Lin Yao was the most knowledgeable person among them and had heard a little about everything. When he heard this name, he said in surprise, “This is a seventeenth-century violin. If it can still be used, it’s a priceless treasure.”
“It can still be used.” Wen w.a.n.g’s face lit up as he took out his violin.
Lin Yao and Xia Peifeng were shocked. They could not help going forward and observing. “It’s real!”
Lin Yao said, “I saw it at an auction last time. I didn’t expect to see it here today.”
“It’s also my honor.” Xia Peifeng’s voice sounded a little solemn.
Shen Xinghe didn’t really understand, but after hearing seventeenth century, and Gegrini, he knew that these names were extraordinary. He went forward to take a look.
s.h.i.+ Jin took a glance and looked away.
Wen w.a.n.g smiled and said, “According to our rules today, only Xuexin can try it out.”
Lin Yao and Xia Peifeng revealed a trace of disappointment. They could see it up close, but they could not touch it. Clearly, they were still a little disappointed. However, the rules had already been set. They did not say much and only looked at s.h.i.+ Xuexin enviously.
Shen Xinghe, on the other hand, did not have that many emotions. He knew that this violin was valuable and he was afraid that he would ruin it. It was best if he did not touch it.
s.h.i.+ Xuexin picked it up carefully, held it in her hand, and solemnly tested a few notes.
Even though she was playing the same tune as before, because she was playing with Tanata, everyone naturally felt that there was a unique charm to it, and the feeling was completely different from before.
“Oh my G.o.d, I really saw Tanata!”
“A name that lives in our teachers’ mouths actually appeared. I want to get my teacher to take a look!”
“A once in a lifetime experience!”
“No wonder the production team invited Wen w.a.n.g. It’s really an eye-opener for me.”
“I still have to see Wen w.a.n.g appear on stage tonight. My expectations for this program were not in vain.”
“Wow! I envy s.h.i.+ Xuexin for being able to touch such a good violin with her own hands.”
s.h.i.+ Xuexin only tried a small part before returning the violin to Wen w.a.n.g.
“Master Wen, will you bring this violin to the stage tomorrow?” asked s.h.i.+ Xuexin.
“Of course!” Wen w.a.n.g smiled and said, “When the time comes, I welcome everyone to come and support me!”
He put away the violin and put it in the cabinet.
His collection cabinet was custom made, but it was not locked. It could be seen that he often came to personally clean and tidy up the violins.
It was soon time for dinner. Today, Wen w.a.n.g held dinner in the courtyard. Everyone could watch the sky while having dinner.
Shen Xinghe sighed. “If only I could eat in a house like this forever.”
Lin Yao couldn’t help saying, “Master Wen, after living in a courtyard house like yours, I suddenly feel that my house isn’t that good anymore.”
Wen w.a.n.g could not help laughing.
Xia Peifeng nodded in agreement. “It’s a blessing to be able to live in such a house. If I could sit here and compose, my happiness would double, right?”
He looked at s.h.i.+ Jin, who looked calm and not as agitated as them.
“I’m really envious!”
“It’s great to have such a house in the capital.”
“It’s quiet amidst the chaos.”
“I am Shen Xinghe himself! I am filled with envy.”
“s.h.i.+ Jin is quite calm. She doesn’t seem to be envious of such a house.”
“Everyone has different preferences. For example, I like living in apartment buildings and I don’t like this kind of environment.”
After dinner, they rested for a while before returning to their own rooms.
There was still filming tomorrow and they had to prepare for the concert tomorrow night, so everyone went to bed early.
The next day, everyone followed Wen w.a.n.g and visited his violin room, practice room, etc. They followed his footsteps and once again witnessed the various instruments, music scores and so on in his house.
In the afternoon, everyone started preparing for the concert.
Since it was Shen Xinghe’s first time going to a cla.s.sical concert, he grabbed s.h.i.+ Jin and asked about the process. “Should I wear a suit or something? How do I do my hair?”
The audience burst into laughter. “This is me.”
“There’s no need to prepare too seriously. Just ask the waiter for the menu and order your favorite song. Doge meme.jpg”
“That’s right. Remember to wear a handsome suit and comb your hair like an adult.”
Finally, Shen Xinghe took out the suit he had prepared and dressed up.
He was already quite good-looking. Previously, he was always dressed in sportswear, and the management company did not properly tidy him up. This time, after cleaning himself up, he looked quite decent.
The audience was stunned by him for a while. In an instant, the entire bullet screen was shouting, “Ahhhhhhh!”
On Wen w.a.n.g’s side, there were relatively fewer people watching. However, there were still a lot of violin enthusiasts who especially liked watching him, so the number of people watching wasn’t that small.
He finished putting on his suit and tie and reached for the Tanata he’d prepared earlier.
He held it in his hand and reached out to touch it gently. He cherished it very much and also yearned for tonight’s concert.
He was not young anymore, but this was the first time he was on such a good world stage. He could finally fulfill his long-cherished wish.
Many people on the bullet screen were excited as well. Their love for music made the audience feel the same way as Wen w.a.n.g. However, the next second, Wen w.a.n.g’s expression changed drastically.
Everyone followed his finger and saw that one of the strings on the violin had broken.
It was fine yesterday, but it was broken now?
Everyone remembered that s.h.i.+ Xuexin had tried the violin yesterday and there was no problem at all.
So, the violin had been fine before, but now, there was a problem?
Wen w.a.n.g’s expression was very ugly. He lowered his head to check and said, “It was cut by a sharp weapon.”
The director did not stop recording. Everyone heard what he said.
Considering that the impact was not good, the director cut off the image and did not continue to play Wen w.a.n.g’s video.
However, there was already an uproar in the comments. “So what’s the situation now?”
“Master Wen’s violin was destroyed on purpose?”
“Who would do such a thing?”
“It can’t be someone from the program team, right?”
“s.h.i.+ Jin is still the smartest. She didn’t even touch the violin yesterday.”
“Why did the production team cut the screen? Can’t we continue? We want to watch!”
“Yes, yes!”
The production team immediately comforted Wen w.a.n.g.
However, Wen w.a.n.g’s entire mentality collapsed. “What’s going on? Can any of you tell me what’s going on? Why is my violin like this? Huh? Can anyone tell me?”
