Chapter 224 Big Scene (4K [-]-in-[-])

If anyone else was in the hotel room at this moment, they would be shocked by the strange sight in front of them.

Fan Ning's eyes were slightly closed, his feet were in slippers, his loose pajamas were open, and he was waving the beat with his bare hands, as if he was conducting a small choir casually and easily.

The easy chair hanging about 30 centimeters in the air was moving towards his right hand at a slow speed, with some stumbles.

Fanning beats its movement, cueing the entry with his left hand a few bars later, and then imagining the voices superimposing a rondel while the former moves.

While the easy chair was floating and moving, the shelf holding several belongings and briefcases began to rotate counterclockwise in the air.

The third thread of inspiration was thrown at the decorative model of the sailboat on the table. When it wobbled up, Fanning's thoughts became a little knotted for a moment, and all the floating objects in front of him fell down.

"Can you only control the progress of two voices? Well, it should be that I'm not very familiar with this feeling"

Now that his thoughts were focused on the sailboat, Fan Ning tried to increase the strength of his hands, so the sailboat model flew towards him rapidly, then slowed down suddenly under his control, and finally he was firmly in his hand superior.

"The last scene I dreamed of last night should be the Hui Pagoda in front of the basin. It is a good picture that can be perceived by high-ranking people, but where does this invisible force come from?"

Fanning began to sort out his current spiritual characteristics in his mind.

The Lord of Witness "Endless Fugue" is in charge of the two phases of "candle" and "key". god.

Therefore, the invisible force that I call up through the observation angle of "candle" essentially involves polyphonic techniques, such as "transposition", "retrograde", "expansion", "reflection", "close connection and response" In addition, the most obvious symbol of "candle" is blazing heat and flame, so "transposition" in the specific situation of the current state is expressed as "exchange of two temperatures", and "retrograde" is expressed as "reversal of two temperatures flow", the relationship between other techniques and invisible forces has not yet been discovered.

And the other part of hidden knowledge that I understand - the mystery of command, belongs to the "key".

Conducting means that the characteristics of any part of the orchestra are under control, can be disassembled, tuned in and out, and presented to the audience according to free will. , and invoke their invisible power to a certain extent.

And now.
"This is really a strange embodiment of high-level inspiration." Fan Ning shook his head and smiled.

He thought that the materialization of his inspiration would be something like the usual "spiritual fire" or "spiritual wall".

The result is neither, but in this "command authority", which has been extended to act on ordinary physical objects that do not have the protection of the etheric body.

However, it is also true. Inspiration makes a real object move out of thin air, which is indeed "concretization".

"Since it is the mystery of the 'key', since it is about conducting" Fanning picked up the baton "Old Days" from the pillow, and with the tap of the stick tip, his black silk top hat hanging on the top of the shelf slowly floated up.

Then the pistols and pocket watches floated in the air, and then the canes, chairs and briefcases.

In the hotel room, the six objects were evenly distributed around him at first, slowly circled around the height of his abdomen, and then began to alternately rise and fall like water waves.

Then, the pocket watch, cane, and seat moved towards the corner of the room, the briefcase rose directly to the height close to the ceiling, the top hat rotated counterclockwise in place, and the gray pistol floated five centimeters above the palm of his left hand.

At this time, Fan Ning felt that the "texture of the voice part" was a bit complicated, and the thinking in his mind began to fail to keep up. He tried to throw more threads of inspiration again, and a tightly kneaded paper ball in the trash basket also emerged. up.

At this time, several confusions occurred in his spirituality. The top hat and briefcase fell on the soft big bed, three objects moving in the distance collided and fell together, and the pistol fell directly into his hand.

"From controlling two voices to controlling six or seven voices? The effect of 'Old Days' on the invisible power of the 'key' phase is quite obvious. However, when conducting a symphony orchestra, I will say less about controlling fifteen voices. Ministry, as many as twenty."

The pulling of the thread of inspiration made the floating ball of paper turn black and smoke, and the baton in Fanning’s hand dropped a strong beat, so it turned into a ball of fire and flew past his eyes, striking sparks and ashes on the glass of the floor-to-ceiling mirror .

In the end, Fan Ning stared at the big bed he was sleeping on. It trembled and slowly rose about 20 centimeters before being gently lowered by Fan Ning's control.

Many actions in the guest room could not be performed. Considering the pedestrians on the road in the morning, Fanning's attempts outside the hotel building were limited to tearing off small branches from the trees.

At present, under the premise of using the "old" conductor, the range of this "key" invisible force may be [-] meters in radius, which is close to the stage of an ordinary symphony orchestra in terms of area.

The weight and speed acting on a single object have not yet reached the limit, and it is difficult to have more than seven objects for the time being. The action method is the simplest, up, down, left, and right, and more complex movements of objects will occupy more spiritual attention.

