Second Piano Concerto

The two left the inn and walked back slowly.Qin Haiou was already mentally prepared for Qin Haiya's intentions. When he was wandering around with Qin Haiya, he had been thinking about it secretly. Now that he heard what he said, he knew that it was finally time to talk about business. The situation at the meeting and the plan for the concert were explained in detail.When he was about to finish speaking, the two had already returned to Xiaopengmen. The room Yu Doudou had arranged for Qin Haiya was next to Qin Haiou's. The two brothers returned to the room, poured two glasses of water, and sat down to continue chatting.

Qin Haiya already had a general understanding of what Qin Haiou said from Yu Doudou. Although Qin Haiou had a closer relationship with him, he naturally spoke in more detail and more clearly, but on the whole and several key points From the point of view, there is actually not much difference between what the two said, and Qin Haiou did not provide any more useful information.After confirming this point himself, Qin Haiya said, "Do you think this is good?"

Qin Haiou looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

Qin Haiya said: "We will sign the commission contract with Tan Shuo. The commission fee and conditions you mentioned can also be included in the contract. But the repertoire for this comeback concert will still be selected from your previous regular repertoire. , after you come back smoothly, you will perform Tan Shuo's works again. In this case, his works can still be staged, and you are still the premiere of this work, what do you think?"

Qin Haiya analyzed the problem very clearly.He is different from Yu Doudou.Yu Doudou only considered it from Qin Haiou's point of view, because Qin Haiou's plan was too risky, so her goal was to completely veto the plan from the beginning, and she did not intend to leave any chance for Tan Shuo's works.But Qin Haiya didn't think so.As a businessman, after listening to Yu Doudou's explanation of the situation, he immediately formed his own judgment on the risks and rewards of this comeback plan.

Qin Haiya completely trusts Qin Haiou's judgment on composers and music works.Qin Haiou studied under Wang Yifu when he was young, and won an award at the age of 17. His performance career has reached a height that ordinary people cannot reach. In the following years of study and performance, he has cooperated with almost all the top conductors, orchestras and musicians in the world. .Therefore, Qin Haiya was not worried that Qin Haiou would take his eyes off him. Since Qin Haiou valued Tan Shuo's works so much, Tan Shuo's talent was unquestionable.

Under this premise, performing Tan Shuo's work is not a bad thing in itself, but if Qin Haiou plays this work at the comeback concert, Qin Haiou will take higher risks than performing regular repertoires.In Qin Haiya's view, high risk is not terrible, as long as the reward is high enough, then this risk is worth taking.But when he was considering the rewards brought by this concert, he found that there were valuable rewards, but these rewards were not for Qin Haiou, but all fell on Tan Shuo.

For Qin Haiou, the success of his comeback mainly depends on whether he can successfully complete the performance in the concert, not the works he performs.Qin Haiou has already achieved fame, all he needs to do is to return to that stage, and then he will become the focus of that stage again, he does not need to use other people's works to achieve himself.But this is not the case for Tan Shuo.There are many underappreciated people in this world, and not everyone can find a bosom friend, or be attracted by Bole, or even have such an excellent opportunity.If Qin Haiou plays Tan Shuo's works at his comeback concert and succeeds, then Tan Shuo will become a topic of music overnight, gain both fame and fortune, and become the biggest winner of this concert.

After thinking about this point, Qin Haiya agreed with Yu Doudou's opinion. If Qin Haiou's plan is followed, Qin Haiou will bear the risks, but Tan Shuo will take the benefits. not worth it.However, Qin Haiya also disapproved of Yu Doudou's solution and completely separated Tan Shuo's works from Qin Haiou's future. This was because he believed in Qin Haiou's judgment, and secondly because he knew his younger brother well. He could feel that Tan Shuo's works were Qin Haiou's bottom line, and if he insisted on entanglement on this issue, the result would probably be counterproductive.

Qin Haiya not only hopes that Qin Haiou can come back smoothly, but also takes into account his feelings. At the same time, he also considers that if Tan Shuo is really an excellent composer, then cooperating with him will be beneficial to Qin Haiou's future.To this end, Qin Haiya proposed a more gentle solution, separating Tan Shuo's commissioned works from Qin Haiou's comeback concert.Qin Haiou regards the two as the same thing, but Qin Haiya thinks that the two can be split into two different things to deal with separately, let Qin Haiou make a successful comeback first, and then perform the premiere of Tan Shuo's work.This method is safer and very reasonable.Although Qin Haiou's performance of Tan Shuo's works in his comeback concert and ordinary concerts has a different impact, this method can still guarantee Tan Shuo's basic income.It is acceptable for Qin Haiou to use part of Tan Shuo's interests to reduce part of Qin Haiou's risk, because he can still play Tan Shuo's works, and it is also cost-effective for Tan Shuo, because he can still borrow Qin Haiou's music. Seagull's performance made his works known to the world.Qin Haiou had no reason to reject this proposal, and Tan Shuo had no reason to reject it.

