Chapter 68: Celebrations and windfalls
The unprecedented enthusiastic response and unprecedented success, except for the Rhine standing silently, this is the most direct evaluation of this concert by other musicians. That crazy and continuous applause is unmatched by every concert they have participated in before. And the owners of these applauses still rule Aalto, the nobles who sponsor the musicians, and the authority of the music industry.
And these musicians are highly musically literate, and several of them can also be called performers. They have basic judgments about the fate symphony, and have their own expectations for the final result. They were infected with music and a warm atmosphere, and they were more excited than ever.
Victor was very excited because of his success and wish to complete. He hugged Rhein forward: "Thank you, Mr. Rhein, this concert cannot be so perfect without you transforming the piano and your superb playing skills."
"But the most important thing in the concert is the music. This is the glory of you and Lucien, Mr. Victor." Rhein, who has always been silent, hugs Victor with a smile and celebrates the success of the Chancellor Concert.
Balussian was embraced enthusiastically by cellist, Thomas, a bearded man, "Mr. Evans, you can be the most famous musician in Aalto and even the entire continent."
I respect and politely, this is to treat Lucian as a musician completely, which makes Lucian, who is used to being called by his name, a bit uncomfortable.
At the beginning of the rehearsal of the Destiny Symphony, musicians such as Thomas were very optimistic about Lucien's future and were more polite to him, but Lucien who had not achieved any achievements was not enough for them to call him sir, but at this concert , Lucian was praised unanimously by the three most powerful men in Aalto, especially in the music industry, Archbishop Vaurit and Princess Natasha have very high ratings. One is described as unparalleled. , Who even called Lucian as a music changer.
It is conceivable that with the release of "Music Review" and "Symphony Review" in the next year, Lucien will become a rising star in the music industry of the entire continent, and can be called a musician, even if he even The piano has not yet been mastered.
And as long as he has another work above the next two years, his status will be completely solidified. Even if this trend of thematic music begins to prevail, Lucian will become the authority of the symphony in the music industry. Therefore, the attitude of musicians such as Thomas towards Lucian has changed 180 degrees.
Victor hugged musicians in turn and thanked them for their cooperation. Although the status and income of musicians are much higher than musicians, a successful concert is inseparable from the cooperation of musicians.
Rhein came to Lucien and smiled and gave him a hug: "I can imagine that in the next many years, there will be more and more such theme music expressing some kind of emotion, even with religious themes Become the mainstream of the music industry, Lucian, haha, or it's time to call you Mr. Evans, you will be the pioneer of this trend. "
This way of celebrating the concert's success, Lucien did not reject it even if he didn't like it, but hugged Rhein: "A pioneer who can't even master the piano? Mr. Rhein, your violin just now It's great, but it's just a little less passionate. "
Balussian tried to test Rhein with words. At the same time, he felt that although Rhein looked very thin, his arms were very strong and his body seemed to contain a lot of strength.
也许 "Maybe I'm a quieter person without too intense emotions." Rhein loosened his arm and explained casually, but not what Lucian wanted to hear.
As he hugged the musician, Victor hugged his students one by one, and Lucien did everything he did.
"The complete Symphony of Destiny is awesome." When embracing, Felice rose with excitement and praised Lucien. The concert was a great success. Victor's status in the music industry will be significantly improved. This road will be of great help. At the same time, her classmates are praised by the three great men. Felice has been able to imagine herself surrounded by other noble ladies and wives.
He also gave Lucien a powerful hug: "It's crazy applauding, Lucien, it's very proud to know you."
希 When Herodotus hugged Lucien, he just said quietly, "You are excellent."
In the end, Victor came to Lucien with a smile and gave him the warmest and most powerful hug: "I don't know how to thank you, Lucien. My greatest luck, and the Lord's gift to me, is that there is no Refuse you to learn text with me. "
"I'm lucky to know you," Lucian said sincerely.
Victor loosened his arm: "Yes, there is one more thing, this concert will have half of your income. Lucian, don't refuse, this is what you deserve, with this money, you don't need to continue I live in Adejeang. Although poverty and suffering can inspire you, it is everyone's instinct to pursue a better life. It is also inspiring. Adejeang is too dangerous. "
According to Lucien's knowledge, in addition to the small stand in the west and a few private rooms, the chanting hall has a total of 365 seats for the high class.
Although the seats look a lot, Aalto is the capital of the Principality of Vaorite, the city of chant of the church, the city closest to the Dark Mountains, the front line against dark creatures, pagans, heretics, and the mainland There are several bustling big cities, so there are many nobles and priests, and there are more wives, sons, and daughters. Coupled with the same number of musicians, tickets are often in short supply, and they are basically full every time.
