Chapter 345: The Essence of the Chai Courtyard
Founded in 1866 as the Moscow Conservatory, the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory is a world-renowned center of music education in Russia. Nikolayrubinstein, founded on September 1, 1866. In the early years of its founding, Tchaikovsky taught here.
At 10 a.m., a large Boeing airliner roared down at a Moscow airport. As the plane slowly came to a halt on the tarmac, the cabin doors opened, and passengers poured out like a tidal wave.
Ling Yuan took the lead, took the four students behind him, and walked down the ladder with all the passengers.
Liu Yufan and Chen Siying walked at the back, and at this moment, Liu Yufan's face didn't look so good. This was his first time on a plane, and he sat for several hours, and when the plane swayed from side to side when the plane encountered air currents in the sky, Liu Yufan was so frightened that his face turned pale. It's not about courage, it's the reaction that most people who fly for the first time have.
When the plane landed, Liu Yufan also felt that his head was a little uncomfortable and his forehead was a little painful, Chen Siying explained to him that it might be because the weather was not very good in the past two days, it was a little cold, and his nose was plugged, so there was a problem with the "pressure balance", which would be relieved by itself after a while. Liu Yufan doesn't know such professional terms too well, but he is not very comfortable now anyway.
Chen Siying has been joking with him since she got off the plane.
"Yufan, if you want me to say, you can't do this, you are now the president of a large company, in the future, there will be more opportunities to fly, this is not a way, if you want me to say, you still have to practice, practice hard." Chen Siying said with a smile.
Listen to Chen Siying's words. Liu Yufan was a little crying and laughing, and asked rhetorically: "Senior sister, then how do you say to practice, you have nothing to do every day to play on a plane?" ”
"No, hey, it's useless to tell you now, when I go back, I'll take you to a good place." Let you train well for a few days, and ensure that you will never get airsick when you fly in the future. Chen Siying said seriously.
"Yo, there's a great place." Liu Yufan said with some disbelieving.
When a few people were chatting, they had already come to the airport hall with the flow of people. Ling Yuan took the lead. The first to find the staff sent by the Tchaikovsky Conservatory to pick up the airport, several young people wearing the blue and white costumes of the academy, all holding the words "Welcome to the Central Conservatory of Music of China to our institute for exchanges".
Ling Yuan stepped forward, looked at Naumov, who was standing at the front in a gray suit, and stretched out his hand with a smile.
"Hello, Professor Naumov, I'm sorry for your trouble." Ling Yuan smiled and communicated with Naumov in fluent Russian. In her early years, she also studied in Moscow and spoke Russian well. At that time, China and Russia were still relatively friendly, and there were many exchanges at the academic level. Teachers like Ling Yuan generally speak good Russian. Unlike now, because of the weakening of Russia's national power, Russian is slowly becoming less mainstream in the world, and people are learning English instead.
"Professor Ling Yuan, you are so polite, I'm so happy to see you again, let's go." The car was already waiting for us outside the airport. Naumov said with a smile to Ling Yuan.
Under the leadership of Naumov, the group got on the bus specially sent by the Chaiyuan, and the car slowly drove out of the airport and headed towards the school.
Along the way, through the car window, Liu Yufan kept looking at the scenery on both sides, this was his first time going abroad, and he felt very fresh to see the "foreigners" on the street. In particular, the exotic houses with red spires were very interesting to him.
"Senior brother, how about it, the scenery in Moscow is okay, when you settle down, senior sister will take you around." looked at Liu Yufan constantly looking in the car window. Chen Siying said with some amusement. …,
"Hehe, okay, it's the first time I've been abroad, and I'm a little excited. I didn't expect it to be like this abroad, foreigners all over the street, it's quite interesting. Liu Yufan said with a smile.
"Senior brother, what you said is wrong, here, we are foreigners." Chen Siying said with a giggle.
"Hehe, that's right, that, senior sister, do you speak Russian?" Liu Yufan asked with a smile. If you want to visit Moscow, you must be able to speak Russian, otherwise you will really become a "foreigner" on the street, and it will be difficult to move an inch.
"Cut, no problem." Chen Siying said disdainfully, but the confidence was obviously not enough.
If you want to speak Russian, Chen Siying has also learned some, but it is even worse than "a little bit" according to the standard of "no problem". Children like hers who grew up in a family environment have received the best education from childhood to adulthood, and they are usually trained to communicate normally in foreign languages like this. It's just that Chen Siying is not very "cold" about learning these things, so the level is not normal.
