Berlin, late at night.
When Min Chen and Daniel just walked out of the Bai Ai Building, the former answered a call and threw the latter on the small square in front of the Bai Ai Building. By the time this love call ended, the blond and blue-eyed orchestra manager had been blowing in the cold wind for more than half an hour, with pale cheeks, messy hair, and a pitiful look.
Seeing this, Min Chen raised his eyes in surprise: "Didn't you leave?"
Daniel, who has been waiting for more than half an hour: "My car is under warranty today. I agreed to take your car!!!"
Min Chen nodded calmly and calmly. The guy who was not afraid of the cold walked towards the parking lot with the blond man who was about to freeze into a popsicle behind him. As they walked, Daniel asked curiously, "Is it the little angel's call just now?"
Min Chen gave a soft "um".
Daniel slammed his lips and thought: "I remember it seems to be the Christmas Eve concert at the Parison Theater today, right? I wonder how the little angel performed... Well, it must be very good. Alas, there is no way to listen to the little angel. The symphony concert, I have to stay and work overtime, God, why am I so miserable!"
Daniel mourned the sky, while the handsome and elegant man raised his head and looked in the direction of Vienna without saying a word.
Daniel feels pity... Then he just feels pity.
Even on Christmas Eve, everyone in Bo Ai can take a day off, and they still have to work normally.
The night is hazy and deep, shrouding the beautiful Berlin under a charming dark sky. Accompanied by Daniel's shouting "Hahahaha, see you baby at home", a black and atmospheric Continental whizzed across the street and headed for a distant place.
Qi Mu, who is far away in Vienna, has returned to his apartment after today's concert. Today, he and Mr. Walls discussed that he did not plan to announce his upcoming departure immediately, but when Qi Mu came to the theater the next day, many members were secretly looking at him from all corners. Once he found out, Immediately averted his gaze.
Her delicate brows slightly frowned. Before Qi Mu could ask, she saw Na Li, the trumpet chief, walking over and asked nervously, "Xiao Qi... Are you leaving the orchestra?"
Hearing this, Qi Mu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Nali, where did you hear this news?"
Nali pursed her lips: "Mr. Dorensa came to the backstage of our orchestra deliberately yesterday, and you and Mr. Walls chatted with him for so long... Today, Wei Ai announced the recruitment of a new deputy chief. Seven...Are you leaving?"
As she spoke, Nali raised the magazine in her hand, and on the cover was written in large letters—
"Wei AI Deputy Chief Recruitment Begins! Recruit outstanding violin talents from all over the world. "At this point, Qi Mu finally understood why everyone in the orchestra looked at him with sad eyes today, and there was nothing to hide anymore. Originally, he and Mr. Walls planned to announce the matter next week, but now that it has reached this point, Qi Mu has told everything about it.
At the beginning, everyone in the orchestra was just guessing, at most 70% to 80% sure. However, when they heard Qi Mu's affirmation, they completely affirmed their inner views.
The more emotional members had red eyes, but they still came up one by one with a smile and gave Qi Mu a big hug, wishing him success in becoming the deputy chief of Wei Ai.
"Xiao Qi, I believe in your strength, you will definitely succeed!"
"Xiao Qi, I especially like Mr. Anthony of Wei Ai, you must break into the interior!"
"Haha Xiaoqi, you are amazing, Wei Ai! That's a dream in my heart, you can help me explore the road first, hahahaha, just kidding..."
…
Such a lively farewell lasted for a long time, until Mr. Walls came, and he was stunned when he saw this scene.
After Qi Mu explained it to him, he smiled and said: "Xiao Qi, since everyone knows it, let's take a day off today, after all, it's Christmas, and it's really tiring to have everyone rehearse a new opera together. Today we will say goodbye to Xiao Qi together!"
As soon as Mr. Walls finished speaking, the whole orchestra cheered.
On such a day, all the members of the orchestra are familiar with the way and point out various interesting places to play.
Qi Mu, who spent nearly ten years in Vienna in her last life, never imagined that there are so many interesting venues in this city. For example, the glaring Beethoven statue is the favorite place for children to hide and seek. Schumann's small garden is a gathering place for lovers.
When the whole day's play was over, everyone had a big meal and said goodbye with a smile. At this time, many emotional women finally couldn't bear it anymore. They hugged their cute mascot Xiaoqi tightly, and while sending blessings one by one, they also expressed their deep reluctance.
In response to this, Qi Mu could only smile gently: "I won't leave Vienna, I will come back often to see everyone, but I also want to listen to everyone's rehearsal of "Tosca"! Hmm... It's not because I'm not here, Nia, are you out of tune?"
Nia, who was always prone to mistakes, suddenly blushed and said, "Xiao Qi, you are too bad, you are not cute at all! How could I be out of tune? Impossible!"
Seeing Nia blushing like a cooked crab, everyone couldn't help laughing. In such a lively and joyful laughter, today's "farewell to Xiaoqi" activity all day has come to a successful conclusion.
Watching the backs of the band members go away in pairs, Qi Mu slowly put down his hand and looked far away.
"How are the preparations for the recruitment meeting in five days?" Mr. Walls took on the task of "escorting Xiaoqi home", and the two were walking to the parking lot together, "Mr. Dorensa's He has a wide range of preferences, and I really don’t know what kind of songs he will choose, but I believe that Xiao Qi, you will definitely succeed.”
