The world's number one pianist

He Shen went back, and the competition was over for him.

Therefore, he no longer needed to practice the piano so intensely every day, and his whole mind was on the piano.

All he had to do now was to practice every day to ensure his condition, and then take a short break.

Enjoy life in Europe.

After all, since he came to Poland and stayed here for so long, he really had never gone out.

His daily activities were to find a small forest or garden nearby, stay in it to drink coffee and be in a daze.

After drinking, he went to practice the piano.

It was like this every day.

Now, everything is over, except that there are still some people who need to play later, there is nothing else to do.

For a while, the whole body is relaxed.

Now He Shen, after practicing the piano for three hours every day during the day, wanders around Warsaw and enjoys the scenery of Warsaw.

Zhao Zitong and Ji Mengting followed He Shen happily after he finished practicing.

When it was night, He Shen would return to the Warsaw Chopin Philharmonic Hall, use his identity card as a contestant, find a place near the corner, and watch other people's performances with an appreciative look.

Guess the result of the competition from your own perspective.

It has to be said that the contestants of this session are basically very distinctive and very strong.

For example, on the second day, Kyohei Fantian's extremely sweet performance was basically beyond the reach of other contestants.

The whole person seemed to be stuck in a honey pot.

Those who like sweet Chopin will naturally like his performance.

And for some audiences who don't like this kind of sweet Chopin, but like a more normal Chopin full of patriotic feelings.

Kyohei Fantian's performance seemed too artificial and uncomfortable.

But no matter what, Kyohei Fantian's strength was basically the second on that day.

Why it ranks second? The reason is very simple...

Alexander started to exert himself from the third round. As a player who is almost close to the level of Liu Yu and He Shen, he still retained his extremely strong strength in this round.

His style is quite different from that of Kyohei Fantian. It is not particularly sweet, but has a hint of seriousness and softness.

This feeling makes those who are sweetened by Kyohei Fantian feel as comfortable as drinking a cup of coffee.

It's like eating macarons alone will feel sweet, and drinking coffee or English tea alone will feel bitter.

Drinking coffee and eating macarons can easily alleviate the extreme taste of the two.

Let the audience get a little relief.

This is the biggest advantage of Alexander playing after Kyohei Fantian!

If Alexander played before Kyohei Fantian, it might not be so amazing.

This can only be said that the staff of the Chopin International Piano Competition did not analyze the styles of some players before the competition, which led to this not particularly reasonable arrangement.

But the competition is a competition after all, and every player has to accept various accidents.

Everything will not go according to the ideas of each player.

It is precisely because of this that Alexander was slightly better than Tada Kyohei during the competition.

If the score is taken into account, it is entirely possible that Alexander's score is slightly higher than Tada Kyohei's.

On the third day, it was even more of a battle between gods.

Liu Yu, whose score had been biting He Shen, was still extremely amazing in this round.

His Chopin First Piano Concerto was extremely stable when interpreting the music, making it difficult to find any mistakes.

And it was precisely because of this stability that his performance showed an extremely perfect state among the crowd.

If expressed in data, his level is basically LV10 close to the peak.

The overall performance is not particularly sweet, nor does it appear particularly serious. Everything is just right.

Just the right emotions, just the right personality, just the right performance...

Everything is very consistent with the ideas of the judges.

If there was no pervert He Shen in this competition, no special supermodel He Shen.

He could definitely get the first place in this competition.

After all, the few performances he lost in the first three rounds were all because of He Shen.

In the first round, he was only one point behind He Shen.

In the third round, he ranked second.

Not to mention the fourth round, which was the final round.

When he heard He Shen's performance in the final round, he basically gave up.

He Shen's strength was really too strong, so strong that he could not find any chance to confront He Shen head-on.

Or to say, to surpass He Shen.

He is only in his twenties now, and to those piano masters, he is just a child.

Although he played very well, he was asked to play a god-level live, perfect performance that only those piano masters have the opportunity to play.

This is too difficult for him...

If everyone is so deep, why worry about the decline of classical music?

Therefore, he gave up the idea of ​​competing with He Shen and focused on showing his own level.

This competition is nominally to find the strongest Chopin player of the new generation.

