Fu Tiao had actually contacted Brotz for a long time, and had already given him information about his plane before he was about to come to Warsaw.

Originally, Fu Tiao just hoped that Broz could help him find a suitable house to live in, but he didn't expect that Broz drove directly to pick him up.

Seeing that Fu Tiao had not yet gotten into the car, Brods immediately waved his hand vigorously and said anxiously to Fu Tiao in his previous English.

"Get in the car, hurry, this place will start to be fined in a few minutes, unless I park in the underground garage below."

Fu Tiao didn't think much about it, opened the car door and sat down, and Broz immediately kicked the accelerator and drove towards the city with Fu Tiao.

He breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that he had left the airport area.

"Whew, it's okay, there's still a little time...... I came to the airport today after the traffic jam, I thought that there might be no way to meet you today, but I didn't expect that when I arrived at the airport in the car, you were just about to leave, maybe this is luck? ”

"Luck? Truly. Fu Tiao immediately smiled and nodded, "I also met people from NHK at the gate of the airport, and they stopped me at that place to ask about the competition. ”

"Oh? The thing about the game? What was asked? ”

"It's nothing, it's just simple questions, like why I participated in the Chopin International Piano Competition, and whether I have made some preparations for this competition."

"Haha, this is indeed a lot like Dongying NHK, some of the questions they will ask over there, but I think it may be because your speech is not particularly good, otherwise they will definitely ask some strange questions that are in line with Dongying's aesthetics, what is it called?"

Brodz lifted a hand on the steering wheel, rubbed his head, and after thinking for a long time, he could barely pronounce a Japanese word that looked like Polish, and then explained.

"It seems to be something, what fantasy often happens in the second grade of junior high school, a word that is very in line with the characteristics of Dongying's program, I followed my Chinese teacher after I left, watching Huaguo's journalism."

Saying that, Brotz suddenly remembered something, and the whole person became extremely energetic, especially excited to use the strange Chinese language.

"Hello, my name is Broz, I'm from Warsaw, Poland, my hobbies are classical music and eating, thank you, xiaolongbao, goodbye...... How's that? My Chinese seems to be barely passing, right? ”

"Of course!" Fu Tiao nodded, although he didn't know why there was a small longbao between thank you and goodbye, but at least he could barely understand what he was saying.

Fu Tiao raised his hand and encouraged in Polish: "To jest idealne"

"Haha, your Polish is also very good."

Brodz immediately planned to pat Fu Tiao's shoulder with his hand, and the car twisted and twisted in an instant, so frightened that he sat back in the driver's seat and continued to look at the road in front of him.

"Anyway, I've already done what you asked me to help arrange."

"Housing?" Fu Tiao looked at Brotz and asked curiously, "How is the housing?" Have there been results already? ”

"Of course there are results!" Brotz nodded, and while looking at the road conditions, he put his hand into the passenger body in front of Fu Tuo, opened the body, and pointed to a document on it.

"Look at that place, I found you a total of 10 places to live, all of which are rented for short-term purposes according to your requirements, and I have also seen the specific locations of these addresses, and I feel that it is not bad, so I will send you these 10 addresses."

After that, he seemed to be a little afraid that Fu Tiao wouldn't be able to read the documents, so he immediately waved his hand and pointed to the bottom of the documents.

"You flip through the bottom of the documents, I asked my Chinese teacher to help me translate these documents, and there is also an English version, you can see which one is convenient to see, I won't give you anything more, I still have to drive with peace of mind, and if you invite me to have a drink when you turn around, you will let your labor expenses be."

"Okay, thank you."

Fu Tiao nodded, picked up the documents, looked at the contents on them, and nodded silently.

Sure enough, as Brods said, the houses he found for himself were almost all the houses he had seriously looked at.

In addition to the most basic contract, there are also photos of the house, along with the price of the house, as well as some notes.

The rent is not particularly expensive, especially when Fu Tiao only needs to rent for one month, the rent that Brotz gave himself before, and the owner of the bar gave him, and the rent given to him in the band, there is absolutely no problem with renting for one month.

A simple rent can be done for only a few thousand zlotys.

The closest one to the Chopin Hall in Warsaw, about 500 meters away, is located on the third floor.

The rent of the house is not a particularly big problem, the biggest problem...... It's piano practice.

Brods wrote a note about this place, and he also asked about the nearby places where they could rent a piano, and asked about the price of renting a piano.

If you want to rent a piano that can be used in the house and plays at the level of performance, then at least a few thousand zlotys will be required for a month.

For example, in the case of Steinway, if it is purely rented, and it is still a short-term rental, then the price is close to zlotys.

For longer periods of time, if you rent for more than a year, the price may be slightly cheaper.

Of course, this rent can be included in the price of the piano.

That is to say, he sells you a piano for 1 million, you rent this piano for 100,000 a year, you rent it for 10 years, and this piano can be taken home directly.

Or you rent it for a year and then buy it home for 900,000 yuan.

