The next day was cloudy, another ticket opening day at Turner Hall.
The track list and posters spread silently throughout the streets and alleys of every county and city overnight.
Dark as the dead silence of the night, with a few touches of fiery golden yellow, the layout is simple and unpretentious, and the fonts are pure white and neat: "Symphony No. 2 in C minor" "Resurrection".
It was a commercial concert, with a premium ticket price of 30 pounds, which was close to the upper limit of the top ten orchestras, but there was only one solitary piece of music.
There is no upper and lower half, and behind the track list or at the bottom of the poster, there is a dense list of cast and crew, with the number directly exceeding 200 people.
——Everything seems to tell the audience how huge the length and arrangement of this work will be, how grand its epic sound effects and narrative structure will be, and there are more than 80 choirs and singers in the cast and crew.
, is declaring to everyone the ambition of this work to climb to the top of the human spiritual realm.
Premiere of Carolyn Van Ning's "Symphony No. 2".
Marketing, publicity strategies or news media rules were completely ineffective in this case.
In fact, apart from releasing track lists and posters for basic performance and ticket purchase information, Turner Hall does not do any additional promotional activities.
But the footsteps, gazes and attention from around the world are like a trace of impurity core appearing in a cup of supersaturated solution, and the speed of precipitation and polymerization is as unstoppable as the laws of nature taking effect.
The same strategy of split ticket sales was adopted to take care of audiences watching performances in other places. On the first day, 20% of the available ticket warehouses were hurriedly sold out before they could digest the first wave of long queues. As for news reports, which media would
If no space is devoted to this matter, the public may have doubts about the nature of its subject matter.
With Fan Ning's previous performances, especially "Choral Fantasy in C Minor" as an "endorsement", the art world did not think that this premiere would fail, but the result, whether it was a success or a mediocre response, is a highlight in the history of art.
Pen.
Because the process itself is a feat.
Corresponding to the uproar from the outside world, Fan Ning's premiere rehearsals and orchestra affairs are airtight.
"Perhaps 'at noon' needs to wait until a sunny day with suitable weather?"
It was close to noon on the billing day. Fan Ning temporarily returned to the living room from the rehearsal hall, but without any success, he took the two paintings from the viewing balcony back to the cloakroom in the living room.
The special lenses that were briefly taken off for research were put on again.
The look on his face as he stared at the corner showed uncertainty and suspicion, but also a deeper level of urgent worry.
The direction may be this way, or it may not be.
There may or may not be clues in the museum that you haven't discovered yet.
It has been almost a year since the Special Inspection Office successfully contained the wreckage of the "Disaster". Its processing must be tedious and expensive, and it will be even more expensive to truly utilize its mysterious properties, but it has been so long after all...
Maybe they will get a revelation related to the "old days" next month, maybe today, or maybe they have already received it.
Sooner or later, all clues will be re-examined, including the secret door, Vasius, the sealed room and the mobile phone. The investigation may have just been started over, or it may have entered the final stage. …
This couldn't help but make Fan Ning a little worried about the situation on the first day of the performance. The performance itself was fine, but the other things mentioned above?
"Their style is such that you don't feel their presence on weekdays, but once they actually take action, things often progress extremely quickly, and there is no room for recovery."
When he was guiding the school to sign the membership agreement, Dupont said something that impressed him deeply.
The naming of the "Old Symphony Orchestra" was a smoke bomb left by me to resist the revelation, as were the multiple visits and literature searches during that period, which must have played a certain role in interfering with the investigation and delaying time.
I have been collecting information and preparing for responses during this period, including developing the art career as quickly as possible and thoroughly consolidating the "style" of "Lion Forging" in the public's perception, including the intensity of inspiration in "Second Symphony"
On the eve of the premiere, he gradually approached the ninth level limit and became the most valued local leader among the middle-level backbone of the Guidance School.
A profounder in the future, a "new moon" in the future - the highest praise given to Fan Ning by today's supporters or appreciators.
But Fan Ning is very clear that if he removes his current status in the art world and extraordinary organizations, let alone remove them all, if he removes any one of them, what he will receive will not be a polite "routine investigation" by the Special Inspection Office.
