"Of course you can, but can you please not take pictures of my face?"

Fan Ying made his request.

"No problem."

The teacher readily agreed. He was mainly filming Fan Ying's fingering anyway.

Fan Ying was relieved and put his fingers on the keys.

But then he frowned again.

He could play, but the question was what to play?

The purpose of the teacher's video was to recruit students. If he chose a song that was too simple, it would go against the teacher's original intention.

But if the song was too difficult, it would indeed show the teacher's teaching level, but it would also make some students give up and think that it was too difficult to play the piano well. It must be difficult and arouse students' interest in the piano, which meets the teacher's requirements.

Thinking of this, he suddenly had an idea in his mind.

He nodded to the teacher, indicating that he could start recording.

The teacher found an angle to make sure that his face was not photographed.

Fan Ying moved his wrist slightly, raised his palm lightly, made a wave in the air, and then the sound of the piano rang abruptly.

The moment he heard the sound of the piano, the teacher realized that this was not what he taught.���Fan Ying had never heard any of his songs, not even this one.

As a piano teacher, he had heard all of them, whether classic piano music or music created by talented newcomers in various countries in recent years.

Even if he couldn't remember every note 100%, he wouldn't be completely unfamiliar with the music like he is now.

After being absent-minded for a moment, he had a bold idea.

This piece of music might be Fan Ying's original work!

He observed Fan Ying's fingers through his mobile phone and found that Fan Ying's right hand was very fast, and without exception, all the keys he pressed were black keys, while his left hand just cooperated with his right hand, like the green leaves that set off the red flowers.

That's right, what Fan Ying was playing was Chopin's etudes OP10, NO5, because most of the notes fell on the black keys, so it was also called"Black Key Etude"!

Fan Ying had not heard many piano pieces in his original world, and it was purely a coincidence that he could remember this one.

Firstly, it is special enough. Secondly, in the movie"Secret", Jay Chou played this song in a piano duel. Also, in the anime"White Album", whenever Touma gets angry, he will play this song.

Over time, it left a deep impression on him.

Although"Black Key Etude" mainly plays black keys, it is quite difficult. It was even selected as the exam piece for level 10 etude. Of course, there are piano pieces that are more difficult than it, and there are even many of them. However,"Black Key Etude" is undoubtedly the most interesting and the one that best meets the enrollment requirements!

After playing the song, Fan Ying stood up and the teacher put away his phone.

With a look of joy on his face, he asked excitedly:

""Fan Ying, did you write this piece yourself?"

Fan Ying did not deny it. There was no other way. There was no Chopin in this world!

The teacher showed a look of astonishment and laughed:

"Great, that's great, I didn't expect that you are so young, and you have only learned piano for a year, but you can write such an excellent piece of music!"

The more he looked at Fan Ying, the more he liked her, and then he felt a little sorry.

In fact, he suggested Fan Ying several times to take time to take the exam, but each time Fan Ying declined, saying that it was not the right time.

He was helpless, thinking that if Fan Ying wanted to become famous, he would definitely leave an important mark in the piano world, but unfortunately everyone has different ambitions.

After Fan Ying left, he opened the QQ group, posted the video of Fan Ying playing the piano in the group, and sent a message by the way

"Dear teachers, this is a piano piece created by my student. How about you listen to it?"

This is a group jointly established by pianists from all over the world. Although it is not official, some well-known piano masters are in it.

The original intention of establishing the group was to facilitate everyone to keep in touch, but I don’t know if it is due to the nature of pianists, most people only say hello politely on the day of joining the group, and then they dive and don’t talk.

This is understandable. After all, some of them are piano teachers, busy teaching students every day, and some are invited to perform in various places. They have almost no time to chat.

Even if there is, seeing that others are busy, you just talk nonsense in the group all day long. Doesn’t it mean that your skills are not as good as others and you don’t even have the opportunity to make money?

Therefore, although there are hundreds of people in the group, there are only a few messages every day, most of which are sharing experiences or chatting about some news in the industry.

Hu Yunxian is a member of the group.

He is the vice chairman of the Yunnan-Chuan Piano Association and a professor at the Sichuan Conservatory of Music.

Because of his age and qualifications, he usually doesn’t talk much. He never talked in the group, just occasionally paying attention to what the group members said.

He was sitting in the office as usual, and he took a break to check his phone. Suddenly, he found that there were 99+ unread messages in the piano group.

He couldn't help but wonder, why were the group members so idle today when they were usually elusive?

He curiously clicked on the group chat and scrolled to the top of the unread messages.

It was a 3-minute video in which a piano teacher recommended the students he taught.

This kind of thing is not uncommon, and similar things have happened before. After all, who doesn't like talented children?

Recommending good seedlings will make other piano masters familiar with them, and maybe they will take care of them in the future.

He didn't click on the video immediately. As a professor at the Conservatory of Music, he has seen too many good seedlings. Besides, he had some impression of the group member who posted the video, who was just an after-school tutor.

Can the students he taught be comparable to those who graduated from professional schools himself?

He swiped his finger upwards and continued to look down for new messages

"Teacher Xu, you played this student's song very well! To be honest, I have been busy with the renovation of my house these days and have not found time to listen to new songs. Is there any big brother who can tell what this song is?"

Many people below him were also asking about the name of the song.

Hu Yunxian noticed that even the piano master Shen Chong, who had appeared on a variety show before and was jokingly called the piano music library by the host, did not know the name of the song.

He continued to scroll down curiously, only to see Teacher Xu come out to reply to everyone:

"It's normal that you teachers haven't heard this song, because it was created by my students. This is the first time I heard it. I think it's very well written, so I posted it to the group to share with you teachers. I hope you can give me some advice!"

A lot of exclamations suddenly emerged below

"Written by a student? I thought it was created by a master. Teacher Xu, your student is incredible. How many years has he studied piano?"

"Not only can he compose, but he also has a solid foundation in playing the piano. It would be impossible to reach this level without ten or eight years of hard work. One minute on stage is the result of ten years of hard work off stage!"

"Teacher Xu, is there a score for this piece? Please share it with everyone! I was wondering how to do targeted exercises for students’ right hands, and this piece is just right for them!"

Teacher Xu continued to reply to everyone:

"Teachers, to be honest, my student has only studied piano for one year! As for the score, since it is a piece he composed, I can ask him for you later, but I can't guarantee that I can get it. I think he doesn't seem to like being famous!"
