After the album's MV shooting was officially completed, the task of this trip to Hong Kong was officially completed. It took exactly seven days. According to Wan Feng's arrangement, during this time, Zheng Qian, in addition to rehearsing the concert content, also held a press conference for the new album.
A new album signing event will also be held.
However, due to limited time this time, the autograph session will only be held in Hong Kong and the Mainland. As for the Japanese, Korean and Southeast Asian markets, Universal Music will also invest in promotion, but the autograph session cannot be arranged for the time being.
Because judging from the sales results after the last book signing, arranging overseas signings is not cost-effective. Zheng Qian's main markets are still Hong Kong and the Mainland. These two places account for nearly 80% of the market.
After all, Zheng Qian's popularity operations are basically deployed domestically, and overseas markets will depend on the situation.
Most singers without capital support, even if they suddenly become popular, they will only be popular for a while, and then disappear like a shooting star.
If it can continue to be popular locally, it will not be possible without a professional operations team.
…
As the National Day approaches, the major media reports are full of joy.
Activities to celebrate the 55th anniversary of the founding of the motherland were also held by various television stations across the country.
In front of Tiananmen Square, the red flag is flying. Today is the National Day. In the evening, many enthusiastic citizens are already dancing social dances here.
The uncles got tired from dancing and slipped aside to rest, but the elderly aunts were still full of energy. This was probably the prototype of square dance in later generations.
The young people ran to the corner of the square with their tape recorders and began to sweat and dance hip-hop.
Children wearing roller skates shuttled between the crowds with laughter and laughter.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the tourists from all over the country. Because of the seven-day National Day holiday, tourists from all over the country come in droves to admire the style of the capital.
CCTV's on-location host has set up filming equipment and is preparing to broadcast the grand scene in front of Tiananmen Square during the party.
Everything is so prosperous and full of vitality.
Before that, the performance lineup for the National Day Gala also quickly began to be exposed.
In addition to traditional ethnic minority program performances, major cultural troupes are also actively appearing in the program list. Of course, the National Day Gala also invites popular singers and actors to increase the ratings.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Zheng Qian arrived at the CCTV building. As soon as he got off the bus, he saw a group of bare-headed monks getting off the two buses. They were all angry and full of energy. They were all regular monks from the Shaolin Temple.
Preparing for a traditional martial arts performance at the party.
Zheng Qian found it strange that in later generations, let alone the National Day Gala, even the Spring Festival Gala, it was rare to see Shaolin Temple monks perform on stage. However, the market for the monks has not diminished at all, and the number of times they have been invited to tour around the world is no worse than that of international stars.
After all, nowadays, when it comes to China, Chinese Kung Fu is obviously one of the biggest imprints.
Especially in the first two years, it is no wonder that after "Shaolin Soccer Team" became a box office hit in Hong Kong, its influence has further increased. Not only did the Songshan Shaolin Temple become the No. 1 popular tourist attraction in that year, but the Shaolin Eighteen Arhats performance team was even more famous.
Overseas, the number of invited performances is scheduled throughout the year.
Zheng Qian did not approach them without authorization.
Now that his identity is different, he can be regarded as a rising star with a halo all over his body. He will not only make screams wherever he goes, but he will still attract attention and commotion.
So after getting off the bus, we were escorted by bodyguards all the way to the backstage lounge of the CCTV Building studio.
Because the formation was large enough, it attracted a lot of attention from others, and it was spread among others. Gradually, the news of Zheng Qian's arrival at the CCTV building spread like wildfire.
When Zheng Qian changed into his performance clothes, chatted with Ren Xin and others in the lounge, and waited for the party performance to start, artists kept knocking on the door and coming to visit Zheng Qian. During the exchange, they kept saying "Teacher Zheng"
, his smile is kind and polite, making him irresistible.
This National Day Gala, except for the dance performances performed by ethnic minorities, was basically dominated by recitations, songs, and musical instrument performances.
So there are many singers.
In the music world, as an excellent singer-songwriter, his status is very important, and he is also the friend of many singers and managers. If it is a big company, naturally he will not worry about resources. Even if he does not take the initiative, he will
There are all kinds of lyrics and music presented to you, so you can choose from them.
If this is a small company, singers and managers will need to take the initiative.
Of course, no one will be too short on good works. Many people will deliberately approach Zheng Qian and express their friendship.
