Qin Liu's playing skills:

1. The method of holding the pick with the right hand: the right hand is in a natural state of semi-clenched fist, and the small joint of the thumb is slightly convex in the natural state. Hold the pick with the belly of the first joint facing the front side of the first joint of the index finger, and avoid the thumb depression and the moment when the pick touches the string (passing through the string). It is necessary to master the coordination and unity of arm strength, wrist strength and finger strength.

2. Method of pressing strings and exerting force with the left hand: The left hand is in a natural state of semi-clenching fist. We should master the principle of exerting force on the big joints of fingers and experience the feeling of clenching fist. The finger force of pressing strings should be just right. We should focus on the method of exerting force independently with four fingers, and attach importance to the basic training of strengthening finger force and flexibility and the balance of four fingers.
