Compared with the identity of a traditional pop singer, many Japanese fans who came to the scene were more interested in Zheng Qian's reputation in the classical piano world, and even admired him. After all, Japan has a strong literary and artistic atmosphere. For traditional writers,
Artists such as painters and pianists are highly respected, and professionals who engage in artistic creation are often more popular with the public.
What's more, a singer-songwriter like Zheng Qian who has achieved a certain degree of fame internationally, and has the experience and allusions of becoming famous in Warsaw, it is easy for people to think of some legendary stories.
Some Japanese fans who follow Zheng Qian feel excited and proud the more they dig into Zheng Qian's story.
Therefore, when Zheng Qian came to Tokyo University of the Arts to hold a book signing, many local fans in Japan were moved by the news. Some even started queuing in the library before dawn, just to be the first to see Zheng Qian from China.
.
Only those who purchased the album on site can participate in the signing event, and there is a long queue.
But even so, there are still a large number of people willing to come here.
On the surface, Japan is a very well-behaved country. Queuing in line is orderly and very conscious, and no one makes a loud noise. This results in the entire first floor of the library being very quiet even if it is full of people.
Zheng Qian admired this kind of order, but sometimes he was very frightened when he thought about it. Although the extreme depression brought order, the waves hidden under the calm lake could only be known by in-depth understanding.
On the first floor of the library, a long queue moved slowly.
Everyone's face was a little excited and excited, and they kept looking at the front position.
There, Zheng Qian was signing autographs and smiling and shaking hands with the fans. Occasionally, if a fan made a special request, Zheng Qian would do his best to satisfy it.
He didn't sign quickly, even too slowly, but no one complained, and some even felt better.
"Look at the way he lowers his head to sign, he looks so graceful."
"Yes, he is very gentleman, and his every move reveals extraordinary beauty."
"This is a Chinese man, so handsome that it makes people obsessed... Haha, he looked up at me, he is so handsome!"
"What exactly did you go through to write a song like "Snow Flower"? I was deeply moved. You are really talented."
"I will definitely ask him when he will hold a concert later. I want to see him play the piano. Even musicians in Warsaw, Poland, are impressed by his ability. I really hope to see him."
"He seems to be very good friends with Hayakawa Najia. Hayakawa Najia sang the song "Fire with Fireworks" on "Variety Show Observation" two days ago, which caused a big sensation at the time!"
"I also watched it. They are really good friends. Zheng Qian didn't have time to participate in variety show promotions, so Hayakawa Caizhi personally helped. I was touched by such a pure friendship."
"The song "No Big Deal" was also written by Zheng Qian himself and given to Hayakawa Naji. If it weren't for this song, Hayakawa Naji would probably still be an unknown anime singer. But with Zheng Qian's help, she has already started
It’s shining brightly in Japan.”
"I like Hua Liu. I feel that the Chinese have a certain atmosphere. Maybe it's because they have a history of 5,000 years. After all, it is such a big country. In comparison, Hallyu is too petty. What I dislike the most is Korea.
People."
"I hate Koreans too."
"Last time I saw a group of foreigners spitting and making loud noises at Sensoji Temple. I went to stop them. They said it was very common in China and would not offend others. I was really mad and called the police to teach them a lesson. It was outrageous.
Yes, their passports have Korean characters printed on them! They are Koreans, but they pretend to be Chinese!"
"I have also seen similar reports. Our media is too unfriendly to China. It always reports some Chinese news scandals, which creates a bad impression for the public. In fact, the Chinese people are really nice.
!”
"Agree! After I fell in love with Zheng Qian, I went to check the relevant news about China. I didn't pay attention to the largest country in Asia before, but now, I find that there are treasures everywhere and the food is very rich. I am eager to
I want to travel to China.”
"I particularly like the song "aliez". The lyrics are so written that it makes you want to kneel down. Our instructor also stopped the song. He meaningfully told us the truth of the song: war is nothing but a war between nations.
Even if there is no hatred, there will still be war!"
"You want to get territory, resources, privileges, ideas, religion, relics, and dignity no matter what. War will occur around these goals!"
"So as long as the goal is achieved, the war will end, or as long as the number of deaths exceeds the benefits, the war will also end. Anger and hatred are just means to promote war..."
People were talking quietly.
Zheng Qian lowered his head to sign autographs. Occasionally, he could hear some fans talking, but they were also non-committal.
However, when he saw this beautifully packaged album again, Zheng Qian's face still showed emotion.
The cover of the Japanese album is small and exquisite. It is made of exquisite black and is decorated with a staircase from near to far. Next to it is a very beautiful hand with the words "accompany you to the end of the world" written in Japanese.
Compared with Zheng Qian's previous albums, the packaging of this album is more exquisite than the previous albums. When you take it apart, you can see exquisite posters and lucky coupons inside. You can enjoy discounts with the lucky coupons.
Purchase any products published by other Sony singers and artists.
At the same time, there is an invitation letter, inviting all fans who have purchased the album "Be with You to the End of the World" to join the Zheng Qian Fans Yahoo Forum, which is directly operated by Sony Entertainment. As long as Zheng Qian comes to Japan, any activities will be held
All fans will be notified immediately through text messages on the site. If they have a mobile phone number or telephone number, the staff will also remind them by text messages and phone calls.
It can be said that as long as you join the forum and become a member, Sony Records will provide dedicated and over-the-top services. No information about the idol will be missed. Any idol's schedule will be provided to members as soon as possible. If members have needs,
You can also ask questions to the official, and other members can vote. As long as a certain number of votes is exceeded, the official will do its best to meet the needs of members.

This is a very mature artist development system in Japan.
Even if the artist's nationality is not high, as long as he has a considerable number of fans, it doesn't need to be too many, just a few thousand loyal fans, he can easily support an artist, and his life is better than that of artists from other countries.
