Valentine arranged a translator by his side, and when the translator finished speaking, Valentin immediately stepped forward and said loudly: "I am honored to be able to come to visit the century-old Shencheng Symphony Orchestra, I have known for a long time that this is an extraordinary and famous orchestra. And I want to thank all of you here, because if it weren't for your hard work, we would have lost our jobs. ”

The accompanying translator obviously didn't know enough about the humor of Westerners, and he translated o as a partner, which was fine, but the direct translation of os/or/ob as "lost our job", although the meaning did not make much difference, but the sense of humor in Valentine's speech immediately disappeared.

Not everyone of the performers has good English listening and speaking skills, such as Pan Zhe, who understands them, all show a knowing smile, and those who do not understand or half-understand do not understand, after listening to the translation of the accompanying interpreter, they seem to be at a loss.

It's true that we fellow composers lose our jobs, but it's ...... What does this mean? Are we saying that we musicians are stealing your composer's job?

Should...... Unlikely to say that, right?

So what the hell...... What does that mean?

There was a diǎn embarrassment at the scene all of a sudden.

Of course, Chen Xieyang understood Valentin's meaning, as the host, he definitely couldn't let Valentin, a guest, not be able to get off the stage, and besides, it wasn't that Valentin didn't say it well, but the accompanying translator distorted the meaning of his words, which caused this embarrassing situation. Chen Xieyang winked at Pan Zhe, it was not appropriate for him to come forward to do this translation work, and it would be no problem for Pan Zhe to do it.

Pan Zhe immediately stood up: "What did Mr. Valentin say just now...... Without your hard work, we composers would be out of work. ”

Oh, that's what it means, this foreigner is very famous, but it's quite polite.

The musicians all smiled.

This time, it was the turn of the accompanying interpreter to be embarrassed.

"Javier. Mr. Valentine, you are so gracious, that it is our natural duty as professional virtuosos to transform the genius creations of composers into moving music. This time you can put such a ±∴dǐng±∴diǎn±∴ small ±∴ say, .△.o±s_(); On behalf of the 142 performers of the troupe, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you. ”

As the concertmaster of the orchestra, Pan Zhe is qualified enough to say these words just now, and in his capacity as the principal, these words are more suitable than Chen Xieyang. There is no belittling of the bid, and there is enough respect for Valentine, these words are very in place.

If it was a conductor like Chen Xieyang and the head of the Shenjiao regiment to say these words, it would be a little diǎn cheap.

"This is Mr. Pan Zhe, the principal performer of our Shencheng Symphony Orchestra." Chen Xieyang introduced a sentence in a timely manner, of course, in English.

The principal of any orchestra is a figure that cannot be ignored, Valentine did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands with Pan Zhe. Subsequently, the translation work was naturally handed over to Pan Zhe.

Valentine continued with a few polite words, and then ended his speech. Coming here is a customary visit, and secondly, listening to the rehearsals and having a final conversation with the conductor, and Valentine certainly can't stand there and talk at length.

"Mr. Valentine, please take a break, and the rehearsal will begin." Chen Xieyang was not too polite, greeted him, and turned to the performers.

This is...... It's time to see the real thing!

The musicians immediately fell silent.

The members of the organizing committee heard Chen Xieyang say to take a break, but they couldn't find any empty chairs when they looked around, only a few wooden steps were placed on the opposite side of the concert seat.

Just sit here and rest? Outrageous! It's not like that! How can such a famous composer as Valentine be treated like this? This is to destroy the image of our organizing committee!

He thought indignantly, and just as he was about to go out and find a few chairs to come over, Valentine had already sat directly on the wooden steps, and there was nothing strange or wrong or disrespectful.

Seeing such a situation, the member of the organizing committee could only give up. Valentine didn't say anything, what else was he thinking?

A soft tuning sound sounded in the rehearsal hall, and soon the rehearsal hall was quiet again. Chen Xieyang picked up the baton and looked at Ye Zi and Pan Zhe.

Pan Zhe diǎn diǎn diǎn head, the orchestra is ready.

Ye Zi held the classical guitar in his arms, and he also made all the preparations.

Chen Xieyang raised his right hand, and the baton drew a small arc from right to left, and when the arc rose to the highest diǎn, Chen Xieyang raised his left hand, and Pan Zhe led the string group to start playing.

……

Thirty-five minutes later, Valentine's applause rang out in the aftermath of the orchestra's performance.

"Great!"

"It's incredible!"

"Master Chen, I like your style of interpretation, this is the most dramatic performance I have ever heard!" (PS: Maestro Chen, ASR/N, this is the customary name for conductors in the international music world, even if the conductor's artistic realm has not reached the real master's level, he is still called "master")

"Principal Pan, your strings are shining like silk satin, I love your strings so much, thank you for your wonderful performance!"

"The power control of the wind music part is just right, it's amazing!"

