Entertainment: Is this how you play music?!

Chapter 90 "Now I have to do it myself!" (Subscribe! Beg! Kneel! Kneel!)

As a genuine Dezi.

How could Andrew not know what Li Chan was talking about?
Even because of the general environment in Europe, when Li Can finished speaking, he just broke out in a cold sweat and didn't dare to respond.

Can be biased.

Andrew felt that what Li Can said made a lot of sense.

"Haha, come on, since everyone is here, let's continue our topic."

Smile gently and retreat to advance.

Although Andrew was repeatedly at a disadvantage and lost his composure.

But it still maintains the overall calmness and elegance.

If Li Can continues to hold on, the offensive and defensive situation will be reversed quickly.

Li Can nodded and smiled slightly.

Everyone gathered around the small pavilion and continued the previous topic.

【Future World Music Center! 】

"Through historical cycles, we can see that the world's music center has shifted with the development and changes of music culture, so we need to discuss the issue from the perspective of the conditions for the development of music."

Although Tanaka Kinichi is a bit immature, he is very decisive when it comes to serious matters.

Moreover, there is logic and evidence in the words.

"The center of modern music is America, but looking at the lighthouse music today, although it is popular and excellent, it is obviously declining. It is far less comprehensive than before and is only supported by a few outlets."

"This is due to cultural issues. It is extremely difficult to develop new styles based on Western music. However, Asian music is completely different from Western music. It has more possibilities and greater development potential."

“The center of world music will return to Asia.”

It made sense, and many people frowned and nodded.

Andrew was not to be outdone.

"Europe is the birthplace of classical art and has a strong foundation. The maturity of its music business model is no less than that of America. With the development of its foundation, the world's music center will return to Europe."

This seems to make sense.

However, what Tanaka Kinichi called a return to Asia did not refer specifically to his daily life or to Xiaguo.

From a global perspective.

The two major pop music factories in the world are Lighthouse and Little Days.

Through the development of American pop music, we can conclude that the more multi-ethnic cultures are integrated, the more diverse and brilliant the music that can be produced will be.

The development of Asian pop music, especially the development of modern music, shows that the fusion of Eastern and Western art has greater potential.

The reason why Tanaka Jin decided to return to Asia is not only because he is confident in the local music of Xiao Ri Zi, but also because he identifies with the multi-ethnic culture of Xia Country.

as predicted.

As soon as Andrew finished speaking, Tanaka Kinichi immediately refuted it.

"No, if we compare the cultural heritage, Xia Country's cultural heritage is not comparable to that of the Western world. Asia has a popular model of daily life, and the cultural heritage of Xia Country radiates to the surrounding areas. It is difficult for Europe and America to compete for the future dominance alone."

“No, Asia and the West have different music systems and different underlying logics, which makes integration more difficult.”

"But this is modern times, and the fusion of Eastern and Western music is no longer so immature. On the contrary, it is very difficult to innovate on one's own."

Andrew and Tanaka Chikazu were at loggerheads.

The Russians were glamorously ignored.

But the Russians don't fight.

No matter where the world's music center is, Russians are Russians. Their unique sense of art cannot be learned and cannot be acquired. They are unique in the world.

He just watched everyone arguing with a smile.

For Yulia and her group, this topic was far less attractive than the gossip about "Winnie's boyfriend."

Li Can is indeed very attractive.

After Tanaka Kinichi and Andrew reiterated their views, they both turned their eyes to Li Can.

"Ok?"

Li Can raised his eyebrows.

It seems that I have no choice but to speak up.

After pondering carefully for a moment, Li Can smiled slightly.

"Strong countries have always had great cultural appeal. What determines the center of music is not the development of music itself, but the national strength."

“In other words, even the development of music itself is determined by a country’s national strength.”

This statement came out.

Everyone's brows furrowed.

As everyone frowned, Li Can spoke seriously.

"The earliest world music center was the Xia Kingdom during the Tang Dynasty. All foreign countries were proud to present their music to the Tang emperor. Even modern research has long revealed that the earliest exchange of Eastern and Western music was during the Tang Dynasty."

"Not only the Kucha in the Western Regions, the cherry blossoms in the East China Sea, the toast in the South, but also the Arabia in Central Asia, the India in South Asia, and even the ancient music of Europe can be glimpsed in the historical books left over from the Tang Dynasty."

Listening to Li Can's words, Tanaka Jinichi nodded repeatedly.

Xiao Ri Zi music is deeply influenced by the traditional music of Xia State.

When studying music history, left-wing literary and artistic figures such as Tanaka Kinichi never read the explanations from their own country's perspective, so they naturally know that Li Can is just stating objective reality.

Tanaka Kinichi is also interested in thinking about culture and art from the perspective of national strength.

But obviously.

