Valerie School of Music.
The sky was pattering with rain, and the air was filled with sticky water vapor.
Zhang Mai put away the umbrella and put it in the umbrella basket at the corner of the first floor.
He went up the stairs to the third floor, but instead of turning right to his own piano room, he turned left to the left.
It happened that a classmate came out of the piano room, and greeted him after seeing him, "Mai, are you looking for Ning again?"
Zhang Mai nodded towards him.
The classmate smiled and said: "The results are out, and Ning is the first again this year. Ah, I really envy the relationship between you and Ning. You can watch him play the piano up close and learn, and you can also play his piano."
Zhang Mai walked over without making a sound.
The classmate glanced at his back, didn't take it seriously, shrugged and left.
Different from other piano rooms, there is no sign in front of the leftmost piano room on the third floor, like a land without owner.
It's just that all the students in the department know that this is the highest holy place of their piano department.
Because only the top students in the department can use this piano room and play the hundred-year-old grand piano inside.
This is the place they look forward to entering on the first day of school.
However, since this piano room changed hands two years ago, the owner has never been changed.
Probably the owner of the piano room knew that someone was coming, and the door was unlocked, so Zhang Mai opened it with a light twist.
The black-colored blackout curtains were drawn tightly, and there was only a glimmer of light from the ceiling lamp in the room, which fell on the black grand piano in the middle of the room and the boy who was playing the piano.
The boy was wearing the simplest white shirt, with a straight waist, a pair of thin, slender hands with well-defined joints fell on the black and white keys, and the melodious notes were like elves dancing at the fingertips, and jumped along the eardrums all the way to the apex of the heart , as if a soft feather brushed gently, bringing a slight tremor.
——It is the 'Castle in the Sky'.
Also called "With You", it is the theme song of the movie "Laputa in the Sky", and it is the simplest piece of music.
As long as you have learned the piano a little bit, you can play it.
But also because of its simplicity, it reflects the superb skills of the piano player.A simple piece of music becomes like a sound of nature because of the player.
Zhang Mai clenched his hands into fists, and then suddenly released them.
After 2 minutes, the last note fell, and the piano room returned to silence.
The boy in front of the piano seemed to be aware of it, and turned his head to look over.
Under the light, the perfect face with a bit of youthfulness is as flawless and natural as a sculpture. His brows and eyes are clear, and the starlight flows in the clear eyes.
Seeing the person standing at the door, the boy pursed his lips and smiled, his beautiful eyes curved into two crescent moons, "Why don't you come in?"
"Look at how devoted you are to playing." Zhang Mai smiled back at him, closed the door and walked in, asking as he walked, "Why did you suddenly play 'Castle in the Sky'?"
Xie Yining blinked, and the long eyelashes drooped, casting a small shadow under his eyes, innocent and beautiful, "I just flicked it when I suddenly thought of it."
He stood up, flexed his wrist, and asked, "Does it sound good?"
"What do you think?" Zhang Mai asked back.
The helpless look in his eyes was like an elder brother looking at his unreasonable younger brother, "Can Xie Yining, who has won the first place in the piano department for two consecutive years, play a piece that is not good?"
"..." Xie Yining was a little embarrassed by what he said, and said humbly: "Don't bury me, it's just a fluke."
"No matter how lucky you are, you can't be lucky for two consecutive years." Zhang Mai obviously disagreed with his words.
The piano department will conduct an assessment every three months, and only the first one can enter this piano room.Since Xie Yining came to the piano department, the number one position has not changed again.
"Your ability is obvious to all, so you don't need to be so humble."
Xie Yining smiled and didn't dwell on this topic any more.He raised his hand and tried a few notes on the keys. The notes that belonged exclusively to the grand piano were melodious, which made people yearn inexplicably, wanting to play a more beautiful movement.
He turned sideways and gave way to the piano bench, "The new tune this morning, do you want to try it?"
"No."
Zhang Mai put away his smile, looked serious, glanced at the piano, and said: "This piano belongs to the first one, so what does it look like when I am the second one?"
Xie Yining was taken aback by what he said, and after realizing it, he hurriedly said: "That's not what I said, the piano is just a piano, anyone can play it, and it has nothing to do with the ranking."
"..."
Seeing Xie Yining's tense face, Zhang Mai finally chuckled lightly.
Seeing people laughing, Xie Yining still didn't understand something, he was relieved immediately, and said helplessly: "I was scared to death." He thought that Zhang Mai really cared about the first and second rankings.
"So not frightened?" Zhang Mai smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "I'll play the piano next time."
He looked up at Xie Yining, with sincere eyes and sincere words: "Ning Ning, thank you for your help with "Choose My Inn" this time. If you didn't go for me, I don't know what to do .”
"It's just a little effort, so don't be so polite." Xie Yining moved his fingers indifferently, "Anyway, I happen to have nothing to do during this time, so let's take it as a trip back to China for free."
Seeing his relaxed expression, Zhang Mai also relaxed, "That's right, you haven't been back for several years, you just took this opportunity to go back and see your family."
Xie Yining smiled and said nothing, as if he had acquiesced to what he said.
Zhang Mai: "Then let's have dinner together at noon? I made a reservation at the Chinese restaurant."
"Chinese restaurant?"
Xie Yining looked regretful when he heard the words, as if he missed [-] million, he was a little embarrassed and said, "But I happened to be unable to go at noon today, can I reschedule?"
"..." Zhang Mai said helplessly, "Yes."
Xie Yining laughed, "Thank you."
Zhang Mai shook his head, Xie Yining was only so excited when talking about food.
