Several people around pricked up their ears to hear the conversation between Wang Cheng and Li Guang, and wanted to know what instrument Wang Cheng would use for his next performance!
Of course, according to their common sense...
Based on the level of violin performance Wang Cheng showed just now, they should most expect Wang Cheng to continue to play a violin piece, because this is the best and highest level of violin performance they have ever heard, and it is nothing to listen to another piece enjoy.
In other places, they can't hear it at all, and no one can play that kind of listening enjoyment with money.
Even if Wang Cheng does not play the violin, they will still look forward to and enjoy the first piano performance of that level. There are not many piano performances of that level in the world, and maybe there is no one now. Here, only Wang Cheng can hear such a level of piano auditory feast!
but…
They had more expectations for Wang Cheng.
What if Wang Cheng plays other musical instruments and can still bring a super feast to their ears?
Although this is usually a whimsical and impossible idea, but now with Wang Cheng, there is such a slight possibility.
Even the top talents of several famous music schools and the leaders of the three music schools did not dare to use any common sense they knew on Wang Cheng at this time.
Wang Cheng's performance just now has proved that he does not belong to the existence within the scope of common sense...
So, at this time, no one dared to guess what Wang Cheng would do next. They just looked at Wang Cheng with eyes and looked forward to Wang Cheng's choice.
Wang Cheng glanced at Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan, then continued to read, and said softly, "I don't know!"
Forehead…
All the expectant people around were taken aback for a moment, and then their faces were speechless and helpless.
Even Wang Cheng himself didn't know what he was going to play in the next performance, so they naturally couldn't guess it at all.
Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan smiled wryly, and knew that this was Wang Cheng. No one knew what Wang Cheng would do next, including himself.
Hu Xiaoshan said with a smile: "Okay, you have a good rest, and when you have an instrument you want to play, you can notify us at any time! If you have other requirements, you can also call us at any time. We will definitely find a way to satisfy you."
At this moment, Hu Xiaoshan also turned into a dog licking from the bottom of his heart. He just wanted to make Wang Cheng happy and leave a good impression on Wang Cheng. A super genius collaboration that delivers surprises.
All the complaints and prejudices against Wang Cheng in my heart disappeared completely...
Ignore people? Playing big names?
Of course geniuses have weird personalities...
Do whatever you want, do your own way?
Genius is of course like this...
Director Zhao Donghu immediately said to the two staff members: "Go and move the chair in my office to Wang Cheng, the chair in the lounge is uncomfortable!"
The two staff immediately turned around and ran to Zhao Donghu's office to move chairs.
This operation made Wen Yixiao next to her, as well as Sun Haibo, Zheng Yun, Phipps and others around her, very speechless, with a little envy in their eyes, but no jealousy or hatred.
Because these geniuses all know that Wang Cheng deserves this kind of treatment, even better treatment than this is a matter of course...
If Wang Cheng is willing to talk to them, the top talents from their respective famous music schools will also turn into licking dogs to hang around Wang Cheng!
It's a pity that Wang Cheng didn't even bother to look at them.
Several staff members quickly moved the large boss chair and placed it next to Wang Cheng, and moved a smaller one for Wen Yixiao to sit on.
"Wen Yixiao, you are tired too, change to a more comfortable chair and rest."
Assistant director Gu Jun said with a smile.
A question mark flashed above Wen Yixiao's head, and he played Wang Cheng's General Order for the first time, and then sat here all the time, doing nothing, where did he get tired?
Wen Yixiao smiled: "No, thank you director!"
Seeing that Wang Cheng ignored the courtesies of the program crew, she didn't move.
Zhao Donghu, Hu Xiaoshan, Li Guang and the others looked at Wang Cheng. Seeing that Wang Cheng was still sitting there reading a book and had no intention of changing the chair, a trace of embarrassment flashed across their faces.
After all, there are dozens of pairs of eyes watching, several contestants, several student leaders, two hosts, and many staff members of the program group.
Wang Cheng ignored their hospitality in this way, which made them a little embarrassed.
but…
They dare not be angry.
Li Guang immediately smiled and said, "Well, then Wang Cheng, if you want to rest, we won't disturb your rest! If you need anything, please call us."
Wang Cheng nodded, but still did not speak, his eyes were still fixed on the book in front of him.
Li Guang, Hu Xiaoshan, and Zhao Donghu all heaved a sigh of relief, turned back to their seats, and looked at Eva's piano performance on the stage.
They quickly came out of the embarrassment just now, and their eyes focused on Eva who was playing the piano.
