Chapter 107: Liu Shihan's Parents [Asking for Recommendation!]
The game hasn't started yet.
At the special price with the best sound quality, a family of three from Huaguo sat there.
A middle-aged man and a young woman, with their precious daughter in the middle. If Jiang Chao saw that girl, he could recognize it at a glance, she was the girl Liu Shihan he met when he participated in the sub-division competition in Kyoto.
"Really, it's really hard for you to take some time to travel with us!" the woman sighed softly.
The middle-aged man shook his head helplessly. He has a boxy face and looks very domineering. Perennially in a high position, any small action shows an extraordinary temperament.
"You like to listen to the classics, shouldn't we go to Vienna?" the man dusted off his cuffs nonchalantly, then pulled up his sleeves and glanced at the time on the Swiss watch.
Liu Shihan pouted and pulled the corner of his father's clothes: "Dad, don't look at the watch!"
The man smiled dumbly and touched his daughter's head: "Okay, dad won't look at it." ”
The woman laughed, "You know what." There is a saying that if you want to hear the original Chopin, the best way to come to the German Prize, the five-year German Prize, especially the final, is more wonderful than the concerts of many masters!"
The man shook his head indifferently. In his opinion, how can the contestants be comparable to the masters who have been tested in the market? A mature man doesn't waste time talking to women about these inconsequential things.
After a pause, the woman said again: "Moreover, this competition is a must for the daughter, and you don't know it." ”
The man touched his daughter's head: "Shihan, tell me why you like that brother?"
Liu Shihan remembered Jiang Chao's appearance, and said with a smile: "That brother plays well!"
The man smiled dumbly.
He is a pure businessman, and unlike those successful people of the "rich second generation" abroad, his current achievements are created by his wandering on the edge of the cliff and in the quagmire again and again. In the past, he was born in the countryside, and he often laughed at himself for being a clay leg, and he was not interested in classical music. It's only in recent years that the plate has become big enough that I have some leisure time to cultivate these hobbies, but I can listen to classical music, but I may not be able to understand it. He's a consequentialist man, how good can a hairy kid who hasn't won a grand prize play?
In the same way, these words will not be spoken by men. After having the wealth that others can't earn in dozens of lifetimes, men see everything very openly, except for their daughter, and her happiness has become one of the few pursuits of men.
Since the daughter likes it, let her like it. Other little girls like some messy entertainment stars, but what my daughter likes is something that is on the table, isn't it?
The man thought of something, took advantage of his daughter's lack of attention, took a quick look at the watch, and then silently hid the watch back in his sleeve.
But this scene was seen by his wife, and she sighed, "What, there is business again?"
The man apologized slightly: "There are just a few partners in the beautiful country. I figured since they were all here, I might as well go and meet them. ”
The women were a little helpless, they were originally here for tourism, and coming to see the German Prize was just one of the plans. But along the way, the men are busy with business, and this trip is not satisfactory.
Liu Shihan heard the conversation between her parents and looked at her father innocently, and then said with some sadness: "Dad, if you are busy, go and be busy with you!"
Looking at his sensible daughter, the man's heart softened, I have created so much wealth, isn't it just to make my family happy? Sometimes, I still stop and think about it, and don't put the cart before the horse. So he said gently: "Don't worry, daughter, Dad will accompany you to the concert today and then go to work!"
Liu Shihan suddenly became happy and clapped his hands: "Long live Dad!"
……
The first person to perform was a pianist from South Korea. A man in his thirties, his skills are very exquisite, and the judges nodded their heads again and again. And Liu Shihan was not interested, constantly searching for Jiang Chao's figure.
Messerine hesitated for a moment and disturbed Jiang Chao again: "The next one is me." ”
Jiang Chao was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Come on!"
Mercelyn smiled and got up to wait backstage.
……
After Maitherine came to power, she changed her temperament in an instant. Brilliant pianists often have a trait, that is, they are easy to become the material for contributing memes to others. Lang Lang is one of them. Matherine also has this trait, but her exaggerated expression does not lower her appearance, but makes it easier for the audience to immerse herself.
After the performance began, the scene became solemn.
Typhoon Merceline was very good.
Her delicate fingers jump between the keys, and every dance step requires just the right amount of strength and precision, and her expression is relaxed and enjoyable.
Wu Bufan nodded again and again in the audience, and Liu Shihan's father also narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a very enjoyable expression.
And in one corner, the expert Jiang Chao wanted to know, Banner Stark, shook his head very intoxicated, and his expression was exaggerated.
What a wonderful Chopin!
Banner Stark nodded contentedly, even if it was just to hear Maitherine play. As a scientist, Chopin was one of Banner's few hobbies, and his love for Chopin can be described as fanatical.
Banner traced all of Chopin's life trajectories – he experienced life, love, and death. Life for him is not just about danger, reward and yearning for heroic causes. He fought within the walls of his soul.
Chopin's music also changed with Chopin's life experience - Chopin's music is certainly not static, and Chopin's music from different periods should be interpreted in different moods.
But Banner still has a hint of regret. Maitherine brilliantly interprets the melancholy of Chopin's piece. The melody itself is sad, and a sad elegance runs through the piece. The harmony is even more beautiful, but the chords of the 10th and above intervals are no longer new to Banner, and although this piece is also an authentic Chopin, like a gourmand who often eats the same dish, he also occasionally hopes for a taste of surprise.
I've heard this taste so many times.
Still, Banner was satisfied.
The Mertherine show is over, and Banner is still a little unsatisfied.
But the next performance was not so perfect.
Banner couldn't help but frown at the next few performers. Audible, they played steadily, but as if they had been trained, they were always a little bit less interesting, and this difference made Banner feel as uncomfortable as scratching his boots.
Banner couldn't help but sigh, it seems that he shouldn't have too high expectations, and it is already a surprise to have a Merceline this year.
Just then, the next contestant took the stage.
Jiang Chao slowly walked to the piano and smiled.
The piece he prepared was quite difficult.
