HIGH-JUMPER and punk(朋克) rocker Kimi Qiao, 22, is very confident. In fact, he's something of a big mouth about his talent. "No one will ever forget me," said Qiao.
The 2007
My Show winner has recently published
Private Life, a photo-book. It records everything about the days when he was young.
As a teenager, he was a
keen athlete, training every weekend and holiday. His
event (项目) was the high jump and he won a number of national championships. He even shared a coach with Liu Xiang.
However, Qiao's parents wanted him to concentrate more on his studies and he finally went to a
university in his city. It was during this time he became interested in music. When he was 18, he took part
in a singing contest, where he met Wang Lee-hom. Later, he started a student band called Pink17. He was a drummer. Since then Qiao has known that music will be his life.
Today he's still a dreamer. He wants to make punk rock popular in China. "Although I've only been
into it for a year, I'll do my best to make it big," he said.
