Chapter 819 An unexpected surprise: an invitation from the Kremlin
This is an unexpected invitation, but also a heavy one.
The invitation came from the Kremlin, the most sacred place in Russia.
The invitation clearly stated that Su Yang was invited to attend the Spring Festival Gala.
Before we knew it, another New Year has arrived.
Every New Year, the Kremlin invites some people to perform, and the performance is broadcast live nationwide.
This was a way to celebrate the beginning of the new year, and the attendees of the party were all top Russian artists.
Su Yang became the first foreign artist to be invited to participate in the Russian New Year Gala. This had never happened before, but this time it was a special case.
It seemed like a simple invitation, but Su Yang knew it was not simple.
However, for Su Yang, this is a rare opportunity and an honor. At the same time, such an invitation also sends a huge signal, that is, Russia's attitude towards China is getting better and better.
Thinking of this, Su Yang began to think about what to perform at this party.
After a brief thought, Su Yang already had the answer.
After staying in Russia for another two days, the annual New Year's Day came again.
Before we knew it, another year had passed, and this year had been a wonderful one for Su Yang.
After leaving the company, the development of Qingyao Group was not affected at all. The subsidiaries continued to develop in an orderly manner and all projects were advanced in an orderly manner.
Tang Qing managed the company in an orderly manner. After Su Yang left, Tang Qing's image as a strong woman became more prominent, and she was even hailed as a "Diamond Bachelor" by netizens.
Tang Qing has many admirers around the world, especially in China. She is known as a woman who will save you a lot of trouble if you marry her.
Although Tang Qing's wealth is not as much as Su Yang's, it is still not small. After all, she is the major shareholder of Qingyao Group and is also the president of Qingyao Group.
Not to mention the shares, Tang Qing's annual income from the CEO bonus alone exceeds 1 billion RMB. Tang Qing's shares in Qingyao Group are estimated to be worth over 200 billion RMB. Who wouldn't want such a rich woman who is also so beautiful and sexy?
As night fell, Russian state television began broadcasting the Kremlin's New Year's Gala live on time.
Looking at the audience below, each and every one of them was a heavyweight. Apart from a few invited guests, most of the guests were powerful figures in Russia.
The man sitting in the center of the first row was even more impressive: the famous Emperor. In Russia, the Emperor was a god-like being.
As a foreign artist, it is an honor for Su Yang to be able to perform in front of the emperor.
Backstage, Su Yang was chatting lively with some Russian artists.
They all admired Su Yang. Although they were top artists in Russia, they were far inferior to Su Yang. Su Yang was the real international superstar. In Su Yang's eyes, their income was not even pocket money.
The entertainment industry is a world of fame and fortune, and Russia is no exception.
What's more, Su Yang is a super rich man, and his assets are more than those of the Russian oligarchs.
As artists, the gap between them and Su Yang was huge. Now that Su Yang could chat with everyone enthusiastically, it was a great honor for them.
Time passed little by little, and it was finally time for Su Yang to appear.
"China and Russia have a good friendship, and today's Spring Festival Gala also has a special guest..."
After the host’s introduction, the stage was cleared.
Su Yang appeared handsomely on the stage and the performance officially began.
Su Yang's first performance was "Opera 2," a song that has been trending online in Russia these days. It's incredibly popular, not just in Russia but globally, topping many music charts worldwide.
Su Yang's beautiful voice resounded throughout the Kremlin's hall, and countless people watching the show were intoxicated by it.
It is a pleasure to listen to Su Yang sing this song.
Art knows no borders, and Su Yang sang in Russian, so the audience watching the performance didn't feel any awkwardness.
After the song "Opera 2" was finished, there was warm applause from the audience.
However, Su Yang did not leave the stage, and the screen behind the stage lit up.
A black and white documentary begins to play, showing wreckage, war...
"On September 18, 1931, Japan launched the 918 Incident..."
"In 1937, Japan launched the Marco Polo Bridge Incident..."
"On June 22, 1941, the German army attacked the Soviet Union..."
The brutal war, the devastating wreckage, the historical descriptions in Russian, and the edited footage all seem to bring people back to World War II.
The music starts and the camera switches to show young Russian and Chinese people joining the army to serve their country.
"You know, I really want to be alive and see the sunrise..."
"To live is to love the people around you..."
When Su Yang spoke, the scene suddenly became quiet.
In the video, for the sake of the country, the father left his children, the husband left his wife, and the son left his father.
In the brutal war, countless people died, but didn’t they all want to live?
The people in the audience and those watching the show were immediately moved by the song and listened to it quietly.
"You know how much I want to be alive, to wake up, to greet the dawn with you, to brew coffee, while everyone else is still fast asleep."
The song "How I Want to Live" deeply touched many people at the scene.
This is especially true for those in military uniforms.
Russia is a country that is very familiar with war. Even after World War II, it has experienced many wars.
At this moment, the images in the MV show many aspects of the Russian war. The young people left only for the betterment of this woman's country.
"You know, I long to be alive. My deeds are not in the newspapers. Share everything. Life is so that children will never forget..."
The song reached its climax and Su Yang raised his head and looked at the audience.
"You know, at the moment of sacrifice, I wanted to be alive. I stood up and told everyone: "Even if I fall, I will come back."
As the song reached its climax, the camera on the large screen at the back switched. Photos appeared one after another on the screen, including Russians, Chinese, familiar military officers, and unfamiliar Japanese people.
Photos and graves one by one, they are the ones who guarded this country.
This scene brought many people to tears, and the emperor sitting in the first row suddenly stood up. Then more people stood up, the soldiers took off their hats, and ordinary people lowered their heads.
Each photo represents a great sacrifice. "How much I want to live" is the cry in the hearts of those who have sacrificed their lives for the country.
It’s a pity that they are gone now. It is because of their sacrifice that we have our current country.
In this respect, Russia and China are the same. Both countries have achieved their current national prosperity thanks to the countless blood sacrificed by their predecessors.
There were tears in the emperor's eyes, and more people were moved by the song and their eyes were moistened.
