It was an old professor of the Yanyin Music Department named Liu Shurong who said that Wang Xuan was joking to teach "Musicology Theory".
The words are a bit harsh, and he is too senior.
Liu Shurong has been teaching at Yanyin for many years, and his qualifications are not low. He has high prestige even in the education field. He is the only one here who dares to talk to Li Rulan like this, and no one else dares.
Li Rulan heard this and said: "I don't agree with what Professor Liu said. As the top musician in the industry, Professor Wang Xuan is definitely top-notch in terms of musical literacy and theoretical skills, and is fully capable of teaching."
"No, these are two different things. I admit that Professor Wang Xuan's musical literacy is very high, and he is probably better than all of us here. But as a music lecturer, the key is not how much you understand, but how to express this knowledge to students. Let’s listen.”
Professor Liu never thought about competing with Wang Xuan in terms of musical literacy, because he knew how to compare. He was the one who was beaten.
Although he is also a professional lecturer in musicology, he has been in this field for decades and enjoys a reputation in the industry. But comparing musical literacy with a top songwriter is like comparing singing skills with a chef. There is no comparison.
If he could compare with Wang Xuan in musical literacy, he should at least be a top composer. Why would he need to stay at Yanjing Conservatory of Music to teach?
Department chair Lin Wenbin also said: "It's not appropriate. Professor Wang Xuan's musical quality is absolutely nothing to say. But this doesn't mean anything. Music lecturers are very hungry for teaching experience, and teaching experience needs to be accumulated and accumulated. Professor Wang Xuan is too young. , this aspect must be very lacking.”
"Second. It's not that I look down on young people, nor am I biased against Professor Wang Xuan, but that's the fact. Wang Xuan's accumulation and accumulation are not enough to undertake the work of a lecturer. He is more like a teaching assistant. Who are the lecturers in our college? Who didn’t start out as a teaching assistant?” Another associate professor of the music department echoed.
"The question is, are any of the lecturers in our college, including all of you here, a top composer? Wang Xuan is now recognized as a top musician in the industry, what about all of you here?" Li Rulan asked.
"..." These words immediately choked everyone present.
Li Rulan said: "So there is no comparison between the lecturers in our college and Wang Xuan. Regardless of musical literacy or musical achievements, Professor Wang Xuan has reached the pinnacle. If anyone questions Professor Wang Xuan's teaching First, compare your musical achievements with Wang Xuan's level, otherwise there will be nothing to discuss.
I called everyone to a meeting, not to discuss whether Wang Xuan was suitable for teaching, but to discuss how to teach Wang Xuan's first class. For example, whether to advertise it widely, whether to open a larger lecture theater for him, or whether to let him hold classes directly in the auditorium. "
Liu Shurong: "..."
Lin Wenbin: "..."
The associate professor: "..."
"A big lecture theater. With Professor Wang Xuan's reputation, if he came to teach, wouldn't the students go crazy? He would definitely spread the word, so small classrooms are not suitable at all. I guess the media will swarm here, This is why I am a little opposed to Wang Xuan coming to teach. If the teaching effect is good, it is fine. If the effect is poor, it will be a big loss to the reputation of both Yanyin and Professor Wang Xuan." An old professor suggested .
"Don't worry about this problem. I believe Professor Wang can definitely do it. Then let's book a large lecture hall. I'm going to say something ugly here. When Professor Wang comes over, don't show any face to him. Anyone who offends Wang The professor is not happy, but I want to settle accounts with him.
You don’t know how difficult it is to hire Professor Wang, and other famous art schools have no idea how many connections they have found, but they can’t hire Professor Wang. It took me a lot of effort to invite Professor Wang to join us at Yanyin, and I still owe me a big favor for this. "Li Rulan said seriously.
As soon as these words came out, everyone present rolled their eyes. Xin said that even if you say ugly things, we can't show off to him. That's Wang Xuan. Let's not talk about his status as a top songwriter, just talk about being a super star. Who dares to show off to him?
"But can Professor Wang's class hours be guaranteed? I'm afraid that the class hours cannot be guaranteed. After all, everyone knows that Wang Xuan is a super star, a top composer in the industry, and he has a company behind him." Someone asked.
"The class hours can be guaranteed, but the time of class cannot be guaranteed. Professor Wang promised me to take at least 4 elective courses every semester in the future. In fact, you don't have to worry about Professor Wang's class hours at all. Let's take a look at Professor Wang's first Let’s look at the teaching effect and the students’ response. If students generally report that the teaching is not ideal, I will consider reducing Professor Wang’s class hours. Professor Wang may not even need to teach in the future, and just ask him to come and chat with the students. Act as the face of our Yanyin.
But I still say that, I believe Professor Wang can definitely do it. "Li Rulan said.
Everyone nodded.
Li Rulan had already said that, so naturally no one said anything more.
...
