Fu Tiao actually often hears Lang Liangyue's name, whether it is at home or abroad.

After all, as long as it comes to the piano, Lang Liangyue is an unavoidable existence in Huaguo.

There may be many people who think that Li Diyun can be compared to Lang Liangyue, but in fact, Lang Liangyue's status abroad is much higher than Li Diyun.

Leaving aside the fact that he studied with Graffman and was Graffman's most satisfying student, just by discussing his appearances at major music festivals around the world, you can see very clearly.

Lang Liangyue is really very popular.

To say a very counter-intuitive thing, Lang Liangyue's popularity is not because of his exaggerated movements in music performances, which are not particularly popular abroad.

People in many places criticize him for his actions.

The reason why he can really become popular is actually in the expression of his music.

If you look at Lang Liangyue's early performances, that is, Lang Liangyue's performances before they became completely popular, Lang Liangyue's performance is actually not as exaggerated as it is now, but he is a very peaceful player on the stage.

And he is most famous, that is, the performance of a music festival instead of the big guy, what everyone praises is definitely not the shock of his movements, but his musicality.

In fact, he is the same as Fu Tune, and he is also a very musical player.

It's just that he is different from Fu Tune in that his musicality is too explosive and too aggressive.

As a result, when he plays music, he often looks for works that fit him, rather than letting him go with them.

Even if he had problems later and then performed the Gothenburg Variations after his comeback, his personal characteristics were too strong, so that people knew that this was played by Lang Liangyue and not by someone else.

He's like the sun, just shining over there, and there's no way you can cover it out and change its form.

He will do everything that should be done in the music, and no matter what detail you take, you may not be able to find the weak point.

But the ego in his music is so strong that you can't see the details of the music.

All you can see is his presence.

This is why if Lang Liangyue is allowed to participate in the Chopin International Piano Competition, he will almost 100% likely enter the second or even the third round.

But if he is allowed to enter the finals, he will not be able to reach the finals at all unless he is too famous and those top masters are not easy to eliminate because of his fame.

This is also the main reason why Lang Liangyue often tries many different works, but only himself exists in his music, even if the music library is obviously large, but it still seems a little narrow.

Fu tune is different.

Although he and Lang Liangyue both belong to that group of people with a particularly strong personal style, everyone can basically think of the feeling of the sea when they hear Fu Tune's performance.

But Fu Tune's sea is not a hard, tough existence.

His sea is actually more like a kind of fluid, capable of simulating various states.

Water is impermanent.

Perhaps in terms of personal style, the toughness of Fu Tuo's style does not have any advantage over Lang Liangyue.

But in terms of stylistic fusion of repertoire, as long as Fu Tiao wants, he can integrate a variety of styles, not just Chopin.

This is where Fu Tune's advantage lies.

His repertoire can be wider than everyone else, and at the same time, he can maintain self-expression, not simply like Cho Sung-jin, who tried his best to integrate himself with musicians, and he could only integrate a few people in his life.

The car drove very smoothly and it didn't take long for the car to stop near Berlin's Schönefeld Airport.

The agent walked towards the airport with Fu Diao, and he did not take Fu Diao and the others to wait in the airport's pick-up hall, but went to another place, the VIP special channel.

After handing in his identification at the special passage, he took Fu Tiao into the airport through this passage and came to a lounge.

In this break room, Fu Tiao saw people he had heard the name many times, but never seen once.

Lang Liangyue.

Lang Liangyue is not short, about 1781.8 meters.

He is not like the big fat man like everyone legends, in fact, he is a slightly stout Northeast man.

You can say that he looks more honest and looks like the audience is very popular, but he definitely doesn't have anything to do with the legendary fat, and he looks like he is more than 70 or 80kg.

It's just that his face looks a little rounder, which also makes many people think that he is a fat man.

When Lang Liangyue saw Fu Diao's agent and Fu Tiao, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and she immediately got up from the sofa, walked towards the two of them with her hands outstretched, and laughed.

"Wow! Constan! Fu tune! Long time no see! I didn't expect you two to come here to pick me up! ”

Lang Liangyue first hugged Fu Tune's agent Constance, then looked at Fu Tune and winked, and said with a smile in Chinese.

"Constance is an old friend of mine, I basically came to him for help in my previous performances in Europe, and he can definitely be regarded as a Hua Guotong, but he can't speak Chinese."

Lang Liangyue patted Constan's back, and after greeting him with a smile, he happily walked in front of Fu Diao, stretched out his hand and smiled.

"Fu Tune, the first time we met, it was not easy, obviously we are both Chinese, but I didn't expect that we had never met, it's really a pity, I've heard your previous Chopin works, seriously, it's really that! That's it! ”

He gave a thumbs up and affirmed Fu Tuo.

