Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1013 273. Looking to the future, badminton six-person team!
After knocking on the door three times, Li An pushed it open and walked in.

Teacher Qi and Yang Dali never expected that Li Ang and the others would arrive half an hour early, so they quickly stood up to greet them.

"Why didn't you tell me when you arrived?" Teacher Qi blamed Li An, then turned around and greeted Chen Xuan warmly.

According to the rules, as a junior, Chen Xuan should greet Teacher Qi first. Seeing this, she quickly responded, "Happy New Year, Teacher Qi, Happy New Year, President Yang," and put aside the gifts that Li Ang prepared for them.

Yang Guangtou asked the waiter to serve the food, and asked the two to sit down quickly, "It's not easy for Teacher Chen to come back."

"It's really not easy," Li An sat down and took out a cigarette, "This year's schedule is too tight. We have to go back in the afternoon of the sixth day of the New Year."

Teacher Qi took the cigarette and nodded: "You are also helpless now."

Li An: “Oh.”

Yang Guangtou: "I'm in a hurry to go back for a performance."

Li An: "It just happened to be the eighth day of the first lunar month."

Teacher Qi: "Yang Hui and the others keep talking about you. I told them that your teacher is busy."

Li An smiled and said, "Yang Hui and Wang Qichun did well in the exam."

Teacher Qi: "They just focus on cultural subjects."

Li An: "It's a pity for Li Yiran."

Teacher Qi: "He is still immature. Now seeing that others have done so well in the exam, he regrets it. On the 30th, his father called me and said that he wanted to repeat the year."

Lee Ang: "If he comes for another year, it should be about the same. He is actually faster than Yang Hui."

Teacher Qi sighed: "It depends on him this year."

After a pause, he said, "How about the ones you brought this year? They should be pretty good."

Li An: "The rankings are all OK, and they have met our expectations."

Teacher Qi: "That's good. I managed to get through this year, but several schools here may cancel their entrance exams next year."

After a moment, "Oh, now I am worried about what to do next year."

Li An understood that once the surrounding schools cancelled their entrance exams, Teacher Qi would lose several stable channels for supplying students.

Without channels, competitiveness will naturally decline, which is extremely unfavorable for subsequent development.

Li An: "Next year, school entrance exams will be cancelled across the country on a large scale, and this batch includes all comprehensive universities."

Teacher Qi frowned slightly when he heard this, "Is it settled?"

Li An nodded: "Yes, I just got the news too. There will be no major or minor subjects in the future. The proportion of cultural subjects will be greatly increased. For most music students, the era of competing for majors is over."

Teacher Qi: "How do you deal with that?"

Li An: "There has been no major movement yet, but I heard that two institutions have already started discussing cooperation. One of them specializes in art training, and the other one specializes in cultural courses."

Teacher Qi: “I’ve also been thinking about this. Maybe this will be the trend of the future.”

Li An shook his head: "It's hard to say. This art exam reform seems to be aimed at balancing the comprehensive qualities of art students, but it is also a signal that we don't need so many art students now. It's hard to say whether the policy will change every year, so I suggest that we don't rush here. Moving fast may not mean walking fast."

Teacher Qi: "Yeah, that's right. It's not just my family that's having problems. Let's not talk about this for now. Come on."

Guangtou Yang poured the wine, Chen Xuan drank the beverage, and the four of them clinked glasses.

After three rounds of drinks and some chatting, the topic at the dinner table returned to the development of the art training industry this year.

Li An felt that it was about right, so he mentioned the children's training, "Teacher Qi, why don't you consider doing something lower?"

When Li An said this, Teacher Qi and Yang Guangtou nodded subconsciously at the same time.

"We were discussing this before you came," Teacher Qi said with a wry smile, "It's not easy to do."

Li An: "The source of students."

Teacher Qi nodded: "It's not like your place, where there are few children and parents' awareness is not up to par."

Yang Guangtou grinned: "The point is, there's no point in just a little fight."

Li An followed suit with a smile. He got the point of what was said. After a moment, he said, "Hey, why don't we set up bands for primary and secondary schools? Starting from the schools, we can have everything down the line."

Teacher Qi clapped his hands, looked at Yang Dali and then turned to Li An, "I just told him that I went to Lan City for inspection several times before the New Year. Several schools have been doing quite well, and their model is similar to yours."

Li An pretended to think for a moment, "Well, Mr. Qi, I'll come back in the evening. I'll call my second father to see if their school has any plans in this regard."

When Mr. Qi heard what Ang Lee said, the stone in his heart instantly fell to the ground. He was looking forward to Ang Lee's return and wanted to ask Ang Lee to do him this favor.

"That's great," Teacher Qi said, raising his glass. "To be honest, Ang Lee, this has been a great help to me."

"I'm not happy when you say that," Li An raised his glass and clinked it with Lao Qi's, "You should have told me about this earlier."

Teacher Qi sighed softly, and Li An rushed ahead: "Leave it to me."

After a pause, he said, "But you know my second father's school. There are not many students. They are all children of our mine workers. When the time comes, we will discuss musical instruments."