"Master Chen, I have to say that you have a first-class orchestra and I look forward to working with you and your orchestra for a long time!"

The good words from Valentine's mouth poured out like money, and after Pan Zhe's instant translation, the musicians all laughed happily. The fact that the composer himself was able to praise the performance just now made them happier than anything else.

Although Westerners are accustomed to complimenting others, and they are accustomed to making such compliments more exaggerated, it is enough to let Valentine praise so much, even if the water in his words is squeezed out, and the rest is enough to show that he is satisfied with Shen Jiao's performance.

This is an extremely difficult thing to do.

The musicians expressed their gratitude with neat tapping instruments, and Pan Zhe, as the principal, came over to shake Valentin's hand and hugged him to thank him for his encouragement.

Valentine finally came to Ye Zi.

Generally speaking, composers are the first to express their gratitude to the soloist after listening to the rehearsal of their work, which is a sign of respect. However, there are exceptions to the case when the composer has doubts or is particularly satisfied with what the soloist has just played, which will save the soloist for questioning or thanking him alone.

Of course, this is not the case when it comes to the actual performance. Regardless of whether the composer is satisfied with the performance of the soloist, he will be the first to hug and thank the performer when he takes the stage, followed by the conductor and the concertmaster. If it's a symphony, it's the first hug to thank the conductor, followed by the principal. It's a regular process at concerts, and you can't make mistakes or leave it out. Otherwise, even if the soloist's performance this time is extremely poor, the composer will be scolded to death by critics, saying that he does not have the demeanor of a composer, etc.

Looking at Valentine's smiling face, the situation now is of course the latter.

Valentine shook his head while laughing, hugged Ye Zi tightly and said loudly: "Bruce, my child, you really surprised me so much, your performance is incredible!" It's unimaginably perfect! ”

"Thank you, Javier, you're embarrassing me." At this time, Ye Zi said politely. It's not yesterday, in front of so many Shenjiao performers, Ye Zi will no longer praise himself unceremoniously like yesterday, but show his humble side. Otherwise, some people may have some small thoughts in their hearts. In Huaxia, there will be such scruples, this is due to the national conditions, and Ye Zi must take care of the feelings of most people.

A humble thank you can make some people's hearts feel comfortable and balance, and it can also reduce the possibility of trouble in Ye Zi's future, so what does it matter if you say such a sentence?

Valentine didn't accept Ye Zi's modesty: "No, no, no, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. I could imagine that your playing skills would improve a lot, but I didn't expect you to improve so much, it's a leap forward. ”

"Bruce, listen to me, come with me and leave Huaxia." Without waiting for Ye Zi to be polite again, Valentine said eagerly: "I still say the same thing, you can't continue to ...... in Huaxia."

Halfway through his words, Valentine suddenly stopped.

He had said this sentence to Ye Zi half a year ago, but half a year later, Ye Zi's progress process made him, an excellent composer who is accustomed to seeing talented performers, dumbfounded, obviously, Valentine's judgment was wrong, and Ye Zi was still able to continue to make progress if he stayed in the Huaxia Continent.

Ye Zi smiled: "Thank you Javier, I am very, very grateful for your invitation to me, but you have also seen that I am still continuing to improve." And I have other things to do to stay in the Huaxia Continent, so I can't go to the country with you for the time being, I'm really sorry Javier, but I already feel your heart. ”

"Thank you!" Ye Zi thanked him seriously.

"Singing pop songs?" Valentine glanced at Ye Zi strangely and shrugged his shoulders: "Bruce my child, I really can't imagine what can attract you to singing pop songs, for me that's ¥#%!" But...... I absolutely respect your choice. ”

"But I still insist on this diǎn, your talent can only be completely and completely bloomed in the world music scene, and you will shock the whole world music scene. Trust me, Bruce, this will be your goal, and you will be able to do it! ”

Valentine patted Ye Zi's shoulder hard and said loudly.

Ye Zi smiled, smiled very happily, and smiled very confidently: "Yes Javier, I believe I can do it!" ”

Pan Zhe glanced at Ye Zi and Valentin twice, and simply translated the words just now, and he blurred some specific sentences. Under his translation, Valentin only encouraged Ye Zi, and Ye Zi was more polite and humble. As the same instrumental performance genius and a person who came over, Pan Zhe used his actions to "protect" Ye Zi from the jealousy and inexplicable interference of the villain.

Such a translation made Chen Xieyang quietly diǎn head, and Ye Zi was even more grateful in his heart. Only the accompanying interpreter pursed his lips, secretly disdainful in his heart.

Listening to Ye Zi's answer, Valentine was also very happy, and he once again hugged the young talented performer and future performance master in front of him tightly.

This time, Valentine whispered in Ye Zi's ear.

"Bruce, when you feel like the time comes to start your journey to the world music scene, tell me and I'll help you arrange what you need. This is me, Javier. Valentine's promise to you! ”

"I'll be waiting for you in the country." (To be continued.) )
