Chapter 80: The Master
Lu Xuan showed through the words from Feng Ying's mouth that the "mysterious person" suspected of pretending to be him had just left Cherbourg today.
Even if Lu Xuan was going to secretly follow Feng Ying as a "mysterious person" for a while, it would be a week later.
Only by waiting and watching the changes first, the next life as a teacher can be said to be a challenge to himself, Lu Xuan, who is not good at communicating with people, although he has experience in teaching apprentices, but after all, it is one-on-one, and he can be as strict as he wants.
Lu Xuan, who has always planned carefully, can only choose this teacher experience, the car to the mountain, there must be a road, the boat to the bridge, naturally straight.
Cherbourg is located in the Manche department of the Lower Normandy region in northwestern France, and although it is a seaport city, it has quite a lot of contact with Britain and Ireland through shipping, so it can be regarded as prosperous.
In addition to the various trading companies, another feature of the city is that there are many schools, not only local French students, but also European students.
TL Private Aristocratic School, located in the most expensive south of Cherbourg, is clearly distinguished from the colleges and universities in the northern suburbs, with a campus of more than 40,000 square meters for only 5,000 students.
There are all kinds of facilities such as a teaching building, a gymnasium, a track and field field, a comprehensive recreation room, a concert hall, a biology experiment building, a virtual library, and even a mecha research and development center.
Because it was a weekend, Feng Ying's light energy bm.- To Lu Xuan's surprise, until Feng Ying parked the car, no one from the school came to greet her.
Feng Ying's face was obviously not quite right, she threw Lu Xuan in the car, got out of the car by herself, and stayed away from the car for some distance before using her small smartphone to make calls.
Lu Xuan knew that Feng Ying didn't want him to hear the content of the phone call because he pulled away, but Feng Ying's increasingly ugly face made Lu Xuan realize. It doesn't seem like I'm in trouble when I came to this school by myself.
Feng Ying, who hung up the phone vigorously, walked back angrily with her high heels, and she pulled the car door hard. "I'm sorry, maybe our commission is about to be terminated, but I'll pay you a gratuity. ”
"What's going on?" Lu Xuan has always been unfazed.
"There was a little accident and a competitor appeared in your profession. Feng Ying, who sighed, sat back in the driver's seat.
"Contenders?"
"Yes, a teacher has recommended a new piano teacher to the school, and he has arrived. The school offers to make you compete. So I don't think we're going to get this position. Feng Ying started the engine of the car.
"Wait a minute, it's a competitor, it's good to compete. Lu Xuan said lightly.
"What a joke. At the age of twenty-five, he has already given solo recitals in dozens of countries, and he is willing to come to TL to teach temporarily. The school release can be said to be unwanted, and why should you compete with others. Feng Ying smiled bitterly.
"I haven't tried it, how do you know. Lu Xuan opened the car door. I got out of the car myself.
"Forget it, I'll pay the honorarium. ”
"Hmm. Since you're here, it's good to give it a try. Lu Xuan said in a clear and powerful voice, "If the competition fails, I will leave directly, and I will not ask for a penny of your honorarium." ”
"Okay. Feng Ying shook her head, "It's not a matter of money, I know that you martial arts practitioners have their own pride, this competition will be held in the largest recital hall in the school, although it is a weekend, but it is expected that there will be thousands of people on the scene, and the principal who has a deep knowledge of music is also there, I ...... I don't want people to think you're humiliating. ”
"Lead the way. Lu Xuan said in a deep voice.
Feng Ying, who originally wanted to say something, nodded under Lu Xuan's irresistible tone, "Okay, I hope you don't regret it." ”
"The one who regrets it won't be me. Lu Xuan said meaningfully.
The road from the school parking lot to the concert hall is not long, it takes about ten minutes to walk, but Ying thinks that the road is surprisingly short, because she doesn't want to see this picture of a martial artist who feels good being humiliated by a world-class pianist, Westgard is notoriously sharp and mean.
"Qiaoqiao, are you?" Lu Xuan opened the communication port.
"Yes, what's the matter? You're not going to mess up the first mission, are you? Don't blame me if you don't get the honorarium......"
"Look up two things for me. Lu Xuan directly interrupted her warning.
Say. Jojo realized the seriousness of the situation and instantly entered the state of a professional black page broker.
"1. Information on the pianist Westgaard. ”
"Westgaard, Germany's youngest talented pianist?"
"It should be him. ”
"You like his piano music too, you have a good taste. ”
"No, wait a minute, I'm going to compete with him for the position of a piano teacher at a private aristocratic school. ”
“......”
"Qiaoqiao, are you there?" Lu Xuan felt the silence over there.
"In, Lu Xuan, you will lose, maybe your piano skills will not be weaker than him, but your performance sounds gorgeous at first glance, but when you taste it, you will find that the soul embedding is not enough, and the charm is slightly insufficient, this is the difference between a master and a player, you can be said to be the strongest player, but compared to a real master, you lack soul, if the judge is a computer, you will win, but if it is a person, you will definitely lose if you fight with Westgard. ”
"Hmm. ”
"There is no way for you to win such a task, alas, it can only be said that we have no fate. Jojo sighed.
"Don't speak too soon. Lu Xuan said calmly, "Give me Westgaard's information first." ”
"Westgard is the youngest generation of pianists in the world today and is known as the most promising pianist in the piano world, but in the hearts of piano fans, he is already a piano master, at the age of 14, he participated in the Swiss International Young Pianist Competition and won the first prize. He graduated from the Ludison Conservatory in France at the age of 16, where he studied under Dean Carracci. At the age of 17, at the San Francisco Music Festival, he temporarily succeeded the ailing pianist Sauber and set off a whirlwind of sensations, with the public and critics unanimously praising his performance as "brilliant," "dizzying," and "a rare genius." Since then, he has won numerous awards and held solo concerts in nearly 100 countries. Jojo quickly gave the information.
"Okay, the second thing, check the information of the principal of the TL private aristocratic school for me. ”
Zhang Jilong, 46 years old, overseas Chinese, founder of TL private aristocratic school, was born in Germany since childhood, studied in ancient literature at Huaxia University in China, and has a double doctorate in Chinese ancient literature and Chinese history. ”
"I see. Lu Xuan nodded.
"It's useless to know this information, how can you play the piano better than Westgard. Qiao Qiao said gloomily.
"No, now, I have seven odds of winning. Lu Xuan said lightly.
