Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1133 393. Playing the game with my mother [Twelve]

At this moment, without any warning, a strong dominant ninth chord exploded in the live broadcast room.

【You in the Clouds: Revolution】

【Wowowolf: Here it comes, here it comes! 】

No. 02 Chen Yutong played the last piece of this round.

Chopin Etudes, Opus 10, No. 12, titled Revolution.

The stirring descending tone, accompanied by a series of rapid sixteenth notes, brought everyone's attention back to the ongoing game.

The discussion about Lin on the public screen was paused, and everyone focused on the sound of the piano next to them.

The sound flows rapidly, and the emotions are granular.

The emotions are high and the momentum is overwhelming.

Every frame of the music reveals the solid foundation of contestant No. 02.

What is more important is the rich emotions in the music.

There is a desire for victory and an anticipation for the dawn in the music.

Even a tiny dotted note becomes extremely sharp under the finger of No. 02, like a hoarse roar, which is impossible not to be moved.

Mu Xin: “This child”

The music on the public screen started scrolling again unconsciously, and it was scrolling faster and faster, even faster than when contestants No. 09 Sun Wenjun and No. 05 He Jiaming were performing. It was so fast that people could not see clearly what each person was saying.

It was as if everyone's speech turned into notes flying under the fingers of No. 02.

Haitao: “What a strong on-site ability.”

Wang Xiaohu: “She wants to win.”

Lao Tang agreed with Wang Xiaohu's point of view. He felt the same way. That's not right. It cannot be said that he felt the same way. It should be said that he felt the same way because he felt the same way.

It must have been suppressed for a long time.

At this age, living in a place where geniuses gather like the Affiliated High Schools of the Two Academies, children with slightly less talent really have a hard time.

Because even if you practice hard for half a day, you may not be as good as some classmates who play in the piano room for an hour.

The teacher's expectations will never really fall on you. The teacher will even comfort you by telling you not to compare yourself with someone else.

It is said that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, but no matter how hard you try, even if you try your best, you are still not ready.

You dare not ask why, and you cannot ask why.

You can only suppress yourself.

They were all once hailed as geniuses, but why did everything change after coming here?

Who hasn't imagined such a scene before going through so much trouble to get here?

He achieved success at a young age and became famous.

But the reality is that every step from the piano room to the stage is shaky.

Are you willing?
Not reconciled.

Young Lao Tang was also unwilling to give up.

Today, Mr. Tang has to thank his younger self. If he had not used the resentment that he suppressed in his heart as a teenager as motivation at the time, he probably wouldn’t even have achieved what he has today.

Even though he hasn't achieved much now.

This is the artistic path for ordinary people.

When I was young, I admired art, but after I grew up, I no longer talked about art.

No one can be a teenager forever, but there is always someone who is spending his youth.

The dominant ninth chord that young Lao Tang had smashed down in the piano room in the afternoon now flew back from the sky full of notes like a boomerang and hit him right in the heart.

I can't put myself in Sun Wenjun's shoes. At this moment, contestant No. 02 who is playing Revolution is just like the young Lao Tang.

Lao Tang admitted that he was completely moved by contestant No. 02's revolution.

Up to this moment, Chen Yutong is the one who impressed Lao Tang the most among all the contestants.

Lao Tang even selfishly wanted Chen Yutong to get a ticket as well.

This child is on the verge of a breakthrough, which is a world that he has never seen before.

Wang Xiaohu: She wants to win.

Brother Xiaohu said it silently in his heart again. He saw something very familiar in contestant No. 02.

It's the feeling that he is determined to win at all costs!

I can lose easily in the previous games, but this time I really want to win, I really must win!
-
Parents viewing area.

Ang Lee patted Nail's back and looked at the big screen silently.

Looking at Chen Yutong who was performing, he said that he was lying to Wang Xiaohu if he didn't feel any emotion.

After all, they are strictly selected by Huayuan, they are really strict and strong.

There is actually another player like this? Will there be more in the future? Li An doesn't know yet.

After Sun Wenjun appeared on the stage, Li An thought that Sun Wenjun must be the strongest player sent by Huayuan Affiliated High School this year.

As a result, another Chen Yutong showed up.

Because he accompanied Dingzi to the bathroom, he missed the second half of Chen Yutong's allegro movement.

However, before going out to smoke, he also listened to Chen Yutong's Mozart Allegro opening, which he could only say was good, but not amazing.

As for playing the opening of Mozart in a stunning way, none of these kids, including Sun Wenjun and He Jiaming, have the ability to do so.

But after coming back, he was immediately attracted by Chen Yutong's Chopin works.

What attracted him was that the sound of the piano seemed to contain a lot of emotions.

Saving emotions is itself a kind of emotion. Once music has emotions, it comes alive.

