Chapter 333 Plan to meet the regiment leader
"Can you play the piano?" The woman was surprised.
You know, ever since Mo Xiaoxiao left the army, the regiment has not recruited anyone who can play the piano in the past two years. A few days ago, someone named Li Yan came for an interview. Although her performance was average, she was finally accepted.
Now she was naturally very surprised to hear that Comrade Xia could play the piano.
"Yes." Xia Qingying was not humble and gave the other party an affirmative answer. She was here to show her talent, so she didn't want to hide it.
Hearing the conversation between the two, several female soldiers who were practicing the accordion on the side stopped unconsciously and gathered here.
"You play it." The woman looked at Xia Qingli and said with a smile. In her opinion, even if Comrade Xia could play, he would only be able to play a little.
Xia Qingli got the permission, sat down, opened the piano cover, checked the string pins and hammers inside the piano, and after seeing that there was no damage, she closed the cover and placed her fingers on the keys.
Although she hadn't played the piano for a long time, she had practiced for more than ten years and had formed muscle memory. As soon as her fingers touched the keys, music floated out as if it was natural.
The classroom suddenly became silent. Everyone was attracted by the moving music. Just look at the white and slender fingers flying freely on the keys, from the initial soft and soothing, slowly going deep and long, to the final majestic and majestic...
The sound of the piano quickly attracted people from other classrooms around. Soon, people gathered behind Xia Qingxi. Gradually, the classroom was no longer able to stand. Many people stood outside the door, pulling the door frame to look inside.
Although there were many people, it was surprisingly quiet. There was no one talking, only the elegant sound of the piano.
When Xia Qingxi finished playing a song, everyone had not recovered from the shock. After a while, applause rang out.
After this one started the applause, others followed suit, and the applause was thunderous and deafening.
"Comrade, you play really well!" a woman in a green military uniform praised.
"Yes, yes, if you perform at the welcome party, it will be well received!"
"You must be Li Yan who was admitted two days ago. I didn't expect you to play the piano so well. I thought no one except Mo Xiaoxiao could play such beautiful songs."
Amidst everyone's praises, a woman in her thirties suddenly walked in hurriedly. As she walked, she said to the female soldiers who were blocking the way:
"Make way, make way, who's playing the piano, who's playing the piano..."
The woman finally squeezed in. This person was the first woman who came to ask Xia Qingxing what talents she had in the lobby when Xia Qingxing accompanied Mo Ya to register last time.
Seeing Xia Qingxi sitting in front of the piano, the woman was somewhat surprised and somewhat unbelievable, and could not help but say:
"It's you."
Xia Qingxi also recognized the woman and smiled at her politely.
The woman's name was Qin Lian, and she was the leader of the vocal group. Just now, she was instructing students to play the violin, and suddenly she heard the sound of the piano coming from this side. She was shocked and immediately rushed over, standing behind the crowd, and listened to the song silently.
"Did you play it just now?" Qin Lian couldn't wait to confirm with Xia Qingxi.
"It was me." Xia Qingxi nodded in response.
Qin Lian's eyes showed an unconcealable joy, and she praised loudly:
"You play well, you play well." Then she asked:
"How many years have you studied piano? Can you play other songs?"
"Almost two years, and I can play all the famous songs." In order to match her status, Xia Qingqing deliberately shortened the time a lot.
"Only two years?!" Qin Lian was shocked again. In her opinion, to be able to play such a complicated song, at least seven or eight years of practice is required. I didn't expect that the woman in front of her only studied for two years. She was simply a genius.
What's even more rare is that her appearance is so good. She was born for performance. She looked at Xia Qingli and said excitedly:
"Comrade, you have such a good talent, you can't be buried. I wonder if you are interested in joining our art troupe?"
Qin Lian remembered that she had asked her last time. At that time, she said that she came with a friend and that she didn't have any talent. Now it seems that she is deliberately hiding her shortcomings.
Although she doesn't know why she is playing the piano here now, how can Qin Lian miss such a good seedling.
"I am Qin Lian, the leader of the vocal group. If you are willing, I can help you apply for special recruitment into our troupe." Knowing that the recruitment of new people has ended, Qin Lian hurriedly explained to her for fear that the comrade in front of her didn't know about the special recruitment.
"Team Leader Qin, this is Comrade Xia Qingxi from the Propaganda Department. She is here to help with publicity for our art troupe." The female comrade who was receiving Xia Qingxi reminded Qin Lian immediately.
"You are a comrade from the Propaganda Department?" Qin Lian was obviously a little surprised, but she was still unwilling to give up. She looked at Xia Qingxi and continued,
"If you like music and performance, you can also come to our art troupe."
Seeing that the time was almost right, Xia Qingxi looked at Qin Lian and said very politely,
"Team Leader Qin, I want to meet the director of our art troupe before making a decision."
"I can recruit you without the director's approval." Qin Lian saw that she agreed, and a smile immediately appeared on her face and assured her.
"Well, it's like this. I have something to ask the director. Can you help me contact her?" Xia Qingxi replied.
"The leader will come to the troupe tomorrow. I will arrange a meeting for you guys tomorrow."
"Oh, I will report to the Propaganda Department tomorrow, so I want to meet the leader in advance."
"Ah? You haven't reported to the Propaganda Department yet? That's great, that's great..." Qin Lian couldn't hide her excitement, and then she immediately said:
"I'll call the leader now, you wait here for a while."
Qin Lian said, and ran to make a phone call.
After Mo Xiaoxiao left, the troupe has not found a suitable piano player in the past two years. During group performances, it always feels like a soul is missing. If the leader knew that he had picked up such a big treasure today, he would be very happy.
The reason why Xia Qingli knew that as long as she played the piano, she would have a great chance to meet the head of the art troupe was because when she accompanied Mo Ya to register last time, she saw Qin Lian walking out with a girl. Everyone was talking about how this girl could play the piano and that no one in the troupe had been able to play the piano for several years.
So when she learned that the head of the troupe was not in the troupe today, she immediately thought of this method.
As expected, the team leader who was resting at home received a call from Qin Lian and rushed over in a hurry.
