Chapter 268 266. Move back quickly, Wang Cheng wants to use the piano!

  If it is normal.

If Wen Yixiao, a thriving superstar, is going to perform, the entire program team will definitely contact Wen Yixiao's agent a few days in advance, and make adjustments and agreements in all aspects to ensure that there will be no problems during the recording of the performance. Something unexpected happened.

But.

This time, the musician program group and even the entire Dragon TV organizer ignored Wen Yixiao, a young superstar who has more than 70 million fans and is second only to Wang Cheng in popularity, and put all his attention on Wang Cheng , all thinking about how to make Wang Cheng happy in the program group, so as to lay the foundation for the next cooperation.

Of course, it's not just the program group and Dragon TV, but even the thousands of spectators present, as well as the contestants and academy representatives on the stage, as well as many insiders who came to join in the fun and the outside world looking forward to the broadcast of the program. , all instinctively ignored Wen Yixiao, a super popular superstar.

  Most of everyone's attention was focused on Wang Cheng.

   Just like the popular entries on external social platforms show the same situation.

  Wang Cheng alone occupies the top five of the top ten, and one person occupies half of the popularity in the entertainment industry. This is by no means a joke.

so.

  At this time, Wen Yixiao came to the stage to play the general order created by Wang Cheng, and the entire program group was caught off guard.

  All of them didn't pay attention to Wen Yixiao's performances in advance, they just thought that Wen Yixiao was using connections to gain popularity.

Hu Xiaoshan turned his head and glared at the staff who registered these materials, and then said: "Director Li, why don't you go and talk to Wang Cheng? Now, there are only two solutions. Either we ignore everyone on the scene and Wen Yi Xiao Xiao's own emotions, directly stopped Wen Yixiao's performance, asked her to choose a new song, and cut this part."

   "Or, let Wen Yixiao play this piece and let Wang Cheng choose a new piece. This is what will disappoint the audience at the scene and in front of the TV."

Zhao Donghu took a deep breath, and said in a low voice: "Then, why don't you just let Wang Cheng perform one performance? Four performances, it's too embarrassing! He went up and played a random piece of music, as long as he can get by. I'll contact a few judges , When Wang Cheng's performance is over, tell them not to talk, otherwise even if they breach the contract and pay liquidated damages, they all pretend to be noble, but in fact they like money very much, so they will definitely agree."

Li Guang calmed down a little, and said calmly: "Don't worry, don't act rashly for now, Wang Cheng can perform as many scenes as he wants, I will ask him now. Anyway, it is recording and broadcasting, and we have the final say on how to edit later! "

   After speaking, Li Guang turned and left.

  Hu Xiaoshan and the others looked at Li Guang with serious expressions on their faces. They felt that Wang Cheng's arrival was just a hot potato, and everything was out of their control.

on the stage.

  Wen Yixiao is still playing this general order, his hands are quickly turning on the strings of the guzheng, and the brisk and picture-like notes are constantly flowing out.

  Wang Chengdu put down his book, looked up at Wen Yixiao, and listened with pricked ears.

  Wen Yixiao's performance has exceeded his expectations, and has reached the level of a guzheng expert, but is weaker than a guzheng master.

  Of course, maybe she just studied this piece deeply enough, and she didn't play other pieces at such a high level.

   Several judges on the stage looked at Wen Yixiao seriously. Obviously, they were slightly surprised by Wen Yixiao's guzheng level at this time.

  At the entrance of the contestants' lounge, Yan Qing, Sun Haibo, Zheng Yun, Phipps, Eva and several other contestants also stood there looking at Wen Yixiao on the stage, and everyone had a look of surprise on their faces.

  Sun Haibo talked the most. Looking at Wen Yixiao, his eyes flashed with surprise, and he said softly: "I didn't expect that Wen Yixiao's guzheng level is unexpectedly high."

  He didn't say that Wen Yixiao's appearance and temperament are even more astonishing at this time, which would make him appear to be a superficial person who cares about appearance, although he himself does care more about Wen Yixiao's appearance and temperament.

  Zheng Yun didn't speak, but there was a flash of approval in her eyes.

  Yan Qing said softly: "For this song alone, I can do this at most."

  Yan Qing is a guzheng genius at Sichuan Conservatory of Music, being able to match her is the best compliment to Wen Yixiao.

