In many large shopping malls in Asia, the same English word "restroom" is used in the rest room and bathroom, but in fact, this is not accurate, because according to the English culture and customs, the rest room and bathroom are two different things, and the language itself has strict differences, with different functions and functions.
The rest room is a larger concept, which includes the toilet and rest space. Entering it, you can see a small well-equipped rest space, including sofa, tea table and dressing table. If it is a high-grade place, it will even be equipped with basic cosmetics suits of high-grade brands, in case of special circumstances, the cosmetics carried by customers are not complete.
The rest space is specially used for rest adjustment. Women can make up, men can adjust their clothes, and they can chat and relax occasionally; After going in again, it's the bathroom.
In other words, the concept of rest room and toilet is different after all.
The rest room of Lincoln Center is a complete set. For the present Langley and Rooney, this is undoubtedly a very necessary space.
At this moment, Langley and Rooney are taking care of themselves. Before the opening of the performance, they arrive at the scene in time to join the members of the "pop drummer" crew to enjoy tonight's jazz concert; But beyond Lincoln Center, the world has turned upside down - at least in the making.
Originally, it was just a small event. Although it was a bit unexpected for Manhattan, it was not a major malicious event after all; But now it's fermenting rapidly because of the existence of Langley and Rooney, and spreading widely and rapidly on the social network with an extremely rapid attitude——
Now in 2013, in the center of Manhattan, in broad daylight, there are a lot of onlookers. Under such circumstances, the rapid spread of the incident is beyond doubt. Any one of them is worthy of serious discussion. Now that they collide with each other, they are even more boisterous.
But the problem now is that Langley and Rooney seem to disappear, and no one can find them.
……
"No, I still don't quite understand. Do you mean that besides rhythm, voice part, cohesion and other skills, the command gesture has other functions? You can explain it in more detail. What is emotion? What is reading? God, I can understand all these words, but why don't I understand any of them now? " J-k-simmons looked at Langley in bewilderment.
Instead of rushing to explain immediately, Langley thought about it seriously and illustrated it with a more vivid example, "for the same song or the same movie, each audience's feelings are different, can you understand?"
Simmons nodded. "Some people can cry when they watch comedy movies; And some people can laugh when they look at tragic works. "
"Yes, this difference does not come from comedy and tragedy itself, but from everyone's life and experience, which makes us have different emotions and interpretations of things." For example, Chopin, for many people, is passionate, but for some people, he is sad and poetic
"At the concert, every conductor has a different understanding of music.
Perhaps, today's conductor wants to be more emotional and full-bodied, so when performing, he needs the performer's emotion to be more intense. Piano, trumpet, saxophone, long pipe and so on, the emotion of these musical instruments will be more released to set off that emotion.
But maybe, today the conductor wants to show the different styles of the piece, so he emphasizes that the violin performance needs to be more melodious. In the process of conducting, he may change the cohesion of the beat, read and interpret the music score differently, and show it through the members of the orchestra.
So, although the performers are performing on the stage, it is the conductor who has made great achievements. As a top conductor, he can endow music with the soul of his own understanding and reading. Some are similar to the role of a director. "
He told the story freely and explained it, and finally added, "it's the same with jazz."
Then, Langley noticed Simmons, who was lost in thought. He didn't continue to speak, but kept silent.
In the words just now, there is a huge amount of information. Lanli has tried his best to use a more understandable, simple and intuitive way to complete the explanation. However, for people who have never been in touch with or deeply understood the relevant knowledge, it still needs time to digest and understand. More importantly, they need to settle down slowly.
Why, as the saying goes, it's hard to draw a tiger's skin but a bone?
The reason is that the change of inner temperament can not be achieved overnight, it needs a long time of precipitation and polishing; It's not easy, but after it's really formed, it's able to complete the transformation, changing a person's face and sense from the inside out.
