Every spring, we are pleasantly surprised by the vigorous vitality of everything in the world. Wang Jiaer's body also always shows a vitality full of infection.
On stage, he is sexy and mysterious; in life, he is intimate and gentle.
But this vitality is not only revealed on the outside, but also reflects the enthusiasm of the heart and curiosity about the world. When facing his own field of interest, Wang Jia'er is like a fierce tiger, with thousands of strengths and good use of brain power, so as to ensure that every attack can accurately hit the target.
He gave his all for what he longed for, but in the face of winning and losing, he showed a rare calmness, the more courageous, the more extreme, the lighter.

The tiger is good at low detection when waiting for the opportunity, slowly sneaking closer, locking in and then jumping out of the target.
From diverse styles of music, to personal music label TEAM WANG RECORDS, to personal fashion brands, he also serves as a musician, brand manager, main designer, creative director, etc. Wang Jiaer, who has multiple identities, has continued to try and explore more possibilities and surprises in the past few years.
“
I'm a person who can't stop.
”
After the shooting ended and the interview began, Wang Jiaer first confessed. The crew on set at the shooting witnessed this feature of his.
When the bag in his hand fell to the ground, Wang Jia'er, who was pulling the bag strap, blurted out with a smile: "That's my puppy!" ”

He was even more meticulous than the staff at times, and for the best shots, he would pause and ask the editor if he could move the ring to the other hand—of course, in the typical "Wang Jia'er" way of treating people, with an inquiring, deliberative tone, polite and gentle, and relaxing.
Can't stop - more reflected in Wang Jiaer's attitude to work and creation, the past 2021 can be used as an excellent footnote. This year, Wang Jiaer threw himself into team WANG, which he founded in 2017. He is a self-demanding creative artist and the owner of a strategic management team.
"I think 2021 is the most tiring year in all this time. In fact, from a few years ago to now, my whole state is very anxious, which also comes from the overall atmosphere environment around me, whether it is the people around me or the work. Because I am a person who can't stop, in addition to being an artist singer, I also want to do a company, the company contains a lot of different sections, a lot of things at the beginning of the time is not very smooth, encountered a lot of problems. Wang Jiaer said.

At present, TEAM WANG's business includes several major fields such as music production, artist management, brand incubation, and fashion brand fashion. A lot of the work this year is in the stage of laying a solid foundation, and as the target field is more and more, his self-requirements are getting higher and higher.
It seems that Wang Jiaer's self-regulation in high-intensity work is not bad, thanks to his experience in fencing as a child. At that time, he trained hard, there were almost no weekends, and the Spring Festival festivals were his rare time to spend time with his family and recuperate at home, and as soon as the holiday was over, he had to go back to continue training.
For me, 365 days is the same every day. Because I have been working since I was a child, I am very tired, there are no weekends, it seems that every day is Monday. But it depends on how you want to live, if you actively face it, in fact, every day is Sunday.
Wang Jia'er grew up in a relatively open and relaxed environment.
Therefore, the elements related to China Chic that appear in him may not come from traditional festivals, some kind of totem or monuments and humanities, but from the whole growth trajectory, from the ears of family elders, the influence of the environment and the more spiritual things that are actively input by themselves. For example, he is very family-loving, attaches great importance to the emotions between people, and has a tenacity in his bones that does not accept defeat, and so on.
In the midst of intensive work challenges, Wang Jiaer likes to walk and relax in various cities, whether in Beijing, or in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, once able to piece together the highlights of people from all over the world who met Wang Jiaer. Whenever he went to a new city, he liked to walk the streets and alleys.
"In fact, the more unfamiliar I am with the city, the more I can reduce the pressure, and the freshness and experience are quite important." If I'd already been familiar with a place, I probably wouldn't have felt so Fresh. He said.

And for this creator who has been in the state of output for a long time, this kind of holographic feeling of the nourishment of life is also quite important, "Strange cities are full of things I don't know, I just walk around, to see, to touch, to smell, to listen, I think this is life, I need to feel." 」 ”
Enjoy the competition and be comfortable with the results
"Here we go." This is the biggest feeling that the full 2021 brings to Wang Jiaer, containing confidence and prospects, everything is just open, and there are more interesting things that will come one after another.
Every time a song is released, Wang Jiaer pays attention to a variety of feedback, and he is curious about how people with different growth experiences and cultural backgrounds and musical tastes will feel differently in the same song. Especially after he formed his own company, he was more wary of a small circle of self-congratulatory behavior.
"I myself was worried that our team was too involved in music and 'went into the fire', but I didn't know how many pounds I had and couldn't recognize myself. Sending songs is not self-congratulatory for us insiders, it is for everyone to hear, so I also want to hear more people's responses, even if the response is not ideal and extreme, I want to listen to it, and there will be no emotion. The sound of all this will actually give me more inspiration. ”

