pianist from the sea

Chapter 68 Confrontation (1-word chapter)

It's not just Jiang Ruijia who is wavering, but people from other countries are also wavering.

Classical music lovers in many places have watched the preliminaries of the Chopin International Piano Competition. They have a general understanding of many players, what they look like, and their level.

After all, everyone is an adult, and the level basically will not change much until the competition.

The six months in between are actually more for the Chopin Organizing Committee to conduct a rehearsal before the competition, not for the players to practice.

Everyone's understanding of other players is also known in the qualifiers a long time ago.

As a result, everyone's thoughts are completely broken now.

No one at all thought that Dongpu would actually release the performance videos of all the players.

Moreover, among the twelve contestants, more than ten contestants have obvious changes in their cognition of Chopin and their piano level.

The changes in the remaining two players are not obvious, but it can be seen that they have made a little progress.

Many people's minds were instantly confused. They originally thought that they should be able to advance to the third round at this level and go back to show off with medals and awards, but now it seems that the possibility is getting smaller and smaller.

Almost all the Japanese players have evolved. You don't know if they have hidden tricks before or if they have really improved so much.

If it's a hidden move, it's actually okay. If you work hard, you might be able to catch up.

But if it is true that he has improved so much in these two months...

The hearts of those contestants instantly became cold and cold. If those people really improved so much, then they would not have to think about things after the first round at all.

Because these Japanese players are still likely to continue to improve, maybe the top 20 players, that is, the third round players, can enter nearly ten Japanese players?

And you must know that the East Asian monster house is not only Dongying, but also Huaguo and South Korea.

In terms of South Korea, they have not won a relatively good ranking in the Chopin International Piano Competition for a long time. This year, they said that they will send all their outstanding players to study with top players, learn their skills and understanding of Chopin. It is impossible for the strength in the international piano competition to be so bad.

They are definitely improving too.

Although Huaguo is the weakest among the three countries in East Asia, you must know that in recent international piano competitions, more and more players from Huaguo have begun to show their strength, and even won other top international piano competitions. The winner of the piano competition.

It is absolutely impossible for their classical music education to be weak, and they will definitely improve during this time.

Just don't know the extent of the progress.

But looking at the situation in Japan, the progress of those people is horrifying. Huaguo and South Korea should not be far behind, right?

Then... the information obtained during the previous qualifiers, especially the information about the three countries in East Asia, may be completely invalidated!
All of a sudden, the Chopin International Piano Competition contestants from Europe and the United States, especially those who already knew that they had entered the first round, became extremely worried.

They also started to go to those top teachers to prepare for further tutoring, to see if they could improve a little in the last time.

Many of them have already gone to other places to hold concerts and rest, and some are even planning to go on vacation at sea. After all, the vast majority of them are consolidating their own level in six months. How many people can improve, so instead of Keep practicing, it is better to relax your mood.

If the string is always tight, it will definitely break, so proper rest is also necessary.

As a result, just relaxing a little bit now, the news from Dongpu came over that they might be eliminated directly, and now everyone became anxious.

As for those vacationing at sea... it's miserable.

Even the signal on the sea is very poor, and the distance from the mainland is not the distance that those sightseeing helicopters can fly back. Even if they go to the island, it is impossible for those sightseeing islands to build an airport for them.

For a while, the group of players who went on vacation could only wait for the next landing with wry smiles on their faces, and then took a car to the big city to return to their hometown for practice.

Or directly set up a piano room in a big city to practice.

For a moment, mourning was everywhere, and everyone was exhausted by the news from Dongpu.

Jiang Ruijia sat cross-legged on the stool, watching more and more bullet screens, many people were arguing about the gap between Huaguo players and Dongying players, and the whole live broadcast room became smoky, but she became more and more calm.

She rubbed the reorganized player list in her hand, looked at the names on it, and said softly.

"I originally thought that there would be 14 players from Japan, but now only 12 players from Japan have entered. The number of people from Japan is much smaller than I expected."

"However, it's still within the normal range of reason."

