Chapter 847: Pressure
At 9 a.m. on Oct. 8, rehearsals resumed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
At 8:50, Sun Yun, accompanied by Ye Zi, went to the third floor of the orchestra's residence building to prepare for the rehearsal. As soon as the two of them appeared at the door of the large rehearsal hall, the rehearsal hall, which was still a little buzzing, became silent in an instant, and the eyes of all the members of the group looked at the two people who had just walked into the door, especially the one walking in front.
Sun Yun stood still, and he felt something strange.
With the fierce criticism in the media in the past two days, a subtle atmosphere gradually spread throughout the orchestra, and the members of the group now look at Sun Yun with something inexplicable.
Of course, Sun Yun knew what the members of the festival orchestra were looking at him now, and all kinds of eyes mixed with feelings of pity, ridicule, pity, contempt, and spitting swept over him without a trace, and then shifted away, which made Ji Min. The hairs on Sun Yun's body trembled slightly, and his heart was torn to pieces little by little by such a look.
The depressive and painful feeling that makes people crazy - this is how Sun Yun feels at this moment.
This feeling made him want to flee the building at once, from the large rehearsal hall where all the members were ready, from the black steinway grand concert piano that was quietly placed at the front of the band.
Escape it all!
In the course of forty-five years of life, Sun Yun has never fallen into such an embarrassing situation! And Sun Yun can't defend himself, let alone get rid of it!
At this moment, he even thought of death!
But......
Sun Yun put away the smile that had been hanging on his face in the past, and gently pursed the corners of his mouth.
……
"Teacher, teacher, are you alright?" Ye Zi gently pushed Sun Yun's arm and asked in a low voice and carefully.
After coming to Xiangjiang, Ye Zi has been by Sun Yun's side all the time except when he sleeps at night in the past few days. This plan was proposed by him, even if he was not afraid that Sun Yun would be able to withstand this hurdle in the end, but he was afraid of anything, Ye Zi would never let Sun Yun have any unexpected situation under his nose.
Especially in this context.
As soon as he entered the rehearsal hall just now, those glances made Ye Zidu feel a slight tingling on his skin all of a sudden, he had never expected such a situation, the gaze of dozens of pairs of eyes - the gaze with a strange look would make him feel unsteady on his feet. At the concert of tens of thousands of people, Ye Zi was able to maintain peace of mind in the face of the madness of the fans, but today, the gaze of less than 100 people made him feel a heart-to-heart coolness invade one after another. This kind of silent cold gaze with all kinds of complicated thoughts, each gaze is like a cold arrow, fiercely stabbing in the direction of the focus of the gaze, making Ye Zi want to use a long roar to the sky to dispel this cold feeling.
As the saying goes, "what a thousand people refer to, it ends without a problem" may be talking about a situation similar to this.
Even his accompanying disciple already felt like this, Sun Yun bore the brunt of it, and it was conceivable how much pressure he was under.
People are warm and cold, it's really unpredictable!
"I'm fine, you go find a place to sit down, rehearsals are about to begin." As soon as he spoke, Sun Yun's voice was still a little trembling, but when it came to the back, his voice was already as stable as ever.
But just now, Ye Zi saw him standing in place in a daze with a pale face, which was also the reason why Ye Zi woke him up.
Where can Ye Zi rest assured.
"Teacher ......"
"Don't worry, little Yezi," Sun Yun patted Ye Zi's arm and cut off his words: "I have carried ten years of despair and torture, and this time ......"
A faint smile actually appeared on the corner of Sun Yun's mouth again: "I'm not ready to admit defeat this time!" ”
"Xiao Yezi, go find a place to sit, I'm going to make preparations too."
"Okay, teacher, be careful, don't worry."
"Hmm."
Patting Ye Zi's arm again, Sun Yun walked steadily to the steinway lying there quietly under the silent gaze of everyone in the orchestra, sat down as if no one was around, opened the score and put it on the open music shelf.
Taking a deep breath, Sun Yun's hands gently rested on the black and white keys and closed his eyes.
……
The rehearsal time has come, but Cai Qingde, the conductor, did not appear.
Five minutes have passed since the rehearsal time, and Cai Qingde still hasn't appeared.
