Chapter 112: Water Town in a Dream
"That being said, I have zero experience in stage acting, and without acting experience, everything is equal to zero. By the way, Brother Yu Han, I wanted to discuss one thing with you a long time ago, I found that every time I play with someone else's flute ensemble, the cooperation is particularly awkward, either the other party is wrong, or I am wrong, but when I play separately, it is very smooth, and I don't know what is going on? Chu Ning said bitterly.
"Wasn't it good every time we played in an ensemble in the past? Have you tried to change people? Lin Yuhan pondered.
"I tried, but I didn't think it was my ensemble's problem, it must be my own problem, because apart from playing with the flute ensemble, the other instruments worked very well, which is a problem I've always been very depressed about."
"Chu Ning, is your school's piano room open now?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Chu Ning asked puzzled.
"Let's go, you take me to the piano room."
Although Chu Ning was a little puzzled, she vaguely understood what Lin Yuhan meant, so she took Lin Yuhan straight to the piano room.
"Chu Ning, say it! What tune would you like to play together? When the two of them got everything ready in the piano room, Lin Yuhan stood at the end of Chu Ning's piano and asked Chu Ning confidently.
"Which one do you like?" Chu Ning asked rhetorically.
"Why don't you have that song "Dream Water Town"?" Lin Yuhan thought for a moment and blurted out.
"Good!" As soon as Chu Ning's words fell, Lin Yuhan's flute had already started the prelude:
'Spring dusk, please accompany me to the water town in my dreams/The waving hand drifts in the mist/Don't wake up the touching past on the willow bank/Turn into a wisp of light smoke and disappear into the distance/Pieces of pink clothes flash in the warm afternoon/No one can carry away the ancient window/The exquisite boy waits for a lifetime on the shore/Why can't you be the bride of your dreams/The faint lovesickness is written on the face/The layers of parting are carried on the shoulder/Tears flow through the face/All the words are still not spoken......
When Lin Yuhan's melodious and penetrating flute sound, accompanied by the bright, crisp and pleasant sound of the piano, passed through the piano room to every corner of the piano room, everyone who entered the ears felt that the aftertaste was lingering and the aftertaste was long.
The piano room next door was Jiang Xu and Zhang Shaoyang, and when they heard this song "Water Town in Dreams", the two stopped communicating and quietly listened to this intoxicating ensemble song.
You must know that any solo performance is just a personal performance, and it can be slightly adjusted and changed according to the preferences of each player. But when it comes to ensemble, tacit understanding is the soul and essence of the whole performance process. When a piece comes down, if there is any flaw in the middle, the whole piece will be completely discarded, so even if one party reveals a little flaw during the performance, but the other party can save it in time in the next second, which is also awe-inspiring.
And this "Dream Water Town", there are no flaws in the whole process, presumably only after long-term tacit cooperation can achieve such a state.
Jiang Xu was quite familiar with Chu Ning's playing techniques, so he could quickly hear that the guzheng player in the piano room next door was undoubtedly Chu Ning. But for this flute player, he is very unfamiliar, recently, he has also been worried about Chu Ning's Zheng and flute ensemble problem, because as an excellent player, playing with anyone must be water*melting, and Chu Ning is undoubtedly an excellent player, but she has been unable to integrate with flute collaborators, which makes him very troubled. But now the song "Dream Water Town" that she collaborates with others is played seamlessly.
"Teacher Jiang, who is this ensemble? How well did they cooperate? Zhang Shaoyang was the first to break the silence.
"Let's go, Shaoyang! Let's go over and see. Jiang Xu got up and walked towards the outside of the piano with Zhang Shaoyang.
"Teacher Jiang, Senior Zhang--" When Chu Ning and Lin Yuhan were still immersed in the aftermath just now, Jiang Xu and Zhang Shaoyang pushed open the door of the piano room.
Zhang Shaoyang was very surprised when he saw Chu Ning, of course, the next second, he changed to explore Lin Yuhan.
"Is it really you?" Jiang Xu first looked at Chu Ning, and then turned to look at Lin Yuhandao.
"Hello Mr. Jiang! Hello! Lin Yuhan also turned around and greeted Jiang Xu respectfully, and nodded at Zhang Shaoyang.
"You played it a lot! Forgive the teacher's clumsiness, who is this? Jiang Xuchao looked at Lin Yuhan, his eyes shining.
"Teacher Jiang, my surname is Lin, Shuangmulin, Lin Yuhan, and I am not a student of this school." Lin Yuhan introduced himself.
"That's a pity, Chu Ning--" Jiang Xu called Chu Ning over.
"Teacher Jiang--" Chu Ning asked with some apprehension in the face of Jiang Xu's serious eyes.
"Tell me how you feel when you play with this Mr. Lin?" Jiang Xu asked straight to the point.
"Feelings? It's natural and harmonious. Chu Ning thought about it and said his truest thoughts.
"What about the ensemble with the school?" Jiang Xu asked again.