"This year's Chopin International Piano and the Chopin International Piano in previous years seem to have changed a little bit. This change only happened after the 14th session, that is, after 2000, and it has become more and more prominent and strange. , until this year it became extremely sharp."

"From Li Diyun in 2000, Li Diyun should be the most talented Chopin player with the strongest personal style and the strongest level. It's more of a flash of genius, depending on your own state."

"In the year 2000, his condition was extremely good, which also brought his personal style to the extreme. For various reasons, he became the most powerful champion of the Chopin International Piano Competition that year, and with an almost Roll over in a crushing way."

"But after 2000, the feeling of Chopin changed. Those top teachers taught them more and more pure Chopin, which is needed for the player's own feeling, but not so much. need."

"As each year changes, the judges pay more and more attention to Chopin's feelings, but they don't pay much attention to the performers themselves. I originally thought that the percentage should be half to half, but I didn't expect that from Dongying. Judging from the promotion ratio of side players, this feeling should be...seven to three, with Chopin being the seven and the performers themselves being the three."

"This year should be the last year, and it should also be the most critical year for those judges who want to see the players' level fully displayed."

"If this year's champion is still a pure Chopin player instead of a real pianist, then... these judges will get cold feet and will not continue to choose the player, but choose the second Chopin , and will become more extreme, wanting to find a second person who can truly represent Chopin."

Jiang Ruijia's expression became calmer, she was completely immersed in her own world, and forgot about what she was broadcasting live.

After all, what she felt from the Dongpu players was very different from what she thought, so she was extremely worried about how far Huaguo's players could go.

The mainstream direction of the Chopin International Piano Competition has changed. If you continue to follow the previous way, it will only become more and more difficult, and even the players who are clearly capable of standing at the last step will fall in the third round ahead of schedule. Even beyond the second round.

Unless their strength can crush everyone.

But here comes the problem...

Now the piano teaching methods tend to be more and more integrated, especially those players from the beautiful country, whose piano performance method is almost the fusion of the world's three major piano methods.

Austrian music school, Russian school of music, and French school of music.

The teachers of the beautiful country absorbed the characteristics of the three major schools of music, rearranged and integrated them, and constructed the beautiful country teaching method that is independent of the three major schools of music, but subordinated to the three major schools of music.

The integration of this situation has brought about the closeness of the strength of many players. In fact, the level of everyone's professional level is not much different, and the basic skills are not bad, and they can all see the past.

Even the difference between the worst basic skill and the best basic skill is within an acceptable range.

This also makes the possibility of crushing everyone purely through basic skills almost non-existent.

The players with the best basic skills, that is, the people in Fu Tiao's batch, if they simply discuss the scores of basic skills, they may be one or two points higher than the group with the lowest scores.

This one or two points can be made up in other places.

Just like...

Jiang Ruijia focused on the last item in the status column of her player list.

Chopin's feeling.

If Chopin's feeling is strong, then their level of strength can be more in line with Chopin's feeling, to make those judges and teachers score higher, to make up for the gap of one or two points, instead of being completely incapable of fighting.

Of course, if you are weak in any of the items, then you should take more rest. After all, the judges' inclinations cannot be exclusively in favor of you, they are only inclined in a certain aspect.

But so to speak.

Jiang Ruijia glanced up and nodded silently.

If those judges put Chopin's feeling first, then their aesthetic needs for music and personal expression needs will be lowered, and the requirements will no longer be as perverted as before.

Then...

Jiang Ruijia's finger moved from the top of her form, Zhao Chengzhen from South Korea, to the bottom of the list, and Fu Diao, who was very far behind, had an extremely solemn expression.

If you look at it this way, Fu Tiao's advantage will be reduced, while Zhao Chengzhen's advantage will be infinitely expanded.

Not only that, but also Kobayashi Aishi, and some players from Poland.

And those who have the ultimate beauty in music and want to express a little bit of their own ideas, their advantages will be greatly reduced.

You must know that there is not much difference between Fu Tiao's basic skills and Zhao Chengzhen's basic skills. The two represent two completely different directions.