Broz also wrote the price of moving the piano in those rented places, and the price of renting the piano plus moving it is directly more than 15,000 a month.

Combined with the rent in these places, the price may directly exceed 20,000 yuan a month.

This money must be spent, unless you are a contestant and go to one of those street piano shops to rent a piano, otherwise this money is absolutely indispensable.

Of course, there are still some people who don't have to spend that money.

For example...... If you're able to get an Steinway & Sons Artist, Yamaha Artist, Fazioli Artist, etc., you can ask your local retailer for free shipping and tuning.

This can directly reduce the price by several hundred zlotys.

It's a pity that the current artist benefits are a bit less, if it is a former brand artist, the local retailer will provide you with a piano directly.

Brotz seemed to see Fu Tiaozheng focus his attention on the price, and couldn't help but smile and raised an eyebrow.

"What's wrong? Think it's expensive? This is the most affordable price I've found with a few of my old friends, if it could be cheaper...... You can only rent an upright piano similar to my home, but your main race is different from the qualifiers, so if you use a vertical piano, it will affect your performance, right? ”

"It's a little bit, but it's either expensive or ...... It's just that the shock of your work is a little too detailed, your work is ...... More than just one drink. ”

"Haha, don't worry, take your time, we will arrive in the city for a while, these times are enough for you to see for a long time."

"Hmmm......"

Brodz returned his attention to the road while Fu continued to look at the house that Brodz had chosen.

Brodz's attention to these rentals was not limited to the piano, and the houses he chose for Fu Tiao included almost every kind.

For example, the Nordic cold wind, the traditional European style, the Chinese style and so on.

If Fu Tiao doesn't like the bells and whistles, he can also choose something simpler and more simple, such as a small studio, as a place for him to live.

Fu Tiao's attention was immediately on the studio.

The studio is located near a relatively new business district, and the house is also newly built, about 800 meters from the Chopin Hall in Warsaw on the map, but Brodz marked a note on the side.

In fact, the distance is about 1.4 kilometers, which means that it takes less than 20 minutes to walk normally.

Because of this, the studio is a little more expensive than a normal rental house, and the water and electricity used are slightly more expensive.

It may not seem like the studio's merits are particularly obvious, but Mr. Brodz wrote a note on the side.

This place...... You can practice late into the night without anyone disturbing you.

In Europe, many of the dwellings are actually old houses, some of which date back to before World War II and were rebuilt because of the heating renovations.

As a result, houses in many places are the coexistence of the old and the new, especially in these places where economic reforms have been carried out.

Of course, in some wealthy places such as Munich, even the newly built houses are built in the same style as the old ones because of local customs, so that the whole city maintains a uniform style.

If you don't have money, it's easy to create a poor, sexy city like Berlin.

Or the pure modern city of Frankfurt.

These old houses have a common problem, that is, the sound insulation is poor, and it is ridiculously poor.

It's a dozen centimeters thick, but it doesn't seem to be a fart.

In addition, the piano room closes at eight or nine o'clock in the evening.

Therefore, if you want to practice until the evening, you can either buy your own villa and live in the suburbs, or you can live in one of these studios.

This studio is surrounded by a number of other studios.

This kind of studio is actually very common in Europe, and it has a little bit of a small company feel to it, but the number of people is smaller, and only two or three people can work in it.

To put it in a more familiar way, this kind of studio is actually more like a garage in the beautiful country.

It's the garage where Apple was born.

This kind of almost newly built pure industrial and commercial building, which is only used as a studio and some shops, is basically no one in it at night.

Not only that, but in order to prevent disturbances between studios, the place has also been specially equipped with soundproof panels.

In this case, you can basically practice as much as you want, and basically no one will come to disturb you.

Fu Tiao looked at this house and suddenly felt a little moved, especially compared to the decoration of other houses.

This house is a square rectangle, about forty or fifty square meters, with a partition in the middle.

Divide a place to sleep and rest.

On the side of the sleeping rest, there are two hidden doors with a large bathtub shower and toilet.

On the other side of the partition, there is a desk on that side.

It's very ordinary and simple, as long as the partition is also hidden, then this place is like the boss's office.

Even Fu Diao saw that this partition was also equipped with a large refrigerator with full built-in.

Fu Diao's mind suddenly built the specific situation of this room, and soon his eyes couldn't help but light up.

Just throw that table aside and find a random place to put it, and the partition will be in the place where a medium-sized piano can be placed.

Although it is impossible to put a nine-foot piano for a concert, a seven-foot piano is still no problem.

Moreover......

It seems that the view from this place is also nice?

Fu Diao couldn't help but feel itchy when he looked at this place, but the price on the side made his heart gradually calm down.

This room plus piano is rented for a month...... It's almost 40,000 soft girl coins.

This price.

Fu Tiaogang wanted to pick up the document in his hand and hand it to Brotz, but seeing that Brotz was driving, he could only put his hand down again.

Brods quickly noticed Fu Tuo's movements and asked.

"You've found where you're going?"