Ang Lee was so carried away by the vivid music that he temporarily forgot about the car that was about to appear.

It wasn't until the song "Revolution" was played that the emotions that had been pent up suddenly burst out.

It explodes at the very beginning.

It fits the characteristics of this revolutionary work very well.

Combined with his solid key touch and chord jumping techniques, this piece of music was created.

The music is there, the mood is there, and this is the last piece.

Everything seemed just right.

Even the title "Revolution" now feels more meaningful.

If Ang Lee were to judge objectively, overall, Chen Yutong's level is inferior to Sun Wenjun, and is probably on par with He Jiaming.

But judging from the order of appearance and the on-site effects brought by the work, this gap was eliminated in Ang Lee's subjective consciousness.

In other words, if Ang Lee was a judge, and he gave Sun Wenjun a score of 9.7, then he should also give Chen Yutong a score of 9.7 at this moment.

But there is another problem. If Ang Lee were a judge, he would definitely not give the same score to the two children.

This involves his grading criteria.

If he preferred Sun Wenjun's steady and meticulous playing style, none of Chen Yutong's performances of Chopin's works could achieve that.

If he prefers Chen Yutong's emotion-driven playing style, then Sun Wenjun would appear too conservative.

So giving them the same score would not be fair to either child, even though he admired both of them very much.

Ok.

"Dang!!"

"Wow————"

As Chen Yutong played the final main chord with great force, applause broke out all around.

Li An noticed that a female parent on his left side stood up excitedly. She looked like Chen Yutong's mother.

What surprised Ang Lee was that when the children were drawing lots yesterday, the adults were chatting in the back and it was this female parent who said that raising the finger was useless.

"My daughter never practices high finger raises." Ang Lee still remembers this sentence clearly.

If this person is really Chen Yutong's mother, it means that Chen Yutong has never systematically practiced high finger lifts since childhood.

Li An retracted his gaze and looked at contestant No. 02 who was bowing with more admiration in his eyes.

I have never practiced lifting my fingers since I was a child, but I can still have such a level of key touch at this age. It means I either have the help of a really good teacher or God is blessing me.

9.75.

Ang Lee gave Chen Yutong 9.75 points. If Chen Yutong's performance of the Mazurka had more efficient changes, he would give it 9.8.

Despite this, this is the highest score Ang Lee has given so far today.

Come on, Linlin.

Just have fun.

This is all Li An could say at this moment.

Today’s peak brawl in Group C is a foregone conclusion.
-
The judges' table. Novak finally heard a note that brought out his Slavic nature.

So he cheerfully gave his highest score so far today.

After Chen Yutong finished playing all the songs, the young Mao Ge immediately gave three Arabic numbers: 9.85
One by one, the judges put down their pens.

It may also be that the competition has entered the middle stage and the judges have relaxed.

It may also be that contestant No. 02's performance resonated with some of the judges sitting next to him.

There were also bursts of whispered discussions.

After each contestant finishes their performance, the judges will have three minutes to score the contestant.

Three minutes is neither long nor short.

It's very long for Mao Ge, but a bit short for Zhao Weilin.

At this time, Zhao Weilin's expression was not complicated, but he had not picked up the pen yet.

Because he really didn't expect that both Sun Wenjun and Chen Yutong would perform so perfectly.

Especially Chen Yutong, it can even be said that her performance was beyond expectations.

Last night, he asked his student Shao Jiaye, who is also the instructor of Chen Yutong and Sun Wenjun, to call Chen Yutong's mother.

Comforted Chen Yutong in advance.

Although his name was not listed as the instructor for the two children, he was the one who nurtured both children step by step to where they are today.

The palms of the palms and the backs of the hands are all meat.

moment.

He picked up the pen.

Novak, who was five bodies away from him, had leisurely picked up the repertoire of contestant No. 01.

1.【Piano Sonata No.1 in F minor, Op.2 No.1:1. Allegro- Ludwig van Beethoven】

2.【Valse, Op.64 No.1-Chopin】

3.【Nocturne No. 15 in F Minor, Op. 55, No. 1 - Chopin】

4.【Mazurkas, Op. 17:No. 4 in A Minor - Chopin】

5.【Three-part Inventions, No. 14 in B flat, Bwv.800 - Johann Sebastian Bach】

Damn!
Beethoven's Sonata No. 1 in F minor, first movement?

Puppy Waltz?
Nocturne Opus 55 No. ?
I won’t mention the specific Mazurka.

In the end, it was Bach's three inventions, the fourteenth one, played by a child under fifteen years old?

Faced with such a list of competition pieces, young Mao Ge feels that he is still young.

Taking another look at the instructor of contestant No. 01, Novak felt a little numb.

Although the male teacher looked as handsome as him in the photo, he immediately thought of the Chinese director who had lived in the gangster's yard for a long time.