"The old nose is awesome!"

"Uh...... Thanks a lot? ”

Fu Tiao originally thought that Lang Liangyue might be a very artistic person, but he didn't expect him to be so down-to-earth.

In his mouth, he was fluent in Northeast dialect, and he couldn't feel that Lang Liangyue was an internationally famous piano boss, but felt like a big brother chatting with you on the Northeast Street.

Lang Liangyue didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what she had just said, she just smiled happily.

"Anyway, do you know where I heard your name? I'm telling you, there's no way you'd have guessed, because I've never said anything about it. ”

"Eh, I don't know ......" Fu Tiao was hooked by Lang Liangyue, and he was a little dazed for a while, but he just shook his head and asked curiously: "Where did you know?" Chopin International Piano Competition? ”

"Chopin International Piano Competition? Hahaha, I guessed it! I knew you would definitely say the Chopin International Piano Competition, but pinch...... Wrong! ”

Lang Liangyue smiled, raised a finger and shook it, and grinned at Fu Xuan.

"It's a bit of a bad thing to say, but I haven't been paying attention to these competitions for a long time, and when you get busy, you won't pay much attention to them, after all, we have all kinds of music festivals every day, concerts to attend, and other times to practice, where do you have so much time to pay attention to these competitions?

In addition, I didn't come out of the competition, and I was also not a judge of the competition, so seriously, I really haven't paid attention to the competition for a long time, and the only time I paid attention to it before was probably Li Diyun's success in winning the first Chopin International Piano Competition, right? I never paid attention to it since. ”

Speaking of this place, he put his arm around Fu Diao's shoulder again and whispered.

"Actually, the first time I paid attention to you was on PiliPili!"

“PiliPili？”

Fu Tiao couldn't help but feel a little dazed when he heard this name.

He was too unfamiliar with the name to understand what it meant.

"What's that?"

"Huh? Are you Chinese? You're so young, why don't you even know about PiliPili? It's a very interesting two-thorn newt website, huh? ”

Lang Liangyue looked at Fu Diao and was obviously a little shocked.

"I'm not the only one, right? I also specially registered an account for PiliPili, and I often watch the above videos, after all, ......"

Speaking of which, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

"I'm a little embarrassed to say, but after all, there are a lot of comments about me on it, and I quite like to read their comments."

"Forehead ......"

Fu Diao felt that his impression of Lang Liangyue had collapsed a little.

He originally felt that Lang Liangyue should be a very artistic person, but when they met, they found that they were very down-to-earth.

originally thought that it was just down-to-earth, but I didn't expect that Lang Liangyue actually liked to watch the comments under her video, and searched for herself with high intensity.

Fu Tiao didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only scratch his head in embarrassment.

Lang Liangyue didn't feel anything, he just continued.

"Wow, let me tell you, I was searching for myself at the time, and suddenly I found that video of yours, and many people were comparing me to you, and then I watched it, seriously, your level of strength is really very good, and your jazz adaptation of music is also very strong! The first time I saw you, I thought you were amazing, you played really well! ”

"Lang Liangyue!"

Before Fu could speak, a Chinese voice with a little foreign accent came from Lang Liangyue's side, and she spoke softly and gently.

"Lang Liangyue, everything has been arranged, you can go now, this is your clothes, do you want to wear them now?"

"Gina? Let's put the clothes on your side first, don't worry, thank you very much. ”

"It's okay, I'm glad I could help you."

A graceful girl walked out of the back of the room, holding a suit in her hand, looking at Lang Liangyue with a smile, and then looked at Fu Diao beside Lang Liangyue, couldn't help but smile and nodded, and stretched out her hand.

"Hello, my name is Gina, Gina Alice, a German."

"Fu tune, a native of China." Fu Tiao looked at her, shook hands with her, nodded thoughtfully, and couldn't help but be curious: "But you don't look like a German." ”

"Because my mother is South Korean, I'm of mixed Korean and German descent."

Gina was very down-to-earth and generous, and smiled directly.

"I was born in Wiesbaden, Germany, the capital of Hesse, and then studied at the master class in Frankfurt and graduated from the Hamburg Conservatory."

"How? Gina is amazing, right? Although she is certainly not as good as you talented pianists, her strength is not weak! Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken her all over the world. ”

Lang Liangyue hooked Fu and said with a smile, as if she wanted to prove her vision.

But I don't know why.,The tone seems to be a little unpleasant.,A little anxious.。

Fu Tiao didn't notice this, he just nodded and said the same to Gina.

"I studied at the Berlin University of the Arts, where I studied with Klaus Hellerwig, do you know me?"

"Well, I know, and I've also taken classes with Professor Klaus Hellerwig, who is also one of my mentors."

Gina smiled and nodded at Fu Diao, then looked at Lang Liangyue and said softly.