Hu Xiaoshan listened for a while, looked at Eva, who looked like an angel, and sighed in a low voice: "Eva is indeed a famous piano genius in Northern Europe, and she is the contender for this year's championship. This classical piece is played very well. If it wasn't for listening to Wang Cheng's performance just now, maybe everyone would be amazed by Eva's performance."
"Unfortunately, now, everyone doesn't think this level of performance is so good..."
Li Guang, Zhao Donghu, Gu Jun, and the hosts Wang Wenjing, Zhou Zhe, Han Feng, Li Xiang and others all nodded slightly after hearing this, and agreed with Hu Xiaoshan's words very much.
They could all see that several judges at the scene, as well as teachers and students of many music colleges in the auditorium, watched Eva's performance calmly, and some of them were even absent-minded, such as the judges seat Professor Mark, Professor Lu Jiaqi and Professor Zhang Haijie on the Internet obviously didn't pay much attention to Eva's piano performance, and maybe their thoughts were still recalling Wang Cheng's violin performance just now.
Professors Tian Wen and Xu Chaohua they knew in the auditorium were also absent-minded, and they might also be recalling Wang Cheng's performance just now!
Just now, the perfect performance of Wang Cheng's violin piece "Song of the Vagabond" really made all of them who understand music art unforgettable for a long time. The artistic conception and picture of the perfectly expressed music still echoed in their hearts .
So, in comparison, Eva is already comparable to the piano performance of ordinary piano masters, so it seems thin and tasteless.
Zhou Zhe glanced at Wang Cheng from time to time, then at Eva and the judges, and his desire to bring Wang Cheng back to Yangyin became stronger and stronger, so he turned around and went backstage, took out his phone and called School leaders.
buzz buzz...
The call was connected immediately.
Zhou Zhe quickly said: "Principal Yang, I want to recruit a super genius to our college!"
Principal Yang on the opposite side immediately agreed: "Of course, as long as you are a musical genius, you can find a way to recruit them. If you have any problems with the treatment, you can agree first and discuss it when you come back."
Yangyin has never been stingy in recruiting talents, because it wants to hit a higher ranking in international music schools. In recent years, it has spent a lot of money to recruit many internationally renowned musicians to teach at the school. Several top music gifted students also earned a lot of blood with several prestigious schools at home and abroad, and they took a lot of benefits to grab them.
So, Principal Yang agreed without hesitation.
However, Zhou Zhe immediately said: "I need to apply for greater authority. I gave him my position just now, but he didn't agree!"
Principal Yang was silent for a while, and then asked loudly: "I heard it right? You gave him your own position? The director of the piano department? He didn't agree? Who is it? A famous professor from a top prestigious school?"
If a famous professor from a top music school wants to come to Yangyin, President Yang will definitely give him a high position.
However, he knows that those famous professors from top prestigious schools are not willing to come to Huaxia to take up positions. They have contacted a lot over the years, and the highest offer the vice-principal's treatment, but the other party did not agree.
Zhou Zhe said seriously: "No, it's a young man in China, only nineteen years old! You may know..."
Principal Yang was silent again for a few seconds, and then asked firmly: "You mean, you mean, you wanted to invite a 19-year-old genius in China to be the deputy director of the piano department of Yangyin, but he refused? I still know this person? Who is it? When did such a super talented person appear in China?"
Principal Yang racked his brains to think about it, but he didn't expect any 19-year-old genius in China to be worthy of Zhou Zhe's dedication, so he gave up his position as the head of the department...
The problem is, it was rejected!
who is it?
He knows all the top music talents in the country, because he is in charge of recruiting and recruiting talents.
He didn't even know that there were such talented people in China.
Zhou Zhe: "Wang Cheng!"
Principal Yang was silent for a few more seconds, and then asked suspiciously: "Wang Cheng? Why didn't I know there was such a musical genius?"
Zhou Zhe smiled wryly: "He used to be in the field of pop music, and he performed a general order, you know, right? He is the most popular in the entertainment circle now."
Then…
Principal Yang was silent for more than ten seconds this time, and asked Zhou Zhe to check if the phone was hung up. Then, Principal Yang's voice suddenly came out: "Old Zhou, are you kidding me? Although he is indeed a musician Genius, I have also listened to a few popular songs. They are indeed very high-level and thoughtful. The General Order was also highly praised by Professor Tian and recommended to the academy for promotion. However, it is not worth asking you to recruit the head of the piano department, right? Moreover, he has great ideas and standards in guzheng, what does he have to do with the piano department?"