  However, Yan Qing looked suspiciously at Wang Cheng who was sitting not far away, and said in a low voice: "If Wen Yixiao plays Wang Cheng's General Order, what will Wang Cheng himself perform?"

  Sun Haibo and Zheng Yun both looked at Wang Cheng suspiciously.

  However, Wang Cheng had already lowered his head and picked up the book to read.

  Li Guang walked quickly to Wang Cheng and sat down, and said in a low voice: "Wang Cheng, do you know about Wen Yixiao performing the general order?"

  Wang Cheng shook his head.

  Of course he doesn’t know, he doesn’t even know what he is going to play, how can he know what others are going to play.

  Li Guang quickly said: "Then Wen Yixiao played this song, what do you want to perform? Do you want to cut this part and give this song to you for performance?"

  Wang Cheng shook his head again: "No, she played very well!"

  Li Guang asked: "Then what repertoire do you play? We will prepare an instrument for you..."

  Wang Cheng shook his head gently again: "I don't know yet!"

  I originally planned to play a general order, and the other three performances depend on the improvisation and mood.

   Now it seems that the four performances all depend on the mood.

  So, for the time being, he himself doesn't know what to perform.

  Li Guang was a little speechless, feeling a little annoyed and powerless.

  If it was when he was in the Eastern Star, he might have lost his temper. At that time, Wang Cheng was not well-known, nor did he show any strength.

   But at this time, he didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction in the face of Wang Cheng, and whispered again: "Then, what musical instrument will I prepare for you?"

  Wang Cheng turned a page of the book and said lightly: "It's just playing an instrument, don't bother, use whatever you have..."

  Li Guang really didn't know what to say.

  If it was someone else, he might just ask the agent to take him away instead of serving him.

   But facing Wang Cheng, he could only bear it, and smiled: "Okay, when the time comes for you to perform, I'll call you!"

  Wang Cheng hummed and continued reading.

  Li Guang turned around and left, and quickly walked back to the working area of ​​the backstage program team.

  Hu Xiaoshan and Zhao Donghu hurried up to greet them, and asked in unison: "How is it? What did Wang Cheng say?"

  Li Guang was silent for a while. In order not to add pressure and negative emotions to the two of them, he could only pretend to be calm and said: "Wang Cheng has his own ideas, and it will be good to watch his performance when the time comes."

Forehead…?

  Hu Xiaoshan, Zhao Donghu, and Gu Jun looked at Li Guang with question marks all over their faces.

   How does this prepare them?

   They have no idea at all.

   And at this time...

  On the stage, Wen Yixiao's performance also ended.

   This general's order, performed in Wen Yixiao's hands is different from Wang Cheng's original performance, with more iron and tenderness.

   There was warm applause at the scene, and many celebrities and entertainers in the audience stood up and applauded, cheering Wen Yixiao and taking advantage of the trend.

   Had it not been for the wrong occasion, there might have been some whistles and cheers.

  The five judges gave Wen Yixiao applause.

Wen Yixiao stood up with a smile on her face. She didn't pay attention to the applause. She looked in Wang Cheng's direction for the first time. Seeing that Wang Cheng was also applauding her gently at this moment, the smile on her face became even brighter instantly. It was brilliant, and even a blush appeared on the smiling face, and hurriedly bowed slightly in Wang Cheng's direction, and then bowed slightly to the audience to express his thanks.

The host Wang Wenjing came up and said: "It's really a wonderful performance. This is the most wonderful general order performance I've ever heard, except for Wang Cheng himself. Wen Yixiao, can you tell me how long you practiced this piece?" gone?"

  Facing the camera and thousands of viewers, Wen Yixiao said without hesitation: "Since I heard it, I practice every day."

   There was some applause again.

  An Keru, Han Xiao, Zhu Ziqi, Lin Mi and others under the stage all made up their minds once again. They must learn a musical instrument well when they go back.

  Wang Cheng is known as a musical genius. If they can learn one more musical instrument, they will be more likely to talk to Wang Cheng.

Wang Wenjing praised: "That's actually not too long. It's only been about a month since Wang Cheng himself played this piece! You can practice this piece to this level in a month, which is very powerful." and talent."

  Wen Yixiao smiled faintly: "Thank you!"

In fact, only she knows that she just has a unique understanding and practice mode for this piece of music. When she practices this piece of music, she will be more focused, and constantly recalling the scenes of Wang Cheng's performance in her mind will also make her feel better. A good understanding of the essence and artistic conception of the piece, so this effect can be played naturally.

