world number one pianist

Chapter 265 Chief Reconsideration
Everyone at the scene was extremely silent, and no one dared to speak out at this moment.

He Shen's current situation is not particularly good.

Or……

For them, He Shen came out at the wrong time!
If He Shen came out earlier, maybe a few days ago, no matter who it was, they would definitely try to play along with He Shen.

Make simple collaborations.

but now……

Most of them have already found the piano accompanist teacher who they will rehearse later, and they have already prepared for the rehearsal later.

Those players who are particularly weak can't hold He Shen down, and they may not be able to keep up with He Shen's thoughts at all.

Just like a child driving a big car, there is no way to control it.

But for those players who are particularly experienced, they can cooperate well with He Shen, but they don't think it is particularly necessary.

Because for them, being able to enter the next round, become the "leader", and become one of the last few players is the most important thing.

The first is stability, and then the breakthrough.

Even if all of them know that He Shen is very strong, and that He Shen's piano skills are very strong, it is ridiculously strong.

It's a pity that unless the kind of people who are particularly daring and want to fight.

Otherwise, no top players would be willing to stand up at this time and say that they want to cooperate with He Shen.

therefore……

The whole scene couldn't be warmed up at all, everyone was looking at each other awkwardly, silent.

The other piano accompaniment teachers originally wanted to chat with He Shen a little bit more, to discuss He Shen's skills in playing the piano, his thoughts on music, and so on.

It's a pity that looking at the current situation, it's not a good time to discuss, so I can only shut my mouth very wisely, carefully watching everything around me, and wanting to see how the situation develops.

As the host, Xiao Tong suddenly came to his senses at this time, looking at everyone around him, his face changed slightly.

She realized that what she just said was wrong!

I boasted too much about He Shen, causing some other contestants to know that He Shen is very strong, but it made them fearful, afraid that their brilliance on the stage would be snatched away by a piano accompaniment teacher.

This is a competition about vocals, not a competition about piano.

Therefore, for them, the most important thing is to show their own strength on this stage and tell everyone that their strength is unrivaled!

Instead of giving the stage to the piano accompanist teacher, let everyone know that everything they accomplished was brought to them by the accompanist teacher.

At this time, a little problem appeared.

Everyone is frozen in this place, and there is no way for things to continue.

As a host of Fruit TV, Xiao Tong immediately took a few steps forward, smoothed things over, and said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I just came here today to introduce our upcoming teacher He Shen, so that everyone can be familiar with it. If anyone wants to cooperate with He Shen in the future, you can come and talk to He Shen. Everyone knows the level of Teacher He Shen, and he is definitely very powerful!"

"Ah."

He Shen looked at the crowd, trying to get himself into the state of a variety show, so he nodded slightly to the crowd.

"Yes, after I won the Chopin International Piano Competition, I entered the Berlin University of the Arts and studied art direction courses. I have studied both instrumental music art direction and vocal music art direction. The core courses of both, such as conducting As well as score analysis and adaptation, etc., I am very familiar with this, purely art direction, there is no problem."

Wang Xi: "..."

Zheng Long: "..."

Aga: "..."

Everyone stood there, not knowing where they should start complaining about this problem.

The main reason why they didn't seek He Shen's accompaniment was not that they thought He Shen's accompaniment was not good enough!

The main reason is that He Shen's strength is too strong, making it impossible for those with weak abilities to keep up with He Shen's pace.

And for those with strong abilities, if they rehearse in such a short period of time, the effect will definitely not be as good as cooperating with the current accompaniment teacher.

This made them unable to choose He Shen!

after all……

If I remember correctly, today is photography day!
When everyone was extremely embarrassed, the door of the lounge was suddenly opened, Xiao Tong's eyes lit up, he walked quickly to the door, and spoke to the young man standing at the door.

"Director Sujiang! You are here!"

The others also looked at Su Jiang immediately, and greeted Su Jiang quickly.

Su Jiang looked at the crowd and nodded slightly.

Su Jiang, male, 28 years old, is the artistic director who has made a name for himself this time.

Responsible for the piano accompaniment part and the person in charge of the music part.

All the works that the contestants will sing next, as well as their cooperation with the piano accompaniment teacher, must be reviewed by him.

Therefore, he can be regarded as the contestant with the highest artistic level in this show except for the judges.

Su Jiang smiled back at everyone around him, and then paused for a while on He Shen's body. He always felt that He Shen looked familiar, but he didn't care.

It feels like a certain famous star came to participate in the competition, which makes me feel a little familiar.

