Flight of the Bumblebee
The people in the live stream room were all holding their breath for Nan Ye.
[Da Xiong's strength is indeed very strong, his playing level is definitely above Jiang Linfeng's!]
[But isn't Xiao Ge's piano playing level about the same as Jiang Linfeng's? What should he do?]
[He can't lose, he absolutely cannot lose this round, it's very important!]
[...]
Under everyone's gaze, Nan Ye calmly and confidently walked to the piano.
But instead of placing his hands on the piano, he began a set of movements.
He straightened his arms, his fingers interlaced in a particularly complex manner, like a fishing net, his fingers quickly overlapping and exchanging movements...
Ono Kazuo and Duke Otto, among others, were a bit confused.
Why are you doing some fake moves instead of playing the piano?
Could it be that this set of movements can make your piano playing sound better?
Meanwhile, Netizens who frequently hung out in Nan Ye's live stream room quickly recognized it:
[This, this, I've seen it once, Xiao Ge used it when he was using the Flying Bridge Ascending to Immortality technique.]
[I suddenly have a premonition, Xiao Ge is about to unleash his big move!]
[Da Xiong wants to suppress Xiao Ge with technique, is there a possibility that Xiao Ge wants to use technique to fight back?]
That's right, Nan Ye had indeed decided what piece he was going to play.
If you, Ono Kazuo, want to show off your skills, then he will play a piece called "flight of the bumblebee"!
(One of the famous pieces by the Russian composer, Rimsky-Korsakov.)
The "flight of the bumblebee" is none other than the divine piece for piano virtuosity from his previous life.
In terms of difficulty, it is generally considered a high-level piece.
It has become one of the must-play pieces for many pianists during encores.
It is also one of the signature pieces of the world's most handsome piano virtuoso, Maksim!
When it comes to showing off skills, there is no piece more suitable than this one.
As Nan Ye finished the set of movements, he then sat up straight, putting his entire body in the most relaxed state.
Suddenly, Nan Ye opened his eyes, and his hands began to dance rapidly across the keys.
As soon as the piano sound came out, everyone froze in place.
Some had even held their breath.
Fast, it was simply too fast!
So fast it made one's scalp tingle.
Looking from the side, one could only see the afterimages of Nan Ye's fingers.
The piece began with a rapid descending chromatic scale.
The first feeling the people in the live stream room had when hearing the piano sound was as if a gust of wind had blown by.
And the wind became faster and faster, the sound of the wind grew louder and louder.
As it got faster, it was no longer just the sound of the wind.
Because the sound of the wind didn't have so many lively sounds.
Oh, that was the rustling sound of the wind blowing leaves.
No, it was faster again, the sound contained more things.
"Buzz~ Buzz~"
Bees!
That's right, those were bees.
From a few diligent bees, dancing bees, home-going bees, honey-collecting bees.
To a swarm of angry bees, crazy bees, bees that wanted to sting anyone they saw...
The swarm of bees darted left and right, up and down, sweeping in, in attack mode.
And the listeners felt like the person being chased by the swarm, who could only keep running.
It wasn't that no matter how you ran, there was still a swarm of bees constantly chasing you from behind.
More and more, endless!
[Holy crap, what kind of divine hand speed is this, my head is about to explode.]
[Although I don't know much about music, this piece makes me feel like there's a swarm of bees buzzing around my head, the kind you want to chase away but can't.]
[Xiao Ge really unleashed his big move, this hand speed, how many years of being single does it take to achieve this?]
The people in the live stream room still had the presence of mind to chat because the phone's live stream audio wasn't that good.
The people on site were completely different.
It was a surging flow of sound.
The melody rose and fell, the intensity varied, vividly depicting the image of wild bees flapping their wings and flying rapidly, swirling and dancing.
At this moment, they didn't feel like a swarm of bees was chasing them from behind.
Instead, they felt like the swarm of bees was going to sweep across the entire world.
They were coming.
They were coming with their stingers.
Run!
This was the only thought left in their minds.
But where could they run? There was nowhere to go at all!
It was as if no matter where you hid or in which direction you ran, the bees would catch up to you.
Finally, Nan Ye's hand speed obviously slowed down, and the intensity of the piano sound also slightly weakened.
Leaving behind a mess, and people who were stung and crying loudly.
Then they slowly went away, disappearing into the woods.
Until they were out of sight, not a single sound could be heard.
The piece was finished!
Everyone present was still in shock.
North Dust held his phone motionless, his entire body seemed to be frozen.
He opened his mouth wanting to speak, but found that he couldn't say anything.
Duke Otto had been gripping his hair from the start, his eyes wide, his pupils also dilated to the maximum.
It felt as if millions of bullets were whistling through his heart, he simply couldn't control the trembling in his heart.
Yes, at this moment, he had ruined the good image he had maintained for decades.
There was nothing he could do, he simply couldn't control himself.
As for Ono Kazuo, his heart was even more turbulent.
It was as if an island had been swept by a Category 15 typhoon.
All the trees were pulled up, leaving only bare rocks.
There was nothing he could do, he was a pianist, so he understood piano music.
He knew that after this piece, the world would definitely have one more classic piano piece.
The people around also had their mouths wide open, speechless for a moment.
At this moment, they simply didn't know what to say.
Instead, the people in the live stream room were the first to start discussing intensely:
[Dededededede... That speed, even a machine gun isn't that fast.]
[Damn, as I was listening, I unconsciously started shaking my leg, but then I found I couldn't keep up, and successfully gave my leg a cramp trying to follow the rhythm!]
[To be honest, I think you should never listen to this song before bed, because you'll find that even picking up mosquito coils is useless!]
[To be honest, I originally had procrastination issues, but after listening to this piece, I immediately sat up and finished an English test paper in five minutes!]
[I know it's strong, but how strong exactly? Can someone come out and say something?]
In the hotel!
Dai Tianxiong and others were still in shock, only Ma Sui was the first to recover.
He didn't go to disturb Dai Tianxiong and the others, but instead answered the question from the live stream room:
"I am Ma Sui, Chairman of the Piano Association, let me tell everyone about it."
Everyone can hear that the piece is very fast, or rather, you have never heard such a fast piece.
I paid attention to the time, the piece was only 1 minute and 12 seconds long, but it had a beginning and an end.
And Nan Ye's fastest speed...
16 keys per second!
Fast, it's truly fast, even a rocket wouldn't be able to catch up.
The most important thing is that at such a fast speed, the piece can still maintain that sense of agility, that clarity, and a complete sense of granularity.
This, is undoubtedly the most rare!"
[Holy crap, 16 keys per second, my hand speed when playing games isn't that fast.]
[Unbelievable, unbelievable, how about Xiao Ge applies for the Guinness World Record for the fastest piano playing!]
[So, Nan Ye should have won with this piece, right?]
