Chapter 97: The People Who Enter the Second Round(1/2)
Chapter 97 People entering the second round
The competition judges want to meet the two of them?
After Fu Tiao and Yu Tianyou glanced at each other, they instantly understood He Shen's thoughts.
Obviously, to be able to get a score at the Chopin International Piano Competition, you must have a little relationship with them. If you have no way to score, you will want to see them.
So who can’t score them both in the Chopin International Piano Competition?
The answer is actually quite obvious...
Li Diyun!
According to common sense, Li Diyun, a pure star, would not make such an action when he came to participate in the Chopin International Piano Competition. After all, whether a Chinese player can get a high score has nothing to do with him.
But Li Diyun actually came anyway, and even invited the two of them to have a meal together and chat.
Fu Tiao immediately looked at He Shen and asked.
"Tonight? Just the three of us?"
"Definitely not. There should be other Chinese contestants. Apart from the two of you, there are 5 other Chinese contestants who have entered the second round of the Chopin International Piano Competition. In other words, after you two are included, there are 7 people who will compete.
After being invited by Li Diyun, if we add some top professors and coaches from China...ahem, I'm talking about me, if we add me, the total number of people will be around 10, which happens to be the number of people from China.
The number of round tables in the country."
"Oh, like this……"
Fu Tiao nodded thoughtfully, without any hesitation, and agreed directly: "Okay, when we turn around, we will go together."
He Shen also nodded: "Okay, I will send you the time and place of the meal later. Then don't forget to go to the organizing committee and send your personal information. They will give it to everyone who enters the first round.
The second-round contestants arranged their rehearsal time and accommodation. The accommodation is at the Chopin Hotel near the concert hall. It only takes a few minutes to walk there, so it is the most convenient place."
"Chopin Hotel?" Fu Diao opened his phone and was a little confused: "Is there a place called this nearby?"
"I know this. Of course there is no place called this nearby. This is what we players and coaches call it." Yu Tianyou stood next to Fu Diao, who had finally recovered from the excitement of high school. He wiped
Wiping his eyes, he cheerfully explained to Fu Diao: "To put it simply, it's the No. 1 Scholar Building, understand? Only if you successfully enter the second round can you live in it. When you are eliminated, then you can pack up.
Get ready to get rid of your things."
"So strict? Can't you spend money to continue living?"
"It is not allowed during the Chopin International Piano Competition. After the Chopin International Piano Competition is over, you can stay as long as you want. You can even book a private room for one or two months."
Yu Tianyou shrugged his shoulders, feeling relaxed as he relaxed the burden in his heart.
"Although I am not very good at it, I still understand the process of the Chopin International Piano Competition. After all, I have participated in it for three years, and I look forward to advancing to the next level every year.
You can stay one night in the Chopin Hotel. I didn’t expect to actually go in this year. Isn’t this a dream come true?”
"Um."
Fu Tiao watched as Yu Tianyou beside him returned to his previous state. He couldn't help but smile and reached out to pat his shoulder: "Come on, try to stay here for a few more days until the end of the game."
"I hope..." Yu Tianyou smiled, then looked at Fu Diao and raised his eyebrows: "You have three days to rest, what are your plans?"
"Practice the piano, what else can you plan?" Fu Diao was at a loss and didn't understand what he meant.
When Yu Tianyou saw Fu Diao like this, he glanced at He Shen again and suddenly woke up.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot that your teacher is still here."
He Shen laughed after hearing this: "What's wrong? If I'm not here, are you going to take him to Hamburg? Or to Amsterdam? Or... to Rotterdam? Antwerp?"
Before Fu Diao understood, Yu Tianyou immediately laughed twice, waved his hand and said: "Those four places are too expensive. In fact, the one I recommend most is Frankfurt. Although Frankfurt is not as rich as those four places."
It’s famous, but one thing is that they are really cheap there, and they are very close, right next to the subway station. It is said that the minimum price for a night is only 20 euros? Oh no, not a night, but a once-in-a-lifetime experience.”
"Is Flan so cheap? I haven't been to Flan for a long time, but I didn't expect Flan to be already..."
"Hey, although Flange is cheaper, there is one thing to say. If you really want to go, I personally think you have to go to Darmstadt. The price in Darm is a little more expensive than Flange, but to be honest, their place
The edge quality is much higher.”
"Oh really?"
"Absolute fidelity! Although I have never been there, I have many friends who have been, and they are very familiar with this." Yu Tianyou raised his hand and assured.
But He Shen didn't seem to believe what he said.
"This friend you are talking about...is his surname also Yu?"