Zhou Zhe said with a wry smile: "Principal Yang, he participated in the recording of our musician program today. There are four performances to be performed, and two performances have already been performed. One piano performance and one violin performance. The standard is beyond your imagination. And the two songs are all original by him!"
"The specific situation, when the program is broadcast, you will know it after watching the program. It will definitely shock you, and it will also shock everyone in the music and art circles of the whole world."
"If we don't try to find a way to get him to join Yangyin now before the show is broadcast, it may cause looting from all the famous music schools in the world."
Principal Yang quickly asked: "You mean, he performed a piano performance and a violin performance with a super high level of different instruments? And he used his own compositions? The works are also excellent? "
Zhou Zhe replied affirmatively: "Yes! It's not an ordinary super high level. I personally think that the piano performance can be ranked among the top three in the world today, or even the first. The level of the violin can definitely be said to be the first in the world today! Those two pieces, also It definitely has the potential to become a handed down work.”
Principal Yang: "Old Zhou, are you kidding me? Professor Tian asked me to recommend him, and I have learned about him. He is only nineteen years old, and he has not systematically studied the basics of music knowledge before. How could he be so Great piano and violin skills? How can it be possible to create works handed down?"
"Moreover, Professor Tian also said that his guzheng is also at the level of a master! Old Zhou, tell me, does such a person really exist?"
Zhou Zhe was silent for a while.
He knew that if he was Principal Yang, he would definitely not believe what he said...
This is simply too magical, too dreamy.
No, magic novels and fantasy novels dare not write like this.
but…
He saw it with his own eyes, heard it with his own ears, looked through the crack of the door at Wang Cheng who was still sitting quietly reading a book not far away, and then glanced at the direction of the program group, and found that Li Xiang and Han Feng were also gone. He said with certainty: "Principal Yang, I dare to use my own reputation and personality to guarantee that I didn't tell a lie. You will know when the show is broadcast. Or you can practice Professor Lu Jiaqi and Tian Wen later. Professor, they are also there, they may know better than me."
"We must recruit Wang Cheng with the best conditions as soon as possible. Now our competitors are only a few domestic colleges and universities. We have a great advantage."
"I'm sure, if we can recruit Wang Cheng back, he will directly promote our Yangyin to the forefront of international prestigious schools!"
The location in the forefront of international prestigious schools...
At least the top ten are qualified to be called the forefront, and they are all truly the world's top schools.
Last year, Yangyin was ranked in the forties, and just entered the top 50. It is barely considered a world-class music school!
Who can single-handedly raise Yang Yin from the top 40 of the family to the top ten?
Even if those music masters were revived one or two hundred years ago, it might not be possible, right?
The colleges where those music masters worked have also developed for a long time and accumulated a lot of music and art background, so they rank among the top in the world, right?
Wang Cheng alone can bring Yangyin to the forefront of the world?
Principal Yang instantly felt that Zhou Zhe was bragging, but he didn't know why Zhou Zhe was bragging so easily.
This makes no sense...
Principal Yang calmed down and said, "Director Zhou, let's discuss this matter after you come back, and hold a meeting with the others. The appointment and dismissal of the department head level is not something that you and I can decide casually..."
As soon as Zhou Zhe heard it, he immediately knew that Principal Yang didn't believe him, so he said anxiously: "Principal Yang, listen to me, I really didn't lie to you!"
Snapped!
tuk tuk tuk...
The phone received a busy tone that was hung up.
Zhou Zhe stared blankly at the phone, then smiled wryly, and then slowly walked out of the room, and then saw Han Feng and Li Xiang not far away, also talking excitedly with their phones.
Obviously, he knew that these two must also be in contact with the leaders of their respective schools, wanting higher authority to recruit Wang Cheng.
However, based on the excited emotions and actions of Han Feng and Li Xiang, he knew that it might not be going well, and maybe he was questioned by the school leaders just like himself.
After all, it is really difficult for knowledgeable people to believe such a thing without seeing or hearing it with their own eyes.
However, in this way, Zhou Zhe also breathed a sigh of relief. At least the three colleges are still on the same starting line. Seeing the two walking out with a somewhat disappointed look, they knew that the two might not have obtained the higher authority of the college.
At this time, Eva's competition performance outside had also ended, and there was a relatively warm applause at the scene, but the people in the backstage could tell that everyone who applauded looked calmer, and obviously did not have too much interest in Eva's performance Excited.
Although, Eva's performance is very powerful.
but…
Did not surprise any audience, nor did it arouse any emotional resonance from any audience.
This is a failure for a classical music performer.
Eva took a deep breath to calm down her emotions, because she had already expected such a scene, so she was not too disappointed.
