King of Classical Music

The warm spring breeze blows the huge and tidy campus into spring, with a large flat lawn, a few small but elegant European-style buildings, and the entire Conservatory of Music in Paris is full of students playing casually.Some were playing the trumpet and some were playing the violin. The sound of the piano might be elegant or stuttering, forming a unique musical atmosphere.

On the path paved with white cobblestones in the college, a handsome man was walking forward calmly.He wore a pair of sunglasses, his thin lips were slightly pursed, and he looked indifferent, but he carried a chocolate gift bag in his right hand like a joke.

"That person looks familiar..."

"Who? Hey, God, it looks familiar..."

"...Is it...is it a bit like Mr. Auston Burtram?!"

"How is it possible? Although Bo Ai came to Paris to perform, you forgot that this time it was not Mr. Bertram who conducted the baton, but the guest conductor Mr. Charles Littles. Mr. Bertram probably Haven't come to Paris yet?!"

"That's right...how did Mr. Bertram suddenly come to our academy..."

……

When some students saw such an abrupt and handsome man, they all whispered in surprise.All these voices came to Min Chen's ears, but he still walked forward calmly - this kind of behavior made the people around even guess that "this person must not be Mr. Bertram".

But halfway through, Min Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks, and suddenly turned around to look at a girl who was seriously practicing the piano standing under the shade of a tree.

The girl had a ponytail and some freckles on her face, and she was practicing her tune very intently.It's just that her melody is really practiced...somewhat lacking, and she is always stumbling, making her face, which can only be considered delicate, covered with anxious sweat.

Sighing lightly, Min Chen still stepped forward and walked over with a calm tone: "In the third part of "Kons", you have some problems with your fingering. If you want to change the strings, it can indeed reduce the difficulty, but... The effect is too poor."

A deep and magnetic male voice rang out on the quiet lawn, the girl looked up at Min Chen in surprise, and the students who were whispering beside her also turned their heads to look at him in doubt.Under the shadow of the big tree, Min Chen simply took off his sunglasses, stretched out his right hand and pointed at the girl's fingering.

Let a conductor hear terrible music, and perhaps he can bear it for a while.But if it was a composer who heard his own piece played so badly, even Min Chen couldn't bear it.

And the moment Min Chen took off his sunglasses, the whole area around the big tree became silent for a moment.In the next second, excited voices sounded from various places——

"Oh my god, it's really Mr. Bertram! Lily, I'm right, it's really him!"

"My God, why did Mr. Bertram come here!"

"I was so lucky to actually meet Mr. Bertram!"

……

The commotion caused by Min Chen had already spread throughout the Paris National Conservatory of Music when he arrived at the building of the Violin Department.You know, although Master Reid Akkad is also a top music master in the world, compared with Min Chen, he is still a little less famous. The most important thing is...

Min Chen is handsome!

No matter which country they live in, good-looking people... really have an advantage!

So when Min Chen gently pushed open the door of Professor Akad's lounge, the arrogant and awkward little old man snorted coldly. he.

Min Chen: "..."

Min Chen gently placed the Veffdebruge gift bag he brought on Professor Akkad's table, and he sat down on the small sofa chair in front of the table in a casual manner. His dark and deep eyes sank, and he said in a low voice: "Reed, long time no see."

Professor Akad said in a cold tone: "Long time no see, long time no see, yes, long time no see, you have surrounded my college downstairs with several young and lovely female students."

Min Chen: "..."

A smile flashed in the dark phoenix eyes, facing an old friend, Min Chen naturally understood the other person's personality.He pushed the chocolate gift bag forward with his fingers, and said solemnly: "I came to you today because I have something to ask you."

Seeing the gift bag of Veffdebruge chocolates, Professor Arkad's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly stuffed the chocolates into his desk drawer.Then, he raised his head to look at Min Chen, and said, "Just tell me if you have anything to say, and declare first, I don't want to perform with the orchestra recently. If you want to invite me to be Bo Ai's special violinist, you don't need to say anything, Min .”

Reed Arkad had already put his mind to it and wanted to teach a student well, so Min Chen naturally knew about it a long time ago.And he came here, in fact, precisely for this purpose.

"I would like to recommend a student to you. He is very talented and hardworking. Now he is more than enough to be your student at his level."

Min Chen's tone was calm and calm. In his perception, Akad had been looking for a student recently, and now that he came to recommend him personally, it would be a matter of course without any hindrance.

But...to Min Chen's surprise, Professor Akad shook his head directly, and flatly refused: "No."

Junting's brows frowned suddenly, and Min Chen asked, "Why? He is very good, with outstanding talent and keen comprehension on the violin."

