My girlfriend is a cellist

Chapter 411 Cole Cup, March!

Le Yun, in the music classroom.

Lin Tian, ​​Gan Yanyu and He Zhichen sat in front of the computer.

On the mobile phone screen nearby, Gan Hua, who was recuperating in the hospital, was making a video call with several people.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

According to the time difference in Europe, the International Music Federation will officially announce the invitation list for the Kerr Cup at around 1 a.m.

This invitation list is directly sent to the Tianchao Music Association, which will pass the invitation letters to the contestants. At the same time, the contestants will also receive an official email a few hours later.

What is certain at the moment is that Nanali, the champion of the Longqin Cup, will definitely be on the invitation list.

But at the same time, the widely circulated news indicates that in addition to Nanali, there will be an additional Chinese pianist on the list!

As for who this person is, we will have to wait for the official list soon!
It was originally just a result announcement session with no suspense and just a formality.

However, because of the emergence of this new quota, this link suddenly attracted the attention of many people.

……

now,

The Chinese Music Association, university professors, scholars from various music circles, and all the pianists who participated in the Longqin Cup.

Half of the music industry's talented people are now sitting in front of their computers, paying close attention to this upcoming list.

Even before the competition, this year's Kerr Cup, which produced many talented people, had been regarded by the circle as "the most promising year for Chinese cello" and received unanimous attention from the outside world. It was believed that this was not only an opportunity for cello to go global, but also an opportunity for all Chinese performers to become famous!

Its meaning is self-evident to people.

therefore,

The board of directors of the Chinese Musicians Association held a small online meeting.

A group of young directors of the association were already engaged in an intense discussion.

"According to the rankings, Bai Junze, who ranked second in the finals, should have the best chance."

In front of the camera, composer and board member Tang Yu expressed his views.

"It's just that Bai Junze's personal style is too strong, which makes his performance unstable."

"I agree. I think it would be a more appropriate decision to let Mr. Maozi go."

Another council member said the same thing, but was quickly refuted by another person:
“Although Mr. Maozi is extremely talented, he has only come to prominence this year after all. He lacks major competition experience and may not be able to perform at his full potential on the international stage.”

This is not uncommon in the music industry.

Some young people are talented at a young age and shine on various stages.

But it really comes to a world-class stage, especially a place like the Golden Hall.

The shortcomings of being young, inexperienced, and unsettled will all be revealed. It is not easy to perform at your usual level.

"Actually, I think Bai Xi is not bad either."

Another composer said.

In some aspects, Bai Xi's performance may not be amazing enough, but his strength is definitely quite stable, and sometimes he even has a breakthrough performance.

She can also be recognized by most people when she represents the Celestial Empire in the war.

".So, who is it?"

After a rational discussion, Tang Yu made an anguished sound.

In fact, this online meeting was held to ease everyone's tension.

Faced with such a complicated situation in this year's Longqin Cup, everyone felt extremely conflicted.

Since this newly added spot was a direct invitation from the Kerr Cup Organizing Committee, the Chinese Music Association has no right of recommendation, so everyone is in a very passive situation.

But in any case, it's a good thing to send one more representative.

Although everyone was very confused during the discussion, in fact, no matter who replaced the players just discussed, they could accept it.
"Come out, come out!"

At this time, someone shouted in the online meeting.

Everyone quickly looked at the computer screen.

The public email from the International Musicians Association was opened——

For a time,

The air froze.

Everyone looked at the big screen in disbelief.

"Are you kidding?" Tang Yu exclaimed.

at the same time,

The other end.

In the last few minutes of waiting for the result, Gan Yanyu held Lin Tian's hand tightly.

The boy could clearly feel the sweat in the girl's hands.

Lin Tian placed his other hand on the back of Gan Yanyu's hand.

The girl raised her head, and Lin Tian smiled and said,
"It's okay, let's just watch the fun."

Even though Grandpa Gan had said that with great confidence before, Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu still kept a calm attitude.

for them,

This spot isn't that important, really.

They had already made up their mind in the ward that day.

