The God of Conducting Starting from Absolute Pitch

Chapter 416: The Tightened Longbow

With Yu Tu causing such trouble, Chen Qiu no longer had any intention of chatting with Zhao Yi.

He now focused all his attention on the orchestra, turned back to the concert hall, and began to continue rehearsing with everyone.

Go and see if there is anything special about the music that deserves special attention, such as what needs to be changed.

If there is anything that needs to be changed, it is not too late to change it now.

He sat alone in the middle of the concert hall, listening to the musicians in the orchestra rehearsing their parts without stopping for a moment.

It's morning now.

According to their previous rehearsal routine, everyone's attention was basically focused on their own music, that is, they practiced their own music.

Then in the afternoon, they made some slight changes and began to rehearse segments and the whole thing.

Normally, Chen Qiu would not come over at this time. In the morning, everyone would practice on their own. If they had any questions, they would ask the chief first. If the chief did not know the answer, they would come and ask Chen Qiu.

But today.

Chen Qiu did not go out, but stayed at the scene to listen to their rehearsal.

The pressure in everyone's hearts suddenly increased.

It’s just like when you are taking an exam, your teacher sits on the podium and watches you write each question one by one.

Who is not under great pressure.

But it's okay.

Chen Qiu is different from the exam.

Chen Qiu sat in this place solely to provide answers to everyone.

This means that during the exam, your teacher will sit next to you and go through each question one by one. If you make a mistake, he will point it out and help you correct it.

Although there is still pressure, it is slightly less.

Su Yue sat in the audience, practicing her clarinet. Her eyes did not wander at all, and she worked hard to practice her part well.

Yue Fu nearby felt that the atmosphere seemed a little strange, and Su Yue had just returned from outside with Chen Qiu.

So he moved his chair slightly, moved it next to Su Yue, covered his mouth and asked in a low voice.

"Chief Su Yue, what happened to you guys outside just now? Why does it seem like Chen Qiu is under a lot of pressure to command him? He has become so serious?"

"nothing."

Su Yue looked at him calmly and spoke lightly.

"It's just because I ran into Yu Tu outside."

"Yu Tu?"

When Le Fu heard Su Yue's words, he almost couldn't hold back.

He quickly covered his mouth, fearing that his loud voice would attract the attention of others around him.

He asked quickly in a low voice.

"No, what's going on? Why did Yu Tu suddenly show up? Isn't Commander Yu Tu in the capital? What is he doing in Haicheng?"

"Maybe, just coming to listen to our concert?"

Su Yue thought about it and spoke with a hint of speculation.

She glanced at Yuefu beside her and said casually.

"It is said that this time, in addition to the normal audience, top conductors from all over the country and those top musicians will come to listen to our performance."

"No, all?" Lefu's eyes widened.

Although he knew that the Harmony Symphony Orchestra might be quite famous in the country recently, he never imagined that their Harmony Symphony Orchestra could actually... attract so many people.

he asked quickly.

"No, aren't those people from the symphony orchestra at work? I remember that the New Year's concert just ended recently, so shouldn't they have started preparing for the next performance? Why are they all suddenly here?"

"Who knows?"

Su Yue spoke lightly.

She picked up the clarinet in her hand, and it was obvious that she didn't intend to pay much attention to the music next to her. She was ready to continue practicing.

And Yuefu continued to be immersed in shock and unable to extricate himself.

His shock soon affected the state of other people around him.

It's hard to keep things secret in an orchestra, especially about performances.

Unless you really don't care about anything, you can eat enough melon every day.

Everyone just asked each other and soon found out what had just happened.

Yu Tu, with his China Symphony Orchestra, came to listen to the concert of their Harmony Symphony Orchestra.

Not only that, it is said that the Hangzhou Symphony Orchestra next door will also be coming.

The same is true for the Guicheng Symphony Orchestra, which is also a rising star.

In addition to them, the same is true for those from the China National Theater Symphony Orchestra.