Fu Tiao's music contains too much ego, so Jiang Ruijia sent a lot of messages to Fu Tiao, hoping that Fu Tiao can restrain the ego in his own music a little bit, and let Chopin's feelings come out.

Listening to Fu Tiao's music recently, the feeling of Chopin in Fu Tiao's music has obviously come out a lot. With a little bit of Chopin's feeling, the improvement is very great.

But even so, Fu Tiao can still be regarded as the most prominent type of player among all the music, a player oriented towards self-expression.

But Zhao Chengzhen is completely different, he follows the French school of music, his music is extremely pure and pure, if his music is not mistaken, it is actually a little bit like a teacher in school, He Shen's.

He Shen is also pure, but He Shen's purity is like a mirror, through which Chopin can see the purity of the self.

But Zhao Chengzhen's purity is blank, like a blank sheet of paper, with nothing but Chopin.

This super sense of purity, coupled with Zhao Chengzhen's technique, and Zhao Chengzhen's agility in music.

Zhao Chengzhen's score jumped up, and directly reached the top of the Chopin ranking set by Jiang Ruijia.

Of course, Jiang Ruijia is only imitating the judges' tendencies, she is not a judge of the competition, and has no authority.

But it can also be seen from this place that the horrors in South Korea and Japan are terrifying.

And Huaguo...

Jiang Ruijia became even more silent. She didn't know what to say for a while, especially when she watched the player she was originally optimistic about change from a state of endless hope to a state that might be eliminated at any time.

This is because Fu Diao has made a lot of progress. Obviously, if it is placed in the previous rounds, as long as there is no major problem with his performance, he can directly enter the final ten players, or even become the final six players.

However, who would have thought that the data obtained from Dongpu not only showed that the players on Dongpu became stronger and stronger, and the speed of improvement exceeded their imagination.

I also saw the current choice of the Chopin International Piano Competition Organizing Committee. They are leaning to the right, becoming more and more conservative, and less and less willing to accept new things.

The Chopin International Piano Competition has become one of the most powerful piano competitions in the world. Countless top players have been born in their competitions, and these players have also become the pillars of the current piano industry.

There is absolutely no need for them to take the risk of causing the competition's reputation to plummet, to choose a player who does not meet Chopin, to appear in the Chopin International Piano Competition, and to win the championship.

There is no need to take risks, plus more and more judges are leaning towards Chopin.

Fu Tiao's progress in this game may become more and more difficult.

Not only Fu Tiao, but also other players who pay more attention to self-expression, and they are the same.

If it really continues like this, Jiang Ruijia always feels that the Chopin International Piano Competition may become more and more boring. Although it can still bear the title of the strongest competition, sooner or later it will pay more attention to the players themselves and the comprehensive quality of the players. · Cliburn Race replaced.

Jiang Ruijia and many classical music lovers in Huaguo have a special feeling for the Chopin International Piano Competition. After all, you can say that it is precisely because of this competition that the door to classical music in Huaguo has been opened.

They don't want this game to end up like this.

Jiang Ruijia became extremely silent.

Jiang Ruijia's live broadcast room is still full of people arguing there.

After all, Jiang Ruijia is a relatively well-known virtual anchor in the piano area, and the people who like to watch her live broadcast are basically the group of people who are more interested in the piano.

All of them are discussing Huaguo's strengths and weaknesses in this game.

After all, Huaguo's results have not yet come out, and not many people know how many Huaguo people can enter the first round.

However, according to the ratio of Dongying, and the fact that Huaguo's players occupy the No.1 position among the players in the world, there are a total of 26 players, so many people think that Huaguo's side should be able to get a very high ratio.

"This year, Huaguo must be awesome. The players from Dongpu can occupy half of it. Why can't Huaguo's players occupy half?"

"Hehe, look at what the players from Dongpu are talking about. You see, the players from Dongpu are weak in terms of level and strength? Their level is so strong that you still think that the players from Dongpu are weak. The strength of the players on the other side is relatively average, and Huaguo can occupy half of it like Dongpu? How do you have any face?"

