Wang Qian in the past. Although they had spent very little time together eight years before they got married, it was also very beautiful.
These days, she has been listening to this song most of the time. She can't help crying when she listens to it. Her eyes are already red and swollen, but the pain and regret in her heart cannot be relieved.
Yu Jingruo had been with her all the time, fearing that she would do something stupid. At this moment, he was standing beside Li Qingyao, putting his arm around Li Qingyao's shoulders, singing the lyrics along with Li Qingyao. In fact, he was quite envious of Li Qingyao in his heart.
Because, Yu Jingruo also felt that this song might be written by Wang Qian for Li Qingyao! After all, she was one of the people who knew Wang Qian very well, and knew that Wang Qian really only had Li Qingyao for these years, and had no other exes.
"Qingyao, think positively, there is still a long way to go!"
Yu Jingruo whispered something comforting in Li Qingyao's ear.
“Wuwuwu…”
Li Qingyao squatted down with her hands covering her face. She couldn't sing anymore and started to cry loudly.
She became even sadder when she heard Yu Jingruo say that there was still a long way to go.
The road ahead is so long, how long will she have to endure this pain? Let her find a replacement later? Li Qingyao didn't even think about it.
I once had someone like Wang Qian.
Who else could she look at? There was no room for anyone else in her heart.
Many foreigners around were attracted by Li Qingyao's crying. Without any surprise, they made some space and continued to sing the lyrics.
They are no longer surprised by the scene of people crying while singing this song.
Many people around also shed tears.
It’s just not as exaggerated as Li Qingyao.
Yu Jingruo also squatted down and hugged Li Qingyao, and didn't say anything else, fearing that his words would continue to irritate Li Qingyao.
only……
Yu Jingruo looked at the slowly moving car through the crowd's analysis, and there was a trace of sadness in his usually calm eyes - he was now at the top of the world, could he still see his old classmate? Could he still remember that he was willing to give everything for him?
…
Among the crowd near the venue, a group of Chinese gathered together, including middle-aged and elderly people as well as young people. Several of the young people waved excitedly at the car that Wang Qian was riding in among the crowd.
There were two young women who looked 70% similar and had classical oriental beauty, like twins. They were the most conspicuous. They stood on tiptoe and waved vigorously in the direction of Wang Qian, while softly singing the lyrics of the song with the people around them.
The few Chinese people around him looked at the crazy European and American fans around them, as well as the media reporters who were frantically blocking Wang Qian's vehicle in front, and they all looked emotional.
The middle-aged man in the lead said softly, "I never thought that a Chinese musician could cause such a sensation in Europe and America."
A young man said, "Professor Tang, you don't pay attention to pop music, so you don't understand! Professor Wang's songs have conquered the entire European and American music scene. The sales of the three singles this week are close to 600 million, which once again broke Professor Wang's own record and once again beat the most powerful queen of the European and American music scene, Christine."
The middle-aged man in the lead was Tang Wenqing, a professor of Chinese Music Department of the Central Conservatory of Music who had rushed over from China, and the young man was his student.
The other few people were from Moyin and Zhejiang Conservatory of Music. The three schools met together, so they stayed in the same hotel and came to the scene together.
I saw such a lively and sensational scene.
Tang Wenqing looked at the two sisters who were waving and singing the most enthusiastically in the front, and asked in a low voice: "Professor Zhang, are these two sisters Xu Wenwen and Xu Xiaoxiao? Old Xu's precious granddaughters?"
Professor Zhang, the professor leading the group at Zhejiang Conservatory of Music, smiled and said, "Yes, it's Wenwen and Xiaoxiao. They don't study folk music. They just came here to watch Professor Wang's performance."
Many people around looked at the sisters Xu Wenwen and Xu Xiaoxiao, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
If the two beauties stand alone, they are just beauties, and people will just take a quick look and move on, continuing to focus on Wang Qian. But when the two stand together, they are even more eye-catching, and people can't help but take a few more glances!
Tang Wenqing lowered his voice again and asked, "I heard that these two sisters have Professor Wang's authentic calligraphy. Is that true?"
Several people around heard it and came over to listen.
