Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 332 33. Government Sponsored Study Abroad?Judges Acceptance Notes
Government-sponsored study abroad?

Hearing these four words, Li An was haunted by various emotions.

From graduating from university to now, he discovered for the first time that his dream can be so close to him.

It's just that this dream is already in the past tense.

After hearing Wei Sanwan explain the ins and outs of the whole matter, he hardly hesitated and made a choice.

"Teacher, I don't have this idea for now."
-
10 minutes ago.

As Wei Sanwan said, because of Li An's outstanding performance in this year's Xinghai Cup, he won an award for the academy. As a reward, the academy planned to arrange a special quota for him in the selection work of the government-sponsored study abroad program in the new year.

Speaking of which, just a few days ago, the person in charge of the postgraduate training office of Rongyuan made a phone call to Lao Wei in person, and conveyed the meaning of the leaders of the compound——If Li An is interested, he must start making preparations as soon as possible. .

Partner institution, Leipzig Academy of Music, study program, master's degree, 24 months.

"Kern is a senior Depai master, and his fame and strength are internationally recognized. I went to Leipzig to study with him for two years. I think it will bring a lot of improvement to your performance and teaching."

Wei Sanwan thinks this is a good opportunity.

In his opinion, Ang Lee is 26 this year, and he will only be 28 when he comes back two years later. He will not delay anything, and he has learned something and got a diploma.

In the long run, he would like to suggest that Ang Lee simply take this opportunity to spend another two to three years to get back his doctoral degree. At that time, Ang Lee's choice of employment platforms and opportunities will More.

But in the final analysis, it depends on how Li An thinks about it.

"What do you think?" Wei Sanwan asked.

After a while, he laughed, "Tell me, there is no one else here."

Li An smiled wryly. At first glance, this sounded like a good thing. In the past, he had no reason to hesitate to study abroad at public expense. This was something he would never have dreamed of.

But now, the rhythm of his life has been embedded in the right track, and everything is developing in the direction he expected, with vigorous momentum and momentum.

If he chooses this time to study abroad, it means that he has voluntarily given up everything he had before.

Instead of asking yourself, do you really not delay anything?Instead, ask yourself what is the purpose of studying abroad now.

Going abroad before was more like an obsession for him, as if only by going abroad can he understand some problems.

But now, after the various people and things he met in the past six months, he feels that he probably hasn't figured out what problems he wanted to go out to figure out.

Piano is indeed a complex subject.

After listening to the scene of Lin Youyou and Lin Pengfei, and also seeing the background of the attached primary school, the graduate student still chose Wu Fusheng who stayed in China.

These people seem to be using actions to remind him of one thing, before going abroad, please clarify your goals.

So on second thought - figuring out what a piano really is - it's more of a slogan.

"Teacher, I don't have this idea for now."

Li An shyly rejected the academy's kindness, and he accepted it.

After hearing Li An's thoughts, Wei Sanwan didn't persuade him any more.

He thinks Ang Lee's idea is also reasonable.

It's good to have an idea.

Let Li An follow his own ideas, "Let's not talk about it, let's go out quickly."
-
Ten minutes later, the teacher and the student came from the kitchen to the living room with the chopping board and stuffing pot in their arms.

In the living room, Liang Huilan and Chen Xuan who were chatting sat up from the sofa at the same time.

Liang Huilan: "Xiao Chen, sit down."

Chen Xuan: "Master, please sit down, and you can tell me what you need to do."

Li An's eyes signaled Chen Xuan to arrange the cold dishes on the dinner table, so that he could place the chopping board, "Miss, you can just sit down, Chen Xuan will roll the skins and I will make them soon."

He said here that Chen Xuan had cleared the dining table to an open space, he put down the chopping board and took the dumpling stuffing in Wei Sanwan's hand, "Teacher, you can sit down quickly, you have been busy all afternoon, and you can do the rest of the work." Never mind."

I went to wash my hands with Chen Xuan, and then started making dumplings when I came back.