Of course, for a large part of the aristocratic side branch, this kind of fullness is very good. Otherwise, it will be a major cause of bankruptcy for them to spend a quintal to go to a concert every week. They only need to communicate or meet their favorite musicians. At that time, they would come to the Sacred Hall early to make a reservation.
Therefore, for a concert in the Holy Wings Hall, the ticket income is 365 quintals. This is a very large number. This is the income of Victor for the past four years. Between 300 and 500 quintals.
According to the regulations of the Musicians 'Association, 40% of the ticket income is donated to the church, 30% is used for the operation of the Musicians' Association and the maintenance of the chanting hall, and the remaining 30%, about 111 Ten Quintals will be owned by the musicians, and the band's cost will be paid from this 30%, so Victor's last Quintals will be between sixty and seventy Quintals, which is equivalent to His income for more than half a year can be seen from the huge profits of the concert in the Chancellor.
Victor said that half of Lucien, that is, Lucien will get thirty to thirty-five Kintals. This is a wealth that ordinary civilians can save for decades, even a lifetime, which is equivalent to the civilian area of the Purple Lily District. A beautiful three-story building is equivalent to an ordinary, old-fashioned two-story villa with a small garden in the Jisu District, a neighbourhood of musicians.
This can also be seen in the cost of magic experiments.
"I can't refuse, thank you, Mr. Victor." Lucian answered frankly, there seemed to be that lovely coin shining with Huang Chengcheng's light, and more than thirty Kintals meant that he could buy thirty The moonlight rose powder can be rented in Jisu District for two or three years. The only problem is that moonlight rose is not something you can buy.
This is not that Lucian wants to leave the slums so quickly, but that his status and status has prevented him from staying in Adjeong. It will make people wonder what he is hiding, and his identity as a professor has always been Appearing in Adejeang, leaving early can also ensure safety. Besides, the villa can better build a magic laboratory without being discovered, such as under the quiet room for creating music.
Of course, Lucian is also a normal person who seeks a better and more comfortable life.
After celebrating the success of the concert, just as Felice was preparing to invite everyone to her manor to enjoy the rural scenery of the "Harvest Moon", a middle-aged woman in a long black dress walked in. It was Princess Natasha. The powerful sky knight around.
"Ms. Camille." Felix, Lot, and Herodotus, and other noble children who had seen her far away and heard her deeds, hurriedly saluted.
When Victor and Lucien saw this, they followed the gentleman's etiquette.
Camille's seriousness ruined her beauty and dignity, with no expression: "Mr. Evans, Her Royal Highness wants to ask you to be her music consultant, go to Lata summer palace twice a week to discuss music issues with her for about an hour .You will be well paid. "
This sentence made musicians, Felice, Lot, Herodotus, and even Victor unable to help showing envious expressions, although Aalto's musicians are not difficult to become the music of earl, grand duke, or king in other countries. Advisor, chief court musician, etc., but here is Aalto.
Only Rhein's eyes suddenly darkened.
Lucien did not expect that it was just a piece of work, and he would encounter such a thing. He subconsciously refused: "I have only studied music for three months. This work is just an accumulated inspiration burst I am afraid I cannot Serves as Her Majesty's Music Advisor. "
Go to the Lata summer palace protected by various magical formations. Although there will be no strict inspection, Natasha is a fifth-level knight, and this lady Camille who rarely leaves her is a sky knight. If you are negligent when you get along with them, you will probably be found as a magician.
But the status of Her Majesty's Music Consultant is also very attractive, a perfect cover up, and twice a week, only one hour at a time, if you focus on music, it is not difficult to spend.
Balussian's refusal made Lott and others look disappointed and surprised.
Camille's expression did not change: "His Royal Highness doesn't mind. What she sees is the techniques you use in the music that are not affected by past music trends and the experience of writing theme music. Will you, Mr. Evans? "
Seeing other people's eyes, Lucian knew that it would be very strange for him to refuse without proper excuses, so he nodded: "It's an honor to work for Her Royal Highness."
"Thank you very much for your cooperation, Mr. Evans, you will be paid two Quintals each month." Camille quit.
This is really a generous reward. Lucien has risen from ten silver narres a month to 25 silver narres an hour. At least before becoming a formal magician, Lucian need not worry about most of the materials. Expenses.
And in this way, Lucian has really become a high-ranking social person with status and status.
"It's jealous, Lucian," Philise and Lott congratulated with complex expressions and honesty.
Victor also cast a look of comfort and satisfaction.
