Chapter 264: I can't help but be kind
However, any meeting has a certain purpose, whether it is the central idea or the core theme, the content must be related to the participants of the meeting. Otherwise, no one will sit together and gossip, they are all adults, and it is better to make some benefits or do things that interest them.
It's the same with ad hoc meetings, there must be people who come with some kind of purpose, and it's difficult for them to achieve their goals independently, so they want to use the power of the crowd to use the so-called democracy to achieve their ambitions. As for who is ambitious, it can be seen from Chang Liping's speech.
Of course, Chang Liping has a purpose, her purpose is very simple, she does not want others to interfere in international piano competitions, and continues to pull piano competitions into the control of the piano department, in fact, it is under her control.
According to the normal situation, although the international piano competition is very high-level, it is still a competition of professionals, and the entire Central Conservatory of Music has no one to surpass the piano department in terms of professionalism, and there is no problem with everything according to the standards of the piano department.
The interesting thing is that one of the two finalists in the whole college is a piano student, and the other is not a piano student, but a student from another large department. Another contestant is Liu Feng, a music student.
Liu Feng was able to break out of the encirclement from many participants and reach the top as a non-professional student, which can be said to have created a miracle for non-professional students, so that he has recently become famous, and is faintly known as the first piano talent of the young generation of the Conservatory of Music.
Doesn't beating a group of professional students as a non-professional student show his talent?
Of course, these statements have also made Liu Feng hostile to many people, especially piano students, who have often come forward to provoke recently, which annoys him.
Not to mention the small problems encountered by Liu Feng, his promotion has set off a lot of waves in the academy.
Chang Liping, the head of the piano department, was the first to feel the crisis, a group of well-trained professional students could not compete with non-professional students, which only proved that there was a problem in the education work of the entire department, and the superiors would doubt her leadership ability and further consider transferring her to other positions.
This is only one of them, but more importantly, someone will come forward to steal the credit that belongs to the piano department.
The Conservatory of Music has made a major breakthrough in the international piano competition, and the credit should belong to the piano department, and she was shared for no reason, and her face is not good-looking.
But in Zhang Boya's view, things are not like that at all, whether it is a piano competition or a singing competition, the music students are successfully shortlisted for the finals, whether the music department should also have the right to speak, at least negotiate. Silently, the piano department wanted to take all the credit, and he couldn't agree.
And he knows the real reason for the breakthrough in the piano competition, if there is no Liu Feng and "To Alice", the piano competition wants to take away the qualification of the two finals, which is a dream at all. It's obviously the credit of the music department, but the piano department wants to monopolize it, even if he doesn't have an opinion, other musicology teachers and students will be uncomfortable.
Zhang Boya doesn't like to compete for fame and fortune, and if he has the opportunity, he prefers to put everything on music. It's just that he's already sitting in his position, and he has to fight even if he doesn't fight.
The piano competition evolved into an open and secret battle between the two major departments of the piano department and the music department, and the school leaders actually felt a headache, but it was inconvenient for them to take sides of the party, and the best solution was to let the two sides settle peacefully, which is why this temporary meeting appeared.
"Mr. Chen Lin put a lot of effort into the competition, which no one denies. It's just that this year's contestants are a little different, in addition to piano students, there are also music students, the teaching atmosphere of the music department is completely different from that of the piano department, and it is somewhat ill-conceived to let Mr. Chen Lin serve as the leader of the competition!"
In the face of the rebuttal, Chang Liping was not annoyed, with a gentle smile on her face, as if she had not been affected in any way: "Director Zhang's words are wrong, the International Piano Competition is the highest level of youth piano competition in the world, and every participant is a leader of the younger generation, and they have reached the peak of what they can do at their own age, even if they are not much lower than many elders." They are all masters, and the competition between players is not only piano skills, but also a battle of experience, mentality, and adaptability. In this regard, our piano teachers have enough competition experience, know how to guide the players, and know how to mobilize the enthusiasm of the players. Interlacing is like a mountain, Director Zhang should understand this truth!"
I have to say that Chang Liping is indeed not to be underestimated, there is not the slightest fireworks in his speech, but Zhang Boya is forced into a desperate situation. She did not question Zhang Boya's musical literacy, nor did she attack Zhang Boya's ambition, but only emphasized one sentence. Professional competitions naturally require professionals to participate, and non-professionals should take a detour.
Is she right?
The International Piano Competition is the world's top piano competition for the young generation, and the competition between players is not only skills, but also experience, mentality and adaptability, which professionals have more say than non-professionals.
After all, it was Zhang Boya, he couldn't be easily defeated, and if he wasn't sure, he couldn't participate in the impromptu meeting.
He leaned back in his chair lightly, and his gaze swept over Liang Dong: "I admit that interlacing is like separating mountains, but these are all restrictions on ordinary people, there are always some people who use their talents to break barriers, such as Liu Feng, and then Liang Dong!"
Zhang Boya straightened up and looked directly at Chang Liping, "Liu Feng is a music student, and he can beat many professional students to qualify for the finals by participating in the competition independently. Teacher Liang Dong can also create an excellent piano piece "To Alice", which shows that Director Chang's interlacing is not very accurate!"
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of others at the scene couldn't help but turn to Liang Dong.
suddenly became the focus of the scene, but Liang Dong was unmoved, leaning back in his chair, clasping his hands together, and looking straight ahead, as if he was listening and more like he was in a daze.
Even so, the others still didn't dare to ignore him, everyone knew the weight of his meeting, as long as he didn't take a stand, many things couldn't be carried out directly around him.
Chang Liping naturally followed the others to look at Liang Dong, she actually hoped that Liang Dong would make a statement, no matter what she said, she would be able to respond. It's a pity that Liang Dong hasn't spoken, even if she wants to talk to Liang Dong in person, it's impossible.
With a chuckle, she said: "After all, we are ordinary people, and we can't compare with a musician like Mr. Liang Dong." The students are not Teacher Liang Dong, we can only demand them with the standards of ordinary people. "To Alice" is very good and very helpful to the competition, and we actually hope that Mr. Liang Dong will join the piano competition guidance team. It's just that we all know that Mr. Liang Dong has been too busy lately and may not have much time!"
Hearing this, Liang Dong, who had been in a daze, seemed to suddenly come back to his senses, and said leisurely: "Director Chang's words are wrong, I just said that I myself have always been a member of the academy, as long as the academy needs me, no matter how busy I am, I will help." Everyone hopes to get a good ranking in the piano competition, and I dropped the chain at this time, and I can't live with the kindness of the academy for more than ten years. ”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene couldn't help but stagnate, and many people looked at Liang Dong's gaze and became playful.