The old couple didn't know that Li An was so good at making dumplings. They were going to help, but after watching for a while, they found that they couldn't do it at all. In less than 2 minutes, the two of them had already made ten dumplings.

When Wei Sanwan saw this situation, it was really unnecessary for them to intervene, and he said cheerfully, "OK, then we don't care about your two bags."

As he said that, he looked at Chen Xuan, "Xiao Chen, let's fill up the chopsticks again today, and we'll call you, Teacher Hao, to have a lively time together."

In the kitchen just now, Wei Sanwan was discussing with Li An, saying that he wanted to call Lao Hao up to have this meal together.

Li An didn't expect the teacher to talk to Chen Xuan tape so specifically, "You can just call me, and leave us alone."

Chen Xuan didn't know what was going on, so she stopped her hands and raised her head to follow Li An with a smile, "It's all under the teacher's arrangement."

Wei Sanwan grinned, turned and left.

Here Liang Huilan sighed.

Professor Hao is very pitiful, his wife passed away last year, and before this year is over, his son's family has already returned to other places. This is not the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and only the old man is left at home.

Ang Lee: "Let's find another one."

Chen Xuan:? ?

Liang Huilan: "Hey, don't mention it."

On the side, Lin Guoguo was practicing the piano, listening to gossip, and peeking at Li An from the corner of her eye. She made a new discovery, she found that this uncle's hands are really dexterous.

suddenly.

"Guoguo, wrong pronunciation."

Lin Guoguo was taken aback for a moment, and she made a new discovery.
-
After 10 minutes, two batches of dumplings are wrapped and put into the pot.

Before dinner, Wei Sanwan took Lao Hao upstairs, and Lao Hao carried two bottles of liquor in his hand.

Six people, five, one, and one, sat around the dinner table, and started this slightly raw but yet warm reunion dinner.

"Teacher Hao, this cup is a respect to you."

As soon as the dinner started, Li An took the initiative to toast Lao Hao first.

Lao Hao didn’t feel that there was any day as lively as it is today during the New Year’s Eve. He picked up his glass and happily bumped into Li An, “I heard from your teacher, your brat’s drinking capacity has been improved now.”

Before Li An could speak, Wei Sanwan proudly said, "As far as his current level is concerned, drinking two of you is not a problem."

Old Hao laughed: "It seems that I have not brought enough wine today."

Li An smiled wryly, is two bottles less for three people?

"Drink less and eat more."

Liang Huilan interjected, "Try it while it's hot, Lao Hao, try this dumpling, made by Li An and Xiao Chen."

When Old Hao heard this, Li immediately picked up a dumpling and looked it up in front of his eyes for a moment, "It's so pretty."

Then he took a bite and tasted it for a while, "Today's stuffing is definitely not made by Lao Wei."

"Otherwise it wouldn't be so delicious."

Wei Sanwan immediately stared: "Put down the chopsticks for me."

Old Hao looked at Lin Guoguo, smiled and said, "Look, your grandpa is in a hurry again."

Lin Guoguo giggled non-stop when provoked.

Seeing Wei Sanwan's helpless expression, everyone laughed.

It can be seen that the relationship between the two brothers is really good.

Joined the job in the same year, got married in the same year, and lived upstairs and downstairs for most of his life. Although one is now the head of the piano department, and the other is nearing retirement, he has not touched an official job, but among the current professors in the orchestral department, Lao Hao is The most experienced one.

"Teacher Hao, is it okay for our orchestra to recruit students this year?"

After drinking for three rounds, Li An asked a question on the phone.

Lao Hao replied: "It's okay in the province, but not outside the province this year. Almost no one signed up for copper pipes."

Wei Sanwan took over the words: "Practicing brass pipes is hard, now who is willing to let children suffer such hardships."

Li An followed suit and nodded. He was about to ask more specific questions about the recruitment situation outside the province. Old Hao turned his attention to Chen Xuan and asked:
"Xiao Chen is studying wind music, right?"

