Chapter 178: A Rare Genius in a Hundred Years! (Two more to the end~)
Wonderful times are always very short.
This song, which is less than four minutes long, seems to Clayderman's ears to be only a short moment.
When the last piano note fell, Clayderman reluctantly opened his eyes, and then he found that Murong Er, who came with Han Yanrou, also slowly opened a pair of beautiful eyes, and was about to applaud involuntarily.
"Don't."
Clayderman immediately stopped her and whispered, "Don't interfere with Joanna's notation." β
Murong Er was stunned for a moment, then realized that Joanna was still memorizing, smiled apologetically, and put down her clapping hand.
Han Yanrou finished playing the song and raised her head to look at Joanna opposite.
At this time, Joanna's eyebrows were slightly condensed, as if she was recalling the melody she had just played, but her hands did not stop, and the pen was flying on the paper.
β¦β¦
The sunlight outside the window shines through the thin curtain, making Joanna's hand as she writes brightly white.
Under the rapid writing, this little hand is like a beating note.
Han Yanrou didn't make a sound, just looked at Joanna who was brushing the pen, and gradually fell into a trance.
It wasn't until Joanna's hand stopped that Han Yanrou woke up.
"Alright."
Joanna put down the pen, picked up the notation book in her hand with both hands, and sent it to Han Yanrou's eyes, "Miss Han, can you take a look?" β
Very beautiful staves, clear and accurate stroke by stroke, Han Yanrou browsed up and down, then put the notation book on the piano cover, and sighed: "It's exactly right, Miss Joanna, you have a good hand." β
Joanna drew a faint smile at the corner of her mouth and didn't speak.
Clayderman walked over and said with a smile: "Joanna is a doctor of classical music from the Royal Academy of Music, which is a small thing for her. β
"Sure enough, those who follow the seniors are not ordinary people." Hearing this, Han Yanrou sighed with emotion.
As he spoke, Clayderman held the notation book in both hands as if he had received a treasure, and exclaimed: "This is really a masterpiece of God, I didn't expect that Miss Han is not only extremely talented in pop music, but also talented in the creation of piano music, which is simply a musical genius that is rare in a century!" β
"Senior, you're too polite." Han Yanrou said modestly.
"Miss Han, I wonder if I can play it again?" Clayderman asked, looking up, pleadingly.
"Of course, it's an honor!" Han Yanrou smiled and returned to the sofa with Joanna.
Clayderman carefully placed the notebook on the piano music stand, flipped it back and forth, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.
Then, he shook the ten fingers of his hands and began to play.
Clayderman said to play it again, but after actually getting started, it was not like this.
But over and over again, over and over again, as if he couldn't stop at all, the expression on his face was very intoxicated, and he obviously fell into a state of self-forgetfulness.
It can be said that having reached the world's top piano performance level like Clayderman, once you eat a piece thoroughly and play it again, it is really irresistible.
Clayderman played it over and over again, and Han Yanrou and the others listened to it over and over again......
Unconsciously, an afternoon of time quietly flowed away in the sound of the piano.
As dinner approached, Joanna looked at her watch and said to Clayderman, "Sir, it's time for you to get ready for the evening's show." β
"I love this piece so much."
Clayderman stopped and said, "Miss Han, can I use this piece for the final repertoire of my concert tonight?" β
"Absolutely."
Han Yanrou smiled: "Since I gave you this song, you can use it whenever you want." β
"Miss Han, you are really too generous." Clayderman had some excitement on his face, and then said, "Oh, I forgot to ask Miss Han, what is this piece called?" β
βCroatian Rhapsodyγβ Han Yanrou said a word in English, which is the original name of this song.
"Croatian Rhapsody?"
Clayderman repeated it in English, and then added, "If I'm not mistaken, this piece tells the story of the Jews rebuilding the Jewish state of Israel in the midst of blood and fire. β
"The seniors are really well-read and have a strong memory." Han Yanrou said with a smile.
"I also admire Miss Han's cultural accomplishment, I didn't expect the inspiration for this piece to come from this way." Clayderman smiled, and then he changed his words: "But, Miss Han, we meet for the first time, and I can't ask for this song in vain." β
"Chinese people pay attention to courtesy, Miss Han gave me such a good song, I can't help but say, Joanna."
Joanna reacted quickly and delivered a checkbook to Clayderman's hand.
I saw that he swiped and wrote an amount in the checkbook, tore it off and handed it to Han Yanrou: "Please be sure to accept it." β
Seeing the solemn look on Clayderman's face, Han Yanrou didn't refuse, took the check and put it in his pocket, then got up and said, "In this case, we won't hinder the seniors from preparing for tonight's performance, and say goodbye." β
"Okay, we'll see you in the evening."
Clayderman stood up and shook hands warmly with Han Yanrou.
β¦β¦
Back in the suite, as soon as she entered the door, Ai Xiaonuan rushed over and jumped beside Han Yanrou: "Wow, Yanrou, I didn't find you so powerful!" β
Han Yanrou looked at Ai Xiaonuan inexplicably.
"I heard the piano next door in the afternoon!" Ai Xiaonuan explained with a smile: "It's so good, it's your new tune, right?" β
"Just your ears." Han Yanrou couldn't cry or laugh.
"Haha, was the old British man shocked by you?" Ai Xiaonuan asked.
"Where can I shake people." Han Yanrou said: "Compared with him, I am still far behind. β
"Boss, I think Mr. Clayderman must have been suppressed by you." Murong Er on the side said with a smile.
"By the way, boss, take a look at the amount of money on the check that Mr. Clayderman gave you, right? I think there should be quite a few. β
"Although Clayderman is a master, he is a Westerner after all, and he likes to go straight too much." Han Yanrou complained while slowly taking out the check in her pocket.
"It's a good song, why exchange it for money, it's really burning the piano and cooking the crane, and the cow chewing the peony......"
Halfway through the conversation, Han Yanrou couldn't go on, because she found that there were far more zeros on the check than she expected.
"Five million...... USD! β
Ai Xiaonuan's eyes widened, and then she said excitedly, "Yanrou, you have made a fortune!" β
"Shhhh Be quiet, and don't let the next door hear. Han Yanrou glanced at Ai Xiaonuan, "Xiaonuan, you are also a daughter, you haven't seen so much money?" Don't be so unproductive, look at me, how calm. β
"Oh." Ai Xiaonuan lowered her head, then raised her head again and asked, "That Yanrou, why is your hand holding the check shaking?" β
"I'm tired of playing the piano."

At 8:30 p.m., the exterior wall of the National Centre for the Performing Arts of China, known as the highest art palace in China and the most high-end national performing arts venue in Tianjing, was filled with light under the glow of floor lamps.
Outside the door of the actor's passage, a back curtain was erected, a cordon was raised, and a red carpet was rolled out.
The performance started at eight o'clock, at this time, the audience had not yet entered, but gathered near the actor's passage, and the audience close to the cordon picked up their mobile phones one after another, turned on the camera function, and waited for the arrival of some big-name stars tonight.
Walking the red carpet is a necessary process for award ceremonies, or large-scale movies and music festivals.
As a solo performance, this format is extremely rare, but Klayderman's piano recital, with its red carpet, no one thinks it will be inappropriate.
Because tonight's guest lineup is very luxurious, no less than an international music festival.
I saw that one luxury car after another, parked at the end of the red carpet, the stars either walked alone or in groups, in the continuous illumination of the flashing lights, in the shouts and screams of the audience, all of them walked one after another, waving around from time to time.
Some flamboyant-looking female singers will also pose in front of the camera to facilitate the framing of entertainment reporters.
