The God of Conducting Starting from Absolute Pitch

Chapter 107 Li Tian, ​​exit!
After Professor Li and Chen Qiu chatted for a while, they quickly began to go back and make detailed corrections. After the corrections were completed, they took the plan to the school for approval, and then re-negotiated, adjusted, and revised it with other people.

The main issue now is not the merger of the two orchestras, but the handling of the relationship between the two orchestras after the merger and the resolution of subsequent conflicts if they arise.

Basically, the general direction has been set, and now comes the details.

The school has no objections to the fact that the Haicheng Conservatory of Music Student Symphony Orchestra and the Haicheng Conservatory of Music Student Symphony Orchestra II merged and were renamed Haicheng Conservatory of Music Harmony Symphony Orchestra.

Everyone thinks this is pretty good.

Even if some people thought that the name "Harmony" might be too closely related to Chen Qiu's small orchestra and the Harmony Symphony Orchestra, no one raised it directly.

After all, the school actually has its own ideas, such as possible cooperation with the Haicheng Harmony Symphony Orchestra in the future.

If Haicheng Harmony Symphony Orchestra can get up and take off, then Haicheng Harmony Symphony Orchestra can become their internship partner unit of Haicheng Conservatory of Music.

For example, when juniors like Qin Xian and others become seniors, most of them will choose to leave the orchestra, leave school, and start looking for internships in various places.

If Chen Qiu can have an internship unit, and if this internship orchestra is indeed somewhat famous in Haicheng, then he can indeed consider letting some students enter Chen Qiu's orchestra for internship.

Later, after graduation, we will see whether to continue studying for graduate school or directly join the orchestra and start a career in the orchestra.

Of course, these are all things for later. Chen Qiu's band has not yet been established, and overall it has no reputation. Chen Qiu's previous band has also been completely disbanded.

Therefore, Chen Qiu wanted the name of the band to be his family's name, which would be considered a good sale for the school. It would also increase some students' feelings for the school, which would not be a loss for the school.

After all, at the end of the day, this is just a student band. It doesn't matter whether its name is important or not.

Even though their name is Haiyin Harmony Student Symphony Orchestra, it does not affect the fact that it is recognized by many people as Haiyin's orchestra outside.

Since there is no mistaking it, it doesn't matter if the name is changed to the Harmony Symphony Orchestra.

Besides...

The name Harmony is actually quite nice and has a lot of meaning.

Just when the school started to deal with the details of the merger of the two groups, the news about the merger of the two groups had completely spread in Haiyin's forum and group.

Almost everyone is talking about it.

[Paganini I hate you: What do I rely on? Why did the first group and the second group suddenly merge? Do you know any inside information? For example, those who are close to the counselors? 】

[I don’t want to practice piano: The counselor doesn’t know about this either. It seems to be led by people from the Conducting Department and the Orchestra Department. Basically, only people at the professor level and vice president level can go in and watch. discuss. 】

[Have you practiced the piano today: I heard something when I sent documents to the teacher before. It is said that the two orchestras are completely merged to prepare for the nine-school league. 】

[I don’t want to practice the piano: @Have you practiced the piano today? No, it’s almost winter vacation. Why are you still practicing the piano? Please let me go, I want to drop out of school TAT]

[Have you practiced the piano today: Aren’t you preparing for the final exam? What about the return class concert? Do you think you are Qin Xian? 】

[I don’t want to practice piano: Damn, Qin Xian, Ma De, he told others every day that he wanted to drop out of school and didn’t want to learn classical music, but now he practices piano every day harder than anyone else, and then at the end of last semester When it comes to exams, you're not really a human being. You're really just talking about dropping out of school and doing it behind your back, right? 】

[Haiyin Niubi: What about Qin Xian? @QinXian, QinXian, do you know the inside information? 】

[I don’t want to practice piano: Will Qin Xian watch this group? I don't think I've ever seen him speak. 】

[Haiyin Niubi: I don’t know, I just @ randomly, it would be better if he can come out, but if he can’t come out...]