Chen Xuan was concentrating on the background board. She didn't expect that Teacher Hao would bring the topic to herself, and guessed that she was studying wind music. She nodded curiously, "How did you find out?"

Old Hao smiled: "It feels like a flute player, right?"

Even Li An was a little surprised this time, can you feel it?

Seeing this, Chen Xuan generously reported her family name.

"Oh? Who did you learn the flute from?"

Hearing that Chen Xuan graduated from Huayuan, Old Hao asked another question.

"Xiao Hongxia, Teacher Xiao." Chen Xuan replied respectfully.

Hearing Xiao Hongxia's name, old Hao Xin said sure enough, put down his chopsticks, and said in a slightly reminiscent tone, "Is she in good health now?"

"It's pretty good," Chen Xuan heard something in the words, "Do you know Mr. Xiao?"

Old Hao nodded, "Your Teacher Xiao and I are college classmates."

Chen Xuan suddenly became interested, and while toasting, she asked Teacher Hao about her story about Teacher Xiao when she was in college.
-
Here, Wei Sanwan and Li An, master and apprentice, were not idle either, everyone chatted about their own affairs.

Although Wei Sanwan felt a little regretful that Li An gave up the opportunity to study abroad on a government sponsorship, he respected Li An's choice.

But apart from this matter today, there was another good thing he wanted to inform Li An, and he guessed that Li An would not refuse this matter.

"It's time to hold the Rongcheng Cup again, do you want to participate?"

This?
Li An thought for a while: "Forget it, teacher, I don't need to participate in this competition anymore."

No matter from which point of view, today's games of this size don't have much value for him to participate in.

Wei Sanwan hummed, "What if I let you be the judge?"

ha?
Li An was dumbfounded, the co-author didn't allow himself to participate in this competition as a player.

Li An would definitely be willing to be a judge of the Rongcheng Cup Piano Competition, which would increase his reputation and increase his experience.

But he had to ask first which group he was asked to be a judge for. He knew that the Rongcheng Cup was divided into youth group and juvenile group.

Wei Sanwan: "Youth group."

Ang Lee: "What's the specific game time?"

Wei Sanwan: "In mid-April, the specific schedule will be out soon. If you are willing to go, I will report your name, and someone from the organizer will contact you at that time."

Ang Lee toasted with a glass: "Thank you teacher."

Wei Sanwan smiled: "Do it well."

Every year at this time, Wei Sanwan will receive calls from the organizers of various piano competitions. These people know that Wei Sanwan will not be a judge, but they still have to make this call.

We understand if you don't come, just recommend some judges to us.

Last year, Wei Sanwan recommended Huo Xiaodong for the Rongcheng Cup. This year, he plans to recommend Li An.

The difference is that Huo Xiaodong served as a judge for the youth group last year.

After comprehensive consideration, he believes that Ang Lee does not yet have the objective conditions to be qualified for the judging work of the youth group.

Then Li An and Wei Sanwan asked about how to do judging work for the youth piano competition, some teaching problems he encountered in the past two days.

Regarding whether every child should have a solid grasp of the basic playing, Wei Sanwan's answer is similar to his current thinking.

In short, teach students in accordance with their aptitude.

"Summarize more and think more."

Wei Sanwan was very satisfied with Ang Lee's attitude towards piano teaching, "If you have any teaching problems in the future, bring them up and let's discuss them together."

After the meal, Chen Xuan took out the red envelope she had prepared and handed it to Lin Guoguo.

Wei Sanwan and Liang Huilan and his wife can also sigh at this.

Wei Sanwan called Lin Guoguo to Li An, and asked Lin Guoguo, "Would you like to let you learn piano with Teacher Li in the future?"

Lin Guoguo can observe clearly after a meal, this handsome uncle is amazing!
"I am willing!"

Seeing that Lin Guoguo agreed so happily and simply, Wei Sanwan smiled inwardly as long as it wasn't taught by me.

