Chapter 313 Lu Wei's thoughts
.
"I want to invite you to be a student at the Curtis Conservatory of Music, how about it?" As soon as Grafman said this, in addition to Kong Xiangdong, who had known the answer for a long time, Lu Wei and Xiaoling were both stunned.
"Mr. Grafman? Do you invite me to be a student of the Curtis Conservatory?" Lu Wei asked again with some uncertainty.
"Yes, after seeing your performance tonight, I feel like you have fully met the admission standards of Cotis, so I formally invite you to be a member of Cotis Conservatory of Music, as the dean of the Cotis Conservatory of Music." Grafman said, with no joking on his face.
Kong Xiangdong, who was standing by, heard Grafman's words. Although he had known Grafman's purpose for a long time, he still showed a happy expression unconsciously. He quickly winked at Lu Wei on the side and asked him to agree quickly. As a student who graduated from the Conservatory of Cotisse, Kong Xiangdong knew the status of this conservatory in the music education industry. It is precisely because of this that Kong Xiangdong felt that this opportunity was rare. As Lu Wei's teacher, he sincerely hoped that Lu Wei could further study in this famous conservatory, which would definitely have great benefits for Lu Wei's future growth.
After saying this, Grafman smiled and prepared to wait for Lu Wei's answer. According to his original idea, when he heard his invitation, as long as Lu Wei was not unaware of the reputation of the Curtis Conservatory, he would definitely not choose to refuse. Therefore, the smile on his face was full of confidence. However, what surprised Grafman was that Lu Wei, who heard his invitation, did not immediately agree happily as he imagined, but showed a hesitant look.
"What? Lu Wei, is there any problem?" Grafman asked unexpectedly when he saw Lu Wei's reaction.
"Lu Wei, Cotis is a very good music academy. You go there. It is very good for your playing career. You have to think about it carefully." Seeing Lu Wei hesitating, Kong Xiangdong said anxiously.
Looking at the expectant look of the two people in front of him, Lu Wei thought about it before smiling at Grafman who was looking at him:
"Mr. Grafman. Thank you very much for your invitation. I will consider this matter carefully, but I think I cannot reply to you immediately. After all, I am still a student of Changli Normal School in Hebei. I have to discuss this matter with the school and family."
Kong Xiangdong immediately became anxious when he saw Lu Wei just seemed to refuse, and then he heard that Lu Wei was just trying to think about it. He was relieved and secretly blamed the student for everything being good at piano. He just didn't know what was going on and didn't want to go to a professional music school. He was both able to do whatever he could when he was invited by Jin Tielin and Zhou Guangren, including Grafman's so, and I really don't know what he was thinking.
Hearing Lu Wei's answer, Grafman did not show an unhappy expression and smiled heartily: "Haha, that's right. Such a big thing really needs to be discussed carefully. It doesn't matter. I will keep the invitation to you until the end of this game. I hope that by then, I can hear your affirmative answer."
"Okay. Thank you again for your invitation. Mr. Grafman." Lu Wei said with a polite smile.
Next, several people did not mention this matter again. Instead, they talked about some topics about piano. Grafman was obviously a very talkative person. Especially when talking about piano, the whole person immediately became funny and full of vitality. In just a few dozen minutes of conversation, Grafmann showed that Grafman had a very profound and unique insight on the piano. Many views and ideas gave Lu Wei a refreshing feeling. He seemed to talk casually, but Lu Wei felt that he had gained a lot of things inadvertently.
Looking at the hands on the clock on the wall, it was already pointing to ten o'clock in the evening. Grafman stopped talking about his own topic. He stood up and smiled:
"Lu Wei. I think it's all here today. You'll be preparing for the final the day after tomorrow. I hope you can perform well then. I'll say the same thing. Cotis invites you and will keep it until the end of this game. I'll wait for you to reply."
"Okay, Mr. Grafman. I will seriously consider it. Thank you again for the invitation." Lu Wei stood up and shook hands with Grafman. Then he said in his voice. The few people exchanged a few greetings. Lu Wei and Xiaoling sent Grafman and Kong Xiangdong to the entrance of the Holiday Hotel.
He stopped a taxi. Kong Xiangdong sent Grafman into the car. Then he said to his ear: "Teacher Grafman, please go back first. Lu Wei and I have something to say."
