When lanli's figure appeared in the hall of Venice International Airport, the whole space was boiling, the turbulent heat wave rolled in, the salty water moisture and sticky summer heat came, and every corner of the line of sight was full of people, dense and bustling, and the originally not spacious hall was even more congested now, It seems that we can't even find a place to stay.
The dazzling and hot flash is surging like a silver waterfall, and the whole world is immersed in light and shadow.
Compared with Cannes in May and Berlin last year, Venice welcomed the arrival of blue rite in the highest standard way.
Although this year's Venice Film Festival is really full of stars, Xavier Dolan, a talented Canadian director, Scarlett Johnson, who has gradually turned to commercial films in recent years but still has a strong appeal in the art field, James Franco, who directed three films in one year, Hayao Miyazaki, a Japanese animation master, and so on, They all gathered in this year's water city to participate in the main competition unit.
But lanli is still unique, no one can compare with him, literally, none. Of course, even in the world, there are only a few actors who can reach the blue rite level now, not only in Venice, but also in Cannes four months ago.
According to statistics, at least 800 reporters gathered at the airport, which is still the number in the reception hall. Some reporters arrived in Venice on the same flight or similar flights, and started tracking and shooting from the inside of the airport. The media from all over the world gathered together just to take pictures of the landing and entry of lanli.
As all journalists know, the space of Venice International Airport is really limited. In order not to affect the normal access of other passengers and the daily access of other directors, actors and propagandists, it is impossible for journalists to complete interviews at the airport, and every actor or director visiting Venice Film Festival will not be interviewed at the airport.
But... No one can miss it, and no one wants to.
The whole scene was very chaotic. The chirping sound was like thousands of mosquitoes making noise in their ears at the same time. It was very annoying, as if the world was about to explode. But we can see that lanli was in a good mood, relaxed and comfortable, bright and light. Even wearing a pair of super large sunglasses, he covered half of his face, Still can't cover the corner of the mouth that gently rose warm smile.
Simple light gray linen shirt, simple dark blue casual trousers, light sky blue round head cloth shoes, unexpectedly with an exquisite round top woven straw hat, and a sports mechanical watch on the right wrist.
Under the cover of eight bodyguards, lanli appeared in the water city of Venice. It didn't look like he came to the film festival at all. It was more like he came for a holiday. He grasped the tail of summer and breathed the smell of sunshine in the city; However, the eight bodyguards who were well prepared destroyed the leisure and comfort, which made people a little sad.
After all, lanli didn't stay too long. Under the escort of bodyguards, he quickly left the airport. At the dock, he took a small private yacht to pick up the plane. Bathed in the flash light, he left behind a long string of white water, and there were still endless discussions and hot voices. It was the upsurge of the film festival, It seems that because of the arrival of lanli, the curtain officially opened.
Sitting by the porthole of the yacht, enjoying the scenery outside the window, the muddy water is not as clear and transparent as Cannes, but full of the rustic and noisy characteristic of Italy. People can't help unbutton their shirts, roll up their sleeves, let the wind go through their messy hair, and leave behind all the shackles of etiquette.
In a trance, lanli seemed to see himself as a young man again, as well as Matthew, Andre and Eaton. He was bathed in the humid sea breeze, just like a canary escaping from the cage, laughing wantonly. The loud voice broke the tranquility and peace in the morning of Shuicheng, and then... The whole world was alive.
This is really an interesting thing.
After the shooting of "pop drummer", the memories of Lanley Hall's life gradually become bright, just like the dusty oil painting in the corner, showing the original color and light bit by bit, but the seemingly insignificant memories gradually make the weight of the soul solid.
This is a city known as the "city of 100 islands". Scattered islands are scattered around the main island: Marco Polo International Airport in Venice is located on a small island called tessella, and the Venice International Film Festival is held on a small island called Lido, which is a distance from the main island.
