When Zhou Kangsheng saw a handsome and beautiful black-haired young man on the stage, he was stunned, and he didn't come back to his senses. After listening to the other party politely reporting his name and department, Zhou Kangsheng slapped his thigh: "Yes! This is Qi Mu!"

Before Zhou Kangsheng came to the National Conservatory of Music in Paris, the director of the French branch of the "Hall of Music" told him that the headquarters thought that a person named Qi Mu might appear in this evaluation, so Zhou Kangsheng should pay more attention. When it appears, it is necessary to take photos and write articles more carefully.

It has been three years since Zhou Kangsheng came to France, and he doesn't know much about domestic news. It is also the first time he has seen this young man named "Qi Mu". Thinking of the director's words, Zhou Kangsheng couldn't help but focus his attention and began to stare at the brightly lit stage seriously without blinking an eye.

"I'm going to perform Paganini's "The Bell"... It's a bit difficult, I wonder how this Qi Mu... will perform?"

After silently taking two photos with the DSLR, Zhou Kangsheng put down the DSLR in his hand, intending to listen carefully to the young man's performance. Even if the performance is not good, he has to be patient and listen to it. Who made the headquarters place so much importance on this Qi Mu

However, when the long bow just touched the strings, Zhou Kangsheng was stunned in place.

"The Bells" is one of Paganini's representative compositions. The violin devil master has a pair of magical hands. According to rumors, his left hand can be turned up to an unbelievable arc, which has also caused He frantically hits the strings in a wide range.

The beginning of this well-known "The Bells" is a short and intense staccato, very characteristic of Paganini. Zhou Kangsheng has been in the classical music industry for six years, and he has also listened to the performance of "The Bell" three times, but... He has never heard anyone who can grasp the accuracy of the bow jump to such an astounding level!

Once the bow jumps on the strings, it is easy to produce some noise. For amateurs who are not skilled enough, once the bow bounces, it means slippage and even noise. For professional violinists, they can only try to reduce the noise to a minimum.

At this time, the whole concert hall was reverberating with a brisk and warm rhythm of imitation bells. Every time the bow beat on the strings, it seemed like a small bronze bell was beating gently. The young man's slender left hand kept sliding on the strings, with great amplitude, but very relaxed.

And his right hand controls the bow very well, so that every jumping bow is stabilized in the fastest time, reducing tremor, so the noise is also reduced to a minimum!

In the light-gold music hall, everyone held their breath and listened to the ardent "The Bell" in a daze. The sound of the piano was like a small stream passing through the mountains and forests, hitting the gravel and broken trees, causing an ethereal echo.

And when the chord in the second half of the song progressed, the young man's white fingers slid greatly on the strings, stretching from the front octave to the very end of the black fretboard. At the same time, clusters of qin sounds like small streams are gradually connected together, slowly forming small rivers, small rivers... big rivers, big rivers.

When the chords of the whole piece reached the final climax, the melody that sounded again was like a rushing wave, surging. If Lanster's "Dante After Reading" was a rush of rivers, now this song "The Bell" seems to have a soul, with a deep will like the ocean.

The difference is never the tune, but the person who plays it.

Liszt and Paganini are both representatives of the dazzling school, but as students who played the two masters respectively, it is obvious that anyone can find out... The black-haired Chinese youth in front of him is really better than the previous performance. The better is better!

The song is completely over.

Zhou Kangsheng stared blankly at the young man standing under the spotlight, his lips twitched, and he hadn't recovered from the exciting music just now. The next second, when he heard a low "Bravo" sound, he subconsciously looked at the place where the sound was made. This look...

Zhou Kangsheng is even more stupid!

It turned out that Min Chen took the initiative to stand up and gave the student a "Bravo"? !

Reflexively, Zhou Kangsheng picked up the DSLR and took a photo. The angle he stood at was very unique. He could not only photograph Min Chen's left side, but also fully frame the smiling young man on the stage.

After the photo was taken, Zhou Kangsheng applauded stunnedly, and said in a low voice, "Is this really... the strength a student should have? Shouldn't this Qi Mu become... the next Min Chen?!"

On the stage, Qi Mu had just finished playing a difficult tune, and there was a little sweat on his forehead.

When Min Chen shouted the first "Bravo", the roaring applause from the audience echoed in the concert hall, which was as shocking as the mountains and seas.

