The venue was bustling with people everywhere. From time to time, people got out of cars and went straight to the cultural center.
When getting out of the taxi, Fu Xiaoci held up the umbrella, coughed, and opened the door.
Then, a man wearing a white mask stepped out of the car.
Many people at the scene noticed this scene, but after just one more glance, they fell back into their own conversation and laughter, seemingly not caring about it.
Fu Xiaoci originally felt a little embarrassed, but she was relieved when she saw this. Soon she saw that many people at the scene were wearing various masks, and she couldn't help but suddenly realized.
She turned back and smiled: "There are so many contestants wearing masks, so it won't be awkward now, haha!"
Liao Yuan was wearing a silicone mask and couldn't see his specific expression clearly. He just nodded slightly and pointed to the stairs. Fu Xiaoci quickly walked in front to lead the way.
At the registration office, when Fu Xiaoci presented the electronic invitation, the staff on site were immediately surprised and looked at Liao Yuan: "You are Uncle A! Welcome!"
After saying that, he quickly called his immediate superiors and informed his immediate superiors. A moment later, a male engineering executive wearing myopia glasses quickly walked out of the venue. When he saw Liao Yuan, he confirmed everything with his subordinates and smiled.
Yingying stepped forward: "Hello, Uncle A, I am the COO responsible for all operations of this event. My name is Liang Qingquan."
"Hello Mr. Liang, Uncle A's voice is not very good. The doctor told him not to speak as much as possible. I am Uncle A's agent Fu Xiaoci. For all matters related to Uncle A, Mr. Liang can contact me at any time. This is mine.
Business card, please also ask Mr. Liang to take good care of our Uncle A."
Fu Xiaoci smiled and took out the newly printed business card and handed it over.
Liang Qingquan felt that Fu Xiaoci looked familiar. He looked down and saw titles such as "President of Little Yellow Fish Culture Agency Co., Ltd." and "Asdfghj Agent" written on the business card, with the suffix "Fu Xiaoci" written on it.
"Fu Xiaoci?"
Liang Qingquan looked up at the young woman in front of him and finally reacted: "Aren't you the anchor of our J station? When did you become Uncle A's manager?"
"Live broadcasts are for youth. You will have to go ashore one day!" Fu Xiaoci patted Liao Yuan's arm with a smile: "I hugged Uncle A's thigh in advance. Is that wrong?"
Liang Qingquan couldn't laugh or cry: "As long as you are happy."
At this time, noticing the arrival of Uncle A, the scene actually caused a small commotion. Many pianists and the audience unconsciously formed a circle and approached Liaoyuan.
Uncle A's name has risen rapidly like a comet in the past month or so. Anyone who has spent time in the music industry will probably be familiar with Uncle A.
After all, he is a man who has destroyed the weekly and monthly popularity charts with his five works. Even some well-known old UP hosts are willing to give way in front of this man, such as the music version of the big UP host Zero Ling Yao.
The new song "Ghost" has just been released, but it was suppressed by Uncle A's new song, and it has not been able to turn around so far.
When they thought of Ling Ling Yao, many spectators at the scene began to look around, hoping to be lucky enough to meet this famous celebrity.
Later, in order to avoid causing greater commotion, Liang Qingquan personally led Liao Yuan and the others to the infield.
"Uncle A, according to the rules of the qualifiers, you have to choose a partner in the first stage to play four-handed bombs together. I wonder if you have a suitable candidate now?" Liang Qingquan asked.
Liao Yuan shook his head.
Fu Xiaoci said: "Uncle A and I discussed it before we came here and decided to draw lots to choose our companions."
Hearing this, Liang Qingquan smiled and said: "Why not choose in advance? You must know that there is a certain chance of drawing weak teammates in the lottery. If there is no certain tacit understanding and corresponding skills among the teammates, they will not be able to show off perfectly.
