Midnight.
The season leaderboard updated.
anwhile, inside the Golden Hall.
The music concert was approaching its end.
So audience mbers began to stand up and prepare to leave.
At this ti, on the stage of the Golden Hall, a black lacquered grand piano stood in the center, accompanied by a white microphone next to it.
Lin Yuan, was sitting in front of this piano!
Emmm.
Why was Lin Yuan on the stage of the Golden Hall?
Let's go back to half an hour ago.
...
Half an hour ago.
Around 11:30.
Not long after two pieces of "Nocturne" had just ended.
Lin Yuan was chatting with Yang Zhongming and Zheng Jing in a private box.
Suddenly, an official from the Golden Hall approached Lin Yuan with a beaming smile,
"Teacher Admirable Fish, there's half an hour left until the concert ends. For the closing number of this concert, could you perform on stage? Any music-related performance will do. Our list is drawn randomly by Maestro, and it just happened to be your na~"
Lin Yuan had a peculiar expression on his face.
This "just happened to be" seed quite suspicious.
The closing number, as the na implies,
was the performance on stage as the audience exited.
The purpose of this piece was not to make the audience sit down and appreciate it, but rather to serve as a send-off as they left the venue.
It was highly entertainnt-oriented.
Compared to a formal performance, it was considered garbage ti, since the audience was leaving continuously, anyway.
This was a staple at every concert held at the Golden Hall.
Gu Xi first took the stage at the Golden Hall by performing a closing number.
Under normal circumstances.
The Golden Hall would recruit so of the guests present.
For example, if there were celebrity singers at the venue, even Kings and Queens of Singing, the Golden Hall would occasionally invite these people to showcase their vocals. This place wasn't limited to just instruntal performances.
Compared to singers.
Composers were a more preferred choice by the Golden Hall.
After all, these Maestros frequently ca to take advantage of the occasion and the private boxes.
The Maestros generally wouldn't refuse to perform the closing number, considering that most of these composers had so skills and wouldn't have assud the position of Maestro without knowing a few instrunts.
"Go ahead."
Yang Zhongming said with a smile.
Admirable Fish's piano skills, performing a closing number in the Golden Hall, would definitely be impressive, no need to worry about any blunders.
"Show off your skills!"
Zheng Jing also egged him on.
Many Maestros had experienced being recruited, and she and Yang Zhongming were no exception, having been tapped to perform a closing number as well.
So people got on stage and it was quite embarrassing, causing a lot of laughter.
But no one took it too seriously, it was just entertainnt ti after all.
So people got on stage and were quite impressive, Zheng Jing rembered the ti Yang Zhongming was recruited, he had perford the violin to a professional standard, surprising many people.
"Oh."
Lin Yuan agreed under their urging, sowhat dazedly.
This was why Lin Yuan was sitting alone in front of the stage piano during Golden Hall's closing ti, as everyone was preparing to head their separate ways.
That being said.
Since he was on stage, he was definitely going to perform well.
Although it was the garbage ti of the closing number, Lin Yuan never lacked respect for the stage.
The piece he prepared to perform was "Nocturne."
Not the "Nocturnes" by Chopin, but the song by Director Zhou!
This was the reason for the microphone set up on the piano, Lin Yuan was going to sing it himself.
This scene created a particular coincidence:
Lin Yuan's performance of the closing number and the official release of three "Nocturnes" on various music players happened almost at the exact sa ti!
...
The closing number, not many people would pay attention to.
Many audience mbers had already begun to rise and walk toward the exit.
As they walked, they shared their thoughts on the concert.
The noise was sowhat loud.
At this point, there wasn't room to discuss whether or not to respect the stage, the closing number was intended to send off the guests.
However.
Just then.
A lodious piano sound suddenly rang out.
Inside the Golden Hall.
The first to leave was a female viewer whose foot was about to step over the threshold, but at the arrival of the piano note, she stopped dead in her tracks!
Bang.
A man behind accidentally bumped into her.
"Sorry."
"Shh..."
After a brief exchange, the woman turned her head to look at the stage, her eyes slightly brightening.
Hmm?
The man also paused, his gaze likewise fixed on the stage, a flash of amazent in his eyes.
The venue gradually quieted down.
The noisy chatter slowly ca to a halt.
At this mont, not just these two viewers.
Nearly half of the audience, as if Sun Wukong had cast a spell, remained rooted to their spots—
The prelude was killer!!!
Director Zhou had many pieces known as "prelude killers."
The aning of "prelude killer" is that you've been completely captivated just by hearing the prelude.
And the prelude of his "Nocturne" wasn't just well-loved—it blew people away!
This was why Lin Yuan's prelude had just begun, and the audience suddenly stopped in their tracks!
Not just the piano!
Besides the piano, Lin Yuan had also prepared the accompanint for "Nocturne" in advance, like the main lody on the guitar and so on.
Thirty minutes of preparation had been enough to handle this scene.
And as the prelude reached a certain point,
close to the microphone,
Lin Yuan's lips began to move:
"A group of bloodthirsty ants were attracted to the decaying flesh.
I watch the lonely scenery with an expressionless face,
Losing you, love and hatred begin to clarify.
