Heroines: Opening Dialogue with Wu Zetian

Chapter 43 Guqin Scorched Tail!concert!

Eleven o'clock at night.

Su Qingyue was lying on the bed and swiping her phone when suddenly a lot of news popped up.

"Shocked! Jiaowei, the famous Chinese piano, has reappeared!"

"Huaxia Academy of Arts announces that Guqin Jiaowei is alive!"

"Exclusive live interview with President Zhao Zhen of Huaxia Academy of Arts!"

Su Qingyue quickly clicked into the live broadcast.

Dean Zhao Zhen, with white hair, was sitting in a seat accepting interviews from the media. Behind her was a huge glass cover, which contained the Jiaowei of Guqin.

Reporter: Dean Zhao Zhen, hello!Can you tell us about the discovery process of Guqin Jiaowei?
Zhao Zhen: I would like to thank Su Qingyue, the host of Jinghai TV Station, for this matter. It is she who has the insight to buy this guqin from a street stall!
Reporter: Is the Su Qingyue you're talking about the host of the recently popular show "Dialogue with Ancient and Modern Times"?

Zhao Zhen: Exactly!
……

Su Qingyue: "It's over, it's over, why did you tell me about it!"

……

"It's Su Qingyue? It can't be such a coincidence, it seems that Cai Wenji did give her a guqin in that show?"

"Could it be that Su Qingyue really traveled to the Three Kingdoms period and met Cai Wenji?"

"Nonsense, how can modern people travel back to ancient times?"

"I see, Su Qingyue must have discovered this piano a long time ago, but it was first used in the show and then handed in!"

"possible!"

……

Reporter: Dean Zhao, how can you be sure that this is the real Guqin Jiaowei?Is there any definite basis?
Zhao Zhen: Since the Guqin is made of wood, our Huaxia Arts Research Institute specially used carbon fourteen to trace the history, and found that this Qin was indeed from 800 years ago.

Reporter: Could it be fraudulent?We all know that it is completely possible to make old things with current scientific methods.

Zhao Zhen: This possibility does exist, so I specially invited cultural relics appraisal experts to appraise it. Through the comprehensive judgment of broken grain, lacquer dust, Qin inscription, tone color, smell and shape, it is undoubtedly authentic.

Reporter: That's really gratifying!We all know that the Guqin Jiaowei has long been lost, and it is indeed a great joy for us in China to be able to reappear now!

Zhao Zhen: That’s true, but we don’t just want to put it in a museum when we get the Guqin, the Guqin needs to be rejuvenated in the new era!
Reporter: Rejuvenate?Can Dean Zhao tell us more about it?

Zhao Zhen: First of all, we used line-structured light to obtain the target [-]D images of the various surfaces of the Guqin’s Jiaowei, and established a three-dimensional model of the Guqin’s Jiaowei. If you are interested, you can go to the official website of Huaxia Academy of Arts to download and view it.

Secondly, we will hold a Guqin Jiaowei recital tomorrow afternoon at the Grand Theater of Prince Kung’s Mansion. We hope you will support us!

Reporter: Dean Zhao!You mean, you want to use Jiaowei Guqin to play music?
Zhao Zhen: That’s right, the guqin itself is a musical instrument and should not be placed in a museum. If the guqin is not played by people, it will gradually lose its popularity and cannot be played!

Reporter: Wow, that's really exciting!Dear audience friends, what does the sound of Guqin performance from 800 years ago look like?If you are interested, you might as well go to the Grand Theater of Prince Gong’s Mansion to find out.Thank you, Dean Zhao, for accepting our interview. This is the end of this live interview, bye!

……

"Guqin Jiaowei recital? I'm looking forward to it!"

"Is there a pre-sale? This must be supported!"

"Sisters, the Grand Theater of Prince Kung's Mansion has just issued a notice. In order to prevent ticket scalping, real-name ticket purchases will be made on the official website. One person, one ticket!"

"Okay! This method is good! I hate scalpers the most!"

"Must support!"

……

A guqin forum.

"Tomorrow afternoon, we will hold a Guqin Jiaowei concert at the Grand Theater of Prince Kung's Mansion! The performer should most likely be Teacher Zhao Zhen!"

"Really! That's a 800-year-old Guqin, a serious cultural relic!"

"This is too great, this concert must be heard!"

"Let Guqin come alive!"

……

"Beep beep..."

Su Qingyue picked up the phone, it was the director calling.

"Hello? Director, are you still asleep?"

"Su Qingyue, you must come to the TV station tomorrow morning!"

"Okay! Hello? Hello? Damn, it's over!"

Su Qingyue shook her head, turned off her phone, and quickly fell asleep.

……

The next day, ten in the morning.

Jinghai TV station.

"Xiao Su, did you really buy that guqin from a street stall?"

"Yeah, I made a mistake, but I didn't expect it to be Jiaowei."

The director narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Qingyue, and said with a smile: "Qingyue, you are still young after all, and your lying skills are not mature enough, forget it, since you don't want to talk about it, then forget it, but I still want to thank you, You have also made a contribution to our country."

"Thank you Director!"

"By the way, according to the practice of our TV station, there are usually seven episodes in one season. That is to say, the next episode will be the finale of the first season of "Dialogue with Ancient and Modern". Do you have any candidates?"

"Close..."

"It's like this. Since it's the finale, the tone of this issue should be positive, not too sad, and not too controversial. It's best to encourage everyone to work hard."

"Okay, then I'll go back and look for information."

"Okay, come on! I hope that the first season will have a beautiful ending!"

"understand!"

"Oh, by the way, Dean Zhao Zhen sent some tickets to the guqin recital. If you need it, take a few."

"okay!"

"Hey, hey, I took too many, up to six!"

……

Green Vine District.

Maids: "Guqin recital! Wow, I didn't expect Miss Su to have such an elegant taste!"

Su Qingyue: "This is a ticket given by someone else. In fact, I don't know anything about Guqin."

Maids: "We still have jobs, so we probably won't be able to go."

"It's okay, let's go and listen to it! After all, it's Miss Su's wish. It's only a few hours, it won't delay anything, just let Uncle Li stay at home." Shen Xinghe came out of the recording studio and said with a smile.

"Wow, thank you Mr. Shen!"

"Boss Shen is awesome!"

……

02:30 in the afternoon.

The Grand Theater of Prince Kung's Mansion.

The curtain slowly opened, and Teacher Zhao Zhen stood on the stage, smiling and bowing to the audience.

"Thank you for your support. It really surprised me that so many people came today."

……

"Mr. Zhao, come on! We will always support Guqin culture!"

"It's our honor to hear the sound of Guqin Jiaowei!"

"Yes, Mr. Zhao, you are welcome! You are the inheritor of Huaxia's Guqin intangible heritage, and it is most suitable for you to play Jiaowei!"

……

Zhao Zhen: "Many familiar faces came down from the stage today. Here I would like to introduce to you Su Qingyue, the host of Jinghai TV Station! It was she who discovered the Guqin Jiaowei and gave the piano to Our country! Let us all applaud her!"

"Clap clap clap..."

There was thunderous applause, and Su Qingyue quickly got up and bowed to thank her.
