Eight hundred and sixty seventh chapter docile(1/2)
The two chatted for more than ten minutes. Because Yang Jingxing declined some of the conductor's goodwill and enthusiasm, the other words were quite formal. After establishing some artistic friendship, Yang Jingxing also asked Yeromil to help take care of Yu Xinting, because she was taken care of by his
I respect my teacher as if I were my daughter.
Veronica is still waiting for Yang Jingxing. Based on her experience, there will usually be active or passive follow-up activities after a successful performance. Judging from the situation tonight, it is difficult to estimate how many media will be waiting at the hotel tomorrow morning.
With the appearance of Yang Jingxing, TV programs will definitely have to be selected from dozens of companies. As for the subsequent work of transcribing news and music reviews related to newspapers and websites, it will definitely be a huge workload...
Maybe the atmosphere of the art market is different, but Yang Jingxing is still not interested, and there is no need to make any arrangements, so he also asked Veronica to get off work.
Yang Jingxing remembered to be polite, shook hands and thanked the other party for his help these days: "...If you go to Puhai, you must let me know."
Winoni is that kind of national face again: "I have come into contact with many musicians, and you are the most ordinary and the most special. I don't know how to express this feeling. It really makes me feel very honored."
Yang Jingxing seemed to have adapted to the foreign culture: "I'm also glad to meet you..."
The Americans were also in a hurry to get off work. It was only after ten o'clock, and the concert had just ended for more than half an hour. There was no one in the office area. Yang Jingxing walked all the way to Yu Xinting's office and met two administrative staff.
The person who opened the door for Yang Jingxing was Le Xian, still with a beaming expression: "Finished? I'm on the phone..."
Yu Xinting and Kong Chenhe were both holding phones and standing at both ends of the floor-to-ceiling windows. Kong Chenhe looked festive, while Yu Xinting was more serious, as if she was a little aggrieved.
Seeing Yang Jingxing, Kong Chenhe lowered his voice, but sped up: "...he's here...probably not, go back on time...I don't care...oh my God, how is it possible, it has nothing to do with me...
Let’s not talk about it for now… We’ll talk about it tomorrow… Okay, you’ll check the time later and you can call me… It’s super expensive… I’ve hung up…”
Ai Ziran shook hands with Yang Jingxing and expressed congratulations, as if he didn't know what to say, and looked at Yu Xinting, who was still listening to the phone.
It is estimated that the other end of the phone is a parent or a teacher. Yu Xinting can also express gentleness through some modal particles: "...um...I know...um...oh...I don't have it, so you should pay attention...I won't say it for now, they
Still here...um...you know..."
After hanging up the phone, Yu Xinting turned around, trying to break away from the emotion of being a daughter. As soon as possible, she showed the brilliance that a girl should have among friends, and tried to think of a topic: "...Oh, they just asked me to convey congratulations. There are Wilson, Frank
, it’s the principal cello, and there’s a lot of pressure, and the French horn who talked to you yesterday, the one with the beard..."
Yang Jingxing found it difficult to see Yu Xinting almost counting her fingers to make the list, and smiled: "Have you called the professor?"
Yu Xinting nodded repeatedly: "The first one was beaten... Anyway, there were more than a dozen people, oh, and Grace."
Le Xian added: "I originally wanted to wait for you, but I said you don't have to wait until any time..."
Yang Jingxing was grateful: "That's what I was afraid of. Fortunately."
Le Xian finished explaining the reason: "Besides, time is precious now, and we only have one day tomorrow."
Yu Xinting said: "An Xin has also been beaten, senior sister hasn't been beaten yet, and Tiantian hasn't been beaten either..."
Yang Jingxing was amused: "Does it need to be so grand? Let's go, Xiaohe is waiting to go to your place for supper."
The three sisters quickly packed up their things. Lexian had nothing to prepare, so she asked Yang Jingxing: "What do you say over there?"