You could even say that the Harmony Symphony Orchestra's performance last year put it directly in the top five in China, shaking up the entire Chinese music community.

These are just some of the bands; the music critics outside the band system are even crazier.

It is said that all the top-ranking music critics from China have come here.

Even some foreign music critics feel the same way.

The attention of the music world across the country and even the world was completely focused on the Harmony Symphony Orchestra.

Everyone wants to come and listen to the Harmony Symphony Orchestra to see if it deserves the fifth place in China.

Is it worthy of being ranked among the top 15 symphony orchestras in Asia and the top 100 in the world?

So many top bosses and so much pressure made everyone feel a little headache, and the pressure suddenly surged into their hearts.

To be honest, although they guessed that some people would come to listen to their performance, they didn't expect there would be so many.

This performance is more than just a performance to give back to their fans.

This has become the coronation battle of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra.

If there is nothing wrong with their performance this time.

Then they will officially step into the battle of the world's top symphony orchestras.

If their performance does not live up to their rank, they will be hung on the pillar of shame.

Then the problem is coming...

What kind of performance should the top 100 symphony orchestras in the world give?

They suddenly realized that they were no longer just simple symphony orchestra musicians.

They are a group of veteran musicians who followed Chen Qiu and turned a little-known orchestra into one of the top 100 symphony orchestras in the world.

If viewed from other people's perspective, they can definitely be considered successful!

but……

They haven't felt anything at all!

They began to compare their imagined performance of the top 100 in the world with their current performance, and then made a sad discovery.

I don’t seem to deserve the title of top 100 in the world.

The global top 100 that they imagine seems to be stronger than their current performance.

For a moment, the entire orchestra fell into a low mood.

Even though there was Qin Xian for string instruments and Su Yue for wind instruments, and everything was supported by the above, the pressure still came upon everyone.

Qin Xian has never been good at talking.

When he felt the low pressure around him, he obviously wanted to say something or do something, but after thinking about it, he had no idea what he should do.

This is even more true for Su Yue next door.

She absolutely didn't want to give any attention to those low-pressure people.

She just wanted to rehearse her part well.

The atmosphere in the entire orchestra became a little bad.

And even Li Miaomiao could feel how terrible it was.

Li Miaomiao had just come back from working outside, and she was going to ask Qin Xian if he wanted to drink some water or take a rest.

But no one would have thought that the orchestra would suddenly become autistic during rehearsal?

She glanced at Qin Xian, then at Chen Qiu, thought about it, and came to Chen Qiu.

She planned to ask Chen Qiu what he was going to do.

After all, she knew very well that Qin Xian was not the kind of person who could inspire others.

But when she came to Chen Qiu, Chen Qiu didn't move at all. He just sat there.

Watching everyone rehearsing.

Watching everyone fall into self-doubt.

Not only that, he couldn't help but even raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.

Chen Qiu...

Is he laughing?
Although the smile was not particularly obvious, Li Miaomiao was very close to Chen Qiu, and she could clearly see the smile on the corner of Chen Qiu's mouth.

Why did Chen Qiu suddenly laugh?

Li Miaomiao is not sure.

But she is clearer now.

She didn't need to remind Chen Qiu.

Chen Qiu seemed to be able to handle everything with ease.

Could this kind of emotion be what Chen Qiu wants now?
Li Miaomiao placed a bottle of Nongfu Spring next to Chen Qiu, said nothing, turned around and sat next to Qin Xian, staring at Qin Xian.

She just looked at Qin Xian calmly, watching Qin Xian's performance without saying a word.

During the break in rehearsal, Qin Xian gave her a helpless look, and then signaled her with his eyes to ask Chen Qiu what to do about the orchestra's current situation.

In response, Li Miaomiao just shook her head and continued to sit there.

Although she has a good relationship with Qin Xian, but... she believes in Chen Qiu.

After all, Chen Qiu is the real core of the band.

……

The orchestra rehearsed the entire piece in a low-pressure state under Chen Qiu's deliberate indulgence.

until noon.