[Qin Xian: I can’t come? 】

After Qin Xian came out, the whole group almost exploded.

No one expected that Qin Xian would appear at this time.

The vast majority of people in this group are water buffs and play in the water group every day. Among the people who often hang out in the water group, there are not many people who are particularly awesome. Most of them are the kind of people who can't slip into the water. , and some ordinary poor students.

For example, many people in the Haiyin Second Group are in this group, and many of them are even Dragon Kings.

In fact, Qin Xian had just finished practicing the piano at this time, lay down on a chair to rest, and then opened the chat software to see if there was any news. As a result, he happened to see someone @ him, so he responded to those people. road.

[Qin Xian: I don’t know the specific situation. How about I help you ask Chen Qiu? 】

[Chen Qiu is the best in command in the world: OK, OK, ask Chen Qiu, I can’t wait to see Chen Qiu’s big speech! 】

[Haiyin Second Group is the best in the world: No, who are you upstairs? Damn it, you actually dare to compete with me for Chen Qiu’s number one dog licking spot? Let me tell you, without Chen Qiu and Qin Xian, I would not exist! I was born for Chen Qiu Qinxian! Mr. Qin Xian, I am your loyal licking dog! Shishashaha! 】

[Big Boss Qin Xian is unparalleled in the world: What is your identity and want to compete with me for Big Boss Qin Xian’s position as a dog licker? If you don't get out, I'll call the police! Let me tell you, the licking dog closest to Qin Xian’s feet is me! Don't any of you compete with me! 】

【…】

The corners of Qin Xian's mouth twitched, he scratched his head slightly in discomfort, closed the school group that had become a dog-licking group, and called Chen Qiu instead.

The phone rang three times and was answered, and Chen Qiu's gentle voice came over the phone.

He said to Qin Xian.

"Huh? Qin Xian? What's the matter? Why are you calling me at this time? Is there something professionally wrong? Is there something you still don't understand? I'll be free in 10 minutes. If you want to come, I can I'll give you an hour alone and we can discuss it."

"Discuss? I do have some questions..."

Qin Xian was stunned, and was led in by Chen Qiu before he could say anything.

He didn't think much and immediately stood up to pick up his sheet music.

But when he got up and walked to the music score, he suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to be here to ask Chen Qiu questions.

Therefore, he coughed twice slightly, and after breaking away from the train of thought he had just been led in by Chen Qiu, he said helplessly to Chen Qiu.

"But that's not why I came to see you today. I just wanted to ask you about the merger of our second regiment and our first regiment. Do you have any clues about that?"

"Yes, yes."

"No, then...ah? Yes?"

"Yes, yes, Professor Li took the lead in this matter, and then discussed it with me."

Chen Qiu didn't hide anything from Qin Xian and spoke directly.

"We may gather all the members of the first and second troupes together to form a large orchestra with more than a hundred people, and then the name will be called the Haicheng Conservatory of Music Harmony Student Symphony Orchestra. Now Li Teaching them is dealing with the nuts and bolts of implementation.”

"Professor Li?" Qin Xian was stunned for a moment, his brain unable to realize who Professor Li was. After all, he was not from the command department.

But Chen Qiu quickly added to him.

"Professor Li, that is Professor Li Anguo, the one who took us to the capital to participate in the national competition. You should have some impressions?"

"Um……"

After Qin Xian thought for a moment, he nodded and said.

"I have an impression that he doesn't like to laugh very much, is very serious, and talks straightforwardly? I feel very similar to Zhao Yi."

"Zhao Yi is not the same as him. Zhao Yi is very boring. He likes to keep a lot of things in his heart. He is not very good at talking. He is more boring than Professor Li."

"That's it..." Qin Xian nodded and said clearly, "Well, I understand, thank you."

"You're welcome. After all, we still need you to be the lead singer in the harmony orchestra."