Therefore, Su Jiang said directly to Xiao Tong: "How is it? Have everyone's rehearsals ended? After a while, it will be the competition. We have already let all the spectators enter and are ready to start filming. "

"It's all ready, it's almost ready before, but..."

Xiao Tong glanced at He Shen, hesitated a little, she didn't know whether she should tell the fact that He Shen had no partner.

After all, this matter is not considered a particularly important matter.

For the whole show.

In this program, most of the audience's attention is on the vocal stars. They don't really care much about these so-called accompanists.

Su Jiang looked at Xiao Tong and didn't pay much attention to it. He just went to the crowd, found a few piano accompaniment teachers, asked them about the details, and then nodded.

"Okay, let's get ready to go on stage. The stage is already ready, the staff, and all the piano accompanist teachers, please come with me first."

After all, he walked outside without any hesitation.

All the piano accompanist teachers got up, followed Su Jiang, and walked towards the stage.

Those in charge of video recording immediately entered the room as soon as they left to take photos behind the scenes of these contestants.

He Shen looked at the group of people without much expression on his face. He just followed Su Jiang's steps and walked outside according to what Su Jiang said before.

Xiao Tong glanced at the people around her, her face couldn't help being a bit bitter, she quickly followed He Shen's pace, and whispered to He Shen in an apologetic tone.

"Mr. He, I'm sorry, I don't know about this, I just feel that telling the fact that you are very strong may attract the attention of many people and make them choose you as their piano accompaniment teacher. We can give you more shots and the like, but I really didn’t expect that no one would choose you. This is my negligence, and I’m very sorry.”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Tong lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.

But He Shen just glanced at her and shook his head slightly.

"No, it's okay, just give me a little time and let me see how the artistic style of this group of people is."

"Huh? Art style level?"

Xiao Tong was stunned for a moment, but didn't understand He Shen's meaning.

After all, for her, art level is such a thing, those who can stand on the stage and be elected as the chief, don't they all have the same artistic level?

Therefore, she just smiled awkwardly, did not catch up with He Shen's words, and followed He Shen honestly, walking towards the stage.

The crowd soon came to the center of the performance venue.

Several judges and teachers were already sitting there chatting casually with each other. When they saw He Shen and others coming, they immediately greeted everyone with a smile.

He Shen followed behind the crowd and did not look at the judges' seat.

Since I have nothing to do now, I can just watch the show in the background and just look at it casually.

It was his first time to record a variety show of this kind.

however……

The moment he stepped into the big stage, the judge who was originally sitting in the middle of the judge's seat suddenly opened his eyes and stood up abruptly, saying in disbelief.

"How deep?"

He Shen couldn't help but stop, looking at the elderly man in the middle of the judging panel, he thought for a while before he finally remembered.

"Principal Liao?"

Liao Yong, the current principal of Haicheng Conservatory of Music, met once before, when he was holding a concert.

At that time, the principals and heads of the piano departments of all the conservatories in Huaguo came.

Therefore, Liao Yong, the principal, is no exception.

But they just met for a brief meeting, the two people do not belong to the same field, and the communication between them is limited to greetings between meetings.

But at this time, they met together, which directly shocked Liao Yong.

At the same time, it led another judge beside him.

Similarly, He Shen is also an acquaintance.

Xu Yuqi!
After hearing Principal Liao Yong's voice nearby, she got up involuntarily, and saw He Shen standing at the door.

Without any thought, she immediately got up and waved to He Shen.

"Mr. He! Is Mr. He really you? Why are you here, Mr. He?"

"Just come and help." He Shen nodded slightly to Xu Yuqi and Liao Yong: "Responsible for art direction."

"Art direction? That's a bit overkill."

Liao Yong sighed and shook his head.

He Shen didn't say much, just smiled and walked towards the staff's seats.

Looking at He Shen's back, Xu Yuqi felt helpless for a moment, but she had no choice but to shrug her shoulders and sit down.

Liao Yong took a slightly surprised look at Xu Yuqi, a little surprised that she also knew He Shen.

Therefore, he gave Xu Yuqi a friendly smile and returned to his seat.

The last judge looked at He Shen's back and nodded silently.

Although he was a little interested in He Shen, the reason for his interest was that Xu Yuqi and Liao Yong actually knew He Shen.

Unfortunately, he was not familiar with He Shen, so he didn't have many chances to strike up a conversation.

As the judges took their seats, all the staff immediately got busy, putting the audience into the arena, adjusting the lights in the grand theater, and the overall layout.

