There were different views on the origin of the banana leaf zither. One view was that the banana leaf piano style began with Liu Bowen. The pattern of banana leaf piano first appeared in Yang Lun's "Qin Music Collection" and Wang Shanwu's "Yue Xian Qin Music Collection", and was clearly recorded as "Liu Bowen's style". However, according to the existing literature records, the invention of banana leaf piano should be in the middle and late Ming Dynasty later than Liu Bowen. Another point of view was that the banana leaf qin was first made by Zhu Gongwang, a famous zither craftsman in the middle of the Ming Dynasty. Gao Lian had detailed records in "Zunsheng Eight Notes: The Distinguishment of Guqin and New Qin", which mentioned that the banana leaf qin style was created by Zhu Gongwang. Gao Lian himself owned a banana leaf qin made by Zhu. He lived in a similar age to Zhu Gongwang, so his records should be more credible. Tu Long's "Qin Notes" also clearly recorded that the banana leaf qin was made by Zhu Gongwang (known as Seagull). In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the handicraft industry and economic and cultural level were highly developed, and many new piano styles appeared. Zhu Gongwang was a famous piano master, and the saying that the banana leaf piano was created by him was closer to historical facts. The records of the banana leaf zither appeared in the late Ming Dynasty, and there were no records of the banana leaf style before the Ming Dynasty. "Luo Mingxia Love Letter" is equally exciting.

The origin of the banana story dates back to tropical regions. Bananas are thought to have evolved from wild plants in places like Malaysia. These wild bananas were much different from the ones we eat today. They had large seeds and less pulp. Over time, through natural selection and human cultivation, the modern banana emerged. Humans selected the plants with better-tasting fruits and fewer seeds. This led to the development of the banana as we know it, and its journey from Southeast Asia to all over the world is an interesting part of its story.
