The God of Conducting Starting from Absolute Pitch

Chapter 108 Chen Qiu
No matter how public opinion grew in the school, the school did not come out to provide further explanations, and just let everyone continue to practice their own works.

It wasn't until a few days later that the people on the first group couldn't bear it anymore. Not only that, some people on the second group also started to be a little worried, and the school came out to explain it at this time.

"In order to cope with the nine-school league and strengthen the connection between school orchestras, it is decided to merge the Haicheng Conservatory of Music Student Orchestra and the Haicheng Conservatory of Music Student Orchestra to form the Haicheng Conservatory of Music Harmony Symphony Orchestra."

Information about the Haiyin Harmony Symphony Orchestra quickly spread throughout the school, and everyone watched in great shock as a new behemoth slowly awakened.

The first group, which represents Haiyin's absolute elite, and the second group, which represents Haiyin's glory in foreign battles, actually merged.

They merged from a normal orchestra of 50 or 60 people with two and three pipes into a super orchestra with four pipes.

One hundred and thirteen people, this is the final number of Haiyin Harmony Symphony Orchestra.

The woodwind section consists of 3 flutes, 12 oboes, clarinets, and bassoons, totaling people.

At the same time, a piccolo, an English horn, a bass clarinet, and a bassoon, which are only equipped in the group, were added, so that there were 4 various woodwind instruments, and the total number of woodwind groups came to 16 configuration of people.

In the brass section, there are 4 trumpets and 8 horns in both orchestras. When combined, there are trumpets and horns each, which is a standard orchestra size.

At the same time, there are 3 trombones and 2 tubas.

This is the main configuration of the wind instrument.

There were 37 people in total.

The string section has become more luxurious.

Bowed string instrument set!
There are 20 first violins, 18 second violins, 16 violas, 12 cellos, and 12 double basses.

The percussion group has 5 people!
Finally, the color instrument group, with 4 people, is responsible for piano, celesta, harp, xylophone, aluminum plate carillon, bells, pipe organ, etc.

So far, there are 112 people in total!
Finally, a conductor Chen Qiu was added.

A giant orchestra of 113 people was completely established.

It seems like a lot, but in fact the composition of the orchestra is actually much more.

Because there are still some people on the list who are not counted.

For example, the instructor, Wang Hai.

He didn't count.

In addition to him, there were also some people from the Arts Management Department.

These people are responsible for a series of chores such as stage layout and operation.

To put it simply, they are actually equivalent to logistics and band managers.

These people are also not included in the band's roster.

If all are included, the entire orchestra may have about 120 people.

Therefore, when the school put this notice on the bulletin board, the list was extremely long, and the dense list made people feel numb.

They only knew that there were a lot of people in the two bands, but they didn't expect that there were so many people in the band.

So many that it's scary.

More than a hundred people!

Such a large establishment, so many people.

Haiyin really spent a lot of money this time.

And this time, they may really want to win the nine-school league championship.

The forums and groups at the school almost exploded.

There was constant discussion about the establishment of a new orchestra in the school.

Many people who originally only planned to play solo and win awards all over the world, but did not plan to join an orchestra, have also begun to think about it.

Such a large orchestra must go there with the intention of winning awards from all over the world.

If they can't win awards now and gild their resumes, then can they try to join the band and follow the band to see if they have the chance to win more awards?

There are probably a lot of sophomores and juniors in the band now, and only a few seniors.

Waiting for the next semester.

The seniors will basically all exit, and then the freshmen will enter.

Haiyin Harmony Symphony Orchestra will usher in a new round of blood changes.

So……

I will definitely have a chance by then!
Everyone started to think about it.

Under the gaze of everyone, the members of Haiyin's first group and second group showed little emotion on their faces.

Because now, they all came to the school's concert hall.

In order to balance a bowl of water, and the conductor of the first regiment had left, there must be many people in the first regiment who were not in a good mood and felt abandoned, so the school moved the rehearsal place to the school The concert hall is where everyone in the group often rehearses.

A group of people had arrived here very early, sitting in their seats and waiting.

Maybe you want to create an elite group, or you may be a little unhappy. After all, the group disbanded, changed its name, and added a group of people.

Their expressions were very serious, and almost no one wanted to speak at this time.

The group of people from the second group came over in a relaxed and happy manner. Seeing the serious looks of everyone in the room, the smiles on their faces couldn't help but dissipate a lot. They cautiously nodded to the group of people in the first group and said hello, and then went on their own. Find a stool nearby, move it behind the group and sit down.

after all……

The group of people were all sitting at the front, where they had been sitting before.

There was a slight gap between them, but not enough to seat a second person.

Therefore, there is no way for the second group to insert it.

Unless he is particularly bold, he walks directly over and kicks a group of people's stools to ask them to move out of the way and let him sit down.

To be honest, if the first band was an unknown band, then the people in the second band might do this.

I don’t know you. Who cares if you are infertile? The conductor of the orchestra is ours now, not yours. What are you being arrogant about?

But the problem is, they know a bunch of people.

The people in Yituan are all the elites in the school.

