Chapter Ninety-Seven: Asking for the Piano
"You mean Professor Li Yishan, a special professor of music at Tianhai University?" After Lin Yi listened to Gu Jie's words, the expression on his face was wonderful, and the whole person was surprised, "Professor Li turned out to be your grandfather?"
"yes. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoWhat's wrong?Is there something wrong?" Gu Jie saw Lin Yi's surprised expression, a little confused.
Oh my God, why is this world so small! Lin Yi shouted helplessly in his heart.
I just rejected Professor Li's invitation in public just two days ago, although there is nothing wrong with decisively refusing from my own point of view. But for the highly respected Professor Li, it is undoubtedly a shame that so many people extended an olive branch to a junior in front of them and was directly vetoed by the other party.
Now I want to discuss with Professor Li about buying a piano, I wonder if he will be directly rejected by him? Even if Professor Li does not refuse immediately, he may suffer a lot of difficulties. Thinking of this, Lin Yi had a headache.
But considering that it is better to buy back the original guitar and compensate the landlord, Professor He, and this style of guitar has been played several times before, and I have understood and adapted to the tone and feel, I will always feel a little rusty and awkward when I change to another guitar at first glance.
For musicians, a familiar and commonly used instrument is like a gun in the hands of a soldier, only what they are accustomed to and accustomed to is the best, and it may not be able to play the original level if they replace it rashly.
Thinking about this clearly, Lin Yi decided that no matter what, at least go to Professor Li's house and try it out, maybe Professor Li will sell it to himself? Even if he takes 10,000 steps back, even if he can't buy it, he can put out the idea of buying the same guitar, and then come back honestly to pick another guitar.
The school's orientation party starts tomorrow at seven o'clock in the evening, which is quite enough in terms of time.
Lin Yi made a decision, so he opened his mouth and communicated with Gu Jie: "Then please help introduce Gu Jie, we will visit Professor Li later?"
"Okay, then let's get in the car now?" Gu Jie was also fast-talking, without the slightest intention of procrastination.
Several people hit it off, and immediately came to the parking lot on the corner of the street and got on the Audi A6L that Gu Jie drove before, because the two men and women were not very familiar with each other, Lin Yi directly got into the driver's seat, and Wang Feng took the opportunity to sit in the co-pilot, letting Gu Jie and Xiao Ai sit in the back seat.
The car drove all the way to Fangxin Community, and on the way, Lin Yi asked Gu Jie while driving: "Eh, Gu Jie, does your grandfather Professor Li have any hobbies?"
You must know that if you come to ask someone to do something, you must bring something to be embarrassed to enter the door as a guest, even if it is a thin courtesy, it is a distraction, and you can't even tear off your face when you go empty-handed.
What's more, Lin Yi had offended Professor Li a little before, and now if he wants to buy his carefully collected commemorative guitar, he naturally has to find out in advance and do what he likes in order to better achieve his goal.
"You mean my grandfather's daily hobbies? I don't see if you have a lot of ideas. After listening to Lin Yi's question, Gu Jie was as smart as she immediately understood the meaning behind Lin Yi, teased a few words, and seriously helped to make suggestions.
"My grandfather didn't have any bad habits, and as far as I could see, he didn't smoke or drink, and if there was one thing he had to love, it would be a good cup of tea. Gu Jie thought for a while and gave Lin Yi an answer.
Knowing this information, Lin Yi decisively turned his head and came to Yida Plaza in the center of the city to buy two boxes of expensive Anxi Tieguanyin as a meeting gift, and there would be a conversation when he came to buy a guitar later. After all, if you don't stretch out your hand and don't hit a smiling person, you will have a good face after receiving your own gift.
Wang Feng watched Lin Yi buy two boxes of Tieguanyin with a unit price of more than 1,000 with a wave of his hand, and he didn't know why Lin Yi was so generous, but judging from the previous words, Lin Yi should have asked Professor Li for some guitar, and Wang Feng, who has been working part-time in society for several years, certainly understands the unspoken rules of this kind of human exchange, so he didn't ask much, and quietly followed Lin Yi's actions.
In Wang Feng's opinion, Lin Yi had heard himself mention this Professor Li before, and he must have also understood Professor Li's honorary career, and now he buys such a valuable gift to visit, maybe he also wants to ask for advice or apprenticeship.
Therefore, Wang Feng also wanted to follow Lin Yi to the door, and at that time, he would also help his brother say some good things to add a little goodwill. Don't seek to be as lucky as the boy who was deliberately accepted by Mr. Li in the news in the circle of friends before, at least if the good brother Lin Yi can be given a few face-to-face instructions by Professor Li, he will gain something more or less.
And Xiao Ai, the assistant on the side, sneered in her heart, you must know that she has been working as an assistant in the past few years in society, what kind of person has not seen it? Like Lin Yi, who spends money lavishly at a young age, and wants to pursue expensive limited editions when buying a guitar, he must also be a pampered son of a rich family. Xiao Ai has seen too many people like Gu Jie, most of them are rice buckets like wine bags and rice bags, and they are just a good skin.
After such a long time of contact just now, Xiao Ai didn't see any unique temperament and talent in Lin Yi, and she couldn't help but wonder if the previous songs were created by Lin Yi himself. You must know that the rich boy can't do anything with some money, so he deliberately buys some songs from other channels to pretend to be a musical talent, so as to attract Sister Gu's attention in order to try to get close to Fang Ze, this kind of trick has to be guarded against.
In Xiao Ai's opinion, Lin Yi's door-to-door request to buy a guitar will most likely be in vain. Because she only came to stay for two or three days, she saw Sister Gu's grandfather, Professor Li, carefully maintaining his various musical instruments that filled a large exhibition room, which shows that Li Lao loved and cherished his collection of items, how could he easily sell them to Lin Yi, who he didn't know?
But no matter what, everyone with their own hearts still sat in the luxurious Audi A6L, gradually approached the Fangxin community, and finally came to the downstairs of Professor Li's villa.
Lin Yi looked at the small villa building in front of him with bright windows, and the outer wall was covered with many green plants, which seemed to fit together perfectly.
Gu Jie saw Lin Yi and the two of them, who were a little silent, and chuckled: "I'll open the way first, Lin Yi, you will come later." After speaking, he took the lead and directly rang the doorbell of Xiaolou.
Soon, an old man with silver hair opened the door, and Lin Yi fixed his eyes to see that it was Professor Li, who had intentionally accepted himself as a disciple during the rehearsal of the previous party!
Professor Li saw his granddaughter outside the door clearly, and a smile appeared on his serious face: "Why did it take so long, your grandmother is a little worried that you are lost." ”
"How can I get lost, how old I am, and I still have a little love with me. Gu Jie pouted and replied dissatisfiedly.
"Haha, I'll just say, my little Jie'er has grown up, where will she get lost at every turn like when she was a child. Li Lao laughed, took the violin case that Xiao Ai was carrying behind his back, and then raised his eyes to see Lin Yi and Wang Feng who were following behind.
"You...... Aren't you the ...... that day?" Professor Li looked at Lin Yi and said with some hesitation.
