world number one pianist

Chapter 346 The World's Number One Pianist (The Finale)

He Shen did not appear in front of everyone, he was still traveling and advancing in various places around the world.

No one knows where He Shen went.

There were only a few people, a few pianists who happened to be traveling in the same place met He Shen, exchanged with each other, and said goodbye again.

He Shen just didn't tell others about his whereabouts.

However, all his business and artistic activities are still going on.

Those performances that were previously arranged with other pianists in advance are still going on.

Unlike other people who continued to communicate after the performance, He Shen left immediately after the performance, not giving anyone a chance to keep him.

Even if some people wanted to chase He Shen and see where He Shen wanted to go, they couldn't find it.

This, on the contrary, created He Shen's special personality, a lone personality.

This person was set up under the operation of the brokerage company, which brought more benefits to He Shen.

Even in this world, He Shen is only performing the most basic and minimal range of performances, maintaining his international reputation.

His reputation is also developing in a better and better direction.

In addition to his playing, he has never overturned, and every time he plays, he is developing towards a higher level, without any signs of weakness.

His reputation is getting wider and wider.

The reputation of He Shen, a Chinese pianist who never overturned his car, is also spread all over the world.

Even if He Shen's every performance is very short, the intervals are very long.

But under the follow-up operation, every time He Shen played, the effect was so good that it exploded.

The cooperation between He Shen and Barenboim was even praised by official newspapers in the beautiful country and Europe.

They were all there, trumpeting He Shen's performance.

"The World's Best Pianist! "

"The top pianist of the young generation, even the middle-aged generation! "

"Classical Music Players, Hope for the Future"

"Top Performer from China"

Countless reputations are all placed on He Shen, coupled with the promotion of the top of China, He Shen has become the representative of classical music in China.

Compared with other performers, such as Lang Liangyue, Li Diyun and others, he is more refined.

He was genuine and devoted himself completely to the music.

He is also in a real sense, full of love for classical music.

But for He Shen, what he loves is not just classical music.

He Shen is full of love for all music, the music that can really touch people's hearts.

He loves all music, all beautiful things.

The pursuit of beauty in everything around him is what he has been pursuing in music.

Whether classical music is sad, or painful, or any other variety of emotions.

He Shen pursues to play out the deep beauty of this piece of music.

It is so beautiful that it makes people feel suffocated, and it makes people feel a deep sense of beauty.

He Shen did not stay in the classical music circle, he visited many people in other fields.

For example, the literary world.

Those old people in the literary world are more sensitive to aesthetics.

Compared with those young people, their writing is not so complicated, and their writing is full of other beauty.

The beauty of words.

There is no way to feel these beauties through intuitive feelings.

Therefore, He Shen is more willing to follow these people, communicate, and discuss everyone's mutual feelings about beauty.

In addition to music, there are movies, architecture, art, sculpture, etc...

He Shen greedily absorbs the beauty of music from all over the world.

He traveled all over the world, communicated with others, and exchanged their feelings about beauty.

That kind of beauty can let oneself be cultivated.

He Shen felt the discussion of everyone around him. He felt as if he had learned a lot, but he also felt that he seemed to have lost a lot.

There is a lot less, what I should really express.

All things belong to others, and nothing of his own is in it.

Because of this feeling, He Shen immediately understood that he should retreat.

Retreat to absorb what you have gained before.

Now my absorption of the outside world has reached a critical value, and there is no need to continue to advance.

Therefore, He Shen immediately booked a flight ticket back to China and hid in his room.

Without informing anyone, just hid in the room alone, feeling his own music, thinking about other people's interpretation of beauty.

All these things about beauty have passed through He Shen's brain.

He was looking for how he should interpret the music he wanted!
He Shen closed his eyes, and sat quietly on the piano bench, as if the sound of the wind could be heard in his ears.

These voices made He Shen feel a different sense of beauty.

But this beauty made He Shen seem to laugh.

He looked at himself and shook his head helplessly.

"I'm... insane, right?"

He Shen got up, walked to his bookshelf, flipped through the works he was about to play, and did not continue to make any sound.

He is listening to the wind.

Hear and see, the call of the wind.

Listen, the music flows in the wind.

He seemed to feel that he had grasped that pulse, that one, the pulse of music.

He can interpret everything he wants to interpret!
He Shen's eyes lit up suddenly, he threw the music score aside, and quickly returned to his piano, putting his hand on the piano.

