At this moment, Jiang Chao received a call from Lang Lang.

He quickly picked it up. As soon as it was connected, Lang Lang congratulated Jiang Chao: "Congratulations!"

Jiang Chao was stunned: "Huh?"

Lang Lang said: "I heard from a friend that the date of the signing ceremony between you and DG was set for the day after tomorrow. ”

Jiang Chao was slightly stunned, the signing ceremony with DG was this month, yes, but on what day Jiang Chao had not been notified by Old John, why did Lang Lang know in advance? But after thinking about it, he reacted, with Lang Lang's current status in the piano world, it is not difficult to get this news.

Lang Lang said: "I heard a few friends say that they listened to a concerto you wrote, which was played by my sister Messerine, and their praise was overflowing, saying that it was very good. Unfortunately, I haven't heard it yet, and I'm looking forward to your soundtrack!"

Jiang Chao said with a smile: "In fact, it has been recorded and is ready to be released simultaneously on the day of the signing ceremony." ”

Lang Lang's tone was obviously a little excited: "Yes? That's really good, I must support the vinyl version as soon as possible! Can you show me the score?"

Jiang Chao said, "Hmm...... The score will also be hung with DG, and if there is a concert at that time, you can directly ask DG for authorization. ”

Jiang Chao, as a contracted artist of DG, has the right to act as an agent for the copyright property rights of Jiang Chao's music scores and handle licensing matters during the contract period, but Jiang Chao has to pay a fee each time.

Lang Lang nodded on the other end of the phone, already expecting it in his heart, he was a pure pianist, and he was far from having attainments in composition. In addition to the classic songs that have been handed down for hundreds of years, I will also practice the music composed by the composers of this era from time to time. If Jiang Chao's music is really amazing, Lang Lang will also consider performing it at his own recital.

Not long after hanging up the phone with Lang Lang, Old John called over. He has already arrived in China and talked to Jiang Chao about the signing ceremony straight to the point.

Although Jiang Chao had been mentally prepared for Lang Lang's call, he was still a little excited to receive this call at this time, and the two said some key matters on the phone, so they made an appointment with a time and place to discuss in detail.

……

There is no doubt that Jiang Chao is already very famous in the piano world. But the embarrassing thing in China is that although many fans of classical music have heard his name, if Jiang Chao stands in front of them, they may not be able to recognize Jiang Chao.

And the majority of ordinary people are even more so. Although Jiang Chao even showed his face on the news broadcast at the six-city cooperation forum that day, there are too many major events happening in China every day, and no one will pay attention to the news in such a small corner for tens of seconds.

Therefore, Jiang Chao is still rarely recognized when he walks on the street - most of the people who can recognize Jiang Chao at this time are extremely tasteful.

Of course, Jiang Chao is happy to keep a low profile, he doesn't like to be overly concerned, if he has to wear masks and sunglasses when walking on the street, or there are a bunch of paparazzi following him to take pictures at any time, and crazy fans are blocking the road at any time, that is an extremely terrifying thing.

At this time, even if Jiang Chao has fans, the quality of those fans is often extremely high, at most he takes a photo with Jiang Chao very politely, and he will stop if he wants to communicate with idols.

The signing ceremony was held in Tokai City, in the Tokai Concert Hall. To this end, under the organization of DG, the Tokai Concert Hall has launched a special recital.

DG invited a number of well-known artists, in addition to instrumentalists and opera artists, to help and welcome Jiang Chao to join the DG family. It was a luxurious auditory feast for those who followed classical music, and many people booked tickets for the day early after the news was released.

Jiang Chao couldn't help but have a deeper sense of belonging to DG.

Before the signing ceremony, Jiang Chao came to the backstage of the concert hall early. Old John took Jiang Chao and introduced him to many of his artists. In addition to some foreign masters who have only heard of his name and have never seen the deity, there are also Wang Yujia and Li Yundi from Huaguo to help, and Lang Lang, who has known him for a long time, is also present.

Everyone sees Jiang Chao as an artist of the same level. And this is still the premise that most of them have not heard Jiang Chao's "Piano Concerto in D major". Old John has released the news that this signing ceremony will launch Jiang Chao's first single record at the same time. This has added a lot of expectations to the signing ceremony.

The concert officially began.

A well-known musician took turns on the stage, presenting a luxurious auditory feast for the audience.

The final finale was Jiang Chao's concerto, performed by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and renowned pianist Marta Argerich of DG. Seeing that this legendary female pianist was going to play her own tune, Jiang Chao couldn't help but feel excited in his heart.

Known as the daughter of music, Martha Argerich has a passionate style, and although she is now in her sixties, her zest for life has not diminished in the slightest. Jiang Chao's piece is played by this legendary pianist and shows a completely different style from Jiang Chao himself.

If Jiang Chao's original version is a song of pure emotion, and Merceline's version is a song of young girls, then Marta Argerich's version is a summary of life after going through the wind and frost. The same understanding of first love, her version is deeper, her technique is impeccable, perfect, and imposing, and it is hard to believe that these powers come from a man who is less than 1.6 meters tall.

The tune was too new for those present. Of course, there are those who have heard the version played by Maitherine and know the origin of this piece. But most people listen to it for the first time, and they think it's a new work by a world-famous composer, and they wonder who the author is.

The applause continued.

Finally, it was time for the exciting signing session. All the artists and special guests who have performed were invited to the stage to witness Jiang Chao joining the family.

Under the auspices of Old John, Jiang Chao got up and took the stage. The final ceremony is actually very simple, Jiang Chao signed his name on the contract, and it was completed. But the previous foreshadowing was enough to push this simple signing to a climax, and the applause rang out again for a long time.

After that, Old John continued to announce that the finale was Jiang Chao's "Piano Concerto in D Major", and announced that the record of this piece will be released today!

For a time, the scene was in an uproar.

The piece just now, which has a complete structure, a beautiful melody, and an impeccable detail, actually came from Jiang Chao? Oh my God! Some knowledgeable people can't help but think of the late masters such as Beethoven and Chopin......

What artists value most about DG is that as a brand under Universal Music, it has intensive channels around the world, and if the quality of the works is high, it will soon become popular all over the world. Knowledgeable people have realized that Jiang Chao's song may soon appear in concert halls around the world!