Yang Jingxing asked: "Are you driving? Send me off."
Le Xian was very generous and nodded repeatedly: "No problem."
Ai Ziran asked: "You... don't go for a midnight snack?"
Yang Jingxing shook his head: "You have agreed on what time we will gather tomorrow, and you must take me with you."
Le Xian smiled: "Definitely... Xin Ting should also relax well these two days, I understand." Looking at Yang Jingxing again: "I just said that it is really good, it is the first time to be on such a stage, the mental quality!
"
Ai Ziran wanted to hug Yu Xinting again: "I'm so happy for you..."
But Yang Jingxing was disdainful: "It's only a few steps, but you haven't shown your skills yet... They look down on you."
Yu Xinting said: "Xiaohe wants to eat Japanese Teppanyaki. Do you want to go?"
Yang Jingxing was easy-going: "You decide."
Yu Xinting made arrangements: "Let's go to Flushing in the morning, have barbecue at noon, go shopping in the afternoon, and have Teppanyaki in the evening, okay?"
Yang Jingxing nodded repeatedly: "I came here just for food and shopping."
Le Xian hehe: "Well, the five minutes of cheers today are secondary!"
Ai Ziran said sincerely: "This is the first time I have experienced this... I have to insist on it, it's so fierce!" His dialect came out.
Yang Jingxing looked at Yu Xinting: "Of course I teach you so seriously, and that's how you do it?"
Yu Xinting said, "Hey, hey, hey, he also corrected Qi Ziran's pronunciation: "Yes... I insist on getting it, getting it, and stretching it out a little bit."
Not to be outdone, Kong Chenhe, the second sister, also taught the eldest sister, so sharp and exciting...
Several people came to the garage. The black driver, who had been waiting all night in vain, didn't look depressed. He even said some kind words before leaving. Then Yang Jingxing also made an appointment with the three sisters to meet at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. He would go to Yu Xinting's place by himself, so there was no need to pick him up.
When both parties got on the bus, Le Xian was not in a hurry. He reached out of the window to signal Ai Ziran to go first, and then smiled at Yang Jingxing: "They are all very happy and cheering."
Yang Jingxing said: "Yeromil is preparing to rehearse a concerto. I am nosy and recommend you to conduct it, but it will not be of much use. What he said...means that he is willing to give a chance, but it depends on the results. I think there is no problem."
Le Xian became serious: "Thank you...I'll do my best."
Yang Jingxing said: "Que Yu Xinting is very familiar with her. You can communicate with her after the news comes out."
Le Xian nodded: "I know how to do it and I won't let you down. I will listen to the recording carefully."
Yang Jingxing said: "You don't need to think too much about her. I think it's the same everywhere. You can do better from your own perspective."
Le Xian nodded again: "This is clear and measured."
Yang Jingxing said: "The country is too busy, so I won't come over next time. Record it for me during rehearsal. There may be some important media then, so you can prepare in advance."
Le Xian nodded seriously, and then smiled: "Not necessarily...but I still ask, how are these things arranged for Yu Xinting?"
Yang Jingxing thought for a while: "Let her make her own decision. You can remind her and give her suggestions... I guess she is still a little reluctant to let go. It's okay. There is a process."
Le Xianhehe, speaking English: "Lucky girl... go back to the hotel?"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "Let's go..."
We arrived at the hotel in a few minutes. The lobby service seemed to be eagerly anticipating Yang Jingxing and came to congratulate Yang Jingxing on the success of the performance. Then there were two reporters who had been waiting for some time.
The reporters had already arrived, and a man and a woman rushed to introduce themselves. They seemed to have a good background, one was an international pioneer, and the other was from the postal service of some city.
Yang Jingxing shook hands and thanked others for their attention, but he did not accept interviews. No matter how much the other party praised, boasted, or was sincere, he would not change his mind.
