"Langley, you know, this is your moment."
Justin Timberlake is smiling at the Langley hall standing in front of him. His eyes are full of sincerity and sincerity, and then he doesn't need to speak too much. The deafening sound in the whole Madison Square Garden is the best evidence. It is like the roar of a waterfall, surging from all directions.
To be honest, Justin is a little jealous.
As an actor whose job is to be a singer, Justin knows better than anyone how rare and crazy the thunderous sound of encore is. Even if the singer's solo concert gathers his own fans, he may not be able to enjoy such treatment; Not to mention a makeshift concert, and it's free.
This is really incredible.
At the beginning, when he just entered the "drunken folk" drama group, Justin more or less had a different meaning in his heart, trying to prove that he was the most famous and popular one in the whole drama group; But this idea soon cut off, because there is no comparability between the two people, lanli's professional and investment is absolutely unparalleled.
What's more, lanli didn't care about his secret competition, which made his intention and care become ridiculous. The frustration is hard to describe and can only comfort himself
It's the crew, it's lanli's territory, it's an away game. He needs to go back to his home court. When he stands on the stage, the situation will be different. His performance skill of 20 years can't be underestimated. He can easily control the whole field and firmly grasp the advantage in his own hands. So confident!
Tonight, Justin changed his mind again.
It's not that his performance is not good enough, nor that his control is not in place, nor that his popularity is not top-notch; Only when lanli stands on the stage, it seems that he is destined to become the focus of attention. His unique temperament gives lanli a distinctive taste in every performance. As a professional, Justin naturally knows better.
Now, the whole show is over, and the audience is still calling for the entrance of blue rite.
Of course, Justin can comfort himself. It's just the gap between popularity and popularity. The box office of "gravity" is setting a record, and the appeal of lanli is not small; But Justin is not willing to deceive himself. Admitting others' excellence is also an important step in self-improvement.
What's more, there's no battle between winning and losing in stage performance, right?
Instead of making excuses for his surrender, Justin finally understood how lanli felt. Before, in the "drunken folk" group, lanli showed a state of being aloof from the world and devoted himself to the performing world, not because he didn't care about winning or losing, but because there was no so-called winning or losing in the art field——
When an artist begins to care about winning or losing, he is the loser.
Justin looked at Langley sincerely and said again, "you have to be on the stage, otherwise I strongly doubt that the audience will tear down the stage."
The ridicule made Lan Li dumbfounded. He can feel vaguely that Justin has changed a little, which can't be described accurately with words. After all, they are not familiar with each other, and many emotional details can't be described in detail; But change does exist, which is a good thing.
"I'm sorry, I need to go out to meet my cheers." Lan Li gently picked an eyebrow and said solemnly, then you can hear everyone laughing.
If Langley didn't say that, it would be strange for everyone. Just like the stage in the west end of London, shouldn't the whole cast come to the stage together at the end of the curtain call? Only when the whole crew stands on the stage can the protagonists step forward to receive cheers.
But now lanli said it in a relaxed and funny way, and the little wonderful feeling disappeared.
Langley turned and stepped onto the stage again.
Similarly, there was no special special effect, so lanli appeared again in front of the audience, standing under the bright spotlight; But instead of sitting down in a hurry, he closed his eyes and listened to the sound quietly, just like a drumstick on his chest. Then his heart began to strike strongly, once and again.
"Encore! Encore! Encore
The thunderous sound came one after another, because it was too fierce and too hot, so that the feet were almost unsteady. Then the muscles of the whole body were subconsciously tense, firmly standing in the same place, raising their heads and swaggering to meet the Encore storm.
So noisy, but so peaceful.
In the storm, Langley caught a trace of his own peace, and the whole world became quiet. He could even catch the rhythm of the sound wave and heart beat, hitting his chest heavily and heavily. Then he became Levine Davies again, standing on the stage, and found his own direction and motivation to move forward——
Not the cries, but the enthusiasm and firmness hidden behind them. Once upon a time, Levine's partner Michael also had this passion and persistence, but he lost it in the long road; Now, Levine feels Michael's weight and temperature above the heart again, and life becomes bearable.
Langley thought of Rooney Marla.
Before the concert, Rooney sent a text message that said, "so we arrived, a lonely place that we couldn't go back. But now on this lonely land, you are no longer alone
Tonight, Rooney is sitting in the garden of Madison Square, becoming an ordinary member of the 20000 audience. Just like the concert two years ago, she quietly enjoys the beauty and moving of the concert with the audience's attitude, and follows Langley into the lonely place with Don Quixote's attitude. She indulges herself for her dream.
She always knew.
Lanli just stood there for a long time. At this moment, Rooney's message came back to her mind again. She could not find the way back or the way forward in this vast and cold lonely land. But now more and more people are gathering, just like Don Quixote, chasing an illusory fantasy and acting like a lunatic.
Such a scene is really too wonderful, too moving and intoxicating.
Gradually, gradually, ankesheng finally calmed down, but the heat wave was still surging in the air. The whole scene was dark, only the spotlight in the middle of the stage was left, and Lan Li's figure was shrouded in solitude. The boundless darkness made people have the illusion that "he was the only one left in the world".
Justin, ED and others are also back on the side stage, quietly enjoying Langley's encore performance.
Lan Li finally sat down, picked up his guitar, slightly folded his jaw, bright light through the messy hair and thick eyelashes, caught the smile at the corner of his mouth, so the world became bright.
"Just backstage, Justin and ED and I were chatting. Maybe we can hold a music festival together to provide a stage for folk singers from all over the world to perform. It's not easy. More importantly, we're not sure how many viewers are willing to come. "
Lanli is serious. They were discussing it backstage.
"But when Robert Redford founded the Sundance Film Festival, he didn't know that Sundance could become an independent film Mecca in the United States. He just insisted on a belief and then did it. What if it fails? Then he failed. At least he did his best for his dream. "
"Folk Music Festival, is it possible to have a try? I think, maybe we still need to embrace a little hope and a little confidence, even if it is unrealistic, otherwise, everything in life can be foreseen, how boring and boring it will be, don't you think? "
Lan Li just sat on the chair and spoke quietly, with a faint smile in his voice. You can hear his lightness and joy, which makes every audience's mouth rise.
"But... They said that I was given the task, and I protested strongly. God knows how clumsy, lazy and forgetful I am. I'm absolutely not suitable for such an organization. My fans can't understand it any more. I haven't seen any trace of my second album so far. "
The self - Tucao of blue Li make complaints about the whole group.
After a pause, lanli's smile became more and more brilliant, and his eyes hidden his emotion in the shadow. "Moreover, I still owe someone an encore until now."
someone.
Is it
Lan Li gently pulled the corners of his mouth, trying to say more, but found that thousands of words have become pale and powerless, language seems to be unable to express the true thoughts of the heart, let alone all the thoughts.
Two years ago, on this stage, she was looking forward to an encore, waiting for an encore - an encore exclusively for her, but he refused to honor it because he hoped that she would stand on the stage, complete the Encore and realize the dream; Unfortunately, she didn't make it.
Later, standing on the stage of Grammy, he finished the encore, but she never heard of it; After all, the Grammy stage is not Madison Square Garden. He thought he would never have a chance to stand here again, but he didn't expect that he would get the chance to walk around, even though two years passed quickly.
Time went by and now he was finally ready. He is going to finish this Encore tonight. Encore, who is two years late, still hopes to finish the concert for only one person.
