Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on October 07, 1982)

Happy Birthday, Li Yundi! Your fingers have graced the keys so masterfully that even Chopin himself would stand up and applaud—though he'd need to hurry or risk losing his seat in a packed house applauding your artistry. It's hard to match your effortless cool; who else could make performing piano concertos look as smooth as sipping tea?

From winning the prestigious International Frédéric Chopin Piano Competition at just 18, you've become an inspiration worldwide, proving time after time why you're considered China's "Piano Prince." May this birthday bring you high notes of joy—and cake deliciously sweeter than any nocturne!
