Harvard Concert.

The Harvard Concert is a concert within the Harvard School.

However, because of the significance of Harvard in the country and even the world, the Harvard concert has also attracted a lot of attention.

In particular, when Jackson, the king of global pop music, was rumored to be going to Harvard, the Harvard concert became the focus of many people's attention.

However, Jackson has not released a new work for 5 years.

In other words, Jackson has not had too many classic tunes in his five years.

Although it is rumored that Jackson will go to a concert at Harvard, it is not the same as Jackson was in the 80s.

"Hey, old man, are you going to Harvard today?"

"What are you going to do at Harvard?"

"Don't you know that Jackson is said to be going to a concert at Harvard."

"Yes."

The other party wasn't too surprised, just nodded, "Forget it, I'm still not going." ”

"No, old man, do you have more important news?"

"Of course, I've been digging Tom's peachy news lately. Although Tom's influence is not as good as Jackson's, there is no doubt that Tom is in the limelight now. And, as you know, Jackson hasn't had any new works in 5 years. Presumably, he participated in the Harvard concert this time, and he also sang some of the original tunes. Except Ben, dance with you, Billie...... Beyond that, what else can you think of that he will sing? Of course, I also admit that these songs are very good, even now, they are very classic, and no one has surpassed them. After listening to it for decades, I really didn't have much interest in Jackson. Presumably, the audience, it's the same. ”

"Alright then, I'll go there alone today to see what happens."

After the two reporters finished speaking, one to the east and the other to the west, they left separately.

……

"You are Mr. Zhang Ning?"

On the Harvard campus, Zhang Ning and Jackson met before the concert.

Regarding Zhang Ning's age, Jackson was very surprised.

He thought that Zhang Ning should be a graduate student or doctoral student at Harvard, but who would have thought that Zhang Ning was just an undergraduate student in his 20s. And it looks like it will take another year or two to graduate.

"Of course, Mr. Jackson, don't you think I am?"

"This really surprised me, by the way, can I ask you, what are you studying? Don't tell me, you didn't study music. ”

"Jackson, I find your hunch is very good, I'm not a music major. My major has nothing to do with music. In fact, I studied computer science. ”

"Oh my God, how is that possible?"

Jackson felt something incredible, "It's a strange world. ”

"It's not surprising, but even though I'm not a music major, I've always enjoyed playing the piano with the keyboard."

"I ......"

Jackson was dumbfounded, he didn't know what to say about Zhang Ning anymore.

Can I play the piano with a computer?

However, it felt good to see Zhang Ning for the first time.

At least Jackson thinks it's great, and he won't be like everyone else, who adores himself when he sees him. In the end, while Jackson doesn't hate such people, at least, he admires himself too much, and it's not very good to be friends. But Zhang Ning is an outlier. On the one hand, he said that he was a fan of Jackson, but on the other hand, looking at his appearance, he didn't chase stars at all. On the contrary, after seeing himself, he regarded himself as an ordinary friend, and he did not see anything outside at all.

This made Jackson feel very good, at least, the two could talk together very smoothly.

"What am I, is it weird to play the piano on a computer? Let me tell you, in China, not to mention using a computer to play the uranium piano, there are also masters who use a computer to drive an excavator to stir-fry. ”

"Really, it's so amazing?"

Jackson seemed to take it seriously.

Zhang Ning almost fell down with laughter, I went, such a joke, Jackson actually thought it was true.

However, Zhang Ning still said solemnly, "Of course it's true, if you go to China another day, you'll know." ”

"That's great, I will definitely go to China when I have time."

The two just chatted for a while, and at this time, it seemed that a reporter had spotted Jackson.

In order not to disturb their interview, Zhang Ning stepped aside.

After these reporters were completely interviewed, Zhang Ning stepped forward.

However, after an interview, Jackson's mood seems to have changed slightly.

"Zhang, do you know how many reporters came to me to an event that year?"

Zhang Ning shook his head and said he didn't know.

Jackson stretched out a finger and gestured to Zhang Ning.

"100 of them? So much. ”

"No, Zhang, not 100, at least 1000. Almost all the media, they follow me. I had the experience of being followed by the media for several years, although it seemed like torture at the time. It's just that now it seems that the years when I was followed by people and blocked at the door of my house every day are not an honor. But now, ......"

