Chapter 71 Master Class (5k)

At this moment, in the Conservatory of Music of Jiangzhou Academy of Arts, countless students are standing on the stage and arranging the venue.

As the cheapest labor force, labor force that can be obtained without paying any penny, these students can be regarded as very useful.

Even if you only need a little verbal praise, they will be extremely excited, running around as errands and working hard without complaint.

If you don't want verbal praise, you can also give away a few hours of volunteer time, and these people who want to come and work for you are enough to form a long line for you to choose at will.

Some teachers in the school were standing in the aisle of the auditorium, looking at the students who had set up the venue around them, they couldn't help but smile, and looked at the man standing among them, whose hair had almost completely fallen out, with a complicated expression on his face .

Wednesday, Dean of the Piano Department of Jiangzhou Normal University, Professor of Piano.

"Director Zhou, it's amazing. I didn't expect you to actually get He Shen into my school to give lectures. It wasn't always rumored that He Shen didn't have a good relationship with our school because of his position. So I went directly to Haicheng Conservatory of Music, how did you invite Teacher He over, Director Zhou?"

"It's nothing, just come here then."

Zhou San smiled and rubbed the warm teacup in his hand, feeling the heat in his hand, the smile on his face was extremely strong.

"It's actually a very simple matter. A few days ago, there was a lecture in Haicheng, the Haicheng International Piano Education Conference, and many people were invited to it. As a professor at the top music colleges around Haicheng, Jiangzhou Normal University The deputy director of the Piano Department of the University’s School of Music, of course, I was also directly invited to this conference, and then I just met He Shen, and the two chatted for a while, and I successfully invited him over.”

"Huh? Awesome, Director Zhou, what are you guys talking about? I'm a little curious. He Shen doesn't really hate coming out. Why did he say inexplicably that he would hold a concert in the city where the conservatory of music across the country is located? I can't figure it out... "Someone said suddenly.

As soon as the words came out, some people saw that his expression was not particularly good, but Zhou San didn't care, he unscrewed the teacup in his hand with a smile, took a sip, and said casually.

"Actually, it's nothing. At that time, He Shen told me that he had accepted a student. Professor Wang from the Central Academy introduced him to him. After thinking about it, He Shen didn't dare to ask for it. Oh, no, it was after Professor Shan Yi's lecture at Xingzhou College that He Shen listened to Shan Yi's words and finally made this decision."

"Huh? What do you mean? Why did Professor Wang of the Central Academy introduce students to Teacher He and he didn't dare to take them? The past students of the Central Academy, and they are still professor-level students, are definitely not that bad, even if they are put in Haicheng The Conservatory of Music is not a bad student, right? Why don’t you dare to take it? If you throw such a student to our Jiangzhou Art Academy, I will definitely accept it, right?”

"That's right, I didn't understand why I didn't dare to ask for it. Is there a conflict between Teacher He Shen and that professor?"

"Certainly not. Since they have been introduced, there must be no problem. First, let's talk about whether you can contact the other party if there is a conflict. Just talk about sending students. If you have conflicts, you dare to introduce your students. ? Even if you introduced him to others, it is impossible for them to accept you! At that time, Lang Liangyue was introduced to the Central Academy and was rejected. It was not because his teacher had a bad relationship with that Central Academy teacher, right? "

"It can't be that the student didn't send money to He Shen, right? Then he didn't give it?"

"How is it possible? He Shen's reputation can be regarded as one of the better students among the students in the conservatory. Although he said he would accept some students to subsidize his own expenses, the kind of thing that collects money to send students to the school I haven’t really seen him do this before, but one thing to say is that he teaches seriously and strives to teach students to the point where they can enter the school. If you want to find a relationship, you will not go to him."

"That's true. Why did He Shen dare not accept it?"

"who knows……"

Everyone looked at the students around them, and couldn't help but lower their voices a little bit. After all, although it is very common in many places to send students to school with money, there are also many students around them. It was sent to school with a clearly marked price, but it is still not very good to actually put it on the table.

Zhou San watched these people discuss He Shen's matter with a smile, and didn't say much.
It's just that when he talked about collecting money to send students to study in school, his eyes were a little cold, and he snorted slightly in a voice that no one could hear.

When everyone couldn't hold back anymore, he spoke softly.

"The matter of why He Shen is unwilling to accept students is his own business. I think it may be related to his previous experience. He doesn't want to force students to come to his door, so he doesn't dare to accept them, but wait. After asking Shan Yi and confirming the news, he reluctantly agreed, let’s just skip this matter and stop discussing it.”

"Good Director Zhou!"

Everyone immediately nodded and said yes.

Zhou San raised his hand and glanced at the time, and found that He Shen, Fu Tiao and others hadn't come yet, so he probably guessed that they might be stuck in traffic on the road, so he continued to speak.

"However, as for the matter of student He Shen, I have a little understanding, so I can tell you about it."

After finishing speaking, he coughed slightly, and after drawing everyone's attention to him, he asked the crowd.

"Guess...what is the identity of He Shen's student?"