Maybe it can be used in conjunction with the mystery of your own "candle".

All in all, this invisible force has yet to be trained, and Fanning believes that since Qin can become more proficient with practice, it should be the same.

After sorting this out, he suddenly understood why the first scene in his dream last night was a scene similar to tapping the beat with a stick in front of the garden tombstone-in the memory of Mr. Anton's tomb in Liufenas Garden, some people who hadn't noticed or had already Forgotten details, this time through a dream, was excavated from the subconscious by myself.

That day I was standing in the breeze conceiving the "First Symphony". There were withered grass standing upright in the corners of the garden, the soil was turbulent, and the sand and gravel were hanging up.

Perhaps all changes are foreshadowed.

When Fan Ning went out to rehearse, he habitually took a few new issues of art media publications from the newspaper rack in the lobby on this floor. When he went to the special inspection hall yesterday morning to "report his safety", he left too hastily and didn't have time to read them.

At this time, he found that there was a circle of neatly folded four-fold pages placed on the top of the shelf. The layout design and color matching used a more eye-catching scheme, and the fingers felt slightly sticky to the touch. , should be freshly printed.

""Handbook for Identification and Prevention of Pollution by the Evil God Organization"?" Fan Ning frowned and read the title of the folding page gently.

The promotional publications of the Police Department of Tiolein are aimed at the general public of the empire. I have never seen such a direct publication in my life.

In the past, the Special Patrol Office's attitude towards mystery was mainly based on secretive governance. Even the basic information of the official supernatural organization was neither deliberately kept secret nor deliberately publicized, and it could be regarded as high-value gossip in the upper class.

Although the target audience of this hotel also naturally avoids most of the class groups, this can be regarded as half-lifting the action of mysterious side governance to the public level.

The first part of the manual summarizes the common characteristics of covert organizations, such as people who seem normal but have daily mood swings, people with excessive or weird desires, and doors and windows that are obviously showing signs of people coming and going but are often closed, or float out. Places with pungent and foul odors.

The second part sorts out its demagogic means, such as alerting everyone to suspicious high-paying employment, and the "gift" of deceiving people into taking suspicious drugs under the guise of "increasing life span, improving function, and delaying aging".

In the end, it especially warns the middle class and above, and those who have entered the last ten years of life, emphasizing that growth and death are natural laws, and irrational seeking of knowledge or senseless greed for life will only lead to a crazy ending in their later years.

Looking at these characteristics, especially the latter, it is only short of writing the words "harmonization school" on it.

Fanning put the brochure back on the newspaper rack.

"The purpose of this trip to the imperial capital is the concert and the nomination of the 'Boethius Artist'. Other than that, let's discuss it slowly, especially the mysterious side movements that have no direct relationship with me. I still feel free to provide it to my friends. Just as much help as you can.”

He is not interested in the matter of collecting the wreckage of Yuanshen in the special inspection hall, and his own strength should not be involved in it.

"However, there is one more important matter."

After returning to Uvransel this time, although there are still several months before the completion of the renovation and expansion of the Turner Museum of Art, the formation of a professional symphony orchestra will start immediately in advance, so as to allow enough rehearsal time to ensure the quality and quantity of the opening performance .

Just during the period of Fort Santaram, I went to the Ministry of Culture and Media of Tiolein to complete the registration work.

The symphony orchestras of the empire have national and county levels in terms of registration, and are more complicated in nature. There are official professional orchestras directly under the empire or localities, orchestras affiliated to the royal family or public schools, and orchestras belonging to folk groups or Professional or semi-professional orchestras established by individuals, as well as resident orchestras belonging to official/unofficial art venues.

Although this era has not yet formed a modern "art management" or "art marketing" thinking, capital and markets have initially entered the art and artwork industry, and the sources of funding for symphony orchestras are often diversified, so these different orchestras In fact, many categories have cross-relationships.

Generally speaking, a symphony orchestra with a larger official component and a higher degree of professionalism will occupy a higher position in the ranking.

Most artists do not have the idea of ​​starting their own businesses, and their abilities are not developed in terms of operations, but Fanning is different. He has some artistic concepts and the enlightened road guided by "Endless Fugue". They need a platform in the future to implement.

For a personal orchestra like Fanning's, it is usually enough for Uvransell's cultural department to accept and register, but I believe that as the organizer of the summer art festival, they will not reject a quasi-nominated 'Boethius artist' 'Application.

Doing art needs to be pure, but sometimes you have to learn to take advantage of the situation when doing art operations. Fan Ning just wants to take the opportunity of the art festival to gain a wave of predictive voice. outweighs the disadvantages.

