Chapter 420 God of Command (Finale)
Just as Yu Tu had thought, this performance by the Harmony Symphony Orchestra could definitely be considered a great success.
It can even be considered the best performance in the first half of the year, bar none.
The performance of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra not only attracted a group of domestic music critics, but also attracted many foreign music critics to listen.
They unanimously gave the Harmony Symphony Orchestra a very excellent label and gave it a score of .
This achievement is extremely rare even on a global scale.
For a time, China was shocked.
Countless musicians come to the Harmony Symphony Orchestra and plan to study here.
The concert hall of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra has also become a favorite among many people.
They scrambled to apply for performance spots at the Harmony Symphony Orchestra Concert Hall, hoping to share in the good luck of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra.
The Harmony Symphony Orchestra was happy to oblige.
While it relieves some of the pressure on the band members, it also brings in a lot of extra funds.
The whole band had a very easy time.
While ensuring one large-scale performance every month, we have added many small-scale performances with different themes.
Chen Qiu also began to take on some social responsibilities with everyone in the orchestra.
For example, holding concerts for some children to improve their musical literacy.
Or come up with some fun music themes and let everyone play music.
Or get some other types.
For a time, the Harmony Symphony Orchestra even surpassed the Haicheng Symphony Orchestra and truly became the representative of Haicheng.
of course.
This is definitely what Haicheng thinks.
For the Harmony Symphony Orchestra, what they truly represent is themselves.
They completely removed the word "Haicheng" from the Haicheng Harmony Symphony Orchestra and basically called themselves the Harmony Symphony Orchestra.
People also like to call them the Harmony Symphony Orchestra.
The name of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra is also very famous throughout Haicheng.
Many Haicheng locals don’t even walk on the citywalk anymore.
They usually even ask if we want to go and listen to Harmony today.
Listening to harmony has become a very popular citizen project in Haicheng.
The large number of performances of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra meet the leisure life needs of Haicheng citizens. Even if they are not interested in classical music, they will like the Harmony Symphony Orchestra, an orchestra with a lively atmosphere.
Strong, fun-loving, and interesting.
Who wouldn't like this kind of band?
But the only regret is.
Su Yue stayed in the Harmony Symphony Orchestra for half a month, then returned to Germany to continue her studies.
To be precise, it should be that she started a global tour with her teacher.
For her, the Harmony Symphony Orchestra has entered a stable period and does not require her to step forward to help the orchestra immediately, so she can also start to improve herself seriously.
The top wind instrument players she brought with her were placed in the orchestra.
Su Yue told them that after this performance, they could stay if they wished.
It all depends on how attractive Chen Qiu is to everyone.
It is clear.
Chen Qiu is a succubus.
At first, the group was a little disgusted, thinking that the Harmony Symphony Orchestra's residence was a little too small.
But after rehearsing with Chen Qiu several times, they had to admit it.
So fragrant.
It’s so fun to rehearse with Chen Qiu.
I really want to keep rehearsing with Chen Qiu.
How about forming a lifelong band? Ouni should!
If there hadn't been a rehearsal conducted by Chen Qiu, Vatasi...
The big names of wind instruments that Su Yue brought back knelt down before Chen Qiu without any principles, and happily rehearsed with the orchestra.
Chen Qiu took them to the Labor Bureau to get work certificates for foreigners, and then to the State Administration of Foreign Exchange to get residence permits so that they could work in the country.
Although this group of people is more troublesome to use, it is really useful.
Chen Qiu led this group of people and quickly stabilized their ranking and strength in Haicheng.
And time passed by minute by minute in such performances.
During the summer, the Harmony Symphony Orchestra went on tour in Europe again.
This time they not only went to Germany, they even went to Italy and France.
I have come into contact with more top symphony orchestras and more people who control music resources.
Everyone's impression of Chen Qiu was no longer the same as before. They just felt that Chen Qiu was an ordinary young conductor.
This time, everyone treated Chen Qiu as a top commander who received the same treatment as them.
And Chen Qiu also proved through his performance that he deserves the respect of this group of people.
The reputation of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra began to spread around the world.
America also began to invite the Harmony Symphony Orchestra to tour.
