Chapter 749: Jump
The breakup was relatively early, but the bedtime phone call was made by Qi Qingnuo to Yang Jingxing: "After thinking about it for a while, I seem to be making a little fuss, and you are not unforgivable, so I will take back some words...... But you don't need it, it's all Chrysostom. The girl seemed to be laughing.
Yang Jingxing said: "How can I take it back, it is all a positive request, I am full of energy, don't discourage my enthusiasm." ”
Qi Qingnuo was curious: "Do you let me, or do you only have so many expectations for me." ”
Yang Jingxing said: "It's not ...... That's what I should ask you. ”
Qi Qingnuo chuckled: "It seems that he is really conscious...... Let's take a step back, you're kind, and I'm a little bit more reactive. However, I'm also a real woman, so you still have to pay attention to the way. ”
Yang Jingxing said: "Obviously, Nuo Nuo took two steps back, no, I can't be willing to fall behind......"
At seven o'clock on Wednesday morning, Yang Jingxing received a call from Grace, saying that the interview with the five candidates had been completed in the morning, and Le Xian also accepted her request and enthusiastically helped test the interviewers' Chinese level. All things considered, Grace wanted to hire a twenty-six-year-old woman named Ariana.
This Ariana's Chinese name on her resume is "Ai Nature", and Yang Jingxing chatted with her more happily that night. Ariana was born in a small town in Upstate to an elementary school teacher, a police officer, and a brother and sister.
Ariana studied at a university in a small city called Syracuse, where she said there were quite a few Chinese living in the area, and there were some Chinese students at the school, and her Chinese was slowly introduced and spontaneously learned during college. Although Ariana has never been to China, after being trained by some Chinese friends, she can laugh when she sees cross talk.
Because she studied art and design, of course, there was no use in the countryside, so after graduating from college, Ariana went to New York to pursue her dream, and her short-term goal was to open a solo art exhibition, which needed funds, so the job offered by New Ireland for an expected eight to ten months was just right.
Ariana is now living in her brother-in-law's house on Long Island, and it just so happens that Grace and Yang Jingxing want to go together again, wanting to find a place for Yu Xinting in Queens to live closer to Manhattan.
Yang Jingxing's knowledge of New York comes from Gan Kaicheng, her daughter has been living in New York for five or six years, it is said that the security of Queens is good, but it is not prosperous enough, and the transportation is not very convenient, unlike Puhai, where the subway is everywhere.
One of the things that Grace values more is that she thinks Ariana is a passionate person, and she is also an art worker, so she should be able to help Yu Xinting understand and adapt to foreign life faster.
Yang Jingxing said that Grace's choice was wise, and suggested that Ariana should start working as soon as possible, perhaps to help Grace.
At Hongxing, the arranger meeting was held, everyone auditioned and discussed and passed the completion of more than half of the arrangement tasks, Yang Jingxing rushed back to the school, it was already eleven o'clock, quickly called Yu Xinting, and Lu Kaiping took him to see the principal.
Lu Kaiping once again emphasized the principal's great kindness to Yu Xinting, but the purpose was to spur encouragement: "...... Don't forget that you are a student of Puyin, a student of Professor Li, and don't forget these people who have helped you, you must mix it up...... You know, for whom?"
Yang Jingxing said to Yu Xinting: "It's not easy for the director, even the work of the counselor is contracted. ”
Yu Xinting didn't dare to laugh, and Lu Kaiping explained: "I also look at people......"
Entering the principal's office, Lu Kaiping was formal: "Principal Yang, you are busy...... The student is leaving, so while you are here, come and report to you and see if you have any instructions......"
The principal didn't instruct, but was very kind to Yu Xinting: "Sit down...... You're all set...... How's it going...... That's good...... Director Lu and Professor Li had a lot of worries...... Are Mom and Dad here?"
