Chapter One Thousand One Hundred and Seventy Nine: A Small Half of Luxury
On the palace stage with flashy arches, an almost substantial golden glow spreads across the floor like water.
Above this, everyone is dressed in meticulous black and white formal wear, sitting in a semicircle with a black leather sheet in front of them,
The conductor of the orchestra in the center looks focused. The first and second principal violins lead the members behind them. The violas and cellos highlight the brown classical style. The twelve double basses on the right side of the outermost layer are arranged in a row.
Flute, piccolo, clarinet and oboe make up the diverse woodwind section, trumpets, trombones, French horns and tubas play the sonorous brass section,
The timpani is surrounded by other percussion instruments, and the most conspicuous harp is independent from the rear.
Various elements interweave tradition and elegance in the classical style of musical instruments.
On the stage is a symphony orchestra with more than a hundred people!
Coming from Vienna, the capital of music, as one of the top symphony orchestras in the world, it has a history of more than a hundred years and has experienced eras led by several masters.
This grand performance of theirs across the ocean should have attracted the attention of the whole audience, and the seats were packed.
but,
Outside of the glow that illuminates the stage at this moment, there are almost no people on the 5 floors with a total of more than 2,800 seats.
No, to be precise,
There are only two people.
Sitting in the seat with the best sound field in the entire main hall, Fangran looked at the ensemble of hundreds of people in the stage light. When he came back from immersion, the thought came to him again,
Wait, why am I here...
The financial sector has fallen into a final crisis, with Golden Iris stock plummeting and an 'avalanche' of more than 650 billion US dollars with only the last few days left.
Clarify the situation, peel off the cocoon, and use cheating technology to discover a world-class ability interference.
Then he is attending a concert now.
Well, listen to the concert...
It's like a mountain collapsed in front of you and you soaked your feet, standing out calmly and calmly,
No...there must be something wrong...
Feeling so dizzy holding his forehead, Fangran looked at the reason that brought him to this place, and silently looked at Veronica who was sitting next to him with her eyes closed and listening.
I couldn't help but twitch the corner of my mouth slightly, and was shaken by what I had thought before.
Could this person really be out for fun?
A soothing break, as the orchestra conductor suddenly raised his hand, all the instruments in the music section ended the magnificent sound smoothly at the end of his passionate movements,
This Symphony No. 3 in E flat major comes to an end like an epic chapter.
My eyes reflected the light of the stage, and I couldn't help but applaud from the bottom of my heart.
Then one person's applause sounded alone in the main hall,
I always felt weird about such scenes. Fangran looked at the empty scene around him with complicated eyes.
Carnegie Hall - located in Manhattan, New York, is a national historic landmark and one of the most famous concert halls in the world. Many musicians regard performing on stage here as a sign of success.
And today, the place was booked by the queen beside him.
She was deceived by Veronica's previous smile and said, "How about we go find a place nearby to listen to two pieces of music?" Although it was indeed nearby, although it was indeed nearby,
But Fangran didn't expect it to be such a specification that was completely beyond common sense.
Just for a random reason like "I occasionally want to listen to music quietly", I booked a world-class music palace.
When Fangran understood that the music Veronica was talking about turned out to be at the level of a symphony,
Once again refreshed the perception of her luxury...
"So...why are we here at the concert?"
Because it is rude to talk during a performance of this level, and the posture of the queen sitting on the red velvet chair is too high for anyone to dare to disturb.
After the song ended, Fang Ran sighed helplessly and asked,
And it was at this time that she slowly opened her silver-gray eyes, and Veronica rested her arms on the armrest and spoke lazily:
"Because it's been a long time since I last went out, and even I can't enjoy a symphony performance at home."
Hey...is there anything you can't achieve...
Listening to Veronica's words, she was mainly surprised that there were enjoyments that she could not get in reality, and then Fangran heard the queen beside her chuckle needlessly:
"After all, it's too much trouble."
(￣-￣;) So it turns out it’s just because it’s troublesome...
"Then why don't you just listen to it yourself? There's no need to drag me along..."
I still thought about taking action myself, but before leaving Huaqi Bank, I tried to persuade her to give up taking over as Adeline, but to no avail.
Fangran felt a strong headache, held his forehead and sighed.
"This is New York, the freest and craziest place in the country, where guns are more legal than fireworks. If there are no shootings for a week, it is worth celebrating,"
"What's more, there is no telling what those association participants will do,"
In the darkness, getting close to an intimate distance, Veronica chuckled with an ambiguous hint, and softly spoke words that men could not refuse,
"Are you sure you can leave me alone?"
Then don't come!
Looking at her noble and perfect face from close range, Fangran distracted his mind with the shouting in his heart, and managed to maintain his composure in front of her.
Then he slowly let go of his breath and said with a headache that he still couldn't say a definite answer:
"Even so, if we don't investigate those brokerage companies at this time, is it really good to come here to listen to the concert?"
"An excellent hunter needs to be patient and well-prepared to be able to kill with a single blow. Don't you also have a saying in China, which is called a sharpened knife and a good chopper?"
It is clear that the financial sector is in danger, and it is unknown how much impact it will have after the 'avalanche', and how much impact it will have on society, but on the surface there is no sign of worry at all.
It perfectly demonstrates what it means to be calm and courageous in a superior position.
Veronica looked at the classical symphony orchestra on the stage, and after making an inexplicable explanation, she looked at the young man beside her and smiled:
"Or are you not interested in the symphony?"
"That's not true..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I don’t understand what the relationship between listening to concerts and sharpening knives is. Fangran looked at the stage when he heard this question,
Before walking here, he knew nothing about the symphony, but even so, sitting there and listening to it with his own ears,
Go and listen to hundreds of genuine musical instruments intertwined for the same song,
From a syllable or melody, you can hear a grand triumph or a tense and majestic one, or even more complex ones. It may take several strokes, hundreds of words, or an article to explain the meaning clearly.
Fangran really felt the shock called ‘music’,
Especially that piece of music just now, it always makes him feel inexplicably moved...
"Human beings use strings and vibrations of the air as the ultimate answer to 'how to express a certain emotion, person or thing',"
Sitting on the red velvet chair, she crossed her right leg and put her long fingers to her ears. The queen looked at the conductor with an elegant posture and was ready for the next song.
"Different people, different periods, different life experiences, different levels of appreciation... you will even get a different feeling every time you listen to it,"
"Perhaps this is why masterpieces are immortal."
And hearing her suddenly say such words, it seemed to have a different meaning, but looking at Veronica,
Fangran only saw her looking at him with an elegant smile.
"Anyway, we have confirmed our goal, right? How about taking a break and enjoying the music?"
Unfortunately, this calmness and calmness made me unable to understand her words and deeds that always made me feel that they had profound meaning. I couldn't leave alone, so I had to let go of the anxious thoughts in my heart.
Fangran closed his eyes like her this time and just listened.
As the conductor begins, the music rises again,
A concert usually lasts about one and a half to two hours. Following the first piece just now, this is the second and last piece - Symphony No. 5 in C minor,
Fangran was slightly surprised to hear a melody that was very familiar to him.
Because it is so famous and widely circulated, you may not know where it comes from, but you have definitely heard it in some movie sound effects and other places.
This is probably a world masterpiece.
Temporarily forget about the huge storms in the external financial market, and immerse yourself in the handed down classics played by the top performers, and your thoughts seem to be immersed in it.
Follow the movement until it reaches its final climax!
Then right on the stage, at this moment when the performance had just reached its peak,
Fangran heard Veronica next to her say as if she had lost interest:
