Chapter 371 Why do you think you care about them?
Langlang chuckled.
He sat down on the other side of Li Jinglin.
"When your heart comes, it's good that the people are there. It doesn't matter whether you have something or not."
"?"
Li Jinglin was joking, but he never thought that Langlang would be so natural.
"Okay, okay, it'll be good when people arrive."
Li Jinglin pursed his lips and gestured to Langlang at the Steinway piano next to the box.
"Go ahead and play a song for me to cheer you up. Consider it a congratulations."
"Haha, okay, okay."
Langlang is not annoyed either.
He happily walked over and planned to have a chat.
It's obvious at first glance that the two seem to play with each other like this often.
When Langlang started playing the piano.
The waiter next to the box stared straight-eyed.
Yes, the waiters at this Intercontinental Hotel have seen the world.
But I have never seen Li Jinglin + Lang Lang, two of the most important combinations in the classical music world.
It's great to be able to watch this kind of musician's private performance and communication up close.
If tickets were sold for such an exchange, I’m afraid all the tickets would go crazy.
Langlang played a short piece that lasted about three and a half minutes.
Still his favorite Liszt.
The gorgeous technique, coupled with the casualness in personal relationships with friends, is obviously very free of oneself, and it seems to be very Liszt's taste.
"Lao Li, look, I've already done it for you."
Langlang suddenly looked serious.
"But I also nominated you, do you have to give me a section too?"
"Good good!"
Li Jinglin smiled, but did not refuse.
He just looked at Luo Shiyao, with his hands on his waist, looking very proud.
"Yao Yao!"
"here I am!"
Of course Luo Shiyao knew that Li Jinglin was going to pretend, so she immediately stood up with a sweet smile in a very cooperative manner.
"Bring me my famous piano - the Stradivarius [Savior] worth more than 20 million US dollars!"
He glanced at Langlang.
I found that Lang Lang's expression froze.
At this moment, Li Jinglin simply couldn't feel sour anymore.
"Give my good big brother Langlang Zhangzhang eyes!"
"Okay, Master~"
"?"
Langlang couldn't hold it any longer.
"Okay, Lao Li, you are playing this trick with me, right?"
"Hmph, you are a piano player. You are all performers. Apart from your skills, what's wrong with the Bibi?!"
Li Jinglin was confident.
He hummed twice and glanced at Langlang.
"What's wrong?!"
"!"
This wave, this wave belongs to the victory of the violin.
The value of the instrument.
From a beginner's perspective, a piano is undoubtedly much more expensive than a violin.
Even if the violin needs to be replaced several times since childhood, it cannot compare with the value of a piano, which can easily cost 100,000 yuan.
Not even a fraction.
But what if it really reaches the level of a musician?
It can basically be said to be flat.
Until they gradually reach the top level, the value of violins and pianos will expand in reverse, and the gap will be quite large.
The price of a piano can range from US$100 million to around US$300 million, making it one of the most expensive pianos in the world.
The most expensive piano Langlang has ever played.
It was Heinzmann's crystal piano from the 08 Olympics.
Moreover, with the two-way blessing of Langlang and the 08 Olympic Games, it was bought for US$322 million afterwards.
And what about Li Jinglin?
This violin is seven times better.
The more you use a piano, the bigger the problems will become. It is an instrument with a long life. As time goes by, the piano will go downhill.
But the violin is an antique instrument that gets better as it gets older. As time goes by, it will become more and more perfect.
"Okay, okay, my dear Uncle Lin, please quickly use your famous Stradivarius [Savior] worth more than 20 million US dollars to play a song and save my lost soul!"
Langlang complained and waved quickly.
It immediately caused bursts of laughter in the box.
And the next meal.
Naturally, you play a song and I play a song, and the two of them will wildly change the content of their works, and they will cooperate with each other from time to time.
It is completely an alternative form of "Qin Dou".
They continued playing for a long time, and the two of them stopped after the food was served.
"Old Li, did you have some friction with that Victor before?"
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Langlang suddenly asked.
"Huh? There was no friction. I just asked him a few questions."
"."
God question.
Langlang rolled his eyes without hiding it.
"Okay, okay, you're right."
"However, I heard that there was trouble with the Grammy organizing committee, and it was because of you."
"what?"
Li Jinglin was slightly stunned. He nodded immediately.
It seemed that he had unintentionally helped someone.
Obviously, the Grammy organizing committee cannot be monolithic.
Fighting or something like that is not unusual.
Someone will take advantage of Victor's problematic time period at this juncture to attack this old enemy.
It's not an uncommon thing either.
"Oh, that Victor"
Li Jinglin sneered and told Langlang what happened before.
Langlang raised his eyebrows.
