Nine hundred and fiftieth IX everything goes well(1/2)
A group of people took to the street, and Yang Jingxing knew the way better and took everyone in the direction of the church and museum. Professor Wei recalled the first time he came to the United States more than ten years ago and started patriotic education. The changes in capitalism are really
It's not big, but Puhai is earth-shaking.
From a music perspective, in the 1980s and 1990s, many musicians who had achieved brilliant results in China through hard work and hard work rushed across the ocean, hoping to make a career in the Western world. But in the end, most of them
They were all ruthlessly drowned out and made no sound. Looking back today, Professor Wei used Yu Xinting as an example. She has not achieved many achievements in China, but when she comes out, she is impressive and orderly.
Let’s look at this visit to Julia again. Professor Wei told everyone that Julia has done enough homework and is the front page headline on the school website. She attaches great importance to all aspects. And if Julia hadn’t gone to Pudong first.
If Hai shows his kindness, the department may not be interested in coming over... Pu Yin's status is different because the status of his motherland is different.
The junior brother asked Yang Jingxing if he had any questions. How does the senior brother view the role of music as a global language? In the new form and new environment, what choices should the younger generation make and what direction should they strive for?
Yang Jingxing’s answer is quite simple: take into account all factors and do what you should do and what you like to do.”
This is too general. Junior brothers and sisters still hope that Yang Jingxing will use himself as an example to explain how to choose and determine what should be done and what he likes to do?
The teacher from the Communication Office criticized the students, saying that Yang Jingxing didn't have much reference for everyone, and the starting point was different... Professor Wei also taught the students that Yang Jingxing was thinking about school and music career, and everyone just thought about how to practice the piano well.
After walking around for a few blocks, we gathered back at the hotel and were ready to go out for dinner. We could also call China to report that we were safe.
Lu Kaiping once again emphasized that everyone should pay attention to etiquette and make jokes. Yu Xinting is willing to entertain everyone. She is an artist in New York who may be recognized by passers-by.
Yu Xinting humbly said that she had never experienced this before, but Yang Jingxing heard Kong Chenhe say that this girl had already had such an experience twice, but it was just being recognized or suspected, and others did not realize how great a person Yu Xinting was.
.This is New York, full of international superstars.
The restaurant is not far away, about ten minutes' walk away. The environment is not bad, but it is not a place where you need to dress carefully. Yu Xinting's group of sixteen people is almost one-third of the restaurant's maximum capacity. The restaurant manager still takes it seriously.
He gave a warm welcome, introduced the guidelines, and asked Yu Xinting if she was satisfied.
Yu Xinting seems to have more temperament when communicating with foreigners. She has the consciousness that customers are God, she is also polite, and she is kind to teachers and classmates.
Puyinren's private dining room has half the effect. A large semicircular sofa with its back against the wall and four small tables in front of it can seat eight people. There are also two tables in front of the semicircle, which can seat four guests respectively. It is very suitable.
Although they said they were sitting casually, Yu Xinting was definitely accompanying Li Yingzhen, and Kong Chenhe was of course also at the same table. Everyone seemed to think that the other seat belonged to Yang Jingxing, and Lu Kaiping even urged him to sit there.
Yang Jingxing probably thought it would be better for four women to sit at a table, so he asked his junior sister to come over.
Junior sister humbly said: "Senior brother, please sit down."
"Hurry up." Yang Jingxing sounded like an order.
Kong Chenhe also greeted his junior sister: "Come on..."
The restaurant also prepared a simple Chinese menu, and the waiter greeted you well. Li Yingzhen also rarely greeted everyone: "Teachers and classmates, you're welcome. Eat and drink."
Yu Xinting also gave it a try: "...I haven't arranged it well...I don't know if the professors can get used to it."
Everyone said that Yu Xinting was so polite, the arrangements were so good, and the menu looked very appetizing.
No one was polite, the professors were familiar with the situation, and the students did not show any timidity. The teacher also encouraged the students to drink some red wine, eat and drink enough, have a good rest at night, and perform well tomorrow.
However, there were only two waiters in charge of the sixteen people. Although the chef came, he did not make any achievements and only delayed the serving time. However, everyone was not in a hurry. They chatted and felt the atmosphere under the warm lights and jazz music.
.
Lu Kaiping called on everyone to do as the locals do and have some pre-dinner drinks. Of course, he has something to say. As the head of the department, I am very grateful to the professors for their support in their hard work. I am also grateful to the students for the honor that their hard work has brought to the department. Especially the students, they must
We must continue to work hard: "... strive to have more Yu Xinting, and strive to have people treat us to dinner when we travel around the world. On behalf of everyone, I thank Xinting and wish Xinting a prosperous career."