"I also think that Huaguo accounts for less than half, maybe only a dozen or so can enter, but Huaguo is not as weak as you said, right? Why do you feel like you are rebellious?"

"Hehe, it's just a matter of fact. As long as you listen to people with a little longer ears, you can know that Huaguo really doesn't have a special advantage this year. Those who are capable and can be closer to the second round or even the third round So many people, you can count them with your hands, and you still expect Hua Guo to be invincible in terms of level and strength this year? It's just a dream!"

"Coincidentally, that's what I told you in front of you, you are the one who didn't wake up, although Huaguo can't get a relatively high name in the world competition, but I have to fight with you Say, Huaguo's level and strength far exceed your imagination, especially the players who entered the first round. Huaguo should also have the most players in the first round in the world, far surpassing Dongying, no, far surpassing Dongying and South Korea !"

"What do you mean? Can someone tell me something?"

"It's very simple. He is actually scolding Huaguo's players, but the scolding is more subtle. You must know that Huaguo has the most players who enter the first round of the Chopin International Piano Competition every year, but they can enter the second round. In the first round or even in the third round, there are basically only one or two players left, so many people often say that the players in Huaguo are all destined for the first round."

"Well, this year may be similar to the past. Many people can enter the first round, but how many players can actually pass the first round and enter the second round? I always feel that the direction of this year's competition has changed."

"Yes, I feel the same way. I also feel that the trend of this year's competition seems to have become a bit strange. Before, many people thought they could enter the selection search. I didn't expect many of them to fail to enter the first round this year."

"Huh? Why has the anchor been silent? The anchor is talking! The anchor has been banned?"

"Maybe the anchor is thinking about how to say it?"

"Woooooo, Iceberg Beauty, I love it!"

"..."

Everyone's comments didn't affect Jiang Ruijia a little bit, she thought for a moment, then picked up the microphone and spoke to everyone.

"Okay, everyone, be quiet. In fact, what you said is all right, but there are things that are wrong."

Hearing Jiang Ruijia's voice, the barrage instantly refreshed the screen, and countless miscellaneous and strange barrages appeared on the screen, but Jiang Ruijia didn't even look at it, and didn't interact, but directly spoke in an extremely calm voice.

"Indeed, as you said, this year's players in Huaguo may still be the same as before. Most of them can only enter the first round, and it is difficult to enter the second round. After all, this is a classic situation in Huaguo. Players like Li Diyun are really rare among the rare."

"However... this is completely different from the previous situation, because the number of players who can enter the second round continues to decrease this year, which may be due to the wind direction of the Chopin International Piano Organizing Committee!"

"Recently, the direction of the Organizing Committee of the Chopin International Piano Competition has completely changed!"

Countless barrages poured out, and none of the crowd thought that Jiang Ruijia would actually say this.

"What does the anchor mean? What is the direction of the wind?"

"The anchor has sensed the direction of the organizing committee? I don't believe it. If you're so good, why don't you become a judge?"

"Ah~ The voice of the piano guy is so calm and cute, I slipped~"

"Go away, the rat upstairs!"

"..."

Jiang Ruijia automatically blocked those questioning and funny comments, manipulated the computer screen a little, and spoke to everyone.

"No, look at the notes I made before. Did you see that? In the place where I took the notes, I gave all the contestants a score, and then I used the proportion estimated by me after watching several Chopin sessions before. Give a specific score to judge whether these people can advance."

"I'm bluntly saying that in this note, I estimated that Dongpu could enter about 14 people, but the reality is completely different from what I thought. They only entered twelve, and I feel that they can be stable. The three or four people who entered, the kind of people with a very strong personal style, they didn't get in, but I thought they were more hanging before, and their music had less personal style, and they just imitated Chopin's group of people, Got a few more."

