fully control

Objectively speaking, Xiao Ran and Ren Zhongxia have their own advantages and disadvantages. Ren Zhongxia is superior in his gorgeous skills and passionate music style. His piano sound is like the strongest wine. The gorgeous piano sound rushes into your ears, nose and throat. It is strong enough and spicy enough , The whole thing is hearty and refreshing.But Xiao Ransheng has delicate emotions, and the style of music is poetic and picturesque, like a forest, seemingly peaceful and far-reaching, but it can contain infinite life, full of emotion and vitality.

Xiao Ran is not as good as Ren Zhongxia in terms of skills.This is not injustice, he originally had a fondness for playing the piano, he didn't work hard enough, and training to sharpen his skills was rare, and it was only natural that his skills were not as gorgeous as others.Ren Zhongxia's understanding and understanding of music is not as good as Lin Xiaoran's, but Xiao Ran's advantage is related to his own talent and character, and cannot be forced.It can be said that Xiao Ran's talent is unique among musicians.

Generally speaking, the styles of the two are very complementary. Although they both gave each other a little shock when they met each other, and then they were more interested in competing, but in this regard, I have to praise the teachers of the two for their good teaching. It is true that they compete for victory, but they are quite ancient. Ren Zhongxia will give Xiao Ran advice on many technical issues, and Xiao Ran will talk to the other party about his music perception and understanding, teaching and learning.Ren Zhongxia looked arrogant at first glance, but after getting to know him, he knew that he was self-confident rather than arrogant. Ren Zhongxia might have a bit of a young master's temper, but for a master of the same level as Li Ran, he didn't have his nostrils turned upside down. people.To sum it up in a simple sentence, the seniors have inherited the friendship of the seniors, and get along pretty well.

Although the competition is the focus of Xiao Ran's current life, Xiao Ran has not forgotten to go to class. He thinks that class is a time to relax. Besides, he knows all about music theory. In case a professor's on-demand words can help the masters What about the finishing touch?Xiao Ran went to class, and Ren Zhongxia could only grind the piano at the professor's house alone. I don't know if he was spoiled by the supplementary practice. Ren Zhongxia only stayed at Professor Guo's house for one day. I went to school with Xiao Ran—fortunately, in order to welcome the Rubinstein Masters, the school expanded a new piano room while renovating the concert hall, or bought, rented, or sponsored a batch of new pianos. Relieves the problem of instrument tension.

After Xiao Ran's class, he would usually go directly to the new piano room to find Ren Zhongxia.

Today, while people were still in the corridor, Xiao Ran heard the sound of a fiery piano coming from a certain piano room. Even though the two had known each other for only a few days, Xiao Ran knew that it was Ren Zhongxia without looking.There was another person's piano sound mixed with the fiery piano sound, obviously under Ren Zhongxia's strong aura, that piano sound was suppressed.

Following the sound, Xiao Ran turned to the corridor—ho!Onlookers packed a corridor.

It is the innermost two piano rooms, the doors are open door to door, and the two groups of piano sounds come out from their respective doors. On one side is Ren Zhongxia, and on the other side is a 24-year-old man with a pancake face, who is so excited compared to Ren Zhongxia Compared with the state where he seemed to be swaying freely, the sweat on the forehead of that one really gave people a sense of reluctance.

Xiao Ran huddled in the crowd and glanced to the left and right. The moment Ren Zhongxia's eyes met unintentionally, he happened to catch up with Ren Zhongxia playing a section of extremely difficult and intense Presto. Presto straight to the top...

Then, stop abruptly!

Momentary silence.

Then the crowd of onlookers suddenly started making a noise - this section was not finished at all, it is not an exaggeration to give up halfway, if this is a piano fight, Ren Zhongxia is equal to losing, you haven't finished playing the piece, don't worry about forgetting the score Or is there any reason, can it still be called a win?