Hearing Jackson's emotion, Zhang Ning seemed to know something.

Indeed, Jackson has entered a low point in his career since 2000.

Of course, even at the low point, he is still the king of pop music in the world.

It's just a pity, as a king of pop music, how can he endure that kind of days when no one pays attention?

There were only two or three media reporters who came here just now.

This makes Jackson, who has always been a star and has been living in the spotlight, look extremely dark.

"Actually, you don't have to."

Zhang Ning was a human being.

In his previous life, he was just an ordinary person who couldn't be more ordinary.

In this life, although he is not well-known in the world, he can be regarded as a successful person in the eyes of others.

He experienced both.

For that kind of loss, Zhang Ning didn't have much gratitude.

At this time, Jackson's sudden emotion, but Zhang Ning said, "In this life, there are highs and lows." Some are young, and some will get old. Look at that, what do you see? ”

Zhang Ning pointed to the sky, there were white clouds in the sky.

"There's something there, there's nothing, it's just a lot of clouds."

"No, that's not a cloud, that's fame, that's profit."

"Fame and fortune are like clouds, when you are high, he gathers around you, and when you are at a low point, he often goes with the wind. We have a saying in China, every qiē is a floating cloud, if you can see through it, there will be nothing. ”

"Every qiē is a floating cloud."

Jackson was shocked, and this sentence seemed to stimulate his nerves.

……

The Harvard concert has begun.

Jackson, who was sitting backstage, was still thinking about Zhang Ning's words.

He felt that he had been oppressed by fame and fortune for the past five years.

In terms of fame, don't you have it?

With his current status in the music world, I am afraid that only the Beatles and Elvis Presley can compare.

In terms of interests, he has made himself rich in music and dance.

Fame and fortune have been owned by themselves, and they still exist now.

Why do you have to chase those things outside of you?

Jackson couldn't help but remember that when he was 8 years old, he and his good friend Helen once made a wish on a shooting star.

He took out his phone and called Helen.

"Helen, do you remember the wish we made?"

"Haha, old friend, of course I remember. I want to live my life happily. My wish has come true and I am happy now. What about you, do you remember your wish back then? ”

"I remember."

Jackson fell into the memory.

He and Helen were both black in India, USA.

In the United States at that time, racial discrimination was very strict. If blacks want to survive and live well, they have to work dozens of times more than whites.

At that time, there was a saying circulating in the United States.

There are only two ways for blacks to succeed in the United States.

One is to go and play.

The other is to go and sing.

Jackson envied a black star he admired as a child, who sang on stage every day.

Mom and Dad also told him that the black star didn't need to work for a day, and he could live well as long as he sang.

In order to succeed, in order to save himself and his family from the fate of poverty, Jackson made a wish.

He said he was going to sing.

Until now, Jackson has succeeded.

His achievements have long surpassed that of the black star back then.

It's just that when the old friend asked him about his wish again, Jackson suddenly didn't know how to answer.

"Old friend, in fact, my wish has never been fulfilled."

Jackson shook his head.

He understood.

My former self, although I sang, I kept singing for others.

Although, it has also made remarkable achievements.

However, he never sang for himself.

"Still, old friend. From today onwards, I will never sing for others again, I will sing for myself. ”

Hanging up the phone, Jackson and his team entered the Harvard concert stage.

Maybe Jackson is the darling of the stage.

Or maybe Jackson was born for the stage.

The moment he stepped on the stage.

Jackson seemed to change all at once.

However, Jackson didn't care about any of this.

What he cares about is that he's only here to sing.

Yes, it's that simple.

He wasn't looking for fame at his peak.

He doesn't want anything now.

He closed his eyes and returned his memories to his childhood.

Opening his mouth, Jackson whistled.

It's like the whistle of a cowboy in the American West, and it's exotic.

However, it doesn't sound like it's the kind of whistling like a child learning from an adult, playful and naughty.

The whistle seems to be very unskilled, blow it, stop it.

However, it is such a whistle that looks unfamiliar and is just a child's play, but it seems to have a soul, and it penetrates the heart of every listener.

Everyone only felt a shock in their hearts.

Then came a song that I had never heard or felt in this style, and suddenly appeared.
