Unfortunately, the reporters outside the Golden Hall still have to remain patient and wait, as the concert has not yet ended.
Including the Golden Hall.
The regular duration of most Blue Star concerts is within 2 hours and more than one and a half hours.
The specific duration depends on the length of the pieces. If they are all short pieces like yesterday, Lin Yuan will have to produce a large number of pieces.
And a symphony like today's belongs to the long piece.
The "Symphony No. 5" lasted for more than 40 minutes, consisting of four movements.
Under such circumstances, Lin Yuan's next performance would probably have to be controlled at around forty minutes.
Of course, Lin Yuan had already made preparations for this.
Now he had to wait fifteen minutes, which was a routine break, just like the end of get out of class.
Fifteen minutes later.
A new piece of music will begin to play.
Of course, Lin Yuan couldn't just sit and wait.
As the protagonist of today, he needs to continue to stand on the stage and interact with the audience with the help of the host. These are the processes that the people in the Golden Hall have rehearsed with him in advance.
The overall atmosphere on site was relaxed.
The host simply asked some simple questions about "Symphony of Fate".
When it comes to the question of the creative ideas at the beginning, Lin Yuan directly brings out Beethoven's standard answer:
"The four strong tones at the beginning represent the knock of fate on the door."
"Which piece of music do you like best?"
"The first and fourth movements, especially the fourth movement, transition from C minor to major, and both the climax and the meaning are more distinct and prominent."
"What's the moral of it?"
"I have grabbed fate by the throat with my own hands."
"So this is a work based on your personal experience? After all, we all know that you had a hard time before you became famous..."
"Perhaps."
Lin Yuan said ambiguously.
He didn't want to explain but still gave a few symbolic explanations. However, Lin Yuan still didn't intend to say too much on his own initiative.
When a piece of music like this is played, apart from Beethoven's official interpretation, the rest of the understanding is left to the audience to come up with. Lin Yuan does not want to impose his own understanding on it.
The host is not a fool.
When he realized that Lin Yuan didn't want to talk about the past, he wisely didn't ask any more questions, but he became more certain of his guess:
Yes, that must be it!
Having suffered a severe blow from illness and even on the verge of death, Xianyu never gave up his dream and finally saw the dawn of victory. That’s why he wrote such an epic masterpiece, which has a bit of the flavor of a man with a strong will despite his disability!
In the audience.
The audience also understood.
Why is Xianyu unwilling to talk more about this topic
It must be because those sad past events have extraordinary meaning in his heart, so he is unwilling to talk about them in public. It is precisely because of this extraordinary meaning that a great work like "Symphony of Fate" was born. As long as we combine it with Xianyu's explanation, we will know:
The knock of destiny!
Strangling fate by the throat!
Avoiding the topic that everyone already knows the answer to, the host laughed and said:
"There's not much time left. Can you give us a little hint about the piece you're going to play next?"
"Um."
Lin Yuan's eyes flashed with something strange: "This song is related to Lanling King."
When this answer came out, everyone in the audience was stunned.
Prince of Lanling
There are many legends about Xianyu, and almost everyone on the entire Blue Star can tell them with relish.
For example, his early health problems, and the fact that he once participated in "King of Masked Singer" under the name "Lanling King".
The moment of unveiling the champion has almost become one of the most famous scenes in the entertainment and even Blue Star art circles.
However, Xianyu has never explained in public why he used the name "Lanling King". There is no "Zaozhuang God of War" on Blue Star that the Chinese netizens are so fond of talking about.
"Can you give us a brief introduction?"
The host was very interested, and the audience was also full of anticipation: "What's the story behind the name Lanling King?"
"I have a friend who..."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I once heard such an interesting story from that friend. It is said that there was a general in ancient times who was extremely brave and wise, and was deeply loved by his soldiers..."
"Is this general the Prince of Lanling?"
The host and the audience came up with the same answer.
Lin Yuan nodded: "That's right."
The host continued: "Then the friend you are talking about, could it be you?"
Lin Yuan was stunned.
The host couldn't help but laugh: "Just kidding, but I doubt that the friend you are talking about is Teacher Chu Kuang."
“That’s not the point.”
Lin Yuan continued to talk about Lanling King: "As a general, Lanling King is fair and honest. If he gets any delicious food or drink, no matter how much, he is happy to share it with his soldiers. If there is a flaw, the only flaw of Lanling King is that he is too handsome. He is so handsome that he doesn't look like a general at all."
The host was very cooperative, but also a little puzzled:
"Does Teacher Xianyu think handsomeness is a flaw?"
"At least for generals who fight on the battlefield, being too handsome is not a good thing. They may even be ridiculed by the enemy, who will say that the general has the charm of a pretty boy. Lanling Wang has encountered this more than once."
Lin Yuan spoke.
Just like the previous "Butterfly Lovers".
Before the music is presented, he needs to let the audience quickly understand the background of the music.
"In order to scare the enemy, the naturally handsome Lanling King asked someone to make him a very hideous and terrifying mask. When he put on the mask, he looked like an evil demon Shura from hell. From then on, he became more and more unstoppable on the battlefield."
The story of Lanling King and the mask is told.
The audience suddenly realized that they had finally solved this long-standing mystery.
It turns out that this is the reason why Xianyu participated in "The King of Masked Singer" as Lanling King.
It turns out that "King Lanling" was a general.
There is actually such a story about a "mask" about this general!
As for this story, where did Xianyu hear it from? Was it from Chu Kuang or some unofficial historical record, or did he just make it up himself
It doesn't matter anymore.
The important thing is that everyone understands the meaning.
"And the next piece I'm going to play is a drum piece, like a battle song belonging to Lanling King."
That's right.
Lin Yuan’s next work is “Prince Lanling’s March into Battle”!
In fact, when Lin Yuan participated in "Masked Singer" that year, he had already decided to perform this song if he had the chance in the future. Now is his personal concert, which is a good opportunity. After all, the three words "Lanling King" have special meaning to him in a certain sense.
The words fell.
The curtain rises.
Lin Yuan had to quickly prepare for the next performance.
Unlike the idle symphony, Lin Yuan also has a big role in the following piece.
The audience couldn't help but sit up straight.
After listening to one song after another, the audience has established a huge trust in Xianyu. Listening to his music has unknowingly become something with sacred significance, which the audience themselves are not even aware of.

ps: You can go to B station to listen to this song by Liu Qingyao, it's quite atmospheric. Also, you don't have to worry about the heroine anymore. Whether it's the mechanic girl, the socialites, or the song of Lanling King entering the battle that fills the gap in this chapter, they are all a process of foreshadowing. Now that we have started to wrap up, we certainly don't have the energy to create unnecessary details.
