At 7:30 in the evening, the stadium was packed with audiences full of anticipation. They came from different countries and regions, with different skin colors and languages, but they all gathered here with their love for Shen Lang’s music, and were looking forward to the opening of this musical feast.

“(English) I wonder if Shen Lang will give us a surprise today.” A young girl with blond hair and blue eyes said to her companions with a slightly excited tone. She was wearing a T-shirt with Shen Lang’s portrait printed on it and holding a glow stick tightly in her hand. It was obvious that she was a die-hard fan.

“Are you referring to the new song?” The companion, a tall young man, asked back with his head slightly tilted.

“Yes, although the song ‘Huo Yuanjia’ he sang at the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympics was very touching, he hasn’t released a new English song for half a year.” The girl said, pouting.

“It’s been a long time.” The young man nodded in agreement.

With the rapidly changing pace of the European and American music markets, fans have been itching for more than half a year without the release of new songs.

“Besides, today is the last overseas stop of the tour.” The girl added, and then said with a hint of speculation in her tone: “Maybe on such an important occasion, he will give us a surprise.”

“I’m not sure if he has a new English song, but Taylor definitely has one. Jingtao Music started promoting it last month.” The young man shrugged, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes when he mentioned Taylor.

As a highly anticipated new star under Jingtao Music and a native American singer, Taylor’s new songs have always been highly anticipated.

At this time, everyone in the venue was chatting enthusiastically in groups of three or four.

Most of the topics revolved around Shen Lang, and their eyes were full of attention and love for their idol.

What they are more looking forward to is whether Shen Lang will give a surprise tonight and when the new English song will be released.

From these heated discussions, we can clearly see how much European and American fans love him.

But honestly speaking, it is extremely difficult for a Chinese star to make a name for himself and have a broad and profound influence on the international stage of entertainment.

Before Shen Lang, there were only a few Chinese stars such as Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan who were famous all over the world and known and recognized by many international friends.

Bruce Lee created a “Kung Fu whirlwind” in Hollywood with his fierce and powerful Kung Fu and unique personal charm. He broke the Western world’s inherent stereotype of Orientals, promoted Chinese Kung Fu to the world, and let the world witness the profoundness of Chinese martial arts. His philosophical thoughts and martial arts concepts are still widely discussed and studied around the world.

Jackie Chan has conquered audiences around the world with his humorous action style, thrilling fighting scenes and dedicated spirit. While enjoying the exciting action scenes, audiences have also developed a strong interest in Chinese culture. He has also gained high recognition in the international film scene for his outstanding contributions to the film industry.

Compared with the achievements of these two predecessors, although Shen Lang has made remarkable achievements in the field of music, he still has a lot of room for improvement in the depth and breadth of cultural influence and the diversity of cross-field development.

Now, backstage at the Hard Rock Stadium.

Shen Lang, wearing a simple yet fashionable performance outfit, was chatting and laughing with Liu Yifei, Taylor and others.

Looking around, the entire backstage is star-studded.

Rihanna, with her graceful figure, was communicating the details of the stage with the staff. Her unique fashion taste and strong aura could not be ignored even if she was just standing quietly.

Lady Gaga, as always, wore a unique style of clothing that was exaggerated and creative, and her every move showed her personality. She was discussing music enthusiastically with Adele beside her.

Adele nodded slightly, listened attentively, and occasionally expressed her own opinions. Her calm temperament formed an interesting contrast with Lady Gaga’s flamboyance.

Katy Perry was wearing colorful clothes and full of energy. She moved among the crowd and greeted everyone warmly.

Brother Mars wore his signature hat, showed a confident smile, and exchanged performance experiences with the members of Republic Era.

It is truly a spectacle to be able to sign these superstars who play an important role in the future development of music to a company.

Although in 2024, they may no longer be in the absolute top position due to the changing music trends, but in the 2010 years from 2020 to 10, they were definitely one of the hottest groups in the world music scene.

Their music, which either leads the trend or creates unique styles, has won them a huge number of fans around the world, with record sales setting new records and concerts being sold out.

As for his feelings towards Shen Lang, they are not as close as those towards Taylor. It is more of a respect for his mentor and boss.

“Brother Lang, the time is up.” At this time, the staff came over to remind him.

“Okay, let’s go!” Shen Lang stood up after hearing that.

Seeing him walk to the stage passage, the stage director quickly checked the flow chart in his hand while directing other staff to make final preparations: “Attention, all departments, follow the rehearsal process and don’t make any mistakes.”

At the same time, the 6.5 spectators in the Hard Rock Stadium could no longer contain their excitement.

When the lights in the venue dimmed, the entire venue was instantly filled with cheers.

A fanatical female fan in the front row waved a huge Shen Lang support sign in her hand and screamed, “Shen Lang! Shen Lang!”

The audience in the back row also stood up, stretched their necks, and stared at the stage.

When a dazzling spotlight pierced through the darkness like a sharp sword and landed accurately on the center of the stage, Shen Lang’s familiar figure slowly stepped into the light amid thousands of expectant gazes.

In an instant, the entire Hard Rock Stadium seemed like a ignited powder keg, erupting with deafening screams.

“Are you ready?”

