Chapter 71 Thank you for the money
"Boom, boom, boom."

At the concert, the heavy sound of drums interspersed in the music added some hope to the already sad music.

Although Cao Jian does not know how to play Western instruments such as the violin, he does have some knowledge of folk music.

Therefore, he could only play drums.

The music was beautiful and the audience was mesmerized by it.

But the first half of this music is really a bit different from "The Original Scenery of Hometown".

Suddenly, a dozen or so children slowly appeared on the stage.

"La la la la. La la la la la."

When the children's voice sang "La La La", the hairs of everyone present stood up instantly, and the music reached its climax.

If the first half of this song "Xiaoxiangzi" is considered a good piece of music.

But the children's voice part is like injecting soul into this music, showing all the joys and sorrows, happiness and anger, sorrow and happiness of all things in the world in this section.

"Absolutely awesome!"

Japanese musicians such as Sojiro in the audience immediately felt that this children's singing was the finishing touch, which directly brought the music to a new level.

However, this music seems to have a bit of Japanese music style.

Not much though.

In fact, Hu Weili had already noticed this and made some slight adjustments when arranging the music, but there are still some.

"Could it be that Cao Jian has studied Japanese music?"

Sojiro was a little confused and couldn't figure it out.

The music slowly ended with the sound of the piano.

"clap clap"

The whole audience applauded because this song was really good. It reminded many people of their deceased relatives and many people shed tears while listening to it.

Listening to a symphony live is very contagious.

"How about it?"

A friend beside Sojiro asked.

“Although the children’s vocals have greatly improved the quality of this music, it is still not enough to compare with “The Original Scenery of Hometown”.”

It’s not that Sojiro doesn’t want to admit failure, but he feels that “Hara no Seki” is better.

In the audience, Mei Yanfang, Gong Li, Wang Fei, Zhou Huimin and others heard this music for the first time.

The three people behind just thought that Cao Jian was really amazing.

But Mei Yanfang, who had more experience, heard more.

This Cao Jian, has such rich experience?
I can conclude that he is a true musical genius!

Mei Yanfang had a new understanding of Cao Jian, and she was even more curious and interested in this young man.
"Next, please enjoy 'The Original Scenery of My Hometown'."

At the host's call, Cao Jian stood next to the conductor this time, holding an ocarina in his hand.

This is his special concert, so this song is naturally indispensable.

The last time we had a charity performance, the band was just an ordinary band, but this time, it was a professional symphony orchestra.

After the beginning, Cao Jian gently played the ocarina.

This time I played it more skillfully and beautifully than last time.

Whether I've heard it before or not, I was completely immersed in the music.

Some people think of their hometown, some see the clouds in the sky, and some see the endless grassland.

Even Sojiro saw the snow in his hometown.

He had to admit that Cao Jian was very talented in music and was becoming more and more like a master.

After this piece of music, the applause was louder than the first time. Some people even stood up and applauded the young man playing the ocarina on the stage.

"Xiaoxiangzi" is too depressing, and it is more about the cycle of time.

This poem "The Original Scenery of Hometown" contains sadness, homesickness, vitality, and more.

Different moods give you different feelings when hearing.

Offstage, Gong Li also felt a little proud of his fellow villager.

Zhou Huimin looked at Cao Jian, who was like the moon surrounded by stars, and had an indescribable feeling.

Cao Jian was so dazzling just now that even such a beautiful woman like her felt a little ashamed of himself.

Not only she has it, but Wang Fei in the audience also has it
Wang Fei has been in Hong Kong for four years and has always wanted to pursue her musical dream.

She had always thought Cao Jian was very accomplished in pop music, but she hadn't expected his musical accomplishments to be much higher than she had imagined. "I must talk to him after the concert is over."

"Next, please enjoy the third piece of music, 'Seven Swords'!"

After introducing the title of the song, the conductor raised his baton, and all the violins played in unison, which looked quite spectacular.

Moreover, the music is very passionate, completely different from the style of the previous two songs.

"Dong Dong. Dong."

Suddenly, the drumstick in Cao Jian's hand fell, and the tense atmosphere was immediately reached.

“Boom…Boom…”

After more than thirty seconds, the rhythm of the drums suddenly changed, and the dozen or so spectators seemed to see a big battle breaking out.

The sound of the big drum is like the sound of a war drum, beating the hearts of the audience.

The big screen behind the stage was also playing war scenes of thousands of horses galloping, which brought a solemn and murderous atmosphere to the scene.

In the middle of the music, Cao Jian's drumstick flew on the stage, and the sound was deafening.

In the audience, they all felt their blood boiling, as if they were in a big battle, and the sound of the drums seemed to be encouraging them to keep moving forward.

"Lost."

Sojiro sighed at this point.

If "Xiaoxiangzi" is not so good, then this music is really no worse than "The Original Scenery of Hometown".

He gave in.

He really didn't expect that the young man, who was only twenty years old, could write such excellent music in just half a month.

I mainly wrote two poems at a time.

"clap clap"

This time the applause lasted longer than when the previous song ended.

Because the audience was so excited.

Even Zhou Xingchi in the audience stood up and applauded.

This Cao Jian really didn't disappoint me.

It seems that we have definitely won.

Although only three pieces of music were performed in the concert, the audience enjoyed it very much.

Now that the music is over, the main event is about to begin.

"Thanks to all the members of the orchestra, thank you to the conductor, and thank you to all the friends who came to the scene."

Cao Jian exclaimed, took the microphone from the host, thanked him, and looked at Sojiro who was sitting in his seat: "Now, please invite the other protagonist of the bet, Mr. Sojiro, to the stage."

Everyone's eyes were on the middle-aged man with braids under the spotlight.

Sojiro thought that after the concert, if he lost, he only had to hand the check to Cao Jian and that would be the end of it. He didn't expect that he would actually let him go on stage.

Just go on stage.

I am willing to admit defeat!

Under the gaze of the audience, Sojiro walked onto the stage.

He first took out a check, handed it to Cao Jian, and then said seriously: "I lost!"

"clap clap"

Zhou Xingchi, Mei Yanfang and others applauded again.

Hong Kong reporters picked up their cameras and started taking pictures.

This is the first time that Hong Kong has defeated the Japanese in music. This news must be on the headlines tomorrow.

It used to be said that the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene was supported by Japanese music, but now, we have also produced a genius.

I'll see if anyone says something like that again in the future.

The Japanese reporters who came from afar were all wilted like eggplants hit by frost.

They originally thought they could win, but now they think that this news must never appear in Japan.

It's so embarrassing to lose to a young man in his twenties.

Cao Jian on the stage, facing the camera of the reporter, was not polite at all. He directly took the check for one million Hong Kong dollars and looked at the number on it.

That’s right, one million.

Thank you for the money