  A middle-aged man on the judging panel suddenly said: "Wen Yixiao, are you interested in entering the Conservatory of Music for further study? I think I can get you a place to study in the Central Music Department of Folk Music!"

Everyone looked curiously at the judge who spoke. We all know that this middle-aged man is named Lu Jiaqi, a piano master who graduated from the Central Music Institute, and is now teaching in the Central Music Piano Department. He really has a way to make Wen Yi Xiao entered the Department of Folk Music of Central Music.

but…

Another person in the jury was not happy, Zhang Haijie, the current violin professor of Moyin, is a top student who graduated from the Juilliard School of Music, looked at Wen Yixiao and said: "Wen Yixiao, I think you should come to Moyin Yin, there is a more international learning environment here!"

  Many people at the scene did not expect that Wen Yixiao's performance would cause two professors from famous music schools to compete.

  Tian Wen, who was sitting in the auditorium, had a glimmer of expectation in her eyes, hoping that Wen Yixiao would agree to Lu Jiaqi's invitation to come to Yangyin to learn folk music, then she would personally come forward and take Wen Yixiao under her own door.

But…

  Wen Yixiao shook her head lightly and said, "Thank you for the favor of the two judges, I'm sorry. I don't have the idea of ​​further study..."

  Lu Jiaqi, Zhang Haijie, and Tian Wen in the audience shook their heads in disappointment.

  Wang Wenjing quickly came out to smooth things over and said, "That's really a pity! Thank you Wen Yixiao for bringing us such a wonderful performance. Now, Yixiao, please go down and have a rest. Next, our first round of official competition today will begin!"

   "Please, Sun Haibo from Yangyin, and Phipps from North American Curtis Academy, get ready!"

   After speaking, Wang Wenjing walked backstage with Wen Yixiao amidst applause.

  Leaving the stage, Wang Wenjing whispered to Wen Yixiao: "Yixiao, your performance just now was really wonderful."

  Wen Yixiao smiled softly: "Thank you, your host is also very good."

  Wang Wenjing, as an elite dug out from Shanghai Media University by Dragon TV, is naturally not bad in basic strength, and her image and temperament are also excellent, which is no worse than Wen Yixiao. What is worse now is a good training platform to accumulate experience.

  Wang Wenjing smiled confidently: "It's still far away..."

Wen Yixiao didn't have much chat with Wang Wenjing. After entering the backstage, she went directly to Wang Cheng. She didn't pay much attention to Sun Haibo and Phipps, who were about to perform on stage. She sat down next to Wang Cheng and quickly asked: " How was my performance just now? I saw you applaud me!"

  Wang Cheng glanced at Wen Yixiao, and still said truthfully: "It's okay!"

It is the highest evaluation for Wen Yixiao to be able to get Wang Cheng's OK evaluation. She smiled happily: "Thank you, I practice this piece every day. I originally wanted to play a piano piece today, but later I still chose this song, I want to give you a surprise."

  Wang Cheng didn't talk to Wen Yixiao again.

  Wen Yixiao didn't expect Wang Cheng to answer every word he said, and continued: "What about you? I played this piece, will it make it difficult for you to choose?"

  Wang Cheng shook his head, it doesn't matter to him what kind of music he plays.

  Wen Yixiao breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that if she rashly chose this original work by Wang Cheng, it would make Wang Cheng's performance difficult to choose.

   Seeing that Wang Cheng didn't care, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "That's good! By the way, I'll find a professional framer to frame the painting you wrote about the knight-errant. Would you like to see it?"

  Wang Cheng's ears moved slightly.

He also wanted to properly frame his humble room inscription and knightly behavior, and hang it in his new house at that time. He wanted to see how Wen Yixiao framed it, but he held back, ignored Wen Yixiao, and continued. Read your own book.

  Wang Wenjing who was not far away looked at this scene curiously, and murmured in a low voice: "A fairy-like existence like Wen Yixiao is so humble in front of Wang Cheng, so I don't go there to make fun of myself!"

  She wanted to go over and have a word with Wang Cheng, and it would be best to get an autographed photo or something.

Because, she is also a fan of Wang Cheng, and she went to see Wang Cheng's concert in Shanghai before, and even went to two concerts, and bought high-priced scalper tickets, and Penguin Music's playlist is also Wang Cheng's work.