"Lang Liangyue, the car is ready at the door and can leave at any time, but it is better if it can be faster, because after we rest in Berlin, we still need to go to North Rhine-Westphalia, which is not close, more than 600 kilometers."

"Okay, okay, I know, don't be in a hurry, it's really not okay, it's not impossible for us to fly over, the main purpose of my coming to Berlin is not to take the car to Essen, but to meet some of my old friends."

After that, Lang Liangyue patted Fu Diao's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Fu Tune, are you coming? I'm going to meet Sir Simon and some of the other masters who are still in Berlin, I haven't seen each other in a long time, and I'm going to come back and ask about the music schedule for the next season. ”

"I'll forget about this, it's not easy for me to participate in your concert arrangement."

"Hey, what's this called, what's so good about it, it's just a simple meeting and chatting, there's no big problem."

Lang Liangyue saw that Fu was very intended, so he didn't continue to say anything, but spoke.

"Forget it, if you don't want to go, then don't go, anyway, I heard from Constance, it seems that you are also going to the Ruhr Festival, right?"

"Well, yes, I think it's a concert in July, and the specific repertoire hasn't been given to the organizing committee yet, but it should be some works by Brahms."

"Brahms is very good, but I think it's better for you to send the work to the organizing committee as soon as possible, because this is a music festival, not a Brahms piano competition, so if the works in the festival can not be repeated, I still hope that it is better not to repeat them as much as possible."

After that, Lang Liangyue patted Fu Diao's shoulder and grinned.

"Fu tune! I'm optimistic about you, keep up the good work, it's really not easy for you to do this, to be honest, it's really a minority of the few who can be invited to the Ruhr Festival at such a young age, and I feel like you may be the youngest pianist except for those elementary school students. ”

"Elementary school students?"

"Well, the tradition of the Ruhr Piano Festival is to invite local elementary and junior high school students in the Ruhr area to participate in the performance, and the main thing is to participate, so you should be the youngest performer besides primary school students! Come on! ”

Lang Liangyue said with a happy smile.

But after only laughing twice, Gina walked in again with a helpless face, and said in that still gentle tone.

"Lang, time may be running out, we should go."

"Oh oh oh, okay, no problem, I'll go now!"

After that, Lang Liangyue picked up the civilian clothes that were put aside, put them in his hand casually, and said to Fu.

"Fu tune, come on, try to become the most awesome performer as soon as possible, I'll go first, I should go to the Ruhr area after meeting those big guys today, if you have time, you can come to the Ruhr area to listen to our performance, this year's Ruhr piano festival will be very interesting."

Lang Liangyue walked to the porthole of the lounge, looked out the window, and smiled confidently.

"I've heard that Arkady Volodos has been preparing for a long time on the first day, and I'm going to listen to him play, and I've heard a lot of people mentioning Arcady recently, so I think it's going to be fun."

And then there'...... Kissin. ”

When talking about Kissin, Lang Liangyue's expression didn't change at all, as if she didn't take Kisin to heart at all, so she smiled so easily.

"Kissin's performance is also very good, I really recommend you to listen to Kissin's performance, he is also a kind of technical pianist, it is said that he was praised by the conductor god Alayan as the greatest piano genius in the second half of the twentieth century, I have also heard his performance, it is really powerful, worthy of the top players of the Russian music school."

"What about you? Aren't you also called a piano genius by many people? ”

Fu Diao walked to Lang Liangyue's side, looked at the scenery outside the window with him, and couldn't help asking.

Lang Liangyue was a little silent, then raised her head again, looked out the window and continued to smile.

"Of course, I'm also a piano genius, he's just admired by Karajan, but I'm different, I'm the reincarnation of Horowitz, the king of the piano! I am the king of the piano of this century! ”

"As for genius? I didn't need that name for a long time. ”

Fu Tiao looked at Lang Liangyue beside him and found that Lang Liangyue's expression was very calm, without the slightest feeling that he was talking big, but he thought it was true.

He really felt that he was the reincarnation of Horowitz, and he really felt that he was the king of the piano.

Lang Liangyue also turned her head to look at Fu Diao at this time, and the smile on her face did not have any restraint at all.

It's like a scorching sun, radiating his light all the time.

At this time, Fu Tiao suddenly understood why Lang Liangyue was often said to be adapting to the tunes, not adapting to the works.

Because Lang Liangyue's personal style is really strong, so strong that even if he hasn't played yet, you can feel the confidence and strength in his music.

Lang Liangyue looked at Fu and said with a smile:

"Fu tune, come back and listen to my performance when you have time, and see how I beat those people, you must come and see it."

“……”

Fu Tiao was silent, watching Lang Liangyue finally nod slowly.

"Hmm."
