On the stage, the song "Liang Zhu" lingers.

As the opponent of the pianist Zhou Mingqiao, after listening to "Liang Zhu", he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The work rehearsed by Fang Xing and the Dongyin First Symphony Orchestra is no worse than that of Chen Wenhan's troupe in terms of performance lineup and quality of music.

Coupled with the violin concerto "Liang Zhu", it perfectly integrates national culture and symphony.

Zhou Mingqiao could have imagined that if he was the director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, he would also choose "Liang Zhu".

The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is a window to show the world the 5,000-year-old splendid civilization of China, of course, "Liang Zhu", a work based on Chinese folklore and the tune of Yue Opera.

What's more, Dongyin sent more than 20 professors out of the town, and directly gave the Chen family a second to the symphony orchestra that was grouped by the Chen family.

These more than 20 professors are all master performers in their respective fields.

Even if the director team of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games has a long bag in their minds, they will choose "Liang Zhu" with their eyes closed.

As for the chances of both orchestras being selected, it is very slim.

Every performance at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is a matter of excellence, and only the best works of the same type will be selected.

In the case of both symphonies, it is unlikely that both will be selected.

Zhou Mingqiao sighed in his heart.

Originally, he thought that he would have a chance to appear on the stage of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games this time.

In fact.

This time the Chen family looked for him, and his asking price was not high, after all, being able to participate in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games was also an opportunity for him to increase his honor.

It's just that, now it seems that there is a high probability that there is no chance.

Zhou Mingqiao glanced sideways at Chen Wenhan, shook his head and smiled.

He was very sure that Chen Wenhan had provoked a near-invincible opponent.

In the past two years, Zhou Mingqiao has heard Fang Xing's name countless times in the international news, and these news have become more and more shocking each time.

As a pianist, he knows too well how strong Fang Xing's strength is.

And this crushing sense of oppression is getting stronger and stronger.

Last year, on the stage of "Singing", he just felt that Fang Xing was very strong.

Now, on the stage of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, the song "Liang Zhu" made him change his mind, this person is not only strong, but terrifyingly strong.

Zhou Mingqiao basically knew the result in his heart, and this round of performance should be eliminated.

However, he was not too sad, after all, he was not the core of the team this time.

……

Chen Wenhan next to him is the one who is most eager to appear on the stage of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

In order to push him onto the stage of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, the Chen family threw a lot of money.

Chen Wenhan was also very anxious in his heart, because he didn't want to be crushed by Lu Xiang'er anymore.

Since last year's Paganini Competition, he has been living in the shadow of Lu Xianger, and the shadow area is getting bigger and bigger.

Last month, he kicked Lu Xianger out of the competition in the group, and finally won back his breath.

But not long after he was proud, Lu Xiang'er appeared again and became his competitor.

Chen Wenhan looked at the group of old professors on the stage, and he was very jealous, which also made him feel a little uneasy.

He turned his head to look at Zhou Mingqiao, pointed to the symphony orchestra on the stage and asked, "Does Mr. Zhou think they can make the cut?" ”

Zhou Mingqiao glanced at him and was silent for a few seconds before replying, "It should be promoted." ”

"What about us?" Chen Wenhan asked.

Zhou Mingqiao smiled awkwardly and said, "It's hard to say this." However, if I were you, the most important thing to do now is to find a relationship with the family, communicate with the director team, and let the director team give us another chance to enter the third round.

"At the same time, find a way to show more advantages in the third round of performances and win the favor of the director team, otherwise it will be difficult to say."

Chen Wenhan's face was very ugly, but he also felt that something was wrong.

So he didn't speak again, got up and left the performance venue directly, and went back to discuss with the elders in the family.

……

After the performance of "Liang Zhu", it won warm applause from the audience.

After going backstage, Shen Jilin, the chief director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, personally came over and shook hands with Professor Dongyin one by one: "Thank you for your performance, thank you." ”

After shaking hands with the professors, Shen Jilin came to Fang Xing and said with admiration on his face: "Fang Xing, there are really you, our director team and advisory group are very satisfied with your work this time, and we must rehearse well after we go back." ”

Due to the rush to participate in the exhibition, the rehearsal time was actually only more than half a month.

At this rehearsal time, it is barely possible to participate in the exhibition, but if you want to perform at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, you still need to continue rehearsals.