She has tried her best to show her strength, which is much better than Andre who made a mistake just now.
Professor Lu Jiaqi first said: "Very good performance! Eva, I appreciate that you were not affected by Mr. Wang Cheng's performance just now. I will give you ninety points. Come on!"
Not influenced by Wang Cheng...
In Lu Jiaqi's opinion, Eva is even more powerful.
Zhang Haijie thought so too, and gave it ninety points.
Professor Haixi commented: "Your piano performance is the one I recognize the most among the contestants. Although it is far behind when Mr. Wang Cheng played the No. 1 etude. However, you can perform stably. Your own strength is enough for a high score. I'll give you ninety-five points!"
Professors Tim and Mark also gave high marks of 92 and 93 points respectively!
Both of them also believed that it would be very rare for Eva to fully display her strength after Wang Cheng, and to perform at such a level.
because…
They know that the more they understand music art, the more seriously they will be influenced by Wang Cheng.
Just like them and many other audiences at the scene, they are still affected by Wang Cheng’s violin etude No. 1, and their emotions are still in that song...
Eva also recognized the result, and smiled: "Thank you! Today's win or loss is not important to me. Because, I can see and hear the incredible music performance, which is the biggest part of my visit to China this time." Harvest. Perhaps, this will affect the music path of my life.”
Eva also expressed her thoughts in front of the camera and in front of everyone: "Mr. Wang Cheng's performance has shown me what is the real art of music, and it has pointed out the direction and way for me to move forward. Thank you..."
After speaking, Eva turned around and left the stage very generously.
There was warm applause at the scene, and the teachers and students of many music colleges were full of approval and emotion.
They also felt this way at this time, as if they saw the direction of music art all at once, no longer confused in their hearts, and had a clear goal of their efforts.
This is a rare thing...
So, their applause was very warm, not only for Eva, but also for Wang Cheng.
The other contestants in the backstage, Sun Haibo, Zheng Yun, Phipps, Andre, Yan Qing, Yun Na, Bruce and others also had sympathetic expressions and applauded one after another, but their eyes looked at him from time to time. Wang Cheng saw that Wang Cheng, the protagonist of today, was still reading his own book, and he didn't glance at them or the stage, as if these had nothing to do with him.
Several contestants are still full of helplessness and a trace of loneliness...
What they pursue all their lives is something that people don't care about and can do whatever they want.
This feeling is really powerless.
Eva came to the backstage and looked at Wang Cheng. Seeing that Wang Cheng was still reading a book quietly, she plucked up the courage to come up to Wang Cheng and whispered in strange Chinese: "Mr. Wang Cheng, thank you for giving me a book today. It pointed out the direction of the music. Can you give me your contact information? I hope that I can often ask you for advice and study in the future..."
Contestants such as Sun Haibo, Zheng Yun, and Phipps, as well as people from the program group such as Li Guang, Hu Xiaoshan, and Zhao Donghu, as well as Zhou Zhe, Han Feng, and Li Xiang, the school leaders with heavy thoughts, and Wang Si Wen Yixiao and others beside Cheng all looked closely at Eva, who seemed like an angel descending into the world, and Wang Cheng!
They all know that as long as Wang Cheng asks, Eva may be willing to do anything for Wang Cheng...
but.
Wang Cheng still didn't seem to hear, didn't even look at Eva, ignoring this musical genius like an angel descending from the mortal world.
Wen Yixiao, Sun Haibo, Zheng Yun, Yan Qing and other players, as well as Zhou Zhe, Han Feng, and Li Xiang, were inexplicably relieved. They were all afraid that Wang Cheng and Eva would have a personal relationship.
Seeing that Wang Cheng still ignored this angelic musical girl, although he felt that this was not the way a normal man should behave, but it was what they all wanted...
No one present wanted Wang Cheng to be abducted by Eva.
Eva's expression flashed with disappointment.
Producer Hu Xiaoshan hurried forward and said: "Eva, Wang Cheng is resting and doesn't want to talk. You just finished the performance, so take a rest too! If you want to ask Wang Cheng for advice, look for opportunities later..."
Eva forced a smile, lowered her head and returned to her seat to sit down, looking lonely.
Sun Haibo, Zheng Yun and other contestants looked at each other, and they all felt sorry for each other. They all had the idea and impulse to communicate with Wang Cheng just now, but they were afraid of being ignored, so they held back.
Seeing what happened to Eva at this time, she looked really lucky...
The host Wang Wenjing looked at Yan Qing who was in a daze, and reminded: "Yan Qing, it's your turn to perform!"
