Shen Wei playing his grand Steinway in the middle of his beautiful stage. The sound of his melody engraved in the full power, bringing all the feeling in his heart. The soothing feeling echoing all around the huge hall. His finger moves with power in the keys. In the grand hall filled with human, he could only hear his own melody.

As his delicate finger move, the audience gets immense at the music. This is his piano recital which has work hard to accomplish. His friends, who know him, should already know that this is his dream.

Some beads of sweat running in his forehead but he ignore them to finish this song. Everyone who's listening receiving a great impact from his song. On every single play he did, transferring all his heart wants to convey. If they just closed their eyes, they could sense the love he has, the sadness and the longing he has to bear and how he manage to say it with every of his piece.

Shen Wei is crazy with his piano music. He has been playing it since he was a little kid. Piano is his life. The suit he wears, the tie, or even the glasses that he put up this morning loses his interest as soon as he meets the piano. It is as if a morning light beaming on him. All about the beauty that people talk about from his appearance was never a matter to him. Nevertheless no one could deny that he is so imposing. Such a feast for the eye, his fans also included them, who cannot understand music, but to appreciate his beauty feature of Shen Wei.

Shen Wei is, when he is in front of his piano, showing the best of him. He is, as the rumor has talk, amazing. His charming music, splendid smile, even his gentle personality is famous in the world of music. Surprisingly, he's also known as the ice of Prince. He doesn't talk much, if it's not about music even where he is famous, not many magazine or TV is able to interview him. In his first debut, some were so sure that his music will be full of sensitivity and cutting the mood with cold icicles. But surprisingly, his rhythm was warmer than people has expected, the voice he played bear his kind and compassionate origin.

When the song is finished, he thanks the audience with deep bow. In the middle of amazing applause, he left the stage. The performance is not at the end, he only finished the First half. The second part will be continued after an hour break. So he gets back to the waiting room to take a break.

"Is there any water?" He asked.

Xian Xi, his manager, bringing him water as soon as he can.

"Here you go brother" he said. "How is it?"

"It's good, I feel good" he answered, when he's trying to open the bottle.

Shen Wei drinking his water from the bottle. Raising his foot at the footrest, keeping his mind on one destination, to play piano with all he got. The schedule detailing that he would only got 30 minutes of intermission before he got to the next play. He put his specs and put it on the table near him. Lay his back on the sofa and shutting his eyes.

He enjoys his life, not because it's easy, but because he got the chance to lay a punch on it. Playing his own piano to be listened by the world, he can't find other luxury other than this. Maybe having this kind of everyday event wouldn't be so bad, until he's forgotten. Positively, he could handle this until his energy completely submerged by some new star that shining from another land, he didn't really sure.
