Minami Junichi felt very comfortable, and he enjoyed the attention of people around him.

Therefore, when playing, the expressions and body movements are even more exaggerated. In the Japanese and Korean competitions, the media often say that Minamino Shunichi is a performer in the piano world, and the piano performance he brings is a visual and auditory enjoyment.

Minamino Shunichi liked this kind of praise very much.

He is not as quiet and typical as other pianists, but rather a slightly vain person.

When he was a teenager, he was rebellious, so he gave up his piano playing and started learning and understanding various modern electronic instruments. This also laid the foundation for his future career in the animation industry.

Therefore, compared to more noble and quiet concert halls, he prefers to carry a laptop and a disc player and perform amateur performances in nightclubs or downtown areas.

However, as he grew older, he felt angry and helpless at the world's belittling of pop music.

Last year, my cousin Shuichi Minamino successfully defended the global championship of the One Emperor and Four Emperors Competition. He suddenly transformed from an unknown pianist to one of the most popular grand pianists in Asia. This made Shuichi Minamino suddenly...

Recognized the reality.

Therefore, after a year of training, he came to the 3rd One Emperor and Four Emperors Piano Competition.

Everyone in the Minano family has beautiful and slender hands.

These hands have allowed people in this family to become various craftsmen, including surgeons with superb medical skills, professional players in the e-sports circle, programmers and pianists. Every Nanno family has extremely high status in society.

status.

For example, Minamino Junichi's father is a well-known pianist in China.

This kind of family background also gave Minamino Junichi a better foundation for training.

Now, having successfully made it all the way to the global finals, Minamino Junichi is determined to win the championship.

However, when he saw the performance video of Uncle A in the Chinese Division, he was immediately attracted by the other party's dreamlike playing technique. In addition, many of Uncle A's piano music also attracted him.

caught his gaze.

In addition to dazzling works such as "Flight of the Bumblebee", works such as "Electromagnetic Gun", "Out of the West", "Unravel", etc. gave him an illusion of sympathy for each other.

Because almost all of these songs combine classical music and pop music and draw on the strengths of each. This is exactly what Minamino Shunichi has always hoped to do.

And the song "Flight of the Bumblebee" he is playing now is also very famous in Neon Island.

This piece has become a racing piece that modern pianists are competing to use. It is practiced by many pianists. It does not have many virtuoso chords and many scales are used repeatedly. For performance-level pianists

Generally speaking, it is not too difficult, and you will be able to use it skillfully after practicing a few times.

But many people have discovered that this piece of music can push the limit of hand speed infinitely.

When Liao Yuan performed this song in the China Division Finals, the whole song was about one minute and forty seconds.

For an average person to play this piece of music without missing a beat, it would take at least two minutes.

For a real grand pianist, a two-minute piano piece can be played within the one-minute limit as long as the hand speed is fast enough.

Minamino Junichi also joined this racing game and achieved good results.

Therefore, people watching in front of the public piano could clearly hear a huge mosquito buzzing continuously inside the piano string cover.

The whole place was in an uproar.

"sharp!"

"God, I'm reviewing the principles of communication, and I feel like I'm going to fly when I hear this!"

"The prize should be his!"

When the song ended, Minami Junichi felt a burning sensation in his fingertips. He glanced at the timer placed on the piano.

The two-minute "Flight of the Bumblebee" was compressed to one minute and twenty-two seconds.

"One minute and twenty-two seconds, very good, who else wants to challenge this song "Flight of the Bumblebee"!"

Next to him, a bearded old man said loudly: "If there is no one else, my Rolex Blackwater Ghost will be his!"

"Give it to him!"

"No one is faster than him!"

"Yes, he is Asia's top grand pianist!"

"The champion seed of the One Emperor and Four Emperors Competition!"

There was constant laughter at the scene.

Minami Junichi laughed and was just about to stand up and take the watch. Who knew that a figure next to him took over his place. He turned his head in surprise and saw a handsome yellow man smiling at him.