On January 10th, Wang Xuan came to Yanjing Conservatory of Music as scheduled.
Of course, he must have come quietly, driving directly in a commercial vehicle from the Tianhai Yanjing branch. Yes, during this time, Zhu Xu and Li Tao have established a Tianhai branch in Yanjing to facilitate the settlement of some of their artists who come to Yanjing to participate in activities.
In addition, Wang Xuan also brought sunglasses and wore some camouflage equipment throughout the process.
It’s the price of being famous!
In the past, Wang Xuan didn't hide anything when walking on the road. He could also walk on the road, visit shopping malls, and look at his long legs with admiration.
But now, these pleasures are no longer available. If he dares to travel in a big way now, he may cause traffic jams in an instant. Super A-list superstar is by no means just talk.
Music Department office building.
Before Wang Xuan arrived, Li Rulan and a group of people from the music department were already waiting for Wang Xuan's arrival in front of the office building. Many students saw this scene and were still a little curious and puzzled.
"So who is Dean Li Rulan waiting for? In all my years in Yanyin, I have never seen Li Rulan be so aggressive."
"It's probably the leaders from above who came to inspect," someone said. As soon as he finished speaking, a row of black Huachi commercial vehicles drove slowly over and stopped directly in front of the Yanyin Music Department office building.
Unfortunately, I didn't see who got out of the car. I saw Li Rulan and others directly surrounding the business car, and then the group moved into the office building.
Of course, it’s not like no one saw it clearly. After all, Wang Xuan is so tall, he stands out in front of Li Rulan and others. It's just that Wang Xuan wore sunglasses and some camouflage equipment on his face. The camouflage equipment was not removed, and the crowd couldn't recognize him just by looking at him.
So no one connected the person who got out of the car with Wang Xuan at all.
"Professor Wang, have you decided what class to teach?" Li Rulan asked Wang Xuan in the living room of the Yanyin Music Department office building.
"I can only say that I have a general idea, but the specific content to be taught must be decided during class. Mainly, I want to communicate with the students for a while to see what classes they want to listen to. If I give a lecture, I must talk about something that the students are interested in, otherwise It’s useless even if I talk about it in a dazzling way, I’m just trying to make myself happy. After all, students must be able to listen and be interested in listening,” Wang Xuan said.
"Well, you have a good idea. Anyway, I leave this course to you, and I believe you can arrange it." Li Rulan said.
"Don't trust me so much. Let me say it first. I don't have much experience in teaching you. If you don't speak well, don't rely on me." Wang Xuan took a precaution in advance.
"It's great that you can come and teach the students. Don't feel any pressure." Li Rulan said. In fact, after hearing Wang Xuan's words, she became more confident in Wang Xuan.
"By the way, Professor Wang, we have discussed it here. For your first class at Yanyin, I will arrange a large lecture theater for you. Do you like it?"
"Okay." Wang Xuan nodded. He also knows his influence. Although he is taking an elective course and I heard that not many people take this course, there will definitely be a lot of people coming by then. Therefore, it is most appropriate to arrange a large lecture theater.
After getting Wang Xuan's permission, Li Rulan made a phone call and explained the matter.
…
It's past eight o'clock.
The announcement from the music department campus rang.
Teaching buildings, dormitories, playgrounds...as long as the speakers are covered, a repeating sound can be heard.
"Notice that students who have taken the "Musicology Theory" course will gather in the large lecture theater in Building 3 at nine o'clock. Please tell each other!"
"Notice that students who have taken the "Musicology Theory" course will gather in the large lecture theater in Building 3 at nine o'clock. Please tell each other!"
It's already January 10th, and there are only about ten days left before the winter vacation. At this time, most students in majors have no classes and are waiting for the subject exams to come. Only some first-year students have classes.
So this broadcast immediately confused many people.
"What's going on? What on earth is going on? If I remember correctly, "Musicology Theory" should be an elective course, right?"
"Yes, it's just an elective course. An elective course that is of no use at all."
"That's strange. Isn't it just an elective course? As for using such a large force to notify others to go to class? Even the campus radio is used."
"I find it strange too. What you don't know is that this elective course is a bit strange. People who took this course last year heard that they didn't have to take a single class and they were given credits directly afterwards."
"Shall I go? Are you so happy? If you had known, I would have taken this course."
...
When they heard this broadcast, most people didn't pay much attention to it. It didn't matter to them anyway, they just discussed it.
Some people complained that the broadcast affected their rest.
Only a handful of people in the music department who had signed up for the "Musicology Theory" elective course pricked up their ears.
Yao Nan is one of them.
When the radio rang, Yao Nan and several friends from their dormitory were sleeping in the dormitory. I was stunned when I heard the broadcast.
"Eh? Did the radio call us? Did we all take "Musicology Theory" as an elective?"
"That's right."
"Are you sick? You haven't had any classes for a semester, and now you're telling us to go to the lecture theater? What's going on?"
