Why have George and Elizabeth become the hot upstarts in the upper class of London in the past six months?
Why did Arthur and Edith start to break free and try to break out of their own way?
Why does ALF seem to be experiencing a painful period, gradually alienating from her family, calming down and starting to think?
Why has Richard's private banquet been forced to expand again and again, so that it now has more than 500 guests?
Why is it that even the west end Association of London is willing to open its arms to applause after the Oliver award?
……
Langley hall.
That's the answer! It's incredible to say, but it's true. That's the answer to all the questions.
The premise of the discussion is that it is the 21st century. After the incident of Princess Diana, the self positioning of the nobility and the social class relations are all changing; In addition, after the impact of the Internet age and the popularity of fast food culture, the economic model, lifestyle and social composition have undergone earth shaking changes, and the wheel of the times has inevitably rolled forward.
It was against this background that things happened.
To borrow a joke from Graham Norton: Langley hall will one day join Daniel Day Lewis and die alone in the magpie nest.
This is undoubtedly the best affirmation of lanli's professional level.
The Oscars, Emmys and Grammys in North America, the Berlin film stars in Europe, the British Academy Awards and Oliver awards in the British Isles, all these trophies are just embellishments. They really make people realize that the dedication and excellence of lenley is the "tragic world", which has won a lot of glory, respect and awe.
In any era, in any class, in any society, the top people in all walks of life are highly respected, and artists are no exception. It doesn't need words but works; There is no need to argue and fight with strength; There is no need to refute the fact that artists like stars can always occupy a place in the long history.
It's the same with today's blue rite.
The reason why the nobility despised the profession of actors was that actors lost their dignity by being associated with peddlers and pawns; That's because the actors are reduced to the common people, and they are condescending to take off their aura and appear in public.
But if the actors can prove themselves with strength, or even further, interpret art with strength, and break away from the ordinary ranks, and really win a place, then the nobles will also take off their hats and show respect.
The reason why tonight's private party has become so grand is the Oliver prize.
An Oliver award is not only a reward for the work of Langley, but also the recognition and acceptance of Langley by the west end of London. More importantly, it is an appreciation from the professional level, even more than the commercial Oscars, which has aroused thousands of waves in the upper class of London.
It is no exaggeration to say that the present blue rite is the most popular existence among the aristocrats.
The background of hereditary aristocracy ensures that they are equal and don't have to worry about the vulgarity of etiquette and money; Their outstanding professional skills ensure their admiration and express their respect like the art of communication.
Like Lawrence Oliver, even the queen shows her respect.
So when Langley showed up, the whole party was boiling. No one can be an exception.
"Congratulations on the Oliver prize."
"On the anniversary show, are you sure you won't go on stage? Oh, that's a pity. "
"I got to know John cod last time. He's planning a new project now. Are you interested?"
"I've heard that you're going to set up a foundation in London to help independent actors go to college. Is that true?"
"It's my pleasure to meet the famous Mr. Langley."
"God, you are younger than I thought. Please forgive me for my impoliteness. After watching les miserables, I always thought you should be 60 years old. "
"I read an article not long ago, and Judy Dench really wanted to work with you on the west side. I agree with that."
"Welcome. No wonder I said that the night was very beautiful tonight, and now I finally found a reason. "
"I'm sorry, please forgive my recklessness, but I have to say that I personally like your performance in detached, even more than miserable world."
"Now I finally understand why women are always crazy about you. To be honest, even I'm a little excited now. "
An endless stream of voices continued to ring in my ears. In less than 30 meters, lanli's steps had stopped more than 40 times. After walking from the hall to the garden for 45 minutes, he still didn't finish. It was as if all the people of the whole banquet had flocked.
Such a scene is reminiscent of the scene when the queen bee arrived.
……
Richard, who was always on the side, carefully observed lanli's expression and manner. Even in the face of such a crazy and hot wave, lanli still had no impatience and irritability. The elegant, calm, elegant and leisurely manners ran through the whole process, and the humor and humor in the conversation left a deep impression, That's enough to make people look up.
It can be imagined that after today's banquet, lanli's reputation among the nobles will surely go up to a higher level.
Every act and every move at leisure will make complaints about the "Titanic". After that, the pressure will be overwhelming.
On the other hand, the rising star is bound to become the most popular upstart among the upper class. If it was two centuries ago, then lanli has become the number one seed player of the best son-in-law of countless nobles.
When he finally came to the garden, Richard noticed that lanli turned his head and exchanged a sight with Matthew Dunlop, who was walking side by side. In an instant, there was a trace of ridicule and banter in the light and shadow. Only at this time can he catch a trace of unruly and unruly hidden in the deep, and outline the image of the rebellious young man who ran away from home and pursued his dream.
"Please forgive their fanaticism. If I remember correctly, this is the first time you've ever been to a formal party? " Richard took the initiative and said with a smile, "I mean, after being an actor."
Lan Li chuckled and made fun of his Ali. "It reminds me of the occasion when a girl attends a social party for the first time in her adult life. What I'm curious about now is, is today's performance enough to satisfy everyone? "
"Very satisfied. I can guarantee that. " Richard picked up his champagne and motioned, "I can't think of a more perfect debut. To be honest, I was a little worried. You are not suitable for such occasions. After all, there is no social comparability in Hollywood, but now it seems that I am worried too much. "
"Fortunately, I invited Matthew to attend, and he really blocked a lot of hidden arrows." Lanli said with a smile.
But Matthew, standing by, did not make complaints about his face. "Please don't believe his mask." In fact, Arthur never had the upper hand in the fight with Langley; In addition, Andre is also lanli's follower. When we are together, the focus is always lanli, without exception. "
"The Hamiltons?" Richard recalled for a moment, raised a question, and got Matthew's positive reply. He also showed a meaningful smile, "it seems that we know too little about you."
"That's why I left London. Keep some mystery until it's broken down. " Make complaints about the neither fast nor slow, but not because of Matthew's Tucao.
At this time, Matthew cast a line of sight. Lanli caught the deep meaning of the line of sight and looked in the direction of Matthew's eyes. Then the two exchanged a line of sight. They both showed a clear look: the battle is about to start!
Then Matthew saw a touch of indifference and self-confidence in the bottom of blue Li's eyes. He couldn't help laughing. Originally, he was still worried about Lan Li's mentality and emotions, but in fact, Lan Li had long been open-minded and didn't care about the coming battle.
For Mr. and Mrs. hall, it's a battle they can't lose; For blue, this is the end of the battle. Above the starting point, it has been doomed to a different fate and outcome.
Not far away, the hall couple, the Duchess of Cambridge, and——
"Hey, Lord Langley." Beatrice stepped forward two steps with a little excitement, and her eyes were full of expectation. Her eyes couldn't move away, but then she realized her gaffe and stopped. However, she did a formal greeting.
"Princess." Lanli also responded with perfect etiquette, "good evening. The ladies of the evening are obviously going to be eclipsed, but it should be a good thing for the count
Quietly, blue Li sent a praise, which let Beatrice's cheek fly two red halos, timidly glanced at blue Li, and then showed a big smile, "thank you." A touch of sweet blooming in the tip of the tongue, "however, I am not the protagonist tonight, I hope I did not steal other people's style."
When talking, Beatrice's eyes still fell on Lan Li's body.
Langley nodded again with a smile, and the corners of his mouth rose lightly. "I hope you're talking to the Duke of Cambridge, otherwise it's too impolite."
A joke, the topic naturally shifted to the back of William and Kate, at the same time, everyone has chuckled.
William also took over the topic, said with a smile, "I can forgive Beatrice's impoliteness, because I've been used to it for a long time."
