Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1158 418. The inevitable repertoire expansion plan [Part ]

Insufficient repertoire.

This cannot be blamed on Ang Lee, nor on Xiaoche.

If you want to blame someone, you have to blame Tang Qianfeng for being too loyal and righteous.

This made Ang Lee a little uneasy.

But let’s not worry about anything else for now, let’s just hold the concert first, then we can think about other things.

Are those who are barefoot afraid of those who wear shoes worrying about them?

It doesn't make sense.

The biggest problem now is that Andrew Lee has to give Tang Qianfeng a list of songs in the shortest possible time.

The plane landed smoothly and Haitao came to pick it up.

Haitao didn't mention the competition, and everyone chatted and laughed all the way to the entrance of Boyuan Chinese Restaurant.

Li An declined Sang Ping's invitation and asked Xiao to have a good rest today.

"You should also think about the music, and we'll discuss it tomorrow."

"Okay! Goodbye, teacher. Thank you, Teacher Zheng! Goodbye, Teacher Zheng!"

"Thank you, take a good rest."

"Teacher Zheng, please come over for dinner some other day when you are free."

"Of course, of course. Come on in, Dingzi. Goodbye, Madam Boss."

"Let's go."

The people here waved goodbye through the car door, and Lao Che hurried out of the door. Then he saw the car driving away.

Lao Che groaned in his heart and said, "Just sit for a while."

"We're back." The old car came forward.

Xiaoche: “I’m back.”

Lao Che already knew what happened last night. When he saw the mother and daughter together, he felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.

But no matter what, the stone pressing on his heart finally disappeared.

"Come, go home."

After taking the luggage from his wife and children, Lao Che led the family happily towards the store door.

Nail: "Master, you are closed tonight?"

Sang Ping: "Closed tonight."

Nail: “Okay!”

Xiaoche: "I want sweet and sour pork!"

Nail: "I'll do it for you."

Xiaoche: "I don't!"

Back to the car, after Sang Pingdingzi got off, Haitao asked Li An what was going on.

"Don't be impatient yet."

Li An knew what Haitao wanted to ask. Lao Tang also called him this morning. He knew that everyone in the fan group was waiting for an explanation. "I'll tell you slowly when I get back to the store."

Haitao: "Brother, are you okay?"

Ang Lee has a lot of things to deal with now.

He had to first tell Boss X that Tang Qianfeng had invited Xiaoche to hold a concert.

Yuan Xiaoyu had already heard him mention it in the car, and he would probably have known it by this afternoon.

"Hey, Brother Yan."

Li An called Boss X and told him the whole story.

Haitao, who was listening nearby, kept blinking his eyes. Was this a blessing in disguise for Linlin?
Boss X on the other end of the phone had also been thinking about this for the whole afternoon, "He didn't say anything else?"

Li An: "No, I didn't ask much. Linlin was there at the time, so I said I would call him when I got back."

Boss X listened for a moment and said, "I'm afraid there's something else going on here."

Boss X knows better than Ang Lee what kind of people the Tang father and son are. He must have asked Ang Lee for help in giving Che Lin a special show.

Li An smiled into the phone: "If there's anything, I'll just wait. Why would a barefoot person be afraid of someone wearing shoes worrying about him?"

Boss X laughed: "You think it through."

Li An: "Well, whether you understand or not, let Linlin hold the concert first, and we can talk about it later. Hey, Brother Yan, is there any conflict between Zhao Weilin and his family?"

Boss X: "As far as I know, there shouldn't be any."

Li An: "Then I don't want to think about it anymore. I'm still wondering if it's because of the result of yesterday's game."

Boss X: "No, even if there is any conflict between them, they won't support Linlin so hard. Let's leave it like this for now. An hour of music is not short. Does he have any requirements? Has he given a theme?"

Ang Lee: "There was nothing. He asked me to make a list of songs. I am worried about this now."

Boss X: "You really need to think about it carefully. This concert is held during the June season of the Grand Theater. Although he didn't say anything, I'm afraid he won't be satisfied if you don't come up with a comprehensive repertoire list. Old Tang is quite demanding in this regard. I guess he didn't say anything because he wanted to see your level.

Li An: "I feel more stressed after hearing what you said."

Boss X: "Lee Ang, I think this is what the old man meant."

Li An: "How to say."

Boss X: "I feel like this is not Old Tang's style. Anyway, you should think about it carefully. If it takes an hour, um—"

"Barcarolle, about five minutes."

Ang Lee: "I was still thinking about this song on the plane. This year is also Tchaikovsky's year."

Boss X: “That’s what I mean. The melody is beautiful and the work has texture.”

Li An: "Will it be difficult?"

Boss X: "You have to give your child some easy repertoire to practice. You have to consider the time of the concert."

Li An: "Okay, let's decide on this one, as well as Chopin's Fantasy Impromptu in C-sharp Minor. I also plan to ask her to give her the score tomorrow."

