Seventeenth floor of Jianghua Building, Huadu Music Newspaper.

Huadu Music News, as the most professional music newspaper in Wudu and even in the whole south, is very large, leasing a full two floors of a Grade A office building, and there are hundreds of employees in various departments.

You don't see, Huadu Music Newspaper is the only one in China that interviewed Wen Ruiyu, but also interviewed China's violin prodigy Li Yuanlu, and also interviewed the music newspaper on King Qin.

If this alone is the case, it can only prove that the backstage of "Huadu Music News" is strong, and anyone can be invited, but the newspaper's three columns, as well as today's new star section, make it unique and stand out.

First of all, the owners of the three columns on the Huadu Music Newspaper, except for one who is the editor-in-chief of the newspaper itself, the other two can be said to be the top of the music criticism industry, and the spicy and professional reviews are often quoted by foreign music programs, so Huadu Music can become one of the most professional newspapers and periodicals for piano and violin in China.

Today's new star is to collect excellent manuscripts about piano from all over the country, and Li Yuanlu, a former violin prodigy, became famous for publishing "Introduction to Violin" on the Today's Rising Star section, and was admitted to a foreign two-star music university.

Everyone wants to be Li Yuanlu.

Therefore, this newspaper is still the ideal place for many students of domestic conservatories to obtain honors, and a submission is pouring in like snowflakes.

Huadu Music News has two issues a week, and each issue of today's new star section only publishes one, which means that there will be eight articles a week, and eight articles are selected out of thousands of articles, and the difficulty of review is self-evident.

According to the procedure, first the newspaper review editor reads it, about the ratio of one out of ten, and then the review of the editor-in-chief, which is more severe, he will select one from dozens of submissions, and finally go to the editor-in-chief's table, there are about a dozen articles, and the editor-in-chief will play the piano and finally make a decision.

Today is the time for the editor-in-chief to review, Wang Ce is one of the three review editors-in-chief of Huadu Music News, early in the morning, the review editor Xiao Du sent more than 300 manuscripts.

There are students in school who write it, and at a glance, you can see that the writing is immature, and there are many highlights but not mature enough; There are also old birds in the music industry, who can't find a single mistake in their writing, but they stick to the rules, in short, all kinds of things.

"Last time, there were only more than two hundred, and this time there are dozens more, Xiao Du is really becoming more and more undutiful, and he must beat it well."

Wang Ce counts benefits every month, the salary is about 15,000, or all national holidays, many people are very envious of this job, but in fact, many times only the parties know the hardships.

Salary and hard work are sometimes proportional, just from Wang Ce review, the day after tomorrow must be reviewed by the manuscript to the editor-in-chief office, the time is very fast, the most critical issue is that the review process must be serious.

The eliminated manuscript is more wonderful than the published manuscript, and this kind of thing must not happen in Waldo Music.

"The pedal is the soul of the piano, and this idea is too old-fashioned."

"Talking about Chernier's creative style, this kind of analysis of celebrities is the most likely to be criticized, unless it is extremely brilliantly written or has an amazing point of view, the possibility of being killed is too high, and no one understands such a simple and easy-to-understand truth for so long."

"This is not bad, analyzing the influence of Wen Liuqi's social disorders on piano music style, the level of discussion is very high, but it is a pity that the editor-in-chief has written a similar article in the column before, and Zhuyu is in front."

"It's too extreme to talk about how to inspire a love of piano in children."

"Piano performance and psychology, the views are amazing enough, but the content is not."

As the editor-in-chief, Wang Ce is quite responsible, because even if the text is not good and the topic is old, he will read more than two-thirds of the content.

In one day, lunch and dinner were all on the desk, Wang Ce's eyes were about to explode, and more than 100 manuscripts were wiped out.

"I don't have the last amazing manuscript." Wang Ce was going to read another article and rested in the company's pantry, drinking a cup of coffee, his eyes were really unbearable, but as soon as he took it, it was a thick stack.

"Huh? What is this thing?"