"No need to ask, a new teacher must have been hired. Finally, we are no longer stepmothers." Yao Nan said.
"Ah? Invite a new teacher? How do you say this?"
"Didn't you notice that the instructor of this elective course we took has not been announced? I guess there was something wrong before and there was no instructor to teach at all. This is why we haven't had a single class since last semester. But the reason why I got the credits directly.”
"So it's really possible!"
A few people stopped sleeping and got up from the bed, washing up and discussing.
Lin Lili said: "Who are you talking about as the new teacher?"
Yao Nan guessed: "Who knows who it is? But I feel that he must be bald, or he is an old professor with gray hair. All teachers in the music department are like this."
"Maybe she's an old lady."
"Pfft, I'm hoping for the stars and the moon, and finally I'm hoping for this old man."
The girl in the dormitory next to her was also washing up, and she added: "I don't want him to come. How lucky are those who took this course last year, and got the credits directly. But now we are required to go to class, and we may have to take exams, so if we fail The risks are much higher."
"That's right."
"I don't care, if I fail the class, I will curse our teacher to be bald!"
…
The second teaching building on the west side of the campus.
In a lecture theater, many students came one after another.
The classroom is very large and can accommodate at least more than 500 students.
However, not many people signed up for the "Musicology Theory" elective course. Putting together the Yanyin Music Department's several grades, only about 100 people signed up for this subject this semester.
Of course, compared to other elective courses, there are already enough people taking this subject. After all, it is not a popular elective course.
In fact, many people choose to take this course because they heard that this course does not require classes but can earn credits. Otherwise, there would not be so many people taking this course.
The result is now....
Except for some who have not returned to school, almost all the students in this course have arrived. The first row of the classroom is a restricted area. Basically no one sits there. Everyone is concentrated behind the lecture theater, chatting and talking, but they are still missing. The figure of their mysterious new teacher.
"Not coming yet?"
"It's not yet nine o'clock."
Over there, Yao Nan also took out his mobile phone, opened the music software, searched a few times, and then couldn't help but said depressedly: "Why hasn't it been uploaded yet? I'm really anxious!"
The girl asked: "What are you uploading?"
Yao Nan was a little annoyed, "That song "The Swordsman" played by teachers Wang Xuan and Huang Zhan was the piano and flute ensemble."
Cheng Xiaoyou shouted, "Hey, classmate Xiaonan, are you still a fan of Wang Xuan?"
"Of course it is. It's like you are not a fan of Wang Xuan. I know that you have collected several "Fairy Tale" albums and Wang Xuan's posters."
Hearing this, a senior next to them who didn't know them chimed in and laughed: "Yes, yes, who is not a fan of Wang Xuan? Wang Xuan YYDS, no explanation."
A senior student next to him interrupted, "Isn't it Wang Xuan's mouth that is so deceptive?"
"Pfft! This is also true. I don't believe a word of what this guy says."
I was idle and everyone was chatting about the entertainment industry. You said something to me.
Gradually, someone looked at the watch.
"What time is it?"
"Why aren't you here yet?"
"Where's the new teacher? I have classes later."
"Ah, here it comes, eh, look outside, that person seems to be Dean Li Rulan? Why is Dean Li here? Damn it, she can't be the substitute teacher, right?"
Hearing the sound, everyone looked over.
Li Rulan and a young man walked over one after the other.
"real or fake?"
"It's impossible for Dean Li to teach as a substitute. What level does he have?"
"Yes, Dean Li is not really an academic person. He just came to Yanyin to be gilded. After passing the qualifications, he may have to return to the Ministry of Education or other places to become an official. Hey, there is another person behind Dean Li. Personally, wearing sunglasses? Why does it look familiar?"
"Who is that young man? He can't be our new teacher, right?"
"Can't? So young."
"Don't you think that young man looks familiar? I always feel like I've seen him somewhere before?"
Yao Nan, Cheng Xiao, Lin Lili and others were also puzzled.
The next second, Li Rulan walked into the classroom, looked at the students, and said gently: "I've kept you waiting for so long. The course "Musicology Theory" has not been taught. That's because your teacher is too famous. He is still a busy man, but today I finally caught this busy man for everyone. Let us give a round of applause to welcome your new teacher—Professor Wang Xuan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xuan was already standing in front of the podium, slowly taking off his sunglasses, "Hello everyone."
For a moment, there was a sudden silence in the classroom, and then it erupted more violently. Unbelievable screams echoed through the sky.
"ah!"
"Holy crap, it's Wang Xuan! Our mentor is actually Wang Xuan!"
"Ah, ah, Wang Xuan, is it Wang Xuan?"
"Am I dazzled? Pinch me quickly to see if I'm dreaming? Our new teacher is actually Wang Xuan?"
"Wang Xuan is our new teacher?"
Scream!
consternation!
Unbelievable!
Yanyin's students were all excited!
