The God of Conducting Starting from Absolute Pitch

Chapter 100: Full score, 10.0 points!
Although the last school was very reluctant, after Chen Qiu and others took the stage, they thought for a long time and finally chose to take the stage.

Even though almost 50% of the people present were gone, many seats were vacant.

But they didn't just give up.

Not only that, they also tried their best to perform at their best.

Although there may still be a certain gap in strength and the overall performance is not satisfactory, the audience still gave them the warmest applause to end the entire national competition.

At this time, everyone returned to their respective schools, waiting for the final results.

The whole competition was the National College Student Art Exhibition Competition, which was an official competition. Therefore, even though many people present were sure that the Haiyin 2nd Group would win the championship, the scores were not announced on the spot.

They need to verify and then report it up, and finally the certificates and honors will be sent back to their respective schools.

After all, they are representing the school, not themselves.

Even though in the school everyone might give this honor to the Haiyin Second Regiment, outside the school, everyone still thinks that this honor belongs to Haiyin.

Just like the group of commanders from other places are complaining over there now.

Everyone is complaining about Haiyin, not just Haiyin 2nd Group.

Chen Qiu and everyone in the Second Regiment naturally knew about this.

Chen Qiu and Professor Li Anguo, who was responsible for the overall itinerary planning, gave everyone a day off and asked everyone to wander around various places in the capital. After going around by themselves, they took everyone with them before six o'clock the next morning. I got on the first flight back to Haicheng from Beijing.

While sitting on the plane from Beijing to Haicheng, Chen Qiu had the most shocking breakfast in his history.

Old Beijing mutton stuffed with green onions and grilled.

It sounds like a biscuit, but when you open it, it turns out to be a hamburger?
There is a whole piece of mutton and green onion stuffed meatloaf sandwiched between the two pieces of bread, and there is actually a piece of cheese on top.

The overall taste does not feel like an ordinary in-flight box lunch. It tastes tasteless and boring. On the contrary, this burger, no, this old Beijing fire roast is delicious and even edible. You can taste the rich mutton flavor and the cumin flavor in the meat filling.

Although it was relatively small, it tasted quite good, and even made Chen Qiu have a slight aftertaste, and even wanted to have another one.

Of course, this was just a small thought. After Chen Qiu and everyone from the Haiyin Second Regiment got off the plane and set foot on the land of Haicheng again, he no longer had such thoughts and just wanted to return home as soon as possible. Get some sleep at home and have a good rest.

tired.

It's so tiring.

It's not that I'm tired because I got up after six o'clock in the morning to catch a flight, but that I was tired after participating in the national competition before, and my tense spirit finally relaxed, and all the fatigue before came to my mind.

Not only Chen Qiu, but also everyone else in the band.

In this regard, Professor Li had no intention of stopping everyone from continuing to lecture.

He just gathered everyone together, clicked their names again, and after confirming that everyone was there, including Rui Jia, who was often late, he waved his hand and asked everyone to disperse.

If you are in a hurry to go back, take the maglev and spend more money to go there.

If you're not in a hurry, just take the subway and go back slowly.

Anyway, he just has to think of a solution on his own. Now that his mission is over, the next step is to wait for the notification from the Ministry of Education.

Let's see what kind of results they can get in the end.

Everyone had no objections to this, and everyone formed their own small teams and slowly left from Jiangdong International Airport towards their respective destinations.

……

a few days later.

Haicheng Harmony Symphony Orchestra backstage.

Chen Qiu woke up from his bedroom, which was less than ten square meters. He brushed his teeth and rinsed his mouth as usual. Then, while making himself a cup of soy milk, he turned on the recorder on the side and played the music he had asked for from Professor Li. Listen to the recording of the national competition performance.

Listening to the recording in his ear, Chen Qiu nodded and sipped the soy milk in the cup with a leisurely expression.

The national competition has ended, and he has taken a long break in the past few days.

In addition to listening to their previous recordings and looking for loopholes in their band, my daily routine is to be in a daze, bask in the sun, sleep, and listen to recordings from top players.

Other than that, think about nothing and do nothing.

Just enjoy life and enjoy the music.

Such days were so leisurely that Chen Qiu thought he had retired.

Although I always feel guilty for wasting my life on this day, I have to say that such a day is really fun!

In addition, the school knew about their results in the national competition and was very satisfied with them, so there was almost nothing arranged for them.

Chen Qiu's life was more leisurely.

The only news that shocked Chen Qiu these days was that Fu Tiao, a student from his school, successfully won the championship of this year's Chopin International Piano Competition, and even won the best concerto.

This is a bit powerful.

The Chopin International Piano Competition, even if Chen Qiu studied conducting and didn't care about other industries that much, he almost knew that the Chopin International Piano Competition was one of the most valuable special piano competitions in the world.

Chen Qiu only led the team from the school's second team to win the national championship, and then he started running global competitions to win the global championship.