Then, it crashed down.

boom!
The music sounded, but no one listened except He Shen.

……

Zhao Zitong finally got the news about He Shen, but she didn't go to find He Shen.

She just sat in He Shen's piano room every day.

In the Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music, which belongs to He Shen alone, in the piano room of He Shen Piano Studio.

She just sat there.

She is on the left, and Ji Mengting is on the right.

The two are preparing for their respective games.

Since that breakthrough, Ji Mengting seems to have relaxed a lot. She has found her own music.

But Zhao Zitong didn't relax a lot, on the contrary, he became heavier.

She tried to let go of many, for example, her feelings for He Shen.

Instead of continuing to fall into He Shen's body, it is better to just cut off the thoughts like this, and never think about these things again.

Put all these things in the back of your head, and play the music seriously.

Let your heart be completely on the music.

In this way, maybe live a little happier?
However, she felt that she might not be able to do it.

Zhao Zitong sat on the piano bench, deliberately adjusted the piano bench to the highest position, swung his legs freely, and looked at Ji Mengting with a happy face, with a smile on his face.

Ji Mengting looked at her, couldn't help frowning, and suddenly said.

"What are you laughing at? You are about to start the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, and I don't need to prepare for the competition. What are you laughing at?"

"Ah? No~"

Zhao Zitong grinned, and said with a smile: "Thank you for snatching this piano room back for me. When He Shen left, this piano store was always said to be returned to the school. I didn't expect you to be able to do so." Take it back!"

"Otherwise?" Ji Mengting gave Zhao Zitong an angry look, and said casually, "I am No.3 in the Chopin International Piano Competition!"

"Although I didn't get the No.1 result, but I have already got the No.3, signed with He Shen's agency, and I am still making progress. I can feel the progress by myself. What else should I do? ?”

"This look is enough. I'll take this to discuss terms with Zhou San. Isn't it an agreement? Isn't this an exclusive piano store for one person, plus the two of us who are disciples of student He Shen? Give us this piano room?"

Zhao Zitong raised his head boredly, swayed his white and delicate legs, looked at the metronome in front of him, and said casually.

"Yeah, why didn't Wednesday give us the piano room? Indeed..."

"What on earth are you trying to say? Ever since I won Xiao Sai's award, you've been fooling around all day long. What exactly do you want to do?"

Ji Mengting stood up suddenly at this time, she looked at Zhao Zitong puzzled and said: "You are almost ready for the competition, why do you look not in a hurry now? Is it you preparing for the competition or me?"

"It's me~" Zhao Zitong said casually, she didn't look at Ji Mengting, but continued to stare at the metronome in front of her.

Her tone became extremely low, full of pain and entanglement.

"However, what does it have to do with me whether I get the ranking or not? What's the difference?"

"My parents told me many things before, telling me that girls should not be too strong, so that you will not find a partner!"

"I didn't take it seriously at first. After all, if you play the piano seriously, do you play the piano? What kind of object do you want?"

"Then I just went to take a random look at the people my parents recommended and looked at them."

"These people are said to be exceptionally good people, each of them is very good!"

"The height is about 1.8 meters, the body is well-proportioned, and he is handsome. He is simply a fresh meat, and each of them has good professional grades!"

"Basically, they are all at the associate professor level."

"However, when I look at them, what's in my mind is all about He Shen..."

"I always compare them with He Shen."

"In the end, I found out that no one is comparable to He Shen, and no one is worthy of me!"

"so……"

Zhao Zitong sighed, his eyes didn't know where to look.

She continued.

"So, I don't know, should I lower my grades a little bit, to the same level as those people?"

"I'm afraid, after looking for these people, I won't be able to chat with them about music or music aesthetics later on."

"I'm always afraid that they don't care about art and aesthetics, and they are more willing to understand science."

"Even if each of them can play a little piano and put on a little rock concert or something."

"I'm still afraid..."

"Mengting, tell me, what should I do?"

"I'm already... 26?"

Zhao Zitong looked at Ji Mengting in front of her, but Ji Mengting avoided her gaze.

She doesn't know what to do, she is also urging marriage at home now.

She didn't want to get married, but she didn't want to dedicate herself to music either.

Like Zhao Zitong, she has dedicated too much to music, so she is unwilling to dedicate more of her life to music.

But here comes the problem.

