This is an essay on music philosophy written "beyond performance" by the young pianist Zhang Haochen.

This girl, whose online name is "Little Savage Fanfan", has traveled to more than 50 countries in the past six years.

Mu Xin said, "On the day I became famous, I watched myself being buried." Before returning to his hometown of Wuzhen from the United States in his later years, he decided not to enter galleries, auction houses, receive interviews, give lectures, publish articles, accept gifts, or write inscriptions - these seven "nos" are also his attitude on the day he returned home. Mu Xin said that a person's position in history is nothing more than a bed. In addition to all Mu Xin's published works, there are also a considerable number of notebooks and scattered manuscripts, which have never been published and are estimated to exceed one million words. Since Mu Xin usually does not indicate the year of writing, it can be inferred from the content and handwriting that a small part was written in the 1980s, and the majority was written in the 1990s and the new century, until his death in 2011. The contents of this batch of posthumous manuscripts are broad and miscellaneous, and are not divided into chapters. They can be written as they go and are rarely complete in length. These include names of people, bills, book lists, catalogs, letters, and occasionally simple book designs drawn by hand, as well as his own cemetery. Haiku, random thoughts, old-style poetry, and free verse that readers are familiar with account for about half of the work. The rest is somewhere between miscellaneous notes, memos, narratives, and recollections of the past, as if talking to oneself, and is different from all his published works. On the tenth anniversary of Mu Xin's death, the first batch of Mu Xin's posthumous manuscripts can finally be handed over to readers.