Yan Qing froze for a moment, then nodded in embarrassment: "Oh, okay, I see, I'm going now..."
After finishing speaking, Yan Qing hurriedly walked towards the exit of the stage, constantly adjusting her status.
However, Yan Qing's mind is very relaxed.
Because, after all, guzheng instruments are not as popular as pianos in the world, and even in China they are not as influential as pianos!
So, Yan Qing is already very satisfied with being able to reach the current ranking with guzheng performance, and Xu Chaohua and other Chuanyin leaders are also very satisfied.
For her follow-up performances, she only needs to use her strength with a peaceful mind, and promote and enhance the influence of Guzheng. That's enough!
Whether she advances or not, she doesn't have much expectation.
Of course, the main reason is that her opponent, Eva, is also very strong. She is one of the top ten young music talents in Europe. In addition, the piano has a wider audience. Yan Qing also knows that she has not defeated Eva to advance to the next stage. possible.
unless…
Eva made an obvious low-level mistake like Andre just now.
Otherwise, Yan Qing knew that he basically had no hope of advancing.
so!
She was very calm.
The piece she performed on stage is also a famous classical Guzheng piece, which is a famous Zhejiang-style Guzheng piece from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. With her playing skills and her own temperament, many people are impressed.
Wang Cheng listened and raised his head slightly to look at Yan Qing.
Wen Yixiao saw Wang Cheng look up at the stage rarely, and asked curiously in a low voice: "How is Yan Qing's guzheng performance?"
The surrounding Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan, especially Sun Haibo and other players all pricked up their ears and listened. They wanted to know how Wang Cheng evaluated Yan Qing, and how Yan Qing could attract Wang Cheng's attention!
Wang Cheng only answered two words: "Not bad!"
After finishing speaking, he continued to read the book without looking at Yan Qing again.
but…
Wen Yixiao, Sun Haibo, Phipps, Zheng Yun, Eva, Andre, and everyone else had obvious envy flashing across their faces!
it seems...
It is a great honor to get a good evaluation from Wang Cheng. It is better than being affirmed by several judges on the stage, and it is better than being promoted!
Yan Qing showed her strength perfectly with a calm mind. She performed this Zhejiang School Guzheng music very well. After the performance, there was a lot of applause at the scene. The teachers and students of many music colleges in China still supported Yan Qing. Qing, I hope Yan Qing can beat Eva to advance.
Just now, Sun Haibo and Zheng Yun both advanced. If Yan Qing advances again, then this year's musician program will have a bumper crop of Huaxia contestants.
Professor Lu Jiaqi praised: "Yan Qing, you have improved again, and the emotional resonance of this performance has deepened. I will give you ninety-five points!"
Zhang Haijie also said: "In the future, you will definitely have a place among the guzheng masters in China! I will also give you ninety-five points..."
Two domestic professors gave Yan Qing high marks, and Yan Qing thanked her with a smile.
However, Professor Haixi, Professor Tim, and Professor Mark don't know much about Guzheng, and they don't have such a deep understanding of the artistic expression of Guzheng music. They are far inferior to their understanding and understanding of piano, so they all Yan Qing was given a low score, only 85 to 90 points, the total score was significantly lower than Eva!
However, Yan Qing still thanked with a smile, not caring about the score or victory, and said: "Thank you, thank you for your affirmation. Although I have to leave this stage, today I can hear Mr. Wang Cheng's performance, which is the biggest gain." It's..."
After speaking, Yan Qing also left the stage.
There was an extremely warm applause at the scene!
This applause is the same as the last time Zheng Yun's performance ended, not only for the contestants, but also for Wang Cheng who is about to appear on stage.
The host Wang Wenjing also said excitedly: "Congratulations to contestant Eva for qualifying. Next, we welcome Mr. Wang Cheng and bring us the third performance again! To be honest, I still don't know what Mr. Wang Cheng will perform. , but this is the performance I am most looking forward to..."
The applause from several judges and thousands of spectators became even more enthusiastic.
The staff of the program group are also about to start cleaning the stage, taking down the guzheng and chairs that Yan Qing just finished performing!
but…
At this time, Wang Cheng stood up under the watchful eyes of Yan Qing, Eva and others. Seeing that several staff members on the stage were about to remove the guzheng, etc., he said to Li Guang: "No need to move, just use the guzheng." .”
Li Guang and the others who had been waiting for Wang Cheng to speak looked at each other with a feeling that it was true.
Everyone else was surprised, but not too shocked...
It seems!
What does Wang Cheng do.
It's all as it should be...
