"Sorry, there seems to be a misunderstanding." Lan Li put the keyboard aside, stood up and apologized to the owner of the street performance stall.
Ed Sheeran didn't seem to react. He looked at lanli. After three beats, he exclaimed, "lanli hall? Jesus - damn Christ. " Ed covered his mouth and his eyes were incredible. He stepped back two steps and scolded a few rude words. But then he realized that he was a bit impolite and walked forward quickly. "I really like your music. No, I mean, it doesn't matter. It's my honor to be able to play with you; No, I mean, "Cleopatra" is wonderful. It gives me the motivation to create again; No, no, I mean, I'm sorry I didn't recognize you just now... "
Ed was speechless, talking out of breath. Then he looked at Langley breathlessly. "I look like a madman, don't I?"
Lanli was immediately amused, "crazy? no nervous? Yes His answer made ed howl with chagrin, and he lowered his head and began to self-examine, "do you like my music? If I heard right now, should I be proud now? "
"Ha ha." Ed laughed happily. "Sure, sure! Not only Cleopatra, but also Ophelia, Jesus Christ Ed covered his cheek with both hands. "I'm an idiot, absolutely an idiot." The style and lyrics of Ophelia are totally the same as Cleopatra. I didn't realize it. God, I look like a complete idiot now! I should have recognized you earlier. I mean, the lyrics of Cleopatra give me so much inspiration, I really like this song crazily... Wait, did we just play Cleopatra together? "
Ed's thoughts were jumping. Blue Li nodded with a smile. "That's why I stopped. Otherwise, what do you think?" But ed didn't recognize the tone of ridicule. Instead, he began to circle around like an ant on a hot pot. From time to time, he looked up at Lan Li and patted his forehead, looking annoyed.
"Are you going to keep going around here? Or are we going to make a good count of our income just now? " Lan Li pointed to a third of the piano box in front of him and picked his eyebrows.
"Of course, of course." Ed finally stopped. Suddenly he remembered something and held out his right hand. "Ed Sheeran, I'm sorry. I'm introducing myself now."
"Nice to meet you, ed." Lenley shook hands friendly. "You think you're a great singer, not polite."
That's the truth. In the last life, Langley loved Ed's music very much, from his first album when his native place was unknown to his latest album when he was born again. Ed's albums are highly completed, mainly in ballads and pop. He is not a singer with outstanding singing skills - in fact, many of his scenes have been involved in traffic accidents, but his lyrics are very beautiful, which can often inject moving emotions into songs and easily move every audience.
However, ed thought that Langley was just being polite, but even so, he still wanted to scream, and finally clenched his fist to avoid losing control, "God, God, God!" He couldn't believe that he was talking to lenley, and lenley praised him. What's more, they just finished the performance together. "Thank you, this sentence really means a lot to me."
Although Langley has only one "Cleopatra", not to mention that he has been famous for a long time, he is not even an independent singer. He may only be a cross-border person who makes an occasional guest appearance. After all, Langley is now an actor, but this does not affect ed's love for Langley.
It's not just music, it's the hidden life attitude of the lyrics, and the real life style of Langley. The modern Bard's attitude is exactly what ed yearns for. "You remind me of Don Quixote, I mean, the meaning of praise." Ed felt that his brain was in a mess. He couldn't completely state his usual innumerable ideas.
"Ha ha, Don Quixote." Lan Li chewed it seriously. "To tell you the truth, I definitely think it's a compliment."
It's not about music, it's about performance. Everyone didn't think he could do it. Everyone stood on the opposite side of him, but he went on this road without hesitation, just like Don Quixote fighting against the windmill giant alone.
"Listen to your accent, shouldn't you pursue your music career in London? How did you get to Los Angeles? " Lanli is very sensitive to his accent. He couldn't hear it in his last life. Now he can feel the Yorkshire flavor in ED's accent. What's more, Langley is really curious. Isn't ed from England? The "the-a-team" was a hit on the British pop charts.