These remarks were somewhat frowned upon by Andrew.

Although he knew that music was not just music, Andrew stubbornly believed that music was music.

Li Can's remarks.
It’s simply social Darwinism in the music world!
"With the Renaissance, impoverished artists from the lower classes of Europe stood up, court musicians walked out of the palace, roared against theocracy, liberated their thoughts and at the same time liberated productivity, and carried out the Industrial Revolution."

"This allowed Europe to take the lead in a very short period of time. The country's strength made its culture brilliant and attracted the attention of the world. From the late 16th century to the 19th century, the center of culture, art, and music was naturally in Europe."

"But with the rise of the Lighthouse, the rapid economic development, and the integration of multiple ethnic groups, the soil suitable for literature and art has shifted to America. The stronger the country, the stronger the literature and art. The progress of economy and technology has allowed the Lighthouse to absorb knowledge from all over the world like a whirlpool and become the center."

"All these facts illustrate one thing."

“National strength is the decisive factor in the development of culture and art.”

"The comprehensive national strength of economy, technology, and military will give rise to a strong cultural and artistic attraction. The future world center will also be the music center. It all depends on who can challenge the lighthouse and replace it."

Speaking of it.

Li Can raised his eyebrows, spread his hands, and his smile became somewhat evil.

"It's like you are a genius, I am a genius, and everyone is a genius, so who has the final say?"

"Why not just have a fight? Whoever has the stronger fist has the final say."

At this point.

Lin Feng and his group finally reacted.

He looked at Li Can with wide eyes.

This map of Yan State is a bit too long!

"Ah this."

Tanaka Jinichi and Andrew suddenly stopped.

Li Can doesn't play by the rules at all.

But when you think about it carefully, it's really like that.

Nothing is better than a fight, whoever wins is the boss.

The culture of the Tang Dynasty, the culture of Europe, and the culture of lighthouses all fit this description.

As for who will be the center of the world's future?
Everyone here is not an ordinary person who cannot see the world, so how can you not know what Li Can is talking about?
In today's world, the only country that can truly compete with Lighthouse for the right to speak in all aspects is Xia.

But, this is the trend and statement.

There's no way to argue with that.

".Mr. Li, you ruthlessly ended this topic."

Tanaka Jin'ichi's complaints immediately caused people around him to laugh.

The atmosphere also began to relax and was no longer as tense as before.

"Li, although I don't agree with your idea, I have to admit that it makes sense."

Andrew stared at Li Can with burning eyes.

"Now that we have finished talking, let's see what happens with our hands!"

Just as Li Can said.

It’s better to have a fight and whoever wins will be the one to listen to.

Andrew, who was unable to win the argument, decided to increase the intensity directly. This idea just happened to cater to the thoughts of a group of geniuses.

"Haha, I also want to see your strength."

When Varian heard that they were going to compete, he couldn't sit still. He rubbed his slender fingers gently and looked at everyone with a smile.

Hearing this, Spencer from Milan also smiled and spoke.

"Haha, yes, regarding development cooperation, let the teachers worry about these things. I just want to compete with you all."

The group was eager to try.

It was like a flame burning. That's what young people are like, they don't like to hide.

I just want to kill the other person, or be beaten to death by the other person.

“I don’t know where the students of the Royal Academy are though.”

Li Can chuckled and stood up. His 1.9-meter height made him extremely intimidating among the students.

"But let's go to the concert hall first, and then we can talk about other things when we get there!"

So, the group headed to the concert hall in a mighty procession.

Soon after, everyone arrived at the concert hall.

There is only a grand piano in the center of the concert hall's stage.

It may seem simple, but in fact, a grand piano can do so many things for everyone.

Except for the piano solo.

Whether it is vocal singing of art songs or accompaniment for instrumental performances, it is all fine.

Wait until this time.

Students from Moscow State University, National Conservatory of Music, Tokyo Academy of Arts, Milan, and Berlin gathered together.

Everyone was vaguely centered on Li Can and Andrew, so neither of them moved first.

He watched the other students compete very calmly!
The first one was vocal music, then someone played a musical instrument. Everyone was choosing the person they wanted to "communicate" with, and naturally they had to respond to the other party's "communication".

However, everyone was smart enough not to disturb Li Can and Andrew, even though they really wanted to communicate with them.

Although, it is not formal and no one will judge the winner.

But everyone has a scale in their heart.

Roughly speaking, both sides have an idea of it.

Winning and losing are even more varied.

The official "concert" has not yet started, but the private "absolute" has already begun.

just.

The more they communicated, the more solemn Andrew and Li Can's expressions became.

These universities all have their own specialties.

Dong Yi's vocal skills are very strong, obviously much better than others, but after Lin Feng stood out, he was evenly matched with the Dong Yi player.

