Chapter 253: Even on Vacation, Don’t Forget to Explain the Competition Rules in Detail (4K)

Dining area on the first floor.

When Lin Tian changed his clothes and came here, He Zhichen and Wei Xiaoxiao were already kneeling at a table eating.

Lin Tian was slightly stunned when he saw Wei Xiaoxiao.

--strangeness.

Wei Xiaoxiao put on her yukata and tied her hair up.

In the corner of his eye, he placed a mole of tears schemingly.

Young woman feeling.

When you sit on your knees on the ground, it feels more Japanese-style.

To be honest, Lin Tian noticed Wei Xiaoxiao's face for the first time after having been in contact with Wei Xiaoxiao for several days.

How to say

Probably because he spent every day with top beauties like Gan Yanyu, Lin Tian's threshold was stretched.

Nowadays, Lin Tian is prone to face blindness when looking at any woman.

If Wei Xiaoxiao hadn't changed her clothes, Lin Tian wouldn't have noticed. This female singer in her early twenties was actually quite beautiful.

After all, he is a popular celebrity, and his face is too important. It is completely incomparable to that of a musician.

This is one of the reasons why Gan Yanyu, as a cellist, was able to easily attract a large audience at an early stage.

Just like.

He also plays Go and wants to be popular.

Warhawks just need to look good.

If Yu Lijun wants to get out of the industry, she often needs to go through a lot of work and abstraction.

This is the difference caused by the difference in appearance.

"."

"Where's Teacher Gan Yanyu?"

After sitting down, He Zhichen asked.

"Still changing clothes."

Lin Tian said, picked up the chopsticks, picked up the sushi on the table, and put it into his mouth.

Sweet and delicious.

Although it is a buffet, it is surprisingly good?

It is indeed a hot spring hotel that costs 9,000 yuan per person.

I can’t tell you what’s so delicious about it, but it just feels a lot better than the sushi in China.

Lin Tian felt even better when he thought that Wei Xiaoxiao could reimburse the money.

"Although I don't want to discuss work while Teacher Lin Tian is having dinner."

"However, the game schedule for the next few days has been released, including some circumstances of this game."

He Zhichen adjusted the frames of his glasses and took out the tablet computer that he never left.

This action gave him a sense of déjà vu when he put on his yukata.

"What's the specifics?" Lin Tian asked.

"This year's Sakibang International Piano Competition has invited a total of 45 contestants."

"45?!"

Wei Xiaoxiao, who was eating sushi on the side, almost spat out her rice when she heard this number.

"All the people?"

"Um."

"Teacher Lin Tian is so amazing!"

Wei Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh.

In an international competition that only invited 45 pianists, Lin Tian was able to be on the list.

Doesn't this mean that Lin Tian is already a "world-class" pianist!

Even Lin Tian himself was a little surprised when he heard this number.

You know, in the preliminary round of the Yingqin Cup that he and Gan Yanyu participated in, there were more than 1,000 people in all age groups, and even in the professional group, there were 260 players.

From 260 people to 45 people.

The difference in gold content is still very obvious.

"Because in recent years, not only the cello, but also the entire music industry has been trending toward younger players, so the contestants in this international competition are generally under the age of 40."

"Even so, Teacher Lin Tian, ​​you are still the youngest pianist in this competition."

"."

"Wait a moment."

Lin Tian couldn't help but interrupt He Zhichen.

He Zhichen talked more and more about the competition.

Lin Tian felt more and more something was wrong.

"So how the hell did I get invited?"

Lin Tian was not unconfident.

Of course he felt that he was good enough. After all, even if he put aside composition and only talked about performance, after working with a monster like Gan Yanyu for such a long time, Lin Tian's performance level was not something that ordinary people could compare to.

But here's the thing.

He himself knows that he is awesome, but others don't know or should say that they don't fully know how awesome he is.

How did Tokyo International Art Association find itself?

It's a bit far-fetched to say it's just a Yingqin Cup, right?

"Actually, I'm also curious about this."

He Zhichen also thought about it,

"The Yingqin Cup is indeed a very important cello competition in China, and it stands to reason that the HX-board classical music list is indeed of great reference value. You may be invited as a 'rising star' musician in China."

"However, your qualifications are too shallow. Not only do you have no music school background, but your resume in piano competitions is also blank. If you just topped the sales volume of Tianchao Classical Album, it is unlikely that you will be invited as an exception."

"That?"

"There is a high probability that a senior person in China who is well-spoken in the international community has recommended it to you."

He Zhichen said.

"senior?"

Lin Tian had no memory of ever knowing such a powerful musician who was internationally influential.

Is it possible?

Lin Tian thought of a figure.

impossible.

Then Lao Deng was ridiculed by him, and he wished he could have an affair with him, right?