  She had heard rumors in the circle that Wang Cheng was very difficult to get along with.

  See you today...

  She knew that it wasn't that she was difficult to get along with, but that she couldn't get along with it at all. She could only keep her distance and turned to look at Phipps who was about to start performing on the stage!

  Phips is the first player to perform today.

As a piano genius of the Curtis Institute, Phipps is well-known in the world of classical music circles. He has even held his own personal concert in North America. The tickets are selling well, and the future development prospects are very good. Many art promotion companies are already negotiating contracts with him.

  This time, he wants to win the musician show in Huaxia Magic City, and then go back to hype it up, sign a better contract with the brokerage company, and then prepare for his official debut.

  Classical music geniuses, like newcomers in the entertainment industry, make their debut when they officially start accepting commercial performances.

  Both circles are essentially making money...

   It's just that the pop music industry is better at making money.

   As for the classical music circle, it is more difficult to make money, but the style is higher, and they basically look down on people in the pop music circle.

Wearing an elegant suit, Phipps stepped onto the stage and bowed lightly to the judges and all the audience, then walked unhurriedly to sit down in front of the piano, with a full posture, playing a world The well-known piano piece, known for its brisk rhythm, is a work expressing longing.

  Basically, as soon as the prelude is played, everyone present is familiar with it, even those in the entertainment industry who are not familiar with the classical music circle have heard this piece.

Phipps's performance is indeed top-notch, and the whole person is devoted to the song, expressing the faint yearning and sadness of this song perfectly through the music, and his image is also very good , handsome with a touch of sadness, very attractive.

  The end of the song...

   There was warm applause at the scene.

  The teachers and students of the major music colleges all applauded and expressed their affirmation.

   "Philips is really strong. If he can improve in the future, he will definitely have a place among the world's top piano masters!"

  In the auditorium, Tian Wen applauded and said.

  Chen Yuqi and Yu Hong also nodded in admiration, feeling that this talented student from Curtis Institute played really well, and applauded vigorously at the same time.

   After the applause ended, Wang Wenjing came on stage: "It's a wonderful performance. Next, please give the Phipps contestant a few points!"

   Phipps stood confidently beside Wang Wenjing, facing several judges, looking forward to his own score.

First of all, Professor Hessey, a judge from the Curtis Institute, looked at Phipps and praised: "It seems that you have not neglected yourself recently and practiced hard. This piece is simple, but it will be more difficult to play it wonderfully. Obviously, you did it. I give you ninety-five points!"

  Out of 100 points, Professor Haixi gave 95 points.

   Phipps thanked with a big smile.

  Professor Lu Jiaqi of Yangyin said seriously: "You are indeed a piano genius, but you have not yet reached the perfect performance state I imagined. Therefore, I can only give you ninety points!"

   Phipps was not surprised by this, and also said thank you.

  Zhang Haijie said very easily: "It exceeded my expectations, and I will give you 90 points, but there is still a lot of room for improvement. I hope you can continue to work hard!"

The next two judges, one Professor Mark from the Vienna Conservatory of Music did not comment too much, but calmly gave it 88 points, and the other Professor Tim from the Berlin Conservatory of Music just said a good thing and gave it Eighty-nine points!

  For a piano genius like Phipps, a score below 90 is considered a failure...

  However, the European classical music circle and the North American classical music circle began to confront each other decades ago, so it is normal for the two parties not to want to displease the eye.

   Phipps walked off the stage with dissatisfaction.

  Subsequently, Sun Haibo from Central Music came onto the stage, looking handsome and sunny. After saying hello to the audience, the performance began.

  The song chosen is also a famous song that is brisk and sunny, and the performance is not very difficult.

  At their level, they have already left the scope of showing off skills. Those difficult songs are not difficult for them. What they are pursuing now is the improvement of the realm level, not the pure technical level.

  For the five judges, showing off skills is not something to be praised in their eyes.

   Therefore, both of them choose famous songs that are not difficult technically, but difficult to express artistic conception.

  Sun Haibo’s whole performance was full of passion, and his hands moved in a relatively large range, fast and powerful, so the stage atmosphere was very good.

  When the song ended, the atmosphere of the scene improved a lot.

   There was warm applause at the scene.

   Many teachers and students from Yangyin stood up and applauded directly, expressing their support for Sun Haibo.

