Chapter 347 0347, Visiting West Lake (1)
Tang Yu didn't know that she had used Yunfeng's music to participate in the competition, which caused a heated discussion among the jury of this National Piano Competition, because this had never happened before. Generally speaking, contestants would choose songs with ratings, such as those by famous pianists such as Claire, Bergli, and Nierst.
It's a simple truth. Ratings mean that the difficulty has been certified and recognized, which is convincing.
The fact that Yunfeng and Tang Yu appeared in the Magic City Division of this National Piano Competition Open Trial also spread on the Internet.
"Did Yunda and Tangda participate? Isn't this too cruel to other contestants?"
"Hey, don't say that, it's easy to attract negative attention to them."
"Yes, be low-key, after all, they mainly play Chinese national instruments."
"I'm afraid they can't be low-key anymore. I just checked online. The third place in the youth group of the last National Piano Competition was Tangda."
"No, no, no, this time they are participating in the professional group competition, and the contestants' piano level is the best in the country."
...
The discussion between the two fans and the discussion among passers-by pushed this topic to the hot search list of Weibo Circle.
"I heard that the number of applicants for this National Piano Competition has increased several times compared to the previous one. There are at least 30 to 40 applicants from our school alone."
"The competition is so fierce. Only the top three in each group in each competition area will enter the finals."
"The best in our school should be Tang Yu, Yun Feng, Tao Rui, Zhang Lanxia, and Geng Mingsheng. They are often mentioned by the piano teacher."
"When I was a freshman and sophomore, I often saw Yun Feng and Tang Yu practicing in the piano building. They were so diligent."
"Come on, senior Yun Feng and senior Tang Yu! Bring back a championship for our Magic City Conservatory of Music!"
...
The forum of the Magic City Conservatory of Music also became lively due to the students' discussions.
————
At noon, in the school cafeteria of the East Campus of the Magic City Conservatory of Music.
A young teacher said, "Who do you think will win if Yunfeng and Tangyu meet in the finals?"
A female teacher who taught Tangyu's class said, "Tangyu, she works very hard on the piano, while Yunfeng is a busy guy who has too many things to do every day."
A male teacher who taught Yunfeng's class said, "It's hard to say. In terms of proficiency and technique, Tangyu may have the upper hand, but in terms of the interpretation of the music and the emotions when playing, I think Yunfeng has the upper hand."
At this time, Yan Lide and Wu Zhongyu came over and happened to hear their conversation.
Yan Lide said gently, "Your discussion is meaningless because Yunfeng didn't participate in the competition at all."
"Ah?"
"Really, Professor Yan?"
"Why?"
...
When they heard the news, they were all surprised.
Yan Lide smiled and said, "We'll have to ask Yunfeng."
Wu Zhongyu found an empty table and sat down.
Yan Lide stopped chatting with the teachers and went to sit opposite them, saying, "Old Wu, I heard that several people who have won awards in international piano competitions are also going there. Do you think Xiao Tang can handle it?"
Wu Zhongyu took a sip of soup slowly and said, "Her piano skills are becoming more and more mature. It is not an exaggeration to rank her in the top three among the young generation in China."
Yan Lide reminded him, "Did you forget? The professional group is 16 to 36 years old, and there are a group of experienced people."
Wu Zhongyu didn't think so, and said, "She has a lot of experience. She has participated in various piano competitions since elementary school, and she is also Played in the Rome Concert Hall. "
Yan Lide nodded slightly, and suddenly sighed, saying: "It's a pity that Xiaoyun didn't participate."
Wu Zhongyu asked: "Did you ask him the reason?"
Yan Lide smiled helplessly and said: "He told me that he was too busy and hadn't practiced the piano for too long. "
Wu Zhongyu pondered: "He is not a major instrument, so it's better not to participate, so as to distract less energy."
Yan Lide said: "Isn't his energy distracted enough? He writes novels, writes songs and sings, and draws comics."
Wu Zhongyu said: "Who makes him so talented?"
At the same time.
The plane that Yunfeng and Tang Yu took had landed at Xiaoshan Airport.
This weekend, the two of them chose to visit West Lake.
"Master, go to Linyang Street, Jinxiu Home." After getting on the taxi, Yunfeng reported the destination to the driver.
"Okay." The driver set the navigation and started the car.
Tang Yu's heart was beating fast, and she lowered her voice and said, "How about I...let's stay in a hotel first?"
Yun Feng patted the back of her hand and said, "Don't be nervous, my parents are easy to get along with."
Tang Yu was indeed not ready to meet his parents. She originally said that she would accompany him to find inspiration, but she refused again and again, fearing that he would be unhappy.