Excluding those who earn prizes in competitions around the world, they are the strongest in the school.

Even though they won the national championship and their orchestra level was comparable to that of Yituan, they were still a little timid and couldn't compete with the people of Yituan.

Not long after, Ai Gu jumped into the concert hall wearing sequins, opened the door, glided gracefully, then idled half a circle, made a gesture to everyone in the room, and spoke with a smile. road.

"Hey! Good morning! Everyone from the Harmony Symphony Orchestra! How was your weekend? Are you looking forward to the day when the orchestra merges? Let me tell you, I..."

"..."

Silence fell.

Everyone in the entire concert hall just looked at Ai Gu uniformly, and no one said a word.

The second group was fine. Many of them wanted to say hello to Ai Gu and have a pleasant chat.

But seeing the atmosphere in the concert hall, everyone was reluctant to speak. They could only smile awkwardly and wave to Ai Gu to express welcome.

As for the people on the other side of the group, their expressions were calmer.

They glanced at Ai Gu up and down, as if examining him.

Looking at it, Ai Gu's originally cool movements became stiff, and he didn't finish what he said next.

He could only put away his hands in embarrassment, scratched his head, twitched the corners of his mouth, and whispered.

"Um...it seems like you don't have any expectations. Ahem, just pretend I didn't say anything."

After that, he walked dejectedly to the back of the orchestra, found a seat and sat down.

Looking at the people around him, he always felt that he was a little too out of place.

When I was in the second group, everyone liked him very much, so they didn't have any objections.

But now comes the new merged band, surrounded by people who don't seem to like their style.

So he hesitated a little, reached out and took off his coat.

Fortunately, the concert hall was warmer than outside and not too cold.

Otherwise, Ai Gu felt like he would collapse from the cold.

He glanced at the people around him, found someone he was familiar with, and whispered into his ear.

"By the way, have the people in Yi Tuan always been so cold? When I communicated with the people in Yi Tuan before, I didn't feel that they were so cold. How come it has only been so long? Why have the people in Yi Tuan become so strange? …”

"I don't know. I'm just a passerby. I know almost no one in the group."

The man next to him smiled bitterly and whispered.

He glanced around, stretched out his hand to cover his mouth and said to Ai Gu.

"But I feel that the people in the first group may feel it more deeply. They feel as if their team has been directly merged into the second group. That's why they are so bitter and resentful, right?"

"Isn't that true? Isn't it just that we were merged into the regiment? Why are we so bitter and bitter? And we are still in their territory now, not at the headquarters of our second regiment. What are they worried about?"

"Maybe their conductor has left? I heard that Li Tian resigned. Not only did he quit the orchestra here, he even quit the Haicheng Radio Symphony Orchestra." "This..."

Ai Gu didn't know what to say, so he could only sit back in his seat and scratch his head.

He thought for a long time but couldn't think of a way to adjust the atmosphere. He could only sigh and watch on the sidelines with a grimace.

It wasn't until the percussion students from the group came over and greeted him that he started to laugh again and chatted and laughed with the percussion students.

However, the atmosphere in the concert hall was not particularly harmonious, and his joking voice obviously restrained and became extremely quiet.

There are not many opinions on this.

……

At this moment, outside the concert hall.

Qin Xian looked at Zhao Xi, whose face was full of sunshine, with a hint of despair, and then glanced at the closed door of the concert hall. He couldn't help pinching his eyebrows and said tangledly.

"Although I haven't opened the door to the concert hall yet, I can already guess the tense atmosphere inside. I feel that after the two of us enter, the atmosphere in the orchestra will be stretched to the maximum, and many conflicts may arise."

"Is there a conflict between the first group and the second group?"

Zhao Xi smiled and said without any concern.

"It doesn't matter, as long as I don't have any conflicts with you, their conflicts won't cause too much trouble. People in Yituan are very convinced of me. As long as I don't directly come out to oppose you, they won't oppose you. Believe me, or am I saying that you can’t subdue your second regiment?”

"It's not that I'm surrendering, but everyone just listens to me, even though I didn't do anything..." Qin Xian whispered.

He scratched his head and stood at the door of the concert hall, not daring to go in.

"Do you think we should go in now? Or should we wait until Chen Qiu comes?"

"It depends on what you think."

Zhao Xi said directly without any hesitation.

"Going in after Chen Qiu comes is a solution. Let him solve the current conflict between the two orchestras. It can only be said that it has no success and no fault. Before Chen Qiu came, the two of us had solved the conflict between the orchestras. , then there is another solution.”

When he said this, he looked at Qin Xian and said relaxedly.

"If we can solve it in advance, wouldn't this just demonstrate our ability as chief?"

"There's nothing wrong with what you said, but..."

Qin Xian still hesitated.

He looked at Zhao Xi who was eager to try, thought for a while, and nodded to him.

"Well, I just listen to you, let's go in now!"

After that, he pushed open the door of the concert hall and stepped inside.

Zhao Xi followed Qin Xian with a smile on his face and also walked towards the concert hall.

The two people's steps into the concert hall instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the orchestra.

