A guitar, a light, a chair, a voice.
Music returns to the purest, simplest and most simple appearance, singing with soul, communicating with thought and narrating with melody. The power to move people's hearts gives music a unique look.
Watching blue Li sitting quietly in the light with his guitar in his arms, his shirt sleeves rolled up at random, his collarless neckline drooping sloppily, his slightly messy and lazy short hair curled slightly, all of which are the posture of a down and out minstrel. However, Tom's inner desire to cooperate with him becomes more and more turbulent, Not only because of the success of lenley's audition in the afternoon, but also because of the soul hidden behind his face.
Whether it's Mark Antony in the afternoon or Cleopatra in the evening, Langley shows a distinctive temperament, showing the unknown side of these roles. His unique and profound understanding is really dazzling. As an actor, Langley showed enviable talent.
You know, lanli is only 20 years old this year.
Tom can't help but turn his head and look at his old friend again. Steven's expression is not real in the dim optical fiber. He can only vaguely recognize his dedicated and attentive attitude, immersed in the quiet but turbulent atmosphere of the bar scene. Tom believed that Steven would not miss what he could feel.
The hard and sharp touch of the strings on the fingertips was faintly jumping. Lanli lowered his eyes and quietly enjoyed the end of his creation. He wandered between the illusory and the real, and his thoughts were boiling. He liked such moments, just letting the quiet pervade and completing the communication through the rhythm, The same rhyme collides in different minds and ferments different thoughts and reactions.
Music is like this, so is performance. In this way, we can get rid of the noisy and noisy moments, always let people enjoy it, and really bring the charm of art into full play.
"Cough." Although lanli enjoyed such a moment, he broke his silence when he saw Neil's signal. "Although no one gave any response at the moment, I will take it as if you like the performance just now." One sentence made everyone laugh. The low laughter still seemed oppressive and depressing, but it was just the real expression of the appeal of lanli's music. "Now, the real owner has arrived at the scene, so I should retire to the second line. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome Jason mayez
Without warning, Jason came onto the stage with a guitar. The audience was in a bit of confusion. For a moment, they couldn't get out of the song "Cleopatra" just now. For a moment, they picked up their emotions again because of Jason's sudden arrival. After a moment's hesitation, applause began to ring, and the applause thundered.
Jason stepped onto the stage, a little stunned - such a welcome was far beyond expectation. According to the truth, he was late, and the audience was lucky without booing. As a result, they still welcomed him with such warm applause. But without waiting for Jason to think more, lanli came over and made an invitation gesture. Jason could only clean up his mind, patted lanli on the shoulder, and then quickly walked to the center of the stage to start his own performance.
Under the stage, Steven is not in the mood to appreciate Jason's performance. His confused mood makes him droop his eyes, turn his head, and then meet Tom's inquiring eyes. Even if he doesn't say a word, Steven immediately reads the meaning in Tom's eyes: lanli, it's still lanli.
His pride and self-esteem subconsciously made the same decision. He didn't like to overturn his own judgment, and he didn't like to admit his mistakes. Using Joseph mezlo to play Eugene was a decision made after the Pacific War project was decided. He was the first actor confirmed by the whole crew, but now Steven has to veto his decision.
However, Steven is not an ordinary person after all.
Although the performance just now is a musical performance, which has nothing to do with acting skills, the particularity of music shows the distinctive side of Lan Li: cheerful and sad, strong and fragile, vigorous and vicissitudes, publicity and introverted... That kind of contradictory temperament has been brought into full play and given the unique charm to the music. No doubt, Lan Li is charming, distant and elegant, which is an extremely young charm, singing songs, and withering in the first cold wind.
This reminds Steven of Eugene in the Pacific War.
At a young age of only 20 years old, he firmly believes in God, country and beauty, just like a dove firmly protected in the ivory tower. When the war broke out, his only dream was to fight for his country. For the honor of the country, the happiness of the people and the peace of the world, he threw himself into the army, But his heart's frailty restrained his steps. He watched all his other friends go to war. Even the lively faces in the TV were laughing at his cowardice and incompetence.
