The world's number one pianist

He Shen really didn't expect that Zhao Shenggang would just pass by his door when he just opened the door.

And he called him to go to the meeting together?

He Shen looked at Zhao Shenggang in front of him, and after a moment of silence, he gave up the desire to go home and rest for a while, and nodded slightly to him.

"Okay, let's go."

After that, He Shen walked towards the office first.

Zhao Shenggang also started, followed He Shen's steps closely, and stood less than half a step behind He Shen.

To be honest, He Shen hated meetings.

There was still a long way from He Shen's piano room to the office, which was the main reason why He Shen didn't want to have a meeting.

After all, during the meeting, why don't you do something yourself?

Why do you have to go to that group of people who are almost as old as his father and have a meeting with them?

And...

He Shen really wanted to complain.

Although the meeting said that he was taking himself with him and cultivating himself, most of the time he just acted as a mascot.

He Shen had never thought about many of the things they said and considered.

When He Shen thought about it, the group had already started discussing the next topic.

He Shen had asked Zhou San about this kind of thing before. He was not particularly good at meetings. He was better at playing the piano and teaching. Why did he continue to follow them to attend meetings?

Zhou San just smiled and did not explain. He just asked him to watch, listen and learn more, saying that he would use it in the future.

Therefore, He Shen has never been able to feel like attending meetings.

However, no matter how much he dislikes it, he is now a member of this school and always needs to be responsible.

Therefore, He Shen could only walk towards the meeting room with a blank expression.

When He Shen was walking on the way to the meeting room, many students around him who had not yet returned home or had returned to school early saw He Shen for the first time, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they immediately bowed and greeted He Shen.

"Hello, Mr. He!"

"Hello, Professor He!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Professor He!"

"Director He!"

"..."

No matter who it is, when they see He Shen for the first time, they will basically say hello to He Shen.

After all, since He Shen returned to Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music, the publicity focus of Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music has been placed on He Shen.

This also makes many students join Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music for He Shen.

It is easy to understand that the school's publicity focus is on He Shen. After all, the strength of a school depends on three aspects.

Is the top power strong enough?

Is the mid-level teaching quality guaranteed?

Is the student's talent worth cultivating?

And the easiest way to publicize it is the mid-level teaching quality and the top-level teachers and professors!

These people can make everyone know the existence of this school more clearly.

For example, Chuanzhou Conservatory of Music may not be able to say anything else, but if you talk about the top teachers in Chuanzhou Conservatory of Music.

Basically, most people can think of Professor Dan Yi and Li Diyun...

Oh, no, Li Diyun's sign in the personal piano studio in Chuanzhou has been taken down, and the reputation of honorary professor has also been taken down, so he can no longer be considered a member of Chuanzhou Conservatory of Music.

Let's not talk about Chuanzhou Conservatory of Music, let's talk about Huaguo Conservatory of Music, the top Zhou Renguang, Wei Wendan and others, each of them has an extremely loud reputation.

Huaguo Conservatory of Music is also almost firmly in the top position in China because of the reputation of Zhou Renguang and others.

The main reason why Haicheng Conservatory of Music can confront Huaguo Conservatory of Music head-on is that they have very famous top professors.

For example, Principal Liao Yong, who previously cooperated with He Shen on the show.

Those students who have a lot of choices, they choose schools not based on the reputation of the school, but on the teachers.

They will follow their teachers to the school they want to go to.

This also leads to the fact that those schools with top teachers can have more top students.

The more top students they have, the more they can improve their school's international ranking.

Then attract more top teachers to teach in this school.

All of this is mutually reinforcing.

Although Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music had sufficient mid-level strength before, it can be regarded as a strong conservatory of music.

But they don’t have a top teacher who can really stand up, so even if they want to promote, they can only promote their strong foundation and their school teachers, who are either elite returnees or teachers from the Conservatory of Music of Jiangzhou Normal University and the Conservatory of Music of Jiangzhou University of Arts.

Because of this, their promotion direction is limited to Jiangzhou. Even if they want to promote nationwide, the effect of the promotion is not particularly satisfactory.

But now it’s different!

He Shen is here!

As the champion of the Chopin International Piano Competition, He Shen personally participates in teaching and sits in the piano department of Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music.

Unlike other pianists, most of them will hold concerts first after winning the championship, and then look for money-making opportunities from various places.

He Shen settled down, practiced the piano honestly, and then taught students.

Completely different from those pianists!

This is why the people in the school, when they first saw He Shen, had an expression of immense respect rather than admiration.

Because all of them saw something that He Shen did in music teaching at Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music.

For example, taking students, giving some open classes, etc.

There is absolutely no aura that says he is a world champion or a big star.

It's no different from an ordinary piano teacher.

It is precisely because of this that these students became more respectful when they looked at He Shen.

He Shen looked at the group of students and didn't say much. He just nodded slightly to them when they greeted them.

Although he didn't say anything, the aura of the piano master was already very clear.

