Chapter 306: Gan Yanyu's Big Trouble_3
"How do you feel?"
"Just so-so."
Gan Yanyu closed the door and returned to the sofa.
She took off her shoes, put her feet up on the sofa, and sighed softly,
"Playing two or three pieces in one go is fine, but once it gets to the fifth or sixth... my chest starts to feel uncomfortable."
"And this is just at home... Performing live in front of so many people will only be harder."
.....
This is Gan Yanyu's biggest challenge right now.
A girl so frail and suffering from severe asthma.
How can she complete a concert lasting over two hours?
Even if guest artists can help fill some of the time, if Gan Yanyu herself can't even play continuously on stage for half an hour....
Everything else would just be a drop in the bucket, right?
Thinking of this, Lin Tian felt a bit guilty.
How could he have forgotten such an important issue when planning the concert!
Considering Gan Yanyu's physical condition, being able to stand on stage and perform is already quite remarkable.
How could anyone further expect her to handle the intensity of a full concert performance?
"If I knew it would be like this, we shouldn't have planned it....."
As Lin Tian started to speak, Gan Yanyu hurriedly sat up straight from the sofa, pressing her index finger against Lin Tian's lips.
"Don't say that, Lin Tian."
Gan Yanyu said softly and gently,
"I really want to hold a concert that belongs to us... If, as musicians, we can't even accomplish something like this... it would be a regret for a lifetime..."
"It's my own fault, dragging you down, Lin Tian....."
The girl's eyes drooped as she spoke dejectedly.
Then she mustered up her spirits again,
"But don't worry... I'll train hard during this period to improve my physical condition!"
"This morning, I could only last for half an hour, but just now, I was able to play one more piece!"
As if to prove it to Lin Tian.
Gan Yanyu confidently patted her chest and was about to pick up the cello next to her.
"Alright, alright."
Lin Tian stopped Gan Yanyu,
"I believe you, of course I do, but don't push yourself too hard and ruin your health."
In this regard, Gan Yanyu has a record.
She had previously trained without rest until she fainted.
But that time, Gan Yanyu was practicing "piece proficiency", at least she didn't have to play it all in one go.
This time, it's about training physical endurance... More precisely, challenging the limits of the body.
This can't be taken lightly; Gan Yanyu's stubbornness... Lin Tian knew it well.
She just stubbornly pushes herself into trouble.
If things really went that way, Lin Tian would rather she not practice at all.
"Okay... I won't..."
Gan Yanyu put her legs sideways on the sofa, reached out her hand, and pulled Lin Tian's arm to bring him onto the sofa.
"Look at me today... I practiced for a whole day, and I'm completely fine!"
"I'm now a mature cellist taught by Mr. Lin, how could I still do such childish things."
Gan Yanyu clung to Lin Tian's arm like a clingy little elf.
As she spoke, she blinked her eyes at Lin Tian.
Seeing this, how could Lin Tian resist?
He was immediately captivated.
Lin Tian could only hold his forehead and say:
"Alright... then you go ahead and practice."
"But, it'd be best to practice at my place, or in the café downstairs, don't lock yourself away alone at home, in case something happens, I wouldn't know."
"Okay."
Gan Yanyu smiled brightly.
"..."
Although, of course.
Having Gan Yanyu intensify her training is naturally an important step.
And on Lin Tian's side, he can't just sit idle either.
Concert guest artists... we need to invite some!
The Cosmic Flying Pig Band, as special guests, can certainly help share some of the pressure, but that'll probably just be for 1 or 2 songs.
They are a rock band, their style is quite limited, and they can't be expected to perform constantly on stage, otherwise Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu wouldn't need to perform either.
Actually, the best solution is. To report errors, please visit the original post on M|VLEMPYR.
To properly invite a few more skilled professional musicians.
If they're cellists, even better, they could stay longer on stage and directly help share the lead role for Gan Yanyu.
"There's still no word from He Zhichen, he told me the suitable ones aren't available, and the available ones aren't suitable."
Lin Tian said.
He felt a bit helpless too, he didn't expect that even He Zhichen would face difficulties in solving it.
But that's life.
Even though Le Yun's label has many musicians.
Most of them either don't have the playing skills to match Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu's level, or they're too old.
Lin Tian isn't too keen on bringing in a middle-aged uncle as a guest to help; it would totally change the vibe.
"Then how about....."
Gan Yanyu thought for a while and said,
"We ask Nannali for help?"
"And there's also Teacher Bai Xi, aren't you quite familiar with her?" Gan Yanyu said this with an intentionally innocent, wide-eyed look at Lin Tian.
"Where did that come from, don't talk nonsense!"
Lin Tian quickly interrupted Gan Yanyu, protesting against Yanyu's accusation.
Actually, these cellists from competitions that Gan Yanyu knows are indeed very good options.
Firstly, they are competent and can keep up with the duo's performance level.
Secondly, they share a high overlap in audience, many fans already know them.
But the problem is.
"They were defeated by us... inviting them might feel a bit awkward..." Lin Tian said.
Inviting rivals they've defeated to join the concert feels slightly like an insult.
So Lin Tian decided to pass on this option.
"Alright then...."
Gan Yanyu thought for a second and was about to get off the sofa.
Then suddenly realized she couldn't find her slippers.
"Where are your slippers?"
"In the room."
"Okay."
Lin Tian stood up and walked toward Gan Yanyu's room.
But halfway there, Gan Yanyu seemed to remember something and quickly said,
"No!!"
