    He can have the best management in the world but as Silvia Marcovici said, the gods will have to smile on him or its all over. Contrary to what Isaac Stern said, even the very best talent faces obstacles too great to overcome. Best of luck to Ziyu.

    Hypocrite lecteur, mon semblable, mon frère!

  • Hanna Nahan says:

    So, either agencies are stupid and slow not to sign winners of competitions, or, as repeated ad nauseam in your other well-meaning posts, competitions are riddled with corruption and never produce winners who deserve to be signed by agencies. Which shall it be, dear Norman?