More than a year after the United States took part in the war, Eugene's heart was no longer an obstacle, so he could not wait to join the army and rushed to the embrace of the Pacific Ocean. But to meet him, it was an unimaginable storm, as well as the collapse and fragmentation of faith and belief. The broken soul could not even bear a little weight, struggling in the abyss of despair. Living, for him, is a kind of suffering, but also a kind of punishment.
This is the core soul of the "Pacific War" series, which tells the impact of the war on every soldier. The wounds rooted in the soul can never be healed, and even if they survive, they are still scarred. Not only for the soldiers, but also for their life after their return. Family, friends, lovers and even the whole society are paying for the war.
Eugene is the soul of the whole show. Now, in Langley, Steven saw this contradictory but pure temperament.
In the afternoon audition, Steven can use this reason to refuse Tom, but now, he can't. He can continue to refuse Tom and stick to his own opinion; But he couldn't convince himself. Because he knew that Langley was the best person for Eugene.
With a long breath, Steven gave Tom a helpless smile. "You know, it's not in the original plan." Public auditions are for casting, but not for the role of Eugene. Now, that's broken.
Although Steven didn't say it clearly, Tom understood it at once. A smile from his heart appeared in the corner of his mouth. "You should know that this is the right choice."
Steven didn't answer. Instead, he looked at Tom seriously. Seeing Tom's reddish eyes, he was slightly embarrassed. He chuckled and said, "you look like a 16-year-old girl."
"So you're the 45 year old instructor?" Tom's mouth is also merciless, directly refuted back, and then, Tom stooped to stand up, pointed to the corner of his eyes, motioned to Steven, "you'd better wipe the tears from the corner of your eyes."
"It's just a water stain!" Steven pleaded, but Tom didn't care at all. He left his position lightly, which made Steven feel really depressed. He looked up at Jason, who started to perform the first song on the stage. He rubbed his eyes hard, then stood up and followed Tom's steps toward the bar.
Back in the kitchen, lanli is being questioned by Neil and Stanley, "God, you're a genius. You're a genius! To be honest, when was this song created? " Neil's face was full of excited smile, and he talked about it, but although he asked a question, he didn't intend to wait for lanli's answer. "Listen to me, you have to share your creation. Now it's the digital age, things are not that complicated! "
Seeing lanli's intention to open his mouth and prepare to respond, Neil quickly said again, cutting off the possibility of lanli's argument. "We'll find a garage, complete the recording, register the copyright, and then register an account with songcast to upload the songs. After that, they will take over all the follow-up matters. Soon, you can go to iTunes, spotify Amazon and other platforms are available for download. Now the living space of independent musicians is gradually expanding
"Yes." Stanley also nodded his head and said, "lanli, it's 2009 now. Everything is so convenient. You just need to fill in an application form on the Internet. You don't need those complicated procedures, and you don't need to deal with large music companies. Your music can be shared online."
The two finally stopped for a while. Lenley looked at Neil and then at Stanley. "Are you all finished?" Both of them nodded, then lanli said, "music is just my hobby. I don't want to complicate things." Neil wanted to say something again, but this time, lanli raised his hand to stop him. "Besides, no one would want to download my music, and occasionally perform here to entertain everyone. That's enough."
"Who said that! When your music is online, I'll be the first to download it! " Neil can't wait to say, the bright eyes show his loyalty.
Stanley also quickly raised his right hand, "I'm the second." And then he said, "lenley, believe me, not only us, but everyone else will like it. The old guy Joshua asked me just now."
"Stanley..." lanli only had time to open his mouth, and his words were interrupted by the corridor door. The three people looked towards the door together, and then saw Tom's honest face carefully. "I'm sorry, we didn't mean to intrude." Then, Steven also showed his figure behind him. Neil and Stanley were about to dislocate their chins. They were at a loss. Even lanli showed a look of astonishment. "We came here specially to find lanli. I don't know if he is free now? Is it convenient for us to talk? "
The goal is... Langley?