But it's a pity.
Getting a visa to the United States is ten times harder than getting a visa to Europe. Except for the European group members, getting a visa for everyone else is very troublesome.
Therefore, Chen Qiu could only let everyone do it first.
We will discuss going to America when everyone is able to go there.
With the efforts of the current members of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra.
The following year, the Harmony Symphony Orchestra successfully ranked first in Haicheng and second in the country.
Together with the China Symphony Orchestra led by Yu Tu, they became the twin stars of China.
Don't know why.
Yu Tu seemed to have a second spring in life and began to lead the orchestra in performing various difficult works.
There is absolutely no feeling of being in a bad state like before.
Yu Tu, a veteran in the music industry, combined with his understanding of music, has directly led to a qualitative leap in the strength of the China Symphony Orchestra.
During the time when Su Yue was performing outside.
The Harmony Symphony Orchestra was suppressed by the China Symphony Orchestra for two or three years in a row.
After Chen Qiu discovered that without Su Yue, the quality of the orchestra's wind instruments would not be improved, he decided to let all the band members leave to practice.
Qin Xian also got a US visa and went to the Manhattan School of Music to study string instruments.
The same goes for the rest of the band.
Ai Gu went to Berkeley and started playing jazz rock.
Huang Xin and Ruijia agreed to go to France together, studying in Europe with full scholarships and hanging out with Su Yue.
There are other people who are like that too.
These people's learning is staggered.
Basically, the main force of the orchestra will remain at around 80%.
Chen Qiu also allowed the orchestra to rest in an orderly manner and also guided Zhao Yi's daughter, Zhao Zitong, in learning conducting.
Occasionally, Zhao Zitong would take the orchestra's second group to rehearse and perform.
Chen Qiu knew very well that it would be very difficult to lead the band to defeat Yu Tu without all members present.
It's almost like dreaming.
Therefore, Chen Qiu chose to let everyone improve themselves first and find the right time to surpass Yu Tu.
After all, the gap between the Harmony Symphony Orchestra and the China Symphony Orchestra was very close. The gap between them was barely noticeable, and only was needed to decide the difference between the two.
Chen Qiu was not particularly anxious to surpass the China Symphony Orchestra and become the number one symphony orchestra in China.
If he had more paint on the front, he would have less trouble.
After all, who cares about second place?
Chen Qiu developed quietly with the Harmony Symphony Orchestra.
Yu Tu was on the expedition with the China Symphony Orchestra.
Both parties entered the top 50 in the world at the same time.
It has also established its own position in the ranking of global symphony orchestras.
Until Su Yue's return.
Originally, Su Yue planned to go out and study for a year and then come back, but at Chen Qiu's request, she extended her study time and learned a lot of things from her teacher that she had not noticed.
She has also been traveling around the world to study.
What was originally supposed to be a one-year period was dragged on to six years.
She officially returned to the Harmony Symphony Orchestra in mid-2024, and in the second half of the year, the Harmony Symphony Orchestra's performances were immediately upgraded.
With an unmatched attitude, they surpassed the tacit understanding between them and the China Symphony Orchestra.
Officially became the number one in China.
The emergence of the complete form of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra has given a powerful shock to music lovers around the world.
They never thought that a Chinese symphony orchestra could be so strong.
It even feels like Seiji Ozawa at his peak.
Is this the true strength of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra?
Everyone felt that they might still have reservations about their ideas.
The true strength of the Harmony Symphony Orchestra may be more than that.
Everything was just as they had guessed.
The following year, the Harmony Symphony Orchestra was reorganized.
Chen Qiu led each section of the orchestra to adjust their performance style, so that they could better understand each other.
Not only that, the orchestra's sponsor Lianhe also built a new, large concert hall on the outskirts of Haicheng.
They acquired a new piece of land and built a commercial district with a concert hall as the main feature, as well as a school and hospital, to accommodate the employees of their group.
Out of selfish motives, this concert hall was made particularly luxurious, and the interior design was also modified by a master. The sound effects can almost be called the best in the country!
This Lianhe Concert Hall suddenly became the dream hall for many orchestras.
With all members back in full form and a new concert hall, the Harmony Symphony Orchestra is in great shape!
