At the same table, let's make a bet

At the meeting on Monday morning, Chen Haiqing yawned and listened to the principal's impassioned speech, while trying to hide in Xie An's shadow. Suddenly, he felt a tightness in his waist. Chen Haiqing looked down at the familiar hands, and slowly turned his head to stare at Xie An.

Xie An lightly pinched his waist, and said with a smile: "Sishabai's waist is so thin, he needs to eat more and exercise more."

Chen Haiqing pursed her lips, turned her head and silently pushed her hands away, suppressing her sudden rapid heartbeat, and concentrated on listening to the principal's speech.

The principal's speech finally ended, Chen Haiqing breathed out, and heard the host say: "The following two announcements will be broadcast.

"The first one is at [-]:[-] noon today, please come to the conference room on the first floor of the first floor for a meeting.

"Second, tomorrow from 01:30 noon to [-]:[-] is the recruitment of new members of the Student Union and the Self-management Committee. I hope that students who are willing to participate will arrive at the conference room on the first floor to participate in the selection. This morning meeting is over, please All classes leave in an orderly manner."

Chen Haiqing's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he lost all sleepiness, thinking about how to pass the selection.

When Xie An heard the dismissal, he put his hand on Chen Haiqing's shoulder and sighed: "I can't eat well at noon today."

Ever since Chen Haiqing told Chen Haiqing about her and Hei Zai, Chen Haiqing started eating at school.

And that night Xie An agreed to have a face-to-face interview the next day, but the next day Xie An said that we would talk again next time, and then dragged it until this week.

Chen Haiqing sighed after thinking about it, Xie An raised his eyebrows and said, "You want to have dinner with me so much... Don't sigh, it's a big deal that I'll be late at noon, wait until you finish eating!"

Chen Haiqing shook his head, pursed his lips and said nothing.

At noon, Xie An ran back to the class after the meeting, and then called out the monitor, Sun Yutian, and the deputy monitor, Cheng Jinrong, who was at his front desk.

The three stood in a circle in the corridor, Xie An said in a low voice: "This meeting is about the next week's choir competition, I want you to discuss what to sing and when to practice.

"The school didn't give a scope for what to sing, and since the chorus festival will have a midterm exam next week, the training time can't be too long. What do you guys think?"

Sun Yutian pondered for a while, blinked her big eyes and said: "The training time can be set at noon on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, as well as self-study classes on Thursday, plus a music class every week. Is this okay? "

Xie An nodded and said, "The time is OK, what about the song?"

Cheng Jinrong yawned and said, "Let's choose a few songs and let them vote? Just let them choose what song they will choose."

Xie An nodded and said, "The question is which ones to choose?"

Sun Yutian bit his lips and said, "Wouldn't it be better to say goodbye to the gardenias when they bloom?"

Xie An said: "I also think it's better to relax a little bit. These two songs should be included as candidates. What do you think of the days and weare on Beijing East Road?"

Cheng Jinrong: ...The big brother's selection of songs is really fresh and refined...

She hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother, this is a chorus, not a solo show, and it's not a matter of several people singing."

Xie An frowned and wanted to say something, Sun Yutian said: "On Beijing East Road, fifty or so people may not be able to sing well, and no matter how well you sing alone, there is no way to save the audience.

"weare, there is Japanese in it, even if you sing all the Japanese parts, not everyone can accept this song. Right?"

Xie An was convinced, closed his eyes hard, nodded and said, "Then do you have any recommendations? I don't listen to many large-scale choruses."

Cheng Jinrong thought for a while and said, "Just these two songs, let them go back and vote in the group today, listen to them well in these two days, and start rehearsing the day after tomorrow."

Xie An frowned and said, "By the way, what about our class accompanist and conductor?"

Cheng Jinrong raised her hand with a smile and said, "I know how to conduct! Ask about the accompaniment in class?"

Xie An nodded and said, "That's no problem. Let's go back to work and rest. Thank you."

Cheng Jinrong waved his hands and jumped into the class, while Sun Yutian smiled at him, walked into the class and told the students about the training time.

Xie An sighed, walked back to his seat, and saw Chen Haiqing biting his lip and rubbing his arms.

Xie An frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Did you hit it?"

Chen Haiqing shook his drooping head, as if he hadn't slowed down yet, he murmured in a low voice, "I'm numb from sleeping..."

Xie An: ...

Raising his hand to rub his head, Chen Haiqing looked up blankly, Xie An shook his head, took out a notepad and wrote something.

Chen Haiqing yawned and listened for a while, then fell asleep on his stomach.

At noon on Wednesday, Xie An was squatting at the entrance of the music classroom, eating bread. After finishing his lunch in 5 minutes, he ran to the next door to find the music teacher to borrow the classroom key, and then sat inside and took out his morning homework to write.

Fifteen minutes later, Sun Yutian and Cheng Jinrong walked into the classroom, Cheng Jinrong smiled and said, "Thank you, Culture and Art Committee."

Xie An smiled and shook his head without speaking.

At 12:30, all the people finally came. Xie An stretched his muscles and bones, put away his homework, stood up and said, "Then let's line up first? You line up from high to low first, with men and women in two lines."

After 10 minutes, Xie An was very satisfied with the formation of more than 50 people in four rows, and then said: "We divided the high and low pitches. The first row of male and female students is low-pitched, which is the current one and three rows. Then the remaining two The platoon is high-pitched. We all know that the final decision of our class is farewell? Have you heard the recordings posted in the group before?"

Many people nodded, Xie An turned to Chen Haiqing who was beside the piano and said, "Please play the treble part, I will lead them to sing."

Chen Haiqing nodded, looked back at the score, and started playing.

After the song was over, Xie An motioned him to play the bass.