Lu Kaiping always likes to answer: "In a few days, come and accompany me for two days, I must be happy, but I can't bear it." ”
The principal smiled at Yu Xinting: "My opinion, this time I went to New Zealand, it is another study, and there is not much difference between walking into Puyin from the middle school campus, the new environment, new classmates and new teachers, adapt again, and succeed again." You can stand out among so many piano students, and you have to stand out in New Ireland. ”
Lu Kaiping was simply excited: "Principal Yang said it too well. ”
Yu Xinting seemed to have prepared in advance, and nodded to the principal: "Thank you for your encouragement." ”
The principal said: "Remember, everything is about persistence and mentality, and I look forward to you being Zeng Hui for your alma mater." ”
Lu Kaiping heard it: "Thank you, Principal Yang, you are busy, let's go." ”
Yang Jingxing said: "Principal, I still have something to report to you. ”
The principal nodded, and then said to Yu Xinting: "There are still many things to prepare, go ahead, I wish you a smooth journey." ”
Yu Xinting and Lu Kaiping thanked them for their farewell, and Yang Jingxing turned on the computer he brought: "...... Qi Qingnuo is in a class, called Peng Yiwei, I think this work is very good, you can take a look. ”
The principal took about ten minutes, and nodded a few times in affirmation: "...... The technology is relatively mature...... Good idea...... Well done...... Did you do it independently?"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "It's good that Peng Yiwei has had a quartet before, and Director He is also very sure of this work, but he feels that some details are not particularly perfect, so he is a little hesitant." Anyway, I think it's good, and I want you to see it, so that I don't feel a little lonely at school. ”
The principal was amused, and he didn't hit Yang Jingxing, and asked, "Have you discussed it with Director He?"
Yang Jingxing said: "It is best to recommend Puhai Spring, waiting for you to make a decision." ”
The principal said: "It's a good thing, you cooperate with Director He, you are also familiar with the music festival, and if there is anything difficult to do, tell me again." ”
Yang Jingxing nodded: "Okay." ”
The principal encouraged: "The role of the catalyst is to be reflected slowly, not too anxious, to be efficient, to be effective, so we should be cautious in our choice...... You can give it a try this time. ”
Yang Jingxing: "With your support, my confidence has doubled." ”
However, the principal is most concerned about the editorial board at present, Tang Qing said that it has been almost done, but the old man can't see things or people, it's really anxious, but people are old-timers......
When Yang Jingxing and the principal came out, the cafeteria was closed, and the principal still had something to do, so Yang Jingxing went outside the school to find something to make do, and called Peng Yiwei: "Do what you say, pick you up...... Of course I did...... Think you're not doing your best, and to be honest, is there room for it?"
Peng Yiwei asked, "What do you mean?"
Yang Jingxing said: "It's not what I meant, Lao He meant......"
As soon as Peng Yiwei heard about the possibility of this good thing, he was busy rushing back to the school to discuss, but Yang Jingxing couldn't wait, so he could only talk about it on the phone.
At half past one in the afternoon, Yang Jing walked into the teaching building, still holding a textbook, and was surprised by many classmates, asking him, "Come to class?"
Yang Jingxing didn't have anything to be proud of, when he walked into the small classroom on the sixth floor, there were already more than a dozen sophomores in the piano department, and they said hello to their classmates, Yang Jingxing sat in the back, and there were only about 20 tables and chairs in the classroom.
The boy came over and said, "I didn't come last week, what have you been busy with lately?"
Yang Jingxing said: "Busy. ”
Yang Jingxing was not busy with any clues, so that now his classmates seem to have a topic with him: "Yu Xinting's matter, right?"
Yang Jingxing shook his head: "I can't help, it's all school...... Did Senior Sister name me last week?"
The classmate laughed: "I don't want to order you." ”
Professor Hu's students also came over: "Fourth, is there a program on May Day?"
Yang Jingxing shook his head: "I may not have ......"
Within two minutes, Yu Xinting and An Xin came, and the two of them walked into the classroom without any emotion, and they were a little surprised when they saw Yang Jingxing, but they didn't come over to ask long questions, so they sat down in front.
may feel that Yu Xinting and An Xin don't care about Yang Jingxing, and several classmates are too lazy to greet him, so they all go back to their seats, or care about Yu Xinting's arrangements, as if they still have to say that they want to see him off.
