world number one pianist

Chapter 233 A Car Crash...?

The staff came quickly, pushed open the door of everyone's room, picked up the board in their hands, and spoke to everyone.

"First player, Poland, Piotr, Alexewicz, please come and get ready to play!

The second contestant, JJ Jun Li Bui from Maple Leaf Country, please enter the waiting room and wait! "

After all, the staff stood at the door and looked at the people in the room.

The Polish player didn't respond. He just nodded slightly, got up, took a step, and walked out of the lounge.

The Bai Lijun from Maple Leaf Country sighed, put away the fidget spinner in his hand, put it in his trouser pocket, and nodded slightly to everyone in the room.

He glanced at He Shen who was sitting in the middle of the room, and Kobayashi Aishi who was sitting opposite He Shen, and without saying a word, he followed the staff and walked out.

At this moment, the concert hall was extremely noisy, and everyone was looking for their seats, and they kept discussing today's game with their companions.

Today's game can be regarded as the third round of the game, which is especially popular with everyone.

First of all, He Shen, who is first in the first round and second in the second round, as long as He Shen and Liu Yu appear in the game, their tickets will sell out quickly.

The second is Aishi Kobayashi.

Although Xiaolin Aishi failed in the previous round of confrontation with He Shen, she was unable to confront He Shen head-on.

But I have to say that her strength is still very, very good.

In the last round of the competition, even if she was overwhelmed by He Shen, her overall score ranked among the top ten in the second round.

After all, no matter how she didn't show her full strength, she could still be regarded as the seed player of the first echelon.

Even if she is not eligible to compete for the championship, she is still eligible to compete for the top few positions.

It was precisely because of this appearance that the second meeting between her and He Shen was even more interesting.

Many people are thinking whether Xiaolin Aishi can continue to develop in this round, and can fight against He Shen again without losing the wind.

Or was he suppressed by He Shen and never got up again?

If Kobayashi Aishi is suppressed by He Shen and can't get up, it will be interesting!

There may be a very, very obvious change in the top ten positions.

Some players who didn't intend to compete for the top six, in this place, also have the opportunity to compete for the top six!

If it was just He Shen and Kobayashi Aishi on the first day of the competition, in fact, the first day of the competition was just like that, it could only be regarded as an ordinary promotion match.

but!

In addition to these two people, there is also Bai Lijun from Maple Leaf Country, JJ Jun Li Bui with a lot of letters in his name, Bai Lijun!

In the overall results, his results have maintained a position in the middle of the first echelon.

If he didn't guess wrong, he basically has a chance to compete for the top six players!

Even those players who are considered by some to be the bottom players in this round may be eliminated.

The strength is also extremely strong, which cannot be underestimated at all!
Even Piotr, the Polish player.

His strength can also be regarded as the number one player selected from the Polish region!

In other words, on the first day of the third round, there were three players who were eligible to compete for the top six positions.

There is even a person who has the opportunity to compete for the No.1 position!

The next few players are also eligible to compete for the top ten!
No, anyone is a weakling!

None!
Now, the gold content of this day's competition has become extremely high!
Even if they didn't watch other games, all those people wanted to watch today's game!

It is precisely because of this that classical music scalpers, who are usually not very popular, have become extremely popular in this place.

Everyone hopes to get a ticket for the first day of competition from their place!

It is precisely because of this that this match is so hot that no one who has tickets is willing to give up their tickets.

In the first round and the second round, there might still be a few vacant positions, but on the first day of the third round, there were no vacant positions at all.

Even an oversold ticket, those standing at the end of the concert hall and enjoying the music, were all sold out. The group of people stood in the corner very obediently, waiting for the start of the competition.

And without making the crowd wait for long, the staff stood up, nodded slightly to the crowd, and coughed lightly.

The sound instantly swept from the stage to the entire concert hall.

The people who were still discussing the competition in the concert hall in full swing immediately shut their mouths and looked at everything in front of them with great anticipation.

Look at the players waiting to play.

No. [-], No. [-], No. [-], none of them are particularly important players.

And Bai Lijun in the second place, He Shen in the fourth place, and Kobayashi Aishi in the sixth place!

Now it's all the highlight!
Everyone immediately sat upright, their eyes fixed on the staff member in front of them, waiting for his announcement.

This staff member shook his arm a little to calm his mind a little, and then spoke directly to the crowd.

"The Chopin International Piano Competition, the third round, the first day of the competition, now officially begins!"

"First of all, welcome to the judges who participated in this selection, they are Deng Songshan!"

"Argerich!"

"Chen Sa!"

"..."

After the host read out the names of all the judges one by one, those judges also stood up one by one in the order of the host, and bowed slightly to everyone.

This time, the judges for the third round of the competition were not like before, with only a dozen or so people.

This time, the seats for the judges are almost full!

Nearly more than 30 judges appeared in the judges' seats.

Every judge has a different preference for music, and their understanding of music is also different.

Therefore, the scores they can give will be more subtle than the average scores of previous games.

