1990: Starting from Baojia Street

Zhou Yan also walked down. He couldn't help but feel funny when he looked at the chocolate in Lao Jiu's hand. The chocolate spun around twice and finally passed into the girl's hand.

After Zhang Xinning trapped Zhou Qing with chocolate, he played with her for a while, then raised his head and asked Zhou Yan, Jia Guoping said, you said you are looking for a piano prodigy?

Zhou Yan smiled and said, My statement is a bit exaggerated. As long as you are a primary school student who can play the piano well.

What grade are primary school students in? Zhang Xinning asked.

About ten years old.

Boy or girl?

boy.

Hearing that Zhou Yan wanted a boy around ten years old, Zhang Xinning laughed, There really is one, and he can definitely be regarded as a child prodigy.

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows, Really?

Well, we were just recruited into the affiliated primary school in April this year. More than 3,000 people applied for it, and he was the first. And he should be in the school during this time.

Zhou Yan nodded. He didn't need Zhang Xinning to explain, he knew why the child was in Yangyin now.

There are many big guys in the piano department of Yangyin School. These big guys not only teach the students of the school, but also teach talented children after school.

But these big guys in the Central Music Piano Department basically only accept children who are on a professional path, so if there are piano children who are in elementary school in ordinary schools and want to learn from these big guys, they have to drop out of their own schools. Then go to the Yangyin Affiliated Primary School.

These children have unusual talents, and with the guidance of the school's bosses, they basically rank very high in the entrance exams. This was the case for Zhang Xinning herself. Back then, she first studied with Teacher Zheng from the piano department, and then when she was ten years old, she was admitted to the Central Academy of Music Affiliated Elementary School.

The first place that Zhang Xinning mentioned is probably the case, so that child should now be learning piano at the home of a certain piano master.

Which teacher is that child's student? Zhou Yan asked.

He is a student of Teacher Zhao Pingguo.

Zhou Yan didn't know much about the teachers in the piano department, but Jia Guoping knew, It turns out that he is a student of Teacher Zhao. Zhou Yan, don't you know Du Taihang? He is a student of Teacher Zhao.

Zhou Yan knew about Du Taihang. He was a senior in the piano department. When Zhou Yan and the others entered the school, Du Taihang was already in his junior year. They had had several contacts before, but it seems that Du Taihang went to Switzerland to study abroad this year.

And Teacher Zhao's daughter Zhao Ling, don't you know her? Zhang Xinning asked.

Zhou Yan shook his head, I don't know him.

Zhang Xinning pouted, She even went to see the new works concert last semester.

Zhou Yan still shook his head. He knew few girls in school. At that time, there were many people from other departments attending the concert of new works during the semester, and he didn't know many of them.

But after listening to what the two of them said, Zhou Yan was very interested in the little prodigy. He smiled and asked, I'm going to visit Teacher Zhao's house now. I don't know if it's convenient or not.

Zhang Xinning smiled and said, It doesn't matter, I'll take you there. Teacher Zhao should be at home at this time.

Zhou Yan nodded, Then it's Senior Sister Lao.

After that, Zhang Xinning took Zhou Yan to find Zhao Pingguo, and Jia Guoping also followed.

Teacher Zhao lives in the family building of the school.

The family building in their school was just built last year, and most of the teachers have moved in. Zhou Yan often went there when he was looking for Shi Wanchun.

Jia Guoping just stayed in school and is still living with Zhou Yan and the others, but the school will probably give him a house to live in later.

As soon as they entered Building 4, Zhou Yan and the others heard the sound of a piano.

This is very normal in family buildings. It is estimated that eight out of ten families living in this building have pianos.

Teachers in the piano department and composition department basically have pianos at home, and teachers in other majors are also willing to have a piano at home.

Some people who have the conditions may even put a grand piano in their home.

Teacher Zhao lived on the first floor. When he arrived at the door, Zhang Xinning knocked on the door.

After a while, a fat girl with short hair came over and opened the door.

Seeing the three people at the door, the girl was a little surprised, Sister Xinning, Zhou Yan, Brother Jia, why are you here?

The person who opened the door was Zhao Pingguo's daughter Zhao Ling. She was also a piano student in the same class as Zhou Yan and the others. However, the piano major was a four-year program and she had graduated this year.

Although Zhou Yan didn't know Zhao Ling, he felt familiar when he saw her in person.

There are so many people in the same class at the same school, so even if they don't know each other, they will definitely run into each other often.

Zhang Xinning smiled and said, Let's come find Teacher Zhao. Is he there?

I'm teaching students inside. You guys should come in and sit for a while.

The three of them nodded and walked in.

In the living room, a middle-aged woman in her fifties and wearing glasses was reading a book.

As soon as she entered, Zhang Xinning greeted her, Director Ling.

The woman is Zhao Pingguo's wife, Ling Yuan, a famous pianist. She currently serves as the director of the piano department at the High School Affiliated to Yangyin School and is also Zhang Xinning's leader.