Who on earth is qualified to marry her, a top performer in classical music?
The No.3 of the Chopin International Piano Competition has definitely gained a foothold on the world stage and is heading towards a higher peak.

In addition, there is the same brokerage company as He Shen behind him.

Ji Mengting, fearless!

Zhao Zitong looked at Ji Mengting, couldn't help but smiled, shook his head, didn't say anything, just continued to swing his legs.

Just when the two of them were in a daze, someone knocked on the door suddenly.

The two of them didn't agree, so the man pushed open the door, it was Wednesday.

Standing at the door on Wednesday, seeing both of them there, he couldn't help but smile: "No, they're all here? Here, take this."

He handed them a document in his hand and said.

"He Shen's concert was specially brought for you, and I said that I must give it to the two of you."

"Eh?"

The two stood there, looking at Wednesday in front of them, without reacting for a while.

But soon, Zhao Zitong came to his senses, ran over suddenly, ran to the front of Zhou San, stretched out his hand to take the document in Zhou San's hand, his eyes shone brightly.

"This, this is... He Shen's concert?"

"Yes, He Shen's concert."

Zhou San smiled, threw another document to Ji Mengting, and said.

"It's hard to get it. What about this performance? He Shen's publicity outside is a summary of his first half of his life. Therefore, this concert will only be held once, and there will be no tour."

"Also, this concert will not sell tickets to the outside world, but invites all media and top performers."

"Other than that, no one will be invited!"

"So you keep these two tickets, don't lose them!"

After finishing speaking, Zhou San waved to the two of them, and left their side with a smile.

As for Zhao Zitong and Ji Mengting, they looked at the tickets in their hands, and the light in their eyes gradually lit up.

To get married, I'm going to He Shen's concert right now!

What if He Shen missed his life?My wife is happy!

……

He Shen's concert was held at the Jiangzhou Grand Theater.

This is where he rose to prominence, where he made his first steps towards the national stage and the world stage.

Therefore, He Shen decided to put the stage here to interpret the first half of his life.

Countless people came to Jiangzhou from all over the world, looking forward to He Shen's performance.

After all, there is only one person who is the most powerful pianist in the world and has been improving all the time.

That is He Shen!
It has now become the consensus of most people.

He Shen is a top pianist, maybe even the number one pianist in the world!
He Shen's piano proficiency has reached the world's first level.

Moreover, compared with other veteran pianists who are constantly regressing, He Shen's level of strength is constantly improving.

Keep moving towards higher peaks.

Without any slightest slack.

It is precisely because of this that He Shen's reputation in the world is getting louder and louder.

He Shen's concert this time has also attracted everyone's attention.

However, everyone tacitly made an action.

That is, shut up.

They didn't say anything about He Shen to others.

They kept everything about He Shen firmly in their hearts and did not announce it to the public.

After all, this concert, which belongs to them alone, who will announce it to the outside world?

When the performance is over, it's not too late for everyone to talk about it, but now that they've said it, some people will have their own ideas.

For example, buying concert tickets from someone.

If you want to buy it, you can definitely buy it.

After all, this ticket was given to them by He Shen, and he didn't ask them to pay, which means that He Shen recognized them.

So if someone pays tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of dollars to buy this ticket.

No matter how indifferent you are, you are still easily influenced.

After all, who doesn't like money?I don't like it just because I don't have enough money.

In order to ensure that they can see this concert, those people decided not to release the news of this concert for the time being. After the concert is over and the record of this concert is released, they will decide on other things.

Money can continue to be earned, but this is only one personal concert, but there is no next time!
Therefore, they quickly negotiated with the company and came to Jiangzhou.

As a result, the person came, but did not report in advance.

This also caused the people in Jiangzhou to see many foreigners coming to Jiangzhou, but they didn't understand their purpose.

There were even people who called the police because too many people came, causing the police in Jiangzhou to investigate this matter.

After finding out that it was He Shen who was preparing for the concert, he was reluctantly relieved.

After all, He Shen's concert was reported.

He Shen didn't know what was going on in Jiangzhou, and he didn't care.

After letting his music reach the end, he slowly lowered his hand.

He looked up at everything around him, at his hands, at the distance, at his room, and was in a daze for a moment.

After a long time, he slowly woke up from the confusion.

He got up, walked to the door, and reached for an envelope beside him, which contained a ticket.