Ed shrugged. "London, you know, is too classy. I stayed there for a year and got nothing." Naturally, ED can also hear Langley's London voice. As ed said, the whole British art world is very strict. Of course, there are cases of grass-roots transformation into stars, especially after the appearance of talent shows such as "x factor" and "talent show", but on the whole, they are still very few“ So I wanted to come to Los Angeles and try my luck. " Ed cautiously pointed to blue, "just like you."
The reasons why Langley and ED came to the United States are not the same, but there is no need to explain so much. It can be said that they have the same goal by different routes. "So what's the luck?"
"Hoo..." ed let out a long breath, "I've been here in April, and now I'm doing opening shows in various bars, but... I'm still looking for my own opportunities."
Although he didn't mention too much, lanli could feel the helplessness in the words, which reminded him of those independent artists in the Pioneer Village, "if you have time, welcome to New York." Lanli searched his pocket and realized that in order to attend the award ceremony, he had nothing on him, only six dollars and a cent left. Just after buying the change of the hamburger, let alone his business card, "Pioneer Village, in Greenwich Village, where I work, I have performances every night..."
"Yes, I know it." Ed said, sensing the line of sight of Langley's inquiry, he quickly explained, "I watched the video on your tubing, and then did some research." This is also one of the important reasons why he likes Langley best. He stripped off the commercial attribute and just sang in the Pioneer Village. The unruly, arrogant and freedom hidden in his blood were reflected in the lyrics of "Cleopatra", which completely outlined the image of Langley in ED's mind - the image he worshiped.
What ed didn't say is that he always wanted to go to the Pioneer Village, not only because of Langley, but also because it was really a stage that countless independent singers were eager to see. However, he was short of money and didn't have enough funds to travel across the United States to New York.
"You're always welcome to Pioneer Village, er... I'll be back in late September." At first, Langley wanted to say that he would go back tomorrow, but then he thought about the Toronto Film Festival and the triliuride Film Festival, so he said, "after that, if there is no accident, I should be there."
Ed wanted to be a little calm, but the big smile betrayed his true feelings. "OK, I mean, OK, perfect, absolutely, definitely." Before his further nonsense, ed quickly changed the topic, "we should count the harvest tonight. I'm not sure I said no, but tonight, it's my pleasure to be able to play with you. "
"The honor is mine." Lan Li said sincerely.
Stampede in the heart is not a Tucao, but it is Losangeles. A brick can make complaints about two stars or stars in the future. As the entertainment center of the world, all the people who embrace their dreams are like the wave coming to this city. You can feel the breath of "star dream" - or "American Dream" in the street. Impetuous, naked, direct, no cover up.
By contrast, Langley prefers New York.
"Lan Li?" A voice called out timidly. Lanli looked up and saw three young people standing in front of him. They looked like high school students. He recognized these faces - they just appeared in the dancing crowd.
Without waiting for lanli to ask, the two boys opened the banner in their hands, which read, "lanli hall, the best actor in my mind!"
Suddenly unable to defend the ground, Lan Li was stunned. Although many people can recognize him now, they can even call out his name; Although he has won the Emmy trophy tonight, it proves that he has knocked on the door of Hollywood; Although it has been more than a year since he became an actor from "the Pacific War" to "buried alive"... Today, tonight, at this moment, he is the first time to really see his fans and help himself.
The sense of reality mixed with falsehood hit the heart hard. He opened his mouth, but found that the words were pale and terrible, even more turbulent than when Tina Fei announced the winner, and all the voices were stuck in his throat.
"Langley, your performance in the show is really wonderful! You are a born actor! Not only because of your wonderful performance, but also because of your efforts to study the performance. I really like you so much! No, to be exact, I really admire you! Will you keep on, please
Hope found that the draft prepared in her mind could not be used at this time. When she looked through Vanity Fair, she saw that Lamy, James and other actors were full of praise for lenley, and mentioned the hardships and difficulties in the shooting process. This is the reason why she became a fan. She wrote a special manuscript to record all the words she wanted to express in her heart, but tonight, she couldn't remember at all.
"Lan Li! You were born for an actor Hope raised his voice and yelled, his slightly trembling voice betraying his inner excitement.
