But this thought only lasted for less than ten seconds.
Ten seconds later, his mouth was wide open and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
This is too scary, too strange!
What happened?
What did I hear?
Did this guy know that Christina would change to "Will-O '-the-wisp"?
How could this be!
The sound was indeed the perfect music of "Nightingale." This couldn't be faked, but the pitch was too scary!
Or maybe it was a recorded broadcast?
He had already prepared "Will-O '-the-wisp" recorded by "Nightingale"?
What made Pires dumbfounded was "Will-O '-the-wisp" that Chen Guang had casually played.
I'm sorry, you think this is one of the top ten most difficult songs in the world, but for me, it's no different from children's exercises.
Easy, casual. What you're facing is the strongest player that has ever been seen in the history of mankind!
If it wasn't for the fact that he had to pretend, Chen Guang wouldn't even want the music score.
Well, to be honest, he really didn't need it.
So Chen Guang stopped on the screen again.
He picked up the tablet in front of him, then smiled at the microphone and said, "It looks a little annoying, I'll just play it myself."
Then he really turned off the tablet, closed his eyes, and started playing "Will-O '-the-wisp" blindly again.
This time, Pires, Ravin Horde, and the others didn't have to wonder if he was faking it after the recording. It was absolutely impossible.
This guy didn't even need to look at the music score!
What's going on in that brain of yours?
This isn't Dorami Faso, this is "Will-O '-the-wisp"!
Christina, who was sitting in the resting room, jumped up from her chair. As the top performer of this difficult piece, she certainly knew how complicated this piece was. Moreover, this was a last-minute change to the song. It was impossible for him to have prepared it in advance!
This is impossible!
But how could he play it blind?
It's fine if you play blind, but how can you play it so accurately, like a machine!
Many people in the National Gallery of Art did not expect to change the song at the last minute, but Chen Guang's blind play of "Will-O '-the-wisp" still shocked many people, especially the young musician on the plane.
He had always felt conflicted about Chen Guang. Now, it turned out that Brother All-Rounder was not bragging. Not to mention anything else, just based on his perfect prelude of Will-O '-the-wisp, his achievements in the piano were definitely above him. He had the right to be arrogant.
But when Chen Guang was halfway through his performance, the young musician's mind was once again subverted by himself.
Chen Guang's achievements weren't just above him. He was clearly miles ahead of him. Perhaps he wasn't any worse than his mentor.
Was this guy still human?
From the beginning till now, he actually didn't make a single mistake in his intonation!
Well, in a sense, there were no mistakes, which also meant that there was no re-creation. The sound that he played was simply a living score!
How did you do it?
I don't believe it!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears, and believed that a hero like him would never make a fake play for the sake of acting, the young musician would only think that he was dreaming.
Admittedly, Chen Guang's "Will-O '-the-wisp" was less spiritual than Christina's, but the flaw did not obscure the beauty. His accuracy was simply beyond human imagination.
When Chen Guang played "Adelina by the Waterside" without a break, Raven Holdt, Pires, and the others completely gave up on the idea that he had guessed Christina's motive for changing the song and was preparing in advance.
It was not surprising that he could guess "Will-O '-the-wisp," but "Adelina by the Waterside" was not Christina's masterpiece. There were many other choices for the same soothing style.
But he was still playing blind. He didn't need a score, so he was naturally accurate.
It was another perfect reproduction of the original sound. The feeling he played was different from the original performer of the song, Richard Clayderman. It seemed to be the first version created by Paul Senneville, and it was just as beautiful.
When Chen Guang loosened his fingers, stood up from the stool, and bowed slightly to the audience, the applause was even more intense than when Christina stood up.
Apart from the fact that most of the audience present were Chen Guang's fans, the one-third of the audience who knew how to play the piano were the real main force.
That's right, Brother All-Rounder was going to use his true abilities to compete with five of the world's top well-known masters today.
There was no doubt that his duel with Christina had ended with his small victory.