Wang Jia'er looks forward to playing music with his partners and reaching more people. "Do everything we can to export our work to future generations, sharing the taste and standards of music."
From Shanghai, Hong Kong, Guangzhou and overseas in China, he grew up in a diverse and rich cultural environment. As a curious, open and inclusive person, he absorbs the nutrients of the world widely, hoping to give people more choices and experiences in music.
"It's not about breaking, it's not about how great I am, I want to tell you a concept, that is, a lot of the music production methods that have been handed down are not necessarily absolute, there is still space, and there are many options that can be Flipped over." 」
Many people must record in the big Studio with the most advanced configuration, but Wang Jiaer has a lot of songs are recorded in the living room, towel cover can be radio, he feels that the functions are the same, unless it is arranged by some companies, otherwise he will not deliberately emphasize this external trace, what is important is the final presentation of the work. He once said that making music is not only something to believe and love, but also "to do what I want to see in this industry."

Actively welcoming and enjoying competition, so diligent and hardworking, and so light and calm, seems to be the characteristics of this generation of idols, which is fully demonstrated in Wang Jiaer, who enjoys the process of competition, that is, to gain nourishment in the collision with different voices and people.
I've always loved competition, and I think competition is healthy. Because through competition, I can see more things that I didn't know before, and through this I can emit other associations, in the competition, everyone bumps back and forth in the industry environment, rather than me playing alone in the living room.
For Wang Jiaer, the attitude towards competition is also related to his early athlete career and overseas practice experience. He began learning fencing at the age of 10 with his father, Wang Ruiji, who won the individual gold medal in fencing at the Asian Games. Art may not be superior, related to personal preferences, but in competitive sports, athletes face a clear distinction between winning and losing in every competition.
In the career of overseas training trainees, Wang Jiaer has a weekly evaluation ranking related to elimination, the training hall of the trainees is on the first and second floors, as long as someone is called to the third floor, the probability is the result of notification of elimination.
He described the moment of waiting for the assessment results as nervous as waiting for the physical examination notice, "Once I was called to the third floor, very nervous, I did not know what results I was about to face, fortunately, I was just told to be a little fat during that time, to control, don't get fat." ”
In the perennial competition, he gains calmness, self-discipline and dedication.
"My character is that when it comes to the things I care about, I'll do one thing to the end, to the fullest I can; or don't waste time, don't do it. As for me staying fit and eating healthy, it's because I want to do what I like to do longer, and I want to be able to sing and dance when I'm 40 or 50. I give a concert or perform at a music festival, and everyone can see that what I give to others must be my best state, otherwise it is disrespectful to everyone. ”

To some extent, Wang Jiaer feels that from the previous serious preparation for fencing competitions, to the current music works, or the presentation of stage performances and variety shows, it is actually to create a product. The success of a product is related to the quality of the product itself, but it also involves the right time and place, "If it fails, it must be a problem, we will review it, and next time we will work hard." He felt that he could be more at ease with the results, but he must go all out to invest.
Stop once in a while, and happiness is deserved
Of course, there is no standard answer to art, and Wang Jiaer is constantly absorbing and exploring, as if he has a new feeling for music every day. The 27-year-old seems to have given people enough facets to understand and feel.
But for Wang Jiaer himself, he has a strong motivation, he wants to tell people in person who he is and what kind of person Wang Jiaer is.
Since the creation and release of the first solo single in 2017, Wang Jiaer has been roaming in various types of music for five years, "In fact, I am lost a lot of times, I have been looking, groping, and I know myself better." 」 But he only recently realized that he had never played Chinese song.
"All along my songs are about a story, but I've never told anyone who Wang Jia'er really is and what he wants to do."

That song, Wang Jia'er has already written, is a very personal Chinese song about himself.
Even though my Chinese lyrics skills may not be as good, but What's in my brain, I just write it like this, I write the words in my heart, in my head, even if it will seem more colloquial.
At this stage, music is the confession of the creator, who is eager to tell everyone who he is through a work.
"In fact, every time I perform, I want everyone to be selfish, because all walks of life are stressful, and everyone has made a difference in their field." When they came to see my show, I wanted people to put down their phones and enjoy the atmosphere with their eyes and ears. ”
At that moment of watching the performance, Wang Jiaer hoped that the audience could fully release all their most direct feelings and emotions, and start the day's efforts again tomorrow.
He likes the naturalness and leisureliness of meeting everyone on the road, and he also likes to understand and treat each other with each other when interacting with people.
"I open my heart first, you can't get in, it's your business, I don't expect you to be nice to me, or ask for anything in return." 」 He smiled brightly, "But let me open my heart door for you first, I'm just like that." ”
