"Chen Sa, come on, I wish you a pass!" Seeing Chen Sa get up and prepare to walk towards the waiting area, several Chinese players, including Lang Lang, cheered her on.

"Well, you guys should do their best." Chen Sa pretended to be relaxed and said to these people. Her luck was really not too good, and she actually won the lottery in the first round of the lottery and drew a number one. No matter what kind of art competition, the first few will suffer more or less. Chen Sa drew the No. 1 lot, and he was naturally a little nervous.

"First of all, I invited the No. 1 contestant, Chen Sa from China, to play, and her repertoire was "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6". Michelle introduced. With her introduction, Chen Sa, who was wearing a purple dress, appeared on stage.

Chen Sa is rich in classical Chinese beauty, and her slight plumpness not only does not detract from this, but makes her more attractive. The beauty effect cannot be underestimated, and before Chen Sa started to play on stage, the cameras and cameras in the audience began to "click" into a sound. Even the five judges looked at her a few more times.

"Oh, the player from China." Berezovsky muttered softly. In the past few days, because of his contact with Liu Yufan, he has paid more attention to the players from China. Before that, Berezovsky had some prejudices about the Chinese piano, because he always felt that in that closed and backward piano education system, great pianists could not be born. However, Liu Yufan changed his view and made him believe that it was possible to produce excellent pianists in China. And this Chen Sa is also from China. Naturally, Berezovsky also has a little more expectations for her performance.

Feeling the attention of several judges, Chen Sa felt a little nervous. This playing angle. Several judges can clearly see every detail of her movements on the keys. And these five judges are all famous Taishan Beidou figures in the international piano world today. Playing the piano in front of them, I'm afraid there are few pianists in the world who can do it without being nervous at all.

Exhaled softly. Chen Sa tried to calm himself down, and a pair of snow-white Hao wrists were lightly raised, and they fell towards the piano keys in an instant!

"Wow~~~" A roaring piano sounded, the rumbling bass rhythm of the left hand, and the main theme of the right hand with a vigorous march style, together formed a passionate and progressive sound flow, which was Liszt's famous "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6"!

Liszt's works are rarely "tender like water". Always full of excitement, gorgeousness, etc., this "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6" is one of the most representative rhapsodies he composed, integrating elements of Hungarian folk dance, and the whole piece gives a sense of enthusiasm and excitement.

Chen Sa's basic skills are still very solid, although he is still a little nervous emotionally, but the technical movements in his hands are not too deformed. The whole song is played in a regular manner, and the details are also in place. Overall, it's a relatively normal play.

What's more interesting is that Chen Sa will unconsciously purse his mouth when he plays the piano. And then relax, and then pout, it seems to interpret the mood of the music in this way, which looks interesting.

And when she plays some rhythmic parts, her body will sway from side to side regularly, and this action looks a bit like a piano teacher. Liu Yufan is very familiar with this movement, and when he takes music lessons, his piano teacher at the Normal School will habitually make this movement. Although it looked quite spirited at the time, it looks somewhat rigid now.

"The technique is good, but it's a pity that I haven't let go, and I still lack stage experience." Berezovsky watched Chen Sa's performance, and his face showed a look of pity. Obviously, this beautiful female pianist, who is also from China, did not show the strength and level that surprised him. This also made him realize that geniuses like Liu Yufan are not available everywhere. "Chinese-style mythology" is not something that can happen anytime and anywhere. …,

However, from the perspective of the competition, Chen Sa's piece is still quite good. At the end, the audience gave a round of applause to illustrate this point.

Standing up from the piano, Chen Sa's forehead was already slightly sweaty. From beginning to end, this piece lasted just over four minutes, and it stands to reason that the physical consumption alone could not make her like this, which shows that the tension in her heart still had a certain impact on her performance.

Bowing to the audience, Chen Sa walked off the stage with some regret.

Because she didn't know what her grades were, she was still a little apprehensive in her heart. The rules of the Liszt Cup piano competition are very strange, and the score is not scored on the spot. Although many players were unhappy with this, the rule was followed. The stubborn Dutchman believes that this way of playing is the best.

Returning to the player's seat, Chen Sa just sat down and said, "Oh, I'm nervous, I'm nervous, I seem to have smashed it." ”

"No, I think you're pretty good at playing, just let it go a little longer." Liu Yufan said to her with a smile.