The other side.

The Chen family acted quickly, and after learning that Chen Wenhan's team had encountered strong competitors, they immediately found someone to communicate with the director team, hoping to enter the third round.

Because this performance is a selection program for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

Although there is competition, it is not strictly a competition in nature.

Everything is based on the guiding ideology of the country and the preferences of the director team.

Therefore, there is a high degree of flexibility in whether or not to advance to the next round.

A senior executive of Pengcheng Capital, after talking with the director of the opening ceremony, came out of the office and happened to be seen by Fang Xing when he passed the backstage of the venue.

At this time, Fang Xing was talking to Shen Jilin, the chief director of the opening ceremony.

Seeing the senior management of Pengcheng Capital walking outside, Fang Xing said casually: "Director Shen has a good relationship with Pengcheng Capital." ”

Shen Jilin glanced back at Fang Xing's gaze, and replied casually: "There are too many people in contact with the director team every day, nothing strange." ”

Fang Xing smiled and said, "I guess, this person is here to intercede with a certain symphony orchestra." ”

Shen Jilin said with a straight face: "Don't you know my style of doing things?" All for the sake of the presentation effect of the opening ceremony, it is useless to intercede. ”

After saying this, he then joked: "You won't be worried that your competitors will enter the next round and be beaten by the other party, right?" ”

Fang Xing shook his head and smiled: "I never felt that there were my competitors in the election performance. However, I don't plan to participate in the next round of performances. ”

Shen Jilin raised his eyebrows and said suspiciously: "No, your work is very good, don't give up." ”

"I don't think it's necessary to participate in the next round of performances, it's better for Director Shen to skip a grade for me directly. From now on, I will only participate in the last round of performances. Fang Xing asked.

Shen Jilin frowned: "This is not appropriate. ”

"I don't really mean it, but I can."

Fang Xing translated his words and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Director Shen, I just don't think it's necessary to participate in the later performances, because I still want to prepare other works to participate in the Olympic selection." ”

When Shen Jilin heard this, he immediately stared, he had already guessed what it meant, and asked, "You have other works that you want to participate in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games." ”

Fang Xing smiled and replied: "To be precise, it is not the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, but the theme song of the Olympic Games." If the theme song is selected, I hope that the Dongyin No. 1 Symphony Orchestra will accompany the performance at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. ”

When Shen Jilin heard this, he suddenly felt that things were a bit big.

It's about packing up for the Olympics.

Moreover, Shen Jilin had already cooperated with Fang Xing before, and the theme song of the previous Three Kingdoms historical drama was produced by Fang Xing.

He believed that Fang Xing had this strength.

Of course, there are many production teams running for the theme song of the Olympic Games, even if Fang Xing's strength is very strong, he may not be 100% selected.

Therefore, Shen Jilin said with a smile: "The theme song of the Olympic Games is still in the selection, and it is not easy to win the bid, so let's talk about it when you really win." ”

Fang Xing said with a smile: "If you want to say so, I will also cover the theme song of the opening ceremony." ”

"Hey!"

Shen Jilin shook his head and smiled: "You young man, I don't know if it's good to say that you are crazy, or if you are too confident."

"The theme song of the opening ceremony of next year's Olympic Games is indeed open to the public, if you have a good song, just vote.

"But let me say it first, the superior leaders only recognize the song and not the person, the song is not good, and it is useless for anyone to come."

Fang Xing nodded and replied, "I know, if I recognize people and don't recognize songs, then I won't waste time." ”

"That'll do. You follow the selection process and submit the song to the designated office. I'll wait to see if your song can be handed to our advisory group. "Shen Jilin doesn't plan to open a fast channel for Fang Xing, and let Fang Xing run for election according to the process.

……

Regarding the Olympic songs, Fang Xingke is too confident.

After I went back, I took out the two Olympic theme songs on Earth and the theme song of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games and threw them out.

The other side.

The Chen family used various contacts and connections to finally win the opportunity for the third round of performances.

Of course, being able to enter the third round is also because the symphony orchestra led by Chen Wenhan is very strong.

China's top symphony orchestra, plus pianist Zhou Mingqiao, and even the youngest Chen Wenhan has won an award at the Paganini Competition.