"What does this mean? This means that the direction of the Organizing Committee of the Chopin International Piano Competition has been completely changed! Our Huaguo players still have an advantage in the first round, because most of our Huaguo players are The kind of people who are very strong at the professional level, their basic skills are invincible, and they have a very good feeling for Chopin. There is no problem in being able to enter the first round!"

"For example, the one I recommended before, Fu Tiao, he successfully entered the first round relying on his super strong basic skills. As for the second round, I thought he should have no problems, but now I'm not sure. "

"At the same time, there are a few more interesting people, Xu Zi, Kong Qi, all of these people can enter the first round, but who among these people can enter the second round, or even the third round... ..."

"I think there may be only one person, and that is Kong Qi!"

Jiang Ruijia didn't say Fu Tiao's name, but pointed to a name she had rarely mentioned before, Kong Qi.

Kong Qi, a homonym for air, he often jokes with himself with a smile, saying that his music should be like air, everywhere, but in every place.

This is Kongqi's music.

Jiang Ruijia also listened to Kong Qi's music, and she spoke directly to the crowd.

"Compared with Fu Tiao, Kong Qi's music may be more in line with the aesthetics of all the judges and teachers. In this year's Chopin International Piano Competition, the judges are paying more and more attention to the feeling of Chopin among the contestants. They prefer the performance of the contestants. Follow the rules and play out Chopin's feeling, but I don't particularly like the player's personal style."

"So it's obvious that Kong Qi, who I only planned to stop in the second round, is very likely to enter the third round directly, and even has a chance to enter the fourth round! But Fu Tiao..."

Jiang Ruijia returned to Fu Tiao's body, her tone was extremely uncomfortable, and she spoke slightly sadly.

"I really don't know what the Organizing Committee of the Chopin International Piano Competition is doing. Why do they want to make the Chopin International Piano Competition what it is now? Are they completely crazy? The idea of ​​being the number one game in the world?"

"If you have listened to Fu Tiao's performance recently, you can find that Fu Tiao is still the kind of player full of personal style. The sense of music in his music is simply full, and his basic skills are so solid that there is no trace of it. I can even say that if the Chopin International Piano Competition only needs the beauty of music, Fu Tiao will definitely be one of the strongest players in this competition.”

"But it's a pity now. Judging from the current situation, although Fu Diao said before that he can enter the first round, the possibility of him entering the second round is very small. Now there is only one possibility to enter the second round. It is Fu Tiao who gives up all his personal ideas and becomes a person who follows the rules of the Chopin International Piano Competition."

"As for why Fu Tiao was not allowed to change his personal style, don't you think the other players are the same? Don't they also play their own style at the same level? If Fu Tiao plays the same style as these players, From time to time, Fu Tiao can also enter the second round, the third round, and even the final round?"

"The answer is...completely impossible!"

Jiang Ruijia shook her head violently. Holding the document in her hand, she rapped hard on the table, making a thumping sound, and she became extremely excited.

She said loudly: "If Fu Tiao chooses such a path, then he will ruin the rest of his life. The path in his music is enough for him to use it for the rest of his life, and even enough for him to eat for a lifetime, not limited. There is no way out in this ordinary Chopin."

"The Chopin International Piano Competition is not the end, not complete, but a starting point. If Fu Tiao is allowed to choose, abandon his whole style, and cater to the ideas of the judges, then Fu Tiao can be regarded as a real Destroyed in a sense!"

"That kind of Fu Diao is definitely not the Fu Diao that all of us want to see, but a Fu Diao that no one wants to see."

"The vastness of the sea in Fu Tiao's music must not be destroyed by such a competition! Absolutely not!"

Jiang Ruijia's face was flushed, and she gasped a few times.

The various question marks on the bullet screen made Jiang Ruijia gradually calm down.

Only then did she realize that she seemed to be too emotional just now. After all, Fu Tiao has nothing to do with her, and how Fu Tiao plays has little to do with her.

Why was she so emotional just now?Before Fu Tiao himself said that he planned to cater to the judges and change his playing method, she went crazy at this place and yelled at this place instead of Fu Tiao.

Looking at those question marks, Jiang Ruijia's face, which was originally pink because of being too emotional, instantly turned red.