Today, the lobby service also sent Yang Jingxing into the elevator. Yang Jingxing explained everything about tomorrow. Apart from breakfast and laundry, if anyone comes to interview, please help the hotel explain.
The hotel expressed its willingness to help Yang Jingxing issue a statement, but it had no right to stop others from waiting, so it suggested that Yang Jing walk through a special passage. You must know that the Plaza Hotel has served many celebrities and has rich experience, so it is a guest like Yang Jingxing.
A great choice…
Back in the room, before eleven o'clock, Yang Jingxing called home first. Yang Chengyi was very romantic today and went to his wife's work to pick someone up for lunch. The couple almost rushed to the phone to inquire from different angles and express different opinions. However,
In the end, they all agreed that Yang Jingxing should go home quickly.
After his parents, Yang Jingxing said the same thing to Li Yingzhen, it was okay, nothing bad happened.
But Li Yingzhen was well-informed: "Xinting told me... I don't care. You, the other teachers and the principal, especially Mr. Ding, still have to be realistic and wait for your news. They worry a lot and make them more happy..."
Li Yingzhen thought wrong, He Hongchui was quite indifferent, and Ding Sangpeng didn't care much about the performance. Only Gong Xiaoling only hated herself for not being there.
It was almost twelve o'clock when Yang Jingxing dialed Qi Qingnuo's number.
Qi Qingnuo was very energetic: "Tell me, I'm ready to be envious."
Yang Jingxing said no: "Nothing to say...have you eaten?"
Qi Qingnuo sighed: "Get ready to go out, the hostess is not here... Be happy and don't affect other people's emotions."
Yang Jingxing said: "Nothing else, I will give you gifts when I get back."
Qi Qingnuo was pleasantly surprised: "It's true, I'm telling you."
Yang Jingxing said: "Just let it go and hang up."
The next morning, the waiter brought not only breakfast but also newspapers. Both newspapers were opened in the music review section related to the new concert. I have to say that this newspaper was quite efficient.
Yang Jingxing can basically understand it. The New York Times article begins with: I don’t know when it started, but my patience with the changes and development speed of classical music has gradually shrunk. Even though I know that any musical language is likely to accept new ideas and new ideas.
Talent will last forever, but this confidence has not been strongly proved for a long time, until yesterday...
As the general election approaches, the length of the music review is not too small. It is estimated to be three to four thousand words. It basically maintains the consistent style of this famous music reviewer. The overall appearance is neutral and objective, with almost no praise or derogatory words.
Use with caution, it looks like a third party’s objective description plus rational explanation.
The music review devoted one-fifth of its space to a historical introduction and summary of New Ireland's new music concert, recognizing the importance of this form to the development of music, although the results have not been very significant for a long time.
In the other fifth of the space, the music critic comments on the first half of the concert. Although it is an objective evaluation without personal preference, it can also be seen that the author has a deep appreciation for the first and second pieces.
I agree with the difference, probably because I feel that the first overture is a mixture of multiple cultures, which is certainly more appropriate in an art center. The second overture is a very personal theoretical display and practice, and it is normal for most people not to deeply understand and explore it.
Regarding Yang Jingxing's Symphony No. 1, the music critic devoted two-fifths of the space to an academic discussion. Although it did not involve musical terms, there were many subjective emotional terms. It seemed that the music critic was also breaking through himself.
For example, he wrote about explicit sadness, elegant love songs, horrific scenes, solemn redemption...
There are also other descriptions in the music reviews such as "full of tension, penetration of warmth, holy light..." If the description seems like praise, then descriptions such as moody, sharp, lack of compassion, and aggressiveness should be doubts about the work.
.
The music critics did not summarize and characterize the symphony, and did not say whether it was good or bad. The only thing that can be regarded as a summary is that the work must have a huge impact.
What makes Yang Jingxing even more sentimental is that the music review did not mention a single good word about the composer, such as great, wonderful, outstanding, shining... not a single word was used, even when mentioning that the composer was a pianist,
