Through the double doors, it’s not a recording studio, but a very spacious room that looks like a living room.
It was a spacious place with a sofa, and looking to the right, it was probably the recording studio, a partition with an independent window wall.
Behind the window wall was the recording studio. From a distance, Kurosawa Mitsuru could see a huge object covered with black cloth in the room. It was obviously a piano.
In addition, there is a lot of equipment outdoors, which is obviously what a recording studio needs to be equipped with.
The wall you see facing you is a black sound-proof cotton wall, which looks very solemn and serious.
Seeing this scene, Kurosawa Hikaru looked at Igarashi Runa with some surprise.
It is hard to imagine that this was prepared in just a few days. Should we say that money makes the world go round, or is it just high efficiency of action
"Come on, let's go into the studio and perform a song for us."
Seeing his astonished expression, Ninomiya Chizuru's beautiful eyes curved slightly, and then she said happily.
He invested 100 million yuan in start-up capital when he first started his business, and he was not disappointed.
In fact, she doesn't care much about the amount of money, as long as Kurosawa Hikaru is happy.
"Okay." Kurosawa Mitsuru nodded, then took the lead and walked over.
He opened the heavy door of the recording studio and walked in.
Maybe it’s because the exhaust fan is on. Even though the room has just been renovated and everything is brand new, there isn’t much smell in the house. There is a little bit but it’s not a big problem.
Compared to this, Kurosawa Hikaru walked to the black cloth and there was a chair.
"You're welcome, just open it. This is a gift from Chizuru to you."
Igarashi Runa followed him in and was also happy to see how happy he was.
There are some things that Qianhe can't say, so she will say them.
Hearing this, Kurosawa Mitsuru looked back, then nodded slightly, gently grabbed the black cloth and lifted it up.
As the black cloth was no longer covering it, an exquisite, stylish, streamlined black grand piano, a work of art, appeared before him.
“It’s so beautiful.”
Perhaps it was the permanent reward for piano proficiency, which brought countless years of experience, but Kurosawa Hikaru was genuinely surprised when he looked at the piano in front of him.
It was huge, tall, and long, made of fascinatingly fine material, and the difference in specifications was apparent at a glance compared to the piano in the restaurant that day.
If the piano in that western restaurant is a third-rate one, then this one is definitely first-rate.
"Runa has already asked someone to tune it. What do you think? Do you want to do a sound test first?"
Ninomiya Chizuru saw his expression as if he had received the best gift, and was genuinely happy, so she spoke.
She likes piano very much, but her parents did not allow her to do so. Now that she has entered society, it is too late for her to learn piano, and she has always felt regretful.
But now, Kurosawa Hikaru not only likes the piano, but also has such superb piano skills. Giving him a first-class piano can be regarded as satisfying his regret.
Kurosawa Hikaru didn't say anything, just nodded, and then gently pressed his hands on the keys.
“Do!”
The heart-stirring tone and extremely sensitive touch made Kurosawa Hikaru's mouth curl up.
If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools.
At this moment, he was extremely convinced by this sentence.
He felt an extremely strong sense of pride bursting out in his chest. With this piano in his hand, he could conquer the world.
Then, Kurosawa Mitsuru began to press the piano keys one by one. Unlike the rough audition at Phantom Star Studio, his movements were gentle, and he understood it patiently and carefully.
This process was very long, but both women waited patiently and closed the door.
After trying out the last sound of the piano, Kurosawa Mitsuru sat down.
Igarashi Runa was so excited when she saw him finally sit down that she nudged her bestie with her arm, as if to say, "It's coming."
Ninomiya Chizuru's mood was also in high spirits, and she was a little expectant.
These days, Runa had been bragging to her about how amazing the Flight of the Bumblebee played by Kurosawa Hikaru was, and now she could finally see it.
"I'm not going to play Flight of the Bumblebee."
Feeling their silent anticipation, Kurosawa Hikaru turned around and looked at them and explained in advance.
Since it was his first performance, he didn't want to use the fast and furious "Flight of the Bumblebee", but wanted to play the "Croatian Rhapsody".
“Not Flight of the Bumblebee?”
Hearing these words, Igarashi Runa couldn't help but feel regretful. She really wanted to hear it again.
The same goes for Chizuru Ninomiya. She really wants to listen to the piano piece adapted by Kurosawa Hikaru.
Then, Kurosawa Mitsuru raised his hands high, slowly placed them on the piano, and began to play.
The next moment, the heart-stirring and clear piano sound resounded throughout the recording studio.
In just a moment, the eyes of Igarashi Runa and Ninomiya Chizuru widened.
In the field of music, there is a saying that "the first opening of a song will make the audience kneel down", which means that as soon as you open your mouth, you will amaze the whole audience.
And now, Kurosawa Hikaru's performance is undoubtedly such a case, like the sound of nature.
In just a moment, people are drawn into the world of music.
"OMG… "
Ninomiya Chizuru was amazed and shocked.
If we say that the "Für Alice" played in the Western restaurant was as gentle as the evening breeze, it would bring people into the gentle music and gradually reach its climax.
Then this piano piece that I have never heard before is like the waves rushing in your face, overlapping and sweeping you into the ocean.