"Look, Yufan, that's Red Square, pretty." When passing through a spacious square, Chen Siying excitedly poked Liu Yufan and asked him to follow the direction of his finger.
Following the direction pointed by Chen Siying, Liu Yufan saw the wide square, and on one side of it, an extremely magnificent large building with red as the main body, and two spires rising high on both sides, with a strong Moscow style. The floor of the square is very flat, paved with large stones, and it looks very "solid".
"This is Red Square." Looking at this large square, Liu Yufan couldn't help but sigh. It was his first time in Moscow, but he had heard of the name "Red Square" for a long time, and now he saw it with his own eyes, and it was very fresh.
"Of course, this is a landmark in Moscow, I'll take you here in two days." Chen Siying said with a smile.
"Hehe, Siying, you seem to be familiar with Moscow, have you been here before?" Liu Yufan asked with a smile.
"I've been here, I've been here a few times when I've been very young, but it's not interesting to come too much, it's cold in winter, and when you come here, you must try the vodka here, it's a favorite of the Russians." Chen Siying said with a look of "I'm familiar here". Liu Yufan also knows some things about her, so she does not shy away from showing her "experience" in front of Liu Yufan.
Ling Yuan had been sitting in front of the two of them, chatting with Naumov with a pair. But the content of the conversation between the two people was also heard in her ears. There was nothing in front, hearing Chen Siying's left sentence "I'll take you out to play in a few days" and the right sentence "vodka", she couldn't help it, turned her head and said: "Siying, Yu Fan, this time, you are mainly here to learn the advanced teaching experience of the Chai Academy, to learn knowledge, to grow skills, there are no special things, don't go out of school casually, you know?" ”
Hearing Ling Yuan say this, Chen Siying secretly stuck out her little tongue, nodded and said, "I know, Teacher Ling, I won't take Liu Yufan to run around." ”
Listening to Ling Yuan's words, Liu Yufan was nothing, after all, Chen Siying was talking alone just now, and he was listening. However, Ling Yuan's words also gave him a wake-up call. This time, I didn't come to visit the mountains and rivers, I said that it was an exchange, but Ling Yuan had told everyone in private before, in the final analysis, this was a "competition" between the two academies in secret. The last time people came to the alto, it was an away game, and the alto side was a small lead with the hard work of a few people. This time when he arrived on someone's territory, it was inevitable that there would be a few vicious fights, and he was thinking about tourism before he stabilized, so it was no wonder that Ling Yuan was unhappy. ..., seeing the two people deflated, Chen Sa was secretly amused. This Chen Siying is really too much to steal the limelight. From getting off the plane to now, I've been saying no, it's okay, I've been criticized by the teacher, it's time to stop.
Chen Sa didn't have any malicious thoughts, he just looked at Chen Siying and Liu Yufan together, the two of them were talking and laughing, and he felt a little uncomfortable. Everyone came all the way here to communicate, the two of them are fine, old acquaintances, a couple, how good. In contrast, if you are alone, it is much more "desolate". Liu Yufan is the only boy in the team, seeing that along the way, Chen Siying "occupied" him, and did not give him the slightest "opportunity" to contact himself and Chen Yujia, Chen Sa was a little reluctant in his heart. This is a very wonderful state of mind, although she knows that she has nothing to do with Liu Yufan, but when she sees people so "affectionate", she feels a little uncomfortable.
Wang Yujia is nothing, from the time she got on the plane to the present, she has been reading quietly. She was reading a professional book on the history of Western music, and this serious study did make several people heartbroken. The captain is the captain, and he does have a leading appearance.
"Ling, it's here, let's go down." When the car crossed a large road lined with trees and stopped in front of a gate made of beautiful white marble, Naumov stood up and warmly beckoned everyone to get out of the car.
"This is the Tchaikovsky Conservatory, it looks like it's very feeling." Liu Yufan got out of the car and looked at the campus in front of him. The entrance is not big, but the white marble doorposts, the campus floor paved with bluestone slabs, the various buildings hidden in the shade of green trees, and the leisurely students walking in pairs and threes on the campus make this place full of a strong campus flavor, which is very pure.
"Yes, don't look at it ordinary, this is the top five music conservatories in the world." Chen Siying said with a smile.
The words of the two men reached Naumov's ears, and the latter smiled a smug smile. Naumov was proficient in Chinese, so he naturally understood what the two students were talking about, and when he heard them praise Chaiyuan, he was naturally very proud.
"Hehe, wait and see, the foundation of the Chai Courtyard is far more than that. This month, you will slowly see. Naumov thought to himself, and his steps were a little faster.
