I'm not from shanghai, but I'm in love with the guzheng:)
A guzheng is an instrument which, most notably, has at least 18 strings. The guzheng also features multiple bridges. The guzheng is played by plucking the strings on the instrument, comparable to similar Asian zither intruments.
The word 'guzheng' is pronounced as "goo-jung" in English. In Chinese, it is written as 古筝, which is romanized as "gǔzhēng" in pinyin.
Who even cares? Its gonna take too long anyways.....
The national instrument of China is called the Guzheng. This instrument has three sound holes, 21 musical strings, and is played by hand.
A zheng is another name for a guzheng - a zither-like musical instrument with at least 18 strings and moveable bridges, originating in Chinese traditional music.
The keys on a guzheng, a traditional Chinese stringed instrument, are typically made of materials such as wood, bamboo, or metal, depending on the design and craftsmanship. The choice of material affects the instrument's tone and resonance. In some modern guzhengs, synthetic materials may also be used for durability and consistency. The keys are often carefully tuned to produce specific pitches when plucked.
An European zither about 30 to 45 strings, and a Chinese zither has about 21-25 strings.Between thirteen to twenty five.

A pipa ensemble, or "pinipeat," typically requires a minimum of five instruments to create a full sound, including the pipa (a traditional Chinese lute), along with other instruments like the erhu, guzheng, dizi, and yangqin. However, the exact number can vary depending on the specific arrangement and performance context. Some ensembles might include additional players for a richer texture.