"But that doesn't matter. Teacher Lin Tian, ​​you just need to know that if we participate in this competition, no matter what the result is, we will all make money!"

He Zhichen brought the topic back.

As long as you participate in international competitions like "Sakubon", you will gain exposure!

After all, Lin Tian's goal for this competition is very simple.

It doesn’t have to be a good ranking.

But let people remember!

"The first day, the day after tomorrow, is the official welcome party for 'Sakibuni'. It will be held at the Yokoyama Hotel, which has cooperated with the Tokyo International Art Association for many years."

"All contestants and their families will be present, where the organizers will introduce the competition procedures and precautions. It is a very relaxed communication environment. It is a good opportunity for you to meet young pianists from all over the world to expand your network."

"Of course, there are also some East Asian pianists from Japan and South Korea. Perhaps they have heard of you because of your album, and they will also want to meet you through this banquet."

"When the time comes, gather your energy and show them the appearance of the youngest musician in China!"

He Zhichen gave a thumbs up seriously - he learned this action from Lin Tian.

Lin Tian quickly asked:

“Bringing family members—does it have to be family members?”

"A broker can do it too."

Halfway through his words, He Zhichen suddenly understood what Lin Tian meant.

He said with some trepidation:

"Even if it's a girlfriend, it's a bit difficult to deal with. Sakibon International is quite strict in this regard, in order to prevent someone from sneaking in."

"Where's my fiancée?"

"OK."

"good."

The conversation between the two people made Wei Xiaoxiao on the side listen to it for a while.

"What??"

"The second day is rehearsal, held at the Tokyo International Concert Hall. There is nothing to say. I will go there with you. Starting from the third day, it is the main competition. It lasts for three days and is divided into preliminaries and finals, with only Just take a day off and just play boldly!”

Finished talking about the process of the game.

He Zhichen did not forget to give Lin Tian psychological training.

He emphasized again:

"Don't worry, Teacher Lin Tian. Although Sapphire International is the first piano competition in Asia, in fact, the nature of the performance is the first, and 'humanity and sophistication' are still a very important judging criterion."

"So, with your current qualifications, you will definitely not be able to win the trophy."

——You can’t get it for sure.

It seems that he is worried that a talented young man like Lin Tian will be angry. The more you tell him that he is not good, he insists on being so angry. He Zhichen even used the word "certainly".

After all, a musician who has created so much god-level music at such a young age.

I suddenly told people that when participating in an international competition, don’t think about the top three.

You want to say that he has no spirit, it is impossible.

Maybe, before the fight even started, I was cursing Sakubon International in my heart.

Therefore, He Zhichen did not forget to say:

"Teacher Lin Tian, ​​I fully believe that you have world-class piano ability, but first of all, this is an international competition, and your opponents are top-notch young pianists from all over the world. Secondly, as I said at the beginning, you have no qualifications. "

Seeing He Zhichen explain to himself so carefully and painstakingly over and over again.

On the contrary, Lin Tian was a little embarrassed.

"I know."

Lin Tian said.

He Zhichen really thought too much.

Lin Tian has never set his expectations very high. Until now, he is still anxious about going on stage alone and has no experience in stage solos.

If you take too big a step, you may easily pull your balls.

"It's good to know."

He Zhichen breathed a sigh of relief and said happily,

"Of course, it's not like there are no prizes to win."

"In addition to the three gold, silver and bronze awards for the top three, which you have no luck with, Teacher Lin Tian, ​​there are also some subordinate awards, which are also very important."

"There are four special awards: [Best Modern Work Interpretation Award], [Best Classical Music Award], [Audience Popularity Award], and [Best Newcomer Award]."

The latest chapter of this novel is first released, please go and read it!

"Awarded to the best player in the competition who performed the works of modern musicians, the best player who played classical music, the most popular player in the audience's vote, and the best newcomer award selected by the jury after the media voted ”

"Based on past years' data, in addition to Best Rookie, the first three awards are usually won by the top three players in gold, silver and bronze. However, there are always exceptions to everything."

"If you can pick one out of the hands of the top three, even just one! It will be unprecedented, and it will be enough to make you famous, Teacher Lin Tian!"

He Zhichen was on fire as he spoke.

Lin Tian thought for a while.

indeed.

There are only two games and two songs in total.

Everyone got the top three, the one who played the best modern music, the one who played the best classical music, and the one who was the most popular with the audience.

Aren't they just the three of them?

Otherwise, wouldn’t you be slapping yourself in the face? The chosen champion turned out not to be the best at playing the music.

It is not surprising that all these awards are awarded to the champions.

"Having said that, Teacher Lin Tian, ​​let's lower our expectations this time and contribute a game that the audience will remember. Even if it succeeds, if we can get a [Best Newcomer], it will be a great victory. ”

He Zhichen said.