The premiere of "Second Symphony"? If there is any suspicion of contamination, kill it directly. This is the most efficient method that suits their style. How can they compromise and let themselves "invite" 15 "friends" to enjoy the music?
Whether they behave in a "domineering" or "cautious" manner depends entirely on who the other party is. Most people who are suspected are "caught first and then investigated", but for some people with special identities, they have to beware of "own goals"
Incident", or it may be labeled as "undermining art and cultural undertakings".
"It's a pity that I am not the Insightr after all, or I may not have direct power, but the gold content is higher and rarer, the artistic master 'Crescent Moon'."
However, if I can dig out some clues on the eve of the premiere, I will be more proactive in dealing with it.
That also depends on the weather and luck.
After coming out of the living room, Fan Ning hurried back to work again and threw himself into intense rehearsals.
However, the weather in this steel city does not seem to be very favorable. Perhaps it is due to industrial pollution, or it may be affected by the ocean currents and typhoons in the Hegdun Sea in the northeast during this season. The following days will either be cloudy or rainy, or short-lived.
The weather was sunny and it was too sunny at the wrong time.
It wasn't until July 19, the day before the premiere, that it completely cleared up in the morning.
At 11:50, he returned to the living room from the rehearsal hall, opened the sloping skylight of the viewing balcony, sat on the wooden floor again, and looked at "Twilight and Wall on the Mountain Top" and "Moonlight on the Dnieper River"
Come.
The sun shines warmly on your body.
But I don’t know what I want to do specifically, so when I think about it, it’s 2 minutes past 12 o’clock.
Then Fan Ning realized a problem.
It is true that noon is 12 noon, but regardless of whether there is sunshine or not, this is only a momentary moment.
If this is a prerequisite, special operations or interpretation prompts may take three to five seconds or a few minutes, and the 12 o'clock moment is fleeting, and it is too late no matter how long it takes. …
What if it is a time period centered around 12 o'clock? It doesn't feel right. How long is it effective? One minute before? Five minutes after? Half an hour before and after?
Perhaps, "at noon" is just a reference?
When the "opportunity" he had been waiting for for two weeks passed in vain in an instant, Fan Ning caught a trace of such rationality.
Recently, although he has been busy day and night, he has also been thinking about the way to interpret the text.
Prophecy is an event that will occur at a certain time or under certain conditions in the future.
Of course, the prophecy brought out by the abnormal zone is too high, so we won't care about it for now. But if Vincent uses this text as a clue, he will use the conditions or methods of "noon" to satisfy the "sunset and moonrise"
, which is very reasonable.
"The meaning of 'noon' has undergone long and rich changes throughout history"
"Originally, its Noaic root refers to a tool similar to a 'pole' or a 'club and pestle'. After adding a specific prefix, the verb became 'to pound with a pestle rod', which differentiated into Tulungaria
At the end of the sentence, due to the lack of adjectives, it has extended a series of meanings with similar abstract cores. Different deformations indicate "the irradiation of the sun", "the process that directly strikes the soul", "the thing that establishes the meaning", "the thing that breaks through the sky"
"Tower" is even a metaphor for "peacemaking in a crude primitive sense", but after reaching the ancient Hofmann language, the meaning of "noon" was gradually solidified to specifically refer to "the irradiation of the sun"..."
"Sunlight?" Fan Ning, who was thinking about the origin of linguistics, couldn't help but look up at the skylight of the observation deck. A beam of sunlight poured in, leaving a brighter rectangular area on the already bright wooden floor.
He moved "Twilight and Wall on the Mountaintop" to this area, but still did not observe anything unusual.
"The 'noon' here is 'noon', which is the moment when the sun is at its highest. Does it need the sunlight to shine vertically on it? But this is unrealistic. In most of the north of Tiolaien, even at 12 noon, the height of the sun at noon is
Without the chance of reaching 90 degrees, you can’t expect me to run to the southern border carrying two paintings..."
Fan Ning's eyes lit up as he thought about it.
"Is it something more general than 'the irradiation of the sun', the 'irradiation of light'?"
He quickly stood up, carried the painting back to the back room, closed the curtains, picked up a retractable desk lamp, turned it on and raised it vertically to illuminate the picture.