"Hmm... a relative of a certain great professor?"

"Pay a lot of money to get into the school?"

"I feel like he might be a relative of He Shen?"

Everyone cooperated with Wednesday to make random guesses, but Wednesday rejected them one by one, and then looked at everyone and spoke.

"He Shen's student is called Fu Diao, and he is one of the 80 contestants in this year's Chopin International Piano Competition."

After the words fell, all the teachers couldn't help but froze, looking at Wednesday in front of them, they didn't react for a while.

"Oh? One of the 80 this year?"

"He participated in the Chopin International Piano Competition and successfully entered the main competition?"

"He Shenke has developed now. If his students can successfully get one of the final six, then he will be directly promoted to the strongest teachers, right?"

"Not necessarily, the strongest one teaching Chopin now has to be Shanyi, and then the strongest teaching in the competition should be Director Tang of Haicheng Conservatory of Music. Even if He Shen's student won the first place, He Shen's status has improved The possibility is not too great, is it?"

"Could it be... He Shen is afraid that he will make a wedding dress for others? After all, the student of He Shen was sent by the professor of the Central Academy. Don't let the student perform well, it will be the professor of the Central Academy. How deep is it?"

"It feels possible, but He Shen's Chopin is one of the strongest in China, and can even be regarded as the top three Chopin players among the teachers in Huaguo. Is it more difficult?"

"I don't know... But He Shen probably won't come back, right? If Fu Tiao really got a particularly high grade."

Everyone was still discussing about He Shen. Compared with Fu Tiao who won the Chopin International Piano Competition, He Shen was more concerned by these teachers.

After all, to know He Shen's student Fu Diao, it is certainly impossible for him to suddenly become a teacher and compete with them for food.

But He Shen is different. He Shen came from Jiangzhou. If he can teach a top boss in Haicheng and be favored by the leaders of Jiangzhou, it is entirely possible to return to Jiangzhou. A particularly high-ranking post at the Conservatory of Music.

That is the legendary gilt.

It is not a day or two for teachers like them to want to climb a little higher, so it is always uncomfortable to hear that He Shen has benefited from going out.

Wednesday saw very early on that many of these teachers in the school were not focused on teaching, and they didn't particularly care about some things in music. What they cared more about was wanting to go a little higher.

So, he just stood there sipping the tea in his cup, listening to the teachers talking, smiling without saying a word.

After all, there is nothing to say, and different ways do not conspire with each other.

These people don't care about He Shen's performance level, nor what He Shen said today, but think about why He Shen is unwilling to accept students from the Central Academy, and when he thinks about whether He Shen will return to Jiangzhou to take up a position, he I don't want to hear it anymore.

It may be that the vision of these people limits their imagination, or it may be because they have been in this big dye vat for a long time, and they have long been used to it.

Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for them to remain indifferent to truly awesome characters.

but……

Zhou San looked at the students in the distance who were still tidying up the venue, determining the location of the table, the location of the piano, and whether the ppt was correct, and his eyes couldn't help but a little far-sighted.

It would be great if He Shen was still on Jiangzhou's side back then.

The students sent over by the Central Academy are also contestants in the qualifiers of the Chopin International Piano Competition.

If trained well, he can really be regarded as the kind of student in the school's signature, and even tell others when he goes out, saying that this student is from his own music school.

How proud to say it.

It's a pity that those people and He Shen had a very unpleasant quarrel at that time, which eventually caused He Shen to resign directly from the Conservatory of Music of Jiangzhou Normal University and apply for the position of lecturer in the Piano Department of Haicheng Conservatory of Music.

I don't know what position He Shen is sitting in Haicheng now, and I don't know if he has got what he wants.

Zhou San shook his head, put this thought aside, slightly twisted his waist, and prepared to go outside the house to check the situation.

Let's see when He Shen and the others will come over.

However, just as he was about to go out, the door next to the concert hall opened, and a tall, thin student ran over in a hurry, rushed in front of several teachers, and said out of breath: .

"Old, teacher, I saw what you showed me before. The car that was sent to pick up Mr. He Shen has returned. Mr. Qian from our school got out of the car with two people he didn't know. It should be Mr. He. There are his students."

"Huh? He Shen is here? Let's go, let's take a look together."

After all, without waiting for the other teachers to speak, Zhou San's eyes lit up instantly. Regardless of the expressions around him, he quickly ran to the outside of the concert hall. After opening the door, not long after, He Shen and others appeared It appeared in his line of sight.

He Shen was still the same as he was a few years ago, smiling and chatting with Qian Yan next to him. Seeing that He Shen didn't seem to care at all, Zhou San couldn't help laughing, and walked forward to meet him.

"How deep."

"Director Zhou!"

He Shen was also a little happy when he saw Wednesday, he walked forward quickly, and stretched out his hand to Wednesday with a smile.

"Long time no see, Director Zhou, how are you doing?"

"It's been a long time since we've seen each other. We've only met each other at the Haicheng International Piano Education Conference. How long has it been since you told me you haven't seen me for a long time?"