As a result, Ren Zhongxia didn't feel ashamed of losing at all, so he stretched his arms and said, "It's so boring!" Then, he stood up and walked to the opposite room, and said to the other party in English, "It's no match, I lost It's okay." That tone, that angle of the chin, that look of 'boring', that corner of the mouth... No matter how you look at it, Xiao Ran feels that he needs to be beaten, and he despises his opponent by quitting the piano in the middle , can hit people even more than he completely completed that super difficult section!

Xiao Ran saw that the contestant's face was as dark as the floor, and he was so embarrassed that he couldn't get off the stage.However, after Ren Zhongxia 'admitted defeat', he turned around and took Xiao Ran out of the crowd, put his arms around Xiao Ran's neck and turned him into the piano room, talking to himself in a super loud English voice as he walked, "It takes no matter what to find an opponent. Look for a match!"

Ren Zhongxia abducted Xiao Ran and returned to his original piano room. The area around his heels blocked the sight of the crowd watching, his opponent's annoyance and all the noisy voices outside the door.

"Who is that?" Xiao Ran asked.Ren Zhongxia has only been in their school for a few days, and now they are fighting for revenge?

Ren Zhongxia didn't mind waving his arms, "I'm defeated! I met you last time in Berlin, and you dare to compete with me when you get sixth!" Ren Zhongxia put on an expression of eating a fly, "You said that if this is the second The little German guy asked me to single out in private and I will admit it, why are you unconvinced by your number one sixth dead stick?"

The Berlin Youth Piano Competition is also a very prestigious event. It is said that the sixth place, the level gap between Ren Zhongxia and Ren Zhongxia will never be too big, it will not be as obvious as it is today... Xiao Ran shrugged and understood, maybe the difference in piano skills between the two is not There is such a disparity shown, but it is a coincidence that the one who just chose a "Heroic Song" with a strong momentum and a majestic style, so once the momentum is suppressed by [-]%, the overall feeling is not a star and a half .It is in line with the emotional and soul debate between Xiao Ran and Ren Zhongxia's favorite music these two days.

It has been learned and used so quickly... Brother, you are too strong!

"Don't be in a daze for me, come here!" Ren Zhongxia put out his senior brother's money, he still had the anger provoked by that life-or-death stick in his heart, winning a stick is nothing to be proud of, if you can beat Xiao Ran... "Come to Chopin first "D-flat Major", let's see how I ravage you today!" Ren Zhongxia rolled up his sleeves and stared at Xiao Ran with a 'serious look'. "If I don't beat you, I can hardly be called a big brother!"

Two hours later, the two came out of the piano room one after the other, Xiao Ran looked at Ren Zhongxia with a smile, and said, "Junior Brother Ren..." The next second, Ren Zhongxia violently grabbed his neck and carried him out of the piano room.

There was no winner between the two, but whoever told Ren Zhongxia to speak first would lose if he didn't win.The two went straight to a dim sum shop in front of the school to buy sesame cakes. Ren Zhongxia was not interested in those sweet and soft things, but who told him to 'lose', he was responsible for paying the bill.

Because of that piano fight, Ren Zhongxia, who was originally here to play soy sauce, became famous in Xiao Ran's school. This is not surprising, but Ren Zhongxia never expected that the dead stick who was severely humiliated by him would also have a good reputation afterward. Bundle.It's also because some students in Xiao Ran's school think highly of themselves.Even if Quan Fengzhun was completely suppressed by Ren Zhongxia, to a large extent, Ren Zhongxia took advantage of the situation, and it did not mean that the gap in strength between them was so obvious.He is No.6 in the Berlin Youth Competition, how can he take it lightly?

It's a pity that more people only see the "potential" of the superficial difference, but not the real level of "power". They probably think that Quan Feng Zhun has nothing but appearances, and many people are a little eager to try.Think about it, if you can overwhelm a No.6 in the Berlin Youth Championship, does that mean you are also bla, bla...

