Chapter 62 Kawai Piano

The hardware construction of Nanshi is very advanced. On the way to the auditorium, there are more than ten functional buildings in various types. This shows that the country has invested a lot in professional education for normal students. Nanshi's campus environment is also very beautiful. Compared with the environment of Chang's environment with lush flowers and trees and deep heritage everywhere, Nanshi's campus gives people a more modern beauty, spacious, tidy, and refreshing.

The auditorium of the South Normal University is located in the northeast of the campus, covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters. The decoration inside is very simple and has a sense of the times. The students participating in the competition, led by the school leaders and two team teachers, when they walked into the auditorium, they sat in less than one-tenth of the thousands of seats. After all, they were just participating in the ring competition and cheerleading team, and the number was not large.

A huge banner was also hung above the auditorium, saying "I wish this normal student music and art competition a complete success." Flowers and mineral water were already placed on the rostrum, just waiting for the leader to speak.

No matter what event is held, the speech before the meeting is always boring. First, the principal of the Nanshi Normal University came forward to talk about the history and significance of the ring competition. Although there was no applause at all, the principal who was stooled and polite with the "local support for the central government" hairstyle still spoke for half an hour. Of course, the applause at the end of the speech was very warm, but what did this warm applause mean? Haha, there is no need to say more.

Next is the person in charge of this event, then the student representative took the oath, and then the details of the event were discussed. Just as everyone was drowsy, a natural sound came: "I will announce that the ring competition has officially begun!" As soon as the words fell, thunderous applause immediately sounded below.

Next, more than a dozen students in charge of guiding the Southern Division wore uniform costumes and walked towards various teams and cheerleaders participating.

A tall girl with a beautiful face came to Li Deqian and asked with a smile: "Hello, teacher, what kind of competition are you participating in?"

"We are participating in music," said Li Deqian.

"Okay, please come with me to the music building to prepare." The girl said, taking the lead in walking out of the auditorium. Li Deqian and the students participating in the music competition also walked out. After a while, they arrived at the music building of Nanshi.

Although Nan Normal University has a professional music class, it is obvious that Nan Normal University is not as dedicated to music as Chang Normal University. This music building is one level worse than Chang Normal University in terms of scale and hardware facilities. This may be because Nan Normal University only has dozens of music classes, while Chang Normal University’s music education is for thousands of students. Lu Wei heard a student who learned English in Nan Normal University that their music classes are basically not formal, they are very simple, and they play the organ. At that time, Lu Wei was very surprised when he heard this. In a normal school with music classes, students in other majors don’t use pianos to attend music classes. Later, after the student’s explanation, Lu Wei realized that Nan Normal University’s piano was only open to students in music classes, and each person had a small piano room, not to students from other categories.

Walking into the music building of Nanshi, Lu Wei saw that various stages of the arena were arranged very thoughtfully. At the entrance of the building were schematic diagrams of various competitions, and each turn was also indicated with words and arrows, and many propaganda slogans were posted.

Lu Wei was watching, and a loud voice sounded.

"Oh, Lao Li, it's been a long time since we met."

The person who spoke was a thin old man. Although his hair was gray, he was very energetic.

"Old Zhang, haha, how about it? You are well prepared this time." Li Deqian also went up and shook hands with the teacher enthusiastically. Lu Wei guessed in his heart that this person was afraid that he was Zhang Liming mentioned by Teacher Li, and he looked quite artistic.

"Where is where, that's the level, haha." Teacher Zhang was kind-hearted, but the sense of superiority in his eyes could not be concealed.

"Come on, I'll take you to the competition venue. The judges invited this time are of great origin." Zhang Liming and Li Deqian said as they walked.

"Oh, who are there?" Li Deqian asked casually.

"You will know after seeing it later. I'll be sure to surprise you." Zhang Liming said with a smile.

As the two of them spoke, they walked towards the competition venue. At the same time, the number of teams participating in the music competition was getting smaller and smaller. Every time they arrived at a special venue, the students in charge of this group would take the students in the group out of the team and get familiar with the environment.

This music competition includes five major categories: piano, vocal music, electro-vocal music, brass instruments and ethnic musical instruments. Each category of groups has special students in charge.

Li Deqian personally sat in the piano competition venue, which shows how much he expected about this game that had never been victorious.

The piano competition venue was in a small auditorium, and it was said to be small, with about six or seven hundred square meters. There was a shiny black grand piano in the center of the semicircular stage, shining dazzlingly under the fluorescent light. Lu Wei looked at the piano sign, and the golden Kawai words on the side panels of the piano made Lu Wei's eyes hot.

Kawai's origin is Kawai Musical Instrument Production. It was founded in 1927 and is headquartered in Hamamatsu, Shizuka Prefecture, Japan. The piano adopts a long string design, which can harmonize complex double sounds, and is also very beautiful. The bass area has a strong and majestic sound, and the treble area has a thinner sound. Kawai has an excellent touch, is light and easy to play, and has excellent controllability. Therefore, it has been loved by countless piano masters, musicians and enthusiasts.

At this moment, when Lu Wei, who loves piano, thought that he could play this high-quality piano, became a little itchy when he thought about his hands.

The students participating in the piano competition sat down according to the pre-arranged position. Seeing that the judges had not arrived yet, Lu Wei and Kang Xiaoling beside him started talking in a low voice.

"Master, your piano, Kawai!" Lu Wei said to Kang Xiaoling in a low voice.

"What Kawai, is it good?" Kang Xiaoling doesn't understand the piano.

"Although it's not the best, it's also a very good performance-level piano. Do you know how much it costs to just such a piano?" Lu Wei asked.

"I don't know, it probably costs tens of thousands." Kang Xiaoling said guessingly.

"The minimum is no less than 200,000!" Lu Wei said affirmatively.

"So expensive! This is just a piano, it's almost as good as a villa." Kang Xiaoling exclaimed at the number.

"You think this is not the best?" Kang Xiaoling asked Lu Wei with an unbelievable look. She really couldn't believe that just a musical instrument would be so expensive.

"Of course, there are some better than this piano, but unfortunately I can't see it here." Lu Wei said, and a series of top piano brands flashed through his mind: Stanway, Burson Dofu, Fachiori, Steinberg... He doesn't know when he can play the pianos of these world-class brands. Alas! When he has money, he must buy a big villa, build a concert hall of hundreds of square meters, and move these world-famous pianos to his home. At that time, he will definitely feel cool.

Lu Wei, who was there, suddenly realized that someone had pulled his sleeve. When he saw that it was Kang Xiaoling, he asked in confusion: "What's wrong, master?" Kang Xiaoling didn't say anything, and signaled Lu Wei to look at the door of the small auditorium with his eyes. It turned out that the judges were coming.

Lu Wei looked at the judges who walked in and opened his mouth unconsciously into an O-shaped shape.
