Chapter 185 Won the Gold Award, "Lark" became famous

After the average score of Lu Xianger's "The Skylark" came out, the seven judges in charge of scoring also had different expressions.

Especially the staid British judge, after seeing the score of 95.16, his expression was the strangest.

Because he scored 80 points, if this score is true, then the average must be very low.

There is only one possibility for the score of 95.16, that is, his score of 80 is the lowest score and has been removed.

In the auditorium, Lu's mother repeatedly confirmed that the score of 95.16 was correct, and then a bright smile appeared on her face, her mouth almost grinning behind her ears.

"Xiao Xiang's score is so high, Mrs. Chen..."

Lu's mother turned to look at Chen's mother, wanting to celebrate with her, but seeing Chen's uncertain expression, she quickly restrained her smile.

The score of one's own daughter surpassed the score of the opponent's son, and the atmosphere was very subtle.

Mother Chen is indeed well-mannered. After changing her expression a few times, she smiled and stretched out her hand to Mother Lu: "Congratulations, Mrs. Lu, Ling Qianjin is really talented."

Mother Lu hurriedly shook hands with her, and said modestly, "Good luck, it's just luck."

Mother Chen kept smiling and asked, "Where did the piece that Ling Qianjin played come from?"

"This one……"

Lu's mother asked her daughter this question before, so she said her daughter's answer intact: "Xiao Xiang said that a friend wrote it for her, and it was specially used for the competition."

Chen's mother maintained an elegant smile and said, "Ling Qianjin's friend is indeed talented and admirable."

"I don't know what kind of friend she is. I think it should be a teacher or professor at the school." Lu's mother subconsciously thought so.

Chen's mother knew who wrote the song, but she didn't know how to explain it. After finishing the courtesy, she sat upright in her seat and waited for the end of the competition.

There was nothing special about the games of the next four players, with an average score of around 90 points.

After all the contestants finished their performances, the host announced that Lu Xianger won the gold medal of the 57th Paganini International Violin Competition with the highest score in this competition.

The backstage of the Grand Theater.

After hearing the organizer's announcement of the results, Lu Xianger jumped up excitedly, hugged Fang Xing's neck, shouted and jumped up and down:
"We won, did we really win?"

Fang Xing was relatively calm, and replied: "Yes, I won, the gold medal."

The teachers and classmates of Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra gathered around to congratulate: "Congratulations, junior, for winning the gold medal."

Lu Xiang'er noticed that everyone was gathering around her, her ears turned red, she quickly woke up from letting go, hid her hands behind her back, and said coyly: "Thank you, everyone. Without your accompaniment, I would not have achieved this result. Thank you everyone..."

After waiting in the background for half an hour, the organizers began to arrange for the awards.

The host invites the three players with the highest scores to return to the stage.

The three players are Lu Xianger, Patrick Petter, and Chen Wenhan.

The host invited Lu Xianger to stand in the middle, and then the other two stood on both sides.

Miss etiquette came to the stage holding a crystal trophy in the shape of a violin. The first prize trophy was rimmed with gold, which was very beautiful.

The person in charge of the organizer of the Paganini International Violin Competition came to the stage and awarded the gold medal to Lu Xianger.

Subsequently, Patrick Pate won the second prize and Chen Wenhan won the third prize.

In addition to trophies, there are bonuses.

The first prize is 25000 Euros, the second prize is 10000 Euros, and the third prize is 5000 Euros.

After the competition, the organizer arranged for the award-winning contestants to go to the reception room of the Grand Theater to be interviewed by the media.

When being interviewed by the media, Lu Xianger's answer was a little confused the whole time.

Because I was not ready to win the championship at the beginning, I didn't have time to think about how to deal with media interviews.

Coupled with a slight language barrier, although Lu Xianger could understand most of the questions, she still stumbled when answering.

A British reporter asked: "Miss Lu Xianger, the violin piece you used for this competition is called "The Skylark". According to the information found on the World Music Copyright website, this violin piece was only registered a month ago.

"The author's signature of this violin piece is 'Zhuang Zhou'. Who is this composer? What is his relationship with you? Is he at the scene?"

Lu Xiang'er hadn't looked at the registration information about "The Skylark" on the website before, but at this time when she heard the reporter's question, she knew that the registration information of "The Skylark" was signed by "Zhuang Zhou".

She froze for a moment, and turned her head involuntarily to look in the direction of the backstage.

Fang Xing stood at the entrance of the stage, smiling and giving her a thumbs up.

Lu Xiang'er finished answering the media's interview in a daze, her mind was not on the interview at all.

After the media interview.

The major media began to publish the results of the Paganini International Violin Competition.

Front page headline, headline:
[The Chinese violinist won the Paganini Gold Award with a song "The Skylark". 】

[The violin piece "Skylark" conquered the Paganini judges with its unique piano sound. 】

[A violin piece that turned out to be out of nowhere, who is the composer "Zhuang Zhou"? 】

With the end of the Paganini International Violin Competition, the organizer released the video of the competition.