Lu Kaiping had been chattering for so long, but Yu Xinting was already ready: "Thank you, Director Lu, for your encouragement. I also wish all the professors and classmates... everything goes well."
Although I paid attention to the etiquette, the meal was quite lively and happy. Yang Jingxing and Yu Xinting were relatively far apart, so zero communication between the two was not a problem. In addition, Yang Jingxing was still a bit noisy.
He ate a lot, so no one should have noticed anything unusual.
It was almost nine o'clock when I was about to leave. Of course it was Yu Xinting who paid the bill, which was quite long. Yu Xinting was very skillful and asked the two waiters their names and signed tips respectively. The waiter thanked her happily after taking the bill and credit card.
A group of Chinese guests were sent out of the restaurant. They were all well-fed, but they were still so full at such a late hour that they wanted to take a walk to digest. However, everyone suggested that Yu Xinting should go home early, and they all became concerned about where she was staying, how far away it was, and what the environment was like.
Sample.
Yu Xinting still walked with everyone back to the hotel, and then everyone watched as she got into a taxi and waved goodbye.
The teachers congratulated Li Yingzhen one after another. Another student has achieved success. This meal must be more than a thousand dollars. Kong Chenhe also said that Yu Xinting plans to buy a car within the year after getting her driver's license... A living and inspiring example is in front of us. All students, please cheer up.
ah.
Yang Jingxing sent Li Yingzhen back to the room, and the teacher and student chatted for a while. Li Yingzhen said that she had talked with Yu Xinting in the afternoon, and the teacher was a little angry, saying that Yu Xinting now has some of Yang Jingxing's bad morals, a stubborn scoundrel and a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, but
He's not as playful as Yang Jingxing and can quibble.
Yang Jingxing still advised the teacher not to worry too much. Yu Xinting was already an independent girl: "...you can coax Yiyi now. I can't see you these days, Yiyi will definitely miss you."
Li Yingzhen didn't believe it: "Miss me? Miss no one. It's best if I don't go home!"
Yang Jingxing laughed and begged for a beating: "Look, you are still angry..." He advised the teacher to go to bed early and call home tomorrow morning to have a word with Yiyi.
The Puyin team arrived at the Juilliard School before nine o'clock the next morning. Yemima led her team to greet them. Although there was no grand ceremony, they were very cordial and friendly with each other. Kong Chenhe deserves praise,
As a peripheral staff member, I work well with the school staff.
Today's plan is for the teachers to have a meeting to talk about business, while the students will visit and experience it, and can choose to audit some courses. Yang Jingxing is special and will attend the meeting, because the future cooperation plan of the piano departments of the two schools will be discussed in more detail today.
There were more than ten people in the conference room, and they were all enjoying themselves at first, but gradually you will find that the differences in values between China and the United States are quite big. For example, the Chinese strive to be harmonious and make money, while the Americans are a bit self-centered, which makes it clear.
He regarded Pu Yin as someone asking for help.
Puyin is also well-prepared. Let’s talk about domestic and international data. China is now a rapidly growing music market, and China’s music industry is also more actively contributing to world music and art than before. Ten years ago, the world
Major orchestras rarely go to China to perform, and performers don't care about Chinese music fans. Ten years ago, except for a few first-tier cities, there were almost no decent concert halls in China. Now they are springing up like mushrooms after a rain.
It usually pops up... This is the general environment.
On a side note, the Puyin Piano Department, with teachers from the International Exchange Office boasting without shame, not only has a long and glorious history, but also has a bright and bright future. In fact, the Puyin Piano Department has been developing by leaps and bounds in the past two years, no matter what
Whether it is an academic achievement or an educational achievement, there are a series of promising plans. Not only the older generation of senior piano educators, but also the new generation of outstanding young teachers are being trained with a global perspective.
There is also a teacher in the communication office who has two brushes. He is fluent in English and has strong momentum. He said that so many people have asked the same question and listed a long list of famous names, including the distinguished Professor Yemima who is here today.
, they all asked: "...Why is Yang Jingxing not a world-famous performer? The answer is here, because he will always be committed to developing the educational career of Puhai Conservatory of Music and do his best..."
Yang Jingxing couldn't go against his alma mater. He didn't blush and nodded in agreement. However, he also knew that he was only learning from the seniors here. Music cannot be separated from education, and education cannot be separated from open exchanges and communication, and even resource sharing.