"Hey, please be polite and make a joke. Director Zhou, why are you still as serious as before? It's boring."

He Shen happily greeted Wednesday, then looked at the group of people behind Wednesday, scanned around, nodded slightly, and smiled.

"Hi, I'm He Shen. The person behind me is my student, Fu Tiao."

After all, He Shen beckoned back, and called Fu Diao, who was looking at the campus of Jiangzhou Art College, which was many times bigger than Haicheng Conservatory of Music, and patted him on the shoulder.

"No, it's this one."

Fu Tiao turned his gaze back to the people in front of him, and nodded slightly.

"Hello."

Zhou San's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help nodding: "That's right, classmate Fu Diao is very much like your teacher He Shen back then, and your teacher He Shen was also like that... cold, focused on music, everyone thought that at that time He has lost his emotions, he didn't expect to experience so much later, He Shen, you would be joking with other people."

He Shen was helpless: "At that time, I was still struggling with how to play Chopin better. How could I have so much time to think about other things? Isn't it because I was a little cold, why did I lose my emotions? "

Zhou San's eyes lit up: "Oh? So you're emotional now? So do you have a date? What about the female student you were chasing after? She looks a few years younger than you, since you said If you are emotional, then you must be able to accept her love, right?"

He Shen suddenly didn't know what to say, opened his mouth for a long time, and finally sighed: "Forget it, just think that I am still immersed in Chopin."

"Tsk tsk..." Zhou San rubbed his chin, seeing Fu Tiao in such a state, it was not good to continue asking.

Obviously, He Shen should not be with the female student who had been chasing him before him.

However, when Fu Diao was 24, his student was 19 years old, the difference in age was only five years old, the age gap is not that big, is it because He Shen taught her piano for more than a year and became a tutor once, why didn’t He Shen accept it? ?
If it's me...

Zhou Wednesday suddenly laughed twice.

If it was me, I would definitely accept it, it was just a short teaching session, and the age gap was not that big, so I could definitely have some fun when I accepted it.

Ah~ classmate, let the teacher see if there is any problem with your homework~
Ah~ Teacher, please don’t~
Thinking of this place on Wednesday, he couldn't help coughing twice, trying to calm down a little.

He looked up at He Shen, just about to speak, but found that He Shen was looking at him with a very helpless expression.

"Director Zhou, you were thinking about some bad things just now."

"Ahem... nothing, don't talk nonsense, I will sue you for defamation later!"

Zhou San waved his hand, turned around and pointed in the direction of the concert hall, and continued to He Shen.

"Okay, let's not talk about your relationship first. It has nothing to do with me that you and your female student have been flirting with each other. The main purpose of coming here today is to discuss tonight's speech with you. Our school has already made it for you. If you want to change it, I can ask the students to change it as soon as possible, but it has been posted for a few days, and I have enough time to change it at the entrance of the concert hall."

After all, Zhou San took He Shen, Fu Tiao and others to the entrance of the concert hall, and a huge poster appeared in front of everyone.

On the background of pure black with a trace of faintly visible staff lines, He Shen pressed his chin, his eyes deep, as if thinking.

Fu Tiao, on the other hand, looks to the other side, using a performance gesture.

Judging by the way He Shen played, it should be a cutout...

But where did it come from?
Fu Tiao looked at the picture and thought for a long time. Looking at the clothes he was wearing at that time, he felt a bit like the clothes he wore when he held a concert with He Shen?

Under the two, there is a line of words.

"He Shen Master Class: Chopin Polonaise Hero"

"Performer: Fu Diao, Speaker: He Shen."

Wait, the player is himself?

Fu Tiao was stunned, and couldn't help looking at He Shen, who also turned his head to look at Fu Tiao at the same time, grinning, and didn't explain, but seemed to have explained everything.

Fu Tiao's thoughts passed quickly, and in the end he didn't say much, just glanced at it and continued to look at the surrounding scenery.

There is one thing to say, Jiangzhou Art Academy is much more beautiful than Haicheng Conservatory of Music, the scenery of Haicheng Conservatory of Music... what is that thing?
But... I didn't expect that this master class was really going to be on stage.

He Shen didn't have any objections, he greeted everyone, let everyone move freely, and then reassembled later.

He wants to chat with Wednesday first, after all, we haven't seen each other for a long time, so we can talk about the specific content of this master class.

Before He Shen left, he explained one more thing.

"Oh, by the way, Fu Tiao, if you want to practice the piano again, you can go to that Qian Yan just now and ask him to take you. He is quite familiar with this place. For others... you It’s better not to get in touch for the time being. If you don’t want to practice, you can just stroll around this place by yourself. After all, this place is an art academy, not a music academy. There are also art students in this place. Some of their works are quite interesting. Five nights Just be back before [-]:[-]."

After all, he went straight into the concert hall.

Fu Tiao looked at the backs of the people around him who gradually dispersed, shook his head slightly, and walked into the distance.

He is really interested in this school.

However, just when he had not gone far, an extremely gentle voice stopped him and asked with a little hesitation.

"That...you are He Shen's student, right?"