Nothing unusual happened in either painting.
"Am I wrong? Or is the light not strong enough to be compared to the sun?"
Fan Ning went to the warehouse to find a stronger military spotlight, but still found no abnormalities.
"Direct sunlight is too difficult, and it's very troublesome for me to realize it. But if it works, it doesn't seem safe enough. If someone happens to shine it directly with strong light, there will be a problem... So, if the thinking direction of 'Noon' is correct,
, it has to be a more special method for me..."
"A more special method?"
Fan Ning flashed a strange expression and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
Although it is turned off, it may not be able to be turned on for nearly a year, right?
He turned on the phone with some worry, and his spiritual sense made him feel that something like a boundary had been broken. The screen was still on, and the power was still intact, 80% unchanged from the last time he turned it off. …
The power charged by the "Tower Man" is different from the charger.
In the text message interface, the unknown existence is still stubbornly reminding itself to "reproduce the music" every day, just like the tampered keys recorded high in the Qiming Church.
Fan Ning ignored it. He turned on the flash and raised it to illuminate vertically.
"...It's only through control..."
Guchaniz language!?...Fan Ning's eyes were glazed over. But why are there just a few lonely words?
However, he immediately realized that this was because the area judged to be vertical was too small.
As the flash moved vertically, the original words disappeared, and more words were displayed:
"After initially leaving detailed impressions, chanting special prayers can control the painting of the Seven Gods' Secret Paintings..."
Similar to the "Martian writing" of the previous life, the radicals of the strokes proliferated, and the word order was partially reversed.
"If this is normal Chinese, and if you understand a little bit of the meaning of the words, there is still hope of inferring it, but if it looks like this... who else can understand it?"
Fan Ning was very puzzled as to why "Guchanizi" became like this.
I don’t know why Vincent knows this language. This can be explained by the fact that he is also a time traveler, or that he once knew something in the abnormal zone, or a combination of the two?
Of course, if he doesn't understand it, he won't understand it, which has little impact on his reading speed.
Basically, you just glance at it, then glance back, and it quickly returns to its normal form in your mind:
"After leaving a preliminary impression of the details, reciting specific prayers can sublimate seven mysterious paintings in a controlled manner, and at the same time call upon the one-time invisible power corresponding to the curse seal, which is approximately close to my average ability to understand the secret technique of the third layer of transportation.
level."
"Deep Dawn Third Level?" Fan Ning's eyes froze for a moment.
My father Vincent in this world, who was the deputy captain of the Aberration Zone Investigation Team and later the director of the Turner Art Museum, is a Seeker who has passed through the three doors?
He is actually on the same level as Luo Yin's father, or President P. Boulez, who guides the school?
"So the specific prayer is?..." Fan Ning pondered for a while, and suddenly remembered that there is another painting "Moonlight Night on the Dnieper River". It is not a mysterious work, but the content is also very special.
So he once again illuminated the text somewhere.
"An answer to the mystical divine title"
"The title of the corresponding mysterious work...means that if I have a preliminary impression of the details and recite the Chinese translation of the corresponding mysterious painting, I can call up the invisible power corresponding to the third level of understanding? But if I just use
Why does it have to be tied to ascending to the 'Gate of Seven Lights' for self-defense?"
Doubts remain doubts, this is undoubtedly an emergency measure.
Now that he knew it, Fan Ning stopped delaying, quickly put them back in the cloakroom, and then returned to work.
"I hope I won't need them in a short time."
By evening, the rehearsal work for the premiere has basically come to an end, leaving only the final steps and local adjustments for tomorrow.
More than 200 performers walked out of Turner Arts Hall one after another.
But late at night, the lights were still on in the music director's office.
"...How long will it take you to wake up each day in the past few days?"
"...Is this so?"
"...listen to some favorite records? Good idea."
"...What about other aspects?"
"...Is this so?"
"...Anyway, a regular auditorium has been demolished here and a pretty good seat has been made. As long as your ears are not broken, you can come here tomorrow sitting or lying down. You can also insist on listening to part of it."
Fan Ning was silent for several seconds before responding to every word Olga said on the other end of the phone.
"You don't have to come over to work first."
"Come directly to the concert tomorrow, that's all."