Make a final confirmation.

He Shen sat in his seat, quietly waiting for the show to start.

Xiao Tong, who had been by He Shen's side all the time, became numb.

She originally thought that He Shen was very strong, but her reputation was not obvious.

Now it seems that this is not the case at all!

The judges in this place, such as Liao Yong, can be regarded as the No. 1 listed Huaguo vocal music!The principal of Huaguo's top music academy!

Such a person, who is deeply impressed by He Shen, can still stand up on his own initiative!

This behavior is unusual...

Liao Yong's words, if you consider He Shen's status as the champion of the Chopin International Piano Competition, although there is still a little bit of strangeness, it is not incomprehensible.

But Xu Yuqi is different!

Xu Yuqi, since filming a movie about piano and classical music with a top director, her status has risen sharply, she has gained a firm foothold in the film industry, and she has the opportunity to become a queen at any time!

Moreover, even if she didn't become a queen, she still has a very high status in Huaguo's entertainment circle, and she already has a tendency to be the head of Xiaohuadan.

Others, Xiaohuadans of the same level as her, may not be able to keep up with her pace.

How deep would such a person know?

Xiao Tong felt a little strange for a while.

After all, these two people, how could they know each other in two completely unrelated fields?
Xiao Tong could not help but sit beside He Shen, and whispered to He Shen.

"Well, I want to ask, why do you know Xu Yuqi? She..."

"I served as her substitute before, and taught her the piano for a period of time, so that she can master the basic skills of the piano."

He Shen directly interrupted Xiao Tong's words, and said in a flat tone.

But such a plain sentence stunned Xiao Tong.

In the movie where Xu Yuqi became famous before, the perfect substitute was in it, so it was you?

Good guy!
Xiao Tong looked at He Shen, really not knowing what to say.

The person in front of her was so awesome that she didn't know what to say for a while.

Therefore, she could only smile awkwardly again, get up, and walk towards the stage as if fleeing for her life.

This person is too strong, and she felt that if she continued to be by his side, she might die of inferiority complex.

Therefore, even if she is wearing high heels, she can run fast.

Xiao Tong left, and the people around watched He Shen and discussed in low voices. Coupled with the voices of the audience, the whole theater seemed extremely noisy for a while.

He Shen remained calm, without any change in his expression.

Just when everyone was getting louder, the lights on the stage went out.

The host stepped onto the stage, and his extremely low tone slowly rang out around everyone.

"This is a brand new music program!"

"Professionals from major music academies around the world will jointly select the final six principals to step onto the final stage!"

"Based on classics, interpret music and art in different ways!"

"Feel the collision of bel canto, opera, musicals, pop music, and folk music!"

"In the first round, we have already decided on the first group of members who will become the chief!"

"And now, we will give subsequent substitute members a chance to become the chief member!"

"If the kick is successful and approved by all the judges, then he will become the new chief!"

"so……"

"Welcome, the sound touches people's hearts!"

click!
The lights go out!

Everyone immediately held their breath, looked at the shadows on the stage, and waited for the first contestant to appear.

Not long after, the first contestant stepped out from the entrance on the side, smiled at the crowd, and said.

"Hello teachers, I'm Huang Zifan. My vocal range is from small letter group f to hi g. I'm currently studying at the Berklee College of Music in the beautiful country. I will sing a song and say goodbye!"

After all, the music started, and he calmed down before singing.

He Shen sat in his seat and watched his singing very naturally, without too much expression on his face.

Saying goodbye to this work is very simple, or rather, very simple.

It is a work that almost everyone who has studied vocal music must learn.

It's similar to, after learning the piano, the first one either plays the little star or the happy birthday song.

Therefore, almost everyone has heard this work.

In the middle, the arrangement, adaptation and key change were carried out, but it was okay. For He Shen, it didn't feel particularly amazing.

He just listened so slowly, with a look of nothing to do with himself.

I don't think it's my business anyway, so I don't have any burden in my heart.

Soon, the first contestant finished singing, and the three judges judged.

After a brief evaluation, he was finally given a substitute seat.

Then came the second and third.

Contestants come on stage one by one, some are good at singing, some are not so good, everyone has their own unique characteristics.

There are also one or two chief replacements in the middle.

But these are all normal. When those few sang, it gave He Shen a little bit of a bright feeling.

At the very least, there is something about music, and it is very sufficient.

You can feel their feeling for music.

Until... a man with a strange name appeared.

"Next one, Aga, please prepare for the audition!"

Aga, Mongolian contestant, musical actor.