In fact, before coming to the ancient town, when he was discussing this with Yu Doudou, Qin Haiya had already thought of this plan, and Yu Doudou also thought it was feasible.But this is a major decision related to Qin Haiou's playing career. Qin Haiya is very cautious about this, so he finally put this plan in front of Qin Haiou after reconfirming Qin Haiou's thoughts.

After Qin Haiou finished speaking, Qin Haiou fell into a long silence.Looking at his frowning brows and stubborn expression, Qin Haiya knew that he did not intend to accept this proposal.But Qin Haiya didn't find it difficult, nor did he feel any disappointment or displeasure. On the contrary, such Qin Haiou made him feel very relieved.In the past, Qin Haiou has been walking along the path arranged for him by others, because he loves music and is fascinated by the piano, so he walked this path logically. During this process, no one forced him to do what he didn’t like. things, and he doesn't care about things other than music, he doesn't have too many ideas of his own.Later, he was troubled by psychological problems, and he often couldn't see a smile on his face for a long time, which made everyone around him worry about him.But the Qin Haiou in front of him was different.As Qin Haiou's eldest brother, when he saw his younger brother again, Qin Haiya realized that the sunny, confident and energetic Qin Haiou had returned.Not only that, but now Qin Haiou has a very clear idea about his future, even though his idea surprised them all, even though Qin Haiya thinks that Qin Haiou's decision on Tan Shuo's issue was motivated by emotions, but this is still a matter of fact. This kind of valuable growth should also get enough affirmation and support.Therefore, facing Qin Haiou's stubbornness, Qin Haiya's feelings are also different from Yu Doudou's.Putting aside risks and rewards, pros and cons and success or failure, Qin Haiya has something more important.Today's Qin Haiou is more mature and stronger than before. He is undergoing a transformation. Although there are twists and turns in the process, in Qin Haiya's view, Qin Haiou, who is trying to think about how to refute him, is actually in a very different situation. good condition.

Qin Haiya waited patiently for Qin Haiou's answer, and at this time Qin Haiou was also making a difficult decision.Qin Haiya's proposal did take care of the interests of both Qin Haiou and Tan Shuo in a more secure way, but this arrangement has deviated from Qin Haiou's original intention of commissioning Tan Shuo to create this work.

Faced with Doudou's doubts, Qin Haiou could not explain much, but only responded with a strong attitude.After all, Yu Doudou is his manager, so he won't really confront him head-on.But Qin Haiya is different.If you want to get his support on such an important decision, you must give sufficient reasons. Qin Haiya has never been a person who will give in just because others are tough, not to mention that he is Qin Haiou's eldest brother. It was because of Qin Haiou that he was so concerned about the concert. Qin Haiou couldn't bear to hide something from him.

However, everything about "Xinghai" is the pain that Tan Shuo didn't want to mention in front of others. Qin Haiou immediately wanted to stand up for him after he first knew about it, and gradually understood his silence when facing this matter, and has been standing up for him ever since. He kept it a secret and never told anyone.Now even facing Qin Haiya, even knowing that Qin Haiya is someone who is absolutely trustworthy and who knows the seriousness, Qin Haiou still hesitated for a long time to tell this matter.

"Brother, there is something that I didn't tell Sister Yu." Finally Qin Haiou said.

Qin Haiya nodded slightly, waiting for him to speak.In fact, it's not that Yu Doudou was unaware of Qin Haiou's concealment, but Qin Haiou didn't say anything, and none of them knew the influence and importance of the concealed part to the whole matter. Maybe it was just Qin Haiou's own reluctance. He wanted to explain his thoughts clearly, but maybe it was the key to everything. Now that Qin Haiou wanted to speak out, Qin Haiya was of course willing to listen.

Therefore, Qin Haiou began to discover the manuscript of "Xinghai" by accident, and recalled bit by bit how he was bumped into by Tan Shuo while peeking at the manuscript, which caused Tan Shuo to throw the manuscript into the trash can. How to buy the manuscript from Cao Nan’s shop, until he suspected Tan Shuo’s plagiarism and discovered the truth, the two had a dispute because of this, and when Tan Shuo rejected his commission, how did he finally convince him to agree ——All of this is still vivid in my mind. Qin Haiou recalled it while talking, and his heart was once again washed away by the emotions at that time. The more he talked, the more excited he became, and finally stood up suddenly.

"Brother, do you want it? Ever since Xiao Cong premiered "Song of the Long Night", I haven't even touched this work on stage. The teacher defends him like that. This is how he repays the teacher! And that Sun Chen , since he won the award, he has been working as an associate professor in the composition department for these years. A nasty person like him steals the students' works and is still shamelessly being a teacher! If it weren't for them, Tan Shuo's works would have been recognized long ago! Perhaps I have played his compositions many years ago, instead of today we are still discussing whether his compositions should appear in my comeback concert!"

He said all these things that had been held in his heart for a long time, because Tan Shuo was the person involved and had been forbearing, so it was inconvenient to say some things in front of Tan Shuo, but Qin Haiou was very aware of Xiao Cong's situation over the years, knowing the truth Afterwards, he also learned about Sun Chen's recent situation in private.Qin Haiya is not an outsider. In front of him, Qin Haiou can finally confide his views and express his anger without reservation.