There was no need to comment too much. Although he had the advantage of striking after the opponent, the standard of his performance was far better than Christina's.
Let's not talk about his artistic achievements first. Just the fact that his hands were so accurate that it made people's hair stand on end, and his ability to reproduce was unparalleled.
Pires and the others understood that there was really no need to compare the source of the sound with others. Christina was not as good as him.
The second to play was the music guy's mentor, a master from the United States.
Unlike Christina, the two songs that he had chosen were both famous songs with high artistic achievements but relatively few praises. They could be considered to be works of a niche audience.
But it was useless. He was once again copied by Chen Guang, and it was still a blind play.
Chen Guang's terrifying ability to reproduce the original sound shocked the tens of millions of viewers in Bamboo's live broadcast room, as well as the twenty million people in YouTube's live broadcast room. Tomato TV's ratings had officially crossed the ace level figure of 3%. At this time, a 3% rating meant at least 15 million people were watching the concert in front of their TVs.
The third to play was Pires.
"Flight of the Bumblebee" and "Nocturne in E flat major" still couldn't stop him.
At this moment, Ravin Horde and the others were clear as a mirror. No wonder this guy was willing to offer a sky-high price of 1.2 million dollars for five people. No wonder he was willing to boast about giving away "Nightingale." He was clearly planning to step on their heads and use such a world-renowned music event to reach the pinnacle of the piano world!
Although this young tycoon from Huaxia was really rich, he was not stupid at all. On the contrary, he was extremely cunning.
He was not shamelessly trying to play with them on the same stage. He clearly had a performance level that was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. He just needed a large and attractive stage to use the posture of a king to announce to the world that the emperor of the piano had appeared out of nowhere!
They were filled with indescribable regret. If they had known earlier, they would not have accepted this commercial performance contract even if he had doubled the price.
This was simply throwing away his old face.
They were supposed to be his stepping stones, but now it was too late for them to back down, and there was no turning back.
The fourth master's performance was off. In a state of despair, he played the famous song that he had long practiced to the point of familiarity, but it was a complete mess.
But it didn't matter. After the audience's ears were tortured, Chen Guang immediately used the same two songs to bring the concert back to its original style.
While Chen Guang was still playing outside, the other four had gathered in Ravin Horde's practice room. Ravin Horde was the only one who had yet to go on stage.
The atmosphere was a little gloomy, and everyone felt wronged.
"He's such a bully!"
Pires said angrily.
Christina's eyes were red. "He's just using us!"
The other two were silent, especially the guy who made a mistake. His face was livid, and he looked as if he had nothing left to live for.
Seeing everyone like this, Ravin Horde suddenly laughed.
"Mr. Horde, what are you laughing at?"
The master from the United States asked.
Ravin Horde said with a smile, "I suddenly realized something just now. Everyone seems to be a little narrow-minded. First of all, he paid a high price for us to come here. We took his money, and it wasn't a small amount. Doing our best is what we should do. As for what he wants to achieve with this concert, it's also his freedom. "
"From the moment we signed the sky-high contract, we were destined to be his stepping stone here today. I don't know what you guys are thinking, but I feel that at my age, I'm not angry at the fact that I can see such a young up-and-coming talent pushing piano performance to such heights. Instead, I feel happy. "
The eyes of the other four gradually lit up.
"Haven't you guys noticed? In addition to being an excellent pianist, he also has a pair of strong arms that are beyond human comprehension. His fingers and arms are extremely perfect. I think this might be the root cause of his flawless performance. He has shown us another realm of piano performance. I call it the perfect mechanical performance. "
"It might be an honor for the five of us to be able to witness the birth of such an unprecedented genius and to be able to witness his ascension to the throne. Perhaps, this will be written in the history of music many years in the future. On a certain day, the most perfect pianist in history, Chen Guang, competed with Raven Horde, Pires, and many others. In the end, he won the title of the perfect pianist. Our names will also be engraved in the history of music together with him! "
Pires finally felt relieved. "As expected of Mr. Horde!"