Boss X: "This one is also good, it suits her. Let's play a set of Schumann's sketches."

Ang Lee: "A work based on childhood scenes."

Boss X: "Yes, if you choose three songs, it will be a set of songs."

Li An: "That's about fifteen minutes."

Boss X: "The sketches are almost there for now. You should decide on the major works. If there is no concerto, at least a set of sonatas should be prepared. The F minor key she played in the competition is not quite appropriate."

Ang Lee: "Yes, I was thinking about that too. Actually, I want her to play a set of Mozart this time."

Boss X: "Then choose from the Paris Sonata series, 310?"

Ang Lee: "Actually, I was thinking of the B flat major. What do you think? She played it."

Boss X: "333 OK, that's true, then you can decide, don't choose Beethoven for the sonata."

Li An: "It's almost another 333 minutes, minutes, will be put in the second half."

Boss X: "We have to arrange a big piece of music in the first half. We can't have all skits in the first half."

Ang Lee: "Yes, I'll think about it again. If I choose again, I can't choose a sonata from the classical period."

Boss X: "Please think again about the romantic works, but don't touch Liszt."

Ang Lee: "I see. We need a main theme song at the end."

Boss X: "No, I have a good version of My Motherland. I'll send it to you later."

Li An: "Thank you, Brother Yan."

Boss X: "You're welcome. How's the kid doing?"

Li An: "That's good. I let her go home today."

Boss X sighed, "I think we should let the kids have a good rest for a while."

Li An sighed, "There's nothing I can do. Brother Yan, there's something I haven't told you yet. Hou Zhentao called me first this morning."

Haitao: Hou Zhentao? This name sounds so familiar.

Boss X: “No way.”

Li An: "Yes, I really didn't expect it. You said that the game has been over for a long time. To be honest, I almost forgot about it. Mr. Xie still misses me."

Boss X: "Mr. Xie is well-known in the circle for not owing favors to anyone. He must be unable to let go of this matter. It seems that he also watched yesterday's game."

Ang Lee: "I guess so, but Hou Zhentao didn't mention it on the phone. But there is a conflict in the show. Linlin has a performance on June 1st."

Haitao: Oh my god, this, this, this.
Boss X: “You refused?”

Li An: "No, the old man is so kind and I can't just reject him. I said I'll discuss it with the child's parents."

Boss X: "Then just tell Fang Yongbo, it's not a big deal."

Li An: "I was just thinking about it. Actually, Linlin is just playing the accompaniment for my stage play."

Boss X: "Why didn't you just agree this morning?" Li An: "The key is Linlin. You said that a group of friends have already agreed to it. They have reviewed the program and rehearsed. Now it's all set. Several children are looking forward to going on stage together on June 1st. If I don't let her participate, she will definitely feel bad."

Boss X: "That's right, you can handle this matter yourself. You don't have to worry too much about Mr. Xie. I'm sure he will understand if you explain the situation to him."

Li An: "I'll think about it. I'll go there again in a while and visit Mr. Xie then."

Boss X: "Come here on May Day?"

Li An: "I definitely won't have time on May Day, maybe after May Day."

Boss X: "Okay, let me know when you have set a date."

Li An: "Well, Brother Yan, you are busy. If you have anything to say, we can talk on WeChat."

After hanging up the phone with Boss X, Li Ang let out a sigh.

Haitao had been holding it in for most of the time, and finally waited until this moment, "What's going on, brother? Linlin is about to take off!"

Ang Lee laughed: "It's just the opening of a solo recital, nothing special."

Hai Tao: "You are going too far. What else do you want to have a solo concert in the Grand Theater? And there is a schedule conflict. What's going on?"

After listening to Li Ang's explanation, Haitao suddenly understood.

Hai Tao: "This can be considered as a kind of compensation."

Li An: "Alas, whether to make amends or not, it's all in the past. You've heard the problem, there's a conflict in time."

"Go in at the gas station ahead."

Haitao: “What?”

Li An: "Hurry up."

Haitao: "Brother, stop making trouble."

Li An: "Listen to me, or I won't ask you to send me off next time."

Hai Tao's mouth twisted, "Who are you trying to scare?"

Then he stepped on the accelerator and drove past the gas station on the side of the road.

Ang Lee had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay."

After passing the intersection, the car drove into Tianhu Avenue. Seeing that there was less than three minutes left, Haitao stopped the car on the side of the road.

"What's wrong?" Li An asked.

Haitao: "Have a cigarette."

Li An: “What’s going on?”

Haitao: "It's okay."

Li An: "We're almost at the store. You're smoking here. Are you having a conflict with Zhang Miao?"

Haitao: "No, just one."

Li An: "Then get out of the car and smoke. Don't smoke in your dad's car."