Or... the momentum of the department chair?

Zhao Shenggang stood aside and looked at He Shen, his eyes narrowed slightly and he nodded slightly.

After Zhao Shenggang thought for a moment, he took two steps forward, walked to He Shen's level, spoke to He Shen, and asked casually.

"He Shen, I never had a chance to ask you, how are you feeling recently? You have just come into contact with school affairs, are you still able to accept it?"

"good……"

He Shen nodded, not caring that Zhao Shenggang was standing half a step in front of him, and just said casually.

"Relatively speaking, students in the school have a strong willingness to learn, and teaching is not particularly difficult."

Zhao Shenggang turned to look at He Shen and asked with a smile: "Is it just teaching? What about other aspects? For example... the future development direction of Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music? There are also exchanges with other local conservatories, or other Some things, have you considered these things?”

He Shen did not answer, but looked at Zhao Shenggang and asked the same casually. "Director Zhao, I want to ask, what is the best piece of music you can play right now?"

"The best piece?" Zhao Shenggang was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect He Shen to suddenly turn the topic to this place. He couldn't help but touched his chin and said hesitantly: "If I remember correctly, I am practicing the best now. ", and one of my personal repertoires, is Chopin's Piano Ballade No. 1."

After saying that, he tilted his head slightly to He Shen, looked at He Shen and said with confusion: "What's wrong? Why do you suddenly ask me this question?"

"Nothing..." He Shen shook his head and said intentionally or unintentionally: "I just want to ask, how long have you been stuck in that place?"

"How long have you been stuck there?"

Zhao Shenggang was completely stunned, and his pace couldn't help but stop. After He Shen walked several steps in front of him, he suddenly remembered and immediately caught up, hesitatingly said.

"Chopin's Piano Ballade No. 1, stuck? Are you referring to that feeling where you feel like you can still move forward a little bit, but no matter what, you don't know how to move on?"

"right."

He Shen nodded: "How long have you had that feeling? In other words, how long have you been stuck in that place?"

Zhao Shenggang didn't speak. He originally wanted to take He Shen to learn more about the internal affairs of the Conservatory of Music, but now he had no thoughts at all.

He really didn't know. He Shen knew from that place that he had been stuck in that realm for a long time.

Although Zhao Shenggang, as a piano professor, spends most of his time at work, he never cares much about his family.

But he didn't mean that he stopped practicing piano.

If we talk about the top piano teachers and piano department chairs who are the most diligent in practicing piano in China, then Zhao Shenggang is definitely one of them.

No matter how busy Zhao Shenggang is, he will spare at least two hours every day to practice piano.

Although you can't practice a lot in such a short period of time, it's not a problem to keep making slight progress.

And what He Shen told him before, asking him when he felt that he was stuck in a certain realm...

Zhao Shenggang thought back and felt that it had been at least half a year!

He practices the piano every day, and he practices especially Chopin's Piano Ballade No. 1.

But to be honest, the feeling of being stuck is getting stronger and stronger, and I have never found a very clear way to solve this feeling of being stuck.

Zhao Shenggang didn't think much, and immediately took two or three steps forward and said to He Shen.

"It's been about half a year, why do you suddenly ask about this? I probably haven't told anyone else about this..."

"I heard it."

He Shen couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

Although the system distributes rewards and so on, they are often delayed.

For example, when I won the Chopin International Piano Competition, I had to wait for the staff and big bosses to announce the results thoroughly before telling myself that this was done and I could get the reward.

However, there is actually no delay in checking personal information and status.

He Shen continued to walk forward, speaking to Zhao Shenggang as he walked.

"Although you want me to take over the position of Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music, I have to say that I am not particularly interested in the administrative aspect."

"If you are free, come and learn Chopin's Piano Ballade No. 1 from me. Although the Chopin Piano Ballade No. 1 I play is probably among the top in the world, I can help you break through that level. The barrier should be fine."

"Not interested in administration, top few in the world, help me break through..."

Zhao Shenggang had a lot of complaints but couldn't say them. He looked at He Shen's face, which looked very young compared to him, and touched his rough hands. No matter how he thought about it, he felt something was wrong.

Not interested in administration, this is actually okay. Zhou San and he just had an idea, wanting to try to put Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music in He Shen's hands and train a successor in advance.

Since He Shen is not very interested, then just look back.

And the top few in the world behind...

Although He Shen is now the champion of the Chopin International Piano Competition, this Chopin International Piano Competition champion should not be the top few in the world, right?

And He Shen should only have the ability to play, right? Can he break through that layer of membrane?

Teaching, this thing, depends largely on experience.

The more you teach, the more thorough your understanding of each type of student.

You can better understand how to teach that type of student.

Originally, Zhao Shenggang was particularly anxious about how He Shen could help him break through the barrier of the screen, and his heart instantly faded a lot.

He even couldn't help but laugh at himself.

He really thought too much. The feeling of not having a breakthrough before made him too anxious, so he forgot a lot of key information.

