China.
CCTV live broadcast room.
As the Nobel Prize ceremony is about to end, the number of online users has dropped from 30 million to 20 million and is still decreasing.
But at this moment, the host's voice suddenly overflowed from the screen.
The voice was very excited.
"Dear audience members, don't leave!"
"Although the award ceremony has ended, the moment that belongs to us Chinese people has not yet ended."
"Next, Mr. Hu Yibao will play 'Horse Racing Song' with Mr. Zach and Mr. Berg using the traditional Chinese instrument, the erhu."
"This is also the first time that the erhu, a traditional Chinese musical instrument, has been performed at a world-class awards ceremony, which holds special historical significance."
"Also, let me give you some information about Mr. Zach. Zach's real name is Zach Mario. He's a musical prodigy renowned in the West. He excels at various instruments, including piano, violin, cello, and saxophone. He's known as the piano maniac, known for his ability to perform a wide variety of piano pieces with dazzling virtuosity."
"The band he founded at the age of 20, Dawn, has become one of the world's leading bands, and they are also the band that will be performing at the Nobel Prize ceremony this time."
"Berg is also a musical genius. He is good at violin and studied under the world's top violin master Norton. He is also a friend of Zack."
"And the two of them will perform together with Mr. Hu Yibao next."
…
Following the host's introduction.
The number of online viewers in the live broadcast room, which had originally fallen below 20 million, suddenly soared.
In the blink of an eye, it reached 30 million and is still rising.
This time, not only China, but also Western countries were very excited when the hosts heard that Hu Yibao, Zach and Berg would perform on the same stage during the live broadcast.
Sweden:
"I didn't expect that Zach and Mario, who were only conducting this time, would actually perform the piano themselves later. Ladies and gentlemen, please prepare to close your eyes and listen to this feast of virtuosity."
U.K:
"Did you hear that? Zach will be on stage, and the piano maniac will show off his skills once again. The only regret is that I heard the 'Horse Racing Song' they're playing this time was provided by Hu Yibao. It's not a world-famous piece, but probably just an unknown song from China, so don't expect too much from it."
France:
"Our country's music star, Berg, is going to perform on the violin. Cheer up, friends!"
Germany:
"Zuck and Berg are my two favorite musical geniuses. They will become music masters in the future, but I am also optimistic about Mr. Hu Yibao. I say this not because his "Lord of the Rings" series was filmed in my country, but mainly because I have seen his suona performance video of "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix", which is truly an amazing musical feast."
Beautiful Country:
"As a Nobel laureate, Hu Yibao personally performed music at the Nobel Prize ceremony. This will definitely be recorded in the history of the Nobel Prize, and people will still talk about it a hundred years later."
…
…
This moment.
Audiences from all over the world felt regretful that the Nobel Prize ceremony had not yet concluded.
Instead, I am full of anticipation for the upcoming joint music performance by Hu Yibao, Zach and Berg.
…
…
The Nobel Prize award ceremony.
on stage.
The members of the "Chenxi" band who were originally performing were leaving one after another under everyone's gaze.
Zack, who was originally in charge of conducting on the stage, had changed into a dazzling red tuxedo at some point, with an iris in his left breast pocket. He held a erhu in both hands and slowly walked towards Hu Yibao.
Hu Yibao, who was originally sitting in his seat, saw Zack coming. He handed the medal and certificate to Academician Zhang Yi for temporary safekeeping, then immediately stood up and walked towards Zack.
"Teacher Hu, this is your erhu!"
Zach respectfully handed the erhu to Hu Yibao.
"Thank you!" Hu Yibao took it and said with gratitude.
"You're welcome." Zach said nonchalantly, then lowered his voice and continued to say to Hu Yibao, "Teacher Hu, your 'Horse Racing Song' is really great!"
“While I was playing, I felt like my piano was about to explode!”
The look in Zack's eyes when he looked at Hu Yibao was unusually hot.
He was very excited at this moment.
Zack is a person who likes to show off his skills, and "Horse Racing Song" is a piece that is very suitable for showing off skills on the piano.
Even when playing, Zack inexplicably felt that he was in the endless grassland, with a strong and proud warhorse sitting under his crotch, and thousands of horses following behind him, galloping across the vast grassland.
This feeling is really wonderful.
Zach couldn't forget.
It's not just Zack. Berg also felt this kind of passionate and enthusiastic feeling when he played "Horse Racing Song" on the violin.
"Really?" Hu Yibao, who had become the "God of Piano," naturally understood that feeling. He glanced at Zach and chuckled, saying, "That's really great."
"Teacher Hu, thank you very much for providing me with such a great song, 'Horse Racing Song'. I will perform it well next time." Berg nodded quickly and said.
"Horse Racing Song" was provided by Hu Yibao. In Berg's opinion, it should also have been written by Hu Yibao, because this song is very suitable for erhu.
In terms of the timbre of the erhu, it is simply tailor-made for the erhu.
Zach would not think that he could use the piano to suppress Hu Yibao's erhu playing of "Horse Racing Song". After all, Zach had witnessed Hu Yibao's erhu playing skills with his own eyes.
He is simply the god of erhu.
At the same time, Zack could also imagine how shocked those people who belittled Chinese musical instruments and music would be after hearing "Horse Racing Song".
That’s right, Zack already knew what was being discussed. Now, standing at the edge of the stage, he could still hear one or two harsh comments coming over from time to time.
"Haha, 'Horse Racing Song'? I can't find any such song online. It's probably a song Hu Yibao pulled out from nowhere. It really is a bit of a disservice to the Nobel Prize stage."
"I had no expectations for Hu Yibao's performance. I just wanted to experience the atmosphere."
If he could hear it, Hu Yibao could naturally hear it too.
Zack secretly looked at Hu Yibao, and seeing his calm expression, he couldn't help but admire him in his heart.
"What kind of calmness does it take to ignore the ridicule of others?"
