Old Master Guan Hongshun was a legend in the music world.
He had served as a Professor of Music at several famous international universities and had been appointed “Honorary Professor for Life” by the famous Belize Conservatory of Music.
He was the honorary chairman of the National Arts Committee, and he had won some of the most prestigious music awards from all over the world. Also, he wasn’t just great at the piano.
The world knew that he had made great achievements in the field of the piano. What they did not know was that in addition to the piano, he also knew cello, violin, flute, and many other musical instruments. You could say that he was a true music virtuoso.
Why would such a respected musician, whom they could not normally meet, appear here?
Wang Qingping almost thought that he had seen wrongly.
He rubbed his eyes and confirmed that it was really Old Master Guan!
Wang Qingping said in a trembling voice, “Old Master Guan, we all thought that you had retired. We didn’t expect to see you here. Do you have plans since you’re in the capital? Will there be a lecture this year?”
Wang Qingping asked quite a few questions in just one breath. Guan Hongshun waved his hand and said impatiently, “We’ll talk about it later. Can’t you see that I’m trying to recruit a student?”
Wang Qingping: “…”
He felt that he was in a fantasy world.
First, he met a piano genius, then he meets Old Master Guan.
Now, Old Master Guan was trying to recruit this piano genius but the piano genius did not want to accept his offer?
What did they say, all geniuses had pride? Even if the other party was Old Master Guan, he couldn’t make the other party submit?
Wang Qingping was silent.
He had never seen Old Master Guan being so attentive.
When he had entered the National Arts Committee, Old Master Guan had not completely retired yet. Occasionally, when the committee holds a music competition, he would still see Old Master Guan’s person.
At that time, he always had a cold look, always surrounded by a group of people. When he commented on the performance of the contestants, he was merciless. He could make the contestants cry on the spot. Behind his back, he was given the title of “Cold-Faced Guan”.
Now though, his entire face was filled with a smile. When he looked at Jiang Yu with a pleasant expression, it was really difficult for people to associate him with the usual cold-faced judge they knew.
Everyone was shocked.
This plain-looking old man was actually the famous Old Master Guan!
It had been a long time since he appeared in public. Many of the people present had not seen him before, so they did not recognize him.
Ni Manman exclaimed, “It’s actually Old Master Guan…”
Any student of music has heard of Old Master Guan, but now, they were all actually lucky enough to see such a person standing before them…
And this big shot was begging Jiang Yu to be his student?
Jiang Wan’s mind was filled with one sentence.
Why?!
Why is it always Jiang Yu?!
Meanwhile, everyone’s focus was on Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu did not think too much about it and refused, “Thank you, but there’s no need.”
Guan Hongshun said aggrievedly, “Young lady, I want to be your teacher. Won’t you please consider?
“Think about it, if anyone dares’ look down on you in the future, wouldn’t you be able to persuade them to leave just by using my name? It would save you a lot of trouble. You wouldn’t even have to play the piano to prove yourself!”
“How can these ordinary people be worthy of listening to you play the piano?”
