Chapter 286: Geniuses are really neurotic
The moment the four of them stepped into the land of Salzburg, the flow of people from foreign attractions instantly surged, and everything seemed so crowded.
Compared with the Ruhr Piano Festival, which has a total of tens of thousands of people throughout the year, the Salzburg Festival has long been a super-large festival with hundreds of thousands of people.
Dense crowds crowded into and out of Salzburg.
The crowds of people who came to listen to the festival and tourists all mixed together and flocked to the city.
Fu Tiao and the three people behind him did not immediately visit the city with the group of passers-by, but instead went in the direction of the flow of the crowd and came to the corner of the main fire in Salzburg.
Here, there is another group of protagonists of this year's Salzburg Festival.
Musicians from all over the world.
A small bus stopped there, Fu Tiao walked to the side of the bus with the three people behind him, and handed the documents in his hand to the driver who was sitting on the side of the car smoking, and the driver did not hesitate, got up and opened the door of the bus, revealing the seats of the six people facing each other, and sent them into it.
Then shuttled through the small roads of this small city and came to the most prosperous hotel in the city.
Sheraton Grand Salzburg Hotel.
The 5-star Sheraton Salzburg Hotel is located in the heart of Salzburg, facing the Mirabell Palace and Mirabell Gardens, and within a 15-minute walk of Mozarts Birthplace, the Festspielhaus Theatre and the Salzburg Cathedral.
Although it is normally available for outsiders, in recent times, they have stopped most of their supply to the outside world.
No, to be precise, it's not about stopping the supply, it's about raising the price.
The price of a night may have been around 300 euros, but now the price of a night may be doubled to 600 euros or even more.
The Salzburg Festival has rented the hotel in advance for all the artists they invite to perform at the Salzburg Festival.
Although the place is not so far from the Salzburg train station, which is about a 10-minute walk, the organizers of the Salzburg Festival chose to pull them to the hotel in order to prevent the many artists from appearing in the crowd and causing a riot.
When we got to the hotel, the artists would have no problem going out again.
After all, they are already in place.
And if the artist insists on walking by without taking the car, which causes some riots, it has nothing to do with them.
After all, the cars have been parked there, and a special person has been arranged to wait, which can basically be regarded as benevolent.
Just a few minutes later, before Fu Diao and the others could react, the car had already stopped at the door of the Sheraton Hotel.
There are a lot of tourists and passers-by gathered in the neighborhood.
They frantically took pictures of the hotel door with the cameras in their hands, hoping to capture the figures they were familiar with.
As Fu Zhao's car passed through the crowd and stopped at the Sheraton Hotel, the hotel staff opened their doors, and the noise around them instantly became louder and more harsh.
"Fu! It's Diorfu! Oh my God, Dior Fu is here too! ”
"The star of the Ruhr Festival, didn't he just play at the Ruhr Festival the other day? How long has it been since he received invitations to two major music festivals? ”
"Fu! Tutor! Tutor! Fu, look at me! Fu give me an autograph, Fu! ”
"Wow, you look behind Dior, the people behind him are not ordinary people!"
"Mira? It's Mira! Cello Prize Mira? How is she with Fu? ”
"It's not just Mirahan! And Taha! Elizabeth Champion Taha, oh my God, this lineup is nothing short of an all-star talent lineup! ”
"What are they going to play this year? I haven't even started listening to it, but I'm already looking forward to it! I'm really looking forward to it! ”
"Ahhhh There's one more person behind Dior, Mira, and Taha! This man is !! Forehead...... Who? ”
Camilo got out of the car, and was just about to wave at everyone with a smile, but when he heard the comments of the people around him, he couldn't help but stumble and glared at the group of people! Loud voice.
"Camilo! Camelot! My name is Camilo! Come on, you don't even know my name! ”
Everyone was so frightened by his momentum that they stepped back, and then looked at each other and wondered:
"Camilo? Who's that? Haven't heard of ......."
"Seems to be from the Berliner Philharmoniker? I probably probably had the ...... before Have you seen him once? ”
"I don't know, I don't know, I haven't heard ......"
"Hmm...... Based on this composition, he could have been a viola-player? ”
"No wonder, if it's a viola, it makes sense."
"Oh, it's a viola...... Viola, come on, Kakaros! ”
"Come on! Little brother who plays the viola! ”
"What Kakaros? It's called Kaslana! ”
"It's called Carmen!"
"I seem to hear a Mi, probably called Miyu!"
"I heard Luo, probably called Luo Tianyi!"
“……”
Listening to the dense voices of the people around him, Camilo's expression changed extremely complicated, but soon, his mood was calm.
Because another car is coming from behind, and another music star is here.
The crowd dragged their cameras and continued to photograph the music star behind them, leaving Camilo standing there with a sad face.
However, this calm did not last long, and after hearing the sound of Fu in the hotel, he jumped and ran towards the hotel.
