Chapter four hundred and fifty seventh(1/2)
At the request of his junior brother, Yang Jingxing played two more Beethoven sonatas, and then Chopin's Torrent etude. After listening to Torrent, Shang Haokun pondered as if he had listened to each of the previous pieces, while Li Yingzhen played some
Let’s briefly explain it.
After thinking about it for a long time this time, Shang Haokun finally agreed to comment: "You play this song a bit like Kissin... maybe the weight is more prominent... This is your age advantage."
Yang Jingxing smiled: "I see you are so thin, you need to eat more and exercise more."
Now the parents liked it: "Yes, yes, did you hear what senior brother said? That's so right!"
An Xin handed a tissue, Yang Jingxing took it and wiped a little sweat on his forehead, and said to Shang Haokun: "Your senior sister may not have the advantage over me in this piece, but senior sister An Xin plays Debussy well, Xinting World
Chopin is also very good and worth learning."
Shang Haokun looked upright: "It's far worse than you. Chen Qunguan and the others are far worse than you."
Although An Xin and Yu Xinting were not too embarrassed and angry, Yang Jingxing was unhappy and said seriously: "Your starting point is completely wrong. Music is not a competition. It's not that I am any better than you, but I may have my own advantages.
And if you are willing to refer to it, I will play it for you. The same goes for the senior sisters, and I also learn from them sometimes..."
Shang Haokun was impatient: "I know that if a threesome is together, I will be my teacher!"
Yang Jingxing smiled again: "Yes, it's very good."
The parent looked a little disappointed but pleased and said to Li Yingzhen: "I am convinced that he can play better than him..."
Shang Haokun interrupted his mother's confession: "Play the black keys etude again."
Yang Jingxing laughed: "My concert will be expensive..."
Shang Haokun said nothing nonsense: "How much does it cost?"
Yang Jingxing continued to laugh: "But you are a junior fellow student. Professor Li attaches great importance to the unity of the disciples. I dare not not play."
Li Yingzhen agreed: "Let's play another song for class."
After playing one of Chopin's black key etudes, Shang Haokun began to taste it again, and then said in a matter-of-fact manner: "These few songs just now... you can rank among the top three in the world, right now."
Yu Xinting and An Xin laughed, Li Yingzhen also laughed, and Yang Jingxing was helpless: "Here we go again, this is not..."
Shang Haokun argued loudly in a child's voice: "I have my own evaluation standards, and I'm not saying that you are in the top three in everything!"
Yang Jingxing nodded: "I understand. I am in the top three. If you surpass me, you will be first or second. You might as well say that I am the best in the world and give yourself a high hat..."
The parents advised Yang Jingxing: "Don't argue with him. Why are you talking to a child like that..."
Shang Haokun signaled his mother to shut up and stared at Yang Jingxing in interest: "Don't think I'm young. I've listened to live performances and CDs... not necessarily much less than you. I listen to it for three hours a day and practice at least five
hours, birthdays are all the same..."
Yang Jingxing was not so modest when facing children. He interrupted and asked, "Have you heard me play before?"
Shang Haokun was at a loss for words, but he still showed an aura of unwillingness to admit defeat. He thrust out his chest several times and stiffened his neck at Yang Jingxing.
Yang Jingxing was very rude: "There are so many people who practice piano in the world, but you only know the masters and great performers. You need to broaden your horizons."
Li Yingzhen nodded: "What senior brother said makes sense."
Shang Haokun turned his head, thought about it unhappily, then looked at Yang Jingxing and asked, "Then why do you practice piano?"
Yang Jingxing said: "Because my teachers care about me, my classmates help me, and my family supports me, I try my best to be worthy of them. I have never set my goal of ranking in the world or surpassing anyone."
When his son was in trouble, the parent thought about it and persuaded him: "Brother, you have a point, so don't argue."
Shang Haokun obviously didn't care about his parents and continued to argue with Yang Jingxing: "It's not a contradiction at all!"
Yang Jingxing was more patient: "You understand the truth very well, so assuming you really take me as your goal to practice piano, if you judge by your own standards that day and surpass me, who will be the happiest?"
Shang Haokun said: "You are the most unhappy anyway."
Yang Jingxing laughed with everyone and said, "Then are you the happiest?"
Shang Haokun tilted his head and said casually, "Maybe."
Yang Jingxing asked his parents: "Is mom happy?"
The parent is in a dilemma: "It's too early to talk about this now."
Yang Jingxing then hypothesized to Shang Haokun: "Or if you don't bother to aim for me, but keep learning and accumulating practice, constantly surpassing yourself, and surpassing yourself every day, then every day your teacher can be happy for you, your mother can be happy for you, and you
You can be happy yourself..."
Shang Haokun was really disdainful: "I know, mentality, don't treat me like a child!"
