I heard that Kong Xiangdong was going to hold a steel meeting in the Second Palace (Workers' Cultural Palace) this Saturday, but he didn't expect that he would come today!" A parent of a piano boy asked excitedly.

"Yes, I started booking tickets a month before I started, but I almost couldn't book. Mr. Kong Xiangdong is a real piano master. You will have to have a good look in a while!" Another person said in agreement.

"Auntie, will Uncle Kong Xiangdong really come later?" The little girl named Yangyang just now had a tender childish voice.

"Of course, kid, Teacher Kong is here later. You must be obedient and not run around, do you know?" The cashier mm squatted down and said to Yangyang with a smile.

"Well, Yangyang knows, Yangyang will be very obedient." The girl named Yangyang nodded vigorously.

The breath that Kong Xiangdong was about to come soon spread throughout the piano store. The piano children and parents who were still teaching in the small classroom also walked out of the classroom. In a while, the spacious exhibition hall was filled with more than 30 piano children and parents. It seems that there are really many students in this piano store.

Seeing this situation, Xiaoling was also anxious to choose the music score and waited with the people.

"Here, here!" Who said, "Who called out first, and people looked out of the piano store, and many parents were pulling or holding their children to squeeze towards the door.

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze!" The mm at the cashier shouted, but obviously it did not play much role in people.

Several black Audis were parked in the parking lot. Under the escort of a group of security personnel, Kong Xiangdong walked out of a car. The iconic bald head immediately attracted everyone in the piano store to the ground.

Kong Xiangdong, the best and most active Chinese pianist in the international music scene today, is praised by Western music media as "only one or two in a century. It can truly excite and genius pianist" and "a generation of genius". Although in the international music scene, he seems to be less powerful than Lang Lang. But any music critic is willing to praise this excellent pianist without hesitation for their praise. With his unremitting efforts and persistent pursuit of piano art, Kong Xiangdong has won countless flowers and honors. He is a true international pianist!

As a famous pianist, Kong Xiangdong never forgot to shoulder the important task of promoting the popularization of Chinese piano art. In 1997, he founded the "Kong Xiangdong Music and Art Center" in Pudong New Area in Shanghai. He is committed to popularizing piano education and promoting cultural exchanges between China and the West. Today, the "Kong Xiangdong Music and Art Center" has established more than 20 branches in Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, Xi'an, Hefei, Macau, Nanchang and other cities. Although the Qinhuangdao branch was opened relatively late, thanks to Kong Xiangdong's strong influence in the piano world and the excellent teaching staff of the Piano Art Center, it has quickly become a holy place for Qinhuangdao piano children and parents to learn piano in the hearts of Qinhuangdao piano children and parents. Even with his much higher tuition fees than elsewhere, it still cannot stop people from coming here to study. It is said that the courses of the steelmakers here are all full. Some students coming to register even face the embarrassing situation of no teachers.

Similarly, the teaching level here is obvious to all. There are three local piano grading institutions in Qinhuangdao City. They are the Chinese Musicians Association, the China Conservatory of Music and the Central Conservatory of Music. Among them, the Chinese Musicians Association and the China Conservatory of Music offer an amateur grade level, which is divided into nine levels. The Central Conservatory of Music offers a professional grade level, which is divided into ten levels. Most piano shops in Qinhuangdao City choose local grade level for piano children. They are all two amateur grade levels in the front. Only Kong Xiangdong Piano Art Center. Starting from the recruitment of the first student

. I insisted on taking only one grading exam. That is, the piano grading exam in the area of ​​the Central Conservatory of Music. Compared with the other two grading exams, the piano grading exam in the area of ​​the Central Conservatory of Music is much stricter. Compared with the first two 100% or 97% and 8 pass rates, the passing rate of the piano grading at the Central Conservatory of Music is less than 50%. It can be seen that the standards are high. But under such high standards, students in the Kongxiangdong Piano Art Center have always been able to maintain a pass rate of more than 95%. The teaching level is high. This shows that.

Although the piano teachers here are not entirely students of Kong Xiangdong, without exception, they have been awarded the job certificate by the Kong Xiangdong Piano Art Center. It is not easy to obtain this job certificate. Not only must they have to win at least one top three awards in international competitions, but they also have to pass the qualification examination for Kong Xiangdong personally presided over. It can be said that they can serve as a piano teacher here. None of them are ordinary people.

Kong Xiangdong himself became a legendary figure in the hearts of the local piano boys and parents. In their hearts, Kong Xiangdong is a world-class local master and represents the highest level of piano in the world. No wonder they were all so excited when they heard the news that Kong Xiangdong was coming.