Although no one noticed that her face changed because of the holster man, she must be aware of it herself.

At this moment, her emotions can no longer be broadcast live. If the live broadcast continues, Jiang Ruijia feels that she may do something that is enough to make her roll in bed for the rest of her life.

The kind of thing that will squat in the trash can and never come out when you think about it.

After Jiang Ruijia took a deep breath, she spoke to the audience in the computer.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little bit emotional. I won't be broadcasting live in the past few days. I'm going to reorganize the information to see what the preferences of these judges are, and see if I can construct a comparison. Logical weights come out, sorry."

After all, Jiang Ruijia disconnected without waiting for the bullet screen to brush goodbye.

The live broadcast software was turned off, and the blue light from the computer shone directly into the room, giving a slight light source to the dark room, but it did not give any warmth.

Jiang Ruijia rested her chin on her knees, staring blankly at the computer in front of her, not knowing what she was thinking.

Someone may have just recorded her remarks about Fu Tiao, or someone may even have made some ghosts or misunderstood the video with what she just said, these are all possible.

After all, her dog group members like to do this kind of thing one by one.

But now she has no energy to care about what those people think, she just feels powerless now.

It's not that Huaguo feels powerless because he can't win the Chopin International Piano Competition, but because of the changes in the Chopin International Piano Competition, some players can't get fair treatment and feel powerless.

She has no idea what she should do now. If that Zhao Chengzhen wins the championship this year, next year's contestant may have no personal style and become a pure Chopin machine.

But... Zhao Chengzhen is not wrong, he just thinks about music according to his own logic, and he is not a big devil.

Those judges were not wrong, many people also scored according to their own understanding and hobbies of Chopin. The actual situation is indeed that many people like the deeper and deeper Chopin, rather than their personal style.

So who was wrong?

It seems that no one is wrong, only those who choose their own style but still participate in the Chopin International Piano Competition.

This feeling was very powerless, Jiang Ruijia turned off the computer and plunged the room into darkness again.

In the darkness, her pupils were extremely black, and she sighed softly as she looked at everything that was empty.

"Chopin, Fu Diao..."

Jiang Ruijia shook her head, turned off the live broadcast, and fell into a state of autism by herself, ignoring her fan base and audience.

She felt uncomfortable and just wanted to be alone.

……

……

In fact, Jiang Ruijia is not the only one who noticed this matter, and many people who have studied Chopin also noticed this matter.

It's just that everyone thinks differently.

He Shen, who had been preparing a new work for Fu Tiao in the piano room, also noticed this. He rubbed his chin, looked at the content above and couldn't help showing a trace of interest, and then smiled.

"Interesting, really interesting, this year's competition seems to be getting more and more interesting!"

After all, He Shen shook his head, picked up the music score in his hand, turned around and walked towards the piano room.

He asked with other students, and after getting the approximate location of Fu Tiao, he walked towards Fu Tiao's piano room.

Soon he was standing at the door of Fu Tiao's piano room, and after Fu Tiao finished playing the works, he knocked lightly on the door of the room.

dong dong...

"Please wait a moment, I'm coming!"

Fu Tiao's voice quickly rang out in the room, and after a few seconds, Fu Tiao opened the door, wondering who came to find him when he was practicing the piano, and suddenly found that it was He Shen standing at the door.

Fu Tiao couldn't help looking at the piano behind him, feeling a little embarrassed for a while.

Not long ago, He Shen told him not to focus too much on Chopin, and let him focus on other places. He didn't expect He Shen to find him just after practicing, so he couldn't help but smile a little embarrassedly.

"Teacher He...what's the matter?"

"It's okay, you practice the piano, don't worry, I just told you not to go crazy, I didn't let you practice the piano, what are you afraid of?"

He Shen felt a little funny, patted the music score in his hand on Fu Tiao's chest, nodded to Fu Tiao, and motioned.

"No, this is the work I prepared for you, you take it first, I have something to ask you."

"Huh? These works..."

