The Tchaikovsky Competition was approaching. After having some exchanges with Pei Hongyu and confirming that all aspects were correct, Liao Yuan arrived in Moscow two days in advance, preparing to rest and recuperate temporarily to build up his physical strength and spirit for the competition in two days' time.
.
Moscow, Tchaikovsky Conservatory.
Chaiyuan is a world-class prestigious school and a world-famous music education center. It aims to cultivate master musicians. Since its establishment, it has trained a large number of world-renowned musicians in the past two hundred years. Among them, the famous musician Lahe
Maninov is one of them.
It is hailed as a myth in the music world and has a symbolic status in the classical music world.
It is also the venue for the Tchaikovsky Competition.
"Mr. Liao, are you here already?"
"Yes, they have settled in the Kempinski Hotel."
Peter smiled and said: "This Mr. Liao is young and energetic. I heard that not long ago, his girlfriend participated in the Hamamatsu Piano Competition and unfortunately lost when competing with a Japanese player for first place. Mr. Liao wanted to win the prize for his girlfriend."
My friend, I went to the Hamamatsu Piano Competition and trashed the venue. I played a song called "La San" on the spot, which shocked all the pianists present. The Japanese player who won the first place bowed and apologized to Mr. Liao. In Asian Music
In the industry, this matter has become a hot topic..."
"It's hard to achieve great things with this kind of mind!"
Philip, the director of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory of Music, snorted: "China has never produced any top pianists. They may be good at playing the pipa and erhu, but they are not good at playing the piano, the king of musical instruments.
What a representative figure..."
"You are wrong. Mr. Liao's song "Wild Fire" was a blockbuster at the Asian Musicians Special held at the Golden Hall last year. His girlfriend is also extraordinary. She seems to be the gold medal winner of the Chopin International Piano Competition.
, you must know that the position of Chopin Gold Medal winner has been vacant for two consecutive terms... These two people alone are enough to represent the Chinese piano industry."
Peter argued: "What's more, in the past few decades, two pianists from China have won the gold medal in the piano category of the Tchaikovsky Competition! This is an indisputable fact!"
Peter is now almost a fanatical fan of Liao Yuan, and he also knows that Liao Yuan's current strength is enough to shake the world's music scene.
However, due to the lack of information in various aspects, Liao Yuan's popularity still has not really developed in Russia, even the United States, the United Kingdom and other European and American places. Even though "War Rhapsody", "Flight of the Bumblebee" and other songs are relatively well-known,
That's just compared to the work, people don't have much impression on the creator of the work.
The so-called Aiwujiwu, although he had never paid much attention to the Chinese piano industry before, after becoming a fan of Liao Yuan, Peter still gained a detailed understanding of the Chinese music scene through various aspects.
But what I have to say is that there are indeed very few real pianists in the Chinese music scene.
A country with a population of 1.3 billion people only started a wave of music learning after entering the new century.
Among them, the status of piano has gradually risen in recent years with the successful holding of the One Emperor and Four Emperors Competition.
At present, the music atmosphere in China is very strong. I believe that in the near future or even before our eyes, Chinese musicians will go abroad and sweep awards all over the world.
Until now, Peter still feels that if Liao Yuan is willing to go out in person, it will be absolutely easy to sweep the awards of the three major music competitions in the world.
Philip raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "I have no objection to Liao Yuan being a judge, since he doesn't have the right to vote anyway."
Looking at Phillip's leaving figure, Peter sighed slightly.
Due to the all-round rejuvenation of China's economy, military, and culture, all developed countries are eyeing China. The outside world has also spared no effort to smear China, causing many people in the older generation with inherent ideas to feel disgusted with China.
.
But among the younger generation, due to their open thinking and Internet connections, in this era of booming confidence, many young people who know how to identify information have gradually begun to understand the advantages of China from all aspects. They marvel at the four characteristics of China.
More than ten years of rapid development have given China a more intuitive understanding of China's emergence as the world's second largest economy.
For example, Peter, although he is in his early fifties, is very keen on emerging things, so he is very timely updated on the external information he comes into contact with. In recent years, he has often traveled to China to observe and appreciate the beauty of China.
But Philip, as the director of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory of Music, is already over seventy years old.
He is no longer too lazy to understand new things, and the inherent concepts are deeply rooted in people's hearts.
For Chinese and even Chinese players, Philip will never treat them well in the space where they can operate.
However, all this does not matter, Peter will not worry about whether Liao Yuan will suffer a loss.
After all, Mr. Liao is not a competitive player.
…
"Son, this is the Kempinski Hotel. Let's go and visit Mr. Liao."
The sun was shining brightly, and a middle-aged man wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and black leather shoes excitedly greeted the teenager next to him: "Mr. Liao is from China and is also a judge of this Tchaikovsky Competition.
It is always right to build a good relationship with Mr. Liao and let him take care of you more on the field."
"Dad, I don't want to go." The young man stood there and said with some resistance.
The middle-aged man said in surprise: "Hey, you boy, we and Mr. Liao are both Chinese. When we go out, we are all relatives of the same mother. Are you not happy to ask him to take care of you?"
The young man shook his head: "I think this is not good. A competition is a competition. If you win, you will win. If you lose, you will lose. If I get the first place, it is because of Mr. Liao's care, then I would rather not get the first place.
"
"You know nothing!"
The middle-aged man was a little angry, but the looks from the people around him calmed him down and he said with a smile: "Xiao Di, Moscow is not a country, and the Tchaikovsky Competition is not comparable to some events in our provincial capital.
Here, there are talented players from hundreds of countries around the world, and every player is very famous in their own country, so you are sure that you will win?"
The young man stopped talking, but still stood there, motionless.
"You, you bastard!"
The middle-aged man took a deep breath, took the gift box from the young man's hand into his own, and then asked: "You wait here, your dad is thick-skinned, I will go to the head office myself, right?"
The young man stopped talking and lowered his head, his face gloomy.
Soon, the middle-aged man used various "technical" means to find out the room number where Liao Yuan was staying, and then went all the way and knocked on Liao Yuan's door. ——
