878. Just say goodbye to the so-called official business
The reply Qin Jian got was——
"Of course it depends, including your planning, we need to conduct detailed research, but before that you may need to go to the Negroz Conservatory of Music in person."
It was not until the middle of the meal that the main topic was introduced.
Through Dorofia's explanation, Qin Jian understood the problem.
Only then did I understand why this work was in the Garden Library of the Negroz Conservatory of Music and not in the library of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory of Music.
Only then did I understand why Ruggiero dared to vouch for himself in the afternoon but did not explain the specific situation.
...
The final copyright of this work is indeed in the hands of the Tchaikovsky Conservatoire Publishing House.
The reason is that Negoz had previously given the copyright of this work to the Tchaikovsky Conservatory of Music.
This is correct.
And when the publishing house learned that Qin Jian wanted to introduce this work in China, no one raised even the slightest objection to it.
but.
but.
This is a professional academic work that provides an in-depth analysis of the development history of the four major Russian piano schools and the characteristics of each school.
Moreover, the author, Negoz himself, was not only one of the greatest Russian piano educators during the Soviet period, but also the founder of one of the schools.
This involves another issue -
Although Negoz has passed away, the Negoz sect still enjoys a great reputation on the world stage.
Carrying this reputation is the Negrze Music Academy.
In the school, which is less than one-fifth the size of Chaiyuan, Negoz is like a god in the minds of the older generation of the school.
One of the professors named Yegor is the third generation orthodox successor of the Negoz school.
Therefore, if Qin Jian wanted to take this work away smoothly, Ruggiero finally suggested: "You'd better go and meet him."
"A little personal advice, that old guy has a bit of a weird temper."
——
Returning to the hotel in the evening, Qin Jian thought about it and decided to pay a personal visit to Yegor, who Ruggiero called a weird old man, tomorrow. Even if he couldn't meet him, it didn't matter. He would go to the check-in spot first, since he was going to visit him anyway.
One week in Moscow.
Looking back on this visit, he also felt that it was indeed necessary.
In this circle, the issue of academic inheritance is very important.
Imagine that if Chris' teaching method was taken away, translated and published by a Russian without his consent, he would naturally stop doing it.
Since he decided to let this teaching method come out, he naturally didn't care what language it was translated into.
It's just a matter of method and process.
The next morning, as soon as Qin Jian left the hotel, he saw a large poster announcing that he was going to hold a concert posted on the gate of Chaiyuan next door.
When I walked in and took a look, I had to give it another thumbs up for language proficiency.
The concert introduction is full of words such as "talented" and "dazzling fingers", which makes people look forward to it.
Looking at the repertoire below, not only does the second half include the finale of Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1, but the first half also has a unique opening with four consecutive pieces by Xiao Lian, "Three Degrees of the Sea" in Torrent Black Keys.
There is also Polonaise and a set of mazurkas in the middle.
"Well, no matter how you look at it, this is a sincere track list."
Qin Jian imitated Duan Ran's tone of underestimation, then took a photo and sent it to him.
Within a few minutes, Zhou Kai appeared at the school gate.
The two then drove to the Negroz Conservatory of Music.
Before departure, Qin Jian brought the original literature and the old bartender's library card. After arriving at the Negoz Conservatory of Music, Qin Jian first went to the Garden Library.
Opening the glass door again, a gust of warm wind greeted him. Looking down at the wooden steps in front of him, Qin Jian couldn't help but sigh while holding the document.
He clearly remembered that when he left here last time with the documents in his arms, he had a premonition that something must have happened when he returned here again.
Looking back now, too much has happened. As far as he is concerned, the biggest change that has happened to him is that he has completely understood the four major schools.
"call."
After going down to the first floor, Qin Jian went down to the next floor without stopping and showed the old bartender's library card to the administrator.
The moment he handed the document back, a trace of reluctance suddenly arose in his heart.
Since this document came into his hands, it has witnessed too many moments with him.
Like sending an old friend home, he returned the set to the librarian.
After leaving, he didn't forget to call the old bartender to thank him, but the person who answered the phone was a professional female voice.
"Hello, big star."
Qin Jian laughed and said, "Where is the uncle?"
On the phone, Xie Meng stopped holding her voice and said with a smile: "The boss has gone to the bathroom."
"You are really working as his secretary."
Qin Jian recalled that at the luncheon on New Year's Day, the old bartender generously hired Xie Meng to be his personal secretary in front of his whole family. He still remembered the adoring expression on the fat man's face at that time.
"I think it's pretty good." Xie Meng said nonchalantly, "It's still in the learning stage anyway. You can always learn more from following the boss."
"That's good," Qin Jian nodded, "Forget it if he goes to the toilet. You can tell him the exact words for me later - thank you for your library card. Things are going well for me here. Next I have to visit a man named Ye Ge."
Your old man."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Kai was curious whose library card Qin Jian used to borrow the books on the second basement floor.
Having lived in Moscow for nearly nine years, he knew that not everyone could take a book away from the second basement floor of the Garden Library for more than a year.
"An old bartender who can play the drums, very good."
Zhou Kai thought about it for a moment, although he couldn't tell who this person was.
At least he excluded this person from among the famous teachers at the Negroz Conservatoire.
Along the way to the teaching building, two foreign students holding folders walked over.
Zhou Kai took the initiative to step forward and politely stated that he was a student who came to attend the class, and then politely asked the two of them if there were any open classes by Professor Yegor today.
One of them looked at his watch, then pointed to the teaching building and replied: "Classroom 204, there are still 5 minutes. I hope you can catch up. He will not let latecomers in."
Thank you to two students.
The two jogged all the way and finally rushed into the classroom at the third minute.
The classroom is not big, there is a small grand piano next to the blackboard, and there are about less than 20 students sitting under the podium.
Perhaps they were accustomed to strangers coming to Yegor's classes. At this moment, no one was curious about the two people who suddenly broke in, especially one of them wearing a mask and hat.
However, one student seemed to recognize Zhou Kai.
The two of them walked to the last row and just sat down. Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, a strange scene happened.
In the first row, a student suddenly stood up and left.
Then one student after another stood up and left.
Qin Jian heard a few whispers, which meant that there was no class today.
Out of curiosity, he took the initiative to ask. He didn't know why everyone left suddenly like this. A minute ago, he saw everyone preparing for class.
The classmate whom he asked shrugged his shoulders and acted like, "When I saw you, it was your first time here."
"Professor Yegor said that if he does not enter the classroom before class, it means that the class is over.
