――――――――――

When Ye Zi returned to the lounge after the performance, almost all the actors specially said hello to him, and even Mr. Cheng, who had been holding the shelf and arrogant and self-controlled, said a rare "good". Qian Liren even grabbed Ye Zi's shoulder and praised him violently, almost praising him as a flower.

When he returned to the hotel in the evening, Mr. Wu talked very strongly, and pulled Ye Zi to chat for half the night, and then the two washed and fell asleep.

――――――――――

Sunday morning, December 1, Shencheng Hongqiao International Airport.

Sun Yun stood in front of the sign in the international arrivals reception hall in a straight suit, carefully inquiring about the information of the arriving flight. Beside him, Ni Jun was waiting a little impatiently and was looking around.

"Let's go, let's find a place to sit for a while, their flight is delayed, and it will take an hour and a half to arrive." Sun Yun shook his head and said.

"Let's go have a coffee." Ni Jun turned around and left.

In a cafΓ© attached to the airport.

"What the hell is this?" Ni Jun looked annoyed, pointed to a cup of black liquid in front of him and complained: "80 yuan a cup is this kind of goods?" That's not how you slaughter people, do you? ”

Sun Yun took a sip of the teacup and said with a smile: "What else do you want to ask for in this kind of place?" Just sit for a while and take a break, don't be so demanding. ”

"I knew I drank tea too." Ni Jun muttered.

"Old Sun, what is Xiaowa doing in Shencheng this time?" After sitting for a while, Ni Jun asked curiously.

Sun Yun said strangely: "Didn't he call you?" ”

"Hit, I'm not at home, my mom picked it up." Ni Jun shook his head and said, "Didn't I get caught by Xiao Yezi?" I guess I won't be able to do anything in the past few months. Fortunately, I had a holiday for the past two days, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to come today. If I don't come, Xiaowa will curse again, right? ”

"That's for sure." Sun Yun smiled: "You and Xiaowa haven't seen each other for years, right?" ”

"yes, ・・・・・・ it's been almost ten years, right?" Ni Jun sighed slightly: "I really didn't expect that ten years have passed in this flash!" Old Sun, how is Xiaowa mixed now? ”

"He? It's a spring breeze. Sun Yun is in constant contact with each other and knows each other very well: "In 86, his piano suite "Song of the Sea" won a grand prize at the AUSTIA International Composition Competition. The year before last, this suite was favored by Ploygram to release a record, and for this he specially invited Xiaobei to play for him. The album was recorded at Abbey/Road (Abbey Road Studios, one of the most prestigious recording studios in the world), and later made it to the Penguin Three-Star Flower Chart (Hifi Records' chart), and he was so sΓ¨ that he yelled at me all day to try it out. I have this record there, and if you take it and listen to it one day, the composition, performance, and recording are pretty good. ”

"Xiaobei started working with him again?" Ni Jun asked in surprise.

Sun Yun smiled and continued: "It's not a reunion, it's just this set of records. Didn't Becket threaten to perform no works before 1900 except for Mozart's sonatas? So in recent years, his repertoire has not been enough. Xiaowa's set of works is not bad, so he will do a favor to record it, and he can also have an additional set of repertoire for public performances. ”

"Hehe・・・・・・ I see. I said, why did this little becky change his mind again. Hey, old grandson, isn't Xiaowa married yet? "Sometimes, Ni Jun is also very gossipy.

Sun Yun shook his head: "I heard that there seems to be a girlfriend, I don't know if I'm married or not." ”

"It seems that he is still the same old temper, I think he is getting farther and farther away from marriage in his life." Ni Jun's tone was teasing and a little envious: "By the way, Lao Sun, you haven't said what Xiaowa is doing in Shencheng this time?" ”

"He, this time he came to see Xiao Ye." Sun Yun had a satisfied smile on his face: "Next year's Shencheng Spring has set a special performance of his works, so the organizing committee invited him to come over to rehearse with the Shencheng Symphony Orchestra, and he also happened to take the opportunity to meet Ye Zi." Didn't Ye Zi play his guitar concerto last time, he was very interested in Ye Zi. ”

"The Iberian Concerto?" Ni Jun frowned: "That work is not very good to be honest, it is a little empty, the balance between the voices is not well mastered, and it is not distinctive." ”

Sun Yun shrugged his shoulders: "Xiaowa himself is very proud of this work, if you hear what he says, he will have to argue with you again." ”

"Just him?" Ni Jun said disdainfully: "Let him let the horse come over at any time." ”

"Really?" Sun Yun asked with a smile.

――――――――――

At noon on Monday, the actors took a bus back to Shencheng.

During the two-day performance, Ye Zi received 8,000 yuan in performance fees and more than a dozen phone numbers, as well as six "crooked wheels" and Christmas Eve running performances in December. Qian Liren readily agreed to Ye Zi and increased his performance fee to 5,000 yuan per performance from the next time. The door-picking ghost in Qin Zhu's mouth is rare and generous, and of course Ye Zi will not refuse.

On Tuesday afternoon, Ye Zi went back to the rental house directly after class, took the red cotton guitar, and rushed to Sun Yun's house by car.

On the rooftop of the villa, Ye Zi met for the first time Sun Yun and Ni Jun's alumnus, Mr. Javier/Valentin, a composer who has made a name for himself in the European music scene in recent years.