"Resistance, Mr. Jiang, and --, passivity counts?" Chu Ning asked in a low voice. As soon as she finished speaking, she was exchanged for Zhang Shaoyang's light cough and sneer, Chu Ning glared at Zhang Shaoyang, and looked at Jiang Xu reverently.
"How long have you been playing together?" Jiang Xu then asked.
"How long? It's been about ten years! "I'm not sure about the time.
"Teacher Jiang, to be exact, it has been eleven years." Lin Yuhan corrected.
"Hmmm! Chu Ning, I may have found your reason, I have free time next week, you will come directly to this piano room every day after class, and I will wait for you here with another flute ensemble. Jiang Xu lowered his head and muttered for a while, then raised his head and said to Chu Ning.
"Okay, I'll be here on time." Chu Ning understood what Jiang Xu said, and must have known the crux of her.
"Then you go on, we have something to communicate next door." Jiang Xu and Zhang Shaoyang nodded to the two of them respectively, and then left the piano room.
"Chu Ning, this Professor Jiang Xu is so majestic." Lin Yuhan found a stool and sat down, playing with the flute.
"Mr. Jiang is not a person who plays prestige, but he acts decisively and does not drag mud and water." Chu Ning also sat down opposite Lin Yuhan.
"Chu Ning, since your professional teacher has found the crux of your problem, I won't judge it, but the resistance and negativity I heard you say just now are too undesirable, I was not born in music, but I know that the mentality is very important when playing in the ensemble, you and your ensemble are originally lacking tacit understanding, and you still use negative emotions to resist him, even if others are immortals, they can't cooperate with you, and you also said that both sides will make mistakes when playing the ensemble, I think it's because you interrupted the rhythm of others, and others will make mistakes."
"Probably! That made me even more frustrated. Chu Ning lowered his head guiltily.
"Let's go! It's almost time to make an appointment with my brother to pick me up, so let's go to campus with me! Lin Yuhan said after looking at his watch.
So the two returned to the campus park, but Lin Yuhan kept chatting with her, and never mentioned the one-year appointment between the two brothers, okay! The coming day is long, since Lin Yuhan didn't mention it, it was naturally inconvenient for her to ask.
Not long after, Lin Yuhao called and said that he was already waiting at the gate of Wuyang.
So it was supposed to be an awkward meeting, but it ended in an extremely relaxed atmosphere, Chu Ning thought that Lin Yuhan must be afraid of her embarrassment, so he didn't mention anything about the past.
So after more than a year of ups and downs, the days seem to have returned to a temporary calm.
In the calm days, time is always fleeting, winter goes to spring, snow falls and flowers bloom, and in a blink of an eye, Chu Ning has ushered in the graduation season.
After Lin Yuhan returned to Shanghai that time, he hadn't been back to Y City for more than a year, and naturally he rarely contacted her, even if he had a few phone calls, he was still the casual, ruffian Lin Yuhan on the phone.
On the surface, everything seems to have changed from before, but Chu Ning knows that many things can't go back. Lin Yuhao once told her about the one-year appointment, neither of the two brothers had mentioned it in front of her, Chu Ning already felt that the relationship between the three of them was becoming more and more delicate, just that as long as the two brothers were all right, she had nothing else to ask for.
Lin Yuhao had just finished a meeting about clothing exhibitions, and after walking out of the conference room, he heard the phone ring.
"Brother Yuhao, guess where I am now?" After the phone was connected, Shen Rongrong's brisk voice came, and the background was very noisy.
"Rong Rong, it's so noisy, you won't be at the airport, right?" Lin Yuhao asked suspiciously.
"Brother Yu Hao is so smart, I'll be on the plane in ten minutes! Tomorrow morning it will be on the ground. ”
"It seems to be a little early to graduate now, isn't it time for stilts again?" Lin Yuhao said as he walked.
"No, because I applied for early graduation, I can return to China early!"
"It seems that your face is big enough, and the teacher even gave you the green light for this."
"Because I'm Shen Rongrong?"
"Does the chairman know you're back?"
"I haven't told my dad yet, you have to keep it a secret for me, because I'm going to surprise him!"
"Do you need me to pick you up?" Lin Yuhao shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Of course, but you can't talk to Daddy quietly?" Shen Rongrong admonished.
"The eldest lady speaks, how dare I disobey!" Lin Yuhao assured.
"Then I'm hanging, I'm going to the security checkpoint, Brother Yuhao will see you tomorrow!"
"Alright! See you tomorrow! ”
As soon as Lin Yuhao hung up the phone, the phone rang again.
"Mom, you want to ask your son, will you go back tonight?" Lin Yuhao saw that it was a call from his mother Lin Jinwen, and quickly picked it up.
"You haven't been back to City Y for two weeks, and today happens to be the weekend, but you just called you, and you've been on the phone, are you still so busy?" Lin Jinwen asked on the phone.
"It's not very busy, it's just that you didn't call at the right time." Lin Yuhao said with a smile.
"Isn't it time? Listening to your tone, it must not be a business matter, it can't be chatting with a girl, right? Lin Jinwen asked strangely.