But in the final analysis, put aside all the gorgeous clothes, this is an ordinary draft.

It's similar to those Chinese good voices, it's just a talent show.

Let’s show those top companies who is the strongest in the new generation.

Find him and invest in him.

That's all.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Yu gave up all competition with He Shen in the finals, and his performance actually became better.

He Shen sat in the distance and looked at Liu Yu, and couldn't help but nodded slightly.

Liu Yu was really good at being able to keep biting him and following him closely.

He has talent himself and has been working hard for the Chopin International Piano Competition since he was a child. His teachers are also among the top piano teachers in the world.

If this kind of person does not exist, then there is no surprise that he can win the championship.

Behind Liu Yu, Martin's interpretation of the piano concerto was not inferior to Liu Yu's, nor was he worthy of his previous performances.

Still very eye-catching!

Not to mention other players, basically there is no particularly big gap between them and Liu Yu.

Even the weakest players, under the pressure of He Shen and Liu Yu, all broke through to the level 10 threshold.

He Shen looked at the performances of those players, touched his chin, and said nothing.

Soon, all the players finished playing. After the last player left the keyboard, everyone stood up and gave applause to the last player, or in other words, to all the players.

Thanks to them for the musical feast they gave them these three days!

He Shen straightened his clothes a little, turned and left the concert hall.

And just when he left the concert hall, the staff was already waiting at the door. The moment they saw He Shen, they walked towards He Shen and bowed slightly to him.

"Hello, He, please wait a moment. The final result of the competition will appear shortly. Please wait in the lobby first."

He Shen looked at the staff in front of him, nodded slightly, and walked towards the hall downstairs of the concert hall.

At this moment, under the concert hall, arrangements have been made in advance.

Countless media workers are already standing there, with all kinds of long guns and short guns occupying almost all positions.

Also standing there were the players from the previous few days, including Rao Hao, Tanda Kyohei, Kobayashi Aimi, EVA and others.

Everyone stood there, chatting casually with each other, waiting for the final result to appear.

Some of the more experienced people, such as Kyohei Tanda and Alexander, had very relaxed expressions on their faces.

Obviously, they have received invitations from certain brokerage companies in advance, and can then carry out music activities with the backing of those brokerage companies.

Although some other people were chatting, it was obvious that they were nervous inside.

I am nervous about whether I can get a certain ranking.

Even Rao Hao is like this.

He felt he performed pretty well in the finals.

Although it is definitely not as good as He Shen and cannot win the championship in the finals, who knows?

Maybe, right?

Maybe you can get a ranking?

If you don’t pursue first and second place, why not pursue sixth place?

In other words, pursuing an excellence award?

Rao Hao looked at the cameras around him and couldn't help squeezing his hands, trying to relax a little.

Unfortunately, it's not of much use.

Just when he was about to go to the toilet to take a deep breath and relax, he suddenly spotted He Shen, his eyes immediately lit up, he walked quickly towards He Shen and said to him.

"Teacher He, you are here!"

"Well, you played well." He Shen nodded slightly to Rao Hao and said while looking at everything around him.

"In this performance, you showed your personal style to the fullest. You are obviously different from other players. You can impress some judges very deeply. If you are lucky, you may still get a ranking."

"Hey, is it true?" Rao Hao scratched his head in embarrassment: "Actually, I'm not that good either."

"You can look forward to it a little bit, after all, the faction competition this year is quite fierce."

He Shen reached out and patted Rao Hao on the shoulder, then walked towards the large army.

Without any hesitation, Rao Hao immediately followed He Shen towards the group of performers.

People in each place are relatively close to people in each place, forming several small groups as a whole.

When Tanda Kyohei saw He Shen coming, he immediately took two steps forward and spoke to He Shen in Japanese English without much Japanese accent.

"Congratulations, He, your performance this time is great. I like your performance very much!"

Kobayashi Aimi followed Tanda Kyohei and saw He Shen. Although she was a little afraid, she still took a step forward and bowed slightly to He Shen.

"He, congratulations, you will definitely get an ideal ranking this time!"

He Shen looked at the two people, smiled, and didn't say much. He just nodded slightly and said thank you lightly.

