According to the US "Bloomberg BusinessWeek" website reported on March 12, Christopher Neeson is now 27 years old. He has light brown hair, blue eyes, and a strong chin that looks like he's just stepped down the assembly line of a global pop star factory.
To his fans, he is Christopher; for his record label, Warner Music, Denmark, he is the "Danish version of Justin Bieber." He sang songs in English, almost all about love.
Critics may argue that Christopher's songs lack imagination. But he is remarkable in Denmark and China.
Since 2014, all 12 of Christopher Nissen's singles released in China have entered the top 10 of the charts; eight of them are ranked first. He has performed in several major cities in China and sung at press conferences held by Huawei.
In 2013, China's music industry had lower revenues than Denmark's. That has now changed. Baidu operates a paid streaming music service platform, and other major Chinese internet companies have invested billions of yuan in their own streaming services.
In 2017, China became one of the top ten music markets in the world for the first time. By 2020, it could be in the top five.
The world's major record labels and showbiz players are racing to invest in China, striking deals with streaming services and opening offices.
Alex Taggart, an adviser to Extra Music Group, said, "If we do it right, China could become the world's largest and healthiest music market. The group advises record labels and artists on self-promotion in China.
Christopher has made more money in China than in Denmark or anywhere else, and he has visited China eight times in the past four years.
Currently, he is learning Mandarin and hopes the new album will make him a household name from Guangzhou to Harbin.
"In China, there is no clear and feasible approach," he said. It's a very young market, especially for international artists. Can we start from scratch? I am an experimental subject. ”
