Features: An artistic self-portrait of the renowned contemporary singer Tengger, presented in a scattered perspective that showcases the mutual selection and interaction between a person and music. From a failed suicide attempt in his youth to his wandering pursuit of education, his sudden rise to fame, the ups and downs of entering the music industry, his mysterious midlife crisis, his incisive comments on contemporary pop music, and his self-identity exploration—as a deeply affectionate person, one who always maintains a green mindset towards music, nationality, parents, and loved ones. Profound, colorful, authentic, and full of charm, it convincingly reveals why "in every one of his songs, there is a horse-headed fiddle." This book is divided into 13 chapters: "Tengger, the Meaning of Heaven," "Fourteen Years Old, Failed Suicide Attempt," "Marriage and Love, It's All About Fate," "'King of Mongolia'? Mongolian People." Tengger writes in a light and humorous tone, sharing his growth, family, love, work, and views on pop music with readers. The book is exquisitely designed and accompanied by numerous photographs, showcasing Tengger's real-life world. It seems to recreate the former king, the vast grassland with its fierce, colorful fur, the silent sky, and only the song "Heaven Sings" echoes, with no wolves in sight—only the blue wolf, which is your Mongolian homeland and our eternal paradise together. —Mangke
