The entire opera house could accommodate 1200 people, and tonight, there were nearly 2,000 people. Many people did not have seats at all and just stood in the aisle, but they were still enjoying themselves.
As I said before, those who can get an invitation letter are definitely not ordinary people.
It could be said that they were all people who stood at the top of the social pyramid. Which of them didn't usually shout at others and live like royalty? Today, they were willing to stand for a few hours for this China-Japan piano exchange competition.
It could be seen that the talented pianist, Hidehide Hanazawa, was very attractive to the upper class.
This was very normal!
The piano had been created to serve the upper class from the very beginning. Then, it had influenced the ordinary people from top to bottom. In the eyes of ordinary people, what did the piano mean? It meant that he was cultured and of a higher class.
Many children from ordinary families were forced to learn the piano from an early age to cultivate their sentiments. The elite and cultural attributes of the piano were obvious.
Wei Dong was doing well, and he was one of the top people in City B.
The seats they had booked were in the first row. Qu Wanying had her own seat, but it was too far away, so she didn't go. Instead, she squeezed with Su Mu and Lu Rong. Su Mu was once again sandwiched between the two girls.
On the stage, the lights were bright, and in the center was a piano that had been flown in from the Golden Hall of Vienna.
There was a soft leather sofa at the back.
There were ten young people sitting on the sofa, ranging from 25 to 40 years old.
Lu Rong whispered into Su Mu's ear,""Xiao Buli, Zhang Muzhi, Su Ye…They are all the sons of heaven in our country's piano industry. Each of them has reached level 13, which is the master level. They are all qualified to teach in major music academies, especially that Xiao Buli. He's 36 years old and his piano attainments are the highest.”
Tsk, tonight's lineup was really big. All the best in the piano world were here.
Su Mu's lips curled up. He glanced around and saw that there was a judge's table and three executive chairs below the stage. He asked,"Didn't you say it was just an exchange competition? Why are there judges?”
Lu Rong was confused.
She didn't know, but Wei Dong shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. He hadn't heard of such an arrangement before.
Hidehide Hanazawa already had the strength of a grand pianist. Who was qualified to be his judge?
Besides, this was not a competition. It was just an exchange competition between talented pianists from China and Japan. Was there a need to be so formal?
At this moment.
A thirty-year-old middle-aged host appeared on the stage and bowed to the audience. He started the show in stiff Chinese.
Judging from his accent, he was actually a Wei Nation host.
"Welcome to tonight's China-Japan piano challenge. Tonight, the Chinese government will send ten of its most outstanding piano geniuses, and the country's genius pianist, Hidehide Hanazawa, will be the only representative of the country.”
"The fierce collision between geniuses will happen tonight. Between our country and the Tang Dynasty, who will be better? Let's wait and see!”
"Furthermore,"
"In the principle of fairness, publicity, and fairness, we have specially invited three heavyweight guests. They are the special pianist Mr. Huo Si and the vice president of the Vienna Music Association, Mr. Polkins…Please welcome them!”
Boom!
There was an uproar at the scene. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what had happened. Wasn't it just a simple piano exchange competition between China and Japan? How did it suddenly become a piano challenge between China and Japan?
Furthermore, it was ten talented pianists who challenged Hidehide Hanazawa. If they failed, what kind of heavy blow would this cause to the Chinese music industry?
F * ck!
Did the organizer's head get kicked by a donkey? Why would they do such a stupid thing?
Meanwhile, in the southeast corner, the organizer, the Hai City's piano association, was also dumbfounded. It was only after the Wei Nation emcee finished introducing the three judges that they finally reacted.
Liu Dayou, the president of the piano association of City B, was the first to rush onto the stage. He panicked and said,""You, you must have made a mistake. What China-Japan piano challenge? It was just an exchange competition.”
The Wei Nation emcee frowned and said into the microphone,""Mr. Liu Dayou, you were the one who proposed the challenge first. Why are you saying this now? Hidekun Hanazawa was regarded as a national treasure by the country. How could the country treat his reputation as a joke?”
The Wei Nation emcee looked like he had been wronged and said angrily,"Your Xiao Buli-Jun is also a level 15 pianist, and there are four others who were already level 14 two years ago. Could it be that you don't believe in the strength of our country's geniuses?”
"If you think that the ten most outstanding geniuses of your country can't defeat Hidekun Hanazawa, or even draw, then you can admit defeat. However, you must sincerely apologize to Hidekun Hanazawa and admit that your skills are inferior to mine!”
Liu Dayou was so angry that his face turned red, but he was speechless.
The Wei Nation emcee waved his hand, and the black curtain in the back corner was lifted.
After that, 30 to 40 media workers suddenly appeared, some from the Wei Nation, some from the Chinese government, and some Caucasians. They were from the music capital, Vienna TV Station.
"Do you know how much our country values this Challenger League? The live broadcast of the Tokyo TV station was being watched by the entire country. Not only the country, but the Golden Hall in Vienna would also be watching the live broadcast of the challenge.”
"Also, in your country, the two live streaming platforms, Shark and Panda, will also broadcast live online. At least 30 million viewers in your country will watch it online!”
"All the publicity has been broadcasted a few minutes ago. If you stop now, do you know how much loss it will cause? However, you still have the right to choose. You can admit defeat now!”
The Wei Nation host finished the story in one breath, and Liu Dayou's face turned pale. He straightened his neck and shouted,""Who said I was going to admit defeat! Let's compete then, do you really think that my genius is inferior to you devils!”
After saying that, he angrily left the stage.
He had been tricked!
The Hai City's piano association had invited Hidehide Hanazawa over to let the talented pianists of the country interact with him and gain experience. It would be best if they could gain some insights. However, they didn't expect that these d * mned Japanese had other plans.
No wonder, no wonder.
Ordinary people might not know that Hideki Hanazawa was a right-wing member of the Wei Nation, but those who knew him well knew that he hated women the most. He had never been involved in this before, but this time, he agreed to it without hesitation.
At that time, he should have thought that there was something strange about this.
Liu Dayou was annoyed. He regretted inviting this devil.
"Old Liu, what should we do now?”As soon as Liu Dayou left the stage, the big shots of the piano association surrounded him. They were all like ants on a hot pan.
"What else can we do?" Liu Dayou sighed. Since things have come to this, let's take it one step at a time. This group of devils has clearly planned this long ago and are waiting for us to take the bait.”
"We can't just admit defeat now. I can guarantee that as long as we admit defeat, this news will spread all over the world tomorrow, no, tonight. That will be a fatal blow to the piano industry.”
Someone nodded and said,"Old Liu is right." But if we lose, what face would we have in the piano world? 10, these 10 are all the best pianists in the country! If we lose this battle, the whole world will think that our pianists are not as good as the Wei Nation's pianists!!”
Liu Dayou sighed." Taking a step back is death, but there is still a possibility of living if we take a step forward. I hope Xiao Bu Li and the others can fight for this glory for us."”
"Sigh…"
"I hope so."