As Shen Lang’s voice fell, the live band played a magnificent piece of music.

“Down with Imperialism

I don’t want to be a slave anymore
My front door was invaded

You said BB Ans
I said why be afraid of her
Oh oh oh Oh oh
Don’t kowtow to them…”

“Full Fire” opened passionately, Shen Lang sang loudly and danced wildly on the stage.

The audience in the audience was completely immersed in this warm atmosphere, dancing wildly to the rhythm and swaying their bodies to the rhythm of the music.

Next up is the Rock Trilogy.

The passionate melody of “Hall of Fame” is like the beating of a war drum, inspiring people to pursue their dreams and climb the hall of glory; the passionate rhythm of “Fire” is like a blazing fire, igniting the enthusiasm of everyone at the scene;
The powerful lyrics and stunning melody of “Believer” made everyone become firm believers.

At the climax of the song, the audience spontaneously formed a neat chorus. The voices of 6.5 people came together like a surging tide. The majestic momentum seemed to shake the entire stadium.

“(English) Today…” After singing four songs in a row, Shen Lang took a short break, changed into a cooler outfit and returned to the center of the stage. He cleared his throat and said, “It will be a special day. The next song I’m going to sing is from the new album…”

However, as soon as the words “new album” came out of his mouth, the scene was instantly ignited.

The screams and cheers of the fans erupted like a volcano, completely interrupting his words.

This is the surprise they were waiting for!

Now, I finally got what I wanted!

“OK.” Shen Lang smiled faintly and waited patiently until the scene became a little quieter before continuing, “What Makes You Beautiful, I hope you like it!”

This is a song sung by the original British boy band One Direction, released on September 2011, 9.

Although it is not a Grammy Award-winning song, it won the “Best British Single” award at the 32nd Brit Awards, as well as the “Best Pop Video” and “Most Popular Video” awards at the MTV Video Music Awards.

“You’re insecure
You always feel insecure

Don’t know what for
do not know why

You’re turning heads when you walk through the door
You even have to look around before you walk in the door…”

As soon as Shen Lang opened his mouth, his magnetic and energetic voice instantly captured everyone’s heart.

And this song is the promotional song he prepared for Samsung mobile phone.

The catchy tune and sunny lyrics have a magical power that makes people shake their legs involuntarily to the rhythm.

Of course, just presenting this new song is not enough to make today a “special day”.

Shen Lang’s plan is to sing all 10 songs from his new album at tonight’s concert.

Looking at the entire music industry, no one has ever made such an attempt before, and few are willing to take such a big risk.

After all, fans are not yet familiar with the songs in the new album, and if they are presented in their entirety at a large-scale concert, if the effect is not good, it is very likely to affect the overall quality of the performance and even be criticized by music critics.

But for Shen Lang, music creation and performance come from the purest love in his heart. He always follows his heart and does whatever he likes.

If this thing has been done before, he may not do it again.

He is eager to break the routine and bring his fans a unique and unforgettable musical feast.

“Some time ago, I accidentally discovered a very attractive type of music called Progressive House (electronic music)…”

Shen Lang held the microphone, and his voice was clearly transmitted to the ears of every audience member through the sound system surrounding the entire venue. As he spoke, he walked towards the electronic equipment area in the live band area.

“What?”

“He can do this too?”

“What style of music is this?”

The audience below the stage exclaimed and talked one after another.

They stared with wide eyes, looking at Shen Lang on the stage in disbelief, their eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation.

In everyone’s perception, Shen Lang has demonstrated outstanding talent in the fields of pop, rock and roll. Now he is involved in the field of electronic music, which is really surprising but also natural.

“Then, come and have fun with me!”

Shen Lang came to the electronic equipment and operated it skillfully. His slender fingers danced quickly among various buttons and knobs, and a dreamy and dynamic music instantly filled the entire venue.

This song is “The Nights” from the original Swedish music producer Avicii. It was released on December 2014, 12. Once it came out, it set off an electronic music craze around the world. Its unique style and lyrics full of power and hope have fascinated countless people.

“Oh~hhhhhh
These are the nights that never die
Those nights will last forever

My director told me
My dean said…”

in the country, electronic music is relatively niche and does not yet have a wide audience like in Europe and the United States.

But in Shen Lang’s view, good music can overcome all obstacles.

As the music started, the audience stood up from their seats.

“Everyone, follow my rhythm, 3, 2, 1! Oh~hhhhhh…”

Under the leadership of Shen Lang, all the audience raised their hands in unison and waved their arms rhythmically in the air, as if it was a “forest” moving to the rhythm of the music.

Their palms slap against each other, making a crisp and loud sound that perfectly matches the powerful rhythm of “The Nights”.

The scene seemed to have turned into a huge dance floor, with everyone immersed in this joyful atmosphere.

At this moment, the music carnival in the Hard Rock Stadium has reached its boiling point. The stars who were originally sitting in the VIP seats were infected by the warm and almost crazy atmosphere on the scene. They could no longer contain their excitement and joined in.

At the same time, they were also sighing that Shen Lang really knew everything and was omnipotent.

His talent is like an endless treasure, always able to dig out new surprises. Being in the same era with him is both a blessing and a pressure. (End of this chapter)