In the end, just like Quan Fengzhun challenged Ren Zhongxia, those who challenged Quan Fengzhun ended up humiliating themselves.After going back and forth, in the end, Quan Fengzhun regained the strength and reputation that Quan Fengzhun should have.No matter how much Ren Zhongxia despises Quan Bangzi, he is the entanglement of No. 1 despising No. 6 in the Berlin Youth Competition. Can you be enough for him like an ordinary shrimp?Besides, they are all contestants of the Rubinstein Masters, and they are eligible to be nominated for the competition. Do you think there is only a limit of [-] years old?

With Ren Zhongxia and Quan Fengzhun as standards, ordinary students have a scale for the overall level of the Rubinstein Masters.As the masters competition approached, many contestants arrived one after another. In Ren Zhongxia's eyes, it is not an exaggeration to say that there are many stars.The new piano practice room is open 7x24 hours for those qualified for the competition, which is very convenient for practice, but in this way, the smell of gunpowder is already very strong before the competition starts.

Ren Zhongxia, the name of the shadow person of the tree, has fought a bloody way on the steps of the piano hall since he was a child. How many enemies have he met this time and how many enemies who have not been masked by the enemies have been advertised?Quan Bongzhun was not the first challenger to be trampled under his feet, nor would he be the last.In just four days, the new piano room was very lively. Ren Zhongxia used his gorgeous style to collide with five challengers successively. The crowds of onlookers became more and more each time, and the opponents became stronger each time, and the momentum also increased. As for Speaking of the result of the challenge... Just look at Ren Zhongxia's high tail.

There is no way, Ren Zhongxia's piano skills are absolutely nothing to say, in terms of winning with emotion and creating momentum with momentum, behind him is Lin Xiaoran, a dog-headed strategist?The brothers teamed up to set a trap for the challenger, using the opportunity to force him to sweat, and tried his best but failed to turn over.After going back and forth like this, it was Ren Zhongxia's fame that was fulfilled on the surface, but secretly using this method, the two of them touched more than half of the opponents who deserved attention.

"How about today?" After another challenge, Xiao Ran asked silently with his eyes.

Ren Zhongxia left the piano bench and the piano room, completely ignoring the onlookers and the opponents in the opposite piano room, without even saying hello, stretched his long hands around Xiao Ran's neck, and walked out with his tail cocked.After getting out of the crowd, he said in a low voice, "Do you think the gap is not that big?"

"Yeah." Xiao Ran nodded, but, "I think there seems to be some problem with his emotional harmony... Well, it feels... very standard, as if measured with a ruler, lacking passion?" This is just Xiao Ran's feeling, his level It's not to the extent that I can judge other people's ugly Yinmao, I just use my own strengths to measure and compare, and express a little feeling vaguely.

"His skills are average!" This was Ren Zhongxia's own feeling.

But it's very strange, since it's all average, why isn't the gap between the piano fights not as obvious as before?

"Heart quality!" The two looked at each other and spoke almost at the same time.

"Okay, mark a second-class yellow attention..."

"Can you be sure?"

"With the little Vietnamese guy Zhuyu in front, do you still have to be afraid of him?"

"Well...the Vietnamese players are really good." Xiao Ran nodded, the two of them added up and plotted against others behind their backs, and Ren Zhongxia didn't say that he could overwhelm him.

"Tch, I'm just talking casually," Ren Zhongxia frowned, "Can that barbarian compare to me?"

"It's alright, alright, Junior Brother Ren... Hurry up and go to the cafeteria, I really won't be able to buy food for a while..."

The two walked around the campus beating and beating.

Ren Zhongxia is a bit crazy, but it is not without reason that he is crazy. From the day he learned the piano, he has been struggling in the competition all the way.Therefore, even though he is still unable to make an accurate comment on the gains and losses, when facing these challengers, he is keenly aware that there is no opponent who puts him under the pressure when facing Lin Xiaoran, so there is a gap, so he I have a good idea of ​​the difficulty of winning the championship.

