Chapter 136: Chapter 117 Unprecedentedly Tough Solo Queue (4K Extra) (Daily Request for Monthly Votes)

"How should I put this, a flawless performance can indeed help you, Teacher Lin Tian, pass the arts examination."

"But, I think your ambitions must not stop there, right?"

Gao Zhenyang said.

"..."

Indeed.

For Lin Tian himself, he is a person who strives for perfection in learning.

Throughout his three years of high school, Lin Tian’s academic performance has always ranked among the best.

He is seen by all teachers and students as a representative of talent and hard work, and the perfect student in everyone’s eyes.

Such is the strong-willed Lin Tian.

Since choosing the path of art, he must do his utmost!

How could a man who overshadows others in academic performance be content with being a mediocre student in art?

"What should I do?"

"Just like I said earlier, with your current ability, you can only manage to pass the arts examination, but the top scorers in the annual unified examination... often need a bit of inspiration, something that can touch the examiners."

Gao Zhenyang switched into the mode of an arts examination instructor and changed the way he addressed Lin Tian, seriously explaining to him,

"Teacher Lin Tian, what you’re missing now is this very thing, something that can impress the arts examiners at first glance."

Lin Tian’s current performance, to put it in simple terms—

Is too orderly.

Perhaps, as a professional-level piano accompanist, responsible for complementing the cello, achieving this much is quite commendable.

However, when Lin Tian, as an art examinee, takes on a humble stance to independently complete a piece,

Lin Tian’s current result is mediocre.

"Teacher Lin Tian, it’s evident that although your piano skills are superb, you still lack some understanding of the arts examination."

"The arts examination is not as simple as it seems. Our Qingjiang is considered a big province for arts examinations, producing many musical prodigies each year that astonish everyone, and the level of internal competition is beyond imagination. And the difficulty of Zhonghua Music College, as the nation’s leading music university, is even higher."

Gao Zhenyang gestured with his hands, vividly describing,

"You might think your competitors are ordinary arts examinees who have struggled through high school for three years and hurried to participate in the competition."

"But in fact, in last year’s batch of examinees, there were several musical prodigies who joined the Zhonghua Music Association before they were adults, along with several immensely popular Inner Entertainment stars, and a crowd of little internet celebrities with followers on the short video platforms..."

Although officially it will never be admitted that these well-connected examinees are given an advantage,

The fact is, over the years, there has been no shortage of exposed scandals.

For example, last year, a Douyin internet celebrity with millions of followers, during the arts examination at Capital Film Academy—

Brazenly introduced herself and announced her name.

This is a blatant act of cheating in the strictly anonymous arts examination.

And while other examinees were dressed in the required uniforms, she wore her own DIY clothes.

If that were all, it could be overlooked.

At most, they would just turn a blind eye.

But it’s said that this big internet celebrity had abysmally poor professionalism, and her performance in the exam was excruciating to watch.

And yet...

She eventually ranked 26th nationally.

The 26th place, what a humorous ranking.

In the end, it was the other examinees on site who felt this was unfair and exposed the incident on Douyin, and it just happened to go viral.

Under the overwhelming public opinion...

Capital Film Academy then announced they would "investigate this matter seriously" and revoked the internet celebrity’s admission.

This is the case with just one internet celebrity.

So is it really so odd if a big star is directly given a position without an examination?

What, are you dissatisfied?

...

This is what Gao Zhenyang wanted to convey to Lin Tian.

The arts examination is not that simple.

His competitors are not only the musical geniuses from all over the country but also various phonies he could never even imagine.

Gao Zhenyang wasn’t suggesting that Lin Tian should also look for shortcut methods.

Instead, if you’re going to do something, pursue excellence!

The only thing to do is to be the best!

"Teacher Gan Yanyu’s method of performing indeed can be learned."

What Gao Zhenyang mentioned here was nothing else but Gan Yanyu’s ability to "resonate with the soul of the composer."

Currently, Gan Yanyu’s capability in this regard is terrifying.

The only side effect is the impact on her own mental state, but once displayed, it’s absolutely deadly.

"That ability to immerse oneself completely in music, allowing her to effortlessly interpret the piece from any angle with her own understanding," Gao Zhenyang added.

"How should I learn that?"

Lin Tian was taken aback.

He had long been aware of Gan Yanyu’s ability, but had never systematically studied it.

It could be a stereotype.

Because Gan Yanyu always gave him a certain impression.

That is, only people with extremely abnormal mental states could achieve this.

"Well, I can’t do it myself."

Gao Zhenyang spread his hands.

"???"

"If I had that kind of ability, I wouldn’t be here being a university teacher, haha."

Gao Zhenyang laughed self-deprecatingly.

He had been caught off guard by the talent of Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu when they first met.

Now talking about this topic again, he took it in stride.

"However, I can do some research for you. I think since you have a great example like Teacher Gan Yanyu next to you, there’s no need to look into other methods—just try and see if you can emulate."

"For example, take this piece of music as an example."

As he spoke, Gao Zhenyang gently pressed down on the piano keys.
