Chapter 55 ~ The Lonely Brave
"I respect your choice!"
Schubert listened to Mo Yan's answer, and his heart was full of regret.
After all, although the immortal bird and the white swan are not as good as the black dragon, their strength and reputation are far above the unicorn.
He recalled that more than ten years ago, when he was making a choice in front of him, he had hesitated for a while.
"Don't stay in Chen Nanfang in the future! Those scumbags, they don't deserve a coach like you. ”
At that time, Xue Rou was promoted to the second middle school, and Schubert was admitted to the world's top three brass musicians.
At that time, the unicorn began to decline after Ms. Chen Nanfang passed away and Wang Xi'an Heilong established a team. Even though Schubert had been trying to turn the tide, nothing had been done.
"Those scumbags are not worth the effort you put into them at all."
At that time, the school director first asked him to teach a few classes part-time in Heilong, but the response and response were very good.
The black dragon is completely different from the unicorn, relying on the monthly team fees of those noble children, the school board has already earned hundreds of thousands of dollars a month, not to mention the exaggerated private training commission in it.
Schubert was afraid that his beloved, who had a good former apprentice, would follow in his footsteps, and repeatedly persuaded her.
But Mo Yan has made up his mind.
"Because everyone reminds me of it, my dream ......," Mo Yan said.
"Dreams?" These two words are both strange and familiar to Schubert.
What is a dream?
Sometimes Schubert wonders, what is a dream?
Now he has far surpassed the achievements he had fantasized about when he was young.
That's all the dream?
"By the way, Master, how is the adaptation of your work that is ready to meet the master and craftsman? Is the master and craftsman satisfied? Mo Yan said.
"Are you talking about "Little Brave"?" Schubert took Mo Yan to his room, but saw that Schubert's room was very messy, with paper drafts crumpled and placed on the floor.
When Schubert was composing, he hated being disturbed the most. No one is allowed to enter casually, no matter how messy it is, he does not allow others to enter and take care of it.
Several times, the reason why he quarreled with Lin's mother was because when Lin's mother was cleaning, it was because Lin's mother was at home and cleared his drafts all over the floor.
Mother Lin didn't know about the so-called waste paper, each of which was priceless.
Once, a colleague just picked up a scrap manuscript through the crack in the door, polished it slightly into a pop song, and sold it as his own work to a well-known singer. It would be good if the work was a small fire, but I didn't expect that the song would make the singer better than half the sky.
Schubert was still on the street, and when he heard about his work, he learned that it had been stolen. Later, he had an officialdom with the man and the record company. The singer lost a lot of money in order to settle, and that little employee can hardly get along in the high-end music industry now. I heard that now, I am working as a part-time singer in an unknown bar.
But Li Moyan is an exception. Far from doing these things, she gave Schubert a lot of professional and reliable advice.
It's just that this song "Little Brave" stumped the two. Ironically, the song has long been translated into opera, animation, and film, and is famous all over the world, but the strict master craftsmen are still dissatisfied with it.
He has 100 world number one music titles and lives in a small town in Russia near the Arctic Circle. There, he had a workshop specializing in making musical instruments, and the treasure of the Chen Nanfang Silver Band, the full moon unicorn, was made by this master craftsman.
He is now in poor health and will only receive one apprentice a year. Schubert dismissed most of his work in order to prepare for the work of the "master craftsman".
"What is the problem with "Little Brave"?" Mo Yan said.
This song "Little Brave" is a very famous solo trumpet against the whole band song, playing the chief trumpet of the demon king, will take turns to challenge the chief of each part of the 8 legendary braves, according to the plot, the demon king defeated 7 braves, but lost to the last "little brave". Performers can temporarily adjust the order of the Demon King's appearance as needed.
The 8 parts of "Little Brave" correspond to 8 different levels of difficulty. The dragon warrior who symbolizes courage with the highest difficulty coefficient, the unyielding phoenix warrior, and the obsessive thunder warrior (cow)...... In the end, it represents a pure unicorn horse.
The unicorn is the least difficult, and most performers choose to do it by children, but it has the highest potential difficulty. It is precisely because the most plain phrases are often the most difficult to express, so this section is both the most difficult and the shallowest compared to the other 7 sections, and the whole song, except for the Demon King, is the section that tests the player's skills the most.
And the master craftsman said that this little brave man, the whole song needs to be played by teenagers and girls under the age of 20.
Schubert then brought in nine musicians in the national team. Many versions were recorded for him, but the master was never satisfied, either he disliked the timbre was too mature, or he disliked the musicians for not having enough throat, especially the casting of the unicorn brave, whether it was Jiang Nan or Chen Dongsheng's interpretation, the master shook his head dissatisfied.
The music itself is varied, and the effect of each performance is very different, and the master is not picky. But finding the most suitable performer and showing the most perfect and authentic "Little Brave" is the biggest knowledge.