"Really, I feel like I can't let go. But you know what? Sitting next to the piano and looking at the five judges, I was so nervous, hey, the psychological quality is still not good. Chen Sa said with some annoyance.

"It's okay, just do your best, just don't take the game too seriously. Trust me, with your results, it's definitely no problem to make it to the semifinals. Liu Yufan smiled and comforted her.

"It's really fake, borrow your auspicious words, if I really live, please eat." Chen Sa, who returned to the audience, obviously regained his lively nature, and said to a few people with a smile. Anyway, it's already over, and the results are not decided by themselves, Chen Sa quickly adjusted his mood now.

"Hehe, then I'll just wait for a big meal." Liu Yufan said with a smile.

"No, Chen Sa, let him invite you, this guy is a big money, and he has money." Wang Yujia said half-jokingly on the side.

"Yes, I prove it." Lang Lang helped on the side.

Li Yundi, who was sitting next to them, couldn't help but feel a little lost when he watched several people chatting and laughing. He has a somewhat introverted personality, and when he first met a few of them, he just nodded and said hello, and he didn't know what to say. Playing outside alone, Li Yundi was very envious of their atmosphere. I wanted to join in, but I couldn't seem to find any topics.

"Hey, Yundi, get to know, my name is Sun Yingdi, from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, both of us have a Di character in our names, and it can be regarded as fate." A young man with curly hair and glasses sitting next to Li Yundi greeted him with a smile, and then stretched out his hand.

"Oh, hello Hello, Yingdi, I've heard of you before, and this time you're here alone?" Only then did Li Yundi realize that behind him, there was a compatriot sitting there.

"Hehe, yes. By the way, what are your numbers? Sun Yingdi asked with a smile.

"Oh, the 16th, I guess it's my turn in the morning." Li Yundi said with a smile.

"Well, good luck. I'm the 42nd, I guess it's enough to choke today, so I'll sit in the audience and watch you play, hehe. Sun Yingdi said with a smile. Compared with Li Yundi, he is obviously more talkative.

"Well, those guys over there look familiar. I know that Lang Lang, it used to be alto, and now I heard that it is in Curtis, which is amazing. Sun Yingdi glanced over there and said with a smile.

"Yes, I've heard him play the piano too, and he's pretty good." Li Yundi had already noticed a few people over there, and when he heard Sun Yingdi say this, he smiled and agreed.

"Huh? How could that Maxim sit with them and still look familiar? By the way, who is that person, his eyes are very raw. Sun Yingdi noticed Liu Yufan, who was chatting with Maxim, and asked a little strangely. …,

"I don't know, it looks like it's quite raw." Li Yundi shook his head and said.

In fact, in the domestic entertainment industry, Liu Yufan is also a little famous. It's just that these two are "piano nerds", and they don't pay much attention to other things except the piano, so although Liu Yufan has made a little fame in the pop music industry, because he has never shown his face in international piano competitions or performances, these two don't know him very well.

At this time, the sound of the curtain on the stage interrupted the chat between the two people, and the second player entered the court.

This is a young pianist from the Royal Alice Academy of Music in England, named Mai Ruian, with beautiful blonde hair and a black evening gift, which makes her look like an international star. However, the appearance is relatively ordinary, although it also belongs to the same as Chen Sa with a little "plump", but it seems to be "plump" too much, and the thick and fat "jade arms" exposed outside are very visually impactful.

She played Liszt's Sonata in B minor, which is a relatively obscure work. Liszt wrote very few sonatas in his lifetime, and this one is rare in public.

With the start of Mai Rui'an's performance, Liu Yufan also stopped talking with everyone, and stood up and said: "Everyone, I'm going to wait for the venue too, my luck is a little high in the order, no way, hehe." ”

"Come on, boss!" Maxim gave Liu Yufan a thumbs up and said.

"Hehe, so are you." Liu Yufan smiled and nodded at a few people, and then walked to the backstage.

"He's on the waiting list." Seeing Liu Yufan leave the table and get up, Sun Yingdi patted Li Yundi's shoulder and signaled.

Liu Yufan's luck in the preliminaries was indeed "good", and he drew the fifth number, and after listening to a song in a hurry, he was ready to perform on stage. This is his first appearance in this kind of international piano competition, and all those who follow him are quietly waiting for his performance! (To be continued)