Xiao Ran has too little experience in this area, so every time he stepped on an opponent, Ren Zhongxia would secretly confess to Xiao Ran, at first he could describe his feelings in detail, but in the end, he only used half a sentence: "This person's level..." Ren Zhongxia made an indecent gesture - go and understand the spirit by yourself!

One and a half weeks before the preparation for the battle, it was like this. Today, after Ren Zhongxia stepped on another Malay opponent with a little reputation, he suddenly leaned on the piano with deep emotion, "When I finally overwhelm you, I will be the champion." ..."

With a shake of Xiao Ran's hand, a vibrato floated out.He looked up at Ren Zhongxia, and said seriously, "Junior Brother Ren..."

Thus, the furious Ren Zhongxia violently pushed Xiao Ran down on the piano bench by virtue of his height XXXX...

This Masters Tournament is really star-studded, and Ren Zhongxia, who can be ranked in the Asia-Pacific region, has basically seen it.But in the eyes of the students of this school, apart from the Ren Zhongxia and Quan Fengzhun whom they were familiar with the first time, the only ones who paid the most attention were the three contestants from their own school who were about to compete.Among them, Lin Xiaoran is the most famous.

Few students could distinguish their level from the sound of the piano, but everyone could see Ren Zhongxia's arrogance and publicity, and also saw Ren Zhongxia and Lin Xiaoran practicing the piano together, and some even saw it Ren Daxia was completely serious and cautious when facing Lin Xiaoran.So soon, the news that Ren Zhongxia and Lin Xiaoran were brothers from the same school spread like wildfire.

Although Lin Xiaoran's reputation is not obvious among the many players, it still attracted the attention of many people. Who said that Ren Zhongxia is too famous and the threshold is too high?Those who didn't dare to challenge Ren Zhongxia turned their finger on Lin Xiaoran.But in the end, the only outsider who could appreciate Xiao Ran's piano sound was Quan Fengzhun.

I don't know what kind of wretched mentality this guy has, after hearing that Xiao Ran is Ren Zhongxia's precious junior, he came to challenge Xiao Ran, in order to defeat Ren Zhongxia's junior to seek psychological balance?Ren Zhongxia didn't know the brain structure of this dead stick, but Ren Zhongxia sneered in his heart, and after hearing the intention, he opened the door wide to welcome people in.

He didn't stop it, this bastard was willing to find excitement three days before the game, why did he stop him?Although Ren Zhongxia has always been unconvinced by Xiao Ran, he quite admits that Xiao Ran's understanding of the music and the depth of his interpretation can almost hit a person's confidence index to a negative value.

"Quiet!" Ren Zhongxia whispered only when he opened the door and turned sideways.

Without Ren Zhongxia's warning, Quan Fengzhun didn't make a sound.No matter what his obscene motives were, the minimum etiquette was not lacking. Xiao Ran was playing "Moonlight Sonata", once Quan Fengzhun entered the door, he never moved his footsteps.

The technical difficulty of this piece is not high, but it focuses on the interpretation of extremely deep and complex emotions.A poet said that this piece of music reminded him of Lake Lucerne in Switzerland and the bright moonlight rippling on the lake.It sounds beautiful and artistic, but—no!This kind of understanding is the most shallow and straightforward understanding of this moonlight song.In fact, it represents melancholy, a sigh, a mixture of memory and contemplation, as if 'a silent voice suddenly rises from the depths of the invisible soul'.

Having said that, it is not an easy task to interpret the song to the shallow state of "moonlight as bright as water", let alone the deeper feelings of broken love and confusion.In many cases, it is more similar to the legendary realm, at least for young people in their twenties, the limitations of qualifications, experience and emotional experience make it too difficult for them to comprehend this level of depth, and after comprehension, they still have Using the sound of the piano to express this complex emotion again...