Zhang Chujia was really faceless, when she walked into the classroom, there were still three students who didn't come. However, Teacher Zhang was very familiar, and he didn't look at Yang Jingxing twice, and started standing by the podium: "Okay, let's recall the content of the last class first......"
Zhang Chujia is still very serious in preparing for class, and when he talks about it, he can appropriately diverge according to the content of the book, and he also encourages everyone to discuss.
When Haydn composed the piano sonata, what were the characteristics of the arrangement of the movements, and could you recall and summarize it by yourself without reading the book?
Okay, what are the minor tunes? Yang Jingxing said.
Yang Jingxing answered correctly, but he was not praised.
After the first class, Yang Jingxing chased Zhang Chujia out: "Teacher Zhang, I want after-school tutoring." ”
Zhang Chujia looked back cautiously, and then reprimanded Yang Jingxing: "Engage in a sudden attack, you, I was scared?"
Yang Jingxing hehe: "That's a good job, it turns out that I didn't take my class so seriously." ”
Zhang Chujia was dissatisfied: "I have no conscience...... Do you want to accompany Yu Xinting to two classes? In the next class, I will arrange for you to answer questions at the same table. ”
Yang Jingxing said seriously: "Go to the office to see if there is any email." ”
Zhang Chujia squinted: "I watched it in the morning, but it's the middle of the night now." ”
Yang Jingxing said: "Look at it, there should be, I still have something to do, so I'll go first." ”
Zhang Chujia didn't show the majesty of a teacher.
As soon as Yang Jingxing's car drove out of the school gate, Zhang Chujia called and asked Yang Jingxing what kind of tricks he was secretly doing again, there were emails, and there were two letters, one was that Grace informed the language teacher that he had been hired, and the other was that the lawyer wanted to discuss the itinerary with Yu Xinting.
Lawyers are also very busy, and they can only find ways to find a few days to come to China from March 10 to 12, US time, and then they can only wait until the end of the month.
Yang Jingxing said: "You can discuss it with the professor, I don't care." ”
Zhang Chujia joked: "It's okay, don't be so eager to cover up......"
Yang Jingxing rushed to the hotel, and asked the front desk to call to confirm before allowing the passage, and went upstairs to meet Tong Lei. When I got down from the elevator, there seemed to be only one door, and it still had a video function.
The person who opened the door was a man about thirty years old, and he didn't introduce himself: "Four-zero-two, right? Please wait a moment, Teacher Tong is meditating on incense." ”
It's such a big suite, and a young woman invited Yang Jingxing to sit, asked what to drink, and then a woman in her thirties came out, introducing herself as Tong Lei's assistant, and she was quite polite: "That's the case, Teacher Tong's thinking and inspiration are very jumpy, her understanding of music is different from many people, you must follow her train of thought when you meet, cherish and seize the opportunity, don't use your own ideas to limit Teacher Tong's inspiration, if you really have suggestions, you should be tactful." ”
Yang Jingxing seemed to be frightened: "I'll try my best." ”
After drinking a cup of tea for more than half an hour, the people who came over looked at Yang Jingxing and didn't say anything more, and then Tong Lei finally appeared, which is very different from the dress on TV.
Yang Jingxing got up: "Hello Teacher Tong, I'm very sorry, the morning ...... thing"
Tong Lei waved her hand haha: "It's okay, I'm busy, I only remembered it when I got on the plane, otherwise I would have notified you in advance...... A little hobby, I'm afraid that you won't change your clothes if you wait for a long time. ”
Yang Jingxing was happy: "I seem to feel something, I usually don't have the opportunity to touch such elegant things." ”
Tong Lei hehe: "Under this age, many things are useless just in form. ”
Yang Jingxing didn't believe it: "I don't think Teacher Tong is much older than me, the realm has nothing to do with age, the key is identity." ”
Tong Lei hahaha: "...... Get out of here. ”
Those people disappeared quickly, Tong Lei said: "We will go to the TV station later, we will hurry up and ......"
