郎朗──我用钢琴改变世界 (Journey of a Thousand Miles: My Story – Traditional Chinese Edition)

如果你的两岁儿子是一个音乐天才，而你只是贫穷的小公务员，根本没钱没人脉栽培他接受名师指导，你该怎么办？这本书，是一出真实得令人心痛流泪的家庭戏剧：一位百年难得一见的音乐天才、永不放弃的执着父亲、为爱牺牲的温柔母亲，他们以近乎偏执的强烈意志，冲破世俗困境，终而缔造了灿烂的传奇──郎朗。

郎朗，被票选为即将改变世界的二十位年轻人之一。他的钢琴演奏获得美国布希总统等世界领袖，以及傅聪、祖宾．梅塔等音乐大师的热烈鼓掌，英国查尔斯王储甚至为之流泪。国际媒体亦赞誉他完美的演奏、激昂的诠释，拉近了年轻人与古典音乐之间的距离，《华尔街日报》甚至说：「如果郎朗是一支股票，我借钱也要买。」

本书是第一本由郎朗亲笔撰写的成长故事。他在书中坦率地陈述了「竞争」、「赢」、「梦想」、「坚持」等信念，在他成功路上所扮演的重要角色。这种对于成功的热切渴望与破釜沉舟的追求，对于望子成龙的家长、渴望成功的年轻人来说，极具鼓舞与启示。

同时，这也是一场跨越世纪与国界的音乐之旅。郎朗的音乐之路，以及书中次第出场的当代音乐大师，他们对音乐的阐述，即将颠覆我们对于古典音乐的刻板感受。

If your two-year-old son is a musical genius, and you are just a poor little civil servant, there is no money and no connections to train him to accept the guidance of a famous teacher, what should you do? This book is a truly heart-wrenching family drama: a musical genius who is rare in a century, a persistent father who never gives up, and a gentle mother who sacrificed for love. They broke through the world’s predicament with a strong will that is almost paranoid. , And finally created a brilliant legend ─  Lang Lang.

Lang Lang was voted as one of the twenty young people who will change the world. His piano performance won by US President Bush and other world leaders, as well as Fu Cong and Zubin. The enthusiastic applause of Mehta and other music masters made the British Crown Prince Charles even weeping. International media also praised him for his perfect performance and passionate interpretation, which narrowed the gap between young people and classical music. The Wall Street Journal even said: “If Lang Lang is a stock, I have to borrow money to buy it.”

This book is the first growth story written by Lang Lang. In the book, he frankly stated the important role of “competition”, “win”, “dream”, “persistence” and other beliefs in his success. This kind of eager desire for success and the pursuit of breaking the boat is very encouraging and enlightening for parents who hope to succeed and young people who are eager for success.

At the same time, this is also a musical journey that spans centuries and national boundaries. Lang Lang’s music journey, and the contemporary music masters who appeared in the book for the second time, their exposition of music is about to subvert our stereotyped feelings about classical music.