Therefore, Zhao Shenggang's face returned to calm, and he just nodded to He Shen and smiled gently.

"Okay, then I look forward to your teaching, Teacher He, and hope you can help me break through."

"Yes, you will."

After the two finished talking, the surrounding environment immediately fell into a strange silence.

Everyone was thinking about their own things, and no one spoke first.

This silent momentum made many students around who originally wanted to say hello to He Shen shut up and just bend down slightly.

The two quickly walked to the elevator and waited for the elevator.

Just as the two were waiting for the elevator, a chirping sound suddenly came from He Shen's side.

"I told you that Teacher He knows everything about piano! If he can show me a skill in music therapy one day, I won't be surprised at all!"

"Did you see it? That night, Teacher He played accompaniment for other students in "Super Vocal". Wow, it was really so cool!"

"Especially that, you can sing whatever you want, I can keep up! My God, it's really so strong!"

"Alas, why doesn't Teacher He look at us seriously? I always feel that he cares more about those people who sing vocals in variety shows than us."

As they were talking, Zhao Zitong and Ji Mengting suddenly appeared at the corner. They walked towards the elevator, talking and laughing.

Of course, Zhao Zitong was the main speaker throughout the whole process, while Ji Mengting stood aside very gently, echoing Zhao Zitong in a low voice.

When the two of them turned the corner and looked at the elevator, Zhao Zitong's face, which was originally talking and laughing, froze instantly.

She looked at He Shen who was standing at the elevator door, and his father who was standing next to him, and couldn't help swallowing.

Ji Mengting didn't think much about it. She didn't know that Zhao Shenggang was Zhao Zitong's father, so she just walked quickly to He Shen and nodded to him.

"Hello, Teacher He!"

After that, she looked at Zhao Shenggang, hesitated for a moment, nodded, and whispered: "Hello, Director Zhao."

Zhao Shenggang didn't say anything, he just looked at Zhao Zitong who was standing aside without moving, without saying a word.

Zhao Zitong lowered her head, not knowing what she should do now.

Should she say hello to her former father first, or should she say hello to her former teacher?

For a moment, she felt that her brain speed was close to overload, and she couldn't think seriously at all.

If she said hello to her teacher He first, what would her father think?

If she said hello to her father first, what would Teacher He think?

Just when she was completely confused, He Shen looked at her and said lightly.

"Come here, don't stand there stupidly. The piano department is going to have a meeting later, which will be hosted by President Zhou San. As graduate students of the school, you also need to attend the meeting."

"Huh? Oh, okay, He... Senior Brother."

Zhao Zitong raised her head carefully and glanced at her father. After finding that he had no special expression, she immediately walked quickly behind He Shen and lowered her head and dared not speak.

Although Ji Mengting felt a little strange, she felt that it was not appropriate to ask Zhao Zitong about the specific situation.

Zhao Shenggang looked at his daughter, with no expression on his face, but just sighed slowly in his heart.

He didn't know what kind of expression he should have to face his daughter.

And his daughter always felt very distant from him, but very close to He Shen.

Could it be...

Zhao Shenggang glanced at He Shen again and restrained his urge to touch his chin.

If that's the case, it seems... It's not impossible? His daughter will definitely not lose out!

Although his mind was full of thoughts, Zhao Shenggang didn't say much. He just straightened his face, showed an extremely calm expression, and said nothing.

Soon, the elevator arrived, and everyone got on the elevator one by one and walked towards the meeting room.

He Shen stood in front, Zhao Shenggang stood slightly behind He Shen's right, and Zhao Zitong and Ji Mengting followed behind He Shen.

The four of them walked into the conference room.

The conference room was almost full, with only two seats left.

Zhou San was sitting in the middle of the chief seat sorting out the documents, and suddenly heard someone open the door, and immediately looked up.

After seeing He Shen and the other three, he couldn't help but smile, stood up and pulled open the seat, and said to He Shen.

"He Shen, are you here? I just asked Zhao Shenggang to look for you. Now you two are here together. It seems that he found you."

"In that case, let's not waste time talking and start the meeting!"

"What we are going to discuss now is the planning of the competition schedule for next year. It is very important for us if students win awards in the competition!"

"School will start in September this year, and the follow-up publicity and student management have been decided."

"If we can successfully lead the team and gain some fame in the competition after school starts, our national enrollment in the second year will be easier!"

"After all, what we have to do next is to The Chinese classical music community will make Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music famous. "

"So, in January, the Chinese Music Higher Education Competition will select a team leader and let him lead the team to win two places! The places for next year's Chopin Competition!"

"After winning the places, in addition to the Chopin International Piano Competition, we also need to analyze the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition and the Liszt International Piano Competition and strive to enter the finals."

"After all, there are some good seedlings among our students this year!"

"So..."

"Can you two lead the team?"

Zhou San looked at Zhao Shenggang and He Shen, who was sitting next to Zhao Shenggang, waiting for their answers.
