Over the past few years, Tang Guo had long since transformed from a pitiful little girl into a slim and graceful young lady.
Due to her talent in the piano and her hard work, her piano skills were comparable to that of a professional pianist.
Moreover, she was taught by Song Qingyu.
After she got into university, Tang Guo often performed in various parts of the country.
It was not only to continue honing his skills, but also to earn money to support his family.
With Song Qingyu’s help, she could occasionally be seen in TV shows, movies, or variety shows.
Therefore, Tang Guo also had some fans in China.
However, in the eyes of ordinary people, piano was considered an elegant art. Most people could only listen to the excitement. Professional or not, they did not understand at all.
As Tang Guo’s reputation gradually rose, there were naturally people in the piano industry who were on good terms with her.
Not long ago, Tang Guo had received a ticket to the International piano festival from someone in the industry.
It happened to be the weekend, so Tang Guo rushed to the concert hall in A City early in the morning.
There were very few people at the entrance of the concert hall, and no one was interested in the posters standing on both sides.
When Tang Guo passed by, she took a few more glances.
On the huge poster, the biggest line of words was, “Welcome to the performance of the international piano master, Ulysses.”
Below this line of words, there was a string of names written in very small font.
There were only two Chinese names.
Tang Guo had more or less heard these people play the piano, but she hadn’t heard them play it live, so she couldn’t tell how good they were.
It wasn’t Tang Guo’s first time entering A City’s concert hall. After showing her ticket and going through security, she found the seat in the middle of the second row with ease.
The concert hall occupied a large area and could accommodate nearly 2,000 spectators. It had even held a small concert before.
The last time Tang Guo had been here was three years ago.
At that time, Song Qingyu had asked her if she wanted to perform, but she had rejected.
At that time, Tang Guo had only felt that her level wasn’t high enough.
Now, perhaps she could ask the teacher if she could help arrange it.
Just as Tang Guo’s thoughts drifted away, the other audience members also entered the venue one after another.
There weren’t many people who liked to listen to piano music, but there were so many people in A City that it was unlikely that 2,000 seats wouldn’t be filled.
Moreover, there were many media outlets preparing to shoot ahead.
When the time came, the host finished his opening remarks, and then a little boy around six or seven years old played the piano. After a simple song, it was time for the piano master that Tang Guo had been looking forward to.
Since Ulysses ‘name was on the poster and took up so much space, his skill level should be very high.
Tang Guo was filled with anticipation.
The surrounding audience was the same.
In the end, after the host introduced a series of honorary titles, it was not Ulysses who appeared, but his student Wendell.
Wendell didn’t even look at the people below the stage. He only raised his eyebrows at the host and took the microphone to introduce himself.
“Excuse me…” Where was Mr. Ulysses? I’m sorry, sir. I’m not questioning your piano skills, but we invited Mr. Ulysses…”
It was obvious that this was the first time the host had encountered such a situation.
Wendell clicked his tongue as if he was hesitating to tell the truth. Then he glanced at the audience and laughed contemptuously.
“My teacher said that he changed his mind.”
” He feels that it’s not worth it for him to perform in a piano desert like China, so I’ll be performing in his place.”
Such a direct tone of disdain made the host’s face darken.
Most of the audience understood what he meant, including Tang Guo.
They never expected that this person would actually dare to speak his heart out loud!
This made the audience very angry.
At the same time, more and more people poured into the live broadcast room opened by the media.
News spread extremely quickly on the Internet.
As soon as Wendell finished speaking, the live broadcast room had already been shared through various channels.
In less than a day, Wendell’s mockery of China would spread across the country.
But Wendell himself did not seem to care.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have said such words.
“Is there something wrong with what I said?” he sneered when he saw the emcee’s expression.
” Although I’m only a student of my teacher, I think I’m much better than the so-called outstanding pianists in China.”
The newcomer to the live broadcast room exploded with anger because of such direct ridicule.
[I want to rush up and tear his face apart]
[That’s disgusting. We don’t have a decent pianist yet.]
[xx He’s definitely not good. He’s only very good in the country. He can only be said to be unknown internationally…]
[Isn’t that too aggrieved? Are you just going to lie flat and let yourself be mocked?]
[Wiry don’t someone rush over and slap him a few times?]
[How about a gunny sack?]
[Where’s Sister Pomelo? Can Sister You do it? I remember that she used to play the piano in her early years. Didn’t she also teach students?]
[What’s that student’s name again… Tang Guo?]
[Yes! Tang Guo! Can she do it?]
[Who knows…]
Whether it was the people in the live broadcast room or the audience, they were all looking forward to someone going up and tearing Wendell apart.
Wendell, however, did not seem to notice anything. He laughed wildly and pointed backstage.
“Or is it that you can find a better pianist than me in your country? Was it the people waiting behind them? Or do you have a hidden trump card?”
He sneered and brought up a few names, causing the entire venue to fall silent.
Most of the audience could understand piano music.
It was because they could understand that they understood the gap between pianists. It was like an insurmountable gap.
The scene seemed to have reached a stalemate.
The organizers were even more angry and anxious. They were already discussing in private whether they should just let Wendell play. After all, it was a ” piano desert ” and he was often ridiculed by the foreign media.
He was the only international pianist who had changed his nationality…
Just then, the phone in Tang Guo’s pocket vibrated a few times.
She took it out and saw that it was a message from her teacher.
Song Qingyou: [I saw the live broadcast of the piano festival. Were you there?]
Tang Guo sent him an emoticon.
Song Qingyu,[It’s your turn to go on stage.]
Tang Guo asked,[Huh???] Teacher? I’ll go up?]
Song Qingyu,[This is a great opportunity for you to become famous overnight.
You can directly challenge Ulysses.]
Tang Guo asked,[Can I?]
“Believe in yourself.”
Tang Guo didn’t reply to his message for a long time.
Actually, she wanted to go on stage herself.
One was anger.
They were angry that outsiders were behaving atrociously in their own territory.
The second was confidence.
She believed in more than ten years of hard work and the outstanding talent that many people in the industry praised.
He even believed in Song Qingyu’s ability and skill.
This teacher of hers was the one who truly hid his true strength.
After Tang Guo replied with the word ” okay,” she happened to hear Wendell’s wild questioning:
“Or rather, who dares to challenge us?”