Most of the submitted manuscripts are one or two sheets of A4 paper, more than four or five, after all, today's new stars are only one page, and the most important thing is that this kind of manuscript about the piano is not a novel, how can there be too many words.

But the thick stack that Wang Ce is holding in his hand now seems to subvert his work experience, with more than 30 sheets of A4 paper, densely packed with words, and roughly estimated to have more than 200,000 words.

"This shouldn't be a novel from another newspaper, and then I voted wrong." Wang Ce rubbed his eyes, and saw that the name written on the thick stack of manuscripts was "The Period of Arrogant Self-Esteem".

"It's really a novel."

At the same time, however, Wang Ce also noticed the subtitle under the name - the piano poet 'Butterfly's clever playing method

"How the piano poet Hu De played tricks?"

Wang Ce's head is full of question marks, the name of the pianist poet Robert Schumann, of course, he can't be unaware, but he knows one thing better, analyzing celebrities is risky, but analyzing celebrity songs is even more risky.

What's more, it's still butterflies, this world-famous repertoire, there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers, except for the pianist himself, outsiders analyze the rhythm of the bird.

"Butterfly: I remember the editor-in-chief telling me that this piece is one of Schumann's masterpieces, but it is also one of Schumann's most difficult pieces to play, because no matter who plays it, it always feels unsatisfactory and cannot express the 'poetry' that the pianist wants to express." Wang Ce became interested and said: "Using novels to interpret butterflies, the idea is quite amazing, but I don't know how it is." ”

It's all about the content.

started reading, and his long-term review career has exercised Wang Ce's reading speed of ten lines at a glance.

After scanning two or three pages, Wang Ce's heart flashed with this question: "What does this have to do with Robert Schumann's butterfly during the period of arrogance?" ”

With the reduction of A4 pages overnight, Wang Ce still didn't feel any connection with butterflies, or even with the piano, but the content of the novel attracted his attention.

Until the last chapter, "Dance of the Larvae......

Jean Paul, in fact, it is not accurate to say that he is an author, because he is known to the world for his poems, as one of the most famous poets in the history of German literature, the standard of writing novels is also very good, "The Period of Arrogant Dignity" is his masterpiece, and the wonder is needless to say.

Wang Ce, who kept the same posture and finished reading the manuscript, did not feel a sore neck at all, to be precise, he ignored it, and said excitedly: "So that's it, so that's it, Schumann's butterfly has another meaning, it also represents the butterfly mask at the masquerade." ”

"The butterfly mask, it's a magical, vague representation...... No wonder, no wonder I always feel that when playing, the artistic conception is very different from Schumann's, this is it. Wang Ce rushed directly to the editor-in-chief's office with the manuscript, and there was no need to read the rest of the manuscript.

The door "banged", and the old heart and liver who played the piano were startled.

Lao Sheng calmed down by playing the piano and asked, "Editor-in-chief Wang, why don't you knock on the door." ”

"Editor-in-chief, I saw a manuscript with very high both conceptual and literary value." Wang Ce put the manuscript in front of Lao Sheng's piano and added: "I think the new star of this issue must be him." ”

The old student played the piano and stroked his reading glasses, Wang Ce has been working in the newspaper for several years, and he is very stable in life, he is curious about what kind of manuscript can make him so out of shape.

"A time of arrogance, fiction?" Lao Sheng didn't pay attention to the subtitle when he played the piano, and looked at Wang Ce and couldn't figure out what kind of medicine to buy in the gourd, today's new star page will publish a maximum of 30,000 words, so he has to grab the edition, how can a novel of more than 200,000 words be published.

The old student plays the piano and reads slowly......

ps: There is no Chinese version during the period of arrogance, if you have good English and are interested, you can go to Amazon to buy it, and Jean Paul and Paul Celan are two people, although they are both German, but Jean Paul's original name is Paul Richter.

ps2: It's about to build a school.,Don't worry.,In addition, don't support the recommended ticket and the reward.,Push it next week.,The update will keep up when the time comes.。
