Volume 2 Piano Competition Chapter 166 is the first again

"Duan Zilian: You also came to watch today's game?"

Although she asked, Duan Zilian was sure that Xu Ying must have come to watch the game, because this video was posted by her to the class group.

Although the game does not allow irrelevant people to watch in the theater, for fear that it will affect the order of the game, Xu Ying's father is the district head, and if she wants to go through the back door, she only needs to say something.

After half a minute, Xu Ying replied to the message.

"Xu Ying: Hmm."

"Xu Ying: I don't have anything to do at home anyway, so I just came over to watch the game."

"Xu Ying: Can't you?"

After reading Xu Ying's message, Duan Zilian typed on his mobile phone.

"Duan Zilian: I didn't say no, it's just, you came to watch the game, why didn't you say anything?"

"Xu Ying: I don't want to disturb you."

"Xu Ying: Judging by the judges' reactions, you should be able to get a good ranking, congratulations first."

"Duan Zi Lian: Hmm."

ended the short exchange with Xu Ying, Duan Zilian thoughtfully, judging from the current situation, Xu Ying should have given up on herself, after all, she hadn't taken the initiative to contact her for several days, and she didn't come to look for herself when she came to see the game.

said "sorry" to Xu Ying in his heart, and Duan Zilian looked at the news in the class group.

"Class leader: I checked it, this piece is called "Wild Bees Flying", and this version played by Brother Duan is known as one of the fastest piano pieces in the world!"

"Cui Kairui: Damn, this hand speed is amazing! (Marvel. JPG)』

"Cui Kairui: Pity, I've been single for so many years, why is your hand speed so good? (Funny. JPG)』

……

Looking at the messages sent by the squad leader, Cui Kairui and others in the class group, Duan Zi couldn't help laughing, typed on his mobile phone, and chatted with them, until the restaurant waiter brought the dishes, it didn't end, and he had lunch with the principal.

After lunch, Duan Zilian and the principal went back to the hotel to rest for a while, and at two o'clock in the afternoon, the piano competition started again, and it was the turn of more than ten or twenty people to perform on stage.

In the afternoon game, there was basically nothing to do with himself, Duan Zilian wanted to continue to rest and sleep in the hotel room, but the rules did not allow it.

There was no way, Duan Zilian could only stay in the theater with nothing to do.

After all, except for a few people who had some highlights when playing, most of the other contestants were so ordinary that they wanted to sleep.

However, Duan Zilian didn't dare to sleep blatantly on such an occasion, so in desperation, he could only hold on, fight against fatigue, and listen passively.

In the midst of such torment, time passed slowly.

Soon, the 36th contestant took the stage.

Duan Zilian in the audience immediately perked up and cheered up, because the No. 36 contestant was Li Shuning.

And with Li Shuning's level, Duan Zilian can look forward to what kind of performance she has.

Even the judges moved their bodies, changed their previous lazy and boring expressions, straightened their clothes, and prepared to enjoy Li Shuning's performance.

Obviously, they all know what Li Shuning's level is, if in this game, what they are most looking forward to is Duan Zilian's performance, then the second place is Li Shuning.

Although Li Shuning played a wrong note in the preliminary round, the judges could see that her level was not much different from that of Duan Zilian.

Soon, Li Shuning came to the stage, and she slowly walked onto the stage with the support of the staff, on crutches.

Because of the inconvenience of her legs and feet, Li Shuning sat on a chair to introduce herself.

Then, the performance begins.

With the movement of the fingers, a soothing and beautiful melody wafts out.

After listening with his eyes closed, Duan Zilian knew what kind of tune Li Shuning was playing.

"The Mark of the Rain" is also a more famous song, with a gentle and beautiful rhythm, and it is not very difficult.

But such a gentle song, under Li Shuning's performance, burst out with strong emotions.

Obviously, she put her own emotions into the song, giving it a soul, making it come alive all of a sudden, and it doesn't sound empty at all.

The judges all nodded appreciatively, which is why they have expectations for Li Shuning.

