My girlfriend is a cellist

"grandfather.?"

After seeing Gan Hua, Gan Yanyu widened his eyes slightly and made a surprised sound.

Lin Tian, ​​who was standing aside, had expected this in his heart, but he was still shocked by the aura of Mr. Gan in front of him.

"Let us compete with you!" Tuoba Jianhui put his arm around Gan Hua's shoulder and said with a smile.

"."

Indeed, I should have guessed it earlier.

There are tens of thousands of cellists in China, but not many are of the same generation as Tuoba Jianhui, and even fewer can match Tuoba Jianhui's performance skills.

And there are only a few cellists who can compete head-on with Gan Yanyu.

Gan Hua, Gan Yanyu's grandfather.

Obviously, he is the most suitable candidate.

The reason why Gan Yanyu was so shocked.

Because she couldn't imagine it anyway.

My own grandfather, one day, will actually pick up the bow again.
"Are you alright?" Lin Tian looked at Gan Hua with some concern. He was sitting in a wheelchair just a few days ago.
Isn't this an intentional act?!
Are you really a man who is so cunning even towards two juniors??!

Lin Tian complained in his heart, but Gan Hua coughed twice:
“I just got out of the wheelchair yesterday. Although I haven’t fully recovered yet, I should have no problem playing.”

After saying that, Gan Hua looked at Gan Yanyu seriously:
"What's wrong, Yu'er?"

"."

Gan Yanyu fell silent, with a slight struggle revealed on her fair face.

after all,

She was totally unprepared.

Now I suddenly know that I have to fight against my grandfather.
The person in front of her is not only her grandfather, but also her cello teacher.

Instinctively, the girl took a step back.

However, while taking a half step back, he bumped into Lin Tian's chest.

Turning around, I saw Lin Tian’s reassuring smile.

"Hasn't this kind of thing been expected?"

Lin Tian held Gan Yanyu's shoulders, then looked at the two old men with a slightly provocative look.
"They are just two semi-retired old men. If they dare to challenge the Kerr Cup players and don't want to lose face, we will help them."

As soon as these words were spoken, a group of students watching outside the classroom were shocked and became excited.

"Oh my god, Lin Tian is so brave!!"

"As expected of an idol, he actually dared to speak to Dean Tuoba like that. My legs would start shaking if it were me!"

"Why is the Moon God's personality different from what I imagined? Has he always spoken so violently?"

While the students were discussing,
Hearing Lin Tian's words, Tuoba Jianhui also laughed.

"Have courage!"

"But you also need to have the strength to support it."

Tuoba Jianhui looked at Lin Tian. Although what he said just now was a joke, he clearly saw a hint of murderous intent in Lin Tian's eyes.

Lin Tian is serious.

Tuoba Jianhui's smile gradually faded, and his expression became somewhat relieved.

It seems that this young man still hasn't let me go.

In this performance, it is likely that the real skills will be shown.

But it doesn't matter.

Tuoba Jianhui himself was not prepared to show mercy to Lin Tian.

Gan Yanyu looked at his grandfather and clenched his fists.

Feeling the touch of Lin Tian's chest behind her, the girl took a step forward, and after a while, her eyes became firm again.

The grandfather who raised me since I was a child.

The one who once dominated the cello world and personally taught his grandfather the cello playing skills.

Now, for the common dream of the four of them.

They all knew that this war was inevitable!

"bring it on."

Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu quickly took their positions.

Lin Tian sat opposite Tuoba Jianhui and tried the pitch of the piano in the classroom and confirmed that there was no problem.

Gan Yanyu and Gan Hua were also sitting opposite each other.

“You have a song that I really like.”

Tuoba Jianhui said this and showed the two of them a piece of music score.

The song was none other than the music played by Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu on the first stage -

"Symphony No. 5 in G minor: Pathétique".

That is Mozart's Symphony No. 40.

"This is the first time I've heard your work. To be honest, I really liked your performance at the concert," Tuoba Jianhui said frankly.