The originally quiet rehearsal hall gradually resounded with the buzzing of the members, and an unsettling atmosphere gradually enveloped the entire rehearsal hall. Cai Qingde, the conductor, hates the members of the troupe late and leaving early on weekdays, and he himself is the most observant of time, and the things that are less than obsolete in rehearsals have not happened a few times in decades, and every time he appears, something big happens, and today ...... What's going on here?
The old members glanced at Sun Yun, who was sitting in front of the piano with his eyes closed and contemplative, and they all had some ominous premonitions in their hearts.
Sun Yun was at ease, still sitting quietly on the piano bench, waiting for the conductor to arrive.
……
Cai Qingde's exclusive lounge.
"Sir, the Board of Directors would like you to give some explanations on the media reports in the last two days, and if time permits, Chairman Yi would like to have an exchange of views with you in advance, and then convene a meeting of the Board of Directors to discuss solutions." A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses stood there and said politely.
"Explain? I, Cai Qingde, don't need the board of directors to dictate things. Cai Qingde sat firmly in his place: "Now is the busiest time, I don't think there is any need to hold a board meeting, if the board feels that my presence has hindered the development of the festival orchestra, I can voluntarily submit my resignation, but it must be after these two concerts." That's my explanation if they need it. ”
"You can help me bring another sentence to Yi Feng, for the art industry that he doesn't know very well, he, as the chairman, should not be too gullible and dispose of it at will. Art is completely different from business, he can play with business, but he may not be able to play with art. ”
"Okay, I've been delayed a lot of rehearsal time, do you have anything else?"
Cai Qingde was already obviously impatient.
Five minutes later, Cai Qingde appeared in the rehearsal hall.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am very sorry that some trivial matters have delayed everyone's precious time, and I solemnly apologize to everyone."
Standing on the command seat, Cai Qingde bowed slightly.
"Okay, now the rehearsal has officially begun."
Cai Qingde raised his baton.
……
The rehearsal process in the morning was unremarkable, and Sun Yun's performance was still the kind of extremely mechanical performance according to the score, which sounded a bit like chewing wax. The orchestra's performance became even more lazy, even if Cai Qingde was so angry that he scolded the members, and in the following rehearsals, the orchestra's performance was as unsatisfactory as Sun Yun's.
Cai Qingde was extremely helpless.
He knew that the orchestra's poor performance was not entirely to blame for the members, the concerto was tightly tied to the lead player, and how could they perform at a high level without high-level players to guide them and give them enough stimulation?
So the crux of the problem is still Sun Yun.
And Cai Qingde can no longer put forward higher requirements to the members of the league, they are now looking at Sun Yun with a faint unkindness in their eyes, they are already extremely dissatisfied in their hearts, and if they put forward more and higher requirements, it will arouse the resistance of the members.
Cai Qingde can disdain the accountability of the board of directors and force the chairman's invitation, but if he faces the drastic changes in the members of the group, he will be powerless as a conductor.
……
Cai Qingde and the members of the troupe all felt that Sun Yun's performance had not improved, and there was still no wave, but in Ye Zi's ears, there were some gratifying signs in Sun Yun's performance this morning.
A subtle emotion that can be called "anger", "stubbornness" or "stubbornness" is brewing secretly underneath the depths of Sun Yun's still mechanically rigid performance. Occasionally, a small bubble would rise from the bottom, and Sun Yun's performance would change slightly—a change with strong emotional overtones—a change that everyone wanted to see. However, such a bubble is still too small and scarce to immediately attract Cai Qingde's attention.
In the rehearsal time that has been as long as a month, there have been occasional improvements, and when Ye Zi arrived in Xiangjiang two days ago, didn't Sun Yun's performance also show signs of improvement? But these signs of improvement, without exception, all disappeared without a trace after a short period of time, leaving everyone happy. Now, this occasional "good news" can no longer attract the attention of Cai Qingde and others.
But...... Regardless of whether Cai Qingde and the others have noticed it, these tiny and scarce bubbles are slowly increasing and expanding under the continuous heating of emotions such as "anger", "stubbornness", and "stubbornness".
Ye Zi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. (To be continued.) )