As Wang Qian's international fame grows, his authentic calligraphy has been sold at sky-high prices in the domestic calligraphy circle. Calligraphy collectors from all walks of life want to collect a piece, and the price has been rising all the way, but there is no record of a transaction.
Because no one is selling it, it is truly a market with no demand.
It is no secret in the cultural circles of Jiangsu and Zhejiang that Xu Wenwen and Xu Xiaoxiao both have authentic works of Wang Qian. It is rumored that many calligraphy masters and collectors have come to ask to see them recently, and it is even rumored that someone offered tens of millions of dollars to buy them, but all were rejected.
Although Tang Wenqing is a master in the folk music circle, he is also very concerned about the cultural circle. He knows that in the Beijing circle, Wang Qian's calligraphy has also been hyped up. Wang Qian's status as the only master of calligraphy in modern times who has established a school has gradually been recognized by more and more people.
After all, his calligraphy skills and works are public and can be seen by anyone on the Internet. His Slender Gold calligraphy, which carries the oriental classical, restrained and elegant beauty, is gradually being loved and recognized by more and more people.
Therefore, many bigwigs wanted to collect an authentic work of Wang Qian, and many rumors were spread, but no one could get it.
Those paintings that Wang Qian gave away as raffles and which fell into the hands of the public have never appeared again.
so……
Tang Wenqing was very curious about the authentic calligraphy works of Wang Qian collected by sisters Xu Wenwen and Xu Xiaoxiao. He thought that after returning to China, he would visit Zhejiang Conservatory of Music and take a look at Wang Qian's calligraphy works.
Professor Zhang laughed after hearing what Tang Wenqing said, "Of course this is true. Old Xu always brags about it. But Old Xu can't do anything with his two precious granddaughters, Wenwen and Xiaoxiao. Professor Wang's calligraphy works are collected by the two sisters. Old Xu has to get their consent before he can see them. Many other people who wanted to come and see them were rejected by the two sisters. It's useless for Old Xu to say nice things."
"So, Professor Tang, if you want to see it, you have to talk to the sisters first, otherwise it will be a wasted trip."
Forehead……
Tang Wenqing and several people around him were stunned when they heard this, and then looked at the sisters Xu Wenwen and Xu Xiaoxiao in surprise.
Tang Wenqing frowned and said, "Then... this..."
He didn't know what to say for a moment.
He really couldn't please these two little girls and didn't know how to do it.
but……
He really wanted to see Wang Qian's original calligraphy with his own eyes.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
He had seen Wang Qian's calligraphy in videos, but he always felt that it was not real enough and wanted to see the original work in real life.
At this time, the singing around finally gradually subsided.
Because Wang Qian's car finally and slowly entered the venue passage and could no longer be seen by people outside.
Xu Wenwen and Xu Xiaoxiao, who had been singing, also stopped. The two sisters held hands and were so excited that they wanted to rush up and give Wang Qian a hug.
Xu Xiaoxiao turned around and said to everyone lively: "Wow, Professor Wang is amazing. I really want to see Professor Wang's performance soon."
Xu Wenwen's cheeks also turned red, and she said softly: "Professor Wang really conquered the world with his music. It's more shocking to feel it in person than to watch videos or news in China."
Professor Zhang nodded and said, "Yes, Professor Wang has really made our Chinese nation proud. He is amazing! In tonight's Guzheng performance, he is the first person to bring our Chinese classical folk music to the world stage. I can only say that he is worthy of being Professor Wang."
Tang Wenqing also agreed and said, "Yes, no matter how much recognition Professor Wang's performance tonight gets, he is successful and great in my eyes. Because he took this step and let the world know about the guzheng. When he gave a lecture at Curtis before, he also let the world know about the pipa."
"I know that many foreign musicians in Europe and America are getting to know the pipa, a classical Chinese musical instrument. This is all thanks to Professor Wang."
In the eyes of Professor Zhang and Tang Wenqing, the older generation of folk music masters, Wang Qian is simply their role model! This is not a national orchestra's performance abroad, nor is it a small internal performance for exchange and learning, but a real performance on a large world stage, watched by 200 to 300 million people around the world.
They have worked hard all their lives to promote folk music.