  Tian Wen, Chen Yuqi, and Yu Hong also stood up along with other Yangyin teachers and students.

While applauding vigorously, Tian Wen said in a low voice: "Sun Haibo's strength and talent are still higher than Phipps, and Sun Haibo also went to Curtis Institute to exchange and study for a period of time, and his strength has improved very quickly after returning, as if he suddenly became enlightened Same. There should be a chance to eliminate Phipps this time..."

  Chen Yuqi didn't know much about classical music, so she just said: "Sun Haibo's performance is indeed better than that foreigner's, and it can mobilize emotions more!"

   Tian Wen praised: "This is what a real piano master is pursuing. The essence of music is the resonance of emotions! Sun Haibo has already walked on the road of a piano master."

  Tian Wen looked at Sun Haibo, very relieved, and felt that Yang Yin could be regarded as a successor.

  Xu Chaohua not far away said to Yan Yu: "Yangyin is still very strong. A genius like Sun Haibo can only be cultivated by Yangyin!"

  Yan Yu nodded: "His piano performance just now was indeed very good, better than that foreigner Phipps."

   At this time.

   Several judges also started to comment.

Professor Lu Jiaqi of Central Music first said: "It is a very wonderful performance. This simple piece of music has been played by you to create an extraordinary artistic conception. Your performance has far exceeded my expectations. I will give you ninety-seven Points! I just hope you don’t be proud and keep working hard.”

  Sun Haibo smiled and said, "Thank you Professor Lu..."

  Professor Zhang Haijie of Moyin also smiled and said, "I will give you ninety-five points too. If you have time, come to Moyin to learn and communicate."

   Zhang Haijie wanted to poach someone, and he was very envious of Sun Haibo's strength and talent.

  Sun Haibo smiled and remained silent.

Professor Haixi from Curtis Institute has an ugly complexion. With his professional standards, he can naturally hear that Sun Haibo's performance is a step above Phipps's, and he said flatly: "It's a very good performance, I'll give you 90% point!"

  However, it is impossible for him to give Sun Haibo a higher score than Phipps, even if Sun Haibo also studied and communicated at Curtis Institute for a period of time, he is considered half a student of Curtis Institute.

   Phipps in the backstage saw this scene, his face was already ashen.

  He knows, he may be about to be eliminated...

   This stage is so cruel.

   Sure enough.

  Professor Tim at the back also calmly gave Sun Haibo 89 points.

  Professor Mark also gave Sun Haibo 89 points!

   Here it is!

  Sun Haibo's score surpassed that of Phipps.

  Follow the program competition rules!

  Sun Haibo eliminated Phipps, advanced to the next round, became the first member of the top four, and also reached the best result of the previous Huaxia players.

   Just when Sun Haibo was smiling all over his face.

   Backstage, Li Guang had already come to Wang Cheng's side, and asked in a low voice, "Wang Cheng, the first round is over, it's your turn to play, what instrument do you need? What song do you want to play? Do you need an accompaniment?"

Only then did Wang Cheng put down the book in his hand. He didn't pay attention to Wen Yixiao who had been sitting beside her. He stood up and looked at the stage. He said lightly: "Don't bother, just use that piano!"

  Wen Yixiao, who was sitting next to Wang Cheng, widened her eyes slightly and rubbed her ears, wondering if she heard it wrong.

   And Li Guang was slightly startled, and asked, "Wang Cheng, what did you say?"

  Wang Cheng said again in a calm tone: "Just use that piano, no need to move it around, it's too troublesome, and it's a waste of time..."

  Li Guang and Hu Xiaoshan behind were all speechless after hearing this.

  However, Li Guang reacted the fastest. He only wanted to agree to all Wang Cheng's demands, so he immediately turned around and shouted to the person who moved the piano on the stage: "Don't move it, put it back!"

   Several people froze for a moment...

  Sun Haibo and Wang Wenjing, who had just turned around and walked down, were also taken aback. Several other players, as well as Phipps, who had just been eliminated, also looked at Li Guang and Wang Cheng.

  Looking at a few people in a daze, Li Guang raised his voice and scolded: "What are you doing in a daze, move back quickly, Wang Cheng wants to use the piano!"

  All eyes are fixed on Wang Cheng...

  Wang Cheng ignored the gazes around him, but walked towards the stage in a leisurely pace, preparing for the next performance.

  (end of this chapter)