According to Tong Lei, in fact, it is not easy to be a famous singer, and it is even more difficult to be a singer who goes deep into the people, especially in the pursuit of art, constantly climbing, and then it is too high to be cold.
Tong Lei refuses to be pedantic, refuses to eat the old, refuses to be conservative, boldly uses newcomers, and boldly opens up creative space, so she has this song created by herself, full of love and heartfelt, but there is no score: "I identify you, I won't look for someone else's ......"
Yang Jingxing was sincerely afraid: "Then you are affected." ”
Tong Lei wanted to stand up and sing, and pondered for a while: "Ah~~ah~~, I'm your daughter......"
Yang Jingxing's city was really terrifying, sitting there listening seriously and not moving at all, and there was no sign of discomfort within a few minutes.
No wonder Gan Kaicheng asked for 100,000 when he opened his mouth, but Yang Jingxing didn't just need this 100,000 to save his life.
Tong Lei has several songs signed and composed by herself, but this time it is too big a breakthrough, saying that it is the main theme, the lyrics are a bit similar, but the rhythm has the color of R&B, if it is pure R&B, the key is that it is interspersed with national characteristics, it can only be said to be interspersed, and there is absolutely no fusion.
This sentence is high-pitched and sharp, and sometimes there is a bit of rap feeling, and from time to time it is the kind of melody that can only be written by the older generation of talents who drink tea all day long in the local cultural center.
In short, a four-way dislike, but Tong Lei has released so many songs, it's quite normal!
The ending is quite sonorous and powerful, it is Tong Lei's style, and she looked at Yang Jingxing after singing.
Yang Jingxing looked thoughtful: "...... Mr. Tong, everyone is saying that you have done it. ”
Tong Lei's modest but profound expression: "Cough, that is, do a line of love." ”
Yang Jingxing admired: "Success is not accidental...... Your song, to anyone in the industry, even those of us who stare at the number of downloads on the Internet all day long, everyone has to be amazed. ”
Tong Lei told Yang Jingxing not to be presumptuous, everyone is the same. Yang Jingxing said that it is too different, you are an artist, we are craftsmen, you are responsible for art and music, and craftsmen want to sell more and make more money.
Speaking of Gan Kaicheng, yes, he is also an artist, but Yang Jingxing is not afraid to tell the truth, Gan Kaicheng's late songwriting encountered Waterloo, and the industry praises him, but what about the market?
Yang Jingxing admired Tong Lei: "You must have thought of it, many fans must have difficulty accepting such a groundbreaking form for a while, but you are willing to do this with your identity and status and lead this breakthrough, I think you are too great and amazing...... But it hurts me to think about the price you have to pay for that dedication. ”
Tong Lei comforted Yang Jingxing, how could it be so serious.
It took more than an hour for Yang Jingxing to talk to people with more than ten years of artistic career, and it took Tong Lei to decide that it was okay to lie on his salary for the time being, after all, he is not omnipotent, as Yang Jingxing said, the truth is always in the hands of a small number of people, and some things take time......
Besides, the Lu Shengjie recommended by Yang Jingxing is indeed very good, Tong Lei couldn't meet immediately to see how an electrician maintained his awe of music, but unfortunately he didn't have time, so he could only take the number from Yang Jingxing and call.
Of course, Yang Jingxing is still responsible for the arrangement.
After accepting Tong Lei's thanks, Yang Jingxing said goodbye and fled the hotel and called Gan Kaicheng: "When did I offend you." You're hurting me so much......"
Gan Kaicheng inquired and was also frightened: "No, before...... Isn't there anyone who can remain calm in the face of status and power?"
Yang Jingxing resented: "You didn't keep calm and give me such a show." ”
Gan Kaicheng haha: "That can only depend on how you are......"