This surprised Lin Tian a little.

It turns out that Tuoba Jianhui has been paying attention to himself and Gan Yanyu since so early?
The subsequent judges of the Yingqin Cup, Tuoba Jianhui, who was in a high position, came to Qingjiang Province to serve as the chief judge of the local competition. Was it also because of that performance?
It seems that Tuoba Jianhui’s words “dangerous performance” are not difficult to understand.

As for the performance by Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu, it was indeed a stage performance that was completed with high-risk moves.

The degree of resonance,
Even the current Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu may not be able to reproduce the extremely tragic state they were in before.

It can be said,
"Symphony No. 40" is one of the best pieces performed by Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu.

Do you choose this song?

Lin Tian looked at the music score carefully again and found that this was not the original score written by Lin Tian.

Instead, it is a version that has undergone a certain degree of adaptation, with a higher tempo and difficulty, and several original variations added.

This version is not as good as Lin Tian’s original work in terms of the music itself.

However, it tests their techniques and playing skills even more.

It can be said that this is simply an exercise song used to test one's ability.

"This is a joint work of Lao Gan and I."

Tuoba Jianhui said,

“Your Symphony No. 5 is beautiful, but I think you can play this adapted version more freely. We are also eager to see what effect this piece will have when played by you.”

Tuoba Jianhui said, looking at the students outside the window.

"It's just right. Let me give my students a lesson."

"of course."

Gan Hua said,

“We’ll also be involved in the ensemble.”

Ensemble?
Lin Tian was a little surprised, but at the same time found it interesting.

If it was just a normal duel, with you playing one song and I playing one song, although the results would be more intuitive, there would not be much confrontation.

But the ensemble is different.

For a few people who didn't care about the ensemble partners at all and had never received ensemble training before.

When playing the same music, it is very easy to be led astray by the opponent's performance. If one lacks willpower and skills, it is easy to be destroyed by the opponent's performance.

For a specific example, you can refer to the scene where most of the early performers, who had little foundation, played with Gan Yanyu.

Among young people, Gan Yanyu's willpower is very strong. The power of "absolute core" can always easily lead all the ensemble players astray.

The current opponents are Tuoba Jianhui and Gan Hua, and the situation will be different.

After all, the opponents in front of them are veteran artists with profound background, and they will definitely not be easily led astray by Gan Yanyu.

Moreover, with such rich experience, they may even have prepared for how to interfere with Gan Yanyu during the performance.

But, here’s where it gets interesting.

If there is no challenge, Lin Tian will find it boring. "I have no problem."

Gan Yanyu said this before Lin Tian.

The girl had a resolute look on her face, and it was obvious that she had been prepared for anything.

"That's okay with me too."

Immediately afterwards, Lin Tian also expressed his opinion.

"sure?"

Tuoba Jianhui said, "This is an adaptation made by us. If you perform it for the first time, you may suffer a loss."

"Get it right, this is our work." Lin Tian refuted with a smile.
"You are the ones who suffer."

Having said that, there is nothing more to say.

The four of them took their positions.

"3, 2, 1——"

After the last three numbers,
Four instruments played simultaneously -

The passionate music echoed in the classroom in an instant.

"~!"

The overwhelming momentum, like a gust of wind, rushed towards the students in the corridor.

So sad, so poignant, so passionate and heroic.

The collision of the two sides' joint ensemble.

The boys and girls were stunned, their hearts already shocked beyond measure by the opening of the music.

An ensemble of two young men and two old men,

At this moment, a picture is formed in the classroom of this music conservatory.

As expected of an old guy!
After the first paragraph ended, Lin Tian was secretly surprised.

Although I have never heard the two old men play.

But as soon as the music began, Lin Tian felt the profound inner strength of the older generation of artists.

Their playing is less aggressive and frivolous than that of young people.

But it is more stable and mature, and every note is full of heavy emotions and a majestic aura without anger.