He paused, then continued: "I came to this town and met Tan Shuo. The reason why I was able to come back was because of his help. One of the reasons why he rejected me at the beginning was that you opposed me today The reason. I tried my best to persuade him to let him put aside his worries and the past, and create a work that surpassed "Xinghai". We face problems and overcome difficulties together. This road of return is what we walked out together. !Now that we have finished the interview and he has started to create, I cannot leave him at this time for my own benefit! Without his participation, this comeback concert is not complete, because this is not me The comeback of one person, but the comeback of the two of us, there is only one chance like this, if I can’t play Tan Shuo’s works in this concert, even if my comeback is successful, I will leave regrets that can never be made up for!”

After he finished speaking, he still stood there, immersed in the turbulent emotions.Qin Haiya was calm on the surface, but in fact he was quite shaken in his heart.What Qin Haiou concealed was indeed the most critical part, but Qin Haiya did not expect that there would be so many twists and turns behind this matter.It turned out that this was Tan Shuo's weight in the whole matter, and now Qin Haiou put together the most important piece of the puzzle, making this matter take on a different look immediately.Qin Haiya finally understood that Qin Haiou was not unaware of the risks and rewards of playing Tan Shuo's works at the comeback concert. He knew very well how high the risks were and how great the rewards were. That's why he insisted on doing so. He just wants Tan Shuo's works to appear on the stage with the strongest posture and attract the widest range of attention. This is not only to get Tan Shuo recognized, but also to give Xiao Cong and Sun Chen a powerful counterattack.In order to achieve this goal, Qin Haiou did not hesitate to take any risks, and he firmly believed that he could succeed because he had full confidence in himself and Tan Shuo.

This time, it was Qin Haiya's turn to fall silent.He has already understood the ins and outs of the matter, and also understood all Qin Haiou's thoughts.This is not a decision to be measured by pros and cons, success or failure, or quantifiable standards. This has become Qin Haiou's knot and obsession. The real reason for getting up.This decision was made by himself, and he has the courage to bear all the consequences it brings. Now he has begun to implement his plan. Negotiate terms, and even persuade him to give up.

Seeing Qin Haiya's silence, Qin Haiou thought that he still disagreed and didn't know what else to say.Since childhood, Qin Haiya has always been the strong backing of his younger siblings, and he is a conscientious and impeccable elder brother.Although Qin Haiou would not give up this plan because of Qin Haiya's objection, the brothers had different opinions, especially thinking that his elder brother was worrying so much for himself, Qin Haiou felt uncomfortable after all.

"Brother, please help me again." Qin Haiou whispered.

Qin Haiya recovered from his thoughts and looked up at his younger brother's face.Tan Shuo's experience is indeed injustice, but Qin Haiya has seen too many intrigues and intrigues in the mall. Tan Shuo has indeed lived a miserable life in the past ten years, but he is not the only one who has lived a miserable life in this world , with Qin Haiya's experience, he has long been used to dealing with such things indifferently.Therefore, what really shocked him was not the truth of the plagiarism itself, but Qin Haiou's handling of the matter, as well as his anger and persistence.

In the past, Qin Haibei always said that as an artist, the most precious thing about Qin Haiou is not his talent and talent, but his spotless heart. She hopes that no matter what he goes through in the future, he can use such a pure heart Face life and the art he loves with a clean soul.Qin Haiya also understood that it was precisely because of such a pure heart that Qin Haiou reacted so violently when facing Tan Shuo's matter.Qin Haiou wants to use his own way to defend his principles of right and wrong, black and white, true and false, good and evil. Maybe his plan is not the best one to weigh the pros and cons, but there is a strong belief in it. This belief moved Qin Haiya.Sometimes it doesn’t take too complicated a reason for emotions to overcome reason. Qin Haiya watched his younger brother grow up and participated in all the major events in Qin Haiou’s life so far, but this concert has extraordinary significance for Qin Haiou After listening to him explaining the inside story, Qin Haiya actually already had a plan in mind.

"I already understand what you said." Qin Haiya patted the sofa beside him and motioned Qin Haiou to sit down. Although he had a tendency in his heart, he still didn't give a clear answer, "I want to see you This is Tan Shuo."

Whether it is Yu Doudou or Qin Haiou, the Tan Shuo they talk about is not the Tan Shuo that Qin Haiya saw with his own eyes.Since Tan Shuo is so important, Qin Haiya believes that he must meet this person in person before making a final decision.

Hearing what he said, Qin Haiou knew that his elder brother was about to be convinced by him, otherwise, according to Qin Haiya's character, if he made up his mind to oppose this plan, then he would never propose to meet Tan Shuo.

Qin Haiou nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll take you to see him tomorrow. But he sleeps late and usually doesn't get up until noon."

The two finalized the matter, and the atmosphere of the conversation relaxed.They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they had a lot to say to each other besides the concert.Later, Qin Haiou showed Qin Haiya the photos of Caifeng, and told him the interesting things about Caifeng. Qin Haiya was very interested, and the two brothers chatted until late at night before falling asleep.