Unfortunately, they have not achieved much.
Now……
See Wang Qian has achieved this.
They truly admired Wang Qian and used the word "great" to describe him.
Xu Xiaoxiao's cheeks were also full of admiration as she said, "I believe that Professor Wang's guzheng performance will surely conquer the world and let everyone know the beauty of the guzheng."
Although Xu Xiaoxiao majored in piano, she also learned to play the guzheng since she was a child and has practiced for many years. She is considered an all-round genius.
Tang Wenqing said: "I heard that many music masters in Europe and the United States want to cause trouble for Professor Wang this time. They just can't stand seeing Professor Wang becoming more and more successful."
Xu Wenwen said disdainfully: "It's useless. I watched several programs where several so-called art masters criticized Professor Wang mindlessly, but no one paid any attention to them."
Xu Xiaoxiao looked towards the performance venue, her eyes full of longing: "I wonder if we can meet Professor Wang."
Tang Wenqing said, "It depends on the time. Professor Wang is probably very busy and has no time to see us! We'd better not disturb him. He can't afford any mistakes in the finals of the World Championship."
Others around nodded in agreement.
In the world finals, more than one billion people in the country hope that Wang Qian can win the championship and return home. He is at the top of the world, so naturally they dare not disturb Wang Qian now.
Xu Xiaoxiao whispered to herself softly: "If he knew I was here, would he come to see me?"
No one heard her words, and the crowd around her exclaimed again.
because……
Miyuki Nakamori also came in the nanny car.
Many media reporters gathered around and continued to take photos and videos, which were simultaneously transmitted to media websites around the world. The media from many island countries in the crowd were especially crazy. There were also many fans from the island countries who came to support Miyuki Nakamori and shouted slogans in the island language.
Miyuki Nakamori is the third most watched person in tonight's performance, second only to Wang Qian and Sophie, and slightly higher than Adam.
After all, she is one of the only two official contestants tonight, and the official has spared no effort to promote her.
Miyuki Nakamori sat in the car, her beautiful face was not nervous, her eyes were full of confidence. She looked at the dense crowd outside and murmured in a low voice: "If I eliminate Sophie and stand on the finals stage, Wang Qianjun, will you remember me in your heart?"
No one answered her question.
However, there was absolute courage and determination in her eyes.
Not for anything else, just to leave the most profound memory for Wang Qian.
She's going to win.
…
Wang Qian entered the venue.
As usual, Diana stopped Wang Qian for a brief interview.
"Professor Wang Qian, why did you choose to play a piece of Chinese classical musical instrument that no one knows or is familiar with tonight?"
Diana asked straight to the point.
As Wang Qian walked, he replied softly, "No reason, I just want to."
A willful answer.
Diana's eyes did not leave Wang Qian's face, and she continued to ask: "So, do you know that classical music will be suppressed by pop music in terms of sales? Don't you want to continue to be the sales champion next week?"
Wang Qian shrugged nonchalantly and said, "I just want to perform the music I want to perform, not for the sake of sales. Besides, isn't it normal for classical music not to win sales?"
Diana: "Who do you think is most likely to win tonight's game, Sophie or Miyuki Nakamori?"
Wang Qian shook his head: "I don't know. They are both talented players with strong abilities. It's normal for anyone to win."
Diana whispered, "Professor Wang Qian, please follow me. I have something to tell you privately..."
Wang Qian was stunned for a moment, then nodded to Qin Xuerong and others behind him, indicating that they should go to the venue first. He turned around and followed Diana out to the passage inside.
When I entered, there was no one there.
Diana took off all the recording devices on her body and said softly as she walked, "Professor Wang Qian, do you remember our bet?"
Wang Qian thought about it and said, "Well, now I remember it. It was just a joke. Don't take it seriously."
Diana turned around and stared at Wang Qian, her beautiful and sexy face full of seriousness, and said: "I am willing to accept the loss, I am willing to lose myself to you, are you willing to accept it?!"
The World Championship is almost over.
Diana felt that if she didn't take action, she would miss Wang Qian.
so……
Even if she has to take risks today, she has to take action.
Even if I can only get Wang Qian once.
Her life was worth it.