The violins at Moscow State University are excellent, but not as good as those at Milan.

As soon as Varian made his move, his wild Russian-style piano playing made the piano professionals present break out in cold sweats. Chen Gang quickly memorized this exaggerated Russian as if he were facing a formidable enemy.

Andrew's brows were deeply knitted.

Berlin's vocals are strong.

But there is a slight gap between the Dongyi players and Lin Feng. Although it is only a slight gap, the gap is still a gap.

The violins in Berlin are very strong.

Almost on par with Moscow, but definitely not as good as Milan.

Classical guitar is very strong in Berlin.

But it's still a 50-50 match with Winnie. If you look into it in detail, she may even be slightly lacking in emotional expression.

Li Can's brows were even more furrowed.

There is not much content in the competition.

In vocal music, Lin Feng and the Dongyi contestant were evenly matched, but it was not considered a win.

The violin didn't win either, and the gap was huge.

The guitar has a slight advantage, but it's really not that noticeable.

In addition, Winnie is an international student, so considering the overall situation, that little gap is insignificant.

As for the piano, in Li Can's opinion, it might be a bit difficult.

This Varian's strength is a bit too explosive.

As for everyone else.

The works and other styles of music that each of them has prepared have not yet been released, but it is conceivable that the pressure will only be greater by then.

For an instant.

Geniuses from all over the world seem to understand why their elder teachers place so much emphasis on communication.

They tried their best to show themselves, the competition became more intense and the atmosphere of tension became stronger.

This also led to more and more chaos in the competition between them.

It even formed a closed loop where A abused B, B abused C, and C abused A.

It will be really hard to end this if it continues like this.

The slight lead that was previously enjoyed will completely lose its value, and after returning to the starting line, the pressure will only shift backwards.

This is not helpful for communication.

A clean victory is necessary.

Li Can frowned.

"No, I can't sit still anymore, I have to do it myself!"

Walk straight up and sit on the piano bench.

He hit a few notes, grabbing everyone's attention.

The hall, which was originally filled with tension, suddenly became much quieter.

Lin Feng and his group had serious expressions.

Andrew's pupils shrank slightly!
He actually chose to do it himself!

Andrew knew best how strong Li Can was at playing the piano.

It is precisely because it is clear that I am so shocked.

Almost instantly, Andrew understood Li Can's intention.

Fight for a good start and use your strength to shut everyone up!

Chen Gang was sweating profusely.

Under the current circumstances, playing a song like "The Bells" is likely to cause cheers.

But with so many geniuses present, there may not necessarily be an absolute crushing trend.

After all, the piece is new.

Even if it is extremely difficult, you can still practice it. If you can practice it, it won't be convincing enough.

Obviously, Li Can wanted to use a song that no one would be able to practice even if he played it to set the tone for the following communication!

as predicted.

Li Can's performance began.

The opening was a lightning strike.

The extremely inhumane reverse playing, with staggered fingers, wild ornaments and wave patterns were surprisingly understated.

The expressions of all the students around were frozen!

Chen Gang, Varian and other pianists stood up immediately and clenched their fists tightly.

His face was full of disbelief.

They are all outrageous reversed positions, inhuman corrections. While the index finger and little finger build the octave, the ring finger and thumb are embellishments one after the other, and the entire palm does not stay in place, but starts a high-span precise jump.

Everyone around was stunned and their expressions even became ferocious.

This piece of music, simply from a physiological point of view, has already rejected 70% of performers!

　Detailed explanation.

　　Have you watched the singer show a while ago? There are many powerful foreign singers.

　　This is the attractiveness of a country’s increasing national strength to its culture, and it is just beginning to emerge.

　　Although Jianxian has always said that domestic music is already similar, this is only a state of development.

　　If we look at the overall environment and the long term, bad money will not drive out good money. This is the historical development trend.

　　When the rabbit becomes the center of the world, it will be greatly liberated. The cultural attraction generated will be extremely strong, forcing local art to develop and change.

　　Many people don't seem to realize it.

　　The era we are currently in is the early stages of a great integration of world cultures. This span will be quite long, but what is certain is that integration is already taking place.

　　For example, in "Singer", as similar things happen more and more, it will naturally begin to optimize, which is simply called "external shocks triggering its own evolution."

　　Although Jianxian always complains about the domestic music industry environment, he remains optimistic about its overall development.

　　After all, it has only been developed for a few decades, so it is normal for some problems to arise.

　　Don't regard those idiots in China who define aesthetics, create opposition and divide as Chinese people. Many reasons are obvious. The reason they are so aggressive is because they know the future trends and are anxious.

　　It took at least four hundred years for classical music to become a human epic.

　　It took about 120 to 130 years for Western fashion to become popular all over the world.

　　China has only been around for forty years, there is no need to rush.