And with the appearance of these two people from Japan, people from other places also walked towards He Shen, praising and congratulating He Shen.

They are not deaf, they can all hear how well He Shen played in the finals.

Not only that, but He Shen almost crushed everyone in every round in the previous performances.

If this kind of person doesn't win the championship, they can't say anything!

Rao Hao stood behind He Shen, looking at the people around him who congratulated He Shen, and couldn't help showing a trace of envy.

If, if he could also stand among everyone like He Shen and accept everyone's congratulations, how great it would be!

Liu Yu walked down the stairs slowly and looked at He Shen in the crowd with complicated eyes.

After standing on the stairs in silence for a long time, he finally sighed, walked in front of He Shen, smiled and stretched out his hand, and said to He Shen in the most relaxed tone possible.

"Congratulations!"

He Shen turned his head to look at Liu Yu in front of him, looked at the hand he stretched out, and did not refuse.

He Shen shook Liu Yu's hand and replied very seriously.

"Thank you!"

The two men's hands touched and then loosened. Liu Yu returned to his Maple Leaf Country and the Beautiful Country camp and chatted with others casually.

And He Shen also found a place to stand and wait for the final result.

The crowd did not wait for long, and a large group of judges walked down the stairs.

The chairman and secretary of the Chopin International Piano Competition Organizing Committee were in the front.

Standing beside them were Argerich, Deng Songshan, Chen Sa and others.

They did not look at He Shen, and tried their best to ensure that their eyes did not look at any contestant.

The chairman of the Chopin International Piano Competition walked in front of the crowd, stood on the stage that had been set up in advance, picked up the card in his hand, smiled at everyone, and spoke.

"Are you all impatient? After all, this is the final result of the Chopin International Piano Competition, the most influential result among the four major piano competitions in the world!"

"Of course, there may be a little bit of self-praise in this, but we have to admit that among all the piano works, the most difficult to interpret, besides Mozart, is Chopin!"

"Mozart is difficult to interpret because his psychological age is relatively young, and the performer needs to fill a seemingly mature soul in an extremely childish shell, which requires very, very high requirements for music!"

"But Chopin is different. He needs to be very, very precise in his grasp of the performer's emotions! Finding the context of the music with great precision and interpreting Chopin's thoughts in the music is the most difficult part of Chopin."

"So, this is why the Chopin Piano Competition can become the world's top piano competition and constantly supply fresh blood to the classical music world!"

"..."

The chairman of the organizing committee said a lot in front of everyone, and just when everyone was about to get impatient, he immediately turned the topic back.

"Now, we finally welcome the strongest contestant this year, who has been decided by countless judges!"

"First of all, the best work award, the best Chopin piano sonata, Alexander Gagiev! Italy"

"Best Chopin Mazurka, Jakub Kuszlik, Poland"

"Best Piano Concerto, He Shen, China!"

These bests did not arouse the interest of the crowd. This is just a simple reference to the final result of the competition.

After all, in this competition, what everyone is most looking forward to is the result of the competition.

After the host read out the three bests, without any hesitation, he immediately read out the final ranking of the competition.

"Sixth place, Japan, Aimi Kobayashi, Kobayashi Aimi!"

Kobayashi Aimi was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes suddenly lit up, looking at the others around her in disbelief.

She actually got the sixth place?

She actually got the sixth place under He Shen's pursuit and interception?

Looking at the friendly eyes of the crowd, she immediately walked to the chairman of the committee and took her own certificate from his hand.

The applause of the crowd immediately rang out.

Last time, Kobayashi Aishi got a place in the finals, but unfortunately she didn't make it to the last few.

This time, Kobayashi Aishi has been meeting He Shen, and has been behind He Shen, suppressed by He Shen, and can't find any opportunity to perform.

If her own strength is not strong enough, she will definitely be eliminated in the first few rounds.

And now, she can get the sixth place in such a harsh situation, which makes all the onlookers amazed.

If, if there is no He Shen, what place might she enter?

Kobayashi Aishi took her medal and quickly returned to the crowd of contestants, smiling and accepting congratulations from others.

After everyone was a little quiet, the host immediately read out the fifth place to others.

