Chapter 393
C393 – Dean Shen
This middle-aged woman was far from ordinary.
She was a renowned master of musical instruments, well-known throughout the imperial court.
In her twenties, she had already been representing her country on international stages.
Her list of awards was extensive.
She had mastered a wide array of famous instruments, both domestic and international.
Furthermore, her artistic prowess was exceptional, placing her in the realm of a national treasure.
She also served as the dean of a prestigious art academy, nurturing many lead musicians.
Notably, a few years ago, when a famous director remade the Three Kingdoms series, many were skeptical, believing it couldn’t match the original.
But it wasn’t long before viewers recognized the brilliance of the new series’ soundtrack.
Particularly memorable was the scene where Zhuge Liang’s zither playing repelled Sima Yi’s forces.
Many viewers came away praising the music, elevating the new Three Kingdoms to a status rivaling the original.
One could only imagine the depth of her musical expertise.
On this occasion, she was visiting Eastsea on business and decided to stop by the local orchestra.
The security guard was leisurely sipping tea at the entrance when he was startled by a sudden commotion of footsteps.
Blinking in surprise, he was taken aback.
The person at the center of the commotion seemed familiar.
As someone who recognized a few celebrities in the music world, he knew he was in the presence of a music master from the imperial court.
After scrutinizing for a moment, recognition dawned on him.
It was the imperial court’s esteemed musical instrument master!
“Ms. Shen, there’s an international music conference next month. Will you be attending?”
“Ms. Shen, we’ve heard about your Grammy nomination. What are your thoughts?”
Reporters swarmed her, buzzing with questions.
Shen Dan, however, paid them no mind.
She spotted the bewildered security guard with glasses and approached him with a warm smile.
”Hello, is this the Eastsea Orchestra?”
Shen Dan inquired cheerfully.
“Yes!”
The security guard nodded eagerly in response.
He was well aware that Dean Shen commanded an appearance fee in the millions.
“Are they inside?”
Shen Dan continued.
She had made a spur-of-the-moment decision to come here.
She hadn’t notified the Eastsea Orchestra of her plans.
Truthfully, even if she had tried to call, Manager Liu wouldn’t have answered.
His phone was currently switched off.
In fact, everyone in the orchestra had their phones off at Su Ming’s place.
They were joyfully playing music for sheep and loaches.
“Dean Shen, they’ve gone out,” the security guard said hastily.
Shen Dan nodded. “Have they gone out for a performance?”
The guard seemed taken aback.
He was unaware that Su Ming’s property had been converted.
Manager Liu himself had only just been informed.
“Possibly,” the guard said, blinking.
Shen Dan was taken aback.
The guard noticed the confusion in her eyes and offered a brief explanation of the situation.
Once he finished, Shen Dan’s expression grew stern.
Her brow furrowed, and she was visibly upset.
“The Eastsea Orchestra is playing for pigs?” she asked incredulously.
”Please, don’t be upset, Dean Shen. He paid a substantial amount,” the guard replied earnestly.
If Manager Liu heard this, he would be incensed.
He would surely fire the security guard on the spot.
Shen Dan was livid.
“Music was created by humans.”
“It’s meant for human understanding.”
“And yet, the Eastsea Orchestra is performing for pigs.”
Her anger was palpable.
The reporters behind her fell silent.
No one dared to utter a word.
It was not unusual for orchestras to perform for money.
But for the Eastsea Orchestra to play for pigs was unheard of!
Now that Dean Shen was aware, the future of their orchestra was in jeopardy.
“Where are they? Lead me to them!” Shen Dan demanded, her frown deepening.
Realizing his mistake, the guard quickly tried to mitigate the situation.
“Don’t be upset, Dean Shen,” he said. “This isn’t their first time there; they frequent that place.”
