At 9 p.m., Zhou Ying started her live broadcast as usual. She sat sideways to the camera, in front of the piano, with fingers dancing over black and white keys, and the lively music began to play.

Zhou Ying is an associate professor at the Central Conservatory of Music and has been learning piano since childhood. After starting live broadcasts, she attracted many fans because of her excellent playing skills. When she first started doing self-media in 2022, Zhou Ying only posted segments of her online courses. She didn't expect to gradually gain some fans who followed her and hoped she could start live streaming to play the piano.

Zhou Ying was a bit hesitant, how could online live broadcasts present the original sound of the piano? With the idea of letting more people understand classical music, she decided to give it a try. To try to restore the sound of the piano, she spent about 20,000 yuan to equip her live broadcast equipment, including sound cards, cameras, and audio equipment.

At first, Zhou Ying was very nervous during the broadcast and hardly chatted with fans. "Every time I'm in the live broadcast room, I focus on playing classical music." But over time, she found that the effect was not good. "Many random viewers have a low acceptance of classical music."

She changed her mind and began to enrich the types of music, jazz modern music, light music, and film music all became her performance repertoire. She also tried to chat with fans during the break of playing the piano, sharing the background of classical music, and sometimes she would talk about some playing skills, so that everyone could understand and like classical music.

After persisting in live broadcasting for a while, Zhou Ying's live broadcast became more and more popular, attracting people from all walks of life to watch, which was something she never expected.
