Chapter: 1505
Her voice remained soft, as was her customary manner, yet everyone had grown accustomed to it.
The representative inquired further, "Have you ever received any awards during your studies?"
Cara was a junior to Clare, and both shared the same major.
Clare boasted two remarkable achievements: graduating from a prestigious domestic music academy and clinching the championship in the national competition regarding Ancient Zither in the youth group.
So the only thing Cara lacked was the championship if they had to compare her with Clare.
The representative couldn't help but contemplate that even if Cara had secured second or third place in any competition, he would consider her as Clare's replacement.
However, Cara merely shook her head and remarked, I have never taken part in any competitions."
The representative couldn't help but feel disappointed upon hearing this.
It was quite customary for art students to take part in competitions.
How was it possible that Cara had never entered a competition?
Did this imply that her professional skills weren't up to par, and she had never received recommendations to compete?
"Competing isn't a mandatory path for skill improvement, especially in the realm of Ancient Zither performance."
At this point, Maria interjected abruptly.
Atwood nodded in agreement and remarked, "Honestly, I've held the belief for some time now that many of the art competitions and exams in the country are frivolous. They should be stopped sooner rather than later. Nowadays, how many art students can truly focus on their studies? They seem more preoccupied with those competitions and flashy titles!"
Witnessing the alignment of their opinions once more, the representative refrained from offering any counterarguments.
Though, he reaped substantial profits from its annual competitions.
“Cara, why don't you perform a piece for us?" Maria added, “If you're up to it, I'LL speak with Yeez Entertainment and arrange for you to have a solo Ancient Zither performance."
Atwood offered an encouraging smile to Cara and said, "Go for it,
Cara, show us what you've got to prove yourself."
The band members couldn't resist whispering words of encouragement to Cara.
"Cara, give it a shot. It's a great opportunity!"
"Seize this chance, and your destiny could take a different turn!"
"Show some courage, Cara!"
Observing this, the representative didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Eventually, he advised, “Cara, consider this an opportunity to practice just as you do on your own."