Yang Jingxing laughed again: "And it's very difficult to surpass me, not to mention I'm only in the top three, not first."
Shang Haokun regretted: "I kept it secret."
Yang Jingxing smiled so proudly: "Well, since I'm so good, I'll give you a lesson and let the professor take a break."
Shang Haokun nodded readily this time: "Okay, okay."
Yang Jingxing asked: "Has the professor ever scolded you?"
Shang Haokun shook his head.
Yang Jingxing sympathized: "I used to get scolded every day, but I didn't get any less until I became one of the top three in the world. You are miserable."
The parents were worried again: "Don't scare him."
Shang Haokunfan: "We have class, you get out!"
Li Yingzhen looked like she didn't want to stay: "Yang Jingxing, please pay attention, children have very strong self-esteem."
Yang Jingxing asked Shang Haokun: "You are a man, right?"
Shang Haokun still felt a little guilty and nodded sheepishly.
Yang Jingxing said: "I never take classes with men. If it weren't for the sake of Professor Li and the two senior sisters, I wouldn't give you classes."
The parent turned around: "You said these..."
Shang Haokun was disdainful: "I understand, I understand, just say that senior sister is beautiful."
Li Yingzhen got angry: "Yang Jingxing!" Yu Xinting's smile disappeared.
Yang Jingxing quickly said seriously: "Class, class."
Actively preparing, when they heard the door close, Yang Jingxing and Shang Haokun looked back together. Yang Jingxing gave a thumbs up: "If you have taste, you can't practice piano well if you don't have taste. Are there many beautiful girls in your class?"
Shang Haokun is much more of an artist: "Not to mention this... you are still in the top three! I have reviewed the basics at home."
Yang Jingxing asked: "Come for a big dinner directly?"
Shang Haokun nodded: "I have been practicing the law of average recently."
Yang Jingxing greeted: "Two beautiful junior sisters, let's study the law of averages with our junior brother."
An Xin's helpless look made Yu Xinting seem uncomfortable.
Shang Haokun looked at his senior sister and asked Yang Jingxing openly, "Do you have a girlfriend?"
Yang Jingxing said seriously: "You can ask senior brother this question casually? I can only ask you."
Shang Haokun hurriedly said: "Let's start, volume 1, song 7, 852..."
From the beginning of class, Yang Jingxing was no different, because Shang Haokun was close to Yu Xinting and An Xin in terms of the performance of the Equal Law, so it was convenient to start the class. At least when Shang Haokun said yes repeatedly, Yu Xinting and An Xin were also
Nod occasionally.
Shang Haokun is not a genius yet, but he has extraordinary enterprising spirit. When Yang Jingxing points out a shortcoming, he has to pass the test immediately, but it is definitely not that easy. At this time, the advantages of undergraduates are revealed. Yu Xinting and An Xin compete against each other.
Correction of details is much faster.
In order not to let backward talents hold back, Yang Jingxing advised Shang Haokun to remember it first, then practice it later, and go through it first before talking about it.
An Xin also lied to her junior brother: "Do you know how rare it is for the top three in the world to give you a lesson? You are still holding on to one point."
Yu Xinting echoed: "That's right, it takes a long time for us to meet each other. You can't help it because you are small, but it will be fine when you grow up."
Shang Haokun was not that easy to deceive. Seeing that Yang Jingxing asked An Xin and Yu Xinting to play too much, he protested: "You are giving me lessons!"
Yang Jingxing asked: "Is it worse than you? Then why don't you learn?"
There was only one break in the three-hour course. Parents came in in a hurry, brought fruits, and asked their children: "Brother, is it okay to have class?"
Shang Haokun nodded: "It's worthy of the name!"
Yang Jingxing also responded: "He has very strong understanding and memory skills. I think this is the right path."
The parents were happy: "That's good. In fact, we don't expect him to make money playing the piano. He won't be able to use up the family's assets in a few lifetimes, and there is a fund for his whole life after he turns 18..."
Yang Jingxing was so jealous that he encouraged Shang Haokun: "A man should rely on himself, not at home."
After five o'clock, a group of people sent Shang Haokun and his son away. Only then did Shang Haokun remember to ask Yang Jingxing when the concert would be held and he would go to support it.
Yang Jingxing said: "There may be one in the school rehearsal center next semester."
Yu Xinting and An Xin laughed, and Shang Haokun was angry: "Why are you laughing? Don't judge heroes based on success or failure..."
Dinner at Li Yingzhen's house had become a permanent fixture, so Yang Jingxing called Qi Qingnuo. Fortunately, Qi Qingnuo couldn't get away. Yang Jingxing also talked about boring things like meeting a junior brother,
Qi Qingnuo decided not to meet today.
The dinner was not exquisite and luxurious, but it was sumptuous. A few men drank a glass of health wine, while An Xin and Yu Xinting served the food.