"No, no, just kidding. I've been in China and never had the chance to be so wild. I know these things were taught by my friends! Don't talk nonsense!"
"..."
Fu Diao listened to the conversation between the two of them blankly, not knowing what they were talking about.
What Frankfurt? What Hamburg? What Darmstadt, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Antwerp.
He has some impressions of Frankfurt, but the rest...are all places.
However, seeing that Yu Tianyou and He Shen were chatting so happily, he didn't say much. He just looked at the two of them happily and waited for them to finish talking.
It's a pity... Yu Tianyou is limited to oral sex, and the same is true for He Shen. If it weren't for Zhao Zitong, He Shen might still be a virgin now.
So the two virgins chatted for a long time in that place about non-existent things, pretending to be familiar big brothers who had been there before, and claimed that when the competition was over, they would go to those places to relax together.
The two of them agreed to each other's invitation with great excitement, not realizing that they had proposed it first. They had even thought of an excuse in their minds.
"I really didn't want to come to this place. It was all invited by Teacher He Shen and Yu Tianyou. I couldn't refuse the hospitality! I really had no choice. He dragged me forcefully and said he would take me to a restaurant. What should I do?
What? After all, he is my friend, so I can’t refute his reputation, right? I can only come like this, but I’ve come here, right? I can’t come and do nothing, right?”
They can come up with several weird excuses like this, but each one has nothing to do with them and is all the other person's fault.
Therefore, the two looked at each other and smiled extremely brightly.
Especially Yu Tianyou, after knowing that he was lucky enough to advance to the second round through the first round, he smiled brighter than anyone else.
He Shen glanced at the time, and when he felt that it was almost time, he nodded to the two of them.
"Okay, you go and check in with the staff at Chopin Hotel first, and then we'll go directly to the restaurant. It's almost time anyway."
"good!"
Fu Tiao and Yu Tianyou nodded quickly, picked up their identity certificates and walked towards the staff not far away.
The staff quickly registered their names and competition results, took them to get their room cards, and told them the specific practice time.
In fact, in the second round, after half of the contestants have been eliminated, each contestant can directly make an appointment with them for practice time one day in advance, and each contestant's practice time has been increased from the two hours at the beginning.
Arrived 6 hours.
As long as you can grab a spot.
Later, when more players are screened out, the restrictions on piano practice will continue to be lifted.
When you wait until the fourth round, which is the final round of the Chopin International Piano Competition, when you play the concerto, you can practice however you want, and you can even assign a piano room to each person to practice for you.
After all, the most important thing to practice in the fourth round is not your own skills, but playing with the band, and that is the key.
After Fu Tiao and Yu Tianyou received the specific information, they left directly.
Yu Tianyou first said goodbye to He Shen and Fu Tiao. He planned to go to the place where he was staying to check out, and then check his luggage to the Chopin Hotel.
The place where he lived was a little far away. It would take about half an hour to walk there and ten minutes by car, so he left first and asked He Shen to send him the address information, and he would go there later.
Fu Tiao followed He Shen to the restaurant where Li Diyun invited them.
This is a very Chinese restaurant, and the name of the restaurant in this place is also very Chinese.
"Da Ming Restaurant..."
Looking at the store name in Chinese pinyin, He Shen compared it with the address on his phone and immediately nodded slightly.
"Okay, that's right, this is the place. Let's go in."
After that, he pushed open the door with Fu Diao.
At this moment, there are many diners sitting in the room, most of them are Chinese, and few people from other countries come.
Although it has been promoted that foreigners like to eat Chinese food, in fact, there are not many that they can accept. The vast majority of what they can accept are some that have been improved to suit local tastes and are not recognized at all by the people of origin.
Chinese cuisine.
Xingzhou cuisine and Beizhou Bingzhou cuisine are relatively well-recognized, but the cuisine in other places is very average, especially the Sichuan cuisine, with hot pot being the best.
This restaurant happens to be a restaurant that serves Sichuan cuisine, and the taste is very authentic. In addition, the price is more expensive than other Chinese restaurants, which leads to fewer foreigners inside.
That is to say, some people living in the local area are willing to come over for a meal and do some business with tourists and tour groups.
This kind of restaurant can continue to open because Warsaw is the capital of Poland and there are a lot of tourists and Chinese in Warsaw.
He Shen followed the staff to find the private room where Li Diyun and others were. After opening the door and going in, there were already many people sitting in it.
Li Diyun hasn't come yet, but several other players have come.
For example, Xu Zi and Kong Qi have been mentioned before.
He is a very friendly young man. His hair is combed in a very standard three-quarter length, with a large piece of hair exposed at the corner of his forehead. He always has a smile on his face, just like the big boy next door.