No matter how many years pass, they will continue to fight and never give up.

So, just keep a normal mind.

"Ah."

Gan Yanyu nodded.

At this moment, with the refresh of the webpage, new information appeared in the lower right corner of the official website of the Chinese Musicians Association.

The Kerr Cup roster has been announced!

He Zhichen quickly clicked the mouse and entered the web page.

The moment he saw the list, He Zhichen was the first one to open his mouth wide.

"real or fake."

in the list,
Below [Nunali].

The three-character name attracts attention——

【Gan Yanyu】.

Although I have imagined this result countless times in my mind, I was still quite shocked when I actually saw this name.

Even Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu couldn't help but take a deep breath, unable to believe their eyes.

"What the master said was right."

Lin Tian couldn't help but complain.

No, can you go to the Kerr Cup even if you give up the finals?
Can you get into Tsinghua University even if you hand in a blank exam paper?!
“It’s something that’s expected.”

During the video call, Gan Hua was much calmer than Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu, as if he had guessed the result long ago.

The old man lowered his head and sighed, as if he was brewing some emotions.

Looking up again, Gan Hua looked into the eyes of the two young people:

"Go ahead and bring your music to the world!"

“This is what the International Music Association wants to see.”

"Listen, Gan Yanyu."

A few minutes later, Nanali called.
"You want to escape? There's no way!"

Nunnally said with a hint of pride in her tone, and then she gritted her teeth and said,

"I got this spot for you."

"Even if you have to crawl, crawl all the way to Vienna!"

Nunnally said loudly,
"Cheer up! Our duel isn't over yet!"

"Let's play again in the Kerr Cup!"

Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu hung up the phone in confusion.

Am I right?
Lin Tian was a little amused and helpless.

Nunnally's words.

It seemed that she won the Longqin Cup championship for Gan Yanyu.

Given her style, it seems like it's something she could do.

the other side,
Inside the office.

Yao Han put down the cup of water, his expression seemed much more relaxed. It was obvious that he had just gone through a roller coaster of emotions.

“They advanced.”

He Shumo said.

The scholar raised his head and looked at the tall buildings outside the window.

I was filled with emotion, "It's God's will."

“After a lot of twists and turns, I finally made it to the Kerr Cup.”

He Shumo's mood was complicated. He couldn't tell whether he was relieved or sad.

But one thing is for sure.

Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu deserve this result.

"The International Music Association probably wants to see how powerful these two young people are who dared to abandon the Dragon Qin Cup finals."

Yao Han said.

He stared at the water cup, recalling Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu's "Ode to Love" in his mind.

Now, with this kind of relationship, what kind of music will they bring to the Cole Cup?

The International Music Association is still of a high level and cannot be compared with these old guys in China.

They could indeed see that Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu were gold.

Unconsciously, Yao Han sneered.

This sneer made He Shumo feel physically uncomfortable.

He turned his head and looked at Yao Han.

"They finally walked down that path, the path of those old men."

When Yao Han said this, a rare sensibility appeared in his eyes.

At the same time, it is also the place that my brother could not reach back then.

Within an hour of the results being announced.

The association is already in chaos.

No one would have thought that the contestants who gave up and ranked 2-10 would eventually be invited by the International Music Association to be the contestants who gave up the competition with a score of 0 in the final.

And this player has always been the most controversial one.

——Gan Yanyu.

Seeing this name now, many people are really going to have PTSD.

Why did they really let her go to the Cole Cup?!

She didn’t even participate in the finals, so how could she go to the Kerr Cup?
What if they forfeit the Cole Cup again?

Soon, many old men who usually wore suits and ties started arguing and talking about this.

Among them, trace its roots.

The biggest war criminal obviously came from the semi-finals, and he was not nipped in the bud at that time.

For a time, Tuoba Jianhui, who was highly respected in the music industry, became the target of public criticism.

Some radical young musicians went directly to the classroom of Tianchao University of Music and bombarded Tuoba Jianhui.

But Tuoba Jianhui no longer cared about these things.

He simply took several days off, wore a bathrobe, and lay in a rocking chair on his balcony to enjoy the cool air, looking cheerful all day long.