In addition to Fu Tiao, there is also a person on the clarinet side who won the grand prize in the world's top music competition.

Therefore, the school’s official public account published a post of double happiness, congratulating the teachers and students of our school for successfully winning medals at the international grand prix.

Chen Qiu was only slightly envious of this, but didn't think much about it.

After all, conducting is different from soloing.

Solo majors basically want to become famous as early as possible. After all, in addition to their understanding and consciousness of music, they also pay attention to the physical functions of the performers.

He is a bit like an e-sports player, very interested in age.

Unless your understanding of music and the growth of your consciousness can outweigh the decline of your physical functions, you are likely to fall into the situation of becoming famous when you are young, but hurting Zhongyong when you grow up.

This is not caused by your lack of practice. It depends more on your understanding and whether you can think deeper and more thoroughly.

The command industry is different. In fact, he does not particularly rely on so-called body functions.

After all, you are not dancing on stage. What do you need to do with such a strong body function? If you can show the effect you want, then that’s it. There is no need to practice standard command movements stroke by stroke. It has to be like a robot.

Compared with solo performance, conducting is actually more of a function that requires experience.

The older you get, the better you become. The older you get, the more skillful you will be in controlling music, and the better you will know what you want and what you don’t want.

This is the main reason why even in many conducting competitions, even though young conductors can win awards, there are no particularly young conductors who can serve as commanders of large groups.

Moreover, even if some conductors became famous at a young age, in interviews with latecomers, they actually do not think highly of becoming famous at a young age.

For example, conductor Bernard Haitink once mentioned it in an interview.

He believes that conducting is not a job particularly suitable for young people. Even though he started to perform with internationally renowned orchestras when he was very young, until now, every time he thinks about his youth, he still has trouble sleeping at night.

"How could a young boy with no life experience or musical experience be qualified for a role like a conductor? Although I survived, the media at that time was not as crazy as it is now, and I could still study my skills alone. Music, rather than being manipulated by the media, performs the image they want under the light of the media.”

Even he felt that those budding conductors in conducting competitions were not suitable to become conductors of top orchestras, let alone others.

For a conductor, the conducting competition is actually more like a competition for his rehearsal skills rather than a competition for his commanding ability.

A conductor requires not only his ability to rehearse, but also his control over the orchestra and his shaping of the orchestra.

This cannot be seen in a few days.

Therefore, even if Chen Qiu was given a chance to participate in a global conducting competition, he would not choose to participate.

For him, participating in this kind of competition has no meaning other than a waste of time. It's not even like one of those solo competitions where if you win you get picked up by an agency and go on a global tour and make a name for yourself around the world.

Even if you participate in the conducting competition and are favored by the brokerage company and sign a contract, it will be difficult for you to enter those top orchestras. Even assistant conductors in top orchestras may not be able to get into it. The brokerage company has no way to help you. .

For solo players, you can also book performance locations and designate global tour routes.

As for the symphony, they can't help you come up with a whole orchestra, right?

Even if you can negotiate with other orchestras and borrow their orchestra to perform once or twice, the audience will definitely come to see the orchestra, not you as the conductor.

What’s the difference between doing this and doing the same thing as Zhouzhou’s facial recognition across the country?
therefore.

Chen Qiu just took a look at the recent competition in the school, then put down his cell phone, walked to the desk with the soy milk in his hand, opened a notebook, and began to record the problems that had arisen during their previous performances.

[The people at the back of the first violin section made some serious mistakes in the fourth movement, and their understanding of the music is flawed. Although it can be covered up by the orchestra itself, there are still problems that need to be solved]

[Second violin section, the expression of the third movement is not soft enough, the mood is somewhat carried away by the wind instruments, the wind instruments need to be strengthened]

[The presentation of the whole wind instrument is not perfect. The bass part does not sink, the treble part does not rise, and the midrange is not transparent enough. Although it is enough, if you want to improve it, it is not enough.]

[The double bass group performed well, better than before, but it still lacks a sense of power]

[Qin Xian’s performance is excellent, but the expression of string music cannot be entirely relied on Qin Xian alone. There needs to be a second person who can share the burden with him, otherwise problems will easily arise]

Chen Qiu looked at the comment he had written for himself and reached out to pinch his eyebrows.

He made the judgment based on what he thought when he was the deputy conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic.

At the same time, he also used his absolute sense of pitch to hear more details in the music.

Listening to the details in his ears, Chen Qiu flopped down on the chair behind him, looked at the ceiling above his head, and couldn't help but feel stunned.

[The wind section lacks a person who can resist the tripod. If they continue to play like this, I feel that the wind section may become a very serious shortcoming in the second group, but... where should I find someone? Go to open recruitment from school? This is not good, it seems difficult to recruit people...]

