My old bacon is back!

Chapter 372 Sky City
"Hurry up, 32 teaches 101 lecture hall!!"

"Hurry up, if you don't go, you won't be able to grab the seat!!"

"Ahhh! Teacher Qi Yuan, I'm here!!"

"Will Qi Yuan really come today?"

"Hurry up, hurry up! If you don't go, there is really no place!"

At Western Film Academy, the students are still having lunch.

Suddenly, everyone became commotion.

Qi Yuan, I'm going to give you a lecture this afternoon in the lecture hall of 32 Teaching 101!
This news immediately detonated all the students!

It has been known for a long time that Qi Yuan has become an honorary professor of Xidu Film Academy.

But in everyone's eyes, this matter is just going through the motions.

It's not that Qi Yuan's strength is not good.

And with how busy Qi Yuan's work is, how could he come to the school to teach everyone.

So although the students are very excited.

But in fact, I didn't hold too much expectation.

But at noon today, there was news that Qi Yuan was going to teach the students of the Conservatory of Music today!
"Is this really true!"

"It's true! The Conservatory has sent notices!"

"Then why didn't you tell us about the Faculty of Arts?"

"It is said that the content of this lecture is related to music, so I only told the Conservatory of Music!"

"This is unfair! This is blatant discrimination! As a member of the director department, I must resolutely resist this school's practice. Students, where is Qi Yuan giving a lecture today? I will go to the scene to criticize the people in the organization." !what happened!?"

The news of Qi Yuan's arrival spread throughout the school in just 10 minutes.

The students flocked here, but found that the classroom was already full!

A lecture theater that can accommodate about 200 people currently accommodates nearly 250 people.

Principal Tan Hua looked at the grand occasion in front of him, and said to the security personnel: "This popularity... I have guessed that the students will be so crazy, and I just waited until today to notify... But this scene is still a bit scary. I will be sure later Pay attention to organize everyone, and don't have any accidents like stampedes!"

Classroom 101 is overcrowded.

In classroom 102 next door, it seemed relatively deserted.

Here, there are dozens of music college students sitting.

The college notified Qi Yuan that he was lecturing next door, and they already knew about it.

At this moment, they all hesitated in their hearts.

Because here, there is also an exchange meeting at the same time.

The exchange team led by the famous professor Jefferson from the Berklee College of Music abroad came to the school.

"It's a bit tangled, why are we all rushing together at this point in time!"

"Professor Jefferson is also a boss I really like!"

"Ah! No way, let's choose Professor Jefferson! This is what our major is related to! Although I really want to see Qi Yuan, but he is in the pop music industry after all!"

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't listen to Qi Yuan's class, but Professor Jefferson's exchange meeting is in this lifetime, maybe this is the only time!"

Students are quite confused.

Associate Professor Liu Jianyi, who was in charge of this exchange meeting, also came to the classroom early. Seeing more than 30 students in front of him, he smiled and said, "Hey! There are more than 30 people? I thought they all went to the next door!"

The students laughed.

"Teacher, it's not that we don't want to go there, but we actually want to go there. There are too many people over there!"

"Teacher, will there be videos of Teacher Qi Yuan's class?"

"I still like to exchange music with Professor Jefferson! Haha!"

Liu Jianyi said: "Don't talk about you, I want to go and listen."

Qi Yuan wrote a lot of popular music, but Liu Jianyi's favorite is the song "Piano of the Night Five" that has been included in the music textbooks for primary and secondary schools.

And because of the number five in the back, Liu Jianyi's heart was itching all the time.

Because this five means that there is still one, two, three, four ahead.

The first four songs are what he really wants to hear.

But because he never had a chance to communicate with Qi Yuan, this matter has always been pressed in his heart.

And today, he had the best opportunity to communicate with Qi Yuan.

So even if he wants to communicate with Berkeley musicians, in fact, Professor Liu's heart has already flown to the next door.

The time came to 01:30.

The commotion from next door was getting louder.

Professor Jefferson and his party of five walked through the aisle and saw the grand occasion outside classroom 101.

"Wow! Professor, your popularity in China is so high! So many students come to see you!"

"This number is too exaggerated!"

"It seems that the students here love music very much!"

A group of five people were surprised by the grand occasion in front of them.

This situation was really beyond their expectations.

Although Professor Jefferson is quite famous internationally.

But only for music.

The number of students in front of me far exceeds the number of students studying music in this school, right?
Professor Jefferson is about 40 meters tall in his 1.8s.

With snow-white hair, he walked in the front of the group of five, and he was quite proud of the scene in front of him.

The music exchange in China this time has not even started, but I have already reaped a lot of physical and mental happiness!
"Professor, let's go this way." The staff led Jefferson and five people around the huge crowd.