After listening to the bass singing, he frowned and said, "Sing it louder yourself. The first time is the high-pitched solo, and the second time is the low-pitched solo. Haiqing, accompaniment."

Chen Haiqing nodded, pursed his lips and bounced.After listening to it twice, Xie An frowned, and said: "The high-pitched one is okay, but if you don't let go, it feels like you're going to die from singing. You can try to let the sound go up from the bottom, and then open your mouth as wide as possible. , don’t be shy. I may not express it very well, you guys try it. Come on, high-pitched accompaniment.”

Xie An frowned after listening, and said: "I will lead you to practice twice, and then you do it once by yourself, pay attention to the feeling."

After several times, Xie An felt that it was barely enough, so he continued: "Next is the bass part, you have a lot of questions.

"First, the voice is too low, I can't hear what you are singing at all.

"Second, the out-of-tune is a bit serious, don't listen to how the people around you sing, you should remember your own pitch.

"Third, the rhythm is wrong, you sing faster and faster, follow the music, don't be influenced by anyone. I will lead you to sing it twice, and you sing it again by yourself."

Someone from below suddenly shouted: "Xie An, are you in high notes or low notes?"

Xie An frowned and said, "I have a high voice."

The man complained: "The bass is too difficult to sing, and someone has to carry it, why don't you sing the bass?"

Xie An frowned and thought for a while: "It's fine, I don't care. Don't always think about letting me lead it, you have to sing it yourself. Come and try it, Haiqing bass accompaniment."

After three times, Xie An was still a little dissatisfied, but felt that this was barely enough to say: "Sing the high and low chorus once, I will sing the low note, and the high note you all keep your own tune. Come, one, two, three, let's go!"

After the first pass, Xie An's face turned dark. He frowned and said, "Where's the treble? Why didn't the treble disappear? And the bass didn't come out much. Let's start again, find out how you feel."

The second time, Xie An's face became even darker, Chen Haiqing stood up and said, "Sun Yutian, please take them to practice, Xie An, Cheng Jinrong, I have something to say to you."

Xie An took a few deep breaths, nodded, and followed Cheng Jinrong to the door.

Chen Haiqing bit her lip and said cautiously: "Well...I think, Xie An, why don't you switch with Cheng Jinrong? I think your voice is too prominent, not suitable for a chorus, and...they...rely too much on you..."

Cheng Jinrong echoed: "I think so too. I'll teach you how to conduct these few days, so stop singing. As long as you sing, everyone will follow your tune."

Xie An frowned and thought for a while, then nodded and said, "I see. Then let's go in and talk to them?"

Chen Haiqing nodded, and gave Xie An a piece of candy while Cheng Jinrong was not paying attention, Xie An smiled at him and put the candy in his mouth.

Entering the classroom, Xie An said solemnly: "Now I will be the conductor, and Cheng Jinrong will sing for me. Try again."

Someone in the crowd shouted: "Xie An, why don't you sing so well?"

There were still a few people who responded, Xie An frowned and wanted to say something, Cheng Jinrong said directly: "The chorus is about the chorus, what's the use of him singing well alone? The most taboo thing about chorus is that one person takes away all the audience eyes, that is a solo.

"When you practiced before, you all unconsciously followed Xie An's tune. How can you sing without your own tune? From now on, each of you only needs to remember the tune you want to sing. Start from the beginning, I am Bass, but I won't lead you to sing, but I will sing with you as a small part of you. Come, 1, 2, 3, sing!"

Xie An leaned against the wall with his arms around his chest and listened to it, and smiled. Although he didn't sing, he still felt very happy...

The result of being particularly happy at noon was that he fell asleep in the Chinese class. Even Sun Yutian, who used to be serious in class, would sink his head little by little while listening to the class, and then suddenly raised his head.

Not to mention Xie An, who was busy with recording demonstrations last night, so he and Chen Haiqing stayed late to discuss the connection of the accompaniment.

So much so that when he was in Chinese class, he fell asleep holding his math homework.

Chen Haiqing originally wanted to do homework for a while, but seeing that everyone was sleeping, he persisted for 2 minutes and then lay down on the table.

In the evening self-study, Xie An finished his homework, twirled his pen for a while, then got up and walked to the platform outside the class door, lying on the railing in a daze.

Chen Haiqing bit her lip and silently walked beside him.

Xie An turned to look at him and said, "What's the matter, silly white? Are you done with your homework?"

Chen Haiqing nodded and said: "It's finished. Xie An, if you don't want to tell me about your junior high school, I won't ask in the future."

Xie An's complexion sank, he turned his head to look into the distance and said, "I don't know what to say, to be honest, I don't know how to face myself in junior high school. Later, I will tell you when I am ready. of."

Chen Haiqing nodded obediently, and then said with a smile: "But you will forget it in a few days... You are a fish."

Xie An raised the corner of his mouth, glanced at him and said, "I'll write it down. By the way, how are your sister and Hei Zi?"

Chen Haiqing held his head and thought for a while and said: "They are very good. They have become each other's motivation. I feel that this is the best state of love. Both of them are quite rational."

Xie An nodded and said, "That's pretty good. Heizai was very nice to me when he was in junior high school. By the way, are you ready for the selection at noon tomorrow?"

Chen Haiqing raised the corners of his mouth, and his face was full of self-confidence: "I asked about last year and the year before last, mainly to see the on-the-spot reaction, and I think I'm okay. I must join the self-management committee."

Xie An let out a chuckle and said, "Okay, okay, I've never seen you with such fighting spirit. I'll accompany you tomorrow. Shall we go in? It's a bit cold outside."

Chen Haiqing nodded, and entered the classroom with Xie An.

Neither of them noticed a little girl quietly standing behind the pillars on the roof, staring at Xie An as she entered the classroom.