"Fifth place, Martin Garcia Garcia, Martin Garcia Garcia! Spain!"

Martin, who had been in the first echelon and was ready to compete with He Shen for the first place, finally only got the fifth place.

He looked at the people around him, shrugged his shoulders helplessly, walked to the chairman of the committee easily, and took the certificate and medal from him.

For him, he had never had a head-on collision with He Shen, and only got fifth place, which was really a bit low.

But no matter what, he couldn't take the award with a bitter face.

The top six in the Xiao race are more valuable than the top six in other races.

Therefore, he could only take it all with a smile and start preparing for other races.

The chairman of the organizing committee didn't care about Martin's expression. He reached out and took out the next chapter list. He showed an extremely exaggerated look of surprise on his face and spoke to everyone in a curious tone.

"Next, it's not the fourth place, but the third place!"

"It's just that this third place is not one person, but... two people!"

"Let us congratulate the contestant from Japan, Kyohei Sorita, and the contestant from Italy, Alexander Gadjiev!"

The applause oven, Kyohei Sorita and Alexander looked at each other and smiled.

This ranking is very good, at least they are all third, and no one is fourth.

This result is very good for them.

Especially when there are two perverts in front, it is really very good to get this ranking.

The two walked forward, took the medals awarded by the chairman of the organizing committee, and returned to their original place.

Everyone focused their attention on He Shen and Liu Yu.

Now everyone knows that the champion will definitely come from the two of them.

And He Shen's chance is as high as more than 90%!

But the winner has not been announced yet, maybe the organizing committee wants to commit a taboo and give Liu Yu the championship?

Therefore, everyone looked at Liu Yu and He Shen, waiting for the result.

Without disappointing anyone, the organizing committee members handed the list in their hands to Deng Songshan and Argerich, asking them to read out the names of their respective players.

"Second place, Maple Leaf Country, Yu (Bruce) Liu Yu (Bruce) Liu"

"First place, China, He Shen, Shen He!"

Boom!

With the appearance of the first place, the applause almost lifted the whole house.

Everyone was clapping hard, giving their greatest respect to this champion who everyone had already decided.

From the first round, he showed himself in front of everyone with an extremely powerful attitude.

This is He Shen!

This is the first place winner of this year's Chopin International Piano Competition!

Liu Yu looked at the award in his hand, which was awarded by his teacher, and was a little disappointed, but he still stood up and said to He Shen again.

"Congratulations."

He Shen smiled and replied softly: "Thank you"

Argerich looked at He Shen with a smile on his face, and patted He Shen on the shoulder.

"Congratulations, you should have successfully obtained invitations from other music agencies now, which proves that you have officially become a professional pianist from an ordinary music lover!"

"I won't interfere too much with your personal thoughts, but I still want to remind you."

"Now this is the best opportunity, an opportunity to settle down!"

"When you win the Chopin International Piano Competition, the biggest advantage is not to become a professional musician, but you will have the power to choose!"

"You can find the most powerful piano teachers in the world, those who have already settled down, to learn from their experience, and learn from them , continue to study music. "

"The Chopin International Piano Competition is just the beginning. This is the beginning of your musical career. I don't want you to fall. "

"So, I hope you can continue to study music and lay a deeper foundation for your musical life!"

"I hope you can do it!"

"I hope that I can see you continue to overcome difficulties in the field of music and walk out a path of your own in the future!"

The cheers around continued. Argerich reached out and patted He Shen on the back. He took two steps back, waved slightly to He Shen, and then turned and left, disappearing into the crowd.

He Shen looked at the medal in his hand and looked at Argerich who was going away, and didn't say anything.

Settling down?

Indeed, I need to settle down.

If you count it all, what I have now is only Chopin.

It is impossible for Chopin to conquer the world directly.

And the system can't help me for a lifetime.

In addition, the amount of repertoire that can't be interpreted perfectly a few times a year is added.

The most important thing for me now is to find a good teacher, take a short break, and let everything I have gained in a competition settle down.

Then, with this extremely rich foundation, I will officially fight on the world stage.

He Shen looked at the people in front of him and couldn't help but smile. He felt extremely relaxed.

In the corner of his eye, the system's task bar kept flashing.