Yun Feng carefully noticed that her palms were full of sweat, and wondered if he was a little anxious.
In fact, his idea was very simple. He thought that since he came to Hangzhou to visit West Lake, he could just stay at home.
"Master, let's go to West Lake Hotel instead." Yun Feng changed the destination to the driver, and then smiled at Tang Yu and said, "Wait until you are ready, then go to my house."
Tang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension eased a lot. She secretly glanced at Yun Feng and asked tentatively, "Are you angry?"
Yun Feng stretched out his hand and gently scratched the tip of her nose, saying, "What are you thinking about? How could I be angry about such a small thing?"
To be honest, if he were to meet Tang Yu's parents now, he might be even more nervous.
After arriving at the West Lake Hotel, they checked in and put their backpacks in the room.
Yunfeng brought Tang Yu to Louwailou for lunch.
This is a Jiangsu and Zhejiang restaurant. The golden door plaque is particularly dazzling under the sunlight. The carved corridors and painted pillars in the restaurant are antique, and the light and plain colors give people a fresh and peaceful feeling, which is full of Chinese flavor.
Fortunately, it was during the May Day holiday, so there were fewer tourists and no need to book a seat in advance.
The two sat down in the small elegant room. The waiter immediately delivered tea, paper towels, and a tablet for ordering dishes, and asked: "Do you want me to recommend dishes to you?"
Yunfeng smiled and said: "Thank you, no, we order by ourselves."
The waiter said: "Okay, call me anytime if you need it." After that, he left.
Yunfeng swiped on the tablet and ordered Dongpo pork, boutique West Lake vinegar fish, boutique shrimp Longjing, boutique beggar chicken and Song Sao fish soup, a total of five famous Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes.
Tang Yu didn't have any food taboos. Although he wasn't a foodie, he accepted everything.
Half an hour later, the dishes began to be served.
The waiter was going to explain the ingredients or stories behind these dishes, but Yunfeng sent him away. As a native of Hangzhou, did he need someone else to tell him?
After enjoying lunch, Yunfeng and Tang Yu went back to the hotel to rest and have fun tomorrow.

The West Lake is surrounded by mountains on three sides and the city on one side. Two embankments lie on the waves and three islands float on the water. The scenery is beautiful and the colors are different in different seasons.
As the saying goes, the West Lake in the daytime is not as good as the West Lake at night.
But.
The West Lake in the early morning also has its unique beauty.
The rays of light shine on the calm lake, reflecting the glittering golden light, which is very dazzling.
Yunfeng and Tang Yu walked hand in hand on the 100 dikes of West Lake. The breeze gently brushed their cheeks, cool and moist, refreshing. The soft branches of the willow trees swayed gently in the wind, and the lake surface also gently rippled. Looking around, it was a lake view like a beautiful picture.
If the "Yunfeng" is not counted, this is the first time Yunfeng has come to West Lake in two lives.
In the previous life on Earth, I always saw people on the Internet saying that the beauty of West Lake only exists in poems, videos, and photos. I went there and found that it was not as beautiful as I imagined.
Yunfeng has never been to Hangzhou West Lake on Earth, so he can't comment, but Hangzhou West Lake on Blue Star is still very beautiful.
The first attraction they chose was Leifeng Pagoda.
The new Leifeng Pagoda was built on the ruins, restoring the pavilion-style structure of the old tower before it was burned down. It completely adopted the style, design, and size of the reconstruction in the early Southern Song Dynasty.
As soon as you enter the door, it seems to be an exhibition hall, and the entire ruins area is surrounded by glass.
Yunfeng and Tang Yu walked around and went upstairs. The first floor of the new tower had no doors or windows. The mythical legend "The Legend of the White Snake" was divided into six large three-dimensional scenes for display.
Seeing that there were only a few tourists, Yunfeng sang softly: "Bai Suzhen under the Qingcheng Mountain, has been cultivating this body in the cave for thousands of years, ah...ah..."
Tang Yu covered his mouth and smiled, and asked: "What song are you singing?"
Yunfeng then realized that although there are film and television dramas adapted from "The Legend of the White Snake" on Blue Star, it is not the version of "The Legend of the New White Snake" on Earth, so there are no songs like "Waiting for a Thousand Years", "Ferrying Love", and "Bai Suzhen under the Qingcheng Mountain", so he could only make up: "I read the story and illustrations of "The Legend of the White Snake" on the wall and sang it randomly."
Tang Yu smiled and said: "It's pretty good, sing a few more sentences."
