"It's okay, it's smooth!" Boss Wang commented.

This was the first time Chen Chufan heard such an evaluation after playing the piano, and he couldn't help but feel panicked. This may be because every time he plays the piano, he is appetized by Ye Siying and Professor Wang's various praises, and when he suddenly hears such an evaluation, he can't help but be shocked by this fat man. It seems that the person who is the boss is well-informed, and it is estimated that he has met more good pianists, so his evaluation of himself is not high.

"I don't know what Mr. Liu thinks, I listen to it and think it's still smooth, I should be able to have an amateur level 5 or 6, right?" Boss Wang asked the woman next to him with a big grin.

"Amateur fifth or sixth grade?" Mr. Liu seemed to have just come back to his senses from Chen Chufan's interpretation, and replied angrily: "The professional level 5 and 6 are not as strong as him!" ”

"No wonder it plays so smoothly. Hehe, the young man is still so young, it's good, it's good! Promising! Boss Wang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he was robbed of Mr. Liu's words, and said with a smile.

After listening to the conversation between the two, Chen Chufan suddenly realized. It turned out that it wasn't that he couldn't play well, but that the fat boss didn't understand music at all. This also made Chen Chufan suddenly realize that the piano still has to be played by people who understand it, in order to touch people's hearts, no wonder Bo Yazi will be as inseparable as a friend as soon as they meet, it turns out to be this truth.

Chen Chufan was sighing in his heart the deep friendship between Boya and Zi Qi, but Mr. Liu spoke again.

"You're still a student!" Mr. Liu looked at Chen Chufan and asked.

"Yes, Mr. Liu. Just study at North China University! Chen Chufan replied.

"Don't call me Mr. Liu, call me Aunt Liu!" It seems that Chen Chufan learned the official title of Boss Wang, which made her very dissatisfied, and made a correction.

"Okay, Aunt Liu!" For this kind of requirement, Chen Chufan has always been kind and streaming.

"You're from the music department?" Aunt Liu then asked.

"Not the Department of History!" After Chen Chufan finished answering, he hurriedly added: "But now I'm minoring in music!" ”

"Oh, will Liszt's Sigh be played?" Aunt Liu gave the title.

As soon as Chen Chufan heard this, he knew that this was the eighth classic who was taking the school exam. "Sigh", also known as "The Sea", is one of Liszt's concert etudes, although it is relatively simple compared to other Liszt's concert etudes, and it is not as tricky as Liszt's other etudes in terms of playing technique, but it is also a very difficult piece. The main difficulty lies in the extremely fast chords that match the main theme. Of course, as far as Liszt's etudes are concerned, none of them are really simple, and it really takes a bit of skill to play this piece well.

Chen Chufan happens to be able to play this song, and he doesn't need to read the score. Because Professor Wang has always asked him to use this piece to practice the coordination of his two hands, he basically plays it once or twice a day, and Chen Chufan is now perverted to the memory of a demon, of course, Chen Chufan can't help it.

"Yes!" Chen Chufan replied simply, and his ten fingers danced again on the keys of the piano.

I have to say that Chen Chufan still grasped the essence of this song. The rhythm of the piano rises and falls. Sometimes it blooms like a spring bud, sometimes it is like a stream running to the sea, gorgeous and gorgeous. The sparkling waves of light on the sea are intertwined and displayed in front of the listener's eyes.

After playing a song, Chen Chufan raised his eyes to look at the two again. Boss Wang didn't rush to interject first, but kept nodding his head, shaking around with a fat body, but Chen Chufan couldn't tell what he meant by nodding from his expression.

This is back to Aunt Liu's first comment: "Hey, it's a pity! The speech after a sigh made Chen Chufan a little nervous again. Is there something I haven't grasped well, but according to Professor Wang's evaluation, haven't I already mastered the essence of this piece? Chen Chufan just wanted to open his mouth to discuss it with Aunt Liu, but Boss Wang followed Aunt Liu's words first.

"Hehe, Mr. Liu, he is also a student, so you can't be too demanding of him. After all, not every Chinese is Li Xiaodi! Ha ha! Boss Wang seemed to feel that his words were very humorous, and he laughed twice before continuing to comment: "Actually, the middle is still smooth, but at the end, this kid is estimated to be patronizing the pedal, so his hand was broken for a while, and he was so-so and made do!" ”

Boss Wang's evaluation made Chen Chufan feel a little cryless without tears, what does it mean that patronizing and stepping on the pedal caused his hand to break for a while? This is a pause at the last few closing syllables, okay? Is it okay to just press the sustain pedal in this section? He just wanted to open his mouth to popularize piano knowledge with Boss Wang, but Aunt Liu spoke first.