Xiao Ran only played the Moonlight song, a total of five or six minutes.Then Ren Zhongxia opened the door, and "respectfully sent" a challenger who had been deeply stimulated to leave, with a parting message: "Want to challenge Xiao Ran? This is a joke! His level is not even sure that I can win, you just say No." The .6 dead stick wants to overwhelm Xiao Ran?" The last sentence is too difficult to express in English accurately and despises the spirit, Ren Daxia directly speaks his native language.

Don't laugh at Ren Daxia's second-rate English mixed with Chinese and English. Anyway, the words spread with the undisguised volume. There are always three or two kittens passing by in the corridor of the piano room. Word spread.This rumor can be convincing in the end, one is that Ren Daxia did not deny it, and the other is that Quan Fengzhun was surrounded by crowds watching him being stimulated.

Xiao Ran's piece not only expresses feelings, but also represents a realm, a realm that requires extremely high talent and comprehension. It's not something you can reach the threshold by sitting in front of the piano 24 hours a day. high.It must be admitted that piano skills are very important, so important that many piano masters think that no skill means no music, but at the same time almost all piano masters have to admit that they must not take skills too seriously, otherwise they will become pure technician If you are at the level of a luthier, that is putting the cart before the horse.

Generally speaking, once the technique has been touched, it has to be slowly relegated to the second line. This seems to be a bit like the essence of swordsmanship mentioned in martial arts novels-the real swordsmanship is that everyone has no sword in his hand but has a sword in his heart. There is a sword, so all plants and trees are swords.It sounds mysterious and mysterious, but according to Confucianism and Taoism, it is probably similar to the meaning of "the great way is invisible".Ren Zhongxia is now at the stage where he has to 'forget' the skills he learned and finally develop his own style after he has mastered the skills. Only when he forgets the ostentatious flamboyance can he enter the state of a master without a sword in his hand but with a sword in his heart.This is a difficult bottleneck, which requires understanding and opportunities. If you break through, you will be able to reach a higher level. If you cannot break through, it will be difficult to become a master.Ren Zhongxia valued Xiao Ran so much, and liked to discuss piano practice with Xiao Ran so much, to a certain extent, the appeal of Xiao Ran's piano sound made him vaguely feel the opportunity.

Xiao Ran's situation is very special. He has taken a path of personal characteristics that is hard to come by for others, and it has something to do with his own character.Xiao Ran's thoughts on the piano and music are pure and clean, he is casual because of his love, and comprehends because of his casualness, so at the beginning of his introduction, Xiao Ran invisibly bypassed this piano practice from simple to complex, from complex to simplified The process is completely contained in the scene.Xiao Ran's technique is clear, pure and consistent from the beginning to the end, and with the continuous deepening of his understanding of music, he finally forms his own style.Comparing this way, Xiao Ran's current realm is a level higher than Ren Zhongxia's. It belongs to the other side where Ren Zhongxia is breaking through but has not yet fully succeeded. The two have their own styles, but they all lead to the same goal. If we really want to be serious, the gap is here.

This gap is very subtle, and it belongs to the kind that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words. Ren Zhongxia's gorgeous skills can cover up this gap.He couldn't tell the difference between him and Xiao Ran, but his sixth sense kept telling him that Xiao Ran's realm was very unusual and worth learning.The gap between Lin Xiaoran and Ren Zhongxia may only be discerned by those who are truly masters.

It stands to reason that Professor Guo and the others should be able to feel it at their level, but I don’t know if it’s because the fans of the authorities—all of them are lovers—have a sense of gain and loss and preferences, and Xiao Ran and Zhong Xia do have their own strengths and distinct characteristics. So that fine distinction is skipped.This is human nature, and because of this, Professor Guo and the others will be excluded from the Asia-Pacific jury for an important international competition such as the Rubinstein Masters, which is famous for its reputation and standards.