This behavior made Jefferson frowned immediately.

Because there are so many people, you have to take a detour to get in?

Several people entered classroom 102 without hindrance, and the group greeted Liu Jianyi a few words.

Then the exchange meeting officially started.

Jefferson stood on the podium.

But at this moment, he was a little confused.

Why don't so many students come in?
Although there are dozens of people present, compared with the outside, is it really too different?

Although he was very confused, Jefferson was still very professional. He clicked on his PPT, played his own music, and then began to talk.

The students below also opened their notebooks one after another, preparing to take notes seriously.

Liu Jianyi sat in the first row. At the beginning, his mind was still on Jefferson's PPT.

But after a few minutes, the other party's content seemed to be a very simple introduction to the other party's music research, nothing particularly in-depth.

Liu Jianyi's thoughts flew away.

Now that the door is closed, the sound from outside the door can no longer be heard.

But look at the time, Qi Yuan is almost here.

This PPT by Professor Jefferson is from a few years ago, right?
too old.

Although this big guy has made quite a lot of achievements in the music industry, his attitude of lecturing is a bit perfunctory!

Jefferson stood on the stage and spoke slowly. He felt that the expressions of everyone in the audience were not very serious.

It made him a little angry.

After more than half an hour, he finished speaking.

Liu Jianyi took the lead and applauded.

But the applause seemed perfunctory.

From time to time, there were cheers outside, probably because of Qi Yuan's class, which aroused the excitement of the students.

"Professor Liu, I think you don't pay much attention to this exchange meeting, and your attitude is very perfunctory!" Jefferson finally couldn't help it, and said.

Liu Jianyi was taken aback by the other party's straightforwardness, and then explained: "Professor, everyone is listening carefully in the audience. It may be because of the need for translation in the middle, so everyone's voice is not so smooth."

Jefferson reluctantly agreed with Liu Jianyi's answer, so he said, "Okay then, let's enter the second part, the part of free communication."

Jefferson looked at the students and said, "Which is your favorite piano piece?"

Jefferson is famous in the world music industry because he has three pieces, which are very famous.

He looked at a short-haired female student and said, "This girl, tell me?"

The girl stood up.

There was another burst of applause like a tsunami from the next door.

Jefferson frowned, and said, "Professor Liu, is there any activity next door? Can we change the classroom? If this continues, we really have no way to communicate!"

Liu Jianyi nodded: "It's indeed a bit noisy, okay, let's go to the second floor, there are still a few classrooms."

Everyone went out together.

Then, Jefferson's footsteps stopped moving.

Because he heard the sound of a piano coming from classroom 101.

Very beautiful piano sound.

And this is a very strange, but very pleasant piano piece that he has never heard before!
Jefferson's cloudy old eyes suddenly lit up.

Looking at the crowded crowd, Jefferson asked anxiously: "Professor, who is playing the piano inside? Is it your teacher or a student? This piece is really nice!"

In fact, Liu Jianyi is not calm now, it must be Qi Yuan playing the piano, right?

And he has never heard of this song!
Is this one of the "Piano Music of the Night One Two Three Four"? !

Liu Jianyi's heart was beating a little faster, and he said, "Didn't you just ask me about my favorite piano piece?"

Jefferson looked at Liu Jianyi.

""Piano of the Night 5", one of my favorite piano pieces."

"What tune is this?"

"I guess you haven't heard it. This piece of music was written by the person who is playing the piano!"

"Really?!" Jefferson's interest has been completely lifted.

Liu Jianyi was also very excited.

The students behind him had already seen the needle and got into the crowd.

Therefore, Liu Jianyi and Jefferson also stood behind the students: "Student, please step aside, we are here to communicate with Teacher Qi Yuan, let us go in and thank you."

When the students saw that it was the teacher who was leading some crooked nuts, it was still difficult to turn around, and a small aisle was vacated for a few people.

Jefferson finally saw who was playing the piano.

But at this moment, the man has finished playing.

It's over? !

I managed to squeeze in, but he finished playing! ?
Jefferson and Liu Jianyi felt that their mentality had collapsed!

……

Qi Yuan stood on the stage, looked at the students in the room and said: "The piece I just played is a piano piece that I usually like to play. Let me share with you my own music creation. , You can ask any questions now.”

Nearly 90% of the students in the audience raised their hands.

A piece of black.

Qi Yuan looked at a boy in the front row with his hair combed back and asked, "Student, do you have any questions?"

The boy stood up and said, "Teacher Qi Yuan, I want to say something first."

Qi Yuan: "Tell me."

"I really like your music."

"Okay, thank you very much for your like."