Chen Qiu smiled at Qin Xian and said casually: "Not only you, but also your roommate, Zhao Xi, my arrangement is to let him be your assistant, one of you will be the first chief, and the other He is the second principal and jointly controls the entire string section, but the people on the wind section need to be changed. Many people cannot hold the position of principal and can only be given to people from the first group."

Qin Xian didn't have much idea about wind instruments, but when it came to string instruments, he was completely stunned.

He originally thought that after the merger of the first and second troupes, he would directly step down as the leader and become a part of the orchestra.

After all, although he likes the band very much, he prefers to hide behind alone and is relatively introverted.

But because Chen Qiu led him to become the chief, he couldn't be introverted and could only force himself to show more content.

Although the professional level is constantly improving.

But just how to say it...

It doesn't quite fit with his character.

So Qin Xian swallowed a mouthful of saliva and struggled to speak.

"Still, it's still me?"

"Well, it's you, remember to prepare well, don't lose the position of the second regiment when the time comes. You are the symbol of our second regiment!"

"Okay, okay..."

Qin Xian had no choice but to answer the call a few times and hang up the phone.

He looked at the violin in front of him, and the thought of taking a break was completely abandoned.

He clamped the violin firmly around his neck, with an expression as if he was ready to die, and started practicing directly with the bow.

No matter what, just do it!
Chen Qiu said that he believed in himself and that he was also the backbone of the band, so he would never collapse.

This is different from the previous teacher who forced me to practice new songs constantly and had no time to focus on the musicality.

Chen Qiu pays more attention to the expression of music, rather than blindly looking for new and difficult songs.

He feels more comfortable this way.

Therefore, he will not be as desperate as before and think about dropping out of school every day.

On the contrary, his eyes were full of hope. He looks forward to the day when the work in his hands will shine.

……

The group of people in the school saw that Qin Xian didn't reply to them for a long time, so they started licking Qin Xian and then started licking other big guys who showed up. Then they complimented everyone else that they were big guys and they were alone. Something like that.

Although Qin Xian didn't reply, they probably knew the school's plan.

The first and second regiments are really going to start merging, and it may happen very soon.

If this matter is false news, Qin Xian will probably deny it soon.

But Qin Xian didn't.

After he probably knew about this, he continued to practice, and then forgot about replying to them.

If it were applied to other people, it might be outrageous, but if it was applied to a top student like Qin Xian, it would seem very common.

Therefore, everyone did not criticize Qin Xian too much. They just complained and continued to do their own things.

As for the school group.

Everyone's mood was a little confused.

They looked at each other a little confused.

They felt like wild dogs on the roadside that had been kicked inexplicably.

No, why?

Just a few days ago, I suddenly told them that they were going to start practicing some works for the New Year's concert.

Then without saying anything, the school group disbanded.

Recently I heard that a new band has been re-formed?
Or should we pack up all the people from their first and second regiments and throw them in together?

This is this...

Did they do something wrong?

They haven't done anything!

They were just rehearsing normally and preparing for the Nine Schools League, and then their family was gone?
No, what happened? Why can't you understand?
They were all a little confused holding the instruments in their hands.

Don't know what I should do now.

Should you continue practicing, or... give up?
They looked at Zhao Xi, who was sitting at the front of the orchestra with a gentle expression on his face, and conductor Li Tian, ​​who was also at a loss, waiting for their decision.

Zhao Xi looked at Commander Li Tian and spoke tentatively.

"Commander Li Tian? Let's... go out and chat?"

"Huh? Hmm... Well, let's go backstage and chat. The rest of you will practice your own works first. I'll come back to check later."

After saying that, Li Tian nodded to Zhao Xi and walked towards the backstage.

Zhao Xi put away his violin, put it in his piano bag, and followed Li Tian to the backstage.

The two looked at each other.

After Li Tian was silent for a long time, he asked Zhao Xi.

"Do you... know the current situation of Tuan Tuan?"

"Yes, I understand. The school is going to disband the first group and completely integrate the first and second groups to form a new orchestra."

