The words are divided into two ends, when Liu Yan was once again attracting attention because of calligraphy, an unexpected joy fell from the sky and hit Li Xiaoru.

The main purpose of Mr. Martin's trip to China, in addition to an exchange visit to the piano department of the Capital Conservatory of Music, also brought an exchange student quota, and he will select a Chinese student to go to the United States.

The next year, the student will receive an American-style piano education at The Juilliard School, and not only that, but if the student's grades in the United States are recognized by the teacher, then he will have a good chance of going directly to Juilliard to pursue a master's degree. This is a friendly welcome gift from Mr. Martin to the Capital Conservatory of Music.

The Juilliard School is one of the world's most professional and top music schools, both in terms of faculty and background, and it is probably the dream of many music students around the world to study in this school.

It can be said that the students who got this exchange place are even luckier than winning five million in the lottery.

And Mr. Martin chose Li Xiaoru.

After watching the celebration concert, Mr. Martin was satisfied with Li Xiaoru's piano performance. In the following days, the leaders of the Conservatory of Music had several discussions with Mr. Martin, and on one occasion, the school summoned several outstanding students from the piano department to accompany them, including Li Xiaoru.

Mr. Martin did not show any importance for Li Xiaoru at that time, and did not immediately decide to give her an exchange student quota. He chatted with each of the students, and the topics were similar.

Li Xiaoru is very fluent in English, unlike Liu Yan, who is shy to open her mouth for stage fright, she has a fluent conversation with Mr. Martin, and when it comes to professional knowledge, she is very confident. Of course, she didn't think about it that much at the time, but she just respected the other party as a VIP from afar and a professional-level piano teacher.

What really made Mr. Martin look at Li Xiaoru differently was that President Wang told him after the symposium that Li Xiaoru had previously performed an ensemble of Chinese music and Western music with Liu Yan, which was very good.

Only then did Mr. Martin realize that Li Xiaoru was the girl who played the piano next to Liu Yan when she was playing the guqin in the video. Even if he was face to face with Li Xiaoru just now, he didn't recognize it. Li Xiaoru's stage makeup at that time was coquettish, thick and thick, and the gringos couldn't tell the appearance of Asian women, let alone see the essence through makeup.

His good impression of Li Xiaoru immediately increased a little, and he asked Principal Wang, "Is Li Xiaoru a friend of Liu Yan?"

Principal Wang smiled and said, "Yes, they are very good friends. ”

In this way, Mr. Martin decided to give his luck to Li Xiaoru.

And this is also the purpose of President Wang's intentional mention of the ensemble. Because Principal Wang still remembers that when the concert entered the night, Mr. Martin came with Yu Zhan, and Mr. Martin saw Yu Zhan's expression and words, which made Principal Wang feel that this foreigner had a trace of respect for Yu Zhan.

Principal Wang is such a shrewd person, he immediately understood why when he asked Mr. Martin to come to the school, the other party would agree so readily, after all, the difference in strength between the two schools is a little great, and his request is very abrupt, he is ready to be rejected by the other party.

Principal Wang boldly guessed that Mr. Martin came to China for Yu Zhan, and Yu Zhan was very likely to use this to make connections with Liu Yan. Mr. Martin's visit to Liu Yan immediately after the concert confirmed President Wang's conjecture.

Yu Zhan's identity, Principal Wang has not figured out until now, not to talk about the owner of the pet hospital and the chairman of the film and television company, but to Tang Daqing's attitude towards Yu Zhan, which is enough to make Principal Wang understand that Yu Zhan is the person he wants to stammer. He even suspected that the former principal Zhu was doubled. The rules are related to Yu Zhan, because everything is too coincidental.

Of course, the first step to curry favor with Yu Zhan is to please Liu Yan, and how to please Liu Yan is very simple. Liu Yan forced him to cancel Xia Chuan's show for the sake of Li Xiaoru's repertoire order, which is enough to show that she values Li Xiaoru as a friend very much.

Then he will give Li Xiaoru a bright future.

As for why Principal Wang didn't directly discuss with Mr. Martin and directly give the exchange student quota to Liu Yan, it was because they both knew that with Liu Yan's piano talent, if they went to Julia, they would definitely be beaten and had no power to fight back. Unless Julia establishes a major in Chinese musical instruments, it will not be possible in the short term.

The surprise came so suddenly, Li Xiaoru was in Principal Wang's office, covering her mouth in disbelief, she saw Mr. Martin sitting on the sofa smiling at her, and also saw Principal Wang's satisfied expression towards her.

Generally, the family conditions that can train children to learn piano are not much worse, but Li Xiaoru is an exception, she lives in a third-tier city, her father is a taxi driver, her mother is an ordinary worker, and she is an only child. Although the family background is average, Li Xiaoru's parents are very willing to spend money on their daughter's education, and they used all their savings to buy a second-hand piano for their daughter, which is still in the living room of Li Xiaoru's house.

When Li Xiaoru began to learn the piano, she learned about the Juilliard School from her piano teacher, who described the school as a mecca of music, which made her yearn for it.

But she never imagined that she could go to this school to study, not to mention her talents, grades, or anything, just the sky-high tuition fees discouraged her, not to mention the rumored strict selection method, she didn't have that self-confidence, competing with piano students all over the world, and her family didn't have so much money for her to study in the United States. Being a student at the Capital Conservatory of Music has made her very satisfied, and as for Julia, it is an unattainable dream.

And now that the dream had come true, how could she not be excited? She was so excited that she felt dizzy.

However, the remnants of her sanity quickly pulled her back to reality, and she asked Principal Wang how to calculate the cost of exchange students.

Principal Wang also considered this and said, "Your exchange student is different from ordinary situations, it is unilateral by Juilliard, we can only reimburse you half of the tuition fee, and the remaining half, as well as the accommodation and living expenses for one year, must be borne by yourself." ”

Principal Wang can't do anything about the cost, this is stipulated in the school documents, and he has no way to give Li Xiaoru the green light.

It is better to be able to reimburse half of it than to pay all of it out of pocket, Li Xiaoru asked again, "How much is the tuition fee?"

Mr. Martin said, "It costs $80,000 a year, and New York is a city with a relatively high level of consumption, especially Manhattan, where we are located, and your accommodation and living expenses will also cost about 80,000 yuan."

Li Xiaoru converted it in her mind, and was shocked, 160,000 US dollars, which is more than one million yuan!