"Um."

Lin Tian nodded.

All in all, just keep calm.

It is precisely because Lin Tian is a blank slate with no background and no resume.

Therefore, he always wins!

No matter what happens!

"By the way, there is also a pianist among the contestants this time. You should have met Mr. Lin Tian at the Yingqin Cup. He was the judge at the time."

He Zhichen flipped through the tablet and said,

"My name is Yao Han. I don't know if you have much interaction with Mr. Lin Tian."

That's quite an intersection.

Lin Tian still remembers that when he was confused after being scolded by Tuoba Laoden, it was Yao Han who came to him and gave him guidance.

He didn't know anything, but he could accurately determine where Lin Tian's bottleneck was.

Although he has not listened to his performance carefully, Lin Tian can be sure that this is a very powerful guy, at least in terms of piano playing skills, far surpassing himself.

"However, this is his third time participating in the Sakibon International Piano Competition, so he will not compete with you for the Best Newcomer award."

"Let's talk about it when we meet at the banquet the day after tomorrow. Then it will be clear which new pianists there are."

By the time He Zhichen finished speaking, Wei Xiaoxiao next to him was already full.

"ha--"

She yawned,

"Is this the world of musicians? It's too high-end and I can't understand it."

While the two were chatting, unknowingly, the plates on the table had formed a small tall building.

"Teacher Wei, I will tell Sister Yu if you eat so much."

He Zhichen said.

"Ah, it's rare for me to avoid her. Why did you bring a complaint to the manager?"

"."

Seeing the two arguing, Lin Tian took his heart back.

Sure enough, you shouldn't talk about work while on vacation.

After being told a lot by He Zhichen, Lin Tian had no intention of playing anymore!

Even the hot springs became boring after a while.

"Lin Tian!"

A crisp call came from behind.

Lin Tian turned around.

wrong,

Tasty!

Lin Tian's eyes widened.

She was wearing a white yukata with pale pink petals embroidered on it, rising and falling gently with the girl's gentle breathing.

The smooth and long hair falls like a waterfall, and a few naughty strands of hair stick to the cheeks, adding a bit of playfulness.

Just like the perfect woman from anime.

Such a gentle teacher Gan

At this moment, Lin Tian suddenly felt as if he had seen his real fiancée.

And in this tenderness, the girl is full of youthful vitality and playfulness.

"How about it?"

Gan Yanyu asked, holding up the hem of her light pink skirt.

——This is your yukata, what is hers?

Lin Tian looked at Gan Yanyu.

He turned his head again and looked at Wei Xiaoxiao, who was wearing the same Yukata of different colors.

He showed a slightly puzzled expression

"It's too much!"

Wei Xiaoxiao shouted, her face flushed,

"Just look at her and see what I'm doing!"

She knew that she was not as young and cute as Gan Yanyu, but why did she still show such naked comparison? !

Lin Tian turned his head back and looked at Gan Yanyu.

"nice!"

Lin Tian said seriously,

"This is my first time wearing a yukata. It suits you surprisingly well."

"Who said it was the first time?"

Gan Yanyu's expression became obviously unhappy.

"Think again."

"."

"oh!"

Lin Tian remembered, "That time when I washed my feet!"

At that time, Gan Yanyu was taken away by female master No. 7 and changed into a yukata.

"Huh? What did you say you were going to do??"

Wei Xiaoxiao showed a slightly frightened expression again.

"."

"Eat something quickly. It's time to go to the hot springs later."

Lin Tian invited Gan Yanyu to sit next to him.

On the table, there is still the sushi that I just brought over but has not yet finished.

Then, Lin Tian raised his head and asked He Zhichen.

"Where will we go for a drink later?"

"The backyard on the first floor, the VIP area, is a mixed bath. I went to see it just now, and there was no one there."

"OK."

"After you finish eating, you can go back to your room and change into your swimming trunks soon."

"."

While Lin Tian was chatting with He Zhichen, he suddenly felt an itching sensation on his arm.

He lowered his head and found that Gan Yanyu was gently poking his arm with his little finger.

"Lin Tian."

Gan Yanyu said softly,

"Come here a little bit."

"ah?"

Lin Tian lowered his head, thinking that Gan Yanyu wanted to whisper to him, so he put his head over in confusion.

As a result, Gan Yanyu suddenly stretched out his hand and opened the V-neck of his yukata.

Lin Tian was so frightened that he almost couldn't breathe, and then he managed to focus his eyes and see clearly.

Under the yukata——

Inside, is a pink swimsuit.

"I put it on in advance and can go into the water immediately."

Gan Yanyu's eyes narrowed and he said quietly,

"Does it look good?"