This is a four-hand piece. In that case, it is very likely to hold you back. You must know that the opponents you will face are also randomly selected. No one knows whether your opponent is a master or a weakling. Once
The other party is a master, so your situation will really encounter an accident, and it will be too late to regret it by then."
"You're not so unlucky, are you?"
Fu Xiaoci didn't believe it: "Those who can pass the audition should generally have a certain level of strength."
Liang Qingquan shook his head and said: "That's not necessarily true. There have been cases of this in previous years. After all, auditions are only based on submitted videos. The actual strength of the contestants has yet to be verified. Some people don't look at them composing one song after another.
, but in fact, they may not even be able to reach amateur level ten."
Seeing that Liao Yuan and Fu Xiaoci were silent, Liang Qingquan smiled and said, "How about I recommend a candidate to you?"
"Who?" Fu Xiaoci asked.
Liang Qingquan smiled and said: "Our J station music version master UP master, Ling Lingyao!"
Fu Xiaoci's eyes lit up, "The musical version of the first sister?"
"That's right." Liang Qingquan laughed and said: "Like Uncle A, Ling Ling Yao has not formed a team yet. I think if you two masters perform four-handed bombing, it will definitely cause a huge amount of discussion.
!”
Fu Xiaoci said unhappily: "Oh, Mr. Liang, are you forcing CP? No, our Uncle A is still pure!"
Liang Qingquan said speechlessly: "Miss Fu, before making a decision, you must first seek Uncle A's opinion on this matter."
Fu Xiaoci tilted her head and looked at Liao Yuan.
Liao Yuan held his throat and said in a rough voice: "Then let's team up with her."
Liang Qingquan couldn't help but said: "Okay, okay, I'll go and notify you right away."
Soon, the famous Ling Ling Yao appeared in front of Liao Yuan.
Ling Lingyao is wearing a white T-shirt and zebra skirt, and when she steps on high heels, she looks unusually tall and has delicate facial features, but the most noticeable thing is her small cherry mouth, which exudes
With crystal luster.
Because she has been well-maintained, her skin is as white as mutton-fat jade, and there are no wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. Overall, her age cannot be seen.
"Hello, Uncle A, I like your works very much." Ling Lingyao looked at Uncle A's mask curiously, then took the initiative to extend his hand and said generously and gracefully: "I hope we can have a happy cooperation."
"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Liao Yuan said in a hoarse voice.
Soon, as media reporters and audience members entered and took their seats one by one, the entire venue gradually became overcrowded. All kinds of noises and noises came one after another. Many fans of well-known UP hosts even pulled out banners, support flags and other items, and shook them vigorously.
.
But when the host walked onto the stage, the scene fell into silence.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the paradise of the piano world. The preliminaries of the 3rd One Emperor and Four Emperors International Piano Competition will officially begin today..."
After the host introduced some prospects and rules of the competition, he quickly introduced the sponsors, sponsors, partners and other sponsors.
Then the first round of qualifying began, the group match, which was a two-on-one matchup.
All the works on stage require four hands to play together.
There are a total of twelve pieces of music, all of which are about level 5 or 6 in difficulty, and some will exceed level 8. The organizer uses a computer program to randomly select and match them to the contestants in the group competition. Then each group of contestants will perform a live sight-reading based on the music score.
.
The so-called sight-reading, to put it simply, means that after a player gets a new score, he can play it smoothly in the first place with almost no practice.
This has certain requirements for the player's skills. This rule can basically screen out half of the mediocre players.
Although it is an original piano competition, the organizer still attaches great importance to the piano skills of the performers, so they set up roadblocks in the first preliminary round to test the piano skills.
"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan."
Sitting next to the contestants' bench, Fu Xiaoci touched Liao Yuan with her elbow and signaled: "Did you see, that area is full of your fans."
When Liao Yuan heard this, he followed Fu Xiaoci's line of sight, turned around, and saw a red flag waving in the auditorium, with eight big characters printed on it: "J can't stand, and will accompany A until he grows old!"