Much better.
Anyone with tens of thousands of fans will basically be trained by major brokerage companies.
Therefore, the release of Zheng Qian's new Japanese album this time is actually a test of Zheng Qian's popularity by Sony Records.
At present, judging from the number of album purchases alone, the data is still quite good, so Sony Records once again increased its promotional efforts after the album was released. Although Zheng Qian did not continue to participate in variety shows, he was playing games in many variety shows
Or in related situations, background music of one of Zheng Qian's songs will be provided to attract people's attention.
It has to be said that the song quality of Zheng Qian's Japanese album is top-notch. Even in Japan, it is difficult to have such terrifying quality where the entire album is the title song.
Therefore, what happened in China on both sides of the Taiwan Strait has had similar effects in Japan.
During this period, one classic song after another spread like a virus throughout Japan. Airports, schools, bus stations, subway stations, supermarkets and convenience stores, etc., were almost all playing the album "With You to the End of the World"
songs in.
According to Saki Yuri, Zheng Qian's songs will be absolutely popular at least in the next month.
Due to such a crony effect, the sales of this Japanese album have also been rising steadily, and it has been out of stock in various cities across the country. This has allowed Sony Records to quickly drive factories to speed up production.
The first printing and the second printing totaled 600,000 copies. They were all sold out in just four days, with an average of 150,000 copies sold every day. This result instantly shocked the Japanese music scene.
But all relevant practitioners expressed heartfelt admiration after listening to the songs in this album.
The sweet sadness in "Flowers of Snow".
The excitement in "Blue Bird".
The two songs "Love You Like My Life" and "Until the End of the World" express the admiration and regret of youth.
The cry in "Dream Lantern".
Thoughts on war in "aLIEz".
Regret about the past in "Lemon".
"PLANET" has a very healing melody and the most desperate lyrics.
The lonely singing voice in "Fireworks".
The treble tear in "unravel".
The despair in "Once I Wanted to Finish It All" was so sad that it was so despairing.
The heavenly singing in "Castle in the Sky"...
Each of these songs is no worse than "No Big Deal", or even better.
Each song can be regarded as a title song.
And all these works are gathered in the same album at this moment.
Just like Saki Yuri once said, even if the singer is an unknown person, with the blessing of these songs, he will still become a sensation in the near future.
What's more, Zheng Qian is still relatively well-known in Japan, and his previous accumulation has provided him with sufficient energy and strength for today's explosion.
The mystery he carries will make more and more fans feel attracted to him, and then they will be like moths to a flame, willing to become Zheng Qian's followers.
No one can have such talent as Zheng Qian. When "The Three-Body Problem" won the Hugo Award, it proved his literary talent. The album "With You to the End of the World" only reflects his talent in singing and composition.
Even if we go forward twenty years, there will be very few special cases like Zheng Qian, or even none.
His existence is enough to prove that genius really exists.
One week after the Japanese album was released, relevant media exposed the sales volume of the album "Be with You to the End of the World" that week.
1.1 million photos!
Breaking one million records in a single week!
Although this is supported by discounts and promotions, it still proves the strength of this album!
Even in the contemporary Japanese music scene, it is extremely difficult for a truly superstar-level singer to have such achievements.
However, the media also exposed the reasons for the horrific sales.
In addition to Japan, which is the largest purchasing place, Zheng Qian's album has set off a buying frenzy throughout Asia. In mainland China alone, some people directly purchased 80,000 copies of the album in order to support Zheng Qian.
Others, such as Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Taiwan, have also contributed a lot of sales to a certain extent.
This allowed Zheng Qian to achieve impressive results in the Japanese music scene.
Even for Japan's top contemporary top-tier singers, it would be impossible for them to achieve such results within a week.
Therefore, the entire Japanese music scene instantly had high respect for Zheng Qian, a male singer from mainland China.
This resulted in a sudden increase in Zheng Qian's invitations to related events in Japan.
At the same time, the Zheng Qian Fans Yahoo Forum Support Association also announced new membership data.
New members need an invitation letter from the album "Be with You to the End of the World" to join. The fan forum obviously contributed a lot to sales exceeding one million copies within a week.
According to data, in a full week from the release of the new album to now, the number of new members of Zheng Qian's Japanese Fans Club has reached 120,000, and the total number of members is nearly 130,000.
In other words, before the new album was released, the number of people in Zheng Qian’s fan club was only a few thousand.
After the release of the new album, the number of viewers increased by 120,000.
And for these 1.1 million albums, the conversion rate is about one-tenth, which is also a rare figure.
Even Japan's contemporary top-tier singers do not have such a terrifying conversion rate. Even top artists with millions of fan forums have to work hard for many years to accumulate such data.
For example, Hayakawa Nanazai, a Japanese contemporary first-line singer, has only had more than 40,000 members since her debut.
This is enough to illustrate Zheng Qian’s ability to attract fans.
After the one-week sales were announced, the news spread back to the mainland.
This also made many domestic fans jump up and down with excitement. Many fans kept scrolling on Xinhai Weibo. Congratulations to Zheng Qian for winning a mountain in Japan. From then on, he dominated the Japanese music scene.
The king is full of arrogance.
Even on related fan sites, some people began to use Zheng Qian as the protagonist, and wrote a story about Zheng Qian traveling across Japan and collecting beautiful women from his harem.
Although everyone knows it is fake, many readers still read it with gusto and feel deeply involved. They even went to the ATM to pay the author to urge updates.
Because the plot was so popular, there were countless followers for a while.
As a result, various protagonists named Zheng Qian began to explore wildly in the two-dimensional world. They frequently appeared in various fan articles and were jokingly called outlaws by readers.
