Chapter 49 Electronic organ(1/2)

It was late autumn, and the temperature in the morning was also low. When Yang Jingxing arrived at school at seven o'clock, there were no people on the road. The car was driving a little too fast, picking up fallen leaves along the way.

After breakfast, Yang Jingxing went to the library and listened to a lot of famous erhu music. However, he couldn't find any modern playing methods or techniques. They were all antiques.

At ten o'clock there is a physical education class for boys, and the physical education teacher is also serious. The subject is the horizontal and parallel bars. Boys from several departments practice hard there, trying hard to complete the basic movements. It is also painful, because they are all artists, and they still have to play this.

Soon there will be exams for ideological and moral cultivation and legal foundation. The teacher also said that those who fail the exam will jeopardize the final assessment. This is not alarmist. The music school stipulates that students with poor grades will be expelled in their freshman year. There is already a precedent.

After the physical education class, we went to have lunch. Today, not only Yu Xinting and An Xin, but also Qi Qingnuo were waiting for Yang Jingxing. A few of them still ate stir-fried dishes. The three girls ordered food and discussed it for a long time before Yang Jingxing followed the arrangement.

Yu Xinting was very happy because yesterday she learned an electronic keyboard from Qi Qingnuo for a long time. Qi Qingnuo’s keyboard uses a Yamaha double row of keys, paired with a 25-key pedalboard, which is very powerful and very interesting to play.

Yang Jingxing said that he also wanted to make a set and asked Qi Qingnuo to give some advice. Qi Qingnuo said that there is a new one with excellent functionality and compatibility. It has more than 500 sounds and the effect is very good. Think about it

It’s so cool.

Yang Jingxing asked: "What about the price?"

Qi Qingnuo did some mental calculations: "If it's all together, it's more than 200,000 yuan. It's best to add an electric steel... If you want, I can take you there. It's a lot cheaper, but it will take a month or two to arrive."

Thank you Yang Jingxing.

After finishing lunch, Yang Jingxing boldly called his father to apply for funding. Yang Chengyi didn't even question it, but said directly: "I'll give you five hundred thousand, save it."

Yang Jingxing was very embarrassed: "It's not embarrassing, right?"

Yang Chengyi disdainfully said: "You're not even close!"

In the afternoon, Yang Jingxing went to the Modern Department to seek advice from Cheng Hao, the most famous electronic keyboard master in China. Cheng Hao is only in his thirties, but he has been famous for many years. He has participated in many international competitions and won awards, and he also has his own compositions and arrangements.

, can be regarded as a great talent. Unfortunately, the electronic keyboard atmosphere in China is not very popular yet. Parents all let their children learn piano. Even if they learn electronic keyboard, the purpose is to learn piano.

Modern electronic keyboards and pianos are basically two different concepts. Although the timbre of a synthesizer is not as good as that of traditional musical instruments, the powerful function of an electronic keyboard that can imitate dozens or even hundreds of timbres is indeed a powerful musical tool. It feels very good to be a person and a band.

of.

Cheng Hao didn't expect that the so-called piano genius, the future hope in the composition world, would come to him for advice on electronic organs. He also quickly realized that Yang Jingxing didn't know much about electronic organs, and they were all outdated things from books.

.

Cheng Hao was very free and enthusiastic. He took Yang Jingxing to his classroom, showed him his equipment, gave him a general explanation, and generously let Yang Jingxing try it out.

As soon as Yang Jingxing started playing, he couldn't stop playing. He asked Cheng Hao for advice while playing. Two hours later, Yang Jingxing played "Knowing the End of the World" by himself, using his pedalboard as a drum set and playing the bass in his hands.

It's in harmony with the electric guitar and keyboard. Although the performance is not good, it feels really good!

"Thank you, Teacher Cheng, can I come to you again for advice in the future?" Yang Jingxing was very excited.

Cheng Hao nodded: "No wonder they say you are a genius. Come to me at any time... I'll give you a call."

Then Yang Jingxing asked for advice on equipment, and Cheng Hao suggested a more professional electronic organ to Yang Jingxing, which was an upgraded version of the one he used, and also gave an approximate price.

Yang Jingxing hadn't called Qingnuo yet, so he had to go to the north building to find her. Damn it, the door of 306 really said No Boys! Yang Jingxing was waiting outside, and after the practice inside was over, he shouted loudly: "Okay!"

The door opened, and Liu Siman rushed forward: "You really don't want to give up!"

Qi Qingnuo was behind: "It's just the right time, everyone is here."

So Yang Jingxing met the three talented girls who had not met him yesterday. Nian Qing, the drummer, was only over 1.6 meters tall with shawl hair. She was quite thin, but had a long face, thin eyes and thin lips.

Shao Fangjie, an erhu player, is about 1.65 meters tall and a bit fat. She has a round face, a bit of a mustache and big eyes.

There is also He Peiyuan, a sanxian master from the Conservatory of Music. At least that’s how she introduced herself. Her hair is tied up with a bunch of hairpins. She has a good-looking face and facial features. She is about 1.7 meters tall, with a long neck and narrow shoulders.

There were eleven girls in total. No wonder they were going to perform on Singles' Day. There were so many people that Yang Jingxing didn't even bother to compliment him. He directly talked to Qi Qingnuo and got down to business: "Give me that person's phone number and I'll go find him myself."