Looking at the handsome man with extraordinary temperament sitting in front of the piano, playing a fascinating piano piece, Ninomiya Chizuru was completely mesmerized.
“I made the right choice!”
Although Igarashi Runa has never learned to play a musical instrument, she has heard countless pieces of music. That is why she can feel the potential of this piano piece.
In the previous song "Flight of the Bumblebee", which Hamada Miya also highly recognized, she fully appreciated the superb piano skills of Kurosawa Hikaru and became even more obsessed with it. With this as confidence, she resolutely quit her job with an annual salary of 20 million.
Having said that, she was a little nervous inside. Although she had strong business capabilities as an agent, she had lost the support of the company after all. Was there really any way to make Kurosawa Hikaru famous
But now, all the worries and concerns in her heart were directly washed away by this piano piece.
Because of the Kurosawa Hikaru in front of her, she felt like she was watching a piano master performing. His elegant and calm posture was so beautiful that it was beyond words.
That’s right, it’s beauty, not handsomeness... That feeling is very wonderful and makes people fall in love with it.
"Croatian Rhapsody" is only more than three minutes long and ends very quickly.
However, until Kurosawa Hikaru withdrew his hands, Ninomiya Chizuru and Igarashi Runa still could not recover for a long time.
The first time I heard this piano piece, the impact was shocking.
Before they could recover from the shock, Kurosawa Hikaru continued playing.
This time, he chose "Exodus", one of Maxim's three famous songs.
This piece of music is so grand and stunning that piano alone is not enough to fully experience its charm. But even so, Kurosawa Hikaru has been composing the music seriously since Monday night, trying to restore that feeling as much as possible.
“How did the second one feel?”
When the playing ended, Kurosawa Mitsuru finally spoke.
“It’s nice, but not as good as the first one.”
Ninomiya Chizuru had already come to her senses while she was still playing.
"Then forget about it for now."
Kurosawa Hikaru was not actually surprised by the result, he just wanted to give it a try.
"Exodus" is awesome, but it's not suitable for piano solo. Its charm can't be fully expressed with just one instrument. It must be performed with a band.
"Which song will you play next?"
Igarashi Runa was still not satisfied and wanted to hear more, as if she was listening to a concert.
"Flight of the Bumblebee" Kurosawa Hikaru met her expectant gaze and said a name with a smile.
"Is it finally coming?"
Hearing this name, Igarashi Runa was very excited.
Because she was very excited, Chizuru Ninomiya was also looking forward to it.
The next moment, Kurosawa Hikaru began playing "Flight of the Bumblebee".
In just a moment, dense and frequent notes exploded instantly.
"Wow… "
When Ninomiya Chizuru saw his performance, she felt her scalp tingling and goose bumps all over her body.
Although I had heard about it before, the feeling of seeing it with my own eyes was still extremely shocking.
This piano piece is even more impactful than the Croatian Rhapsody. No matter who listens to it, they will be impressed.
But unlike his previous performances at Phantom Star Studio, Kurosawa Hikaru's piano skills have become even stronger. From entry level to mastery, it's only a leap in level, but the difference is huge.
“I play it better!”
Even though Igarashi Runa was mentally prepared, she was still shocked when she heard it again.
Because Flight of the Bumblebee is not only an auditory enjoyment, but also a visual enjoyment. The almost showy fingering is pleasing to the eye.
She had a hunch that Flight of the Bumblebee and the first piano piece alone would be enough to make Kurosawa Hikaru famous.
This piece is the shortest and because of its extremely fast fingering, it is over in the blink of an eye.
“Pah pah pah pah!”
When Kurosawa Hikaru put his hands away, Ninomiya Chizuru couldn't help but applaud.
Unlike before, when she looked at Kurosawa Hikaru again, her eyes were full of surprise and admiration.
Although she had seen him play the piano, she really didn't expect that Kurosawa Hikaru could be so good.
"What's your favorite piano piece, Ms. Ninomiya?"
When Kurosawa Hikaru was looked at by her, he felt a sense of satisfaction rising in his chest and said immediately.
"What's the name of the first piece you just played?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Ninomiya Chizuru could feel that he wanted to play it for her, so she said immediately.
Maybe she had other favorite piano pieces before, but now that has changed.
No moment can compare to the moment just now.
Because at that moment, Kurosawa Hikaru used the gift she gave him to play a perfect and beautiful piano piece, and that feeling was unique.
“Croatian Rhapsody.”
Although Kurosawa Hikaru wanted to say the original name, he said it considering the origin of the original work.
"What a strange name..."
Hearing this name, Igarashi Runa felt a little surprised.
"Rhapsodies are all based on folk music themes. Have you ever been to Croatia?"
As a super academic, Chizuru Ninomiya has some ideas about this country, which is a bit strange.
“I haven’t been there, but I happened to learn about this country when I was reading world history.”
"This is a rhapsody..."
Realizing that he created this song in this way, Ninomiya Chizuru couldn't help but sigh.
"indeed."
Kurosawa Hikaru shrugged slightly.
Perhaps it was not very ethical to pretend to be the original author, but there was no other way. He couldn't just say that he was a reincarnated person from another world, right
The only thing he could do was to let Maxim's works resound in this parallel world and let people feel its charm.