The two got out of the car and smoked a cigarette, and Haitao told Li An about the grand scene in the live broadcast room last night.

After learning about the car's final ranking, the live broadcast room instantly turned into a battlefield, with everyone cursing the shady dealings.

"Luckily, Brother Tang has been calming everyone down. We were really worried that someone would go to the official website of the competition to complain. Please don't cause you any more trouble."

Li An: "Let's talk about this later when we get back. I don't really care. The main thing is the teacher."

Haitao: "What did the teacher say?"

Li An: "The teacher told me to just comfort Linlin. There is nothing the teacher can do about this. Once the rankings are announced, it will be useless for anyone to come."

Haitao: "Brother, please tell me first, what exactly did the judges hold in the final meeting yesterday?"

Li An: "Linlin scored six perfect scores, only 0.03 points behind He Jiaming. Zhao Weilin felt that this was controversial, so he organized a meeting of the judges, saying that he wanted to get one more spot. However, Alex, the director of our competition area, disagreed. Without his consent, a vote was held, and the 21 judges voted for Linlin and He Jiaming. The one with the most votes advanced. In the end, Linlin lost by one vote."

Haitao sighed that Zhao Weilin was at least okay this time. Although everyone in the circle scolded Zhao Weilin, he did a really bad job. "It's a pity for Linlin and Alex. What's wrong with giving them one more spot?"

Li An shook his head. That was not the case at all. How could Alex give an extra ticket when there were so many competition zones and groups?

Deep down, Li An didn't believe Zhao Weilin was sincere. "Let's go, go to the store and get one, and then I'll go home."

The two got in the car again, and five minutes later the car stopped at the entrance of Sigang. Li An got out first.

Haitao hesitated for a moment and still didn't tell Li An about Lao Tang and Mu Xin, because he promised Lao Tang and Mu Xin to keep it a secret for the time being.

Before Li An entered the door, Lao Tang heard the sound of a car at the door and stood up to greet him.

Xu Li and Xiao Yun also came over from the front desk.

"Where's Mu Xin?"

"coming!"

As he spoke, Mu Xin walked up to the first floor.

Looking around, everyone is there.

Facing the expectant gazes, Ang Lee waved his hand and everyone came to the meeting room.

ten minutes later.

"That's how it is. We won't talk about it anymore. Linlin can focus on preparing for the concert. I plan to arrange for her to give an online recital to everyone in the live studio as a way to give back to everyone's support."

Xu Li: "We discussed this as well. Let's set a date and publicize it in advance."

Li An: "Let's do it on the first Saturday after May Day. Give her some time to prepare."

Lao Tang: "Let her rest for a while."

Mu Xin: “Yes.”

Xu Li: "One more thing, many fans and parents have asked about our summer camp."

Li An: "Haitao told me that it would have to be Xiaohu, and he gave us the exposure in advance. That's great, then come on, anyone who wants to participate will be welcome, and we'll make it a big one this time."

Xu Li: "Then I will go to the venue in the next two days to check out the specific summer camp plan."

Li An: "Mu Xin."

Mu Xin: “Here.”

Li An: "You have planned similar activities before, right? I'll leave this to you. The theme is the Classical Period, which includes master classes, teacher-student concerts, courses, game activities, and a two-day tour of Chengdu. Please draft a framework based on these five main contents, and then we will discuss and fill in the gaps next week."

Mu Xin: “Received.”

Li An looked at Xu Li and said, "The general plan can be finalized before May 1st. I still need to discuss the details with Chen Yanqiu. Let's start preparing now."

Xu Li nodded.

Li An: "I estimate that the number of students participating in the summer camp will not be less than 100."

Lao Tang: "We will be very busy then."

Haitao: "I made a lot of money this time."

Li An smiled bitterly: "To be honest, I will be very lucky if we can break even after organizing this event. I can't even think about making money."

"Hold on."

Just then, Li An's cell phone rang again.

Hou Zhentao again?
After thinking for a while, Li An answered the phone.

In the next two minutes, everyone saw Li An's expression change again and again.

"Bach Piano Concerto in D minor."

"1052."

"1052 yes."

"September 6th."

Li Ang seemed to be talking on the phone, or talking to himself.

After a moment, he nodded and said, "No problem, Brother Hou. I will definitely let her prepare well."

No matter how much I thank you, it won’t change what will happen to my car in the next six months. I’ll just have to wait for it to get ruined.

Bach's concerto is really
Fortunately, there is still plenty of time.

"Thank you, Brother Hou, and thank you, Mr. Xie."

At this moment, Li An felt that the Xinhai Cup was the most valuable competition he had ever participated in his life.

An accident on the field is exchanged for an opportunity for the car to perform on the opening ceremony of the 4th Music Season of the National Symphony Orchestra.

Worth it.

It’s so damn worth it.

Why don’t he participate in this year’s Xinhai Cup again?

Ha ha.
