In the background!
The three major TV stations jointly conducted an interview with Wang Qian before the performance.
Diana from North American TV, Zhou Yun from CCTV, and Wang Bing, a reporter sent by Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV, pointed three cameras at Wang Qian and placed three microphones in front of him.
All three are among the most popular journalists in their respective fields.
Three pairs of eyes stared at Wang Qian with admiration.
North American Television is Wang Qian's largest sponsor and contributed the most to the show, so Diana got the first interview privilege.
Diana asked first: "Professor Wang, your first symphony performance is about to begin. Did you know that your Chinese pianist praised you in an interview today, saying that after your performance, you will surpass several music masters such as Sterry and become the one second only to Gampphis?"
"Now, many people in the world are very dissatisfied with this and think it is nonsense. What do you think of this?"
Wang Qian was somewhat surprised that Mingming had such a high opinion of him. He and Mingming did not have many interactions and were just acquaintances in the same industry. That day, Mingming came to watch him and the orchestra rehearse and stood there quietly the entire time without speaking to Wang Qian.
He hadn't expected that Mingming actually had such high regard for his symphony.
After thinking for a while, Wang Qian said, "I just found out that my evaluation is that he has a good vision, and he is not wrong."
Hundreds of millions of viewers around the world who were watching the live broadcast at the moment were all surprised to see Wang Qian’s answer. They all thought that it was just an exaggeration, but they didn’t expect that Wang Qian himself also thought so
Is it arrogance
Many people still don't believe that Wang Qian can do it.
Diana continued to ask: "Do you think you can surpass Gampphis in the future? Many music masters hope that you can focus on music art, otherwise you will never be able to surpass Sterry in this life, let alone Gampphis!"
Wang Qian smiled and said confidently: "That's because they have too little experience. In a few years, they will find that there are some geniuses in this world that they cannot understand. Even if I don't focus on music and art, I can still do this, and no one can stop me..."
Wang Qian answered confidently, causing the three program groups on the scene to cheer.
Diana stopped asking questions and handed the follow-up to Zhou Yun from CCTV.
Zhou Yun is also someone who has seen big scenes. She often interviews heavyweight guests and has served as the host of the Spring Festival Gala. She is the youngest host of the Spring Festival Gala. This time, she came to host Wang Qian's live interview and she also took on an important responsibility. But at this moment, when she stood in front of Wang Qian and met Wang Qian's gaze, she found that her mind suddenly went blank. This was something that she had never encountered or happened in her several years of working in the industry.
She was known to have a big heart and was born for big occasions, but when she looked directly at Wang Qian, her mind went blank for a moment. Then she forced herself to calm down. It was only a one-second blank, and nothing unexpected happened. Then she quickly and instinctively asked the question she had prepared in advance: "Professor Wang, some domestic music artists believe that you have single-handedly raised Chinese music art to the same level as Europe and the United States. Do you think so?"
Wang Qian shook his head gently and said, "That's an exaggeration. I am certainly a part of Chinese music and art, but I cannot represent everyone. It requires the joint efforts of everyone and the improvement of the overall level to truly reach the international level. This cannot be achieved in a short period of time, nor can it be achieved by the rise of one person."
Wang Qian denied this statement.
This is actually a very sensible statement.
Those similar statements, such as someone has single-handedly brought a certain field to an internationally leading level, are just exaggerations and are not really possible.
Zhou Yun found that her heartbeat accelerated again, and she asked more quickly: "Professor Wang, there is a saying that the world's music and art center will move to China in the future. What do you think?"
Wang Qian smiled calmly: "This is possible, because I am in China."
It was a very domineering answer, causing all the audiences in China who were watching the live broadcast to shout in excitement. This domineering answer was what they wanted to say to the world!
Reporters Zhou Yun and Wang Bing, as well as the on-site program crews of the two major Chinese TV stations, were all filled with pride and excitement, and they couldn't wait to shout out to vent their excitement.