Of course, Grafman knew that Kong Xiangdong stayed behind and wanted to continue to persuade Lu Wei, and said with a smile: "Okay, you have a good chat with him, I believe he will not refuse the invitation from Cotis."
Lu Wei and Xiaoling were at the entrance of the hotel, not knowing what the two of them said. They only saw Kong Xiangdong sending Grafman away and then turned back.
Seeing Kong Xiangdong walking back towards him, Lu Wei smiled and said hello, but found that Kong Xiangdong, who had just smiled, had a look of unhappiness at this moment.
"Lu Wei, I said, what's wrong with you? You won't know what the Curtis Conservatory of Music means to a piano student. Dean Grafman personally asked you for an invitation. Why didn't you agree to such a rare opportunity immediately?" Kong Xiangdong said urgently. It's no wonder that he had done a lot of trouble to strive for Curtis and turned to others. He naturally hoped that Lu Wei would cherish this opportunity.
Seeing Kong Xiangdong's complaint, Lu Wei was not angry at all and said with a smile: "Teacher Kong, I didn't say I didn't agree to him, I just said that I would consider it again. This answer is not considered a rejection."
"Consider? What to consider? Do you know how rare this opportunity is? The Piano Department of the Costi Conservatory only recruits fifty students a year, all over the world! Do you know what this concept is? From there, almost all of them are world-renowned pianists! You said, what else do you need to consider in this environment and such conditions?" Kong Xiangdong said a little unhappy. In fact, he was so anxious because Lu Wei, after all, Lu Wei is the student he values the most. However, Lu Wei started too late. Although he has an unparalleled talent, if he does not receive a systematic and formal music education, his final achievements will definitely be limited. This is what he is most anxious about.
"Haha, Teacher Kong, don't be angry. I must think carefully, and I must think carefully." Lu Wei said with a smile, but he just didn't express his opinion, as if he was deliberately annoying Kong Xiangdong.
"Hey! I'm just going to stay for extra money. I know that you're so bad-tempered. OK. I won't say much. If you have to think about it, just think about it carefully. It's too late, and I have to go back." Kong Xiangdong said helplessly. After saying that, he was about to turn around, and as if he remembered something, he continued: "By the way, I performed well tonight, but it hasn't reached your best level yet. Don't be proud! In the finals, you guys will perform well for me. Do you know?"
Looking at Kong Xiangdong's serious expression, Lu Wei also put away his smile and nodded seriously, "Yeah, it must be." However, the serious expression seemed to be pretending no matter how you looked, but finally didn't say it out, turned around and pulled a taxi and got in and left.
After watching Kong Xiangdong leave, Lu Wei and Xiaoling return to the hotel.
There were only two people left in the room, Lu Wei and Xiaoling. Lu Wei couldn't wait to embrace Xiaoling's slender waist from behind and took her to the bed.
"Ah!" Xiaoling screamed, then punched Lu Wei in anger, and pressed his dishonest hand down.
"Hey, I heard from Teacher Kong that this Cotis Conservatory seems to be quite famous. Why didn't you agree at that time?" Xiaoling turned over and pressed Lu Wei under him. A slender finger gently drew circles on Lu Wei's clearly contoured face, breathing like a lyric.
With a smile, he grabbed the jade hand that made his face itchy, put it on his lips and kissed it lightly. Lu Wei smiled and said, "You can bear to leave me when you go so far."
"Tsk, what's there to be something I can't bear to give up?" Xiaoling said with a smile.
"Okay, do you want me to go so far, right? I have rejected so many invitations from the school and just wanted to accompany you, but you didn't understand my painstaking efforts at all." Lu Wei said, sighing.
Seeing Lu Wei's miserable appearance, Xiaoling couldn't help laughing again, put his hands on Lu Wei's neck, and asked with a funny look: "Just fool me, you really don't go because you can't bear to leave me?"
"Yeah, really." Looking at Xiaoling's unbelievable look, Lu Wei's face no longer had the joking expression just now.
Seeing the person under him suddenly become so serious, Xiaoling sighed quietly. In fact, she also understood Lu Wei's intentions.
"Advisor, go, I know your dreams, don't be because of me..."