Moreover, this master craftsman is notoriously difficult to wait.
However, to get his affirmation and teaching, even many top musicians dream of something, not to mention that this time, he is holding the banner of looking for a successor, to call on the music industry, the world's top three musicians to respond.
If Schubert hadn't stepped up his efforts to represent the brass scene, his rival, world No. 2 LaNewman, would have won the spot.
Seeing Schubert, who was so distressed, but Mo Yan, who had no way to start, smiled at this moment.
"No wonder, you once told me that Ye Siren is very similar to you."
"What?"
"I don't have any talent, but I want to be alone and challenge the whole world!"
Schubert did not deny it.
"Don't laugh, in ten years, it's your turn to challenge! If I am chosen by the master this time, ten years from now, don't think that I will release water to you. Schubert laughed.
The next decade?
Mo Yan recalled that ten years ago, when he was still ignorant, he became attached to music because of a unicorn.
Now, ten years later, she has turned around, as if she is back to square one.
She felt as if she had already formed an indissoluble bond with this king of time and space.

Late at night, Ye Siren made his way through the crowd and pushed a trolley full of garbage into the garbage station.
The environment here is dirty and messy, rats and cockroaches are scurrying around, and the air smells of decay.
"I'm sorry, stationmaster, my dad has back pain, so I'll push this lay! Siren said.
"No problem, what a good boy! As he spoke, the stationmaster took out an envelope and gave it to Siren: "This is the money from the workers selling scrap, remember to give it to your father!" The stationmaster nagged.
Siren's father, Ye Jingtian, was a very famous ship king more than half a year ago, operating an entrepot business. However, under the blow of several financial storms in a row, he joined the great changes in his family, and he had to sell most of his life's efforts to pay off debts and lay off employees.
Now, just reduced to a cleaner. Now Si Yan's family lives in an old tenement building near the red light district in Mong Kok.
Each of these tenement buildings is equally old, except for a few mansions with a completely different style. It is said that Li Ka-shing has always wanted to put away the entire district and rebuild it, so many people, in order to cheat the migration fee, rented a small apartment in this community. The same is true for the Siren family.
But unexpectedly, this price has been negotiated for more than ten years, and has not been negotiated, Li Ka-shing only received a few pieces of land, plus the land price in Mong Kok has become more and more expensive in recent years, even the richest man in Hong Kong feels weak.
At night, Mong Kok under this patch of old and new houses is a bustling scene.
After the training of the silver band, Si Yan rushed to Mong Kok non-stop, and when he heard that his father had injured his waist today, he picked up his work.
While working, he chatted with his compatriots in the band in the group cadres, and although his life was hard, he was still very satisfied.
Suddenly, he receives a message from his part-time boss asking him to help immediately. He didn't get enough rest, and rushed there again.
The place where Ye Siren works is a bar and western restaurant called "Eros", located in the center of Mong Kok, near the subway station, parking lot, and there are many customers.
In front of the door is the open-air seating in the smoking area, and there are 3 flying label machines placed next to the floor-to-ceiling glass on the left side of the store.
The bar is dimly lit, the air is slightly smoky, and handsome singers, under the spotlights of the small stage, sing nostalgic English songs from the 60s and 70s.
The proprietress of Sister Qing used to mix in the road when she lived in Hong Kong in her early years. After free, because of sympathy for those who have criminal records or are on bail, he opened this bar to help those who want to change their ways.
In the bar, there are not many colleagues who wear shackles like Siren, but his collar is unique and very eye-catching.
As soon as he arrived, the proprietress covered her nose and said suspiciously, "You went to your father's place again?" "
"Hmm...... I'm sorry! I immediately changed my clothes and went to the floor. "
"Not yet! "
After that, Sister Qing gave him an obscure delivery note, and then said simple and rough English to a Filipino delivery person: "You tell he, he tell you!" Then he patted Siren on the shoulder.
Siren looked at the bill of goods, instantly understood it, and answered the same question in English with the delivery person. And the speed of ordering is faster than anyone else.
Sister Qing looked at Siren curiously.
It turned out that when he counted the goods, such as 10 pieces of goods, he always counted 8 pieces, and if there were still goods under his eyes, he didn't count.
Moreover, Sister Qing saw that the quantity of the goods he ordered was not accurate, so she asked, "Who taught you to order goods like this?" "
"My dad! "
"What if it's a little less......"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Siren vouched: "There will only be more, not less." "
Sister Qing didn't believe it, so she found someone to repeat it, and it turned out to be true. was about to return Duoduo, but Siren stopped her.
"No, you don't! No! This boss will order more every time, he doesn't care anyway, I also order it in front of his buddy, and the responsibility is not ours. Siren frowned and said, Sister Qing understood in an instant.
That's amazing!
Where am I looking for a part-time job who knows the law, Russian and German, and is so smart!
