Producer System: My Girlfriend is a Cellist-Chapter 75 - 73 This Is the Meaning of Playing on

"You mean, the part where we sing ’Big Banana’ to each other?"

"Right."

Watching that sly, devilish grin I’d never have expected to pop up on Gan Yanyu’s face in this lifetime,

Lin Tian’s face twisted into an expression of horror.

Isn’t this playing it a little too big?!

Just a second ago, Lin Tian was schooling Gan Yanyu on short video knowledge.

The next second, was she already applying this knowledge creatively?

"That part’s pretty embarrassing, isn’t it?"

With the stakes so high, Lin Tian confirmed once more.

"But, it’s fun, right? Everyone should enjoy watching bloopers and outtakes, shouldn’t they?" Gan Yanyu said, biting her index finger.

I’m dying here,

She’s seriously pondering over video popularity!

"Okay, okay, okay."

Since even Gan Yanyu said so, Lin Tian stopped making excuses.

After all, he wasn’t someone with paper-thin skin. Posting such bloopers might even significantly boost the popularity of the new video!

Soon, Lin Tian powered up his laptop and clipped out that day’s video.

And titled it:

["Kangkang Dance" Recording Outtakes]

"Take another look."

Gan Yanyu leaned in as Lin Tian hit play.

"...."

["Hit hit hit hit banana, hit banana hit banana hit..."]

Listening to the voices in the video,

Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu couldn’t help but reminisce about that embarrassing yet joyful evening...

"Do we really post this, Mr. Gan?"

Lin Tian double-checked one last time.

By nature, he was relatively conservative.

There were two possible outcomes for this video.

Either everyone loves it, and ’Moonlight and Cat’ successfully establishes a vivid persona, rapidly attracting a crowd of fans.

Or everyone thinks they’re nuts, and the image of genius performers shatters to pieces...

Thinking about making such a big splash on the internet, one ought to consider it thoroughly.

"Post it before I can regret it," said Gan Yanyu, covering her face, afraid to look any further.

...That action of yours isn’t very convincing, you know!

Lin Tian had no doubts that if Gan Yanyu were to do something she didn’t like with him one day, she’d just close her eyes and hurry Lin Tian to get to it...

Next, Lin Tian quickly tagged the video.

[#PerformingOuttakes #Cello #Piano #Vlog #DailyLife #Funny]

Then, Lin Tian added another line of tags:

[#Bizarre #Horror #HighEnergy #Abnormal #BananaScenes]

"Is that necessary?"

Seeing that string of baffling text,

The girl shrank her head.

The bullish Gan Yanyu thought that the conservative Lin Tian might have gone a bit too far.

"It’ll draw traffic."

Lin Tian asserted seriously.

He knew how to pull in the audience.

In the end, Lin Tian clicked to release the video.

As soon as the video was out, Lin Tian swiftly closed the webpage.

Before tomorrow arrived, he didn’t plan to look at the comments.

"...."

He turned his attention back to the "G minor Pathétique Symphony".

Lin Tian still felt it was a bit of a pity.

Though it gained quite the popularity, and the comment section was full of praises,

eighty percent of the comments were about shipping couples in the piece.

Shipping in the "No. 40 Symphony"...

Lin Tian worried that if Mozart himself knew, he might be so furious he’d come back to life.

Because of this, Lin Tian was also somewhat troubled.

He finally understood the feelings of Gan Yanyu when she first saw the "Ode to Love" video and said, "All they care about is my appearance; no one is really listening to the music."

Lin Tian was now experiencing the same feelings.

This was a piece that they had to record three times to get right.

For this, Gan Yanyu had made a great deal of effort, which made Lin Tian feel sorry for her.

He glanced at the backstage data.

["Nervousness and Excitement" Emotion value: 8932/50000]

Even in such circumstances, he had still collected quite a lot of Emotion value!

Lin Tian’s understanding was:

At the moment when he had flipped Gan Yanyu’s hair, that instant sparked a thrill in many viewers...

This could also be considered a different kind of "Nervousness and Excitement".

But he wondered, could this be considered another angle of interpreting Mozart’s "No. 40 Symphony"...

After all, if one imagined this Symphony as the intense romantic entanglement between two music artists,

perhaps it could also convey this layer of meaning?

It seemed as if she had sensed Lin Tian’s thoughts.

Gan Yanyu sat down beside Lin Tian, saying,

"I think, this is exactly the reason why we need to keep performing."

Lin Tian turned his head to look at Gan Yanyu.

The girl nodded slightly, lifting her head as if thinking about something very interesting, and with a bit of a smile, she said,

"Previously, I’ve only performed on stage. Ever since meeting you, Lin Tian, this is the first time like this, filming fragments of performances into videos for so many strangers around the world to see... this feeling, it’s novel and fun."

"At first, I also felt that it was very saddening that nobody could understand the hard work put into a performance."

"But now, I’ve slowly realized that not everyone in this world understands music, and the videos we post online, only a very small portion of people who deeply love music can see them..."

"So, we will just keep on filming, attracting more fans, and letting more and more people watch our videos. Slowly, one day, they will eventually be able to feel the charm of music through us."

"This is what Mr. Wan calls ’sedimentation’!"

Gan Yanyu raised her index finger, speaking earnestly and gently.

"...."

Lin Tian smiled, relieved.

He hadn’t expected that Gan Yanyu had come to think this way now...

Asking to release the behind-the-scenes video earlier was probably for this reason as well.

For the young girl, this was not a compromise.

It was a redefinition of meaning.

Their videos were no longer just about letting everyone know that "Ode to Love" was a great piece, the significance of the "No. 40 Symphony" in classical music.

But rather, through piece by piece, subtly influencing people...

One day, when they look back, they will realize the musical miracles they witnessed at "Moonlight and Cat".

What Gan Yanyu wanted was not merely for the world to simply know how great she was.

But for everyone to have the capability to know how great she was.

Thinking of this, Lin Tian understood.

"Next week at the concert, let’s put the ’G minor Pathétique Symphony’ at the finale, and play it anew."

"In front of those music media, let’s really give them a show!"