"correct."
After making an appointment for tomorrow, Zhang Mai seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked, "Did you tell Teacher Coverdale about your return to China? Does he... have no objections?"
Xie Yining shook his head, "No. The teacher is busy with the tour recently, so don't bother him with such small things."
Zhang Mai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
"What??" Xie Yining didn't hear clearly, so he asked.
"It's nothing." Zhang Mai changed the subject nonchalantly, "The program team will contact you later to check the information and sign the contract. If you have any questions, you can also contact me directly."
Xie Yining nodded in response, "Okay."
After Zhang Mai left, Xie Yining sat back in front of the piano, and put his thin and slender fingers on the keys again.
The melodious melody like a trickle of water sounded, reverberating and dancing in the empty piano room, and at some point disturbed the string buried in the deepest part of my heart.
That year was a crisp autumn, and the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus filled the courtyard. They sat side by side on the steps in front of the courtyard.
The once-in-a-century moon hangs high in the night sky, and strands of silver threads fall down.
——"Brother Yi, what background music do you most want to play when you win the best actor trophy?"
--"Castle in the Sky."
——"Brother Yi, I will play it for you every time you go to receive an award, okay?"
—— "How do you know that I will win the prize every time?"
--"I just know it."
……
On the evening of February 2, the Berlin International Film Festival Awards Ceremony came to an end.
The highly anticipated "Sea Diary" lived up to expectations and won the Golden Bear Award for the main competition unit and the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor.
After the ceremony, the main creator of "Sea Diary", who was the biggest winner tonight, was interviewed. The reporter's long, gun, short, cannon went straight to Mu Qingyi, the new international actor.
in the screen.
The young man has a pair of deep eyes, a straight nose, slightly thin lips, and three-dimensional facial features as if they were sculpted by the best sculptor in the world.
The man was wearing a well-tailored gray suit, his shirt was buttoned to the top, and he was wearing a tie of the same color, showing off his good figure with wide shoulders, narrow hips, tall legs and long legs.The innate cold aura broke through the screen and struck head-on as if it had substance, making people unable to move their eyes away.
The iconic 'dash' brooch on the chest shimmers in the light.
——"Excuse me, is it within your expectation to get the Silver Bear Award?"
--"no."
——"Do you have anything to say about winning such an honor as the best actor in Berlin at the age of 23?"
--"No."
……
The scene was silent for a few seconds as if frozen.
Xie Yining burst into a chuckle, and his peach blossom eyes were full of smiles, "It's still as good as when I was a child." One sentence made people speechless.
He stared at the screen for a while, then reached for the phone beside him.
——"Congratulations on winning the Silver Bear Award."
His callused fingertips were hanging over the 'send' button, and he dared not drop it.
After a long time, the words just typed were deleted one by one, as if they had never appeared before.
Looking at the empty input box, Xie Yining sighed, and lay down on the table with his arms pillowed, speechless for a while.
Almost five years.
He still couldn't get in touch with him calmly.
So he said no thanks to Zhang Mai today, it is really no thanks, because he would agree to help because of selfishness.
Because only with the purpose of helping others, he dared to return to China.
He wants to go back and have a look.
Take a look at what the entertainment circle he is in is like.
The live interview has ended, and the video website automatically jumps to Mu Qingyi's interview cut.
It can be called the classic rollover scene of interviews in the entertainment industry.
Xie Yining looked at it for a while, and couldn't help laughing. He raised his hand and pointed at the man's frowning brows with crooked eyes, and said in a low voice, "I hope you don't get scolded too badly, Berlin Best Actor."
"Ancestor, can't you answer the question properly?"
Chen Heng was really going to be so angry with his artist that he was about to have a heart attack.
It was broadcast live on the whole network, and many domestic and foreign media fans stared at it. This ancestor actually answered 'no' when the reporter asked him how he felt about winning the award. Isn't this a slap in the face?
Chen Heng simply hated iron but steel, "Even if you say 'very happy'!"
In the car, the young international actor was leaning on the back of his chair and dozing off, frowning slightly.
Chen Heng's voice gave him a headache, "I have nothing to say."
Chen Heng choked, and just about to refute, he saw that the person had already turned his head away, leaving the back of his head in vain.
Chen Heng was heartbroken.
He sighed, if other artists won the award, they would not be able to celebrate happily for a few days, but their family is the only one who is not happy every time they receive the award, and those who don't know think it is because they didn't win the award.
Seeing that the air pressure was so low, Chen Heng didn't have the nerve to talk about it any further. He only sent a message to let the domestic public pay attention to the direction of public opinion.
"By the way." After sending Mu Qingyi back to the hotel room, Chen Heng remembered the variety show, and explained: "The information of "Choose Me Inn" has been sent to your email, you should take a look and think about it."
With his back facing him, Mu Qingyi put down the needle, and the melodious piano music played slowly.
Corresponding to that was the cold voice, "No."
Chen Heng: "..."
One day he will be pissed off!
He turned around and walked towards the door, "Look first, whether you want to go or not is another story, but there is an amateur named Xie Yining inside, who looks good and looks good, just look for a newcomer for the studio."
Mu Qingyi froze suddenly.
He turned around straight and looked at Chen Heng at the door, "What did you say his name was?"
Chen Heng was opening the door, but he felt a cold light falling straight on his back, and his back felt cold. He turned around for no reason, and repeated, "Xie Yining."
As he spoke, he thought of something, and added, "It's an overseas student in the United States.

The sky was pattering with rain, and the air was filled with sticky water vapor.