Then he looked at Li An again.

Li An was still a bit scrupulous, he was afraid that he would not be able to teach well, but this matter could not allow him to refuse.

He looked at Lin Guoguo, "Guoguo, these two Hanons are the homework for this week. I'll check them in class next week."

Lin Guoguo was still a little happy just now, but when she heard the words homework and check, she sighed slightly in a blink of an eye, and her well-behaved and slightly sad appearance made several adults laugh along with her.

Among them, the happiest is of course Wei Sanwan.

This day's reunion dinner, Lao Wei really enjoyed it.

In the following time, Li An asked Wei Sanwan about Lin Guoguo's current piano learning progress.

After figuring out the specific situation of Lin Guoguo, he plans to go back and make a teaching plan for Lin Guoguo for Wei Sanwan to review first.

Wei Sanwan shook his head: "It's up to you to make the decision, how to teach, you just do it according to your own ideas, I don't care."

Ang Lee: "."

Wei Sanwan: "The other class time, you can decide according to your situation, make a decision and tell me, when the time comes, we will take her to your class."

Li An hurriedly waved his hands: "Teacher, this is unnecessary."

Liang Huilan interrupted: "An An, listen to him."

Seeing this, Li An no longer declined. In fact, judging from an objective point of view, what Teacher Wei did was right.

"Listen to Master, let's tentatively set Sunday afternoon, teacher, can you watch at two o'clock?"

Wei Sanwan: "That's it."
-
When I got home after dinner, Li An and Chen Xuan each called home. Fifteen, since no one is at home, a phone call is the right thing to do.
Li An returned to the living room after making the phone call, and Chen Xuan also came out of the bedroom after a while.

"What's wrong?" She leaned closer and asked in concern.

After leaving Teacher Wei's house, she found that Li An was preoccupied, "Is it a lot of pressure to be a judge?"

Li An smiled, there was nothing to hide, and then he gave Chen Xuan a general account of the government-sponsored study abroad.

Chen Xuan didn't expect that they would have such a show before dinner, and immediately didn't know what to say.

Then he walked over and sat next to Li An, holding his hand.

To tell the truth, when Li An mentioned the government-sponsored study abroad, her heart seemed to be covered with grass for a moment. If Li An chose to go, the two of them would face a two-year foreign relationship.

But when Li An said that she didn't plan to go, she didn't seem so relaxed, because she knew how rare this opportunity was for Li An.

She picked up her mobile phone and checked the official website of Rongcheng Conservatory of Music, and found the public study abroad program mentioned by Li An under the page of the International Cooperation and Exchange Office.

"The content of the funding is generally a round-trip international travel fee and a scholarship within the funding period, including food, accommodation, registration, transportation, telephone, books and materials, medical insurance, communication, one-time placement fees, and visa extension. Fees, pocket fees, and academic activity grants, etc.”

meal.

"Really don't think about it?"

Li An hugged Chen Xuan backhandedly: "If it were you, given such an opportunity right now, would you choose to go?"

Chen Xuan thought for a while: "No."

Li An smiled: "You really don't think about it?"

Chen Xuan thought about it again: "If we can go together, I will consider it."

There was nothing to say for a while, maybe the two of them were thinking about the same question.

Will they have the opportunity to go out together to complete the study abroad in the future.

Li An couldn't help recalling the story Sun Yuman told him again in his mind. In fact, looking at it now, Chen Xuan's obsession with going abroad has always been deeper than his own.

"Xiaomi, why did you want to go abroad so much at that time, was it just to further your musical skills?"

moment.

"Maybe I want to experience life in a different cultural background."

Speaking of which, Chen Xuan crossed out the web page on the phone page and opened Taobao.

"What do you think of the colors of the two curtains I chose? Does it match the study room?"

Chen Xuan really likes all kinds of life experiences, just like everything she does with Ang Lee makes her feel alive.

　Thank you for your concern, the fever has subsided a little.