Yang Dali: "Teacher Li, don't worry, we will sell at the lowest price."

Li An waved his hand: "No, let's put it this way. Brother Yang, it's not easy for you either. Let me ask first. As long as my second father can nod, the rest will be easy."

Yang Dali: "Okay, okay."

Li An: "If it works, let's work together to do a pilot project, and then other schools can follow up. I estimate that it will be done in Yucheng in less than two years."

Teacher Qi: "That's hard work."

Li An laughed: "You and I are still like this?"

The four of them raised their glasses.

After the dinner, Yang Dali took out an exquisite musical instrument box from his bag.

"Teacher Chen, this is a flute that was just made in the factory. Please take it back and help me try it out. Give us some suggestions."
-
On the way home, Li An opened the instrument case and took a look. The golden flute was extremely dazzling in the darkness.

Chen Xuan: “This”

Li An: "Try it for him."

Chen Xuan: "Not good, right?"

Li An smiled and said, "What's wrong with that? The cost of this flute may not be as expensive as the two boxes of sea cucumbers we brought him. If we have to calculate the cost, it's not certain who is losing out."

There was no one at home. Old Li was at the farm and An's mother was at her grandfather's house. While Chen Xuan was washing up, Li An called Li Xuebin.

Then Ang Lee called Teacher Qi again and arranged for them to sit down together at noon on the fifth day of the New Year to discuss this matter.

This matter is definitely not a trivial matter for Ang Lee. At the moment, he is just a puller.

But in the long run, this is just the first step.

Li An believes that the focus is on the resources of art exam candidates in Yucheng.

Now he already has a regular teacher. If he can cooperate with Teacher Qi this year and expand the scale like he did last year when he gave online classes to Yang Hui and others, it will be a direct source of income.

It is even possible to invite the candidates to come to Sigang for a one-month training session during this period, which will be another source of income.

Although the reform of art examinations is a foregone conclusion, professional examinations are still a must.

There are some things he didn't say during the meal. Looking at it from another perspective, isn't the large-scale cancellation of school entrance examinations a good thing for other art exam candidates?
At least it's relatively fair.

After a few years, Teacher Qi will have completely integrated Yucheng's student resources from top to bottom. By then, it won't take more than 30 art exams for Teacher Qi to be sent to him every year.

What Li Ang needs to do is to help these candidates improve as much as possible within the limited professional requirements.

Of course, all of this is just his idea, and he is not sure how far it can go.

Let's take a step by step.

After washing up, Chen Xuan went to bed first, and then Li An also washed up and went to bed.

"Did Zheng Xiaoyu reply to you?"

"Just got back, she said she could come."

"nervous?"

"Why am I nervous?"
-
Early in the morning on the fourth day of the New Year, Chen Xuan got up and played the instrument that Yang Dali gave her.

Surprisingly, it's quite good.

So Teacher Xiaomi practiced the orchestra recruitment clip for a while, and Ang Lee also played with his ancient broken piano in the living room for a while.

At 10:30 in the morning, the two took a taxi and set off for Zhuangzi.

On the way, Li An glanced at the backstage panel and smiled in his heart. No wonder Xiaoche kept sending him some photos of mountains and rivers these days. It turned out that he went out to play.

He also hopes that Xiaoche can go out more during the Chinese New Year. Sometimes music cannot be created by sitting in front of the piano, especially for a child like Xiaoche.

"Teacher! Teacher Chen!"

"Fourth sister-in-law!"

"Uncle! Aunt!" As soon as the car stopped at the gate of the courtyard and Li An and his friend got out of the car, a familiar face appeared in front of them.

In addition to Li Zheng and Yan Zi, Yang Shuangyu also came to greet him.

Li An's uncle hurried out of the courtyard gate, "Chen Xuan is back! Come in, come in!"

Another lunch is about to begin.
-
Rongcheng.

1:00 p.m., Haoying Badminton Hall.

Wang Xiaohu was the first to arrive, followed by Qiao Zhizhi and Liu Fengrui.

Wang Xiaohu listened to the two of them sharing their interesting stories about the New Year. After a while, the carriages of Marco and Xiaobei arrived one after another.

The car returned to Chengdu at 12:30 noon. She went home, picked up the racket that Teacher Chen gave her, and hurriedly locked the bus and rushed back.

“Everyone is here!”

Six children walked into the badminton hall in a mighty procession.

Even though it’s only the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, there are quite a few people in the badminton hall.

Wang Xiaohu booked two venues in total. Since Xiaobei and Marco didn't know how to play, Wang Xiaohu let Xiaoche, Qiao Zhizhi and Liu Fengrui play on one venue first.

He was teaching Marco and Xiaobei in a field nearby.

Marco is okay, he got the hang of it pretty quickly.

Xiaobei really lacks athletic talent. After twenty minutes of learning, he could only catch a few balls on the spot.

But Xiaobei is very easy to satisfy. She is very happy when she can hit the ball back from Marco.

But we can’t play like this, Marco keeps picking up the ball.

After a moment, Wang Xiaohu looked at the game on the side, his eyes turned and he thought of a move.