Maybe not amazing enough.

But it feels oppressive.

They just followed the music and performed without any mistakes, which was already shocking.

These are the classical musicians of the older generation!
Decades of musical heritage are embodied in the music at this moment.

In front of such a performance, ordinary performers with little experience would easily lose their composure in the seemingly calm performance of the opponent. When the opponent did not make any attacking moves, they would be forced to make mistakes by such terrible pressure.

among them,

The cello from Gan Hua is amazing. Even though she has been retired for such a long time, she still has such skilled playing skills.

Even Gan Yanyu, who was most familiar with her grandfather, showed a look of surprise.

Why.
Why can grandpa recover to such a high level of performance in such a short time?

Even the most skilled craftsman will find his skills unfamiliar if he hasn't been on the stage for more than ten years, and it will take at least some time to adjust!

This is simply not something a human can do!
The only explanation is:

During these more than ten years.

Grandpa played it over and over in his mind every day and every night.

In the old man's world, he has been waiting for this day for a long, long time.

Don't be distracted——

Lin Tian's piano emitted a huge note, waking Gan Yanyu up.

The girl reacted and immediately refocused her attention on the cello in her hands.

at the same time,

Seeing this scene, Gan Hua gripped the bow tightly, feeling slightly relieved.

The girl lowered her head, concentrating and trying her best to play the instrument.

Gan Hua’s thoughts returned to 16 years ago.

On that stage.

How did Gan Hua feel when he came to Vienna alone, carrying everything on his shoulders, and played his first classical music in the preliminary round?

The young people in the audience were drowsy;
The old men on the judges' panel looked at him with an impatient expression;
On one side of the stage, a fellow contestant, a Western cellist, looked at him with sarcasm and disdain for his outdated classical music.
He knew that he was bound to lose this game.

Even if he managed to advance from the preliminary round, he would definitely lose in the semi-finals.

Do you want to continue?
Can it continue?
Such a bright and dazzling golden hall.

The dream place of countless musicians.

But at that moment, Gan Hua, who was standing here, suddenly didn't know why he was standing on this stage and why he was starting such a performance.

The images of my companions kept flashing through my mind.

Some of them were wearing work clothes and suits, while others were lazy and decadent, exuding a working atmosphere.

For a moment, Gan Hua was really in a trance.

Why am I standing here?

Yes, because they still have unfulfilled dreams. Because he carries the hopes of too many of his companions.

But, do I really deserve it?

but,

If I leave the cello, what will be left?

Does my life still have meaning?
In an instant,
All the memories turned into dead leaves, as if blown away by the wind, and disappeared in an instant.

In an instant,
The young man Gan Hua's eyes suddenly opened, bloodshot as he stared at the cello in his hands.

Yes, my life has long been inseparable from the cello.

He was not bound by anything, nor was he pushed here by anyone.

He came here on his own!

it's not finished yet!
Even if I wither here like a worthless dead leaf.

He also absolutely could not let his cello die here meaninglessly.

And his significance is to entrust everything to the next person!

His meaning will be given by future musicians!
As the "number one cellist", Gan Hua has no choice. As the last pure land of classical music in people's eyes, he must continue to fight!
He must become a beacon-like existence, illuminating those who come after him.

Gan Hua pulled the bow.

By now,

Is the drugging story true or not? Does it still matter?

When Lin Tian thought of this, he smiled with relief.

The words that Mao Weiang's female agent said to him that night came to his mind.

Lin Tian finally understood.

What exactly does "respect" mean when Tuoba Jianhui and Gan Hua speak of it?

Fans I met by the river.

Xu Yong and Su Ran.

Nanali, Bai Xi, Bai Junze, Mao Weiang
Lin Tian understood everything.

Lin Tian took a deep breath, raised his hands, and struck the piano keys hard.

Just watch, seniors!
Your mission has been completed, and the rest is left to us.

Right here, let your reputation be ruined! (End of this chapter)
