One street away from his destination, Andy Rogers had to get off because the crowd on the street had occupied a small half of the lane. The traffic jam was so bad that many vehicles chose to bypass the next block. The first thought in his mind was: is there a fight after drinking?
Andy knows that Pioneer Village has never been a popular bar. Even on Friday and Saturday nights, with full seats inside and queuing outside, the crowd will not be too exaggerated. It's only more than 100 people at most. But the scene in front of him completely stunned him.
As Andy slows down, he walks towards the Pioneer Village. From a distance, he can see that at least 50 or 60 people are gathered at the door. The inside three floors and the outside three floors are blocking the door. However, they are not making trouble. They just keep jumping, shouting, laughing and screaming in the same place. The scene doesn't look like making trouble at all, It's more like... Concert or party night.
The whole door was blocked tightly. Looking left and right, he couldn't find any gap at all. Then he looked down to see his body, so Andy stood beside him and waited for the crowd to disperse slowly. In his mind, he was thinking about whether he should change the wine.
This afternoon and evening, he finished three meetings, and each meeting was extremely important, consuming countless brain cells. He needed a glass of beer to relax. Compared with Los Angeles, New York's nightlife is undoubtedly richer, but unfortunately, Andy's familiarity with New York is limited, so Pioneer Village naturally becomes the first choice. Did not expect, but met such a noisy night.
If you give up the Pioneer Village, is there any other suitable choice for the neighborhood?
Andy is thinking, and then saw a figure in the crowd was squeezed out, staggering two steps, almost straight into the street. Andy's habitual smile rose a little and joked, "it seems that tonight's harvest is not so good. Now in New York, it's not easy to have a beer. "
The figure, who was about to fall down, stood firm, followed the voice, and then stood up straight with composure. He didn't care about the embarrassment just now. He didn't even pretend to tidy up his clothes. He walked over gracefully, stood firm beside Andy, turned around and leaned against the wall, like he couldn't straighten his waist, "Nathan called you just now?"
In front of you is Roy rockery.
Andy's brow frowned at this. Roy didn't catch such a small expression, but he didn't hear Andy's reply. He looked up and glanced up, and his tone rose slightly. "You didn't come here for Randy? So what are you doing here? "
"Do you need any special reason to come to the bar on Saturday night?" Andy smiles casually, and then looks at the surging crowd next to him again. At this time, he reacts, "you mean, these people are all here for the sake of Lan Li?"
"Yes." Roy didn't sell off, and he gave a clear affirmation, "I just got the news and came here specially. I just know that Langley has come back to New York. Look at your expression, you just know now? " Roy and Andy exchanged a sight and couldn't help laughing.
His family's actors, the whereabouts of enigmas, agents and managers are completely unknown, and even until the fans and fans have been besieged, it's too late. It sounds incredible, but it's happening. Roy and Andy smile with a trace of helplessness.
Roy and Nathan just got to know the basic situation by phone. At this time, long Qumai told Andy concisely, "so you say, is this a good thing?"
"It's a good thing, apart from the two of us who have been kept in the dark." Andy did not forget to laugh at himself when he spoke, which made Roy smile. "I know that the media must say that Langley is making malicious hype again." Andy turned his lips, showing a trace of disdain. "But this time, let's just say it to the media. Instead of giving up the media channel, we are promoting online speech, completely following the line of independent music and independent movies, and speaking with word of mouth. Those who really like lenley music will stand up and speak; As for those who don't like it, just let them
About Don Quixote, Andy and Roy are involved in the whole process from production to release. They have a good understanding of the publicity strategy of studio 11 and Langley's attitude. Therefore, even if there is no communication, they can guess that the grand occasion of Pioneer Village tonight is an accident, but the media certainly do not think so——
They will only think that Lan Li once again took the opportunity to launch publicity and create topics; Take advantage of the trend of Toronto Film Festival to promote her album; Or through the gimmick of the album, promote the new film. What can't be ignored is the news related to the sequel of "speed and passion". Andy can even guess that some media will maliciously speculate that lanli uses these news to put pressure on Universal Pictures.
What Andy wants, naturally, the media wants.