More than a dozen security guards struggled to separate the people blocked at the door, leaving a passage. Kong Xiangdong, a black stand-up suit, and the manager's place.

, walked in quickly.

"Hello, Teacher Kong, please sign me with an autograph." A girl from Yan who had just finished class said loudly.

"Teacher Kong, let's play us a piece." A bold student said.

"Teacher Kong..."

...

Although the security guards held hands to separate people from Kong Xiangdong, people's emotions became even more excited.

"Hello everyone!" Kong Xiangdong was also very happy to see so many people in the Piano Art Center.

"Mr. Kong, let's arrive soon. There are too many people here. I'm afraid of danger!" The manager of the piano store looked at Kong Xiangdong and was not in a hurry to move forward. Instead, he greeted these people one by one, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"It's okay." Kong Dong said with a smile. He was originally a very easy-going person. Although he is now a world-class pianist, his attitude towards these people who love piano art is still so approachable.

"Teacher Kong!" A sweet female voice sounded. It was so familiar that Kong Xiangdong immediately distinguished it in such a noisy environment.

Turning his head in the direction of the sound, Xiangdong immediately noticed Xiaoling waving at him.

"Xiaoling?! Why are you here?" Kong Xiangdong shouted unexpectedly, with a happy expression on his face.

The piano manager didn't understand how Kong Xiangdong knew such an ordinary girl, "Is it a secret lover?" Looking at Xiaoling's pure and lively appearance, Manager Wang guessed.

"I have something to do..." Xiaoling was about to say something, but was squeezed behind by the crowded crowd.

Kong Xiangdong quickly signaled the security guard to put Xiaoling in, and the two of them came to the room specially prepared for Kong Xiangdong on the second floor of the piano store.

"Teacher Kong, I heard you are coming here to hold a solo concert." The two of them entered the room and sat down, and Xiaoling asked first.

"Yes, the Qinhuangdao Piano Association sent me an invitation half a year ago, hoping that I would come here to hold a concert. I didn't have many performance tasks during this period, so I came here." Kong Xiangdong said with a smile.

Manager Wang came in, poured a glass of water for each of them, saw that Kong Xiangdong and Xiaoling were acquaintances, and called him and went out.

"Manager, who is that woman? She looks quite familiar with Teacher Kong." Xiao Liu, who had just played the piano in the middle of the piano store, asked.

"I don't know, Xiao Liu, go to Ergong immediately to see how you are preparing there? Also, ask the Philharmonic Piano Store in Shanghai where the Kawayi piano you rented is now." Manager Wang ordered.

"Oh, OK, I'll ask right away." Xiao Liu agreed and walked downstairs.

After looking at the closed door, Manager Wang finally resisted the ** who wanted to inquire, turned around and left.

"Xiaoling, how is Lu Wei doing during this period?" Kong Xiangdong took a sip of water and asked with concern.

"He is pretty good." Xiaoling said with a smile.

"Oh, that's good." Kong Xiangdong said, but sighed in his heart. Since Lu Wei's piano level declined more than a year ago for some reason, he and Wei Xiaofan had tried to ask him several times to understand, but Lu Wei always looked like a deep look and avoided talking, and never touched the piano again, which made the two people who had great hope for him sigh. Over the past year, Kong Xiangdong has performed a lot of his own performances and has not paid much time to pay attention to Lu Wei's situation, but in his heart, he never forgot Lu Wei for a moment.

"By the way, Xiaoling, why did you think of my piano store coming? Is there anything wrong?" Kong Xiangdong asked casually. In his heart, he faintly hoped that Xiaoling was coming because of Lu Wei. Although he knew that this possibility was really slim. He still remembered that he saw Lu Wei more than a year ago. The decadence that emanated from his bones made Kong Xiangdong unable to see any hope.

"Oh, I just went to the bookstore to help Lu Wei buy two copies of the scores. Who knows there isn't there, so I'll come here to read it," Xiaoling said.

"What? Buy the music score?! Lu Wei is now practicing the piano?!", listening to Xiaoling's words, Kong Xiangdong asked loudly in disbelief.

"Yes, he started practicing a year ago." Xiaoling said with a smile.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?!" Kong Xiangdong said excitedly, then stood up and said anxiously to Xiaoling: "Let's go, take me to see that boy!"

"Master Kong, music score..."

"What music score do you want?" Kong Xiangdong asked quickly, then got up and walked towards the bookcase.

"The "Beethoven Piano Sonata Collection" and "Liszt Super Skills Etudes" are the musical versions," Xiaoling said quickly.

Almost as soon as Xiaoling finished speaking, Kong Xiangdong pulled out two music scores from the cabinet.

"Let's go, let's go here." Kong Xiangdong took the music score, opened the door and walked out.
Chapter completed!