The orchestra specially prepared a slightly luxurious lunch box with three meat and three vegetable dishes, but no one was particularly happy eating it.

They simply took a few bites, ate as little as possible and then continued to practice their own part.

Adapt yourself to the orchestra and the concert hall.

Be able to prepare for subsequent performances in the best condition.

When the orchestra was rehearsing, they even looked at Chen Qiu expectantly, to see if Chen Qiu could say something that would give them some confidence.

but……

But Chen Qiu didn't.

It was as if he had given up, allowing everyone to continue to immerse themselves in this slightly sad and desperate atmosphere.

Time passes minute by minute.

Everyone discovered in despair.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon, the orchestra's rehearsal was over, and Chen Qiu didn't say anything.

Just let everyone tidy up a little, find a place to rest, and then put on makeup if necessary and eat if necessary.

no……

What exactly is Commander Chen Qiu doing?
Everyone was a little confused for a moment.

They didn't know what Chen Qiu was trying to do.

Only Qin Xian, Su Yue and others gradually understood Chen Qiu's thoughts.

They looked at each other and after confirming that they seemed to be together, they didn't say much and fell into silence.

They began to reduce the help they gave to other members of the orchestra.

To make everyone in the band as independent as possible.

of course.

Their goal is certainly not to make everyone independent.

If everyone is independent, then there will be nothing worth listening to in music.

All they did was just to make everyone feel lonely and desperate.

Feel the candle flame about to go out.

They probably understood Chen Qiu's thoughts.

It is clear.

Chen Qiu is very clear that if the band continues at its current level, although they can consistently perform in the top 100 in the world, the audience will certainly not be convinced because of the raised expectations.

If they want to show enough strength, they must perform far beyond the top 100.

Maybe top 80, maybe top 50, or even higher.

Although Su Yue has joined the band, because they have only had a short time to rehearse, the integration among the group is not particularly strong.

Therefore, if everyone wants to show their superb level, they only have one chance.

That was the scene.

Because no one knows what the scene is like.

If rehearsal is the lower limit of the orchestra, then live performance is the upper limit of the orchestra.

Chen Qiu led everyone to raise the lower limit to the level of the top 100 in the world, so how high will the upper limit of the band be?
Chen Qiu didn't know.

So he decided to take a chance and give it a try.

If you just conduct the orchestra with all your strength during a performance, it might improve a little, but only a little at most.

However, if we suppress everyone's emotions, let them feel depressed, and integrate them into the music...

It's a bit inhumane, but it's true.

There are only two results.

Either explode in silence or perish in silence.

So will their band explode or perish?

No one knows.

No one knows.

Including Chen Qiu.

If it were someone else's conductor, they might just be on the safe side and ask the orchestra to try a little harder and perform at a level around 80 to meet the audience's expectations.

But Chen Qiu, he won’t.

Even though the danger might be high, he sensed an opportunity.

He sensed an opportunity for the band to soar.

So he decided to give it a try.

Therefore, he began to suppress everyone's breath, making them feel scared and terrified.

Compressing everyone's emotions into a taut longbow.

then……

Shoot it out hard!

Everyone was making final preparations before the performance with heavy hearts.

People at the Haicheng Symphony Orchestra Concert Hall began to let people in.

Dense crowds of audiences poured into the concert hall, whispering to each other and discussing tonight's performance.

During the day, Yu Tu went to talk to several conductors from Haicheng. After making them slightly angry, he returned to the concert hall with a smile on his face.

He didn't sit with anyone.

He just sat alone in the corner, closed his eyes, and a smile appeared on his lips.

He was waiting for the concert to begin.

Time passes minute by minute.

The concert hall gradually became quiet.

Everyone gathered at the backstage door, their eyes showing worry.

Under everyone's gaze, Chen Qiu walked in front of everyone.

He watched calmly with everyone.

This time, he did not say anything encouraging, but just nodded slightly and spoke slowly.

"Let's go, get on stage, and let them hear the voice of harmony!"