――――――――――

"This is our young virtuoso, right?" As soon as Ye Zi appeared, before Sun Yun could introduce him, Valentin asked.

Valentine was a thin, middle-aged man with curled brown hair clinging to his scalp, a hooked nose, thin lips, a strangely pale face, and a pair of bright eyes that appeared energetic.

"Javier, let me introduce you." Sun Yun beckoned Ye Zi to come over: "Ye Zi, this is Mr. Javier Valentine, a famous composer from country F. Javier, this is my student Ye Zi. ”

β€œnice/to/meet/you,mr/javier/valentin,i’m/bruce/ye,wele/to/shencity。” Ye Zi stretched out his hand to welcome.

"Wow, you speak great English. I'm Javier Valentine, you can call me Javier. Valentine's eyes widened exaggeratedly, and he shook hands with Ye Zi.

Ye Zi smiled slightly: "It's over." ”

As soon as he sat down, Valentine immediately said anxiously: "Bruce・・・・・・ ye? Oh sorry, this surname is too difficult for me to pronounce, Bruce, can I call you Bruce?" ”

"Of course, Mr. Valentine."

"No, no, no, just call me Javier."

"Ok, Javier."

Valentine suddenly stopped talking, chuckled nervously, looked at Ye Zi carefully, and then continued: "I listened to the tape Sun sent me, to be honest, I was really surprised, especially when I heard Sun say that you are only eighteen years old this year, and you have not studied classical guitar professionally with your teacher, which surprised me even more. Bruce, if you can, can you play it for me once? ”

"Xiaowa, you're too anxious, aren't you?" Ni Jun said with a smile.

Valentine kept shaking his head: "No, no, no, Ken, you don't know, the main thing I want to do when I come to Shencheng this time is to meet Bruce." In fact, I can't wait to hear the blues play. ”

"Okay, okay, since Javier can't wait, let's go down." Sun Yun stood up and said.

Valentine shook his head in surprise and said, "Sun, why do you want to go down?" ”

"My studio and studio are down there."

"No, no, no, we don't need to go down. We don't need to record, so why run to the studio? Isn't it good to play right here? Valentine stood up and looked at the villa under the sunset with an intoxicated expression: "Look, how beautiful the environment is here, Sun, I love your villa to death!" Bruce, let's just listen to you play here, okay? ”

"Absolutely, Javier. You sit down for a while, and I'll go get something. ”

Valentine's building is quite good.

Watching the sunset gradually fall and the twilight gradually envelops the surroundings, the street lamps in the garden are lit up in turn, the breeze blows, and sitting on the terrace drinking tea or coffee and listening to music, it is really a unique and elegant feeling.

Just like Ni Jun's opinion, Ye Zi actually doesn't like this work. But in front of Valentine, of course, he couldn't say that, and he couldn't be perfunctory about the performance.

On the rooftop under the twilight, Ye Zi seriously played the three-movement guitar concerto called "Iberian Concerto" in its entirety according to the score.

When the last note fell silent, the sky was completely dark, and a bright moon quietly hung in the night sky.

"Incredible! It's incredible! Valentine used two "incredible" in a row to express his love for Ye Zi's performance this time.

"Bruce, your playing is amazing! I can't believe you're only eighteen. ”

Ye Zi smiled slightly, he wouldn't take too much of the habitual exaggerated praise of Westerners to heart. Besides, the performance just now is just a decent performance, and the notes are played according to the score, where is there anything "incredible". However, Ye Zi still has to accept the praise given by the composer in person.

"Thank you Javier, your work is outstanding. When I read the music for the first time, I thought you were from S, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to write such a strong Iberian style. Ye Zi also complimented the other party.

"Oh? Have you been to S country? Do you know the situation in the Iberian Peninsula? You know, in order to compose this concerto, I lived in Valencia for five whole years to collect material and feel the local atmosphere. Listening to Ye Zi's praise, Valentine's eyebrows danced. He is a simple composer, and he is very happy that Ye Zi can enjoy this work.

Ye Zi shook his head: "I haven't been to country S, I have learned a little about the customs of the Iberian Peninsula from books. Your work depicts the image of my mind with musical notes, and perhaps this is what I imagine Iberia. ”

"Ken, you listen, you listen." As soon as Ye Zi's words fell, Valentine immediately shouted: "Listen to what Bruce said, your students have more vision than you." ”

Ni Jun sneered and said, "Xiaowa, you are a guest, and Bruce is just taking care of you." ”

"You're talking nonsense." Valentin said angrily, but with a roll of his eyes, he was no longer angry: "Oh, I see, you're jealous of my achievements, right?" Hahaha・・・・・・"

"I'll be jealous of you? Joke. Ni Jun immediately denied: "There is indeed something wrong with your concerto, and this is not just my personal feeling. Why don't you ask Sun, and then ask Bruce, and see what they say. ”

"Okay." Valentine is still extremely concerned about his work: "I don't ask Sun, I ask Bruce." ”

Turning around, Valentine faced Ye Zi and asked very seriously: "Bruce, please tell me what you really think, this is very important to me!" ”

"This ・・・・・・" Ye Zi hesitated.