However, Andy doesn't plan to push it like this. Universal Pictures doesn't need to use Don Quixote to put pressure on him. He has other plans; As for the "Don Quixote" album itself, Andy also respects Langley's choice, fully cooperates with studio 11's publicity, steadily wins with word of mouth, abandons the mainstream commercial market, and targets those senior professional music lovers.
Give up the positive conflict with the media and focus on Don Quixote wholeheartedly. Andy believes that the efforts and painstaking efforts of Langley and George can always be understood by someone, maybe not much, but enough, and a single spark can start a prairie fire. From a long-term point of view, this is good for the professional image of lanli.
In the speaking room, the crowd at the door of the bar began to stir up, and the people inside began to walk out. After waiting patiently, the people outside began to walk in one after another. Just seeing such a scene, you can boldly describe in your mind how wonderful tonight's performance is. So many people gather at the gate and don't want to leave for a long time, just like the loyal fans waiting outside the concert hall. Even if they can't see it with their own eyes, they also hope to stand outside and integrate with all the audience.
Andy and Roy are waiting at the door, watching the crowd keep leaving. They are more and more surprised. It's hard to imagine that the small Pioneer Village has swallowed so many spectators. After waiting for nearly 20 minutes, almost all the people outside have entered, but the people inside are still coming out. It's like a bottomless hole.
After waiting for a while, the surge of the crowd finally eased down, and the two men started. Walking into the bar, you can easily see the blue Li in the center of the stage, not only because the spotlight has not been extinguished, but also easily gather your eyes in the dim room; Also because the stage next to a long line, the mighty team around the stage a circle. The goal is too clear.
When you step forward and look at it carefully, you can see that everyone has a Don Quixote album in their hands. Occasionally, you can see that a small number of people who don't have an album in their hands are holding a propaganda poster. You can see that along the path of the crowd flow, there is a big basket on the bar with a large number of rolled up posters in it. Those who forget to bring the album, those who forget to bring the album, those who forget to bring the album, those who forget to bring the album, those who forget to bring the album, those who forget to bring the album, those who forget to Or people who haven't bought an album, or just join in the fun, can get a poster for free at any time and... Sign it.
At this moment, the long line is waiting for signature. Lanli is sitting on the stage. In front of him is not a table, but a keyboard. Beside him is a guitar, which shows the trace of the end of the performance. It's so simple, but people don't care. They can't wait to step forward and hand the album or poster to Lan Li, waiting for signature and chatting happily. The scene is so lively.
Andy can't help but be stunned. Then he hears Roy asking, "has Langley ever held an autograph party?"
"No Andy shrugs. After that, looking at the scene in front of him, Andy can't help smiling.
Although "speed and passion 5" has successfully opened up its popularity, the time is still too short. So far, Langley has not really enjoyed the treatment of superstars surrounded by groups, even in Sundance or Toronto. But I didn't expect that this kind of treatment would become a reality because of the album Don Quixote. Is this an unintentional act?
"Now I finally know why everyone leaves with an orgasm on their face." Roy's joking voice came, and the two exchanged views, and they both chuckled. Now it seems that the two have begun to cultivate some tacit understanding.
"What I'm more curious about now is how wonderful the performance was." Andy only said half of what he said, but Roy understood immediately:
It can make so many audiences stay at the door, even if they can't get in, they don't want to leave; Can let so many audiences stay, just to seek a signature; Can let so many audience faces appear excited, excited look; To be able to make so many audiences cheer for an album without any promotion... There is only one answer that can explain, and that is tonight's performance.
"Maybe you can start with the CD of the album." Roy suggested that the contract for the album was his own. He not only heard the full album, but also bought two. But even so, imagination can not depict the scene of the Pioneer Village live performance.
Andy doesn't say anything, just raises his jaw in a meaningful way. In my mind, I can't help thinking of the last thing that Langley mentioned: the west end or Broadway plays. How much talent is hidden in Lan Li's body?
"Let's have a beer first." Andy looked at the turbulent crowd in front of him. There were at least 50 people in the team. "In a short time, this upsurge is estimated to be irreparable."
