About to bring American Idol heartthrob - Adam Lambert concert in Shanghai to British national treasure Band - Queen (Queen) is our true friend. Queen, formally established in 1971, has four members: vocalist Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, drummer Roger Taylor and bassist John Deacon. Chinese fans affectionately call them tooth t, Mr. Boey, flower and sparkling. Jun below home as we sort out what these 40 years several international friends how to chase Chinese dream show, how silently support us in case we know nothing of.
1974
Queen's debut three years in the third album, Sheer Heart Attack, a collection so that they finally hit it big classic song Killer Queen. Golden song sounds beautiful but also with classical glamorous range of children have to make our fans very excited about this one:
Met a man from China
Went down to Geisha Minah
From that time, this great band began to dream of China.
1980
Baidu bar where Queen "Queen and China," the post mentioned:
"With 80 years after Queen worldwide tour was a great success, the conquest of South America, Africa, Asia and Europe, a large audience, they naturally think of those socialist countries .Queen harder to break is ambitious, they really want to put their music spread to every corner of the world. but from another perspective, they are very open to the idea of the absolute in the West, it is very tolerant. they can get rid of all secular prejudices, even Governments around the barrier, in order to allow all the different races, people of different faiths are able to listen to music, be happy, forget hatred, infamy at the back to open the concert. (Concerts are examples of Argentina and South Africa), so in 86 years they came to the camp of socialist countries in Eastern Europe, became one of the first so-called "iron curtain" behind the sounds of western band. (Do not forget that, although the full game, and their actual concert and did not earn much money) . "
"Freddie said in an interview in the 1980s, he has repeatedly said that he wanted to sing most of the place is" Russia and China "."
Home monarch ever seen or heard of these interviews, but unfortunately it is difficult to find them.Every time Freddie mentioned China when the total people very regrettable, because in 1985 they really almost came to China. "Queen and China" mentioned:
"1985 Queen plans to begin to come to China concert however was responsible for advocacy and liaison with the Chinese guy bent on George Michael's Wham into the Chinese market has become the leader. So he carefully prepared the two publicity book - in a illustration is Freddie on stage, dressed in the most bizarre, the most crazy behavior, which description is the culmination of rendering exaggeration, while the other set is all George Michael audience photos, selected all sat , dressed decent middle-class image. Predictably, the Chinese side of course, choose the mighty. so there will be a mighty substituted Queen 85 Chinese concert. "
In fact, George Michael is super pink Queen, Queen quite like him. . . .
Principals and flower mentioned in a recent interview, when China, the culture of which we do not need.
in 1989
1989 Queen out an album called The Miracle. The CD version of the album (CD album regarded as the earliest history) the last one is the principal music a Chinese Torture (waterboarding, not China XX). That song caused a lot of misunderstanding in the fans. A lot of people think that 89 years associated with an event, the results greatly wronged Queen.
Chinese Torture this song first appeared in the last few games in 1986 Magic tour as president of the guitar solo part, included in the last album, The Miracle May 22, 1989 issue of.
Please keep their eyes open to see the point in time.
1991
Unfortunately, this year due to AIDS tooth t die, sparkling too sad, Exit entertainment, only two plum struggling continuation of the legendary Queen. Queen, as a whole, China's dream could not be realized.
1997
In the case of China this Far Eastern country without consciousness, but in principal this year, as an astronomer, first set foot on Chinese soil, observing total solar eclipse, and then created a China Belle, included in his 1998 released solo album "Another World" in. Recently principals in the "China Daily" and other domestic media interview, revealed this unforgettable experience.
However, he was more detailed description of the trip as early as 2004 in reply to the users @Belle_Queenie:
"Actually, I had a few years to go to Beijing, Inner Mongolia, observing total solar eclipse ... and then go sit on the outskirts of Beijing through the bus, I saw a lot of beautiful Chinese girl, I could not help but play a naive fantasy and mystery Westerners I romance Chinese girls. most rock songs inspired by the United States, such as Kansas City, for example, Chicago and so on, but at this moment, but suddenly there is a write a description of Beijing 'cowboy Town' in a Chinese girl with a desire to help fool the West boy's story. so this song on the coach brewing success. I had a great time this trip, I hope one day I will come back. "

Plum 21st century, whether in a separate interview, or later when the team with Paul Rodgers tour, all of the Chinese obsession. In some interviews, Plum have repeatedly said the Queen then conquered the world, is not able to conquer China. Home Jun swear read these interviews, just can not find it.
In contrast with the principal, not a flower like on social media exposed persons (official website has just put a long-term according to Zhang Shuai and stars), with plum interview, he also said that the flower is always hiding behind the principal, headmaster let his utterance. We have seen the interview, the majority of principals and principals often express their views in all kinds of social media, to interact with the fans, but some parts of the flower and is clearly representative of the band's attitude.
Concerned about China's AIDS epidemic
After the death of the tooth t, brokers and other members of the band set up a charitable fund to fight AIDS Mercury Phoenix Trust. Since then, the Queen has been committed to the global AIDS prevention and control activities. They knew nothing in our case, we have been concerned about China's AIDS epidemic, in many interviews on AIDS in China are mentioned.

2004 @Belle_Queenie principals to reply when, in the case of a letter does not mention AIDS, offered to hope to do something for China's AIDS prevention and control actions:
If this is not international friends. . . .
President both in his official blog, or interact privately with Chinese fans in every moment does not exhibit significant individual attention to the band to China, yearning and friendship:
In 2002, "New York Times" reported on the Chinese Ministry of Culture officials to learn from Broadway, also placed in the principal's official website. That year, the band has just released the Queen rock musical We Will Rock You.
In 2004, the principal in reply to users @Belle_Queenie wrote:

Also referred to as astronomers once again to Beijing to watch the solar eclipse through a very beautiful, but also the future can show Chinese official to throw some hope. And every time the same reply, very grateful Queen's principal work has been appreciation in China.
In 2012, a Canadian fan letter to the principal, said the Government has gone back in Toronto does not prohibit shark fin, considered the Chinese community which led to obstruction, as the principal conservationists said, I believe that the Chinese are not all think so, definitely the impact of the economic interests of related parties.

Another bad eyesight due to glaucoma surgery done, and in recent years has ears deaf, hearing aids need to use all year round. Even so, they did not give up my grandfather to Chinese audiences for the most exciting performances of the greatest dreams - they do it for the money, fame and wealth to do? Just a We Will Rock You, We Are The Champions Bohemian Rhapsody or let them go down in history need to worry. They seek, perhaps share of rock immortality, eternal spirit of music, would bring joy and dreams of people around the world, would make the world full of peace and love, obsession, and unable to perform with two other teammates Like China's yearning and love.
