Chapter 120 Your match, of course I want to watch!
Ning Yi took a deep breath and calmly walked onto the stage to stand in the middle. Looking at the countless audience members below, it was impossible not to feel nervous.
The judges below signaled that she could begin, and as the lights flashed, she picked up the strings and slowly began to play.
At this very moment, Ji Yan was also watching the live stream on his iPad. After waiting for a long time, he finally saw the person he had been longing for.
His little Yi looked so beautiful today, so beautiful that he wanted to grab her and pull her into his arms so that he could admire her alone.
He specifically took some time off to watch Ning Yi's match live.
His fingers traced the image of a girl engrossed in playing the violin on the screen, and tenderness welled up in his eyes.
After she finished playing the violin, the audience applauded. She clearly saw the judges' approving looks. Due to time constraints, each contestant would not stay on stage for long after their performance, and she was then led off the stage by staff.
Fang Wenyi saw Ning Yi's past competitions and awards on the big screen and couldn't help but show surprise in her eyes.
"Xiao Yi is amazing!" An Xiaonuo couldn't help but say from the side.
Although they were backstage, there was a large screen inside where they could see everything on stage.
Ning Yi participated in the Damman International Music Competition in the UK four years ago. In China, this competition is only open to those who have won awards in some well-known competitions and have a certain level of recognition.
Furthermore, Ning Yi has participated in many other large-scale performance competitions. Logically speaking, there are indeed more and more competitions abroad than in China.
When Fang Wenyi first saw Ning Yi playing the violin on stage, she thought she was a highly skilled violinist. So, Fang Wenyi took the initiative to get to know Ning Yi with the intention of making friends with outstanding people.
However, to her surprise, Ning Yi was far more outstanding than she had imagined.
Fang Wenyi stared intently at the big screen at Ning Yi's performance; she had to admit, it was truly impressive.
After Ning Yi finished her performance, she went to the dressing room.
"Xiao Yi, you're amazing!" An Xiaonuo said as she stepped forward.
Another girl saw Ning Yi come in and went up to her: "I just heard the piece you played. You rearranged it so well. I've heard the original."
Ning Yi smiled at them and said modestly, "Thank you."
A strange glint flashed in Fang Wenyi's eyes, then she pursed her lips and stepped forward: "Xiaoyi, you did a really good job."
"Actually, I was really nervous just now. I'm sure you'll perform exceptionally well when you go on stage later," Ning Yi said with a smile.
Ning Yi went over to get her coat and other things, and some other classmates also came up to her and chatted for a few words.
She took out her phone and saw a message from Ji Yan.
Ji Yan: It seems you performed well today.
Ji Yan: You look beautiful today.
Ning Yi looked at her phone and couldn't help but smile, then replied.
Ning Yi: My match is over!
Ningyi: You have time to watch the live stream?
She had told Ji Yan about the live broadcast of the competition and performances in the past few days, and mentioned the WeChat official account to him, but she thought Ji Yan probably wouldn't have time to watch it.
Two minutes later, Ji Yan replied to the message.
Ji Yan: Of course I'll watch your match.
Ji Yan: It's a real pity I can't be there in person.
Ning Yi: There will be plenty of opportunities in the future [playful]
After chatting for a while, Ji Yan had to go back to work, and Ning Yi also had to go back to her apartment to rest.
She had just stepped out of the lounge and hadn't taken two steps when a middle-aged man approached her.
"Hello, Ms. Ning, I just watched your competition performance, and it was exceptionally well done," the man said with a gentle smile.
Ning Yi looked her over a few times before replying, "Thank you. May I ask who you are?"
The man introduced himself: "I'm an agent from Oriental Entertainment Company, my name is Ander."
"Miss Ning not only plays the violin beautifully, but she is also very pretty. So I would like to ask if Miss Ning has any plans to enter the entertainment industry?"
Ander handed his business card to Ningyi.
Ning Yi frowned slightly, then shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I have no intention of entering the entertainment industry."
The man didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he kept his business card up, saying, "Ms. Ning, you can think about it carefully. There's no rush to answer. You're excellent in every way; if you enter the entertainment industry, you'll definitely make a name for yourself."
Ning Yi couldn't refuse any longer, so she accepted the business card, but she had no intention of entering the entertainment industry.
In the past two days, not only have talent scouts from the entertainment industry reached out to her, but some art troupes have also contacted her. Ning Yi has only accepted their business cards and currently has no plans for them.
This competition has also caused quite a stir online.
This instrumental performance competition for college students, organized by the Central Music Association, has naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Instrumental Performance Competition; University Student Performance Competition
"My goodness, no wonder she graduated from one of the top universities in the country; not only are her grades excellent, but she's also incredibly talented!"
"These college students are really good-looking!"
"My goodness, look at their introductions! I saw some of the girls' competition experiences during the live stream today, they're all so amazing!"
"We are all college students, and everyone has talents and skills. Why can't I?"
"The picture I saw on Weibo yesterday was of a boy playing the piano. His looks could easily beat many of the young male celebrities in the entertainment industry."
……
This has attracted a lot of attention not only from netizens, but also from many entertainment companies looking to acquire some promising talents.
They were all around the same age and shared common interests, so they quickly became friends.
Ning Yi also made some friends here, and they found some free time to get together for a meal.
"Cheers, may our future be bright," Chen Ziqian said proactively.
Everyone picked up their glasses full of juice and raised them to toast.
Since everyone is a student and has a teacher supervising them, they naturally can't drink alcohol casually.
"Even if we don't win any awards or rankings this time, it's still worth coming. I have to say the atmosphere is really great," a boy said.
Everyone chimed in with their own comments:
"Yeah yeah"
"This is so much fun!"
"It's also been an eye-opener for me. I used to think I was pretty good, but this trip really showed me the gap between me and my peers."
"Sigh, comparing yourself to others is just asking for trouble. You have to learn to be content."
Fang Yue, holding her glass, smiled at Ning Yi and said, "This trip also introduced me to a beautiful lady. I'll toast you with juice instead of alcohol, Sister Ning."
Ning Yi also raised her glass, smiled, and took a sip.
On Fang Yue's first day in Suizhou City, she was on her period. They were all in the apartment at the time. Ning Yi noticed the bloodstains on Fang Yue's pants and kindly tied her own coat around Fang Yue's waist to cover them up.
That's how they met. But later, seeing Ning Yi's outstanding talent, he admired her even more.