Christina also nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Horde. I feel much better now."
Seeing that everyone had almost been enlightened by him, Ravin Horde shook his hand. "However, he still has to go through me!"
Everyone was immediately shocked by the shocking aura that erupted from Ravin Horde. Indeed, the older, the wiser.
Master, let us see your elegance!
Twenty minutes later, this piece of old ginger finally drooped on the balcony after being exposed to the sun.
How embarrassing. Although Ravin Horde's performance of "Croatian Rhapsody" and "Pathétique" was probably his most perfect performance in the past ten years, it still could not withstand Chen Guang's original sound reproduction.
To be honest, you played a total of ten songs blindly, and at least six of them should have been completely unexpected by you. You're a little too unreasonable!
Is this brain of yours a human's?
How on earth did you store so many music scores?
We can also remember music scores, but that's only after practicing and revising the song for a long time before we officially go on stage to perform. You just picked it up and played it, and it's the original sound. What's the meaning of this?
We've lost wholeheartedly, so you should at least save us some face!
Do you want us to kneel down before you before you will give up?
Fortunately, it's over. It's finally over.
Ravin Horde and the others had already made up their minds. When they went on stage for the curtain call, they would also tell everyone about the last minute change of music.
Anyway, you're almost like a god now. Anyway, we've taken your money. Anyway, you're really good, so we'll help you and push you to the sky.
However, at this moment, Chen Guang, who had ended "Pathétique", did not stand up. Instead, he smiled faintly at the audience below the stage and said something that made everyone completely dumbfounded.
"Just now, I followed the five masters' music and played ten songs similar to theirs. I'm very grateful to the five masters for their help and cooperation today. Next, I'll perform something different for everyone. The song that I'm going to play should be something that no one has ever played alone before. The name of this song is not very pleasant to listen to. Erm, it's called "The Final Ghost Beast Girl"? Yes, that's right, this is a ghost beast piano song. "
"What I mean by a different way of performing is to play it with one hand. Yes, that's right, I'm going to play it with one hand. At the same time, I'll play La 3 on another piano with my other hand. That's right, it's Rachmaninoff's "Piano Concerto No. 3" that many people are familiar with. "
"The sound might be a little messy at that time, but it doesn't matter. There will be a dual-track audio system. The webcast will also use stereo technology. Please put on your headphones. When the time comes, you'll hear the ghost beast piano song in your left ear and La 3 in your right ear. Whichever you want to listen to, just listen to that headphone alone. As for my friends in the audience, I actually have a good suggestion. Plug your ears and go home to listen to the dual-track recording. There'll be a surprise. "
"Oh, by the way, my friends from Tomato TV, it seems like it's time for the live broadcast. Can I continue with my additional scenes?"
Chen Guang seemed to be asking someone else, but in fact, no one answered him.
Only Tomato TV's Station Head, who was thousands of kilometers away, picked up his walkie-talkie to inform the audience that the later programs would continue to be delayed. He replied to the air, "Of course we'll broadcast it! If I don't broadcast it with a 4.2% viewership rating, would I be crazy? "
Unknowingly, this joint piano performance that Chen Guang had come up with on the spur of the moment and used only a week's time to make, had suddenly become the king of viewership ratings!
If the Station Head had been told a day in advance that Tomato TV had the ability to suppress all their rival stations, he would not have believed it even if he was beaten to death.
But now, it had become a reality!
The last variety show to achieve such a viewership rating was the first season of The Voice of China, the most successful singing show in the country's history.
The Station Head was not stupid. Now that the viewership ratings were still rising, he just wanted to ride on Chen Group's rocket to the skies. Who knows, he might even break 5% in one go?
In any case, it's not like it's the News Simulcast, so he should just push it back if he could!
On the other side, when Chen Guang said that, there was an uproar.