In fact, Lido island is a holiday island. Even if it is not the Venice Film Festival, people are keen to come here. There are not many facilities and activities. They just enjoy the beach, the sea and the sunshine, far away from the bustle and noise of the main island, and quietly enjoy their own holiday.
The private residence of the Duke of Hamilton is located on the main island. For the aristocracy, the convenience of life, lively parties and prosperous areas are one of the important symbols of their status. Even during their holidays, enjoyment is their absolute theme.
Moreover, many hereditary nobles inherited the residence or real estate, often can be traced back to the distant historical track, once may not be the central area, but with the development of the city track, gradually to these areas as the core of the development of the present city.
The main island is undoubtedly the most noisy and prosperous part of Venice. However, Prince Hamilton's private residence has a unique geographical location.
It not only has its own private wharf and convenient transportation, but also doesn't need to worry about the crowded water traffic at all; In addition, the city buildings facing the sea and blooming in spring, facing the whole main island and facing the vast and boundless sea, can also overlook the outline of the color Island, glass island and Lido island in the distance when the weather is fine.
The crisscross canals, like cobwebs, are hard to identify. The familiar buildings and bridges make lanli lose his direction. He can't distinguish the road from the scenery. Only some fragmentary and paradoxical acquaintances fly back and forth in front of him. However, this is not strange to lanli, and it was always the case when he was on holiday in Venice before——
He could never remember the location of Duke Hamilton's private residence, and he could never tell where he was.
Lan Li couldn't help but stretch out his right hand, slightly open, catching the sticky moisture in the air, as if just arrived here, the hair has become moist.
In the distance, there was a lot of noise in the sight.
On the left side of the waterway is a row of uneven ancient buildings, which were not well planned and unified when they were first built. Some buildings are about four stories high, while others are only two stories high; Some buildings are complex and gorgeous, while others are simple and low-key; Some buildings seem to be crumbling, while others have just been renovated.
It seems to be disorderly, but it's this randomness that is the characteristic of European history.
In modern society, the planning of the top big cities is becoming more and more standardized and orderly, but it is becoming more and more uniform. Once, the history, culture and heritage of this city were all demolished and rebuilt in one go, and gradually disappeared in the long river of time. There is no difference between eastern cities and western cities.
However, European cities always stubbornly maintain their original flavor, even some confusion, but the flavor of history can be captured in every brick.
At the end of the row, you can see the outline of a domed church.
Once upon a time, it was also a church that believers often visited, but later, because of the rampant leprosy, it gradually declined. Now the main church is on Marco Polo square, and tourists come and go, making a lot of noise; But this deserted church has become a place for charitable organizations to give alms and other activities.
Looking up to the right side of the waterway, there is a vast and silent sea. Diagonally opposite, there is an island with a church on it. Facing the one on the left, it looks desolate and dilapidated.
Because after leprosy was rampant in those years, there was no effective treatment. The local government had to transport all the patients to the church on that island for centralized care and treatment, but it was isolated from the world. In the end, thousands of patients were trapped on the island, and now the church is a place of remembrance.
All these are familiar scenes of Langley, because in those years, several of them personally landed on the opposite island and explored. In the inner wall of the church, they saw a lot of messy scars, some of which were dilapidated, some of which were blurred, and some of which were still deep, outlining the scene of hell here in those years. Those memories are still vivid, naturally will not forget the surrounding scenery.
But... He's still not sure where the Duke of Hamilton's private residence is.
At this moment, a large crowd gathered on the vast water. On the right side of the open sea, you can see at least seventy-eight small boats, including speedboats, small boats, long tail oars and gondola, scattered in every corner of the sea, forming a half moon shaped encirclement, extending all the way from the right side to the left side, The whole open water became a calm inland sea.
Not only that, you can also see the continuous passing of boats at the wharf at the left building entrance. Although they are not closely arranged, they are also gathered in twos and threes, just like the onlookers on both sides of the fashion platform.
It is so lively and prosperous that it is reminiscent of the noise and madness of the carnival in February
It's just that all of us are here to welcome the arrival of lanli.