Zhao Pingguo and Ling Yuan also have a son, Zhao Wei, who is also very talented at the piano. Now he is studying abroad. It can be said that they are a standard piano family, and none of their family members has a crotch.

Ling Yuan put down the book with a smile, Xinning, are you looking for me?

Zhao Ling smiled and said, Mom, you are reading too seriously. Senior sister Xinning just said that they are looking for dad.

Oh, let's find Teacher Zhao.

Hello, Teacher Ling. Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping also said hello.

Zhao Ling helped introduce, These two are Zhou Yan and Jia Guoping from the composition department.

Hello, please sit down for a while. Teacher Zhao is teaching inside and I don't like others to disturb me.

The three of them nodded and sat down in the living room. Zhao Ling poured another glass of water for each of them.

Ling Yuan asked with a smile, What are you doing here to come to Teacher Zhao?

Zhou Yan explained his purpose to her, It's like this. We have a movie now and want to find a child with a relatively high piano level. Senior Sister Zhang said that the number one student enrolled in the attached primary school this year is Teacher Zhao's student, so I came to find Teacher Zhao. Ask.

Ling Yuan nodded, You want to find Lang Lang, he is taking classes inside.

Lang Lang? Zhou Yan was stunned, and then looked at the door of the teaching room.

Well, the child's name is his full name. Ling Yuan said with a smile. Many people thought it was a nickname when they first heard Lang Lang, but they didn't know that this was his first name, so she added the latter sentence.

Zhou Yan never expected that the first place recommended by Zhang Xinning for admission to Yangyin Affiliated Primary School would be Lang Lang, a top pianist in the world.

When he came, Zhou Yan was still thinking that he needed to test the child's piano skills first... There was a high probability that there would be no problem, after all, he ranked first in the entrance exam.

Secondly, it depends on whether you have acting talent. At least you must have an outgoing personality. You cannot be the kind of kid who doesn't even want to talk.

Finally, we have to look at the child's appearance. Although it is very realistic, there is nothing we can do about it. Being too ugly will definitely not work.

But now that he heard the name Lang Lang, Zhou Yan threw all these thoughts behind him. He decided that as long as Lang Lang was willing to star in The Pianist Who Wants to Fly, the male lead would be Lang Lang's.

Go away with your acting talent, looks, those things!

Let’s grab this potential stock first and then talk about it.

Ling Yuan saw the surprise on Zhou Yan's face and didn't think much about it. He thought it was because of Lang Lang's special name.

Then Ling Yuan asked about the movie again, What movie are you talking about? Aren't you a composer?

Jia Guoping, who was standing next to him, helped explain, Zhou Yan is currently working part-time as a soundtrack for some movies and has also made short films. This is a cross-border development. The movie he is writing now is related to piano.

Ling Yuan didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a young man playing for fun.

Times have changed, and many of today’s children are not doing their jobs properly.

Ling Yuan is engaged in education in a middle school and knows everything about today's children.

Many of their piano students do not focus on their majors, but just play new and trendy things every day.

In the past, she would definitely criticize when she saw it, but now she has gradually opened her eyes to it. Times have changed, and their perspective on things must also develop.

Zhao Ling, who was standing next to him, suddenly said, Zhou Yan is a great composer. He wrote Memory of the Forbidden City.

Ling Yuan raised his eyebrows, Oh, is it the song you often play?

Zhao Ling's face suddenly turned red and he turned his head, Mom, don't talk nonsense. I don't play often.

If you play it every day, doesn't it count as playing it often? Ling Yuan teased his daughter, then looked at Zhou Yan, That piece of music is quite interesting, but it was obviously not written for the piano.

Zhou Yan nodded, Well, there are a lot of synthetic sounds in the original version, which belongs to the new century style.

Oh, New Age. There are quite a lot of it abroad now, but it's rare in our country. It's a new thing. In fact, Ling Yuan doesn't know much about New Age music.

Her current work focus is on middle school education, and she doesn't pay much attention to international music trends. She only knows that this thing exists, but she doesn't know what it is exactly.

After that, several people chatted about other things, such as how Jia Guoping feels about staying in school now, and whether there is any pressure in taking care of students.

Zhao Ling was silent for a while because of her mother's teasing, but after all, she had a cheerful personality. After a while, she adjusted her mentality and continued chatting with Zhou Yan and the others.

In their family, this kind of teasing is normal. Zhao Pingguo and Ling Yuan are both enlightened parents. She and her brother have not had much pressure since they were young, and they just let nature take its course when learning piano, and they progressed step by step.

The few of them chatted for about half an hour before the door of the teaching room opened and Zhao Pingguo walked out.

The three of them greeted him, Teacher Zhao.

Zhao Pingguo heard someone talking outside just now, but the voice outside was not loud, and he didn't know who it was. When he came out, he saw the three people and said unexpectedly, Xinning, Xiao Jia, why are you here.

Zhou Yan's face was still a little less well-known, and Zhao Pingguo didn't recognize it.

Ling Yuan smiled and said, This is Zhou Yan, he came to find Lang Lang.