With this strength of the symphony orchestra, it is not surprising that it entered the third round.

Chen Wenhan prepared for a month and led the team to participate in the third round of performances again.

This time, he sat in the audience and watched from the beginning of the performance, wanting to see Fang Xing and Lu Xianger's performance this time.

It's just that after watching all the performances, he didn't see any trace of Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er at all.

In the entire third round of performances, there was no Fang Xing and Lu Xianger at all, let alone "Liang Zhu".

Chen Wenhan was ecstatic for a while, guessing that the director team directly eliminated "Liang Zhu".

This possibility is not impossible, with the Chen family's connections and relationship network, it is indeed possible to get rid of the opponent directly.

After Chen Wenhan watched all the performances and made sure that there was no Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er, he was very relieved and in a very good mood.

When he got home, he waited for the announcement of the final round of the show.

It's just that I waited for two days, but the notice I waited for was that I didn't advance to the last round of performances.

The Chen family was very surprised, and immediately asked someone to inquire about the news.

As a result, the answer was that the symphony orchestra that entered the final round of performances was Dongyin No. 1 Symphony Orchestra, and the selected work was "Liang Zhu".

"What's going on!?" Chen Wenhan was stunned.

When he was in the third round of performances, he obviously didn't see "Liang Zhu".

In the entire third round, the symphony orchestra led by him and Zhou Mingqiao also integrated national musical instruments, crushing the competitors in the same field with their strength.

However, after the results came out, he was stunned on the spot.

He participated in the third round of performances, but did not advance to the final round, but "Liang Zhu", which did not participate in the third round of performances, entered.

Regarding this situation, after Chen Lipeng found someone to inquire about the results, he reported to Chen Xingye:

"The situation is a bit special, "Liang Zhu" can be regarded as skipping a grade, directly skipping the third round of performances and entering the last round. There was no competition on our side, it was brushed off. ”

Chen Wenhan was suddenly furious, slapped the table and stood up, and scolded: "Why? Why didn't they have to go through the third round to make the cut? ”

Chen Lipeng's face was expressionless, and he shook his head helplessly and said, "I'm afraid this time there is no way to operate." This time, Fang Xing's work for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is not only "Liang Zhu".

Two months ago, his song "Dream Chasing Pure Heart" was selected and produced as the Olympic MV as the national team's departure song.

"It's nothing, I heard that Fang Xing has taken over the theme song of next year's Olympic Games and the theme song of the opening ceremony.

"The Office of the Olympic Committee has hired him to join the advisory board.

"Basically, the important songs of next year's Olympics have been covered by him.

"Therefore, "Liang Zhu" is basically a formality, and it is unlikely that it will not enter."

When Chen Wenhan heard this answer, the whole person was stunned: "How is it possible!" Are the idiots of the Olympic Committee crazy? All the songs have been wrapped up for Fang Xing? Did they have their brains in the shi? ”

Due to the theme song of next year's Olympic Games and the theme song of the opening ceremony, it has not yet been announced.

So Chen Lipeng only inquired about the inside news and knew that the two theme songs were covered by Fang Xing, but he didn't know what song it was, let alone heard the sample.

If you don't hear the song, you don't know if the quality of the song is high or low.

So, theoretically, I don't know if the director team is really crazy.

Chen Lipeng added in a deep voice: "That's what the news said, and the theme song has been preliminarily determined. If nothing else, there should be no change.

Moreover, judging from the news coming out of the director's office, the theme song will also be accompanied by the Dongyin symphony orchestra.

It is said that this request was made by Fang Xing.

"Originally, many people in the director team and advisory group were against this request, but after hearing the song, they all acquiesced."

After hearing this, Chen Wenhan sat back on the sofa dejectedly, his face was very gloomy: "So, isn't Lu Xiang'er going to stay at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games for a day?" ”

As soon as he thought of this, the shadow area in his heart became much larger.

The family spent so much money trying to push him on the stage of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

As a result, after throwing the money, he only entered the third round of performances.

Moreover, this third round of performances is still obtained by relying on connections.

What made him even more desperate was that the third round of the show was simply playing tricks on him.

Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er directly skipped the final round, and they didn't bother to participate in the third round of the show at all.

And he was very proud for a while, thinking that Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er had been eliminated.

It turned out that he was the clown himself.