No, not just one ticket, but many tickets.

All the tickets for He Shen's previous concerts were placed here.

This time, He Shen took out his last concert ticket, put it in the letter, and collected it.

Looking at the documents in his hand, He Shen stood there for a long time before slowly leaving the room.

He Shen didn't go to the concert hall, but walked to the station, followed the car, and arrived at Ningcheng Railway Station.

Follow the train to the south.

After taking the train for three or four hours, He Shen arrived at his hometown.

The changes in my hometown have been great, and everything around me is a little bit unrecognizable to He Shen.

The high-speed rail has been opened in my hometown, but it is a pity that it does not border Ningcheng, but borders Haicheng.

A viaduct was built in my hometown, and there was a lot of traffic, which was similar to Ningcheng.

The roads in his hometown are also much wider. The ordinary four-lane cement road when he left has become an eight-lane road.

Everything around has changed.

But, has that person changed?

He Shen hesitated a little, squeezed the letter in his hand, and wanted to leave.

But in the end, He Shen still walked in the direction of his hometown.

He stretched out his hand to hail a taxi, took a taxi and drove quickly towards the city center, then got off near the old town, and came to a road that was not wide, only had four lanes, and was covered by sycamore trees.

The surrounding hospitals and schools were demolished and replaced with entertainment squares.

My home has not been moved, it still looks the same, but it is much older.

Looking at the fingerprint door in front of his house, He Shen was taken aback for a moment.

This door has not been changed, it is still the fingerprint door before I left.

After hesitating for a moment, He Shen put his finger on it.

click...

The fingerprint door is very old, and it took a long time to respond to He Shen's fingerprints. Just when He Shen thought it was a failure, the door opened.

He Shen looked at the door in front of him, took a deep breath, and walked into the house.

The house was very quiet, as if no one was there.

But He Shen knew that someone was definitely there at this time.

"Who?"

A deep voice came from the room, followed by a few coughs, an elderly man with a dignified face came to the door of the room, looked at He Shen, squinted his eyes involuntarily, and did not speak.

And He Shen also didn't speak.

He just picked up the file in his hand, walked up to that person, opened the file, and placed it in front of that person bit by bit.

The winner of the Golden Piano Award, tickets for the first round, the second round and the third round.

Tickets for the first round, the second round and the third round of the Huaguo Music Higher Education Competition.

Tickets for the Chopin International Piano Competition, the first round, the second round, the third round, and the fourth round of the preliminaries.

Tickets for He Shen's first concert tour back home.

Tickets for He Shen's master class.

He Shen Huaguo Concert Tour Tickets.

He Shen's first record, and electronic record.

Tickets for He Shen's European tour.

Tickets for the Spring Festival Gala.

Tickets for the Americas Tour.

……

Countless tickets, countless reports, all gathered here, forming a thick pile.

The praise from the above for He Shen was almost to the point where He Shen would blush when he saw it.

Everyone is saying that he is the top pianist in Huaguo.

It is said that he is the world's number one pianist!
As long as He Shen survives, he will always hold the world's number one throne unshakably.

He Shen took out the last ticket and placed it on top of the document in front of him.

He looked at the person in front of him, opened his lips slightly, but only got a low hoarse growl in exchange for thousands of words.

Like a wounded cub, he slowly asked the person in front of him.

"Am I...qualified now? Can I become a pianist? Dad?

He Shen's father was silent. He looked at He Shen and wanted to pat him on the shoulder, but he couldn't do anything.

I said too much to him, so heavy that I hurt my son and left me for nearly ten years.

Looking at the information and the tickets, his eyes fluctuated.

He looked at He Shen, then at the information, tickets, and reports in front of him. His lips could not help but squirmed, trying to say something, but in the end he just coughed a few times and didn't say anything.

He turned around and went back to his room. After messing around for a long time, he found another pile of documents.

This is a file in a box, and there are more tickets and reports in it than what He Shen has in hand.

Looking at these documents, He Shen couldn't help showing a gleam of light in his slightly dim gaze.

He Shen looked at his father, and his father also looked at him.

He Shen spoke again slowly.

"I... am I good enough now?"

In the end, the father closed his eyes, and after a long silence, he opened them solemnly and looked at He Shen, his voice also extremely hoarse.

"Enough, long ago, enough!"

"You are in my heart, you have always been..."

"The number one pianist in the world!"