.
Generally speaking, musicians are still much more elegant and generous than politicians or businessmen, and several Juilliard people who went to Puyin, including Yemima, are indeed sincere in wanting to establish a cooperative relationship.
There are so many things to talk about in one morning. Lunch is arranged in the school cafeteria, and the teachers and students are the same. The teachers and students met in the cafeteria. It seemed that several Puyin students had a very happy morning. Julia was still
There are many compatriot students, five or six of them have come now, showing their closeness to the compatriots from the motherland. Everyone socializes before eating. This cafeteria is more like a coffee shop.
Both students are Chinese, but there is a big gap between Pu Yin and Juilliard. Many Juilliard students are already idols to their peers. There are violin or piano students who have signed with an agency, and some
There are those who studied composition and have published works even when they are younger than Yang Jingxing and even collaborated with well-known orchestras. There are also those who have won various awards. There are those who studied vocal music and have performed important roles on stage at the Metropolitan Opera...
Not to mention the younger brothers and sisters, Yu Xinting has nothing to be proud of when she comes to Juilliard. Even Yang Jingxing has the honor to say thank you when his compatriots say they have read his works.
A girl with more Westernized makeup was more positive and introduced herself to Yang Jingxing: "... I heard my Chinese friends talk about you very early, last year or the year before, saying that you were very low-key. I didn't expect you to be so low-key. Last November
The month has come, hasn’t it? How come it’s silent and silent!”
Yang Jingxing: "I was in a hurry at the time, and I didn't expect that there would be a beautiful compatriot here."
The girl haha: "There is a more beautiful girl, I will introduce you tomorrow..."
Juilliard students are still much more confident. Unlike Puyin's younger brothers and sisters who try to be more outstanding and decent like Yang Jingxing, Juilliard's compatriots regard Yang Jingxing as their peer and peer, and they are very affectionate and remind them.
Yang Jingxing must be careful in his lecture the day after tomorrow. All the smiling faces in this school are not polite at all but show their seriousness. Many masters and famous teachers have suffered losses.
Compatriots told Yang Jingxing that generally speaking, even if they were great masters, they would come to school quietly and not make any noise, but this time the school's advertisement for Puyin was more exaggerated, focusing on Yang Jingxing, and there was even a saying in private: "
The saying "You are far, far away from a genius" is said to have been shouted out by "Professor Tongsha" of the Composition Department to the best students, telling them to take a good look at Yang Jingxing's works.
In addition, Yang Jingxing's piano recording was widely circulated in the school some time ago. Because it is illegal to talk about, no one knows where the source is. However, most people in the music school have listened to it, and it is a hot topic...
A boy who studied drama in school was very enthusiastic about his fellow villagers because he was from Puhai. He also saw through the virtues of the people in the music school and hit the nail on the head: "The more awesome you are, the more unconvinced they will be, and the more they will target you."
Only you will have a sense of accomplishment."
Yang Jingxing was shameless: "So I'm a bit of a public enemy? I just said it's weird." Looking around, this canteen is actually smaller than Pu Yin's, and not many people are observing him.
Junior Brother Puyin has confidence in his senior brother and reassures his compatriots: "...There is absolutely no rival in piano. It is not on the same level."
The compatriots were still a little worried. The live performance and the recording were two different concepts, so the people at Puyin laughed.
There were gradually more people in the cafeteria. The compatriots who were exchanging artistic achievements or opinions reminded Yang Jingxing that Professor Tongsha was here, accompanied by Yemima.
He was still a few meters away, and he wasn't sure that he was the one who came here. Yang Jingxing stood up, greeted him, and extended his hand first: "Professor Stamber, I'm glad to meet you. My name is Yang Jingxing." His reputation in the composition world is comparable.
He is much bigger.
The other party smiled and shook hands, a lean Caucasian man in his fifties who must have loved fitness. He didn't look like a composer, but he was polite: "I'm very happy, I hope I don't disturb you?"
Yang Jingxing and his compatriots said no, but Professor Tongsha was a bit pretentious. He looked at Yang Jingxing as if to comment: "So far, your composition is outstanding."
Yang Jingxing understood: "Thank you, I will work harder."
Professor Tongsha nodded, looking a little arrogant: "I'm looking forward to it...Wednesday, I will attend your lecture with my students, Yemima has agreed..."
Yang Jingxing nodded: "It's my pleasure."
Goodbye Professor Tongsha.