Damien chazere, standing nearby, is chatting with Rooney Mara and Justin hewitz. Both Damien and Justin are middle-class people who have a good understanding of jazz, concerts and so on. Otherwise, Damien would not want to shoot the "pop drummer".
Melissa bainoist is a little embarrassed, out of place, for such occasions or not adapt.
At this time, they are still in the Lincoln Center, the jazz concert enters the half-time stage, after the 15 minute break adjustment time, they will return to the David Geffen hall again to enjoy the second half performance.
Simmons has a strong interest in directing, because Fletcher is a conductor in the film.
In Damien's play, there is not much emphasis on conducting, but on the oppression and strictness of the conductor to the drummer. It seems that any slight mistake can't escape Fletcher's ears, which also makes the whole jazz band in a state of terror and dare not neglect.
Therefore, Simmons and Langley discussed. But obviously, it's still difficult for Simmons.
After a short wait, Langley added, "the second half is about to begin. You can pay close attention to it. Today's saxophone and trumpet are really brilliant; After going back, if you have time, you can listen to other versions, or look for other versions of the conductor on the tubing, and the whole impression will gradually become three-dimensional. "
Simmons pondered carefully, turned around, followed the crew behind, and slowly returned to the David Geffen hall; And Langley and Damien began to talk in a low voice, discussing the highlights of today's first half performance.
Lincoln Center is still peaceful, but the outside world is like boiling water, gululu, gululu.
Andy Rogers, Roy rockery and Nathan Presley are scattered around the sofa group, with seven mobile phones on the table.
At this time, all the seven mobile phones are adjusted to the silent mode, and there is no sound in the room, but the flickering light is constantly changing, just like a neon. In the quiet, a noisy and magnificent pantomime is staged, which vividly interprets the chaos of war and tsunami in the outside world, but more and more sets off the inner peace.
It's like standing hand in hand in front of the French windows of high-rise buildings at the end of "fight club", witnessing the gradual destruction of the whole world. The thrill is beyond words.
Nathan Presley was the first one who couldn't bear it. He wiggled his butt uneasily, as if a hedgehog had been stuffed on the sofa. He looked at Andy and Roy constantly, and said in disbelief, "really? Are you kidding? You just ignore it? Aren't you worried about what happened to Langley? Are you going to ignore the journalists? "
Andy shrugs. "Can you get in touch with lenley?"
Nathan is speechless.
Roy also said calmly, "do you think Langley will care?"
Nathan is speechless.
Andy patted himself on the stomach again. "It's obviously not the first time. Do you think it will be the last time?"
Nathan is still speechless.
Instead, Roy chuckled. "I think Langley must have left his cell phone in a corner now to adjust the mute. We can't find him, and the journalists can't find him. It's not a big problem
"What's more, even if we find lanli, so what?" Andy takes over the conversation. He understands the temper and personality of Langley. It's a crucial event for the media, but it doesn't mean anything to Langley. Just like the "ice bucket challenge", if Emma Watson or Angelina Jolie were replaced, they might cooperate with the United Nations or other funds to further promote it——
It's not that this kind of promotion is bad. To help charity, the more extensive the better; It's just that lanli is not interested in hype.
Roy and Andy exchanged a vision, and the two sides reached a consensus, but then they both turned their eyes: they are not friends, they are just partners.
As Roy said, Langley's cell phone, which was completely muted - not vibrated, but muted - was still in the pocket of his coat, at the check-in at the entrance. Lanli seems to have completely forgotten to confirm the mobile phone. During the intermission, everyone else can't wait to turn on the mobile phone to confirm the message, but lanli and Rooney are rare.
So, the world has been shaken, but lanli is still stable.
After the jazz concert, when Langley and a group of friends left the David Geffen hall hand in hand, they saw the noisy scene of the crowd at the gate at the first sight. Langley also cast his eyes curiously at Rooney and Damien, lowered his voice and joked, "it seems that there should be some big people in today's concert."