"The Skylark" immediately caused an uproar in the violin circle.

Countless listeners came to listen to the "tweeting" of "Skylark", all attracted by the unique sound of this piece.

Of course, due to the limitations of violin music itself, the degree of dissemination will not reach the general public.

Anyway, violin music is actually a relatively high-level music, and the general public rarely listens to this kind of pure music.

However, "The Lark" became so famous in the violin world that even other instruments began to try to play this piece.

However, the violin has a unique range and timbre, and even if other instruments are played according to the score, they cannot play the song of "skylark".

Therefore, even if this piece is changed to the score of other instruments, it will not show the real "skylark".

……

After the media interview, Lu Xianger returned to the backstage and saw her mother coming up to her, with tears in her eyes, she held her mother with open arms, and said like a child: "Mom, I won the gold medal."

"Good boy, awesome!" Mother Lu praised her daughter vigorously.

the other side.

Mother Chen also came to pick up her son Chen Wenhan.

However, the expressions of the mother and son were more subtle.

Chen Wenhan's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he glanced at Lu Xiang'er, mother and daughter who were hugging each other on the other side, feeling very complicated.

Chen's mother praised: "I won the award, it's great."

In fact.

Being able to win the third prize at the Paganini International Violin Competition already shows that the violin is of a very high level.

Chen Wenhan's current mood is very complicated.

If it was Patrick Pater who won the gold medal, Chen Wenhan would not feel so uncomfortable.

It happened that Lu Xiang'er won the gold medal. In his eyes, he was inferior to his undergraduate students.

In his cognition, he was defeated by a weak scum, and this weak scum won Paganini's gold medal with "The Skylark" he wanted.

If the family could help him buy "The Skylark", the result would definitely not be what it is now.

Therefore, Chen Wenhan was not reconciled, and at the same time envied that Lu Xianger could get such a handed down work as "The Skylark".

……

After "The Skylark" became popular abroad, it spread back to China.

Domestic media reports are even more exaggerated.

[A 20-year-old female violinist has won glory for her country, and won the highest honor for the violin with her song "The Skylark". 】

[Another outstanding student from Donghai Conservatory of Music won the gold medal in the Paganini International Violin Competition during the school. 】

Among the many news headlines, occasionally one or two headlines also brought Chen Wenhan.

[Donghai Conservatory of Music, two yolk eggs, two current students, won the first and third prizes of Paganini. 】

In addition, there is news focused on the violin piece "The Skylark".

[Who wrote "The Skylark"?Could it be the flowers blooming inside the wall and the fragrance outside the wall again? 】

[Who is Zhuang Zhou, the author of "The Skylark"? 】

Although some media are collecting information about the author of "The Skylark", few people in China discuss the name "Zhuang Zhou".

Because domestic netizens know it is a pen name at a glance, and the name comes from Zhuang Zhou Mengdie.

Even the foreign media will think that this is the name of a certain composer.

……

After returning to the East China Sea, Lu Xianger used the 25000 Euro bonus to pay for the performance of the Dongyin No. [-] Symphony Orchestra.

Although Fang Xing promised to sponsor the trip to Genoa at the beginning, since he had already won the first prize, Lu Xianger naturally gave priority to using this bonus to pay for the performance of the symphony orchestra.

Because of this Dongyin First Symphony Orchestra, more than 100 people went to Genoa.

The round-trip air ticket alone is more than 10,000, so this bonus is just enough to cover the cost of this performance. After paying the funds, there is nothing left.

Lu Xianger was not disappointed because the bonus was spent, but was even happier.

My own bonus is used to fill in the expenses of the orchestra, and I am self-sufficient, so there is nothing wrong with it.

That night.

Lu's mother arranged a table of dishes at home and invited relatives and friends to celebrate her daughter's winning the Paganini Gold Award.

She held her daughter's trophy and showed it in front of relatives and friends, not to mention how happy she was.

while eating.

Lu's mother asked her daughter: "Xiao Xiang, where is your friend who is a composer? Why don't you invite us to celebrate together? Without his "Skylark", it would be very difficult for you to win the championship.

"Is his name really 'Zhuang Zhou'? Isn't that his real name? Is it convenient for Fang to come here? Mom wants to thank him face to face and give him a big red envelope."

Lu Xianger asked shyly, "Now?"

"That's right, if he's free, he can come here now. How nice to celebrate together while everyone is here." Mother Lu urged.

"Is this too abrupt? Isn't it good?" Lu Xiang'er felt that it was inappropriate to meet her parents now.

Generally speaking, a formal banquet with guests needs to be notified in advance, at least three to five days in advance.

Only when old friends form a bureau will they make a temporary call.

Now to invite the composer of "The Skylark" to a banquet, of course it would be better to be more formal.

Lu's mother nodded and said: "That's right, then next time you have a chance, you can formally invite him. If you are free, just ask him when he is free."

"Eh..." Lu Xiang'er agreed with a strange expression.
