"This is Vanus's "Ninth Minor". "Ninth Minor" is mainly about gentleness. It was in 1882. Vanness met a girl on the banks of the Line River, and then..."
"Um."
"This is a famous Finnish folk song. It was adapted by Bert himself. It was very popular at the beginning of the 18th century. It was previously performed in the largest concert hall in Vienna. It was called "Mountain Girl" and the translation is..."
"Okay, play it for me."
"This is Custer's piano music. In the early seventeenth century, a piano piece that was commonly used was called "Dawn." Its meaning is very simple. It is said that Custer composed the score when he was in the most difficult time.
After he came out, Custer was completely deaf, so he only played once, and he played it when he couldn't hear..."
"Castle? Are you deaf? "Dawn", okay, I'll listen..."
"..."
"..."
This is a huge stage.
There were only two people on the stage, Lu Yuan and Wang Jinxue.
The rows of seats under the stage were empty and empty.
Wang Jinxue's voice was very clear on this huge stage, as if there were some echoes.
This echo, accompanied by the empty seats below and a hint of shining light, turned out to be extremely weird.
Wang Jinxue was very serious when introducing these pianists. After introducing each pianist, she would play the representative works of these pianists.
The lives and creative backgrounds of all the familiar pianists in the world came to Lu Yuan's ears along with the piano music one after another. He concentrated on listening to every note in these piano music with unprecedented attention, and every note was
A hint of chord, every pitch change is not missed.
He hopes to find a key that can awaken the melody in his heart.
Wang Jinxue played very seriously. After each piece, she would stop and look at the piano score, and then help Lu Yuan introduce the next piece. Before each piece, she would use a worried expression.
He looked at Lu Yuan, whose eyes were red and seemed to be possessed.
Lu Yuan at this moment felt extremely strange to her.
as if……
Just like a different person.
"Are you okay? How about we stop first?"
"Jinxue, it's okay, I'm okay!"
"If you really can't do it, don't force yourself, after all..."
"It's okay! Jinxue, continue!"
"good."
Lu Yuan shook his head, his eyes getting redder and redder, and a trace of sweat seeping from his forehead, but he still said these two words.
After hearing these two words, Wang Jinxue fell silent.
He continued to turn to the next piano piece and continued to play silently.
Piano music echoed in this hall, over and over again.
Time passed little by little.
Just when Wang Jinxue finished playing "Neil River in the Snow" and was about to change to the next song, she suddenly heard Lu Yuan clenching his fists and lowering his head.
"No! It's not this sound, no!"
"ah?"
"Jinxue, I suddenly realized that it was not this sound, it was not the sound of this piano. No matter how I played the piano, it didn't seem to sound like that..."
"Then, change to a piano?"
"Well, another one, continue playing "Neil River in the Snow"..."
"good……"
"..."
"..."
"No, it's not this sound. The piano here doesn't seem to be the same. It's not right. There's something wrong with the sound!"
When Lu Yuan finished listening to the piano music again, he shook his head.
Then, he raised his head and stood up.
"I need, a very, very hoarse, that kind of, very, indescribable, but very saturated sound. How to say this kind of sound... um... I need a piano!"
"..."

evening.
The sun sets in the west.
The entrance of the Musterdam Concert Hall was crowded with countless reporters and famous Spanish musicians.
Police cars surrounded the entire concert hall, and the police officers stared vigilantly at the surging crowds in the distance, ready to respond to various emergencies.
There are even three helicopters patrolling overhead, reporting the situation here and points of attention every few minutes.
This is a very special time for the whole of Spain.
Everyone is staring at the concert hall, either nervous, looking forward to it, excited, or crazy...
After the sunset officially set, the door of the concert hall slowly opened.
Then, they saw a Chinese beauty walking out of it. Behind the beauty was a young man wearing short sleeves, with red eyes, and who was in a trance.
The originally noisy environment suddenly became quiet.
A middle-aged man walked over impatiently.
"Mr. Lu Yuan, how's it going? That song "Destiny"..."
"Sorry, the piano here is not the piano I want."
"What kind of piano do you need?"
"I don't know, but none of these pianos sound the way I want..."
"That……"
"Can you do me a favor?"
"Ah, Mr. Lu Yuan, if you have anything to ask for, just say it. We will use all the power we can to help you, and the entire international piano community will also find ways to help you!"
"Then, please excuse me, I..."
Lu Yuan looked up at the sky, then took something out of his pocket, and then he found that his pocket was empty.
He suddenly found that he was not used to it, and his whole state was very strange.
Of course, he can escape from this state at any time if he wants to.
"Is there any smoke?"
"Ah, no, how about cigars?"
"Then let's have a cigar."
"good."
Lu Yuan lit the cigar, put it in his mouth and sucked it, then felt that it didn't taste that way, and finally shook his head.
"Is there any red orchid?"
"ah?"
"That's right, do you buy Honglan cigarettes in Spain?"
"???"
"All right."