Seeing that Qiao Zhizhi was not at a disadvantage in dealing with Che Lin and Liu Fengrui at the same time, he called a halt and gathered everyone together.

"Marco and Xiaobei are almost ready, let's officially start fighting separately!" Wang Xiaohu suggested.

Liu Fengrui: "Okay, how do we divide it?"

Qiao Zhizhi: "Six people, two courts, one group for doubles and one group for singles."

Xiaobei raised his hand: "I'm not quite there yet."

Marco: "+1."

Wang Xiaohu: "Ah Liu, accompany Ma Ke to practice for a while."

Liu Fengrui: "Okay, then the four of you will form a doubles team."

Wang Xiaohu: "Xiaobei, you and Qiao Zhizhi are in one group, and Che Lin and I are in one group."

Xiaobei: “Okay!”

Xiaoche laughed: "It's a huge pressure."

Wang Xiaohu: “Don’t worry!”

Qiao Zhizhi raised her lips and said, "Sister Linlin, I'm sorry," and glared at Wang Xiaohu, "Come on, Sports Committee member."

As they were talking, the two venues started fighting again.

But after fighting for a while, Liu Fengrui and Marco stopped at the same time.

The two of them always looked at the field to the side.

"Zhizhi is too strong."

"+1."

Liu Fengrui had learned badminton for a semester. He had a hard time playing two-on-one with Xiaoche and Qiao Zhizhi just now, and he thought it was his own problem.

Now looking at the combination of Wang Xiaohu and Xiaoche, they were unexpectedly suppressed by Qiao Zhizhi so "embarrassingly".

In their minds, Wang Xiaohu is a macho man sent from heaven in the sports world, and Xiaoche is also a physical freak.

I can only say that Qiao Zhizhi is too fierce.

Xiao Liu sighed: "Is there anything that Qiao Zhizhi is not good at?"

Marco thought for a moment and said, "Play the piano."

Xiao Liu: “Anything else?”

Xiao Ma thought for a moment and said, "Eat meat."

Xiao Liu turned around and asked: "Do you think you are implying something?"

Xiao Ma: "Lao Liu, you seem to have gained weight again during the New Year holidays."

Xiao Liu: “Really?!”

"boom."

At this moment, Qiao Zhizhi hit another lob and almost sent Wang Xiaohu flying into the air.

"Have you practiced before?" Wang Xiaohu picked up the ball and shouted across the net. This ball was impossible to hit. He and Che Lin were no match at all.

Qiao Zhizhi raised her racquet and smiled, "I said it in the group yesterday. I have learned it."

You clearly said that you learned a little?! Wang Xiaohu thought to himself that Liu Fengrui also said that he learned a little!

Brother Xiaohu has always been the one who beats others in sports, but I didn’t expect to meet a tough opponent in badminton.

But a wise man never suffers a loss in front of him, "Re-partition!"

This time Wang Xiaohu brought Xiaobei to play against Marco Liu Fengrui.

Qiao Zhizhi and Che Lin duel.

Although it was called a one-on-one duel, the four people here looked towards the next field from time to time, and saw that the two people were fighting back and forth, and they seemed to be evenly matched.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaohu thought that Qiao Zhizhi did it on purpose and was targeting him.

But to be honest, Qiao Zhizhi's steps and batting posture are really beautiful.

Imitating Qiao Zhizhi's steps, it didn't take long for Brother Xiaohu and Xiaobei to suppress Xiao Liu and Marco.

"kill!"

Finally, Xiaobei hit the ball randomly, and the ball went high over Liu Fengrui and Marco with a "bang", then flew out of the field.

"Yeah!"

Although the ball went out of bounds, it was the first time today that Xiaobei hit the opponent's baseline from his own backcourt.

“Badminton is so much fun!”

Xiaobei, who had never liked sports, felt the charm of sports for the first time.

Looking at Xiaobei's happy expression, everyone laughed.

Liu Fengrui: "Let's make regular appointments to play ball in the future."

Xiao Bei: "Okay, okay! Okay, Linlin!"

Xiaoche: "Okay! Zhizhi needs to teach us more."

Marco: “+1”

Qiao Zhizhi: "No, I just fought more than everyone else."

Wang Xiaohu: "Haha, just wait."

Qiao Zhizhi: "Want a game?"

Wang Xiaohu: "Haha, I'm a little tired now."

Liu Fengrui: "Someone got scared."

Wang Xiaohu: "Let's do it together?!"

Liu Fengrui: "I admit defeat! What's the matter?"

Ha ha ha ha--

After a pleasant game of badminton, the six children dried their sweat and then went to their next destination of the day together.

A fried chicken shop opened in Tianhu Commercial Street, offering a 30% discount during the Chinese New Year. The place was discovered by Liu.

"Lao Liu, have you gained some weight during the New Year?"

".Go away!"
-
At six o'clock in the evening, Li An left the village alone and returned to the city.

There was still an hour left before the party at 7 o'clock, but Chen Xuan suddenly said that she would not go and wanted to talk to grandpa and grandma.