Zhao Xi nodded, then looked at Li Tian, ​​thought for a while, and spoke hesitantly.

"For us, there is actually no difference. The most we can do is to slightly change the position of chief. For example, some powerful people from the second team will serve as chiefs, and the weaker people on our side will serve as role players, but... "

He met Li Tian's eyes and asked him.

"But conductor Li Tian, ​​what should you do? The people here are fine, but the orchestra can only have one conductor. What do you think?"

"I don't know, but I might withdraw from the race."

Li Tian was silent.

He raised his head to look at Zhao Xi and spoke softly to him.

"Chief Zhao Xi, let me ask you a question. What do you think of me as the commander?"

"you ask me?"

Zhao Xi was stunned, looked at Li Tian, ​​and said hesitantly.

"Are you sure you want to ask me? I'm a student."

Li Tian spoke without hesitation. "Well, let me ask you. After all, I have been dealing with my affairs with the Haicheng Radio Symphony Orchestra. I really want to know what others think."

Zhao Xi lowered his head, groping for his thoughts, then looked at Li Tian and said solemnly.

"You are a very powerful conductor! Very professional!"

"but?"

"Well, but... you are not a good commander. You cannot convince everyone."

"I think so too……"

Li Tian took a long breath, as if he wanted to let out the depression in his heart.

He looked at Zhao Xi, smiled at him, and shook his head slightly.

"But forget it, I think I am actually more suitable to lead a band from scratch. It feels really uncomfortable to take over a new band in the middle. There is no way to accomplish many things. I was thinking about whether to resign, but in the end It just so happens that the school is planning to establish a new orchestra, so... I will resign. In addition, I may have to leave Haicheng."

Zhao Xi was stunned. He didn't expect Li Tian to say this to him.

He looked at Li Tian's slightly sad expression, was silent for a moment, and then spoke to him.

"Then... I wish you all the best in the future."

"Thank you."

Facing Zhao Xi's blessing, Li Tian reluctantly smiled and accepted it.

He whispered to Zhao Xi.

"I also wish you all the best. After I leave, you can continue to practice the works given to you by the school, and then cooperate well with the people in the second regiment. I know Chen Qiu, he is a very good conductor, he His personal charm is stronger than mine, and working with him should be much more enjoyable than mine, and you can also show more competitiveness."

"OK, all right……"

Zhao Xi was silent.

Although he doesn't particularly like Li Tian, ​​after all, Li Tian's character is there, and he is not the kind that makes people fall in love with him the first time he cooperates with him.

But to be honest, Li Tian is not the kind of annoying commander.

He is actually more of a conducting scholar than a conductor.

Moreover, they did learn a lot from following Li Tian.

Facing Li Tian's departure, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Zhao Xi took a deep breath and spoke to Li Tian.

"Then, let's see you later when we have the opportunity."

"Well, I'll see you later when we have a chance. Oh, by the way, even if a new band is formed, don't forget to show Chen Qiu the style of our group. Don't let him look down on us!"

"Yes, I will."

"Then, really, we'll see you again later."

After that, Li Tian patted Zhao Xi on the shoulder, returned to the command podium, and began to give everyone the last command lesson.

After Zhao Xi stood still backstage for a long time, he also turned back to the stage, followed Li Tian, ​​and started studying seriously.

He didn't know why, but he suddenly remembered the joke he and Qin Xian made that day.

He said that if Qin Xian left the Second Regiment and left the school, then he would apply for the position of chief of the Second Regiment.

"Now it seems... I really want to go to the second regiment to serve as the second chief?"

Zhao Xi pulled the strings in his hand and listened to the vibration in his ears, and couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"What about you? Qin Xian, how will you and the second regiment led by you and Chen Qiu face us?"

　Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Although I feel that it is not a good time to say this, I feel that it would be too late if I don’t say it...

　　We deeply mourn the death of conductor Seiji Ozawa, a world-class conductor and representative conductor in Asia.