Time passed during the rehearsal, and in the blink of an eye, on the evening of the 21st, the display of promotional materials can be seen everywhere in the Philharmonic Square, and gradually extended to the main building of the National Concert Hall.

Posters on poles and light boxes, banners glued or hung on railings, playlists on display racks at entrances.
The concert posters of this era do not have exquisite portraits, blurred backgrounds and gorgeous special effects, but only black and white artistic pattern frames, and several different fonts arranged in new lines, but there is a very simple and attractive classical style. nice.

Horse-drawn carriages and automobiles gathered from all directions in this industrial city. Vendors pushing carts and selling tea and beverages watched the vehicles stop and go in front of the square with expectant eyes. A gentleman stepped out of the carriage and glanced down at his pocket watch. When the time is up, hold on to your top hat and walk towards the concert hall.
The guide hall at the entrance is lingering with soft fragrance, and the objects are plated with a layer of luxurious rose gold. Many people regard this place as an important social occasion after the ticket check is over and the track list is received.

Compared with monotonous men in black and white, ladies in evening dresses of various colors are more dazzling, such as hollow lace on skirts, glittering gem embellishments on fabrics, low collars with bare shoulders or collarbones, or a different style shawls... Elegant and confident smiles appeared on their faces, gorgeous fans kept fluttering as they talked, and the silk ribbons on their white wrists also swayed.

People arrived early, in twos and threes discussing the orchestra, the conductor, the repertoire and the interpretations they had heard, and incidentally exchanging gossip about all aspects of the upper class recently. In a split second in the lobby, they gain a higher level of self-identity.

There were two bells before the performance at the National Concert Hall. Half an hour ago, the bell rang to indicate that the venue was ready to enter, and five minutes before, it was to indicate that the concert was about to start. After the first bell rang, a small number of audience members continued to Admission begins.

"Look, that's Minister Noel of the Ministry of Culture and Media." A lady in a red evening dress on the second floor motioned her companions to look at the row in the middle of the VIP seats below.

"Oh, you actually know this gentleman, so does he know you?" said the companion.

"I also know at least two congressmen next to him." The tone of the lady in the red dress was a little smug, and she ignored the last question, "It's rare for them to come together like this. There are too many of these people during the art festival." affairs to be dealt with.”

"You always have to choose to listen to one or two shows, don't you?" The companion didn't care.

As people entered and took their seats from various aisles in twos and threes, a group of gentlemen also ushered in the distinguished guest seats.

"There are so many bosses from the cultural department here, huh? Inspector He Meng is also here." A man slightly exclaimed in the distinguished guest seat at the back of the first floor.

"Mr. Gardner, can you tell me what the position of the inspector is? I don't seem to be familiar with it." His female companion asked doubtfully.

This Earl of Gardiner was the owner of the Big Godiver Coal Mine Company who had invited Fanning to the pool party.

"Of course you don't know the high-ranking Extraordinary of the secret agency of the Empire, the Special Inspection Office. Oh my God, I saw four gentlemen in bishop's uniforms. That one is Bishop Mir from the churches of St. Janin. Who are the other three? .”

His eyes widened. "Perhaps it's reasonable that Commander Fanning doesn't have time to attend my party invitation?"

"I didn't expect Bishop Christopher to rush here from Uvransel to attend the concert like me?" The upper-class people in other positions were also trying to identify the celebrities in the front row.

"...Where is Sir Viadrin from the Guiding School? Even the famous opera singer Mr. Dominique is here, and next to him seems to be Earl Adair, and there are several opera singers I admire."

"Look there, the oil painting masters of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Asher and Mayella? Those two next to them are the Marquess of McAdam and his wife?"

"My God!! What's going on with this concert?"

"Isn't this scene too big?"

"Is it because of the Violin Concerto in E minor?"

"I understand, it's all because of the announcement on the radio station. Next time I will follow his example, and these people will be able to come to the show I run." Many colleagues feel that they have found the right way to promote.

As the time approached the performance, more and more audiences entered the venue. Many of them, high-class people, naturally found the 7-8 rows of the golden seats in the middle of the VIP seats, almost full of imperial bosses that they could not imagine. level character.

Another three gentlemen of different ages entered from the porch next to the stage, so another row of people in the honored seats stood up and shook hands with them one by one.

"Master Swellink? Master Schillings? Master Nieman?" Music fans everywhere in the auditorium were so shocked that their eyes almost fell out.

How many bigwigs from the art world, religious circles and aristocratic circles have come?
Earl Gardner of the Great Gordifer Coal Mine Company swallowed his saliva forcefully at this moment, and read the playlist in his hand several times, especially the parts involving the names of the conductor and the orchestra.

"This is a fucking student band concert, right!?"