Dior had already finished the registration at this moment, and the staff over there took out four room cards from the front desk and said to Fu.
"This is a room card for two double rooms, you can allocate it freely, and then your performance time is almost three days later, in the Chamber Music Hall of Mozart University, the time is half past three in the afternoon, a very good time, and your room card is valid until the fifth day, if you want to stay in Salzburg for a few more days, you come to the front desk to find me, and I will help you with the renewal procedures."
After Fu Tiao took the card handed over by the front desk staff, he threw the card that lived with him to Camilo who had just come in, and handed the other room to Taha and Mira, and asked the staff casually.
"By the way, if I renew my stay, do I need to charge extra?"
"There is no additional charge for the extra charge, the Salzburg Festival Organizing Committee has already paid for all this, so you don't need to pay for it again...... However, except for those additional paid items, it is also worth noting that there is no priority for you to renew your stay, the priority is for the artists who need to play later, and if the room is tight, we will sort the list according to the importance of the list, so ......"
He didn't finish his words, but Fu Tiao had already understood what he meant, and only nodded slightly.
"Okay, I got it."
"However, if you insist on living here, the Salzburg Festival Organizing Committee will coordinate for you to live in a suitable location, but it is a little regrettable that it may not be arranged with a five-star standard, but a four-star or even three-star standard."
"Okay!"
Fu Tiao nodded, accompanied by the staff's voice of "I wish you a pleasant stay", looked at the three people behind him, and nodded slightly.
"Any questions about occupancy allocation? If there are no problems, you can ask them now! ”
"Nope!"
Taha and Mira shook their heads first, indicating that they were all right.
Camilo scratched his cheeks, stopped the sassy words stuck in his mouth, and smiled awkwardly.
"I, there's nothing wrong with that."
"So ......"
Fu Tiao was about to say go up directly, but he was stuck.
Because he saw other artists who lived here.
He ran into an acquaintance.
Marta Argerich and her husband, who don't know how many generations of her husband or what kind of lover they were, walked out of the elevator arm in arm, her face full of sorrow, and she kept muttering something.
Fu Tiao thought about it, put away his room card, and said to Camilo.
"You guys go up first, I'll go up later."
"Ha, I know, you must have seen which idol! Let me see...... Oh hoo, Argerich! ”
Marta Argerich is no longer limited to piano stars, she has become a top art star around the world, even Camilo knows it.
However, Camilo seems to know Argerich better than Fu Tune.
He just glanced at Argerich's state and shook his head.
"Forget it, Dior, let's go upstairs together, go up and have a good rest and sleep, Argerich is not in the right state now."
"Isn't that right? What's wrong? Fu Tiao didn't understand it.
Camilo picked up his luggage and said to Fu Tiao as he walked forward.
"Haven't you heard the rumors of Argerich?"
"Rumors?"
Fu Tiao followed behind Camilo and walked in the direction Argerich came from, that is, in the direction of the elevator hall, looking at Argerich who was gradually approaching, and couldn't help asking.
"What rumors?"
"It's just that she doesn't practice much, but she often has that kind of overreaction, and when she feels that she hasn't practiced for a long time, she will keep saying that I want to practice, I want to practice, and if I don't practice again, I'll be finished, and my artistic career will be completely over......
"I'm going to be finished, I'm going to be finished, I haven't practiced yet, honey, you know what? I haven't practiced yet, no, I have to find a place to practice, I have to find a place to practice, I'm going on stage, I'm so nervous, I'm completely unprepared, I have to prepare, do I still have time? I want to practice, I want to practice ......"
Before Fu Tiao could get closer, he had already heard Argerich's extraordinarily nervous and nervous speech.
Her gaze was like that of a crowd of drug addicts, constantly scanning her surroundings to find a place where she could practice.
And her hands were already bouncing on her trouser legs, twitching something.
It seemed to play her trousers like piano keys.
Extraordinarily impatient and helpless.
The man next to him, known as dear, sighed and comforted Argerich.
"Marta, I know, I know, don't worry, let's go find a place to practice now, your piano is very good, you play without any problems, trust me, Marta."
"I know, but I don't practice, I want to practice, I want to practice, I have to practice now, if I don't practice, my career as an artist will be ruined......"
Fu raised his hand and was about to say hello, but Marta Argerich ignored him and continued to look for other places to practice, as if there was nothing else left in her world.
The man who was standing beside her noticed Fu Tuo's waving hand, and made an apologetic hand shape and mouth shape to Fu Tuo, and continued to walk outside with Argerich, looking for a place where she could practice in peace.
Fu Tiao reluctantly put down his hand and continued to walk towards the elevator hall.
And Camilo was on the side with a burst of emotion, and said to Fu.
"I'm right, she's really in the practice period now, and when she finishes practicing, or the concert is over, she can probably return to normal, and during this time, I think it's better not to provoke her!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion not far away, and an unknown artist greeted Argerich happily, but Argerich didn't even look at him, and ran away on his own.