However, the gap between the total scores may become even greater!
If the performance is in line with the preferences of most of the judges, then their scores may be higher!

But if it doesn't meet the judges' preferences, the score will be a little lower than before!
This is a double-edged sword!

When He Shen was sitting in the backstage, he was taken aback when he heard so many judges, and slowly opened his eyes, looking in the direction of the concert hall.

This, for him, is not good news.

but……

He Shen looked at the people in the room, and when he looked at some of them, his eyes obviously became extremely excited, and he couldn't help shaking his head slightly.

Don't get too entangled in factors other than music.

These things are all uncontrollable!
And the only thing that can be controlled is one's own strength!
He Shen took a look at all his works, all of which had reached the level of a master, and the corners of his mouth could not help but tilt up slightly.

His strength in the third round will be extraordinarily strong!

In the first round and the second round, there may be some works that were a little more general.

But in this third round...

I will not have any weaknesses!

He Shen closed his eyes again, waiting for his turn.

The staff on the stage also read the list of all the judges who participated in the selection, then turned the list in their hands and continued to speak to everyone.

"The first player, from Poland! Piotr, Alexewicz
Piano Choice: Steinway D274
Repertoire 24: Mazurka op1 no[-] in G minor,

Repertoire 24: Mazurka op2 no[-] in C major,

Repertoire 24: Mazurka op3 no[-] in A flat major,

Repertoire 24: Mazurka op4 no[-] in B-flat minor;

Repertoire Five: Prelude op28, a total of 24 pieces! "

After the voice fell, everyone applauded!
Piotr stepped forward, from the side steps, towards the top of the concert hall.

His eyes are full of confidence and seriousness.

Although, many people are not very optimistic about him, thinking that he has little chance of entering the finals, that is, the fourth round.

but……

No one would want others to look down on them!
He always needs to prove himself, to prove that his strength is enough!I really have a chance to enter the fourth round!

He walked quickly to the front of the piano, bowed slightly to everyone, and sat down directly.

He picked up his hand towel, quickly wiped off the sweat from his palms, and then threw it on the piano.

The fingers are lifted slightly, and then gently lowered.

The voice was transmitted to everyone's hearts incomparably thoroughly.

Mazurka No. 24, No. [-], G minor!

An interpretation full of exotic styles, stepped out of the piano in an instant!
Most people don't have any special feelings, they just think he plays pretty well.

but……

Dan Yi, who was sitting in the corner, raised his head.

Rao Hao who was sitting in another corner raised his head.

Some Huaguo players sitting in the front row raised their heads.

They looked at this player together, looking at this player from Poland, their eyes were full of strangeness.

Possibly, and many sympathies.

Piotr now has no idea what will happen to him in the future!
Now, he and He Shen have collided with the work!
He will face He Shen, who is in full form!

Although it is said that in the Chopin International Piano Competition, it is inevitable to collide with the repertoire...

But this kind of complete collision, exactly the same collision, is really very rare.

No matter how much he prefers freehand brushwork, the feeling of wanting to interpret a more self, that kind of special self-Chopin, is his own Chopin.

No matter what, there is a big difference with He Shen.

But anyway...

They still collided with the tracks, and they still collided exactly the same!
This one is rare...

Now it's really, earning a living!

The Huaguo people sitting in front gave each other a look, trying to see the thoughts in each other's eyes.

But it's a pity that everyone has no idea, and some are just a pity.

There is only one reason, that is, this Piotr played really, really well!
The tone is really perfect!

There are hardly any mistakes.

Occasionally a few very small, very small mistakes, in his music interpretation, also appear to be extremely perfect!

Not only his Mazurka, but the Chopin Prelude behind it...

When everyone thought of this, they couldn't help pinching their brows.

This person is really a pity!

Chopin's complete set of preludes is really, too difficult, and not many people are willing to interpret it on this occasion.

Even if they were asked to play two different Chopin piano sonatas back-to-back, they would not want to play Chopin's complete set of piano preludes.

Chopin's full set of piano preludes is really too scary.

The detail control requirements on the spiritual level are extremely high, there are 24 works, and the detailed requirements of each work are different!
Although it can be said to be a complete set of works, in fact, there are 24 completely different works!
None of the contestants who choose to play Chopin's complete set of piano preludes at the Chopin International Piano Competition are weak.

Their strength is extremely terrifying!
It's just a pity...

How Shen met such a player!

He Shen, who was sitting in the background, couldn't help being taken aback, raised his head, and looked at the stage in the distance.

He really didn't expect that this contestant would perform exactly the same composition as himself!
and……

He Shen closed his eyes and savored carefully. He could clearly feel that the strength of this player had reached the level of Lv9!
Chopin's Mazurka is basically Lv9, which is about the same as myself.

Chopin's Prelude, even if it doesn't have Lv10, it still has the level of Lv9!
A player of this strength happened to meet me, this...

He Shen didn't know what to say for a while, he just rubbed his eyebrows and smiled helplessly.

This player, I can only say that I hope he can enter the next round.

I hope he won't be eliminated so inexplicably because of himself!