Zhou Yun's pretty face flushed with excitement. She bowed to Wang Qian and said, "Thank you Professor Wang for your answer. I have finished asking my questions."
Next is Wang Bing from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV. He is also the face of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV. Together with Zhou Yun, he is known as the representative of the two major media in the north and south. Both of them are the perfect combination of appearance and ability.
Because Zhou Yun came from CCTV, she is a little more dignified and serious, with a sense of simplicity and elegance.
Wang Bing worked for a local TV station and was more entertaining and down-to-earth, so he seemed more lively. He stepped forward and asked Wang Qian, "Professor Wang, can I stand next to you for the interview? I am your loyal fan and I really hope to appear on camera with you. This is my dream."
Forehead!
Zhou Yun and Diana looked at Wang Bing with greetings at the same time. Is it possible to do this
Wang Qian saw He Dongming behind the camera, and He Dongming shrugged, indicating that this was not arranged by him.
However, Wang Qian looked at Wang Bing's eager eyes and nodded, "Okay!"
Wang Bing walked over to Wang Qian with a big smile on his face. Facing the camera together, he asked Wang Qian respectfully, "Professor Wang, you came from Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV and debuted on the Voice of China stage. I think you are tired of hearing questions about music and art. So, let me ask something else. When will you release a new album?"
Wang Qian looked at Wang Bing with a little surprise, and then answered naturally: "It will definitely be issued this year. I can only guarantee this. It's hard to say the exact time. I've been too busy recently."
Wang Bing nodded: "Also, Professor Wang, you have finished writing the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. From this book, we can see that your literary accomplishment and the level of your novel writing are at the level of a historical master. Many readers hope that you can continue to write novels. So, do you have any plans in this regard in the future?"
After asking about pop music, now I’m asking about literary novels!
It can be seen that the questions asked by Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV are what most viewers are most interested in.
Music and art are certainly the mainstream these days, but most people are just there to watch the fun, and they feel proud to see Wang Qian conquer those European and American music artists. If you really ask them whether they like classical music, they may not be able to explain it.
However, if you ask them whether they like Wang Qian’s pop music, there is no doubt that nine and a half out of ten will say yes.
If you ask them whether they like Wang Qian’s novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, eleven out of ten will say yes!
Therefore, Wang Bing's questions were welcomed by almost all the audiences in the country.
Wang Bing smiled and said, "That's all my questions. Thank you Professor Wang for fulfilling my little wish. Thank you..."
As he spoke, Wang Bing made a scissors hand gesture to the camera as a photo, then bowed to Wang Qian to express his gratitude.
Wang Qian nodded to the three reporters, then turned and walked into the side door. Three cameras clearly transmitted this scene to the whole world!
The ratings data were also immediately delivered to the ears of several program directors.
"Excluding China, the number of viewers has reached 1.5 billion. The whole world is extremely looking forward to and paying attention to this. It is still rising rapidly and may soon exceed 2 billion!"
The North American TV crew excitedly told Diana.
Wang Qian is simply a miracle in the history of world entertainment. He can attract such huge traffic by himself.
The ratings in China are also extremely exaggerated, far exceeding those of the Spring Festival Gala.
CCTV's ratings reached over 60%, while Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV's ratings reached 30%, which together almost reached 100%. Almost every television in the country was watching Wang Qian's live performance!
When Wang Qian entered the scene, the live broadcast camera cut to the dozen or so cameras on the scene, which could clearly see the entire process of Wang Qian's entry and the facial expressions of all the audience on the scene.
There were more than 10,000 people in the venue, and it was all full. Naturally, there was not a single empty seat, and no one was absent or late.
All the eyes looking at Wang Qian were filled with complicated emotions.
Many Chinese audiences only have admiration and respect for Wang Qian, and no Chinese audience has any negative emotions towards Wang Qian.