"Well, a studio, the one in the city center."

"Aha, that, that, I actually think it will be very popular with young people like you, and sure enough, you chose this one."

With that, Brods raised his hand and pointed ahead and said to Fu Tuo.

"No, there are still about dozens of kilometers to enter the city, since you like it, then let's go directly to that place later, there is still some time, they haven't gotten off work yet, maybe they can set the house before they get off work."

With that, he kicked the accelerator and accelerated towards the rental location.

Fu Tiao had already chosen the room he wanted, so he lay down on a chair and looked out the window.

The whole of Warsaw is still foggy, everything is not so clear, and the governance of the government, which Brotz has been scolding in the car for so long, still does not seem to be doing its job.

However, the city's Chopin flavor is stronger than it was half a year ago.

Half a year was just a rehearsal for the qualifiers, and none of the players showed the level they should have.

But when it came to the first round, it was the main competition of the Chopin International Piano Competition.

At this point, all the contestants will decide the winner in this place.

In the end, he became the world's No. 1 Chopin pianist under the age of 30 and became famous all over the world.

Or become a loser and walk away.

No one knows.

Even if he was the strongest, he wasn't sure if he would be able to finish first.

This is the charm of the Chopin International Piano Competition.

When everyone's skills have almost reached the peak of the young people, the difference between them will be the most basic, the sensitivity to music.

As the vehicle gets closer to the center of the city, the Chopin atmosphere of the place intensifies.

What used to be just an ordinary platform with information about the Chopin International Piano Competition has evolved from the platform to posters everywhere.

On the side of the road, on the constantly rotating billboards, on the notice boards of the city's friendships, the public bicycles and skateboards, and even the facades of the buildings, are already plastered with information about the Chopin International Piano Competition.

The quinquennial tournament, the focus of the whole world, the race that everyone is looking forward to.

It is already Chopin's city, just like Mozart's Salzburg.

Fu Tiao looked at the people outside the car, with a hint of anticipation.

Before I came, I heard that the world's top pianists were likely to come to the Chopin International Piano Competition to watch.

Although Fu Tiao has already met Argerich, he is still very much looking forward to this kind of chance encounter on the road.

When Brotz saw Fu Tuo's expression, he couldn't help but smile and didn't say anything.

Although it is advertised every year, Warsaw, where the Chopin International Piano Competition is the real capital of music, you are likely to meet several pianists along the way.

But actually...... There aren't many people who can actually meet them.

Those pianists don't have to meet you on the road when they have nothing to do, and they have their own things to do.

You are busy with your work during the day, and the pianists are busy practicing during the day.

Music is their job, and it's not for anyone to hang out and show other people without work.

There were indeed some people who met those top bosses before, but these are a few, and it can only be said that it was a coincidence.

After all, if it really happens, the kind of playing on the piano on the street can attract a lot of people to come and listen, and it just happens to attract that kind of top boss, isn't it more coincidental than this kind of roadside encounter?

Brotz didn't say much, and Fu Tiao didn't look out the window with any great expectations.

Therefore, he just paid attention to the following surrounding scenes, and did not think too much about it.

Soon, the two of them came to the house that Fu Tiao had taken care of before, and the staff in charge of the house did not leave, and everyone quickly entered the house to check everything in the house.

The environment is clean and smellless, and it is clear that it has been cleaned.

The environment in the house is also the same as what Fu Tiao saw before, it is a square space, with office areas, rest areas and toilets and bathhouses all placed in their own places.

In the rest area, there is a slight difference from what Fu Tiao saw before.

They don't know why they have arranged sofas and space chairs in it, so that people can rest more thoroughly.

As for the rest, not much has changed.

"Hello, do you have any other comments? If there is any opinion, we happen to be here now, and we can negotiate. ”

"Don't be in a hurry......"

Fu Tiao waved his hand at the staff and walked to the two floor-to-ceiling windows.

This newly built commercial street is not high, but from the location of the window of this room, you can fully see most of the content of the whole city.

There are very few high-rise buildings in Europe, and many of them still maintain the tradition that houses should not exceed the height of churches.

The highest point of a city must be the city church.

Although not strictly observed in Warsaw, the vast majority of buildings are still of the kind that are several storeys high.

At this moment, although the room under Fu Tiao's feet is only about six floors, it is still much higher than the other rooms.

A glance at the small buildings.

Looking out from his vantage point, the sporadic lights fill the city, adding a touch of elegance to the city.

Seeing this, Fu Tiao no longer hesitated, and nodded slightly to the person behind him.

"No comment, so be it."

"Okay! Please sign this place, but please remember that if you want to continue the rental next month, please send us an email ten days in advance, otherwise you will not be able to renew the lease. ”

After Fu signed his name, the man turned and left.

Brotz followed Fu Diao around the room, and when he was about to leave, Fu Diao suddenly said to him.

"Mr. Brotz, let's go, as you said before, thank you for the house you found me, I invite you to ...... Have a drink? ”