Everyone knows that Zheng Qian's future is immeasurable.
Therefore, when they heard that Zheng Qian had arrived at the CCTV building, many singers, managers, etc. began to visit Zheng Qian's lounge frequently, showing their respect for Zheng Qian.
Zheng Qian was also tired of dealing with these etiquette events.
But there are many celebrities, so it's okay if you just smile. If you neglect me, maybe tomorrow the industry or the media will quickly break the news about Zheng Qian's big name.
At this time, Zheng Qian was a little envious of Andy. He had been immersed in the entertainment industry for twenty years, and when he reached Andy's status, basically no one dared to discredit him.
At seven o'clock, Lou Ze led the students of military arts and the musicians of the orchestra, and filed into Zheng Qian's lounge in full view of everyone. They all greeted Zheng Qian and said hello to him.
The whole room was packed to the brim.
After all, the song "My Motherland" they performed was composed by Zheng Qian, so it would be rude not to express it.
However, when he arrived at the scene, Zheng Qian was the first to stand up, smiled honestly at Lou Ze and said, "Hello, Teacher Lou."
Lou Ze was very happy, "How about it? The live broadcast party will start soon. Are you feeling stressed?"
Zheng Qian smiled and said: "It's okay, it's not my first time on stage, I'm used to it."
Lou Ze laughed loudly, and then whispered: "I have already registered for you to take the postgraduate examination. I heard that you have been flying around the country recently, very busy, right? But don't delay your studies, I will let you know tomorrow
Someone gives you some test papers, you try to do them, and feel free to ask questions if you don’t understand anything. This is an open-book test, and you are the focus after all. It won’t look good if your score is too low. Come on!”
Zheng Qian nodded quickly: "Thank you, teacher, I will try my best."
After Lou Ze and others left, Ren Xin said happily: "This teacher Lou Ze is too kind to you. He thinks so highly of you that he is a master's tutor in military arts!"
Zheng Qian smiled and said: "It's pretty good."
In addition to the military art team, Li Ze, director of the China Symphony Orchestra, and Wang Run, director of the China Radio Choir, also led their respective teams to Zheng Qian's lounge a moment later.
This time they performed "The Spirit of the Chinese Army", representing the Song and Dance Ensemble of the General Political Department. At this time, everyone was in military uniforms, and their momentum was astonishing.
In an instant, the entire lounge was packed.
Zheng Qian quickly stood up to greet him. He was a little flattered.
Li Ze smiled and said, "As soon as I heard that you were coming, I wanted to come over and see you. As soon as I proposed this idea, others all agreed and wanted to come together to say hello to Zheng Qian. Alas, I just
You say this lounge can’t accommodate so many people!”
Wang Run said: "This is Sima Zhao's intention, and everyone on the road knows it!"
Li Ze said seriously: "I am simply here to pay a visit to Comrade Zheng Qian. Don't judge others by yourself."
Wang Run spat: "Bah!"
When Zheng Qian witnessed this scene, he couldn't laugh or cry either.
He actually knew it well. Li Ze was the head of the China Symphony Orchestra. During the last rehearsal of the General Political Department Song and Dance Ensemble, he actually communicated with Zheng Qian. Because of the popularity of "Steel Torrent March", Li Ze, the head of the China Symphony Orchestra, had to
I want to use Zheng Qian's bare hands to create a symphony comparable to this march.
After Wang Run saw the chorus song "The Soul of the Chinese Army", he also admired Zheng Qian very much. He had the same idea as Wang Run and wanted to get something out of Zheng Qian.
Generally speaking, those who came to visit Zheng Qian tonight basically had similar thoughts.
Zheng Qian sighed in his heart, if there was no such motivation, how many people would be willing to make friends with him?
At this time, director Xiong Hui's voice came from the radio, "Attention all units, the live broadcast is about to begin..."
Since he was scheduled to perform in the third program, Zheng Qian didn't have much time to prepare.
As soon as the live broadcast started, the staff took Zheng Qian to the waiting room behind the stage. Separated by a wall, Zheng Qian could hear the music coming from the stage. Representatives of fifty-six ethnic groups took to the stage one after another, performing the characteristics of each ethnic group.
dance.
Soon, the performance ended and six CCTV hosts came on stage.