Facing the middle-aged man's confused expression, as if he had never heard of it before, Lu Yuan didn't know what to say for a while.
Lu Yuan has actually given up smoking and hasn't touched a cigarette for more than a year.
but……
He really wants to smoke one now.
In fact, it is not so much that I want to smoke, but that I want to feel something.
Ever since it was confirmed that the problem was not with the piano music, but with the feeling of the piano, Lu Yuan felt weird.
…………………………………………
"Mr. Lu Yuan, is this the piano?"
"no."
"Is that this one?"
"It's not..."
"That's..."
"I need an old-fashioned piano with a very special feeling. How do you say that kind of piano? The price should be no more than 10,000. It has a little pattern. The sound of the piano does not sound so nice. It is a bit like,
Just like an old antique piano, except..."
"Old antique piano...I understand. We will do our best to help you find the piano you described, as soon as possible."
"Well, Mr. Misri, that's really troublesome for you."
"It's no trouble. Being able to witness the birth of a piece of history with my own eyes and being able to participate in it is a great honor for me. Mr. Lu Yuan, it is really my greatest honor to be able to help you."
"..."
July 4th.
In the largest piano hall in Madrid, Spanish music master Misri wears glasses, is very polite, and at the same time introduces every piano in the piano hall seriously. Every time he introduces a piano, Lu Yuan will personally
Try the sound inside the piano. After trying it, he will shake his head and feel dissatisfied.
None of these pianos sound like that.
Misri was not unhappy after seeing Lu Yuan eliminate all the pianos in the piano hall. Instead, he excitedly watched Lu Yuan get into the car and leave.
The midday sun gave off a slight heat wave.
However, Misri did not feel this way at all.
Because he knew that the whole world was paying attention to Lu Yuan's trip to Spain. Even except for Lu Yuan's private life such as sleeping and eating, the whole process was followed by cameras, and it was shot live like a documentary.
If Lu Yuan truly completes "Destiny", then...
This recorded video will be extremely precious and will be recorded in the annals of piano history!
And he, Misri, will become one of the figures in the annals of history.
Therefore, he felt extremely honored.
"Hello, hello... Mr. Lu Yuan means that he hopes to find that kind of classical piano music. We need pianos used by many great pianists, such as Vanus, such as Bert, such as..."
"Yes, I think we need relevant leaders in Spain to collect pianos from other piano museums... I hope to borrow these pianos... It won't take long, just one day..."
"Historical relics? I know they are historical relics, but after hundreds of years, who can guarantee that the piano used by Mr. Lu Yuan will not become a cultural relic?"
"..."
"..."
…………………………
Lu Yuan and his wife went to the hospital to see Brando.
Brando was still asleep, but the doctor said with a surprised expression when he introduced the condition to Lu Yuan and the other two.
Although no miracle has been officially seen, Brando's physical condition is recovering little by little, and Brando's desire to survive has never been stronger.
If this progress is followed, Brando really hopes to be out of danger and truly enter the recovery stage in a week.
It is really not easy for someone who is over eighty years old to still have such vitality.
In short, the condition began to look optimistic.
a week...
Lu Yuan touched his chin.
In other words, do I still have one week left?
It seems that there is no need to rush.
"Lu Yuan, Teacher Brando's condition is stable now, you also need to take a good rest..."
"Hmm... Jinxue, I thought about it, I might need to go to my elementary school. There seems to be a piano there... maybe I can get the answer there."
"primary school?"
"Well, yes, I want to go back to China to visit the elementary school I went to. I suddenly realized that the sound of the piano in my memory should be the sound of the old piano. By the way, in addition, there are
My teacher Xu..." Lu Yuan's frown gradually relaxed, and he finally came up with an answer very seriously.
"good!"
"Lu Yuan, I have an international news here... It seems that Mr. Misri's understanding of you is somewhat biased..."
"Ah? Deviation?"
………………………………
"World news, world news!"
"Spain sent a request for help and wanted to borrow the pianos of famous pianists such as Vannes from the International Museum for use in creation..."
"Brando is in critical condition. Please lend a helping hand to this world's top pianist who is about to go to heaven!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
July 5th.
There have been numerous calls from the world piano community.
"or……"
"But, this is a historical relic. If he really..."
"Try it, there will be no problem. Experts have tested it and said that this piano can still be played, and the quality is very good in all aspects..."
"No, this is too risky!"
"However, "Für Elise", "Ode to Joy", "Dream Wedding", and "Moonlight" are all very important, and then, the song "Destiny" is also..."
In the famous piano museum in France, several old people hesitated and looked at the piano on the far left of the museum...
Then...
Their hearts are bleeding.
There is no problem in borrowing this thing for exhibition, but...
If you play.
That……
Too risky!
However, if you don't borrow it...
That……
"Borrow it, we'll follow you there too! Make sure it's safe..."
"Well, good!"
Just when these old people finally made their decision, they had no idea that Lu Yuan on the Spanish side was scratching his head in confusion, preparing to ask Misri to explain that this was actually an own incident...