After the new rankings of Musician magazine were announced in the new year, the Harmony Symphony Orchestra narrowly succeeded in squeezing out the 20th-ranked Czech Philharmonic Orchestra Eská Filharmonie and became one of the top 20 symphony orchestras in the world.
Even if we managed to make it into the top 20 in the world with a very small score difference, our position is not solid.
But no matter what, they finally reached the top 20 in the world!
The moment this news came out, the world was shocked.
They didn’t just shock Harmony Orchestra’s scores.
They were even more shocked by how long it had taken the Harmony Symphony Orchestra to get to where it is today.
How long did it take for the Harmony Symphony Orchestra to be established and become one of the top 20 in the world?
At most it feels like it's been about 7-8 years.
A symphony orchestra that was established 7-8 years ago, with the efforts of a group of students, became one of the top symphony orchestras in the world?
This is not a miracle, this is a miracle!
Chen Qiu was invited by countless symphony orchestras to cooperate with them and perform with them.
In the West, Chen Qiu is even called a conductor favored by God.
He is Karajan, the reincarnation of Furtwängler.
He is the representative of world music.
There are even some radical magazines that directly call Chen Qiu the God of Conductor!
Despite being surrounded by so many media, Chen Qiu did not act particularly ostentatious.
On the contrary, he is extremely low-key.
In a place that no one knew, Chen Qiu, wrapped in a thick black down jacket, and Su Yue came to Yong'an Cemetery in the suburbs of Haicheng.
This day was not a day for burning paper, and the sky was a little gloomy, so there were not many people in the cemetery.
In the empty cemetery, there were only some elderly gravekeepers doing some simple cleaning.
Water the trees and pour out the ashes from the burnt paper in the iron bucket.
Chen Qiu and Su Yue walked along the fenced path all the way inside until they came to a lush forest.
Under the shade of the woods, white tombstones stand tall.
This is where Chen Qiu’s parents, Chen Yuan and his wife, live.
When they were just buried, the trees next to the tombstone were about the same height as Chen Qiu.
More than ten years have passed, and the big tree has become taller than Chen Qiu, much taller.
Chen Qiu stood in front of the tombstone, looking at the photos of his parents on the tombstone, and fell into silence.
Su Yue looked at Chen Qiu's expression, feeling a little worried, and gently squeezed Chen Qiu's palm.
Chen Qiu turned his gaze and met Su Yue's worried expression, and forced out a slight smile.
He shook his head gently at Su Yue.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I just... feel a little emotional."
"Sentimental?"
Su Yue looked at Chen Qiu in confusion, not quite sure what Chen Qiu meant by this sigh.
Are you feeling emotional because you have become one of the top 20 symphony orchestras in the world?
Or are you feeling proud that you have surpassed your parents?
Chen Qiu did not explain to Su Yue.
He just looked calmly at the tombstone in front of him, reached out and touched his ears, with a smile on his lips.
I don't know when, the fire that had been surging in my heart gradually calmed down.
He never told anyone about his time travel.
He still remembers the day he first arrived, the moment he felt his absolute pitch, and the fire that ignited in his heart.
A fire that wants to rebuild the band.
The flame that established the band as number one in the world.
This is the expectation of the original owner and also his dream.
Rebuild the orchestra and become the world's number one conductor!
Now, everything can basically be considered settled.
The orchestra has been rebuilt and has reached the top in China.
Although he is not the world's best conductor, he can be considered the world's best conductor of the younger generation.
Basically, it can be said that as long as he lives a few more years and outlasts those old guys, he will be number one in the world.
So, in a way...
"It seems that the goals of the first half of my life have been almost completed?"
Chen Qiu talked to himself in front of the tombstone.
He turned his wrist and held hands with Su Yue behind him. There was a hint of tenderness in his eyes. He took out a small box from his pocket and asked Su Yue.
"So, Su Yue, are you willing to spend the rest of my life with me? In the presence of my parents?"
Su Yue was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on her lips.
Although confessing in front of a tombstone is a bit abstract, this is the situation in Chen Qiu's family.
That being the case.
Su Yue nodded slowly and said softly.
"Yes, I do."