[The copper pipe is fine, but the focus is on the wooden pipe. There is still a problem with the wooden pipe, and it often blows.]

[Qin Xian can still play the string section, but as Qin Xian gets stronger and stronger, I feel that the string section may not be able to keep up with Qin Xian’s pace, so there is a lack of someone to connect the previous and the following, the principal on the double bass side. Rui Jia also feels pretty good, but I'm not sure yet. 】

[The percussion section is reassuring. Ai Gu's performance is pretty good and his emotional expressions are in place. However, his partner, the other percussionist, feels a little absent-minded. 】

[Although it feels like there are problems up and down, but there is also a feeling that there is no problem up and down. What the hell? 】

Chen Qiu reviewed the configuration of the orchestra and found it a bit difficult to get started.

From the current point of view, it should be the best way to move forward with the orchestra, minimize the mistakes in the orchestra's performance, and enhance musical expression.

As long as the band can always show the feeling of the finals in the previous national competition, then even if their level does not increase, there will be no problem.

Chen Qiu listened to the music in his ears, stretched hard, and then lay down on the chair slightly tiredly to relax his mind.

Until his cell phone rang.

Ding!
Chen Qiu stretched out his hand and clicked on the call button without looking at it, then spoke directly.

"what's up?"

"Chen Qiu?"

Professor Li's rigid and meticulous voice came from the phone, and he spoke to Chen Qiu.

"Come to my office, the results of the national competition are out."

Chen Qiu's originally relaxed body stagnated, and then he jumped up from the chair, pulled on his huge down jacket, picked it up and spoke to Professor Li.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll be right back."

After that, Chen Qiu hung up the phone and ran out of the concert hall.

His concert hall is not far from the school. Although it is a little more than a kilometer away, this distance is actually within an acceptable range for Chen Qiu.

Including getting on the elevator and waiting for the red light, Chen Qiu ran to the door of Professor Li's office in less than 10 minutes.

Along the way, many people seemed to know the result and greeted Chen Qiu with a smile. Many people even called Chen Qiu "Brother Champion", but Chen Qiu had no intention of taking care of them. He just gave him a smile and walked towards the office. Run.

At the door of the office, Chen Qiu stopped and let his breathing become evener. Then he nodded, opened the door, and walked in.

There was a lot of noise in the room, mostly professors from various departments, as well as some vice presidents and the like.

They were discussing the results of Chen Qiu and others over there at this moment. The moment they saw Chen Qiu enter the door, they stopped their discussion and looked at Chen Qiu.

There is a lot of emotion in their eyes.

Surprised, curious, shocked, interesting...

The chaotic emotions gathered together, which gave Chen Qiu a big hint.

He knew very well that the results of their Haiyin Second Regiment this time were not simple.

Professor Li was obviously stunned when he saw Chen Qiu.

He raised his hand and glanced at his watch, then at Chen Qiu. He didn't expect Chen Qiu to come so quickly.

But he didn't say much, he just nodded to Chen Qiu and said.

"Chen Qiu, the results are out. There is no difference from what we expected. We are number one."

When Chen Qiu heard this result, his expression did not change at all, and he just nodded seriously.

"Well, I know. I have heard many people talking to us about this downstairs. They call me Brother Champion."

"Brother Champion? This name..." Professor Li frowned slightly, obviously feeling that this nickname was a bit hard to describe.

But he didn't say much. He just picked up the certificate in his hand and handed it to Chen Qiu for a look.

"This is the competition certificate. It will be put in the honor exhibition room in our school later. Do you want it? If you want it, then I can apply for a copy with the school and put it at your home. , As for the trophy, there is nothing we can do. After all, the trophy belongs to the team, and it is also the name of our school, so we cannot give it to you. As for the certificate... we will send one to each member of your team later. "

"Well, okay, thank you."

Chen Qiu nodded.

It was obvious that his thoughts were not on this.

He just looked at Professor Li, waiting for him to say the next thing.

Professor Li also knew very well what Chen Qiu wanted to know now.

Professor Li looked around at his colleagues, put away the documents in his hands, took out another notice from the side, handed it to Chen Qiu, and spoke slowly.

"Although it cannot be announced to the public, I got the internal score from the organizing committee. Chen Qiu, congratulations to you and your second group, you succeeded!"

Chen Qiu took the notice handed over by Professor Li and looked at the words on it, his pupils slightly dilated.

At this time, Professor Li's voice also sounded.

"Congratulations to you, you have successfully won the highest score in the history of the National College Student Art Competition, and it may also be the highest score for a long time in the future."

"Full score, 10.0 points!"

　Chapter 100, the protagonist gets 10.0 points, the fate is amazing!

　　Thanks to Little Pumpkin who loves reading 666 1500 X 3 for the reward

　　Thanks to Zhouzhoushang for the 1500 reward to Chen Qiu

　　Thanks huhuhuhuhuhu 1500 for tipping