"Dear viewers at the scene and in front of the TV, what you are watching now is the 2004 National Day special program of Chinese Dream and Ode to the Motherland..."
"This year's National Day is the 55th anniversary of the founding of New China..."
"We would like to express our respect and gratitude to the comrades who are still on the front line at this moment!"
"I would like to extend my most sincere condolences to people from all walks of life who are working hard to build a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way and fight against poverty!"
"..."
"Bless New China and happy birthday!"
After the speech, the first thing that came on stage was a wonderful performance by professional dancers from National University for Nationalities. During the dance performance, four singers, two men and two women, took the stage to sing "Chinese Dream".
In the second performance, a group of handsome young people waved calligraphy brushes and scolded Fang Qiu on the stage, and Shuiquan Group sang "Youth Chronicles" live.
After the two programs ended, Zheng Qian was ready to go.
Compared with the first two performances with large crowds, Zheng Qian's performance seemed unremarkable.
There was no announcement, no cheers, he was the only one on the huge stage.
When he stepped into the center of the stage, the entire background turned fiery red, and five-pointed stars fell from the big screen.
"It's Zheng Qian!"
Many people saw Zheng Qian's figure, so amidst bursts of applause, music sounded.
Zheng Qian's familiar voice also appeared in everyone's ears.
"Whenever I feel pain
I just want you to hold me tight
like you always do
Touch my soul..."
When Zheng Qian started singing, the floor under his feet suddenly bulged and began to rise slowly.
It wasn't until the lift platform rose to a height of two meters that it finally came to a standstill.
Zheng Qian was not disturbed by these disturbances and was still singing affectionately.
"Sometimes I feel lonely and helpless
Like stones rolling down the hillside
But just think of your name
I will always regain my confidence..."
Amid the singing, the lift began to descend.
However, at this time, on the big screen behind him, lines of clearly visible golden fonts suddenly appeared.
"The place where you stand is your China; as you are, China will be; whatever you are, China will be; if you are bright, China will not be dark."
If you are bright, China will not be dark.
At this moment, all the audience felt as if an electric current had suddenly passed through their bodies.
In these words and these songs, people gradually felt a sense of shock.
The most touching thing is the patriotism that comes from the bottom of my heart.
"I love you China, beloved mother
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you China, dear mother
I cry for you and I am proud of you..."
For a moment, the entire venue was silent.
All the audience listened to this song in silence.
Director Xiong Hui quickly directed the photographer to start moving the camera and record the audience's reactions into the live footage.
Some people sighed, some wiped away tears, some were proud, some were excited, some were smiling, and some couldn't help but applaud.
Off the stage, Lou Ze was sitting in the VIP seat and kept talking to his friends next to him: "I'm a student! Didn't you expect that? Haha, this song was originally created by him, and this passage was also spoken by him himself!"
Lou Ze was as excited as a child, and others also expressed congratulations.
Although they had known this news for a long time, when facing the song "I Love You China", they still had to sigh with emotion, Lou Ze was really lucky to have accepted such a talented student.
Listen to the lyrics, listen to the singing...
Duo Tuo has a bright future!
But what shocked everyone even more was what came next.
When Zheng Qian's singing gradually became louder, he suddenly knelt down in the majestic music with a blood-red background, raised his head and sang hysterically.
"I love you China, beloved mother
I cry for you and I am proud of you
I love you China, dear mother
I cry for you and I am proud of you..."
This kneeling made all the viewers at the scene and in front of the TV feel numb and have goosebumps.
For a time, audiences across the country were in a frenzy.
On the Internet, major forums were all discussing this situation in an instant.
“Zheng Qian’s high notes are unparalleled!”
"This kneeling is very shocking!"
"Oh, I'm getting older, and I cry when I listen to it!"
"Even if the motherland has shortcomings, it is our own motherland after all. A son will never think his mother is ugly. Those people who deliberately smear their motherland on the Internet are really abominable!"
"There is no shame in being patriotic! I am patriotic and I am proud!"
"I wish the motherland will always be prosperous and fearless of rumors and slander. You will always have a group of young people who will burst into tears for you and risk life and death for you!"
"Fifty-five years have been like a song. Fifty-five years have been forging ahead. Happy birthday, mother of the motherland!"
"The color of the background is so hot. If miracles had a color, it must be Chinese red!"