"Thank you, Mr. Walls, I will definitely work hard." Qi Mu smiled and thanked, and then said: "Mr. Walls, I am very happy today, I am really very happy to be with you all this time. .It was a great time I will never forget in my life, and the Parison Theatre Orchestra is such a lovely place!"
Hearing this, Mr. Walls teased: "In that case, why don't you just leave, Xiao Qi?"
Qi Mu: "..."
"Pfft, just kidding, if you dare to give up the opportunity of deputy principal of Wei Ai to go back to the orchestra, I will join Nia and Nali to kick you out with a broom!"
All of a sudden, dozens of people in the orchestra were holding brooms, blocking him at the entrance of the Parison Theater, and Qi Mu couldn't help chuckling and begging for mercy.
This is a lovely band, and the people here are also pure and beautiful, which will make Qi Mu unforgettable for a lifetime.
Many years later, when the Pallison Theater had changed its chief conductor and many members, Qi Mu and Min Chen also came here together and listened to "The Marriage of Figaro".
Although things have changed, the music is still as delicate and gentle as usual. Qi Mu said to Min Chen with emotion: "Pareison's progress has become more and more obvious, and it is also here that I have really touched it deeply. Opera. I think the name Parrison will soon be known all over the world, for sure."
…
During the next five days of preparation, Qi Mu worked very hard and trained a few songs.
Conductor Walls said that the Master of Toronto has a wide range of preferences and does not seem to have any particular favorite musicians and pieces, so he could not give Qi Mu any more practice suggestions. But Qi Mu knew that the temperament of this gentleman was different from that of gentleness and kindness. Master Dorensa liked Beethoven the most.
Although I only got along with this master for a few months in my last life, just like Luo Yusen for six years, he didn't understand that Mr. Evra likes Bach. Some people are careful enough, and some people are careless enough.
Qi Mu found that although Mr. Dorensa would play different records when he was resting, among all the records in his collection, only Beethoven had the complete works.
Moreover, when the orchestra was taking a break, the resident pianist played a piece of "Dedicated to Alice" at random. Qi Mu curiously asked Mr. Dorensa's evaluation of this piece, but saw the latter shook his head gently. He said with a smile: "Beethoven is more suitable for resolute and violent songs. Even such a song "Dedicated to Alice" can't hide his stubborn and stubborn character. Lu, personally, I don't like this song song."
You said, who would have thought that the good-tempered master of Dorenza would like the bad-tempered Le Saint Beethoven
However, when Qi Mu was practicing several Beethoven violin concertos in the piano room on the first day, he received a call from four people before he practiced for a long time.
My teacher is arrogant and awkward and said: "Huh, Xiao Qi, are you practicing the piano?... The teacher has never heard you practice Beethoven's pieces. Do you know that you have practiced more recently?... Ah, what is the intention? No intention, ah, Just to make you practice more?… What? Dorensa likes Beethoven? Nonsense! What kind of back door do I open for my students… Cough, no, no, no, do my students need to go through the back door!!!”
Master Lance said in a gentle tone: "Xiao Qi, although Dorenza really wants to recruit you directly as deputy chief, you have to take this recruitment meeting seriously, if your performance is not good enough, Dorenza will Will give up on you directly. By the way, have you studied Beethoven's pieces? Remember to practice more, I remember that Dorensa likes him very much."
And Mr. Faller laughed and said: "Oh, Angel! I didn't expect you to be snatched by Dorensa, I'm so sad! Although I regret that you can't come to our German exchange, Angel, Doron That guy Sa is pretty good, you have to follow him well, don’t forget to practice a few Beethoven pieces, that guy likes Beethoven haha!”
After hanging up the three calls, Qi Mu's cell phone buzzed again after a while, he answered the phone in disbelief, opened his mouth and said, "Well, I know that I need to practice the piano well, and I will try my best to grasp it. In the recruitment meeting in five days, Beethoven's music is my top priority, don't worry. Finally... Bo Ai's training this morning is over?"
Min Chen, who was robbed of the topic without saying a word: "..."
After a long time, he nodded lightly and whispered: "Well, the morning rehearsal is over, and there is still an hour before the afternoon rehearsal."
Qi Mu gently put his violin back in the case, and walked to the window.
One wall of the piano room is completely designed as a floor-to-ceiling bed. When the thick window screens are pulled open, the bright and warm sunlight will shine into the room.
There are few such dazzling sunlight in winter, Qi Mu couldn't help squinting his eyes, the corners of his lips curled up, and teased: "Then you have to work hard, I heard from Daniel that you worked overtime last night until more than nine o'clock in the evening. If you don't go to bed at midnight, Santa won't put presents in your socks."
Min Chen: "..."
With a puff of laughter, Qi Mu said, "Okay, I'm not kidding you anymore. Wei Ai's recruitment will be on the 31st during the day, and I probably won't be able to go to the Bo Ai New Year's concert in the afternoon... Min Chen, It seems that I haven't heard Bai Ai's New Year's concert for two years in a row."
There was silence on the phone for a while, and the man's low and gentle voice sounded: "I'll send you the tape."
Qi Mu smiled, bent his eyes, and nodded lightly.
In the quiet piano room, only the young man's low laughter and soft whispers sounded, with infinite tenderness and longing.
…
Five days later, the deputy chief recruitment meeting of Wei Ai officially started!