." Qi Qingnuo said before that a person who sells musical instruments is a friend of her father. If you buy a piano from that person, you will get a more genuine price.

Qi Qingnuo said: "In such a hurry? If you go by yourself... let me go with you. We are almost finished."

He Peiyuan shouted: "Disband, dissolve!" and ordered Yang Jingxing: "Leave a phone number!"

Yang Jingxing was honored and gave his phone number, and four girls took it down, namely He Peiyuan, Qi Qingnuo, Liu Siman and Cai Feixuan.

He Peiyuan comforted Yang Jingxing: "Don't get me wrong, I just like to collect phone numbers of handsome guys, and it has nothing to do with that."

Yang Jingxing was disappointed: "It's all happiness for nothing."

Chai Litian tapped He Peiyuan's hair with a flute: "She has collected hundreds of numbers. Think about when it will be your turn."

He Peiyuan threatened: "I will also collect your men's."

Chai Litian was not afraid: "Then help me find one first."

Wang Rui said sincerely, "He is a junior after all. Can you be a little more ladylike? Let him be simple for a while."

Qi Qingnuo said to Yang Jingxing: "Who do you think this boy is stopping for? They are all a group of fierce girls."

Yang Jingxing really didn't dare to provoke him, so he said, "I'll wait for you below."

Qi Qingnuo said: "Five minutes."

In less than five minutes, Qi Qingnuo finished cleaning up. The two of them walked towards the school gate. Yang Jingxing asked where their destination was and was considering whether to drive.

Qi Qingnuo said: "Let's drive it, and take me home when you're done. I'm on my way."

Yang Jingxing said: "No matter how far it is, it should be done."

After getting in the car, Qi Qingnuo noticed the erhu in the back seat and became suspicious of Yang Jingxing: "You don't want to break into our interior, do you? Let me tell you first, it's impossible!"

Yang Jingxing also said: "I don't want to be a woman."

Qi Qingnuo threatened: "What's wrong with the woman? Why don't I let Uncle Chen kill you later?"

Yang Jingxing smiled: "I apologize."

Qi Qingnuo said: "I'm definitely trying to make money from you. Let's start with the dirty talk. Don't blame us for cheating on you in the future."

Yang Jingxing said: "You guys, didn't you help me?"

Qi Qingnuo said: "Uncle Chen has been friends with my dad for decades. He used to help import my dad's musical instruments."

Yang Jingxing asked: "Aristocratic family? Who is your father?"

Qi Qingnuo said: "Qidawei."

Yang Jingxing was pleasantly surprised: "Chenghuang Band! Tell your dad that I am his fan!" Chenghuang Band was a thing of the last century. It was a hit in the 1990s and is one of the top extreme rock bands in China. Qidawei's nickname

David is the guitarist and main songwriter of the band, and is also one of the representatives of domestic rock music.

Qi Qingnuo disagreed: "How old were you in their era?"

When Yang Jingxing sang, he sang the masterpiece "Who Understands and Who Doesn't Understand" by the Chenghuang Band. Of course, he didn't roar as loudly as the original version.

Qi Qingnuo laughed: "It's too ugly."

Yang Jingxing didn't mind: "Why didn't you learn guitar?"

Qi Qingnuo said: "Who says I haven't learned anything? I'll give you a chance to see it."

Yang Jingxing made a reservation: "I'll learn from you if I have the chance."

Qi Qingnuo asked: "You want to learn everything? Do you really think of yourself as a genius?"

Yang Jingxing was angry: "Even if I am a fool, I still have rights!"

Qi Qingnuo asked: "Yu Xinting said you refused to go to the United States?"

Yang Jingxing scolded: "She is just a big mouth."

Qi Qingnuo said: "She regards you as an idol."

Yang Jingxing asked again: "How much does a set of drums cost?"

Qi Qingnuo said: "There are several thousand, some hundreds of thousands. Nian Qing's set costs over forty thousand, which is very good."

Yang Jingxing said: "She played very well."

Qi Qingnuo was proud: "Three and six are the best!"

Yang Jingxing asked: "How long does it take to learn drums?"

"You can get started in one or two years, unless you are a genius!" Qi Qingnuo's tone was exaggerated, obviously mocking Yang Jingxing.

Yang Jingxing sighed: "Even a genius can never finish learning in a lifetime."

Qi Qingnuo asked: "When did you start learning composition?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Third year of high school."

"It's progressing pretty fast. What's the plan? What route are you planning to take?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I don't have such a good plan as you."

Qi Qingnuo was modest: "What a plan! It has no goals. Now I can still have a few friends to play with, but I don't know what to do after graduation."

Yang Jingxing asked: "Aren't you prepared to go on for a long time?"

Qi Qingnuo said: "If I keep walking for a long time, I will almost be unable to move."

Yang Jingxing flattered him: "You guys did a great job."

Qi Qingnuo shook his head: "Bottleneck, bottleneck, it's been two years since we formed the group, and we still haven't made a breakthrough... I feel like I can't find a point, and it's always been nondescript."

Yang Jingxing boldly suggested: "I think we should find a breakthrough in the performance method and the harmonious expansion of folk music...it is indeed relatively narrow now."
