There are some things in the world that can be done well through hard work and investment regardless of the cost.
For some things, if you don't have talent, no matter how hard you work, no matter how much you invest, it won't help.
A typical representative of this is artistic creation.
In the field of art, talent can be roughly divided into two types.
One is the talent for learning and playing, and the other is the talent for creation.
People with creative talent basically have the talent for learning and playing.
But more people only have the talent for learning and playing, but no creative talent.
You can make up for your laziness with hard work in learning and playing, but if you are not good at creating, you will not even be able to touch the door without talent.
As long as through systematic training and persistent study, almost everyone can become a qualified craftsman, but not an artist.
Many piano teachers spend their whole lives teaching piano, but they still cannot write a beautiful piece of music.
Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent hard work.
The second half of this sentence is "Of course the inspiration is the most important."
The so-called inspiration refers to creative talent.
Chen Feng has neither creative talent nor talent for learning and performance.
But fortunately, he can get the standard answer first and then reverse the process.
He doesn't create, he only transports.
So what Chen Feng has to do now is to work hard to make himself, who has no talent, a qualified performance craftsman.
Chen Feng is also very lucky.
That is, based on his talent level, if he uses his spare time to slowly figure it out in the real world, it will take him at least five or six years to get started in playing, and an average level of talent will take about two or three years.
His situation was really embarrassing.
Without this dream-like dream, by the time he learned how to reproduce the entire piece of music, five or six years would have passed and he would have forgotten all about it.
Moreover, if he studied music off-duty like this in the real world, he would starve to death on the streets.
This is simply not feasible.
But now, he has entered the "dream" again and gained an extra year out of thin air.
Although he wasted two months in the military camp, he still had ten months left.
And it’s ten months without work, social interaction, and any distractions!
Therefore, his ten months are equivalent to five or six years!
Stolen time is particularly valuable, so Chen Feng set a strict time schedule for himself.
I get up at seven o'clock every morning and read a book in the morning. The purpose of reading is to learn music theory and read music.
After lunch, I slept for half an hour, and in the afternoon I started playing with my guitar. Even if it kept getting stuck intermittently, I had to finish playing the guitar accompaniment over and over again.
The time schedule in the evening is relatively free. He can watch some art tutorial videos and go to bed on time at twelve o'clock.
Although the history is covered up, these entertainment and artistic things are very detailed and have everything you need.
Time flies, and more than nine months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Calluses gradually formed on Chen Feng's fingers.
The floor of the balcony where he often sat and practiced piano had two footprints as smooth as mirrors worn out by his shoes.
Dozens of strings that he had replaced were piled in the corner.
His playing posture was still not chic, and even looked a bit clumsy, but he was finally able to play the complete accompaniment of the two songs on the guitar smoothly and accurately.
In addition to "Boring", the other song is "Deep at Night", both of which are Zhong Lei's early works.
"Dark at Night" is relatively more mature than "Boring". Although the song title is quite freehand, this song is actually a very explosive rock style.
Chen Feng only remembered two songs.
In addition to the guitar, the accompaniment also includes a variety of musical instruments such as piano, bass, drums, guzheng, organ, grand violin, tuba, etc.
Experienced performers know how to find rhythm and nodes, and analyze and summarize the rules to facilitate memory. It is not so difficult to memorize the next piece of music.
Like some saliva songs, even though the whole song lasts for several minutes, it is actually just a constant combination of two or three chords over and over again.
After understanding the chords thoroughly and then combining them, the framework of the entire song will emerge.
But Chen Feng couldn't do it. He hadn't studied long enough, wasn't proficient, didn't know other instruments, and had a poor sense of music. He could only memorize every note of each instrument.
It's like someone who is insensitive to numbers reciting pi to hundreds or thousands of digits after the decimal point.
It's like a high school student reciting "Chen Qing Biao".
The whole person is very twisted.
In the small and dark basement space, Chen Feng lay quietly on the slightly musty leather sofa, closing his eyes tightly and chanting something like a sutra.
He was recalling the complete arrangements of the two songs "Boring" and "Dark of the Night" over and over in his mind.
After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, making sure that he had memorized every rhyme and making sure there was no mistake, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Feng raised his head again and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.
The time is coming.
October 27, 3020 AD, 9:43 am.
If I remember correctly, that weird thing will appear in the sky in a few minutes.
This time he decided to hide in the basement without looking at the light and try to see if he could survive.
During this year, except for practicing music hard, he almost paid no attention to worldly affairs.
But more than half a year ago, he tentatively spread the news that the end of the world was coming through social networks.
But the news he let out was quickly covered up. At the same time, he also received a first-level warning from the World Government, telling him not to make alarmist statements, otherwise he would bear the consequences.
After that, Chen Feng stopped meddling in other people's affairs.
He is just a humble citizen. He has already tried his best to take care of himself, so why bother to be compassionate to others?
He only made some small preparations for himself.
He used the accumulated welfare points to exchange for a secret room in an underground air raid shelter that had been vacant for many years, and prepared a large amount of food and drinking water in the secret room.
He wanted to try again to see what would happen next if he didn't die, and whether he could survive in this dream for a few more days.
If I have time, I will learn two more songs.
Snap.
Chen Feng turned on the old-fashioned flexible screen TV.
At the end of the last dream, he was playing tennis on an open-air tennis court with other low-income households, and he ascended to heaven on the spot.
This time you can see if there is any explanation on TV.
After a very brief flicker, the TV screen appeared, and the default TV station was Chinese Channel One.
At this time, a recorded interview program was playing on the TV.
A military expert is communicating with many reporters and public opinion leaders to explain why a large and seemingly redundant military system is maintained today.
"Yes, it is already an age of eternal peace. But the six thousand years of human history tell us that war is the switch for civilization and progress. In order to maintain the stability of social order, our military should be maintained at a sufficient level, which can both
Promote technological progress and prevent problems before they occur.”
Military experts talked so eloquently.
A respected civilian scholar sneered dissatisfied: "This is ridiculous. We don't engage in military affairs, but we will still promote basic disciplines to prevent problems before they happen? What is that problem? You are just wasting taxpayers' money.
Waste of the productivity of technological progress!”
As soon as the scholar finished speaking, the TV suddenly flashed, the signal was briefly interrupted, and the program was replaced.
Chen Feng turned to look at his watch. It was about four minutes before that time.
After a few seconds, the TV signal is restored.
Looking at the newly cut picture, Chen Feng's pupils suddenly tightened and his breathing stopped.
