Chapter 487: The Bird's Nest is Bright with Stars

The starry sky on a summer night is quiet and gentle, and the depths of the starry sky are a place where people place romance and thoughts. But tonight, the starry sky is so brilliant that it looks like a magnificent epic picture.

The ancient picture scroll stretches out in the boundless starlight, opening in this glorious era, slowly opening in the colorful bird's nest. The opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Part II - The Glorious Era.

Surrounded by green colored light, Zhuo Yang was dressed in white in the center of the venue, playing the same white piano. The first group of programs in the next part is "Starlight" in which he participated, and the track that Zhuo Yang is playing is called "Starlight".

Zhuo Yang returned to Beijing a week before the opening ceremony to report to the organizing committee. There were more than 20,000 performers at the entire opening ceremony, and Zhuo Yang was the latest of all domestic and foreign stars to report, not that he was playing a big name, because of his busy schedule, he communicated with Director Zhang Yimou in advance.

Lao Mouzi is from Guangxi in his household registration book, but he is known to be an international celebrity who went out from the loess of Shaanxi. When he met Zhuo Yang at first glance that day, Lao Mouzi directly greeted him in Shaanxi dialect.

Zhuo Yang has seen a lot of movies, and two films will be shown in the auditorium every week in the compound, with an internal ticket price of two yuan, mostly with the main theme or war films, but there are also other commercial blockbusters. When he was just in high school, on a weekend, Zhuo Yang and his family went to see Director Zhang's "My Father and Mother".

At that time, he was still young, and he didn't feel much about this kind of film about love, but his father Zhuo Tongtong's evaluation of this film made him remember it very deeply. Dad said that if you compare the just-released "Titanic", "My Father and Mother" is about a very standard oriental, or Chinese-style love, while "Titanic" is completely an interpretation of the essence of Western-style love.

"Titanic" tells a story full of ups and downs, but "My Father and Mother" has received a higher evaluation from my father. loves the house and Wu, and my father is also full of praise for Lao Mouzi.

As the chief director, in order to achieve perfection, Zhang Yimou naturally hopes that every star of the show will report as soon as possible, but Zhuo Yang was not late until a week before the opening ceremony, and he really can't say anything.

In fact, at the beginning, the eight-minute "Starry Bright" player selected another young pianist who has become famous in China in the past two years, but just after the list was reported, instructions came from above, asking the player of "Starlight" to be replaced by Zhuo Yang.

Lao Mouzi has nothing to do with this, the young pianist before was also selected because of the background, but now Zhuo Yang's side is obviously bigger, and the news that Lao Mouzi got was 'straight to the sky'. In this way, Director Zhang pushed the boat down the river. And even in terms of performance level and international popularity, Zhuo Yang is indeed obviously more suitable.

So Zhuo Yang called and said that he would report later, but Director Zhang didn't even dare to say a word.

Just from the tune "Starlight" itself, let alone a week, I am afraid that ten minutes for Zhuo Yang is enough. When he got the score and performance requirements four months ago, he was already very proficient and found his sense after only playing it twice.

"Starlight" is the opening ceremony music chief designer, Chinese musician in France Mr. Chen Qigang specially composed for the opening ceremony, the style of music is soothing and romantic, in fact, it is a popular path, there is no difficulty in playing, and there is no obstacle for amateur pianists.

Chen Qigang was a close disciple of the late famous French pianist Messiaen, and the theme song of this year's Olympic Games, "Me and You", was also written by him.

In this week, Zhuo Yang had a total of four rehearsals, and the key was to cooperate with the live stage lighting, fireworks, and other elements, each show was a large group performance, and Zhuo Yang's "Starlight" was only one part of "Starlight".

.

The night at the Bird's Nest was one of the most successful and spectacular opening ceremonies in Olympic history, and was watched by more than a billion people around the world.

In the TV camera, Zhuo Yang gently stroked the keys with a smile on his face, and the light and beautiful sound of the piano flowed from his fingertips. August 8 is the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games and the birthday of the beautiful Christine Josephine.

Today is her nineteenth birthday, and CoCo is curled up barefoot on the couch at her home in Vaduz, staring at TV and watching Zhuo Yang. The noon sun poured in through the cracks in the beech trees outside the window, and the floor inside the window was like a blooming rose.

Brother Zhuo Yang, who was chic and free on the TV, CoCo was full of joy, but he was so helpless.

- Brother Zhuo Yang, I'm going around Hanover, but I can't touch you. I've been to Milano Como and I've been around, but I still can't touch you. What do you think I should do? Would you like to find a way?

- Today is my birthday, and the day before yesterday was your birthday. Brother Zhuo Yang, you are already 23 years old, and your mother is not urging you to find a girlfriend?

August 2008 is a month of flowers, and the long-awaited flower of gorgeous love will also bloom in this month.

.

Zhuo Yang didn't know that there was a peerless girl who had been waiting for him for six years, and he didn't know that the flower of love he was most looking forward to was about to bloom brilliantly in his heart. At this time, he was slightly closing his eyes, indulging in "Starlight".

This is a piano variation with splendor and vastness in a soothing and gentle romantic color, although the form is simple, but it is precisely because of the simplicity that everyone can intuitively understand the emotions and stories it contains.

Zhuo Yang is a person who has seen a big scene, even if it is so grand and eye-catching today, it will not make him nervous in the slightest. The playing technique and rhythm are already well understood, and after four months of repeated practice, there will be problems with the performance, even if Zhuo Yang is allowed to play with one hand now, there will be no mistakes, I am afraid that if he is allowed to play with a chopstick, he can completely fool the past.

In these eight minutes, Zhuo Yang's mind wandered, and he recalled the bits and pieces he had experienced in the past six years of studying abroad. Six years ago today, he set off from Xi'an and embarked on the road of thousands of miles to study and also embarked on the road of football.

Zhuo Yang thought back to the people he had met in the past six years, the things he had encountered, and the words his father had said to him these days. There are also the words of Jiushan, Ocean and Lao Mu, and I remembered Cheng Hao's words.

At the end of "Bright Stars", hundreds of dancers glowing green fluorescent set up a jasper-like bird's nest model in the center of Huabiao's towering venue. The beautiful night sky is lit up with fireworks. Zhuo Yang tilted his head and opened his eyes, looking at the stars in the sky. His eyes were clear and suddenly bright.

At this moment, he made a decision.
