Chapter 4 Piano, Painting, and Books

Mozart once said, "I spend at least 10 hours a day practicing, but they wipe out my efforts with just one word of genius." ”

It can be seen that no matter how talented a person is, he also needs diligent practice to achieve good results.

Jiang Chao knows this truth very well. He doesn't want to waste his talent, so he knows what to do.

This year, Jiang Chao is 7 years old. He is only 7 years old, but he has been playing the piano for 4 years. In the past 4 years, Jiang Chao has practiced the piano every day whenever he is free. At the beginning, at a young age, his fingers grew calluses that only he could have when he played the piano for a long time, but as he played the piano for longer and longer, the calluses on his hands disappeared, which means that his skills have been very proficient.

Jiang Jin and Milan didn't think that Jiang Chao had to practice the piano, they were unwilling to force the child to do something he didn't like. The health and happiness of children is their greatest hope.

However, what is surprising is that Jiang Chao not only requires himself to practice, but also is very strict with himself, and he must practice for a fixed time every day before he is willing to rest.

Jiang Chao's self-discipline is enough to embarrass many adults. This made Jiang Jin and Milan distressed and relieved.

Jiang Chao's artistic talent inherited from Jiang Jin is far beyond Jiang Jin himself after being systematically optimized, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is even historical. The top talent and the most malleable age, coupled with the comprehension ability of adults and the hardest practice, have created Jiang Chao at the age of 7 to have a faint level of virtuoso-level piano performance.

It has to be mentioned here that in the hall of piano, if you insist on dividing the level of performance, then the highest level is naturally the master level, such as Lang Lang and Artur Rubinstein, and the next level is the level of a performer who can climb to a large concert hall.

Of course, it is not uncommon for a 7-year-old to have Jiang Chao's level. In fact, many masters have demonstrated jaw-dropping performance at an early age, such as Mozart, who began touring Europe at the age of six.

Occasionally, friends from Milan or Jiang Jin come to the house, and Jiang Chao will take the initiative to perform the piano for everyone. Among them, there are naturally those who understand music who were suddenly speechless by Jiang Chao's level, and then they could only express their worship, and people were more popular than people.

Some friends and guests don't understand music and can't intuitively understand Jiang Chao's piano level, so they ask Jiang Chao how many piano levels he has.

This was very embarrassing, Jiang Chao could only answer honestly: "I didn't have an exam, uncle." ”

The guest was afraid of hurting Jiang Chao's self-esteem, so he touched Jiang Chao's head and comforted: "It's okay, you play so smoothly at such a young age, it will definitely not take long to get into a few levels, and it is not a dream to persist even if it is level ten!

Jiang Chao could only hold back a smile in his heart, and accepted the red envelope obediently on the surface: "Thank you, uncle!

Piano Grade 10?

It's a joke in the eyes of a real piano person...... How to say it, it's about the level of Jiang Chao when he was 4 years old.

In addition to the piano occupying most of Jiang Chao's time, after the age of 6, Jiang Chao also followed his father to learn painting.

Drawing is also a natural skill. Mainly reflected in the perception of light, light and dark lines and spatial expression, Jiang Chao's talents are also top-notch. Once you've learned the basics, there's a lot of practice left to do.

Painting became Jiang Chao's relaxation after practicing.

Jiang Chao likes to paint Milan, and Milan is also willing to be a model for his son. Jiang Chao is very focused when he paints, and every stroke and line condenses his love for his mother and his cherishing of this life.

This summer is Jiang Chao's last summer before school. In September, Jiang Chao will go to elementary school.

"Cleaned up?"

"Wait a minute, I'll put on another lipstick. ”

Jiang Jin quipped: "Okay, okay, my parents can't see the difference......"

Milan put on lipstick in the mirror and said softly, "You look more energetic." Wait for me~"

When the two of them were waiting for Milan, Jiang Jin asked Jiang Chao: "Son, do you want grandparents?"

"Yes!" Jiang Chao replied without even thinking about it.

Of course he did.

Before he was reborn, Jiang Chao had been bedridden in the hospital since he could remember, and he didn't have many memories of his grandparents.

But he clearly remembers that his grandparents stayed with him for a long, long time despite their poor health.

The love of the next generation is equally pure and selfless.

Grandparents love that waste-like self, and they also love their clever and cute self now.

Every summer, Jiang Chao's family of three would drive to live at their grandparents' house in the suburbs for a month or two.

If Jiang Chao remembers correctly, his grandparents would have died when he was about fifteen or sixteen years old. The days that can be with him are one day and one day less, so he cherishes the time he can spend with his grandparents.

......

As cars drive away from the city, the surrounding high-rise buildings are gradually replaced by green vegetation. At this time, the sky in Jinjiang City is very blue, and the weather forecast will not indicate the PM2.5 content.

Jiang Chao looked out the window and looked at everything outside curiously, just like a real child.

Although Jiang Chao once lived for 19 years, it is a pity that he rarely has the opportunity to see what the outside world is like. Therefore, he was full of curiosity about new things in his life.

The car didn't last long, and the family reached the end of the trip.

In the suburbs, a quiet-looking old house.

Jiang Chao couldn't wait to jump out of the car, and shouted from afar: "Grandpa!

So, a harmonious picture is composing, the husband is unhurriedly parking the car in the back, and the wife is afraid that her son will fall and hurriedly gets out of the car and follows. The old house, the big trees, the children, the jumping, and the sunlight also quietly sprinkled down.

......

Jiang Chao's grandfather is also a cultural person, who has been an educated youth and has gone to the countryside. Now that I'm older, I wanted to stay far away in the countryside and enjoy a quiet time, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. But considering his son's filial piety, he finally settled down with his wife in the suburbs of Jinjiang City, so that Jiang Jin could come and take care of him.

It was raining today, and the sound of rain outside, mixed with frogs and insects, was very good.

Jiang Chao's grandfather was writing calligraphy, and Jiang Chao watched quietly from the side. Grandpa glanced at Jiang Chao, his eyes full of smiles.

"My son has been standing next to his dad for half an hour. ”

Jiang Jin smiled slightly: "Isn't it good, you are so patient at a young age." ”

Grandma cut the fruit and brought it over: "Okay, okay, let's practice later! You old man is not tired, my grandson also needs to rest for a while!"

Grandpa was dissatisfied with Grandma's interruption: "What do you old lady know? Go and go, don't disturb me and my grandson!"

"What did you say?" said Grandma.

Grandpa instantly confessed and coughed lightly: "Put the fruit here first, I'll eat it after I finish writing this line." ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Laugh and laugh, make trouble. Grandpa touched Jiang Chao's head and asked, "Grandson, grandpa used to be a little famous in the calligraphy world, and you are going to elementary school, is it good for grandpa to teach you calligraphy?"

Jiang Chao laughed obediently: "Okay!"

Jiang Chao experienced the feeling of despair that only two fingers could move in his body. Nothing can be done...... How desperate he was then, how much he cherishes it now.

Therefore, Jiang Chao is willing to try to learn all good things.

"As for calligraphy, pay attention to the chapter, the structure of the frame, and the virtual and real hairspring...... Grandpa will tell you about the most important frame structure......"

The rain has not stopped for a long time......
