Chapter 188 Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

At this moment, Xia Yan, who was far away in Yuezhou, also saw the short video that Ganfanren posted online, a short video of Lin Fan playing the piano.

Xia Yan's piano attainments were very high, and she knew all the famous piano pieces on Blue Star by heart, but she had never heard the piece played by Lin Fan.

The theme of this song is romantic and dreamy, with six quarter notes and one half note forming a light melody. Each note is like a freely flying elf, waving its transparent wings shining with starlight, casting magic on the hearts of the listeners, bringing freedom and laughter.

Xia Yan is a genius in the field of music. He analyzed the entire piece of music in his mind while listening.

The first paragraph of this piece of music hints at the theme. The dreamy and romantic atmosphere makes people feel as if they are in a fairy tale country, where they can touch the magic with just a stretch of their hands.

In the second section, the clever introduction of 16th notes and chromatic scales creates a gorgeous effect. Then, the heavy arpeggios in the left hand quickly appear, and the arpeggios in the right hand also produce beautiful tones.

Here, the left hand's performance across 10 degrees requires great skill... Here it returns to tranquility again... The right hand starts with an octave scale, and a majestic feeling arises spontaneously!

The key has changed! It changes to C minor, then back to C major... The tempo starts to change to adagio. Xia Yan knows that the piece is about to enter the final section. This gentle and mellow atmosphere has the effect of a slow movement before the final variation.

As expected, in the short video, Lin Fan starts with a fast passage with his left hand, at a very fast speed, and ends with a large-span crescendo.

The song is over! Xia Yan watched the short video speechlessly. After Lin Fan finished playing, he unconsciously clenched his hands. This was the discomfort in his fingers after he neglected practice for a long time and played a song with a difficulty of at least level 8.

At the beginning, Xia Yan helped Lin Fan buy the piano because Lin Fan accidentally revealed that he could play the piano, but unfortunately Xia Yan had never heard Lin Fan play it once. So Xia Yan didn't know how good Lin Fan was at playing the piano, but he didn't expect Lin Fan to give him such a big surprise.

Lin Fan did not make any mistakes in his overall performance, his tone was well controlled, and his emotional processing was very delicate. However, it gave Xia Yan a very strange feeling, that is, Lin Fan's skills and emotions were very good, but he felt a little unfamiliar with the piano, as if he had not touched it for a long time.

Maybe I really haven't practiced enough.

Lin Fan's childhood life should be very exciting, right? This is not the key point. The key point is that Xia Yan has never heard this song before. Is it Lin Fan's original creation? If so, then Lin Fan's musical talent is too high. From pop music to rock music, to piano music, is there anything Lin Fan can't do?

…

At the same time, a short video of Lin Fan playing the piano that was posted online also sparked a heated discussion, mainly due to a comment.

[You annoying little goblin: I am a student at the Central Conservatory of Music and have never heard of this piece. I asked other classmates and teachers and they also haven’t heard of it. Is this an original piano piece? ]

This comment was followed by several other comments with similar content. The people who left the comments first stated their identities. They were either students at a music conservatory, music teachers, or people from a music store. They all said that this was the first time they heard this song.

Such comments stood out among the crowd of people praising Lin Fan for his "versatility" and "beautiful piano playing" and were quickly pushed to the top.

Some people even forwarded the video to other platforms to ask more people if they had heard this song. But the answer they got was: never.

As more and more responses came out, one answer gradually surfaced: This is Lin Fan’s original piano piece! …

“A-choo!”

Lin Fan finally completed his daily mandatory task, but suddenly sneezed loudly. Lin Fan looked at the still scorching sun outside and was a little suspicious: "It's so hot, I won't catch a cold, right? Did someone scold me again?"

Lin Fan didn't care. He had been scolded so much by the trolls online recently that he was somewhat immune to it. He had other important things to do now.

"Yu Mengmeng!"

Lin Fan shouted towards the garden.

“Here I come!”

Yu Mengmeng immediately ran over, "What's wrong?"

Lin Fan handed a painting to Yu Mengmeng: "The gift I promised you!"

Yu Mengmeng took it and looked at it, a little dissatisfied: "Fanfan, you are too perfunctory to me, other girls have sketches, but mine is just an enlarged photo!"

I spent several days preparing a surrealist style painting for you, and you actually said I was perfunctory? Lin Fan laughed angrily: "Thank you for the compliment."

Yu Mengmeng was stunned for a moment, looked down at the painting in her hand, and then looked at Lin Fan: "Is this a painting?"

Lin Fan sneered.

"Ahhhh! This is a painting!"

Yu Mengmeng was going crazy. This was exactly the same as the photo, but it was actually drawn?

Yu Mengmeng couldn't believe her eyes, because in the portrait, she could clearly see every hair and even the lines on her lips. It was more detailed than a photo, so Yu Mengmeng thought it was a photo! "Fanfan, you are awesome! I love this gift so much, I want to take a picture of it and post it on WeChat Moments!"

Yu Mengmeng quickly took a photo of the portrait, and then posted it on her Moments, Weibo account, group, Kuaiyin and other platforms to show off.

Yu Mengmeng's grandfather and mother, who were far away at home, were sitting in the garden of the Yu family villa drinking afternoon tea and talking about Yu Mengmeng.

The old man was a little unhappy: "Meng Meng has been traveling for such a long time, why didn't you call back?"

The mother smiled and comforted the old man: "Mengmeng is having a good time. She probably didn't think about it for a while. She will call back in two days."

"Hmph, take a look at her circle of friends to see if she has posted any photos." The old man wasn't really complaining, he just missed his granddaughter a little.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Okay." Mom readily agreed and opened her phone to check Yu Mengmeng's Moments. "She actually posted a photo. Dad, look."

The old man took the phone and saw that Yu Mengmeng had taken a lot of photos. He clicked on them one by one and looked at them: "Mengmeng, this girl, must have had a lot of fun. No wonder she didn't call home! So many people... Hey, who is this?"

The old man enlarged a photo with his fingers, looked at it for a while, and enlarged it again until it couldn't be enlarged any further.

Seeing the old man staring at a photo in silence, my mother couldn't help but ask, "Dad, what's wrong with this photo?"

The old man said in a serious tone: "This is not a photo, this is a painting."

“Painting?” Mom looked at the painting on the photo. It was so detailed that even the eyelashes were clearly visible. It turned out that it was not a photo, but a painting?

The old man was also surprised: "This is a very popular surrealist style in China in recent years. I don't know if you still remember that a few months ago, someone in China offered 70 million to collect a painting in this style, but the painter himself was not willing to sell it."

I didn’t expect that my granddaughter would actually get a painting like this, and it was a painting of herself.

"Ask Mengmeng how much this painting cost?" My granddaughter is silly, so don't be fooled.

Although his granddaughter couldn't afford tens of millions, at most a few million, it wouldn't be a loss to buy such a painting. But the old man was worried that his granddaughter didn't lose money, but suffered losses in other ways.

When the mother clicked on the caption that accompanied the photo, she was stunned.

"What's wrong?"

"Meng Meng said this was a gift from her idol..."

That means no money was spent.

The old man's eyes were as big as copper bells: "Ask Mengmeng if her idol has any gifts to give her?"

Mother:"……"

Do you still want to be a fan of the same idol as your granddaughter?
