After Yang Jingxing went upstairs, he went directly to the conference room to wait. Although it was almost time, the staff was still making the final detailed arrangements, and none of the participants arrived.

The staff was polite to Yang Jingxing: "Wait a moment, they should be here soon. Come and sit in the office for a while."

Yang Jingxing pointed: "The name is wrong, it's cki, not ski." One of the three foreign composers among the eight members of the final jury of this competition is an old man in his seventies and a conductor. With his

Given his fame, the appearance fee is probably not low.

The staff hurriedly checked it, and then thanked Yang Jingxing while reprinting: "...Would you like some tea?"

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "You are busy, I will do it myself."

The first people Yang Jingxing waited for, who consciously sat on the second ring of the conference table, were four members of the competition organizing committee, He Hongchui and two off-campus musicians, who were also judges of the preliminary competition.

He Hongchui introduced the students to the seniors, who did not inquire about Yang Jingxing's results because according to the competition regulations, the entries were unsigned, so the judges were not supposed to know the author of the work.

After a while, Vice President Tian Jiezhi and his female graduate student Wang Qi came with several participating composers. In addition to Yang Jingxing, there were supposed to be five other composers from all over the world, but the Japanese ones could not come.

Everyone chatted first. They were all artists. They spoke softly and were as calm as water. Some people mistakenly thought that Yang Jingxing was a staff member. As a senior sister, Wang Qi did not introduce herself to others. She seemed to be a very enthusiastic person who was enjoying the scene.

Finally, a large group of more than a dozen people, including the organizing committee and the final judging panel headed by Tian Jiezhi and He Hongchui, arrived, and the conference room suddenly became lively.

Everyone took their seats. The real guests were the judges of the finals. They all respected them. Wang Qi served the tea and water, and he was proficient in English.

Tian Jiezhi, director of the Organizing Committee and Art Committee of this year's Chime Bell Awards, spoke first, giving a unified welcome and then introducing each guest one by one. Although the guests were all well-known musicians in terms of their achievements, after all, there were still ignorant people like Yang Jingxing.

Tian Jiezhi's English is just okay. At least a few words of welcome and respect can be understood by the foreigners, which relieves the school of the pressure of translation.

After welcoming for a while, Tian Jiezhi began to report on the brilliant results achieved by everyone's concerted efforts.

This competition received a total of nearly 300 large-scale works from various orchestras in Europe, America, and Asia, including more than 40 symphonies, more than 50 concertos, and more than 20 symphonic poems... and various new ones.

The proportion of music-themed works is getting larger and larger, which is a great progress. It shows that the Chime Award is advancing with the times and has international influence.

When Tian Jiezhi introduces the scale and level of the competition, he will select key content and repeat it in English. For example, the competition has so far received detailed reports from important domestic and foreign media, and has received the attention of famous musicians...

Judging from the appearance of foreign friends, the scale of the competition has indeed become international, and they are also one of the powerful proofs.

After Tian Jiezhi stated the glory of the competition and received applause, he invited He Hongchui to come and talk about it. He Hongchui first talked about the regulations of the competition, such as the strict requirements for the works of the competition and the detailed setting of the selection process...

He Hongchui didn't seem to know English. In addition to emphasizing that the entries must be absolutely original, He Hongchui said two words: abso lu tlyo day ginal.

After explaining the rules, when He Hongchui was about to start talking about the finals, Tian Jiezhi stood up: "I would like to add that Director He may have forgotten and didn't mention it. Translate it well... There are still certain rules in the competition, and the required works are

It has not been publicly performed or published in any form, and it has not won any prize in other competitions. This is also very important to the fairness of the competition..."

He Hong looked down at Yang Jingxing, who was listening very carefully.

After the head of the composition department completed his task, it was the chairman of the jury's turn to speak. He was not a foreign friend, but a first-class composer in the Puhai Symphony Orchestra. Although he was in his fifties or sixties and had made many artistic achievements, he

This judging experience is still full of joy, with the innovation of music forms and themes...

Then, Tian Jiezhi invited Wang Qi, one of the contestants in this competition, to talk about his feelings and experiences on behalf of the participating composers. Wang Qi talked eloquently, with a higher proportion of English than his native language, and expressed his opinions on the competition on behalf of the majority of contestants.

Yearning and satisfaction...

In less than an hour, the symposium ended. Everyone should have understood the situation and spirit. See you tomorrow night. Yang Jingxing had no interest in socializing and went to say goodbye to He Hongchui. The teacher agreed.

Qi Qingnuo was waiting downstairs, as if he wanted to get to know a few more people: "Where are they?"

Yang Jingxing said: "No handsome guy, no good looks, let's go... I told you to wait for me in the Beilou."

Qi Qingnuofan: "I can't sit still."

Yang Jingxing: "I miss you so much..."

It was a bit difficult to continue having fun as promised. Although Qi Qingnuo completely agreed that the ranking did not matter to Yang Jingxing, and was willing to think that this matter was not a big deal, she just couldn't let go completely.

Qi Qingnuo certainly didn't want to think that he was abnormal: "...if I was bullied, could you remain indifferent?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I was not bullied, and you were not indifferent either."