Looking at the photo of the young teacher again, he seemed to recall something for a moment, as if he had seen this face before.

where?
I can’t remember, but Brother Mao thinks it would be better if we could add a personal introduction to each instructor.

Speaking of this, Novak is a little unhappy with the organizing committee. What's wrong with adding a few more words?
It’s not like you Chinese judges don’t know who is whose student. Do you really think we foreigners know nothing?
Why are you still playing this trick!

Just remove the name and photo in the instructor column.

Why don't you just make it more complete? Isn't this just pure discrimination and making fun of idiots?
Even God couldn’t stand it anymore!

Forget it, he is here to make money anyway.

Mao Ge was just complaining a little bit, he didn't really want to offend Zhao Weilin.
The main reason is that he has been a little exhausted these days because of the various processes and systems.

It was just a matter of a single sentence, but the organizing committee still had to get everyone out of their hotel beds to hold a meeting.

Ugh.

His gaze fell on the faces of the young teacher and student in front of him again. He believed that this pair must have a real teacher-student relationship.

Because based on his personal experience, the uncles and aunts around him would definitely not be able to choose such a set - um - how to describe it?
Such a dramatic set.

As expected of a piano teacher with a big director's reputation, he wanted to get to know this handsome teacher.

What do you think?

Is this set of songs Satan nods to?
Especially the last one!
Novak remembers that when he was a teenager, he wanted to play a Bach piece in the second round of an international competition.

As a result, his teacher, who had won the seventh place in the Chopin Competition, angrily criticized him and said he was crazy.

The way the seventh teacher looked at him made him feel like a toad.

Novak could only scratch his head, but he still said to the teacher in his heart: Teacher, swan is really delicious.

Now Novak believes that he has not grown up yet. There is still a young boy who wants to eat swans in his heart. Physical age is not a problem for him.

But when recalling what the teacher said at that time, he already had some profound understanding.

"Unless you don't want to go to the next round, then go play Bach."

These are the original words of the seventh teacher.

After many years of international competitions, Novak, who is now a little famous, occasionally seriously recalls some of the words his teacher once said to him that he thought were nonsense.

"Don't choose Bach in a big competition unless you are aiming for the gold medal."

Novak has experienced this sentence deeply.

But he still wanted to add that he did not choose Bach in that competition that year, and as a result he still did not make it to the third round.

He was killed by a group of Chinese players like contestant No. 09 today.

well.

Number 14.

well.

Don't let me down, kid. If you play Bach well enough, I will choose a handsome guy who is a little better.

Brother Mao has already started looking forward to it. He hopes that he can risk his life for once.

Because during the three days of competition, in this international piano competition that enjoys the name Chopin, he came as a specially invited judge, and he has not acted impulsively once!
Really. He really is.
Contestant No. 02 just now left him just a little short of winning, but he still held back when he finally started writing.
-
Time goes back to two minutes ago, Chen Yutong bowed and returned to the backstage.

Sun Wenjun went to meet him immediately.

The car not far away didn’t know what the two people were whispering about, but the feeling between them reminded her of Xiao Bei.

Judging from the time, Xiaobei should be waiting in front of the game screen at this moment.

Hehe! The car has this kind of confidence.

At this moment, a staff member came to confirm the contestant's identity information with Xiao Che, and then asked Xiao Che whether he was ready to go on stage.

The little car head is cute.

Staff: “Come on.”

Xiaoche laughed and said, "Yeah, thank you, Teacher Wang."

The staff member was startled for a moment, then saw the work badge on his chest, smiled and encouraged again: "Come on, Che Lin."

It's been three days.

This staff member who was responsible for the contestants' appearance on stage was noticed for the first time by the contestants for his work badge hanging on his chest.

If he hadn't been called Teacher Wang, he would have almost forgotten that he had a work badge hanging on his chest.

It was quite warming for a moment.

"how old are you?"

"Thirteen and a half."

"Then you are the youngest in this group, that's amazing."

"No no!"

A minute passed in the blink of an eye.

"There's still one minute left, please adjust it."

"Ok!"

"Che Lin!"

Just then He Jiaming came running over. He wanted to come with Che Lin, but Che Lin said no.

After thinking about it, he felt that he still had to come and watch Che Lin go on stage. After all, he had also taken classes with Teacher Li, and after all, Teacher Li was Fang Bo's good friend.

So he felt that he should act like an older brother in such situations.
-
Studio.

Everyone on the public screen was going crazy waiting.

Three minutes felt like ten.

All the friends in piano classroom No. 4 have gathered. The children are talking to each other. Even Fu Yu from Group 4 and Dou Dou from Group 2 showed up!
suddenly.

"The next contestant to appear is No. 01 Che Lin."
