Vitas' entry to the Asian market took place in 2005.
Mentality and perception was absolutely different
from ours, the lack of knowledge of Russian were not
on the way for dozen thousands of admirers from
China, Taiwan, Singapore and Japan first to pay
attention and then to love Vitas' creative work, his
voice and songs. At the end of 2004 the site Vitas
China Online was opened, and now the number of
registered members of this the fan-club has exceeded
20 thousand people. There are more than 380 thousand
people in the guest book. More than 600 fan-clubs
have been formed in this region for half a year.
Letters from Chinese friends overfill an electronic
box of the actor daily. But they are pleasant
problems.
Here some extracts from the letters of Chinese fans:
QIAN YING: He is like an elf, an angel who has come
down from the sky. He is like a running river,
dehiscent flowers, birds' singing... He is a divine
gift, and we should thank the Lord that we live with
him on our planet...
Every morning I wake up, I switch on CD and listen
to Vitas. They say, I'm mad... And I say "yes"...
Nobody else make me feel music like that... but
Vitas... He does not just sing, he opens his soul
for us ...
ZHU YE: He has hooked me, and I am going mad... He
is like a star which flickers in the distance... Now
he is full of fine thin nobleness, and now he is a
real tempter... He can be a naughty boy with a
charming smile... And I love him...
AILEEN ZHANG: He's a real miracle of our world. To
the world where there is no belief, no dream, love
and beauty, a boy, a prince has comes from the star.
He's one of the heaven-sent.
I hopelessly fell in love with his voice at first
sound. It's both a magnificent and an exciting
thing. I have never heard such a voice. His music
can be called magic, his songs are full of feelings,
which are common for all mankind. His magic art has
touched me. It opens fine world in front of me where
only a pure sound and a pure soul exist. He's a
dream for us, a beautiful, romantic, endless
dream...
