Calm, silent, silent.
All of a sudden, the exclusive report of "Entertainment Weekly" broke all the balance and aroused all the attention. In a flash, all the eyes were converging towards "one person's concert".
People are not stupid. Even if Cornell is so sure, people have their own judgment. There are many loopholes in the whole incident
Why haven't you heard about the concert before? Why is there no publicity at all? Why is there no online ticketing system? Why didn't the news media report it at all? Why did the article mention that in order to prepare for the concert, lanli had to adjust all her work plans; What's more, all of a sudden, it's not easy to make an appointment for the concert venue. Lanli chooses to pay out of his own pocket. The reason why there is no publicity is that this is "one person's concert". There is no profit purpose, no publicity purpose, just to realize a promise.
In the article, Bradley severely denounced those reporters who distorted facts, maliciously hyped, created gimmicks, and cooked up explosive points. They not only had no professional ethics, but also had lost their bottom line driven by entertainment to death and the supremacy of interests.
As the first news media in the United States, the influence and deterrent of "New York Times" is self-evident. In less than an hour, Bradley's news report has exceeded 8 million hits, and is growing rapidly in geometric multiples. It has formed two completely different views from the exclusive report of "Entertainment Weekly" and completely ignited the hot spot.
Do you believe in entertainment weekly or the New York Times?
According to common sense, people naturally choose the "New York Times", but the special feature of this event is that the "Entertainment Weekly" has seized the exclusive headlines, and the preconceived idea has had an impact on people's thinking.
In particular, in the report, Cornell mentioned the related issues in this year's award season - the negative controversy about blue rite, which was popping up before, has now been further confirmed. Not only last year's "anti-cancer me", but also the rise of Don Quixote, the box office of "crazy love" and "anti-cancer me", the absence of Golden Globe Award and the attendance of Berlin Film Festival, all the clues seem to be patching up the truth.
So, on one side, the gathering of fragments of impression touches the real black curtain behind Hollywood; On the other side is the stereotyped image of righteous words. Perfection is still perfect and cannot be broken.
Inadvertently, people always want to challenge perfection. Therefore, the two views are confronted. On the Internet, there are two groups of supporters. They have a heated discussion. The topic is in the middle of the debate. Step by step, they have gone to the peak, taking away the spotlight of Valentine's day, Grammy and even the award season.
Unconsciously, "one person's concert" has gone from unknown to well-known. It only took less than 12 hours and 180 degrees of change, but it is impossible to judge whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.
What's more, even though "Don Quixote" has sparked many topics in the past six months, people still regard lanli as an actor. Some people don't like lanli's fickleness, some doubt lanli's carelessness, and some despise lanli's singing skills. So, is "one person's concert" a joke, a circus, or a feast, A party?
Everyone has his own judgment.
"Chicago Tribune" began to eat melon in a leisurely manner and began to make fun of it——
"Madison Square Garden in New York, as a concert resort for countless singers in the United States, with 20000 seats, seems to be small, but it is a top challenge at a time when the music market is generally depressed." How many people are willing to open their wallets and buy tickets?
Perhaps Langley hall should be wise to choose free admission. Well, at least the tramps are willing to enter the stadium to avoid the cold wave on the east coast for four hours. By the way, on February 16, the New York cold wave alarm, do you choose to stay at home and drink hot cocoa, or do you want to attend a party in the cold wind?
We'll see. "
There is no doubt about the banter between words, but in essence, we can see their point of view: they are not optimistic.
"Chicago Tribune" is not the only media that has downplayed the box office. More than 80% of the media believe that the attendance of this concert will be a disaster.
It's not only because lanli's appeal is not enough, it's not only because there are too many seats in the garden, it's not only because the publicity time is only four days - to be exact, only two days; Also because of the cold wave, and as a working day on Thursday night, all kinds of conditions are limiting the attendance of the concert.
They are not making trouble, they are reality.
However, as the "new Yorker" said, "for Langley hall, it's just a one-man concert. As long as the audience arrives at the scene, the concert will be successful; But if the audience doesn't arrive, even if the audience is full, the concert will be a failure.
This reminds us of the theme and core of Don Quixote's Album: it's a man's fight and a man's stage. At the age of 22, Langley hall is showing people his courage, his persistence and his faith. More importantly, his soul as an artist. "
As the mouthpiece of New York, the "new Yorker" unswervingly expressed its support and recognition for lenley, and even pushed lenley to a new height: artist.
But is it helpful for the concert? No one can know.
