Matthew lives on the floor of Langley. Standing in front of the French window at the corner, the gorgeous night of New York City spreads out from under his feet. The gorgeous and bright light spots outline the outline of the city. It's loud and noisy, but it's extremely quiet. It's a wonderful thrill.
For a long time, Lan Li turned around and walked towards the kitchen. Looking at the hill like things in front of him, he could not help worrying; Then you can see a pool of water in front of the refrigerator and the chicken breast beside the sink. After you open the refrigerator, you can see the chicken breast full.
Lanli's eyes stopped, and he stood in front of the refrigerator, staring at the pile of chicken breast, a little distracted.
"Pop."
Lan Li didn't do anything. He closed the refrigerator again, turned around and picked up his mobile phone again. He dialed another number. After a short time, his mobile phone rang and turned to voice mail; Instead of leaving a message, he hung up the phone and redial again. After waiting for a while, the phone was finally connected, and a slightly flustered voice came from the other end.
"Lan Li?"
The unexpected situation made the corner of lanli's mouth rise slightly. "Andy, are you busy? I can call back later. "
"Lanli, I'm married and have a happy family, so I'm busy enjoying the world with Mrs. Rogers. I think it's natural. You should learn to look at the time before you make a call, otherwise, who knows." Andy did not make complaints about it.
"I'm sorry for my impoliteness." Lanli also did not sophistry, dry crisp ground admitted his mistake, "but you must admit, we have cooperated for so long, but you never invited me to your home, nor introduced your wife and children to me, this is your mistake."
"Who? Is it blue Li again On the other end of the phone came the low sound of interest, you can hear that Andy's wife doesn't like Langley.
Langley chuckled. "Please apologize to Mrs. Rogers instead of me."
Andy didn't continue to pester with Langley about these details, because he knew Langley was very difficult. "So, it's 1:00 a.m. in New York now, so you just called to tell me what happened today? You should know that the music festival is in a complete mess, right
Although lanli left the airport with Nathan as the driver, they knew where lanli was going, but they knew nothing about the specific reasons.
"Don't worry. I'll be there tomorrow afternoon. You can make a reservation, afternoon or evening." Langley didn't explain the reason, just conveyed the result.
"Are you sure? Will there be no more graduate drama this time? " Andy didn't delve into it.
Although it is a pity that lanli is absent from the official opening and the first day of the Pioneer Village Music Festival, strictly speaking, it is not a big event.
All the links of the festival are ready. They just need to open the curtain step by step. Lanli's absence will not lead to paralysis; Lanli's performance was arranged at the end of the last day to end the music festival. As long as lanli could be on stage on time, it would not be a big problem.
The main reason is that lanli's temporary turn disrupted the rhythm and deployment of the music festival, which made people unavoidably flustered and worried about whether lanli could show up on time on the third day.
In the face of Andy's jokes, blue Li chuckled, "in order not to delay your family life, I'd better make a quick decision. I'm calling to tell you... "Langley paused a little." I'm going to play 'Manchester by the sea'. " With that, Lan Li took a long breath and relaxed.
"What?" Andy was very surprised.
Because lanli is not the kind of whim "say it is a" type, at least not in the work. Since lanli has rejected the project, he will not regret it; What's the matter now?
Moreover, the time point is worth studying.
Lan Li did not hesitate, but made up his mind, "yes, you heard me right, I have made a decision."
Andy was stunned, "... Er... But as far as I know, they have started to discuss new candidates. Matt Damon seems to have recommended Kathy Affleck. I can't be sure, but I can be sure that they are really looking for new actors. Lanli, what's going on? "
Andy is more worried about Langley's condition than the Pioneer Village Music Festival or "Manchester by the sea."
"Andy, I'm fine." Lan Li chuckled. "Believe me, I'm fine now. That's the truth."
Andy is still afraid to relax his vigilance.
"I know that it's not a gentleman's job to turn back. I rejected them at the beginning, but now I regret it. It's also a kind of trouble for them. But... "Lan Li thought about it seriously and said solemnly," but I really hope to be able to play the role of this film. "
"Andy, if necessary, I'm willing to audition and compete fairly with other actors. Please be sure to express my apologies and my sincerity. " Langley said sincerely, while Andy was in a brainstorm - because he felt the enthusiasm and firmness in Langley's words sincerely:
The familiar Langley is back.