Qi Qingnuo nodded: "Okay, if I am bullied, I think it is insignificant and not worth mentioning. Are you the same as me?"

Yang Jingxing thought for a moment: "Let's put it this way, if I had to choose between the first place in the competition and you who have never been held by others, I will definitely choose you who have never been held by others. The first place in the ten hundred competitions.

I still choose you."

Qi Qingnuo's attention was diverted. The girl looked at Yang Jingxing for a while and asked, "You care so much? It's just holding hands."

Yang Jingxing said: "No, I just want to show that I don't care about this matter.

Qi Qingnuo asked again: "You don't care at all?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Of course I don't care at all. At least 80,000 yuan. If you are willing to spend 80,000 yuan to buy something, it must be of some value."

Qi Qingnuo was led by Yang Jingxing, thinking as he walked, and then said: "I am willing to use all my... money to buy your past."

Yang Jingxing was shocked: "You care so much?"

Qi Qingnuole: "I regard money as dung."

The two of them laughed evilly and started to walk happily, but Qi Qingnuo figured it out after a while: "No, you distracted me, that's not the point..."

Yang Jingxing admitted that if Qi Qingnuo was really bullied, he would definitely not be able to let it go, but: "...if you are booed when you sing, or someone says you are not good-looking at all, I am not afraid of Nono being angry.

To tell you the truth, I don’t care at all, I just let them go.”

Qi Qingnuo smiled with some difficulty: "Do you need to praise yourself so much?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Especially last night, I had..."

"That's enough!" Qi Qingnuo stopped him sternly, "If you don't bring it up again, it will be gone in the future!"

It seemed that Yang Jingxing was choked by the stockings.

Do whatever you have to do. Yang Jingxing didn't even dare to mention going back to his apartment. He didn't send Qi Qingnuo home until nine o'clock in the evening. He went to the bar for a walk and sang two songs by himself. Liu Caijing was still revising the songs.

, Yang Jingxing told him not to rush, knowing that they have a lot of arrangements now, after all, they only have a small fixed salary.

On Sunday morning, Yang Jingxing went to school to teach An Xin and received a call from Jiajia's father, inviting him to his home for lunch or dinner. He also invited Yu Xinting because the couple had made up their minds to buy a new house.

Yang Jingxing didn't have time to eat, but he called his father. The father and son made it very clear. However, Uncle Chen, who bought a house not long ago, still called Yang Jingxing himself to ask Yang Jingxing whether the person who wanted to buy the house was a true friend, otherwise the difference would be quite big.

.

Yang Jingxing confirmed that they have a good relationship and hopes that Uncle Chen will take care of him as much as possible.

Uncle Chen agreed, but he also joked that if Yang Jingxing had more friends, he would be in a difficult situation.

After a while, Jiajia's mother called again and said that the salesperson had contacted them and that they could view the house at any time. As for the price, they had not yet been informed.

Jiajia's mother was very embarrassed, knowing that Yang Jingxing had helped a lot, but: "A square meter is less than 100 yuan, which is more than 10,000 yuan, which is more than half a month's income for the couple. In our situation, we must live a careful life. Teacher Yang understands

of……"

Yang Jingxing couldn't tell the truth and could only say that he had tried his best. Jiajia's mother also expressed that she was relieved.

Seeing Yang Jingxing coming in and out, An Xin felt embarrassed: "If you are busy, just find time."

Yang Jingxing explains.

An Xin was surprised: "So courageous... I didn't listen to Xin Ting."

Yang Jingxing said: "Xinting doesn't know. They have just decided that since there is a buyer here, they may have to rent a house for a while."

An Xin nodded: "Oh...will I live next door to you or something?"

…

Yu Xinting loved studying, so she waited in the piano room until An Xin and Yang Jingxing finished class to have lunch together, because it was her turn in the afternoon.

An Xin and Yu Xinting were intimate: "Good news, I'll tell you when you treat me."

Yu Xinting immediately became alert: "What?" She looked at Yang Jingxing.

Yang Jingxing said: "I don't think it's good news."

Yu Xinting shook An Xin's hand: "You said... I'll invite you."

An Xin said: "Jiajia's family bought a new house, guess where it is?"

Yu Xinting was surprised: "They have only lived here for a few years, and they spent a lot of money on renovations."

An Xin comforted: "It won't reduce your salary... Guess where to buy it?"

Yu Xinting asked: "Is it close?"

Secretly smiling: "Close, very close, very close!"

Yang Jingxing said: "Plan to buy together with me. It won't be as close as it is now, and it won't be convenient for you to see Panpan."

Yu Xinting opened her mouth: "...your new house?"

Yang Jingxing nodded.

An Xin smiled: "Is it close?"

But judging from Yu Xinting's expression, this may not necessarily be good news. The girl didn't have a big reaction and seemed to want to think about it: "...They, it seems, don't have that much money."

Yang Jingxing said: "The houses here are for sale, and the small apartments over there are not expensive."

Yu Xinting nodded: "Oh."

Yang Jingxing said: "I'll treat you to this meal. After we move, we will still have old neighbors."
