Simply imitating others will only make you a shadow of them. Only a distinct style can stand out. Do you think I’m impressive and charming when I play the piano?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Yuexian nodded honestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she was reluctant to admit it, when Xia Weibao played, it was truly captivating. That charm emanated from the very core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the musical instrument store, she had already been drawn in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But isn’t the playing technique for the guqin all the same? The teacher said the fingering is the same; it’s about who is more proficient and can integrate it better. Even in the grading exams, there’s a strict requirement for fingering. If you miss a string, you lose points. So how can you establish your own playing method? It’s all regimented.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao shook her head. This is the flaw in the current education system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Integrating it already indicates a difference.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Yuexian was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyebrows furrowed together; she didn’t know how to express it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand what you’re trying to say. The guqin has eight basic fingerings: Tuo, Bai, Tiao, Mo, Ti, Gou, Zhai, Da. You mean to say these are all fixed, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Yuexian nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao continued, “But these eight fingerings can be combined in various ways, with myriad variations. My fingering is different from what you’ve learned before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How to Tuo, how to Mo, how to Tiao, how to Mo again, how to Gou, and the resulting effect—have you thought about this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s like practicing calligraphy. Horizontal, vertical, slanted, hooked points—the strokes are all set, but the visual effect each person achieves is different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the simplest horizontal stroke yields different effects depending on who writes it. If you can make a horizontal stroke uniquely captivating, with aesthetic appeal—that’s your personal style.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take dancing, for example, a simple backbend can result in different effects depending on who performs it. If you can make the backbend more graceful, that’s your personal style.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why can’t it be the same for the guqin?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Playing the same piece results in different auditory effects between us, and that’s my personal style. If I can have it, why can’t you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your thinking is too limited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world is vast and ever-changing, and this principle applies to the guqin as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Famous players produce beautiful sounds not just because of their proficiency, but also because they incorporate their personal style, which is key.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divergent thinking is vital. When teaching her students, she never teaches them rigidly; she only provides the basics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Chu and Hepburn learned medicine from her. She would teach them everything foundational she knew, including some formulas and needle techniques, but not everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest is up to them to comprehend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each patient’s condition is different. Even something as simple as a cold can be triggered by different factors, requiring them to be adaptable and prescribe accordingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t just give them a cold medicine formula and say, “This is for colds; give it to patients with colds.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she did that, many people might end up harmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After what she said, Yan Yuexian felt as if she had opened the door to a new world.\u003C\u002Fp>",563,"2026-06-06T16:22:12.595Z",1,"novelbin.me","55bdf05c080a04bd1a18d9278efe2a1163fcaa59c9be25b9ac67a5ac71b621d9","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-945","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-943",1766,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fplagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-cover.jpg"]