After Qi Mu bowed politely, he began to wait for the judges' ratings and comments. Almost 9 points, or even 10 points, countless praises were spit out from the mouths of these judges, as if the judges who criticized some students who were not motivated just now didn't exist at all.

When the grading came to Master Lyonte, he looked at Qi Mu solemnly and said, "Your "The Bell" made me feel like I went back more than ten years ago, at that time... Someone played Liszt's arrangement on Shaw Sai "The Bell", got the only full score in the audience."

Qi Mu was slightly startled, then subconsciously looked at the man sitting beside Leonte.

Lyont didn't directly say the name "Min Chen", but many audience members were already talking in a low voice: "I didn't expect Lyont to give this student such a high rating", "It turned out that he was the same as Bert back then. Lyme is on a par", "Lyonte's judgment has always been accurate"...

Lyonte looked at the gentle and humble young man on stage, and finally sighed helplessly and said, "Your 'The Bell' is indeed the best I've heard in the past ten years, so I'll give you... 10 points. "

Although Qi Mu had already scored two full points before, when Master Leonte said the phrase "10 points", many spectators off the court were still amazed.

Unexpectedly, after this, Bella Keim also gave a high score of 9 with a smile, and said frankly: "You can get 10 points for the sound of the piano, but the "bell" you understand is not the same as what I understand. Not the same, so... I can only give you a 9 apologetically".

Just after the nine judges gave the scores, Qi Mu's total score has reached a high score of 85! This means that as long as Min Chen gives a score higher than 5 points, the young man will surpass Lanster and get the first high score of 90 points or more!

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on the man sitting in the center of the jury's seat. They all remembered... After the performance of the young people on the stage, this man was the first to stand up and applaud.

so…

"Your 'The Bell' is excellent. Your skills in portamento, staccato and chords are very skilled and concise, and you have a unique understanding of music." In the main judge's seat, the stern and noble man's thin lips curled slightly and whispered. : "Very good, um... 9.5 points."

When the score of "9.5 points" appeared, many audience members were in an uproar, but Qi Mu on the stage was relieved. After he walked off the stage with a smile, many students congratulated him with a high score of 94.5, and the students of the violin department cheered and asked Qi Mu to treat him.

"My God, Seven, that's 9.5 points given by Mr. Bertram! This is different! You are 0.5 points higher than Lanster!"

"That's right, Seven, you must have a treat today. But that's a pity... You're close to getting 95 points, if only Mr. Bertram could give you an extra 0.5..."

Seeing the cheers of these violin students, Qi Mu suddenly felt... as if the people who came on stage just now were actually not him, but them, right

However, they were so happy for themselves, and Qi Mu was also very moved. Of course, he didn't want to get 10 points from Min Chen as Ange said.

When he heard Min Chen's evaluation of himself on the stage just now, Qi Mu kept winking at the other party, hoping that the other party would not give himself too outrageous points for the sake of friendship.

He believes that his "The Bell" still has some room for improvement, and has not reached the most perfect state.

What Qi Mu didn't know was that a certain man was sighing at the "low score" he gave him on the judges' table.

When he was grading, Qi Mu kept winking at Min Chen, and Min Chen naturally understood. Qi Mu was worried about himself... Because of knowing each other, he specially gave him extra points. But only Min Chen knew that because he needed to avoid suspicion, he deliberately lowered the perfect score he originally thought...to 9.5 points.

"Auston, I didn't expect you to give a score of 9.5. This score is really high. I thought you would not give a score of more than 9." Mr. Lyonte said with emotion, "However, I didn't expect you A student who is casual, has such a high level... Auston, you are really very discerning."

Bella on the side said with a smile: "Lionte, do you really think... Auston ordered it casually?"

Lyonte asked in surprise: "Isn't it?!"

Bella gave a low laugh and said nothing.

Leonte turned his head to look at Min Chen again, only to see the latter narrowed his eyes calmly, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Will you write a music review?"

Lyonte: "… "

"Um?"

"...Write..." After a while, Leonte said again: "But Auston, you have to tell me first if you know that Huaxia student?"

A smile flashed in Min Chen's dark pupils, and he asked noncommittally, "Guess what?"

Lyonte: "… "

Guess what!

You Huaxia people are teaming up to bully people!

It's so bullying! ! !