The emotions of many foreign audiences are very complicated, ranging from admiration and respect to disdain and resistance, and also from watching the show and being indifferent.
but…
Regardless of their expressions and mentalities, everyone instinctively stood up and gave warm applause to the first symphony performance of the world's only contemporary music master.
Regardless of whether Wang Qian's performance will be successful, Wang Qian is still the only music master at this moment. In terms of status and achievements, he is the number one in the field of music art in the world today. Everyone present must give due respect to Wang Qian, otherwise it would be disrespectful to music art and a denial of oneself.
So, when Wang Qian appeared, all 15,000 people in the audience stood up and gave Wang Qian the warmest applause.
Only all the orchestra performers on the stage were still sitting as steady as a rock in their chairs, maintaining their best adjusted state and not letting their condition fluctuate. All pairs of eyes looked excitedly at Wang Qian who came out. Even though all the performers were veteran domestic artists in their forties, fifties or sixties, they all faced Wang Qian at this moment with respect and admiration.
It's not just because Wang Qian is now the number one in the world of music and art, nor is it just because Wang Qian represents the status of China's music and art world in the world, but also because the musical talent and strength that Wang Qian has demonstrated in their recent rehearsals have completely convinced all of them.
They are proud to perform this piece with Wang Qian in front of the whole world.
but…
The camera focus on the guests in the few seats added temporarily in the front row, who were also the most famous and special guests at the scene.
However, even with their special circumstances, when they saw Wang Qian coming out, they stood up and applauded warmly, showing respect to Wang Qian with smiles and pride on their faces.
Wang Qian is the pride of the entire China, and naturally their pride as well. It is also with their efforts behind the scenes that Wang Qian was pushed to such a height.
Wang Qian also smiled and nodded in greeting to several more respectable people, then walked step by step to the podium in the middle, facing the audience sideways.
The applause gradually died down.
Everyone is still looking forward to Wang Qian's symphony performance.
After all, facing the world's evaluation, many music artists and music art lovers in Europe and the United States are extremely disgusted.
However, they all knew that Mingming had never been a big mouth and would not talk nonsense casually. Since Mingming said so, maybe Wang Qian really had some ability.
Although they expressed various expressions of boycott and disbelief, they were actually still looking forward to it in their hearts.
Although Wang Qian revived music art at this time when music art was declining, they still have no idea what the future will be like.
But, if Wang Qian could surpass Gampphis in his lifetime and bring the art of music into a golden age, would the art of music be completely revived and prosper again for hundreds of years
This is also a glimmer of hope for music in their hearts!
No one wants the field they represent to decline. Everyone hopes that it will become stronger and that they will benefit greatly from it.
so!
In fact, they also had a glimmer of hope deep in their hearts, hoping that Wang Qian could really be as incredible as Mingming said, surpassing four music masters in one day, and then surpassing Gampith...
certainly!
They will also rudely obstruct this process to highlight their own existence and increase the popularity and topics of music art.
In the era of mobile good news, everyone knows that hype is needed to bring in traffic and topics.
Many people quarreled to the death in front of the media, as if they wanted to kill each other in person, but when they met in private, they just smiled at each other, without any tension, but with a tacit understanding, working together to hype and attract traffic, and then profiting together...
Now, many music artists in Europe and the United States also hope to form such a tacit understanding with Wang Qian.
It’s a pity that Wang Qian has not participated so far.
The scene had returned to silence, and everyone lowered their breathing, trying their best to listen to the performance that was about to begin.
Wang Qian picked up the microphone in front of him and said, "This piece of work was created by me after reading the history of China. Therefore, I named this symphony - Shenzhou!"
All the Chinese audiences at the scene and in front of the TV felt their blood rushing to their heads after hearing Wang Qian's words. They all wanted to wave their hands and shout excitedly...
Here we come!
Wang Qian has the opportunity to export Chinese consciousness and culture to the world!
Here we come!