Although Li Shuning's skills are a little worse than Duan Zilian, she, like Duan Zilian, can play the soul of the song and give it vitality, instead of being like others, which is good-sounding but lacks spirituality and has nothing to show for it.

The beautiful melody slowly echoed in the hall, and under the fine notes, the hearts of the listeners slowly calmed down and immersed themselves in the mood of the music.

Just like the name of this piece, the melody is like a raindrop sliding down the window, and it also leaves a slippery mark in people's hearts, revealing a trace of melancholy and a burst of warm thoughts.

Listening to this fascinating melody, Duan Zilian admitted that Li Shuning was a real genius.

Although Duan Zilian has also heard others say that he is a genius, he is very aware of his situation, if it were not for Noah's light to stimulate his potential and improve his talent, he would never have achieved such an achievement on the piano now.

To put it simply, he's hanging up.

But Li Shuning is different, at this age, she can have a level and skills that are not much different from Duan Zilian, and she can also integrate her own feelings into the song and play the soul of the song, such a person is not a genius, what else can he be?

Therefore, in the field of piano, compared with his peers, Li Shuning can be regarded as an out-of-specification existence.

However, Duan Zilian didn't think there was anything strange about this, after all, no matter what industry, there are always some geniuses who can distance themselves from others in the same industry.

Four minutes later, when the last note echoed and disappeared, the theater burst into applause.

The judges applauded.

"Yes, this melody has the grace of jumping and the emotion of chanting, it is not in a hurry or slow, and the rhythm is very well grasped, like a stream on a mountain, it is really a rare song!" One of the judges laughed and commented.

The second judge nodded approvingly: "Well, it's really very good and wonderful." ”

The other three judges also made their own comments, all of which were praised and appreciated.

Li Shuning happily thanked her, and then walked off the stage slowly on crutches.

After that, there were a few more people on the field, but there were no bright spots, the rules were decent, and they were mediocre.

By three o'clock or four o'clock, the game was officially over, but everyone couldn't leave yet because there was still the award ceremony.

The judges are discussing the rankings, first selecting the champion, runner-up and third runner-up from the many participating students, and the three selected people will represent their city to participate in the final provincial finals.

As for the rest of the specific rankings, they will be announced on the official website in a day or two.

It's just a matter of deciding who will go first to third, and it doesn't take much time to discuss, and in less than five minutes, the judges have already selected the candidates.

The host took the microphone to the stage and announced the list of winners.

The first place is Duan Zilian, which is expected by everyone, looking at the reaction of the judges at the time, they know who the winner of the championship is.

Hearing that Duan Zilian was the first place, the principal in the audience was stunned for a moment, although he knew that Duan Zilian could be promoted nine times out of ten, but he didn't expect it to be the first place, which made him clench his fists excitedly after reacting, and he was very happy to show off to the principal of the third middle school next to him.

And the second place is Li Shuning, which is not surprising.

As for the third place, it was a boy with glasses.

In fact, regarding the candidates for the first and second place, before the competition is over, the judges already have the results in their hearts, and the key is the third place, which is not a good choice.

After all, in the eyes of the judges, except for Duan Zilian and Li Shuning, everyone else's performance is much better.

So, for about five minutes, the judges were all discussing who would come in third.

After announcing the list of winners, Duan Zilian, Li Shuning, and the boy with glasses all walked on the stage to receive the award in the warm applause of the audience, and a special guest presented them with trophies.

is different from the preliminary round, this time the trophy is bigger, and the gold content is more, Duan Zilian holds it in his hand, and he has a feeling of being heavy all the time.

Moreover, unlike the preliminary round, the three of them had to take turns to give a simple acceptance speech.

Duan Zilian didn't have anything to say, so he said it by the way.

Li Shuning is similar.

But the boy who won the third place was a little nervous and incoherent, he didn't expect that he could also get the ranking, which made him very surprised, because he knew very well that compared to Duan Zilian and Li Shuning, his level was not worth mentioning.

The award ceremony ended, and the three of them walked off the stage.

As for the prize money, the tournament organizers will put the money into their account after two or three days.