"My question is, how does Mr. Qi Yuan balance his works in terms of applause and popularity?"

Qi Yuan looked at this classmate and said with a smile: "You ask this question, are you planning to engage in music-related work in the future?"

The boy nodded and said, "I really like music, but you can't make much money just by making music. But I know Teacher Qi Yuan is different."

Qi Yuandao: "To be honest, I have never experienced your problem, because my works are both well-received and well-received!"

"Wow!!" Hearing Qi Yuan's extraordinary answer, the students immediately screamed.

Qi Yuan continued: "But I think, we actually have no way to predict whether your song will be popular, and whether someone will pay for your music. So just make the music you like the most. Alright. Alright, next classmate!"

This time, a female student wearing glasses was drawn: "Mr. Qi Yuan, I would like to ask, in fact, you have also created a lot of music in many of your film and television works, so you have it first. The music then created the script based on the music. Or do you have the script first and then write the music? For example, the theme song "lemon" of your "Unnatural Death" fits so well with the TV series. It sounds super visual."

Qi Yuan replied: "This question... Actually, many times, the two come out together."

Qi Yuan quickly noticed Jefferson and his group standing at the door.

This middle-aged foreigner also raised his hand, wanting to ask questions?

Qi Yuan looked at Jefferson and said, "This foreign friend also has problems?"

Seeing that Qi Yuan finally noticed Jefferson, he seemed more excited: "Hi, I'm Jefferson Johnson, a professor at the Berklee Conservatory of Music."

Qi Yuan didn't respond to the foreign old man's introduction.

The students sitting below were more excited.

"This is the big brother Jefferson? The master who has three songs all over the world!"

"Yes! Today he also held an exchange meeting with us. I struggled for a long time, and finally chose to come to Qi Yuan's side!"

"Isn't this big guy supposed to hold an exchange meeting? How did you come here?"

"I'm afraid it wasn't attracted by Teacher Qi Yuan's piano sound just now."

Qi Yuan didn't know the old man in front of him, but judging from the reaction of the students, this old man should be famous in the music industry?

So Qi Yuan hurriedly said: "Hello."

Jefferson was a little surprised by Qi Yuan's calmness, judging from the other party's proficiency in the piano just now.

The other party should have studied deeply in the field of music.

Then there is no reason not to know yourself!
But the other party looks like he doesn't know who he is at all.

Jefferson asked: "Hello, I just want to ask, what is the name of the piece you played just now, did you write it yourself?"

Qi Yuan nodded and said, "This song is called "Castle in the Sky"."

"Laputa?" Jefferson asked, "You wrote it yourself?"

Qi Yuan nodded: "Yes."

"This piece of yours is not difficult to play, but the whole piece is very nice."

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Jefferson still had a lot to say, and wanted to ask something more.

But Qi Yuan's gaze has turned to the next student.

Some students asked Qi Yuan about his music creation.

Qi Yuan's answer was very simple, yet thought-provoking.

Some students are asking how to create lyrics.

Qi Yuan replied, read more books, read more newspapers, walk more, and see the world more.

……

From Jefferson's point of view, each student's question is relatively simple.

But it's not that easy to answer.

But for Qi Yuan, his answer sounds very simple, but when he thinks about it carefully, it really makes sense.

This highlights Qi Yuan's level.

This young man in his 20s seems to be so deeply immersed in music?

The curiosity in Jefferson's heart became stronger and stronger, and he said, "Professor Liu, is this a teacher from our college?"

Liu Jianyi proudly introduced: "Yes. This is Professor Qi Yuan from our college."

"Professor? Such a young professor?" Jefferson was shocked, and several people around him were also shocked.

Liu Jianyi smiled and said, "According to his level, he is more than enough to be a professor. Didn't I tell you just now that my favorite piano piece is written by him."

As he spoke, Liu Jianyi took out his mobile phone and earphones, and played "Piano of the Night 5" to Jefferson.

Jefferson's eyes widened when he heard this short piece of music.

After listening to the song, he directly gave Liu Jianyi a thumbs up: "This teacher Qi Yuan, I must get to know him later!"

Someone behind reminded Liu Jianyi and Jefferson: "Professors, should we continue our music exchange meeting?"

The minds of the two old men have long since ceased to be at the exchange meeting.

"You were distracted next door just now, couldn't you just be thinking about Teacher Qi Yuan over here?" Jefferson asked.

Liu Jianyi blushed, and said: "Actually, in many of our exchange meetings, the form is greater than the content. And aren't you curious? Judging from the name, Ye's piano piece is a suite. Don't you want to listen to it? Anything else?"

Jefferson patted Liu Jianyi's shoulder excitedly and said, "Of course!"
