Chapter 177: The First March of Tokyo Metropolitan Government
() Tokyo Haneda International Airport.
It is probably not yet the peak tourist season in the city, and the whole airport is not too lively.
"There aren't many people. ”
After getting off the plane, the three of them, one old and two young people, had just finished picking up their luggage, listening to the unfamiliar voices chattering around, Qin Jian was also at ease, pushing the suitcase and following the pace of the uncle.
"It's not late March yet, and when the cherry blossoms come in, there will be more tourists. The one on the side explained categorically.
Qin Jian said with a puzzled face when he heard the sound: "Have you been here?"
"No," Duan Ran shook his head, "I've been checking the travel guide for the past two days, and it was mentioned above." ”
"We'll take a look at it then, okay?"
"Good. ”
"And I've heard there's a lot of good food here. ”
"Good. ”
"I also want to go to Miyazaki's museum, I want to go to TV Tokyo. ”
"Hmm"
"Akihabara is also a must-go if you have time. ”
"Okay. ”
"By the way, and..."
Qin Jian: ....
The first time she went abroad, the girl seemed a little excited, and she also became chattering along the way, which made Qin Jian more or less unaccustomed.
......
10:30。
The group of three finally arrived at the hotel they had booked in Shinjuku City.
As soon as he entered the room, Qin Jian first reported his safety to his family, and then contacted Liao Linjun, asked about the next schedule, and then rushed into the bathroom to take a shower.
Around noon.
After briefly sorting out the accompanying luggage, the three of them set off to forage for food, and ate a lunch that Qin Jian thought was extremely dissatisfied with at a ramen restaurant near the hotel.
For a bowl of ramen for 50 yuan for lunch, Qin Jian really couldn't find any other adjectives except for being unpalatable.
And the other two seemed to think it was not bad, which made Qin Jian have to worry about the food problems in the next half month.
After the meal, the three of them casually walked around the neighborhood and determined the location of the hotel and some basic facilities nearby, and then the group returned to the hotel again.
"You guys take a lunch break first, our itinerary is relatively simple today, and I will call you in the afternoon. Old Potter said, and the three of them went back to their rooms.
Enter the lunch break.
......
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, with the arrival of a strange man, the three of them set off again.
......
As a well-known musical instrument audio brand, YAHA has become the largest musical instrument manufacturer after decades of development, and the company is distributed all over the world.
As the general sponsor of the Mozart International Music Competition, YAH not only provided a place for contestants from all over Asia to practice during the competition.
"As long as the contestants provide their participation badges for this competition, they can practice at any Yaha official musical instrument store. ”
Old Porter, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head and looked at the two people in the back seat, "Do you understand?" ”
Qin Jian really understood this sentence, and from the moment he got into the car, he could only listen to the conversation between the strange man sitting in the driver's seat and the old Porter chattering in English.
Of course, he can understand individual words, such as yaha, ok, good, you, but what's the use?
In contrast, Duan Ran on the side could occasionally interject in English.
This made Qin Jian feel that he had been completely left out.
Along the way, though, the sights along the way are still good.
The tall buildings on both sides of the street are very modern, and the occasional flowery alley has a different exotic atmosphere.
Gradually, with the scenery outside the window, Qin Jian's mood also relaxed, and he glanced at the happy girl beside him.
"Hey, it seems like it's a good trip. ”
Qin Jian sighed secretly in his heart, and leaned his head back on the backrest.
"The game starts the day after tomorrow, and I don't know who the opponents will be this time. ”
Youth group.
That's a bit too big.
"Hey, be happy. Suddenly feeling the shaking of his arm, Qin Jian turned his head, Duan Ran was grabbing his arm, "Don't be lifeless!"
Qin Jian smiled, and then turned his face away.
"Good —————"
.......
Fifteen minutes later.
The car stopped in front of an arched building.
After getting out of the car, the strange man said a few words to Old Porter and left.
"Let's go, let's take a look at the main piano arena, which is the Tokyo Opera Concert Hall. ”
Qin Jian knows a little about the Tokyo Opera Concert Hall, but it seems to be much smaller than the National Center for the Performing Arts from the outside.
After a circle, under the introduction of old Porter, the two also had a certain understanding of the situation here.
"Uncle Potter, are you still in charge of the official tuning of the competition this time?"
"That's right, it's part of my job, and your designated instruments will have to be reviewed by me when the time comes. ”
After a pause, the old man continued, "There are only two options for the competition in the Asian region, YAH and KAWAI, and now the place we are going to is the instrument exhibition hall. ”
"It's just ahead, and it's coming soon. ”
......
As he spoke, the group of three passed by a small chamber music theater, and through the glass window, a small string orchestra on the stage seemed to be rehearsing.
"Figaro's wedding. Listening to the melody in his ears, Duan Ran spoke.
"Yes, it's an orchestra of folk enthusiasts from Tokyo who will participate in this chamber music competition. ”
"It's amazing. ”
An orchestra formed by enthusiasts?
Qin Jian's brows furrowed slightly, listening to the movement, he thought it was a professional string orchestra at first.
It is true that the development of classical music in China is much stronger than that in China.
"Hey. ”
.......
With all sorts of music coming from the hallway, the three of them arrived at the instrument gallery.
As soon as I pushed the door, the huge exhibition hall was full of various musical instruments, and many people with contestant cards around their necks were adjusting the instruments in their hands.
In an instant, Qin Jian felt the smell of the waiting hall before the game.
At this moment, a uniformed staff member came over enthusiastically, chattering a lot, and showing great respect to Old Porter.
Moment.
"Let's go, let's go to the piano section. ”
Coming to the piano exhibition area, there are already many players already trying out the piano in front of one piano after another.
There were people gathered around to communicate in different languages, and judging by the color of their skin, they were indeed Asian.
There are also a few old blacks, probably Ah San, Qin Jian was thinking in his heart, at this moment.
"You two can turn it yourself, you can try the piano here, but remember to hang up your participation badges. Old Potter said, and walked towards a female Ah San without looking back, and then opened his arms, "Oh, dear~"
Looking at the surprised expression and exaggerated mouth on the female Ah San's face, Qin Jian's worldview collapsed by another inch.
"Legendary bartender. ”
