Tang Feng: "Let's talk about the Chopin Competition first, huh?"
Qin Jian: "No problem."
Tang Feng: "What do you think of the Chopin Competition?"
Qin Jian: "The Chopin Competition is a high-standard competition. Among all piano competitions in the world, there is no more professional piano competition than it."
Tang Feng: "So what does the Chopin Competition mean to you?"
Qin Jian: "Competitions, all competitions are competitions to me. Different from preparing for a concert or an exam, competitions are competitions. I view competitions relatively purely."
Tang Feng: "So you care about winning or losing?"
Qin Jian: "I don't think any player cares about winning or losing. It's just that everyone has different goals before the game. Some people hope to advance to the second round, and some hope to enter the finals."
Tang Feng: "What is your goal before the game?"
Qin Jian: "Win the championship."
Tang Feng: "Assuming you are not the final champion, will you cheer for the winner?"
Qin Jian: "Of course, it's one thing that I didn't win the championship, it's another thing that someone else won the championship. These are two different things."
Tang Feng: "Have you ever thought that you would win the final championship?"
Qin Jian thought for a while: "To be precise, I probably didn't think about it before the game, but after the third round, I had a little hunch. After I finished playing the mazurka and stepped off the stage, I felt that I had found the feeling of the game.
.”
Tang Feng: "How does the game feel? Can you tell me in detail?"
Qin Jian: "I'm not sure about other people's situations. Personally, the feeling of the game is a state. This state will not bring any bonus to your playing skills, but it will improve your spirit."
Being in a state of excitement, this excitement will not only be reflected on the stage, but also include the period before preparing to go on stage."
"In the two days after the third round, my spirit remained in that state. At that time, I knew that my performance in the finals would be good."
"Until I finished all the performances in the finals, when I bowed in front of the audience and listened to the applause from the audience, I felt that I might have won."
"Perhaps every finalist will feel this way in that situation."
Tang Feng: "I understand that a champion will always emerge between you."
Qin Jian: "Yes, we have entered the finals. We are only one step away from the championship."
Tang Feng: "Indeed."
Tang Feng: "At the scene where the final results were announced, the organizing committee first announced that contestant Rachel had won the Concerto Award, and then announced that contestant Adams had also won the Concerto Award. I remember that the whole scene exploded.
But I noticed that your state is relatively calm, is that true?"
Qin Jian smiled and shook his head again.
Seeing this, Tang Feng couldn't help but become more curious: "Can you describe your mood at that time?"
Even recalling that scene at this moment, Qin Jian could still feel the chill on his back.
Tang Feng was not in a hurry, he was waiting for Qin Jian's answer.
moment.
Qin Jian: "At that time, I had to accept that result. There was no way around it. No matter how I felt, it would not have any impact on the result."
"According to past experience, winning the Concerto Grand Prize means winning the gold medal. I can't describe my mood at that time. I probably felt that I was already in the worst situation."
Tang Feng: "Did you give up then?"
Qin Jian: "I didn't give up because the final gold medal had not been announced yet. I thought I might still have a chance, because it was also the first time that two concerto awards appeared. No one could be sure that there would be no miracles later."
Tang Feng: "I still remember one scene very clearly. I don't know what the interaction was between you and Duan Ran at that time, but you made a face at her. I was quite shocked at the time. I can't imagine what kind of interaction there was between you and Duan Ran."
You can still make that kind of expression all the time, can you tell me the meaning of that expression?"
Qin Jian briefly recalled: "It doesn't have any special meaning. I know she wanted me to win, but in that case, most people thought the champion would be between Rachel and Adams. I think she thought so at the time.
, so I teased her when I saw she was about to cry. No matter what my result was, she won the Mazurka Award. I hope her expression in front of the camera would be happier."
Tang Feng smiled when he heard this. He originally wanted to go deeper into this issue, but considering some reasons, he finally just opened his mouth and moved on to the next topic.
Tang Feng: "Now everyone knows that you won the gold medal in this competition with the highest score in history. So aside from awards, what do you think is your biggest gain from this competition?"
Qin Jian: "It is difficult to define what the largest scope is. From my personal perspective, the biggest gain is that I have clarified the direction of future research on Chopin's music."
Tang Feng: "You used the word 'research', does this mean that you will devote yourself to studying Chopin's music in the future?"
Qin Jian: "Chopin is a lifelong subject for every piano player, but Chopin cannot represent the entire piano."
Tang Feng: "Many people think that winning Xiao Sai's award will be a problem to a certain extent for a pianist, such as Pollini and Bunin. Although they play a wide range of repertoire, when they are mentioned, people
They are always labeled as 'Chopin experts', what do you think of this issue?"
Qin Jian: "Objectively speaking, pianists who win prizes in the Chopin Competition usually have unusual resonances with Chopin's works, but this does not mean that they only focus on Chopin's works."
"Pollini was a versatile performer who could translate works from any period into the era we live in."
"His insight into music even exceeds the music itself. He belongs to the category that is beyond ordinary people."
Tang Fengxiao: "Do you want to be a pianist like Pollini?"
Qin Jian: "I haven't considered this issue yet. Let's take a look at the results of the next stage."
Tang Feng: "The next stage?"
Qin Jian: "In the next two years, I will shift my attention to works from the classicism and baroque periods, which I am currently lacking."
Tang Feng: "Looking forward to it."
Qin Jian: "Thank you."
Tang Feng: "Many netizens are curious about what you are like in life. Apart from practicing piano and rehearsing every day after leaving the stage, do you have any other hobbies in life?"
Qin Jian hummed: "If you like it, does listening to music count?"
Even the camera guy was happy.
Tang Feng: "Besides music, what about sports, food, or watching movies on weekends?"
Qin Jian: "Well——"
This question really stumped him.
Qin Jian: "For more than a year, I have either been preparing for games or on the way to games. I rarely have any real rest time. When I do have time, I just sleep more in bed."
Tang Feng was unwilling to give in, and wanted to dig out some information: "So, suppose you have a day off now, and this day has nothing to do with music, what would you choose to do?"
Qin Jian smiled unkindly: "I will accept your interview."