The scene fell silent.

"Japanese?"

Minami Junichi tried to ask in Japanese, but when he saw the other person's face was confused, he asked in Korean: "Korean?"

Liao Yuan couldn't understand what Junichi Minamino was talking about at all.

He nodded to Minami Jun, and then asked the bearded old man in English: "Sir, is this a competition? What are the rules?"

The bearded old man looked at Liao Yuan and his eyes lit up: "Can you play "Flight of the Bumblebee"? As long as your speed exceeds one minute and twenty-two seconds, this watch is yours, and it is worth seven thousand euros!"

Seven thousand euros is equivalent to fifty or sixty thousand yuan.

Liao Yuan smiled and said: "I understand."

Immediately, he signaled Minamino Junichi to step back, and then gently tried the piano's tone and feel.

Although it is a public piano, because it is maintained every week, the performance is perfect in all aspects. Although the feel is not as good as your own piano, it is still considered an entry-level piano.

So, under the attention of dozens of people in the audience, and with countless people flowing around, Liao Yuan put his hands on the keys for about five seconds, and after the bearded old man called out, at that moment, ten people

A single finger turned into a meteor that filled the sky, rapidly bombarding all the keys.

It’s still the song “Flight of the Bumblebee”.

but……

People stared.

Even Minami Shunichi looked confused.

Liao Yuan's hand speed seems to have exceeded the limit that can be discerned by the naked eye. Under such high-speed tapping of the keys, the specific return fluctuations of the keys cannot be seen at all.

If there weren't many people around watching the scene, people might have thought it was a computer-edited picture.

Liao Yuan is also rarely serious.

Experimental records show that on a single string, the speed at which a human hand shakes once is within 80 seconds milliseconds at the fastest, which is just shy of 13 times per second. Considering that one shake is 2 tones produced back and forth.

, so there are 26 tones.

There are 26 tones in 1 second, which means 1560 tones in 60 seconds.

Therefore, the fastest speed is 390 beats per minute, which is the limit of human hand shaking.

Anything that exceeds this speed is basically the result of omissions, omissions, mixing, or many notes not being played.

When Minamino Shunichi plays "Flight of the Bumblebee", the fastest speed can reach one minute and nine seconds, and about 1,000 notes are played per minute, totaling 16 notes per second.

But this time, he did not surpass his previous speed and only hit one minute and twenty-nine seconds.

But when he saw the Asian man's playing in front of him, he realized that no matter how good he was, he couldn't reach the opponent's hand speed.

Just judging by a pianist's intuition, this Asian's piano playing speed has reached more than 300 beats per minute, which is more than 22 notes per second.

And not only is it fast, every sound is also extremely clear.

To be able to play such a terrifying speed on such an entry-level piano really shocked Minamino Junichi.

This is no longer "One Flight of the Bumblebee."

This is the light speed hammer piano...

Moreover, the other party didn't blush or breath at all, and even looked at the timer occasionally.

This frightened Nanno Shunichi.

Soon, among the stunned crowd, a song "Flight of the Bumblebee" was played.

The number displayed on the timer is 47.01 seconds.

The two-minute song is compressed to 47.01 seconds, and every note is accurate...

Minami Junichi murmured: "I finally know who Kato Takashi's master is."

The bearded old man put away the timer. While everyone was still in a daze, he suddenly said: "Can you let me see your hands? My friend."

Liao Yuan was puzzled, but still spread his hands.

The bearded old man touched these hands and said with some obsession: "So beautiful."

Liao Yuan felt a chill, quickly turned his hand back, stood up and asked, "Can I get your prize?"

The bearded old man came to his senses and quickly offered the gift box in his hands.

Liao Yuan opened it and took a look. It was indeed a Rolex Submariner, but he had no interest in the watch. He turned to the crowd and said, "Does any of you know how to play the March of the Volunteers? As long as someone can play it completely."

I will give this piece of music and this watch away as a gift."
