Yo-Yo Ma said that he would handle the concert, and Li Yange was very relieved to hand it over to the other party to be fully responsible.

If you want to come to Yo-Yo Ma in New York for so many years, you must know a lot of concert companies, or similar brokerage companies.

After the end, Li Yange took everyone back to the hotel, and at this time, the hotel had also prepared a celebration banquet, they were all acquaintances, and the big guy was also drinking while venting the hard work of rehearsing during this time.

"Li Yange!"

Zhuo Jun walked quickly to Li Yange with a smile on his face, and a middle-aged man was followed closely behind him.

"Zhuo reporter! I thought you weren't coming! When he was backstage before, Li Yange didn't see the Xinhua News Agency reporter Zhuo Jun, and thought that the other party was going back, but he didn't expect to come to the hotel to participate in the celebration banquet.

Zhuo Jun said: "Haha, how could I not come to your celebration banquet?" Before, I sent someone to send the news back, but I delayed a little time, and I hurried here when I was done. ”

"That's the case, reporter Nazhuo, we have to have a good drink later, thank you for the last interview."

When Li Yange came to the United States to attend the Oscars in March, he had an exclusive interview with Zhuo Jun, and he didn't care much about it at that time. However, when he came to the United States again this time, he was grateful to see so many Chinese audiences at the concert, and to hear that they had all read the content from the Xinhua News Agency's news newspapers.

Zhuo Jun said: "Eh, I still have to thank you for the interview, do you know that during that interview, our newspaper sales increased by 7 percent." ”

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then Li Yange looked at the middle-aged man behind Zhuo Jun, and asked curiously, "Reporter Zhuo, I don't know who this gentleman is?" ”

"Oh, look at my brain!" Zhuo Jun patted his head and said with remorse: "Consul Chen, looking at my memory, I just wanted to introduce you." Li Yange, let me introduce you to Vice Consul Chen of our embassy. ”

"It's okay, it's fun to listen to you guys talk."

Consul Chen didn't wait for Zhuo Jun's introduction, and took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said: "Li Yange, I have admired you for a long time, and I have heard your name when I won the Oscar before." ”

Hearing that the other party was the consul of the embassy, although Li Yange was surprised in his heart, he still maintained a polite smile on his face, stretched out his hand and smiled: "Hello Consul Chen!" ”

"I listened to your concert today and it was great! is worthy of being an excellent young composer in China, whether it is your "Memories of the Forbidden City" or "The Dream of the Hexi Corridor", it is very good! There are also "Three Alleys of Plum Blossoms" and "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", which are also played so well, I haven't heard these two pieces for several years, but I didn't expect that when I listened to them again, it was in this distant American land! ”

As the consul of the embassy in the United States, Consul Chen prefers to promote the music of the motherland, so his favorites are "Dream of the Hexi Corridor" and "Memories of the Forbidden City", as well as several classic folk music in China.

In particular, the song "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night" almost evoked Consul Chen's longing for the motherland after a long absence!

After feeling some emotion in his heart, Consul Chen sighed and said, "It's a pity, you only have one concert in this concert, otherwise, I would like to bring my colleagues to listen to it." ”

Li Yange hurriedly said: "Consul Chen, we are already communicating with the United States and are ready to arrange a few more concerts. ”

"That's great! Looks like I can listen to it again. Consul Chen's face was happy, he himself loves music, and he can play a good erhu, so he is very happy to hear the concert.

Seeing the other party's happy expression, Li Yange hesitated for a moment and said, "Consul Chen, I don't know if there is a larger venue in the embassy?" ”

"How?"

"I want to take the orchestra to the embassy to play live for the comrades!" Li Yange has this idea, or because of Consul Chen's sentence "being on American soil".

The work of the embassy is no better than others, and there may not be a chance to go back once a year, and he is stationed in the embassy all the year round, and everything he sees and hears is a foreigner, Li Yange thought to himself that he happened to bring the Dunhuang Orchestra over this time, so it was better to go to the embassy to perform once.

Consul Chen's eyes lit up and said, "Doesn't this delay your concert?" ”

"The specific time has not yet been decided, so there is no delay."

"Okay, I'll ask the Consul General for instructions when I go back, if I can, I hope the time can be delayed for a few days, just in a while it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival and the 11th National Day, and then our embassy will also hold an event with the compatriots in Chinatown, if Comrade Li can bring the orchestra members to perform, I think it will be very exciting!"

"No problem!"

It's only early September, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming to the end of the month, and the National Day is also on the side.

Night.

With the end of the celebration banquet, everyone left one after another, and when they were about to go back to the room to rest, Li Yange gathered everyone together and talked about how many concerts there might be and how many more performances to the embassy.

For the performance of the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day activities of the embassy, everyone was enthusiastic and agreed, but for the next concert, Senior Sister He Shufeng's words were a little ungood.

She is now a visiting professor at the University of Texas at Austin and Southwestern University, specializing in Chinese music.

Originally, school had started a few days ago, but she had also taken a few days off for the performance, and now she had to go back to teaching.

Seeing this, although Li Yange felt that it was a pity to have a pipa player like her senior sister, she couldn't delay her normal work.

Fortunately, the rest of the people agreed to come down, but Li Yange needed to talk to the orchestra they were in, after all, the big guys all have jobs now.

Now coming to the United States is acting on orders, but the next concert is not.

Li Yange responded to this point, and he had already thought about how to send a telegram back to China tomorrow to talk to Director Tang and Teacher Du about this matter.

……

……

At this time, it was still eleven o'clock in the evening in the United States, and it was already eleven o'clock in the afternoon in the distant homeland.

The Xinhua News Agency has already sent the news of Li Yange's successful performance at the Lincoln Center for the Arts in the United States back to China overnight.

It was noon at this time, and after receiving the fax information, the Xinhua News Agency also immediately reported it.

In the evening, Li Yange once again showed his face on the news broadcast.

"Yesterday, at 6:15 p.m. on September 6, U.S. time, China's outstanding young composer Li Yange led the "Dunhuang Orchestra" to hold a grand solo concert with the Lincoln Center for the Arts in New York.

Li Yange served as the conductor of the concert, and Chinese young performer Wu Man, pipa player He Shufeng, and famous Chinese cellist Yo-Yo Ma performed passionately.

The 3,000-seat Aveley Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center, the famous concert hall, was packed to the brim.

The concert kicked off with "Memories of the Forbidden City" composed by Li Yange, followed by "The Dream of the Hexi Corridor", "Dunhuang", "A Thousand Years of Prayer" and "The Dawn of Heroes", as well as traditional Chinese folk music such as "Three Alleys of Plum Blossoms" and "Spring River Flower and Moonlight Night", all of which were highly praised by the American people......

Hearing the description of Li Yange in the news broadcast, Mr. Du, Director Tang and others secretly smacked their tongues, good guys, this is on the news broadcast again?

Xue Ke, Dou Dawei and other friends are also envious, this is CCTV's news broadcast, this year, Li Yange has been on it three times!

Li Yange's parents, grandparents, were even more excited, although they knew that Li Yange was going to perform in the United States, they didn't expect to see him on TV news.

If the happiest person, in addition to Li Yange's family, there is another person who is particularly happy, and that is Liang Leshu!

She has already negotiated with Polygram about the distribution rights of Li Yange's second album "Dunhuang" in the mainland, and is currently waiting for the album to be produced by the book, and after sending the sample, she can let the factory work overtime to produce it.

Now that Li Yange has been on the news network again, his fame has increased again, and the increase in sales of the next album is absolutely obvious.