Fu Tiao took over the work given by He Shen, glanced at it briefly, and after getting a general understanding of the details, he put it directly on the piano shelf.

When he turned around and looked back, He Shen had already found a chair to sit down. Fu Tiao thought about it, then sat on the piano bench and looked at He Shen.

"Mr. He, you are looking for me... what can I do?"

"Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?" He Shen smiled, but he was only joking. When he saw Fu Tiao sitting down, he leaned forward, interlaced his fingers, looked into Fu Tiao's eyes, and asked softly. road.

"By the way...have you watched the news recently?"

"News? What news?" Fu Tiao was puzzled: "News about Chopin? Chopin released a new work on a certain music platform?"

Fu Tiao had noticed it before when he was looking for recordings. Those music software would often send him some messages saying that a certain composer had released a new work.

For example, Chopin released new works, Beethoven released new works, and Liszt released new works.

At that time, he took it seriously, thinking that Chopin really released new works, and some posthumous works that had not been discovered were found out and re-performed.

After listening to it, I realized...it was some recordings.

In order to save trouble, those performers directly filled in the name of the performer's family as Chopin's name, and Chopin has his own separate channel on the music software side.

This has caused those Chopin who have passed away to release some new works when they have nothing to do.

It was obvious that He Shen had also heard such jokes before, so he immediately laughed a few times, and then shook his head slightly.

"No, it's not that these composers crawled out to release new works, but Dongpu recorded a set of preparation videos for their players."

"Preparation video? What's wrong with the preparation video? Is there any big problem?" Fu Tiao felt like he understood it, but he didn't seem to understand it.

He Shen immediately explained: "Actually, there is a problem, but it's not a big problem. It's not a problem...in fact, some problems have been exposed. Simply put, they don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. The orientation of the edges is exposed."

"Orientation?" Fu Diao was stunned, unable to understand: "The orientation of the organizing committee? What do you mean?"

"To put it simply, this year's Chopin International Piano Competition, the judges' preference for the direction of the players' performance, whether they prefer more personal or Chopin."

"So... Which side is it leaning towards? Personally, or Chopin?"

"The answer is... Chopin!"

He Shen stared at Fu Tiao's dark pupils, and spoke very seriously.

"The answer given by the Organizing Committee of the Chopin International Piano Competition is that they want some more Chopin music, and they are not particularly optimistic about individual players."

"But..." Fu Tiao couldn't help but glanced at his schoolbag, hesitant to speak.

He Shen seemed to know what he was thinking, and immediately said: "I know what you want to say, you want to say that your playing style is also more personal, but why can you enter the first round, while those players can't? Go to the first round, right?"

Fu Tiao didn't speak.

He Shen smiled, leaned his body back, and said helplessly, "Fu Tiao, don't you know your own weight?"

"My... portion?"

"Yes, your portion!"

Although there was a smile in the corner of He Shen's eyes, he spoke very seriously, and he said slowly: "Fu Tiao, you don't know how solid your basic skills are, and you don't know how beautiful your music is. How powerful is the expression on it? To put it bluntly, if you simply discuss the basic skills and the beauty of music, among this year's contestants, I have not heard anyone surpass you in terms of basic skills and music beauty! Not even even!"

However, at the same level as you, although a little weak, but not too weak, there are still some players whose gap is not wide enough to deduct points.

He Shen didn't say this sentence, but just passed it in his mind.

He moved his body a bit to make himself more comfortable, and continued to Fu Tiao.

"But now there is a problem... that is, the wind direction of the organizing committee is not right. They are not biased towards you. Originally, you should have gone smoothly to the final round of the Chopin International Piano Competition, but now it is very likely that you will stop at second place. wheel."

Fu Tiao still didn't speak, he was looking at He Shen, waiting for his next words.

He Shen couldn't help but shrugged when he saw that Fu Diao didn't respond, and started another topic again.

"Remember that sentence I asked you a long time ago?"

"what?"

"I asked you, do you want to continue with my music, or rebuild your own musical logic system, do you remember how you answered me?"