After all, his performance in this game was really too supermodel, even He Shen didn't know what to say.

He Shen shook his head, and was just about to turn his gaze away, but suddenly found that Kobayashi Aishi, who was sitting opposite him, also showed a trace of strange emotion in her gaze.

If I guessed correctly...

Kobayashi loves her so much that he seems to have hit the tune too!
Moreover, she only showed this look when Piotr played the prelude.

It seems that her performance is also Chopin's prelude.

Chopin's Prelude, matched with Chopin's Mazurka.

This is true.

When He Shen thought of this place, he couldn't help but feel his head hurt even more.

In the usual Chopin International Piano Competition, more than 20 contestants can choose to play Chopin's complete set of piano preludes, probably two or three.

Unexpectedly, all of them are placed in one day now?

Own Chopin Piano Prelude, Kobayashi Aimi's Chopin Piano Prelude, Piotr's Chopin Piano Prelude.

Now, it really is, whoever is weak is embarrassed!
Piotr on the stage didn't know He Shen's thoughts, he was just playing the emotion, his fingers running quickly on the piano keyboard, interpreting the most perfect interpretation he could.

He even felt that his condition had never been so good!
Even if some notes are occasionally wrong, it has no effect at all.

He can even feel that feeling of Chopin!

This feeling is very, very good!
After the last note, he raised his hand and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

His playing, he feels that his wave is very, very strong!

Not to mention being comparable to He Shen, at least, the player behind him, Bui from Maple Leaf Country, might be slightly better than him!
He stood up, bowed slightly to the crowd, and prepared to step down.

For some reason, he always felt that the expressions of some people in the audience in front of him were very strange.

It's like... sympathizing with yourself?

He couldn't help frowning slightly, not quite sure why these people would sympathize with him?
But he didn't think much, and walked off the stage directly.

The staff stood up and waited for the piano on the stage to go down the slide rails and a new piano appeared before he stood in the center of the stage and spoke to the crowd.

"The second player, Maple Leaf Country, JJ Jun Li Bui
Piano Choice: Kawaii SK-EX
Repertoire Choice 38: Ballade in F major, Op. [-]
Repertoire 24: Mazurka op1 no[-] in G minor,

Repertoire 24: Mazurka op2 no[-] in C major,

Repertoire 24: Mazurka op3 no[-] in A-flat major,

Repertoire Five: Mazurka op24 no4 in B-flat minor;

Repertoire Six: Mazurka Rondo in F major op5;

Repertoire choice seven: Sonata in B minor op58"

Bui got up from the backstage, walked towards the stage, walked to the center of the stage, bowed slightly to the crowd, and then sat on the piano bench. After a little adjustment, he was ready to play.

Off the stage, Piotr returned to the players' lounge. He returned to this place to tidy up his clothes and some items that had been placed in the lounge in advance.

Just when he just came in, He Shen suddenly looked at him, nodded slightly at him, and said.

"Played very well!"

"Um...thank you?"

Piotr was stunned for a moment, completely unaware that He Shen would actually talk to him, he scratched his head involuntarily, then smiled, and stretched out his hand to He Shen.

"So, do you work harder?"

"Well, I will."

He Shen got up, shook his hand, then reached out and patted his shoulder.

The staff also opened the door and came in at this time, just when they saw He Shen get up, they couldn't help being stunned for a moment, picked up the board in their hands, and said hesitantly.

"Well, the next contestant, He Shen, please go to the backstage to prepare, it will be you later!"

"Ah."

He Shen nodded, patted Piotr on the shoulder again, and walked towards the lounge.

Leaving Piotr with a dazed look on his face and the staff standing at the door.

He Shen walked into the lounge.

And when he entered the lounge, the sound of music outside had become very, very quiet.

After waiting for a while, the applause sounded, probably the second player, Bui from Maple Leaf Country, had finished playing.

The third contestant walked up quickly.

He Shen just listened for a while, then found a place to sit down, closed his eyes, and didn't bother to pay attention to those people's interpretation.

He Shen sat on the chair, quietly waiting for his turn.

Just when He Shen waited a little impatiently, the staff opened the door.

He said respectfully to He Shen.

"The previous player has finished playing, and it's your turn to come on stage!"

"Let's confirm the works with you for the last time. Are you sure that these works will not change?"

Seeing that the title of the work in the hands of the staff was exactly the same as the one he reported earlier, He Shen thought about it for a while, but still shook his head.

"No change."

"Okay! Please wait a moment, the previous contestant is about to step down."

After the voice fell, the backstage door of the concert hall opened, and incomparably roaring applause came to the backstage in an instant.

It seems that this player played well?
He Shen shook his head slightly, got up, walked to the door of the concert hall, and stood still.

Next, it's his turn!
　Make a complaint, Piotr, it sounds like Potter, the Harry Potter Potter, if you watch his video, he also looks like Potter.

　　I hadn't noticed him at all before, just listened to his full recording, and he played really well.

　　Much better than JJ Jun Li Bui!

　　But why didn't he make it to the next round?

　　emmmmm
