Выступление невероятно талантливого Niu Niu во время Новогоднего концерта 2017 года увидело пол миллиарда человек и произвело настоящий фурор. В тот момент ему было только 10 лет. Niu Niu за одну ночь стал национальной гордостью Китая!
В тот же год Niu Niu стал единственным и самым молодым пианистом, который подписал эксклюзивный контракт с международным классическим звукозаписывающим лейблом EMI Classics, который сейчас называется Warner Classics. К тому моменту Niu Niu уже записал "Произведения Моцарта в исполнении Niu Niu", за которыми в 2010 году последовало "Полное собрание Этюдов Шопена в исполнении Niu Niu", в 2012 году он записал произведения Листа, а в 2014 году вместе с Варшавским Филармоническим оркестром - Концерт №2 для фортепьяно Рахманинова.
Также взлетом его карьеры стало приглашение на Лондонский Королевский Бал-Фестиваль в 2007 году на церемонию вручения “Жемчужного Ордена”, на котором он исполнил Концерт №1 для фортепьяно Шостаковича в присутствии Его Королевского Высочества Принца Чарльза, а также в 2010 году он стал лауреатом Премии Montblanc.
