536. Chapter 527 Novel and Music Reach the Top


Chapter 527: Novel and Music Reach the Top

The pinnacle of instrumental music is symphony;

The pinnacle of vocal music is the chorus.

There is no other way of singing that can be more shocking than the chorus of tens of thousands of people.

At this time, on the simple stage, the bands were lined up on both sides.

The celebrities who came to support stood in the center surrounded by Nancy.

There are countless people participating in the chorus around, and the backlights of mobile phones are shining like stars.

The song "One Day" echoed in the sky.

Such a scene brought an extremely strong sense of impact to everyone present.

Singing, shouting, singing again, shouting again, a song that lasted only a few minutes had to be sung five or six times before it was finished.

Of course, because there were too many people at the scene and the signal was too poor, video of the scene was not yet available on the Internet.

The media did have an OB truck, but they did not start the live broadcast. Instead, they hoped to capture more footage and edit it before releasing it.

Therefore, it will take some time for netizens to see this shocking scene.

But it doesn’t matter. Many netizens are discussing another thing at this time. The "Hugo Awards" are finally presented.

Not surprisingly, "The Three-Body Problem" won this year's Hugo Award for Best Feature Story.

Since Xu Xiyu returned to China, the person who received the award was Wang Zhou, the translator of the English version.

When he delivered the acceptance speech on behalf of Xu Xiyu, he also announced the official launch of physical books of "Three-Body 2: Dark Forest" in English, Spanish, Arabic, and Japanese.

To be honest, not many people paid attention to the Hugo Awards.

But this time there was an outlier like Xu Xiyu among the participants. Therefore, the news that "Three-Body" won the award quickly attracted the attention of a large number of domestic and foreign netizens and media reports.

Under the relevant awards video clips on YouTube, comments came one after another.

[Well deserved, this award should go to "The Three-Body Problem". I have read this book twice and it is very excellent]

[Congratulations to "The Three-Body Problem" and Mr. Xu Xiyu, I will definitely buy the physical book for collection]

[Oh my God, I don’t know how to praise Xu’s talent. Why can one person achieve success in film, television, music, and literature? 】

【He even looks handsome】

[Oh, I think I should boycott him, you know, seeing people like this makes me feel too ordinary]

【LMAO~~】

【He is really not "right", Ahahahaha】

[I don’t understand why it’s available in Japanese and Spanish, but not in Korean? 】

[What don’t you understand? You should understand]

[Excuse me, which bookstore in Japan sells it and where should I buy it? 】

There is a time difference between the United States and other countries. It is night here on the West Coast, but it is noon in China, Japan and other places.

As early as when Xu Xiyu was shot for the first time, Japanese readers paid attention to the book "The Three-Body Problem". Even earlier, "The Three-Body Problem" already had a certain number of readers in Japan. Now that "Three-Body Problem" has won the award and the Japanese version of the physical book "Three-Body Problem: Dark Forest" has been put on sale, readers immediately started asking on the Internet where to buy it.

That is when they ask.

Videos of the chorus finally began to appear on the Internet one after another, taken by the media, taken by participants on the scene, and even taken by celebrities on stage.

These videos generated a violent response as soon as they were uploaded.

Immediately, netizens from other cities and other countries expressed their intention to organize similar choruses.

If "One Day" was just a hit before, after this chorus, its popularity and popularity can only be described as an explosion.

Also involved in the explosion was the creator Xu Xiyu.

Because, when the video of the chorus appeared on the Internet, the video of the media interviewing the participants was also posted on the Internet.

Among them, those who were interviewed the most were naturally famous people, and the questions they asked inevitably mentioned Xu Xiyu.

"You know, Xu and I are very good friends. I like his movies, his music and his novels very much. He is indeed a very good person." Luciano said.

Luo Meng also commented: "I have seen many of his works and I know that he is a very good creator, so if there is an opportunity, I hope to cooperate with him."

"He is very charming, but it's a pity that he is not single, hahahahaha." Scarlett's comment was short, but it was the most talked about.

What foreign netizens are talking about more than him is the answer of a foreign man.

When he was asked by reporters what he thought about Xu Xiyu, the content he expressed added another impressive label to Xu Xiyu.

"I have studied Chinese, so I am very impressed by his name. I am not talking about his English name Leonardo Xu, but his Chinese name [Xu Xiyu].

People who have never studied Chinese may not know what ‘Xiyu’ means. Xi means "hope" in Chinese, and Yu means feathers, wings, and birds.

In other words, his Chinese name means "Wings of Hope". Therefore, he is a person who lives up to his name, and his qualities can be seen from his name.

Coincidentally, the lady’s Chinese name is ‘Nancy’, which also has the character ‘西’, so they should be destined friends. ”

Good guy, these words are full of "fatalism". You must know that "I have no control over my fate" is something the Chinese like to shout.

Foreigners like fatalism and bloodline theory. This can be seen from their film and television literary works. Those who are born to be kings should rule the world.

In addition, when this old man mentioned the word "feather", he folded his hands together to make a wing movement, which was very similar to a "peace dove" taking off.

Just one day later, this gesture turned out to be a symbol of "peace" and "hope."

This made both Xu Xiyu and Nancy dumbfounded.

Is this still possible? !

But when I think about it, it seems very reasonable. Foreigners can always use "signature actions" and "markers" in various activities to distinguish groups. This is their cultural habit.

Driven by this cultural habit, in the following days, "peace choruses" also appeared in many European countries such as the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Italy, including some countries in Southeast Asia.

Yes, the chorus of "One Day" has been named "Peace Cantata".

Moreover, during the chorus, you can see many people doing the "Wings of Hope" movement.

Not only that, but also in the past few days, there have been queues to buy "The Three-Body Problem" in various countries around the world.

Now, Xu Xiyu’s novels and music have reached the top.