He Shen listened to some players in front of him, and he was a little bit sleepy, but he woke up a little bit.

This Mongolian, a musical actor, is very interesting.

And I heard from many people around me that this contestant has been playing the leading role in musicals all these years.

Then it means that this person's strength may be very strong!
He Shen touched his chin, leaned his body on the back of the seat, looked at Aga in front of him, and waited for his singing.

"Teachers, the work I'm going to sing next is an excerpt from the musical "Butterfly", "Heart"!"

Aga read out the title of his work slowly, and the surrounding preludes slowly surged.

Emotions are also gradually surging.

At this moment, Aga raised the microphone in his hand, looked at the front very affectionately, and his voice came out.

"my sweetheart……"

"Do you know how……"

"Crying until dawn..."

"Let the sea water fill your chest,"

"Into my chest."

"..."

The sound is incomparably transparent and beautiful.

All the contestants stood up and looked at Aga in disbelief.

He sang very well, softly to the extreme!
Even a few judges showed a hint of surprise in their eyes.

In Aga's eyes, there was an incomparably full of emotion.

Emotions are getting more and more surging.

The feeling of music is becoming more and more powerful!

Finally, at the last moment, amidst the high notes that lasted several beats, the singing ended.

He Shen looked at Aga in front of him, and nodded involuntarily.

This person is very good at singing. Although He Shen has never heard of other chief singing competitions, it seems that this person should be able to enter the chief.

His strength is very strong!

However, just when He Shen thought that this was the end of the matter, just like the previous person, he directly changed from a substitute to the chief, things changed.

The judges were discussing, and they didn't give an answer right away.

It's not a discussion about whether Aga can enter the chief position, but a discussion about who he can replace.

Who on earth can be replaced by him!

The scene was extremely quiet, and everyone was waiting for the judges' final decision.

After an unknown period of time, when everyone was about to lose patience, Xu Yuqi suddenly got up, called the director who was standing aside, and had a quick exchange.

Not long after, the director stepped down, and the host's voice sounded, speaking to everyone.

"Principal number six, Zheng Long, go to the audition room."

Everyone was stunned, unexpectedly, let two people enter the audition room at the same time?
Then it means that the judges don't know who is more powerful and whose strength is more average.

In other words, these two people must confront each other head-on!
All of a sudden, everyone became excited and looked towards the stage with great anticipation.

According to the rules of the game, this is called "chief reconsideration".

If the judges have no way to make a decision, then they need to stand up and compare each other to decide who can go up and who will go down!

therefore……

Zheng Long was called up.

Xu Yuqi glanced at Liao Yonghou who was beside her, and said to the two of them.

"Sorry to turn you in because we totally did not anticipate this situation."

"You and Aga, we have discussed for a long time, but we still haven't come to a conclusion who is the most suitable person to take the chief position."

"Therefore, I'm very sorry, you two need to sing again, and then we will make the final decision based on the situation of your performance!"

"So, you two, who will start first?"

Zheng Long glanced at Aga, patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said to everyone.

"It's okay, I'll come first, he just finished singing, let him have a rest."

Aga also patted Zheng Long on the back, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.

The emotional mobilization of the singing just now made him feel tired from the bottom of his heart.

If I change to a new piece immediately, I can sing it, but I definitely can't sing it very well.

When Xu Yuqi heard this, she couldn't help but take another look at Zheng Long, smiled and didn't say anything.

Liao Yong spoke out.

"That's right, I see the strength of character of both of you!"

"Unfortunately, at this time, we don't give you the opportunity to continue rehearsing with the band and the art instructor, so we have no way for you to sing with the band, but to follow the art instructor's piano first."

"This is a great test of your skills."

"You can choose your art instructors and works as you like."

After all, Principal Liao sat back on his chair and gave the stage to the two of them.

The backstage was in chaos, and no one expected such a scene to happen.

Sing without rehearsal!

This difficulty is not ordinary!
This requirement for the singer's own strength has almost reached a perverted level.

Not only the singers, but also the accompanists.

Therefore, everyone looked at Zheng Long in front of them solemnly, waiting for his decision.

Zheng Long took a deep breath, looked at the three judges in front of him, and said slowly.

"I just recently rehearsed a musical called "I, Don Quixote". I personally like it very much, so I chose this one."

"As for the piano accompanist..."

Zheng Long turned his gaze to the side, looking at his former piano accompanist teacher, and He Shen.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned his head to look at the three judges in front of him, and said with great respect.

"I choose……"