The group of people in the group immediately seemed to have found a backbone. They suppressed the excitement in their hearts and looked at Zhao Xi intently, watching him walk onto the stage from the audience and walk to the front of the orchestra.

But then, some doubts arose in their eyes.

Because Zhao Xi did not sit down at his previous chief position, but came to the second chief position, patted the second chief on the shoulder, asked him to sit in the back, and sat down in the second chief position. .

The movements and expressions are extremely natural, without any feeling of being forced.

It was as if he was supposed to be sitting in this position.

Seeing Zhao Xi like this, the group of people in the group couldn't help it.

Before Chief Erti said anything, a flute player not far away took the lead in frowning and said to Zhao Xixi.

"Chief Zhao Xi, you...did you take the wrong position? This place is not the chief's position. Your position should be on the side closest to the command, right?"

"Ok?"

Zhao Xi glanced at the man, slightly raised the corners of his smiling mouth, and spoke meaningfully.

"Isn't this... the position of the second chief?"

"This is the position of the second chief, but Chief Zhao Xi, shouldn't you sit in the chief position? Just like before."

"Are we still in the same group as before? Isn't this... the Harmony Symphony Orchestra?"

"But we are not..."

Before the man could speak, Zhao Xi interrupted him directly and asked him in a curious tone.

"What are we not? Aren't we a new symphony orchestra? Hasn't the student orchestra of Haicheng Conservatory of Music already announced its dissolution? Hasn't the conductor also resigned? Now there is no longer one group or two groups, only the Haiyin Harmony Symphony Are you in the group? Why do we still need to sit in the same position as before?"

"..."

The man didn't speak. He looked at Zhao Xi with a complicated expression.

He really wanted to say that Zhao Xi betrayed them and became a lackey of the new band.

But he didn't know where to start.

Could it be that he should ask everyone else in the band to stand up and oppose the merger of the first band and the second band, so that everyone can form their own band, and then continue like this?
Let’s not talk about whether the school agrees or disagrees, just the simplest question.

Where does the command come from?
Li Tian has left, and they have no commander now.

Unless they find a new person from the school, even if they continue to insist on the concept of a group, it will not help.

An orchestra with a good conductor and an orchestra without a good conductor, even if the members in the orchestra are of similar level, the difference will be so great that it is difficult to understand.

The man looked at Zhao Xi, but he could only sulk. He didn't know whether he hated Zhao Xi or himself. He just snorted and sat down directly, lowering his head and saying nothing.

Faced with that man's attitude, Zhao Xi didn't have much idea. He just stood up, looked around at the people around him with a smile, and said with a smile.

"Okay, don't be too nervous. Don't think too much. I'll tell you the specific location when the commander comes. I just want to sit back a little, that's all."

After saying that, he looked at Qin Xian who was standing at a loss and said to him.

"Chief Qin Xian, why are you still standing? Why don't you sit down?"

"I……"

The corner of Qin Xian's mouth twitched.

Looking at the only principal seat left on the stage, which was the closest to the conductor's position, he glanced at Zhao Xi with a hint of helplessness. After sighing, he picked up the violin in his hand and sat down towards the principal seat.

Under the surprised and expectant eyes of everyone in the second group, he nodded to them and spoke softly.

"Well, then let me sit in this seat first. If anyone thinks I'm not qualified, they can discuss it with me. It's okay for me to sit in the back."

His voice was obviously very quiet and cautious, but in the ears of everyone, it sounded like a direct mockery.

Not only the first group, but also the people in the second group.

The people in the second group looked at Qin Xian excitedly, obviously not expecting that Qin Xian could be so tough, domineering, and full of sarcasm.

Whoever thinks he is not worthy of being the chief should challenge him head-on. Who is afraid of whom?

It sounds like there is no problem, but you must know that Qin Xian was the first place in the last final exam, and his results crushed everyone present.

Are you sure you can fight Qin Xian in a duel?

Facing Qin Xian speaking so Chinese, the expressions of the group became particularly distorted.

Isn’t it just about good grades? Isn’t it just awesome?

Can you do whatever you want if you have good grades and great skills?
Ok……

Does it seem like it’s really possible?
A group of people were very frustrated.

They are the kind of elite students who have always believed that whoever has good grades will speak for themselves.

As a result, I am being criticized by a member of the second group. The point is that this member of the second group is still the first in my grade.

This left them so aggrieved that they had nothing to say and could only sulk about themselves.

They secretly made up their minds that when the conductor came and the performance started, they would make sure the people in the second group looked good.

Don't use any dirty tricks, just simply use your strength to overcome them.

It is our duty to re-create a ball of glory!
The group of people in the second group had no idea what the people in the first group were angry about, so they just communicated among themselves in low voices.

Under the excitement and excitement of everyone, the door of the concert hall was opened again.

click!
Accompanied by the creak of the wooden door.

A figure walked in from the door of the concert hall.

Everyone's eyes immediately turned to the door.

Seeing the slender figure and the artistic temperament, a name flashed in everyone's mind.

National competition champion!

Commander of Haiyin Second Regiment!

Chen Qiu!