Akad took out a piece of chocolate from another drawer and put it directly in his mouth.After he finished enjoying himself happily, he looked at the man opposite who had already had a gloomy face, spread his hands helplessly, and said, "Min, it's not that I doubt your vision, but... have you seen this bag of chocolates?"

The handsome and elegant man was frowning at this moment. After hearing Akad's words, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the other's finger.I saw that it was the same pack of Veffdebruge chocolates, the same black gift bag, and even the same multi-flavor selection.

"What is this?" Min Chen raised his eyes and asked.

Akad shook his head and said, "My student bought it for me this morning. Min, I just accepted a student this morning. He is a wonderful boy. I don't have much experience in teaching students. Let me It is also impossible to teach two students, so I can only take one student."

Akad's words made Min Chen narrow his eyes slightly, only to hear him continue: "Look, the boss of Veffdebruge is your music fan, you don't even need to wait for a second to buy such a bag of chocolates. But I What about the lovely student? He needs to get up early and stand in line for two hours, or even three hours, just to buy a gift for me as a teacher. He is a good boy, Min, and I will not give up on him because of you. "

In the past 30 years, Min Chen has never been rejected by others, especially... especially in the field of classical music.No one will doubt his vision and hearing, as long as he recommends someone, he will always become a figure standing at the top of the music scene.

And this is the first time.

However, it was impossible for Min Chen to force Professor Akad to change students for him. Regarding this, he could only sigh a long sigh, knowing that he was one step late after all.

In Akad's lounge, the two chatted about the upcoming Bo Ai concert.When the sun set, Min Chen finally stood up and took off the custom-made black sunglasses from the neckline of his coat, but before he put them on, he stopped suddenly.

Min Chen looked at Akad seriously, and said, "Reid, I believe in your vision, your student must be an outstanding talent. I can have this honor to know... what is his name?"

Professor Akad was taken aback when he heard the words, then thought for a while, and grinned his white teeth with a smile: "Seven, his name is Seven."

"Xiao Qi...?" After muttering in a low voice, Min Chen didn't dwell on this issue any longer, he nodded to Akad, and said, "Well, Reed, see you later."

At this time, Professor Akad realized that there seemed to be something he hadn’t done, and he hurriedly shouted: “Wait a minute, Min! Do you still have tickets for Bai Ai’s concert the day after tomorrow? I want to take my students to listen to it.” , but you know your concert tickets are always hard to come by."

This question made Min Chen stunned for a moment. After a long time, he nodded slightly: "Well, I will ask Daniel to give you the ticket tomorrow."

Professor Arkad nodded with a smile.

And when Daniel learned that he was going to deliver a ticket to that strange old man in Akad the next day, he widened his blue eyes and said in disbelief: "Auston!!! I asked a few days ago How did you tell me when you need to spare a few tickets for others? You said, you don’t have any friends who want to come to the concert, so I don’t need to keep tickets!”

"What now!!!"

Once Daniel is too surprised or too crazy, he will directly call out the name "Auston".

Regarding this, Min Chen raised his head to look at Daniel, his eyes were calm, and he said calmly, "I remember... If it is my family members, there will always be more than three seats reserved for them, right?"

"..." Daniel was speechless for a moment, and finally said: "Family...well, you want Akad and his students...to sit in the same box on the second floor as you?"

As the chief permanent conductor and music director of the orchestra, as long as Min Chen is willing, at least one box on the second floor will be opened for him for free in every concert of Bo Ai.And in such an independent and secluded space, at least four people can be accommodated.

Min Chen never liked to use his privileges in the past, but this time... Daniel was also very surprised.He whispered, "Min, even if the other party is Reed Arcade, you don't have to do this, do you? I thought you would never use this authority in your life."

Under the gentle and brilliant sunset in Paris, Min Chen raised his head slightly and looked towards the far west.I saw the gorgeous purple-red clouds rendering the sky into a beautiful Garden of Eden. The scene was so magnificent that even Min Chen couldn't help but stare at it for a long time.

"He thinks...his students will be better than Qi Mu? I really want to see it too..."

Daniel touched his head and asked, "Hey, Min, what did you just say? What do you want to see?"

"It's nothing." Min Chen shook his head, and said in a low voice, "Remember, send an invitation letter to Akade tomorrow."

After hearing the bad news, Daniel completely forgot what Min Chen said to himself just now, he held his head in pain: "God, Min... I really don't want to see that old man in Akade! He always laughs at me My beautiful hair, how dare he say that I have too little hair and is at risk of middle age baldness! He must be jealous of my thick hair!"

Min Chen: "..."

Under the same steaming sunset sky, Qi Mu is arranging everything in the small apartment properly, even the refrigerator is full.

After all of this was done, he finally relaxed on the soft sofa and said with emotion: "Tomorrow... I will officially go to the academy..."

"I don't know... what kind of course it will be..."