The artist was embarrassed to reach out in the air, a little overwhelmed, so he scratched his head and walked to the other side laughing as if nothing had happened.
Although he pretended to have nothing to do, his embarrassment could probably be deducted from a three-bedroom apartment.
Seeing that person like this, Fu Tuo nodded.
"When you say that, I do seem to have an impression, I remember when I met her before, it seemed to be the same, she was also a little nervous."
"Huh? How so? Camilo's eyes lit up and he asked curiously.
"Actually, it's nothing, I'll tell you when I get down to the elevator."
Mira and Taha had already gotten on the elevator to their floor, while Fu and Camilo were on the other elevator.
Waiting for the elevator door to close, when Fu Tiao was about to speak, one hand stopped in front of the elevator door and opened the elevator door again.
The person who wanted Argerich to say hello before bowed apologetically to Fu Tuo, scratched his head, and whispered.
"Sorry, sorry, let me in for a while, bothering you."
With that, he stood in front of the two of them and pressed the floor.
It was on the floor below the two of them, and after only a few seconds, his floor arrived, and after apologizing to Fu and Camilo again, he quickly left the elevator, as if he was still feeling sad that he had been ignored by Argerich.
At this moment, only Fu Tuo and Camillo were left in the elevator, Fu Tiao shrugged his shoulders slightly and asked Camillo.
"Where did I just go?"
"You said you knew Argerich's state, you'd seen it before."
"Oh yes."
Fu Tiao nodded and continued: "When I first entered the qualifiers for the Chopin International Piano Competition, I was invited by Argerich, and she invited me to talk about my Chopin and help me improve my personal Chopin level, so I went without hesitation. ”
"And then?" Camillo's eyes lit up and he asked curiously: "What does this have to do with Argerich's state?" ”
"Of course there are ......"
Fu Tiao smiled helplessly, sighed: "The previous conversation was good, and then after I started to show her the music, she said that her next performance arrangement, talking about the whole state suddenly became very wrong, and suddenly said that she hadn't practiced for a long time, and she needed to practice, and then she climbed to the piano and started playing, regardless of whether I was still on the side......"
"If it were someone else, I might still be a little confused, but you're talking about Argerich...... I feel like she's really something she can do. ”
Speaking of this place, Camilo sighed in the same way.
Sure enough, the more awesome the artist, the more eccentric, and everyone has their own special hobbies and habits.
Looking at Fu Diao beside him, Camilo felt lucky for the first time, Fu Diao was so normal, and he didn't make any strange things.
He is usually cold, he doesn't know what he's thinking every day, he feels a little mysterious, and he plays the piano very well, and he has high requirements for music, forcing them to keep practicing a little, and there is no problem at all.
Not......
Compared to Argerich and the others, this felt like enough.
Bite!
The elevator door opened, Fu Tiao didn't bother to pay attention to what Camilo was thinking behind him, and walked directly to his room.
With the sound of card swiping, the door opened, and sunlight poured into the room through the window.
It's not a floor-to-ceiling window, it's just a simple little window, a classic cruciform window.
After Fu Tiao casually put his luggage on the luggage rack, he walked to the window, reached out to open the floor-to-ceiling window, looked out the window, and then was stunned.
It's hard to say whether the view outside the window is good or bad, because all you can see outside the window is the lush greenery, and the dense foliage obscures everything in front of the window.
You can only see through the gap between the leaves, the castle that sits on the top of a hill in the distance.
Quiet and peaceful.
Although I felt that the price and the facilities in the house did not particularly match, looking at the greenery in my eyes and the faint castle in the distance, Fu Diao's heart calmed down.
"Turning back...... Let's rehearse again? I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a little bit of Argerich too......"
Fu Tiao put his hand on his chest, felt the beating of his heart, and couldn't help but speak.
"I'm looking forward to the next performances, and I hope we won't have any problems playing."
"Rehearsal ......"
Camilo, who was lying on the bed with a click, heard the word, and the mask of pain instantly appeared on his face.
Sure enough, he shouldn't have said anything nonsense that Fu Tuo was different from that group of people just now.
Geniuses are all the same! Whether it's Fu Tiao, or Argerich, or anyone else, they're all sick! It's been almost ten hours in the car, can't you take a break?
Camilo covered his eyes and looked at Fu Tuo with the afterglow between his fingers, and couldn't help but roar in his heart.
It's just that the roar in his heart is a roar, and after he took a deep breath, he smiled and said.
"Okay, when do you want to rehearse? I can do it all! ”
I might have to take a leave of absence tomorrow and my parents said they were going to take me to the airport back to Germany.
It would have been fine if they had sent it, but the question was ...... I drive.
I drove my parents to the airport, and then they drove me back and gave me a ride to the airport.
My home is more than 300 kilometers away from Pudong Airport, 400 kilometers away......