In fact, unlike Li Jinglin, there are really very few lighthouse people who deal with Langlang.
Most of the elite class are also very smart, and no one will look for trouble.
But... it's not impossible. Although Lang Lang has never encountered it himself, he has heard of many similar things.
Unexpectedly, this happened to me.
"Hey, it's just Mu Qiang here. You don't have much business in the lighthouse, so it's not a big problem."
Langlang curled his lips.
Judging from past experience, this Victor is probably going to be cold.
"Actually, I encountered similar problems at the beginning, but I was young at that time and couldn't really feel it. After I could understand it, my reputation in the lighthouse also increased, and I really didn't encounter it after that. been."
"Heh, I'll leave after the awards show anyway."
Li Jinglin spread his hands indifferently.
"It would be great to go back and watch TV shows."
Anyway, when I go out, I have an attitude of don't cause trouble, but don't mess with me.
If you meet someone like Victor, that's it.
The more stunned you are, the more helpless he will be to you.
If Li Jinglin had scrupled about the so-called "international friendship" at the beginning, he would not have become friendly.
Look, how obvious the effect of this beating is?
When he saw it off after the party, he behaved like a grandson.
"Okay, don't talk about this!"
Langlang smiled heartily and changed the topic.
"Why do I feel like you've been taking so many orders for game soundtracks recently?"
"Huh? I didn't pick them up too much, just two."
Li Jinglin raised his head.
"Actually, I was thinking of finding a variety show to play in after I finish the soundtrack work for "Elden's Ring", to take a vacation and earn some extra money."
"Then how about we go together?"
Langlang pinched his chin and spoke thoughtfully.
Different from Li Jinglin.
Li Jinglin is involved in many and wide fields of music.
Langlang, on the other hand, only develops in traditional classical music.
This also brings up a problem.
The alley is deep.
Seeking exposure has always been a problem, but it is also an objective problem that it is difficult for classical music works to reach the public directly.
Langlang also frequently participated in entertainment variety shows before.
But obviously, the harvest is not proportional.
At the beginning, Langlang thought that being down-to-earth would attract more attention and make the work more noticed.
But in fact it is.
It does attract more attention, but most of it is criticism. Others will think that you should practice piano and perform and make music instead of participating in variety shows. And it is difficult to convert the fans you attract into attention for your work.
Putting the cart before the horse only leads to burnout.
Therefore, Langlang has stopped recently and will not participate in variety shows for the time being.
At this time, listen to what Li Jinglin has to say.
It always feels like Li Jinglin has his own ideas.
Then you might as well follow along.
Maybe Li Jinglin can solve this problem better.
As expected, Li Jinglin spoke soon.
"If you participate in a variety show, you have to be selective. Otherwise, not many people will pay attention to your work. Instead, you will attract a lot of BBN people."
"It's annoying."
Listen to what Li Jinglin said.
Langlang simply felt that this was so right!
The original plan was to expose it to attract more people to pay attention to my work.
But I never expected that he was either a fandom person or a pure fun person.
I also thought about popularizing science music in variety shows to express some musical and artistic things.
But the one who became popular in the end was "Dangdangdang" who taught children to play the piano.
The work didn’t receive much attention, but it became popular in the ghost community.
It’s not that I’m disgusted, nor do I think there’s anything wrong with being popular in the ghost zone, but if the attention of the work doesn’t increase, then participating in variety shows will really only make money. It doesn’t matter whether you play the piano or talk about music. It doesn’t matter anyway. People pay attention.
"Actually, there is a transition. Many new viewers know me from variety shows, and then gradually transfer to my works."
Langlang smiled.
"But relatively speaking, the criticisms are more numerous. I'm a little confused now. If I continue, more people will pay attention to my works, but the criticisms will multiply."
"This is so normal."
Li Jinglin raised his eyebrows.
"Some people will define it themselves, thinking that you as an artist must be aloof and detached from the world. Once you want to take the initiative to spread the word, they will change their face and say "I don't understand art anyway, listen. I don’t understand your stuff], I defined myself without even hearing it. I just heard the word art and rejected it from the bottom of my heart.”
"For some high-minded artists, I think it is their so-called art that rejects the public."
“But for some idiots, it’s not that art is superior, but that the so-called masses like them reject art.”
Speaking of it.
Li Jinglin's face was filled with an expression of "Why are you paying attention to them?"
"I haven't started yet, but I'm not good. People who don't understand easily define themselves by "I think" and think that the world should run according to their stereotypes. Are there too many mentally retarded people in the world?"
"They don't represent the public."
"If you can let one more person feel the deep meaning of music and get more aesthetic experience, even if a hundred people lick you, it's still worth it."