"Andy, I know it's not easy. I'm sorry." Langley can understand how troublesome Andy's work is.
"No, no, No." Andy finally regained his mind. "It's OK. It's my job. Let me solve those things that offend people." Andy is not worried about Kenneth - Ronald Reagan, his attention is still in the blue, "just, blue, are you really sure?"
"Yes." Langley gave a crisp answer.
Andy sighed with relief. "OK, I see. Let me do it. You don't need an audition. You can start reading the script and get ready to play."
"So confident?" Lan Li chuckled.
Andy raised his eyebrows slightly. "Lanli, please have some confidence in me and in you, OK?"
"Ha, then I'll wait for your good news." Blue Li also followed light up.
Hang up the phone, Andy sitting on the edge of the bed, carefully think about it, and then the smile can't help blooming: lanli finally came back.
"What's the matter? Why do you suddenly smile so brightly? You look like a bulldog Make complaints about the complaining voice of his wife, but Andy did not care a little. He stood up and walked towards his wife. "Let me give you my regards and express my sincere apologies."
As far away as the other side of the North American continent, Langley also hung up the phone, fixed his eyes on the bright night view of New York, took a look, then turned and walked toward the kitchen——
The hills in front of us still have to be sorted out. Otherwise, not to mention whether Matthew will explode directly, at least the kitchen will be in a mess, and all the food will be destroyed. Of course, the most important thing is that Matthew may explode in situ. He thinks it's better to tidy up.
But... Where should we start?
The night in New York is still long. Who can imagine that Langley is doing housework in the kitchen? Or, who can imagine such a picture?
The night of Indio is reveling - at least for don Quixotes, they can't imagine what Langley is doing, and they don't have time to think about it for a while, because the Pioneer Village Music Festival has no official program yet, but their faction has already begun.
No one can refuse the Pioneer Village Music Festival.
It's ridiculous. After all, it's a folk music festival, and it's the first one. Even with Langley hall, its appeal is far less than those of the top music festivals; However, the Internet frenzy has taken on a different look, giving the Pioneer Village Music Festival a sacred mission bit by bit——
It's a place where don Quixotes gather, a place where minority cultures and minorities dream, a cultural symbol against the fast food culture and entertainment to the death of the Internet age, a place of pilgrimage that emphasizes personality and self, and adheres to dreams and beliefs, just like Woodstock in those days.
In 1969, Woodstock was also a rock festival for the first time. It was rejected by the government, ridiculed by the mainstream stars and excluded by the mainstream media. It was like a ghost party that only hippies would attend; However, the decadence, depression, pessimism and pain that never dissipated after the end of World War II gave Woodstock different meanings and eventually developed into a symbol of American cultural history.
In 2015, the same was true of pioneer villages. Starting from the powerful influence of blue rite, it gradually deviated from the original track in the process of publicity and promotion. Social network gave the music festival more significance, more important and more profound significance
From movies to music, from "Don Quixote" to "pop drummer", and so on, since Langley appeared on the small screen through the "Pacific War", he has always insisted on himself. Even in the era of entertainment to death and the supremacy of interests, he has never changed his original intention and pursued his dream wholeheartedly, This is called the contemporary Don Quixote.
However, hidden in the name of Don Quixote, there are more profound practical significance. When the fast food culture begins to occupy the mainstream of people's spiritual life, can the space of artistic creation and philosophical thinking continue to exist? If the answer is no, will the meaning of human existence gradually escape into nothingness? Only by exploring the spiritual world outside the material world can human beings determine their own existence
Who I am, where I come from, where I will go.
This is a long-standing self thinking of human beings. However, the fast-paced life under the fast-food culture is quietly destroying the thinking ability of the young generation. So, where will human beings go?
The insistence of Langley is not only the insistence of Don Quixote, but also the insistence of those who refuse to be submerged by the trend of the times.
The problem is that everyone says that the tide of the times has been irresistible, and the fast food culture in the Internet age is becoming popular, so what should they do? Is that all?
No, of course not!
They should unite, they should gather together, just like Woodstock used to express their ideas with practical actions!
