Chapter 56 Piano Play
Liu Lan and Tang Tuping sat on a piano chair, one on the left and one on the right, with four equally slender and white hands placed on the keys at the same time, playing.
The two people, who had never worked together before, were indeed very out of sync during their first practice.
Halfway through playing, ** Yun stopped the song, "The rhythm is not consistent enough, Liu Man, you are one beat faster than Tang Tu. Aren't you a piano professional? Why are you trying to grab the beat?"
This was a disguised criticism. Liu Lan blushed and said, "I'm sorry."
"Don't be nervous," Tang Tu comforted her, "Take your time. If you have any questions, tell me and I'll solve them."
Tang Tu is more experienced in performance than Liu Lan and can handle big occasions. He also has this kind of aura. Perhaps this is the leadership quality of a musician. Liu Lan's mood gradually calmed down.
"Let's continue, then," said Tangtu.
"Um."
The two practiced four or five times before they were finally able to play together. It wasn't perfect, but at least the rhythm was consistent and unified, and to an outsider, it sounded very good.
...
...
Several crew members even picked up their phones to record the moment.
"I always feel like something is missing," ** Yun stroked his beard, thinking hard, but couldn't figure it out for a long time. "Forget it, don't think about it anymore. It's getting late. You guys practice it again and then go back. Tomorrow's filming will be based on this."
The next day, the official shooting took place in the concert hall of Shanghai Experimental High School.
A grand piano was placed in the center of the stage. Several cameras were pointed at the stage. Extras and crew members were sitting in the theater.
The first ten rows of the auditorium were filled.
Director Ye waved his hand and the filming began:
The host walked onto the stage and said, "Next, Duan Nanfeng and Ji Ning from Class 1 of Senior 2 will perform the piano piece The Sound of the Wind."
The lights dim.
Liu Lan followed Tang Tu onto the stage. Even though this was just a filming and not a real concert, the setting was very realistic.
Especially when the two of them stood still and the light from the ceiling shone on them, Liu Lan was stung by the light and couldn't help but block it with her hands.
The assistant director frowned and wanted to call a halt, but Ye Zian stopped him, "No, this is more natural."
Liu Lan and Tang Tu both wore performance costumes, Liu Lan in a light blue fishtail evening gown and Tang Tu in a white tuxedo. The makeup artist didn't put too much makeup on them, as that would make them look too mature.
Tang Tu is basically without makeup, and her refreshing black hair makes her skin look even fairer and more beautiful.
Liu Lan put on a light layer of makeup, her skin was fair and her face was beautiful, with curved eyebrows and watery eyes, she looked extremely pure.
The two of them are from a music college and have an artistic aura. Coupled with their outstanding looks, they attracted a group of fake audiences to look forward to the next performance.
Tang Tu made a gesture to Liu Lan to invite her in, and Liu Lan sat on the piano stool before him. After she sat down, Tang Tu sat down on the outside of her. They had rehearsed these details several times last night, and now it looked very natural and without any abruptness.
The two looked at each other, and then looked at the music score at the same time in tacit understanding.
Ye Zian asked the photographer to take a close-up of their two pairs of white and slender hands.
For Liu Lan and Tang Tu, the melody that was already very familiar rang out from their hands again - the sound of the wind, like the wind, came from all directions, penetrated the entire concert hall, and reached the ears of every listener.
Everyone seemed to be completely brought into the script:
Ji Ning is beautiful and dignified, yet she carries a deep and restrained sadness.
In this new environment, she was isolated, like a breeze, blowing towards the sky, blowing towards the distance, hopefully to heaven - beside her mother.
