When Ren He finished playing the third chapter of Pathetique, there was long-lasting applause in the rehearsal hall. When everyone first saw Ren He, their first reaction was that he was too young. This age was completely different from what they imagined.
But now that the four pieces of music have been performed, everyone's minds have changed. Not to mention the creation, even the performance level is impeccable.
In fact, this is the case, everyone present is an expert, and you will know what your level is as soon as you hear it.
Chairman Joseph apologized and said: "I'm sorry for my previous doubts about you. Whether it is performance or composition, you are indeed qualified to hold the professorship at our Juilliard School of Music."
This is also a stereotype. They think about it, how can someone with a master level pretend to do such a thing, and what the other party presents is original, and they have not heard it elsewhere.
Ren He smiled and said: "It's okay. There is no foundation of trust between us. It's reasonable for you to question. I also hope to be able to work at the Juilliard School of Music, but... I have another idea that I don't know if I can get.
With your approval, I want to teach performance courses, not composition."
He continued to talk nonsense seriously: "In fact, I think I don't know how to teach this aspect of creation. I always feel that this kind of thing has a lot to do with talent and inspiration, so I want to teach piano playing skills.
course."
What he was actually thinking was that Yang Xi studied musical instrument playing, and her specialty was piano. She had wanted to learn piano before. Although she was good at guitar, she had been taking music theory classes during the past year.
Practicing piano, now I have fulfilled my wish. Ren He feels that instead of teaching composition, it is better to teach Yang Xi piano...
Anyway, he has nothing to worry about this time. There is no point in always avoiding Su Ruqing and the others.
Everyone looked at each other, this must be another accident. The position that Joseph set for Ren He before was to be a professor in the composition department, but now he doesn’t want to teach composition, but wants to teach piano performance...
It would definitely not work in the past. After all, this is a regular school. You can teach whatever you want. No one has a choice.
But in fact, the higher you get, the more you respect talents. From now on, Ren He is a master in composition, piano performance, and violin performance. If such a person really only wants to teach piano
Performance, Juilliard School of Music will carefully consider his decision.
Joseph looked embarrassed and said: "Can we have a small meeting? After all, this is not a small decision."
"Of course, I'm waiting outside the rehearsal hall. Thank you Juilliard School for giving me this opportunity." Ren He thinks it's normal for people to hesitate. Things to consider in real life should be comprehensive. If the other party introduces
It would be beneath the dignity of the Juilliard School to just play whatever you want based on your own level.
Ren He was waiting outside the door, and everyone in the rehearsal hall was sitting together and discussing.
Chairman Joseph considered: "There is no doubt that he does have the level to be qualified for piano performance courses, but the problem is that our own piano course and composition course professors are both vacant, and piano course professors are easier to find, and composition courses are easier to find.
Talents in this field are hard to come by, and I still hope that he can serve as a professor in the composition department."
He is the chairman, so his perspective on issues will be more from the perspective of resource allocation at the Juilliard School.
"I think we should respect his choice. After all, this kind of genius is the most rare thing. Can you imagine that he is only 16 years old? As long as he is in Juilliard School, the comprehensive strength of the school will be the same in the future.
A certain improvement. Have you ever considered how much influence these four songs will have in the field of classical music after they are released? How long has it been since we have seen such excellent works?" A middle-aged woman said excitedly.
"I think what Maiya said makes sense. This young man just shocked me so much, especially the last Croatian Rhapsody and his new song. I haven't been so shocked by someone for a long time. I agree to respect him.
Personal choice!" said a white man.
Chairman Joseph just stood there with his arms folded and thinking, and then he was silent for a full minute and then said: "Okay, I agree with him as a piano performance professor! I think we should have a more tolerant attitude towards geniuses.
Our Juilliard School exists for talented people, not only talented students, but also talented teachers!”
Until then, it was finally confirmed that Ren He would enter the Juilliard School of Music.
Ren He thought a lot on the way here. He deeply understood that a regular university would not ignore objective existing problems so easily, and his age itself was a limitation, just as everyone in the rehearsal hall imagined.
: If a 16-year-old boy teaches others, it will really make people laugh!
However, since Ren He had this consideration in mind, he was determined to break their inherent concepts.
The United States has come, but it is not his style to return with a broken head.
Joseph officially signed a three-year contract with Ren He on behalf of the Juilliard School of Music, with a monthly salary of US$22,000 to teach piano lessons!
During this period, Joseph also asked Ren He for his opinion on whether the four works could be recorded for him in the name of the Juilliard School and promoted to the outside world. These four works were so excellent that Joseph himself couldn't wait to do so.
I want many, many people to know that this was written by their professor at Juilliard School.
Ren He thought for a while and replied: "There is no problem with this at all, but I want to wait. But what I can promise you is that there is no problem with this matter. I will record it while teaching at the Juilliard School, and even this
It won’t be long, just a few months.”
Joseph was satisfied when he heard the other party's promise.
After Ren He finished all this work, he started looking for an apartment to rent next to the Juilliard School of Music. Since he was not short of money, it only took him one afternoon to find a particularly luxurious high-end apartment in the downtown area, with two bedrooms and one apartment.
The house in the hall costs only 3,500 US dollars a month, which is completely negligible for Ren He's income.
Standing at the floor-to-ceiling window of his new home, Ren He could directly see the Juilliard School of Music downstairs. Ren He himself felt relieved after finally getting all this done. He didn't blame Yang Xi for not resisting what his family had done.
Decide, in fact, if he really has a disagreement with Lao Ren and Ren's mother, even he himself can only choose a temporary compromise.
They are parents, not passers-by. You don’t need to consider their feelings or joys, sorrows and joys at all. They are the parents who gave birth to you and raised you and love you. You cannot break this relationship. There can never be absoluteness in this world.
Not even Ren He can have freedom.
Precisely because Ren He is mentally mature, he also knows how to respect this relationship and everyone's feelings, and blindly pursues what he wants. Living like that is too selfish.
Although Ren He is selfish, he respects his parents and Yang Xi's parents.
However, this time he chose a more intense way to prove his determination to be with Yang Xi to Su Ruqing and Yang En.
He is also tired of hiding love. Will he be able to chase her to Mars next time he is discovered? He will be tired too!
So whether Su Ruqing and Yang En can be made to acquiesce in his relationship with Yang Xi depends on whether they can successfully change their minds this time.