He looks carefree and relaxed, and doesn't care about any insults at all.

It was as if he had seen the future he longed for.

The scene returns to Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu.

Sitting in front of the computer, the two boys and girls couldn't suppress their excitement.

But after a brief adjustment, the excitement quickly returned to normal.

At this moment, for them.

Now that I have got the ticket to the Cole Cup.

Now, there is nothing else to think about.

Long before the result came out, the two began preparing for the battle at the suggestion of Grandpa Gan, and they did not slack off in practice for a single day!

Now, it is just a matter of convenience for them.

Get ready to sprint!
"I told you before that although you have fully mastered the ability to perform classical music, you still lack a very important condition if you want to make classical music famous in the world, right?"

Two days later in the music classroom, Gan Hua, sitting in a wheelchair, tapped the crutches in his hand and said.

"Correct."

Lin Tian nodded.

When Gan Hua told them about this, he was already very puzzled.

If their playing ability is recognized so highly, is there any skill that they have not mastered?

Even if Lin Tian himself really has some problems, it is unlikely that Gan Yanyu will have the same problem.

You've been the one who raised this girl since she was a child, don't you know that?

Facing Lin Tian's question, Mr. Gan did not rush to answer, but instead asked,

"Let me ask you a question first. What kind of mood are you in when you create now?"

Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu were both stunned.

Lin Tian thought about it and it was easier for him to answer.

“To win, to create works that more people will recognize.”

This has always been Lin Tian’s main creative motivation.

It’s not that complicated, most of the time, he goes there just to win!
Of course, we also have to consider the degree of popularity and whether it can allow more people to gain something from the music, and he will also cater to music fans appropriately.

In fact, Lin Tian’s thinking is a typical commercial author’s thinking.

This is normal, after all, they started out as internet celebrities.

"."

Gan Yanyu spent a little longer thinking about this problem.

“Because I want everyone to hear these excellent works, I work extra hard to practice and perform them.”

Gan Yanyu said seriously.

There is another small reason that Gan Yanyu did not say more directly.

The premise of “excellent works” is that these songs were composed by Lin Tian.

Because they were created by Lin Tian, ​​Gan Yanyu would work harder to create them.

Even if she couldn't find the right emotion, racked her brains, and failed many times, Gan Yanyu would continue to practice and never thought of giving up.

"very good."

Gan Hua said,

“There is nothing wrong with your mentality when it comes to composition, but in my opinion, you are still lacking a very important quality when it comes to classical music.”

"What?" Lin Tian asked cooperatively.

“Respect for classical music.”

Gan Hua said word by word.

"Respect?"

Now Lin Tian is really a bit mysterious.

He could probably sense what Gan Hua meant, but the problem was.
Is this important?

What does the mindset I have when creating have to do with how I shine on stage?
Isn’t it enough to have the ability?

“Classical music is not that simple. If you only pursue it with a utilitarian or playful mindset, you will not be able to bring it to the world.”

Gan Hua said this with such certainty, speaking with the tone of someone who has experienced it.

In the past, Gan Yanyu, under the guidance of Gan Hua, possessed such qualities.

However, perhaps due to the influence of emotions, at least now, in their ensemble, Gan Hua feels far inferior to before.

"There will be a teacher to teach you about this, why it is important, and how to find a solution. You need to figure it out on your own."

"Who?"

"Of course it's your dean."

The dean here - obviously, refers to Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu, and now the real university teacher in name only, Tuoba Jianhui.

Do you want to ask him for teaching?
Lin Tian was instinctively a little reluctant, but since Uncle Gan said so, it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

"Then go back and rest early today, because you have his class tomorrow morning."

"it is good."

After saying goodbye, Lin Tian was the first to leave the classroom.

At this moment, Gan Yanyu did not follow Lin Tian immediately, but took the initiative to come to his grandfather.

"Grandpa, I want to ask you a favor in secret."

Gan Yanyu said softly, then turned her head to look at Lin Tian's leaving back.

“Can you teach me how to compose music?”