"Boss Wang, I said it's a pity, but it's not that this kid didn't play well, I mean that the sound quality of this piano is too poor, and it's a pity to let this kid play on this piano." Aunt Liu didn't give Boss Wang face at all, and said bluntly.

"Huh? Hehe! Boss Wang touched his head with his hand and smiled a little embarrassed. But the fat man is still open-minded, and he doesn't see him annoyed. "That's it, haha, that means this kid has a future. Then it's hired! What's your name? ”

"My name is Chen Chufan!" Although this Boss Wang's appreciation ability made Chen Chufan speechless, he was still very happy to hear that he could be hired, and he could earn money by playing the piano casually, which was much more reliable than going to the circus to perform chest crushing boulders.

"Chen Chufan, you see if this will work, come to work from 7 to 9 o'clock every night, I will give you a salary of 30 yuan per hour, 60 yuan a day, and the salary will be settled, but you have to guarantee that you will come more than five days a week." Wang Fatzi groaned for a while and then said the salary.

"Huh?" Chen Chufan was a little stunned, saying that Han Xiaoxi told him that the owner of this café invited Ye Siying to come here to play the piano, and the price seemed to be 100 yuan an hour, why did he come here for only 30 yuan an hour? That's a big difference, isn't it? I shouldn't be much worse than Ye Siying! Thinking of this, Chen Chufan asked cautiously: "Boss Wang, I heard a classmate say that the salary you offered to invite her to be a pianist is 100 yuan an hour?" Why only give me thirty dollars an hour? ”

"Oh! It turns out that you are the classmate of that beautiful woman! No wonder I took the initiative to find it! Boss Wang suddenly realized, and then continued to explain: "Classmate Chen, of course I have a reason for giving that beautiful classmate a salary of 100 yuan an hour!" You see, such a beautiful girl, who plays the piano so well, there must be no shortage of suitors in school. And I asked her if she had a boyfriend, and she said no! So I invited her to come to me to play the piano and advertise it casually, what a sensation it would be. Her suitors will also come to my café every day to win the favor of beautiful women, they come to sit, they must consume, right? Do you think I'm going to lose money? ”

O master! Chen Chufan sighed secretly in his heart, Chen Chufan felt that he had taken another lesson today, as the so-called art industry has a special supply, although the fat man in front of him does not understand the piano, but the business calculation is definitely ten and he can't compare!

"Then we'll talk about you again. Since your piano skills can be affirmed by Mr. Liu, it should also be excellent. But do you have the appeal of that beautiful classmate of yours? Can you attract a lot of girls to watch you play the piano? Boss Wang asked rhetorically.

Chen Chufan shook his head blankly, of course he was not as big as Ye Siying in terms of appeal. As for attracting girls, he doesn't think he has this charm. He wanted to say that in fact, the beautiful woman you mentioned is still my nominal girlfriend, but it doesn't seem to be useful for him to fight for a high salary.

"Isn't that it! So thirty dollars an hour is already a lot. If you sit in front of the piano and play for two hours a day, you can earn 60 yuan as a practice, which is pretty good! Boss Wang said as a matter of course. How's that, think about it! If you can, you can come to work at 7 p.m. tonight! ”

Chen Chufan had basically been persuaded by this Boss Wang, and was about to say yes, but when he saw Aunt Liu, who had not spoken on the side, she shook her head gently at him with a smile, as if she meant something. Chen Chufan's heart moved, and the words that had reached his mouth were swallowed again, and he shook his head instead, and said, "The salary is still too low, I need to think about it!" ”

"Hey, then there's no way, classmate Chen, I'm also running a small business here, and I can't stand the higher salary! You just go back and think about it! If you think it's okay, come to work! Boss Wang shook his head and said.

"Okay, I'll bother you today, I'll go first!" After speaking, Chen Chufan stood up from the piano and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Aunt Liu stopped Chen Chufan's footsteps, took out a very delicate business card from her small leather bag and handed it to Chen Chufan. "This is my business card, I think your piano skills are not bad, and there is still room for improvement, you can give me a call when you have questions, maybe I can help you."

"Thank you, Aunt Liu! I'll take my leave! Chen Chufan took the business card handed by Aunt Liu and solemnly put it in his pocket. Then he turned and walked away.

"It's a pity! In fact, it is a good seedling, but it is too high to position itself! Hey, I'm still a student, so I want a lot of salary! It's so proud, it's a pity, it's a pity! Boss Wang looked at Chen Chufan's departing back regretfully, shaking his fat body, shaking his head and sighing.

Mr. Liu's face remained unchanged and agreed, "Well, who said it wasn't!" But after thinking about it, he continued: "Today's children, amazing!" “
