609. What a reunion and a melon?
Old bartender: "Let's go have a meal and introduce you to some friends."
Qin Jian: "Man or woman?"
Old bartender: “Of course the lovely girls.”
Qin Jian felt that the old bartender had recovered on his own.
...
During the course of the meal, Qin Jian heard someone mention Hubbard's new work that morning no less than three times.
This made Qin Jian not know whether to cry or laugh. He thought that the works at the music festival did spread faster than the works, or the celebrity effect was different.
In the afternoon, Qin Jian called Vaughn and told him the whole story.
Vaughn only asked Qin Jian one question: "How was the atmosphere at the scene?"
Qin Jian's answer was naturally: "Very fanatical."
Vaughn didn't ask anything else, and his laughter on the phone was particularly pleasant: "Then let's hope that this craze can continue for a while. I guess it won't be long before EMI will release a new record for him.
, we are not in a hurry.”
After hanging up the phone, Qin Jian was completely relieved. He secretly thought that capitalists are capitalists, so he immediately put his thoughts on the problem in the 'right' direction.
Walker did not ask for the video of the scene. Qin Jian thought that the other party could get all the information about today's scene with just a few clicks of his fingers. He also believed that Vaughn had a group of real experts who could dismember the 'Snow Mountain' again until it revealed its original appearance.
.
Feeling comfortable.
Feeling comfortable.
Feeling comfortable in his heart, Qin Jian decided to make his body feel better too.
After leaving the hotel, he took a bus to Bergen's largest commercial street.
He had to follow Duan Ran's suggestion yesterday. Although he could watch this morning's performance wearing a Bergen tropical-style shorts and shorts, he had to be timid for the string quartet in the evening.
What's more, he will have a formal meeting with Duan Hong later.
A slim-fitting black formal suit is just right for both occasions tonight.
When he returned to the music square again, Qin Jian had transformed into a young musician who looked like he had received an invitation from a music festival.
After ordering tonight's bouquet and restaurant, he planned to take a short rest to replenish his energy for tonight.
After returning to the room to catch up on some sleep, he received a call from Liao Linjun at 16:47.
Liao Linjun's arrival was not sudden. The straight-line distance from the piano workshop to the music festival venue was only 80 kilometers.
I think the other party is also here to listen to the string quartet tonight.
Half an hour before the string quartet's performance, the master and apprentice came to the Metz Concert Hall together with Old Porter and another violinist from Hungary who had dined with Qin Jian at noon.
At 18:40, the concert officially begins.
The Metz Concert Hall was full tonight. As a heavyweight concert of this music festival, most of the audience came for the Chamber Music Quartet of the Paris Symphony Orchestra.
Indeed, Qin Jian felt like his ears had been washed after listening to the whole concert. At the same time, he also felt that it was a pity that Duan Ran did not learn cello.
In this two-hour concert, the quartet performed works from different periods.
These include Beethoven's No. 5 work, the mid-term work No. 10, and the later work No. 14.
In addition to Beethoven's string quartet works, there is also the last title work of Dvořák, America.
This masterpiece, which combines bohemian nostalgia with a bit of jazz-style rhythm, seemed to be reborn under the hands of Duan Hong and the others. The beautiful melody and speed-filled ending brought the atmosphere of the scene to a climax.
.
After all the songs were played, the audience continued to applaud enthusiastically, and finally Duan Hong returned to play a cheerful clapping song.
The childlike melody and superb playing techniques brought the concert to a close.
After the concert, Qin Jian went on stage to present flowers in person, which did not take up much of the other party's time. He left the stage after delivering the flowers. Before leaving the stage, Duan Hong told him to wait for him outside the concert hall.
Liao Linjun also sent a bouquet to the first lady. Afterwards, Qin Jian found out that this female violinist was Liao Linjun's senior sister in Vienna. This also solved a doubt in his mind - Liao Linjun should have come to Vienna as a violinist.
Enrolled for majors.
After Duan Hong finished signing autographs and taking photos, he changed his clothes backstage and rushed outside the concert hall.
Seeing Duan Hong coming out, Qin Jian hurriedly greeted him and congratulated him again: "Uncle Duan, your performance tonight was great."
With last night's experience and a wonderful concert, he is no longer nervous now.
Duan Hong said modestly: "Thank you."
Qin Jian: "Uncle Duan, do you have any other plans for the evening?"
Duan Hong smiled and said: "I'll let you decide."
Then, under the leadership of Qin Jian, the two went to the restaurant Qin Jian had reserved in advance.
The restaurant is located in a Western restaurant not far from the event site and was recommended by the old bartender.
Moreover, Qin Jian felt that eating today was secondary to chatting, but the quality of this restaurant was definitely not low in Bergen.
Qin Jian has never done much research on Western food, and the menu is also based on the recommendations of the old bartender.
From the appetizers to the appetizers, he ordered everything in the order of the French dishes without missing a beat. He also ordered the pre-dinner wine and main course wine separately to the waiter.
Duan Hong stopped talking after several attempts to dissuade him, and left everything to Qin Jian. Although eating was just a small matter, the sincerity shown by the other party still made him feel very comfortable.
Who doesn’t like young people who are well-rounded? And they are the favorites of their own daughters.
There will definitely be no shortage of topics to talk about when two musicians sit together. In addition to music, Qin Jian also took the initiative to ask Duan Hong some questions about Western table etiquette.
Duan Hong imparted a lot of knowledge to Qin Jian in detail. In his opinion, this was also a kind of knowledge reserve for Qin Jian. Qin Jian would naturally attend various such occasions in Europe in the future.
As the two chatted, the appetizers were served.
When he saw the real oysters on the seafood plate, Qin Jian was dumbfounded. These were real oysters.
Duan Hong seemed to see Qin Jian's embarrassment and said with a smile: "Try it, the oysters in Bergen are very good. Squeeze the fresh lemon juice on the oysters to cover up the fishy smell of the oysters."
As he said this, he demonstrated it to Qin Jian.
Seeing that the other party was drinking it so easily, Qin Jian followed suit and picked up the lemon slices. However, when he saw the lemon juice dripping on the oysters, the white meat covering them squirmed slightly.
Qin Jian collapsed.
"Haha," Duan Hong was so cute by Qin Jian's expression, "Forget it, you'd better eat some salad. In fact, the French are not that particular about eating. The appetizers are just to fill their stomachs first."
Qin Jian reluctantly put down the oyster cover, shook his head and gave Duan Hong a thumbs up, "You are awesome, I really can't eat raw meat."
Duan Hong smiled and raised his glass, "You're not used to it yet, take your time and don't be in a hurry."
The two had a drink.
Chapter completed!
