Lan Li's hands were still covered with water droplets, and his clothes were a little messy due to the busy dinner rush, and the whole person was a little embarrassed, Neil dragged so quickly and with so much force that his steps staggered a little, "Slow down, slow down, Neil! What's going on? at least you can update me on the situation first!"

But Neil's footsteps still didn't stop, and he strode Lan Li to the side of the stage, and easily stuffed the guitar leaning against the wall into Lan Li's arms, "It's time for emergency!"

Lan Li's eyes widened, "Again?" Although his expression showed surprise, the movement in his hand did not stop, and he immediately carried the guitar to his shoulder. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Neil spread his hands helplessly, "There is a big traffic jam. Jason was still on Twenty-Third Street, stuck in the car. "This is Seventh Street, it's a long distance, and I don't think I can make it in time for a short time," and now it's up to you to save the scene." Stanley said, and the pay was still there. ”

New York, the city that is always reminded of everyone who lives here in unexpected ways, that this is the world's largest city, and at the same time the busiest city in the world - and that bad traffic jams are always so worrying. Tonight, Jason became another "experiencer".

This is not the first time.

Since the pioneer village always insisted on live performances, and insisted that the performers every day must be carefully selected, rather than a fixed cast all year round, all sorts of unexpected situations were inevitable. Therefore, there is always a need for on-site firefighters from time to time. Until then, comedians were the preferred choice because they could go on stage for a stand-up performance, liven up the atmosphere, and interact with the audience up close, so it was a good idea to stall for time.

However, in an accident last month, there was really no comedian on the scene to save the scene, but fortunately, Lan Li volunteered to perform on stage, avoiding the crisis of the empty window of the performance that night.

For aristocrats like the Hall family, even if they are in decline, they must learn an artistic skill from an early age, such as painting, piano, violin, poetry, wine tasting, etc., and the focus is not on being good at it, but on cultivating sentiment and temperament. Especially in formal social occasions in high society, your eyes, conversation, manners, and demeanor determine your status and image in the circle at the first impression. This is also the fundamental reason why those nouveau riche and later Jin aristocrats have never been able to truly integrate into the upper circle - inheritance and heritage.

Lan Li studied piano and later tried more different instruments at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, mainly to understand the changes and progress of popular culture, which plays an important role in understanding culture, history, and performance. The guitar is one of them.

Originally, it was just a cameo to save the scene, but I didn't expect it to receive a lot of praise. In the past period, Lan Li has been on stage five times.

Neil pushed Lan Li to the front of the stage, then raised his hands to show his innocence, revealing a relieved smile, "I'll leave it to you next!"

Looking at Neil, who was about to be the shopkeeper, Lan Li hurriedly grabbed him, "How much time, how much time do I need to delay?"

"Fifteen minutes. Neil snapped, "When Jason arrives, we'll give you a signal from the audience." After saying that, he didn't stay any longer, ran back to the bar as soon as he slipped away, and threw the hot potato directly to Lan Li.

Seeing Neil's back fleeing with a smoke, Lan Li was not too flustered, raised his head and looked at the clock, and began to estimate in his heart, deducting the time for talking and talking and the rest time for substitutions in between, it was almost a blank of about ten minutes, and he only needed to perform three songs. The task is not too onerous.

At this time, Stanley-Charlson (Stanley-Charlson), who was standing on the stage, saw the blue ceremony that was ready, he had no way to continue to break blindly, as the owner of the bar, he was only on stage, and two minutes of nonsense was already his limit. Therefore, without waiting for Lan Li to catch his breath, he directly raised his right hand high, "Gentlemen, ladies, Lan Li-Hall!"

"Ho ho, Lan Li! Lan Li!" There was a sound of slapping on the table from the direction of the bar, and I couldn't help but turn my head to know that it must be Neil's guy, and with the sound of hitting, many spectators also coaxed, and the whistles and laughter seemed to be very lively.

Steven wiped the last bit of soup from the plate with bread and put it in his mouth - tonight's food was indeed delicious, and he almost choked when he heard Stanley's introduction on the stereo, and his first reaction was to throw an inquiring look at Tom, "What's going on?" But Tom also spread his hands and had a blank expression on his face, not understanding what was going on.

Turning his head to look at the stage, Lan Li with a guitar on his back appeared in front of everyone with a smile on his face, and the coaxing on the scene became more and more lively, Steven couldn't help but turn his head to look around, and found that the guests who were coaxing had words in their mouths, obviously they were already very familiar with Lan Li, and the kind of banter and slapstick between friends was clear at a glance.

Lan Li took the microphone from Stanley and said with a smile, "Good evening, I'm Jason Mayez." The calmness of opening his eyes and telling nonsense made everyone in the bar laugh. "I'm sorry, but Jason was temporarily left fifteen blocks away by Michael Bloomberg's terrible management. Michael, the current mayor of New York.

The ridicule won everyone's heart, and the sound of banging on the table broke out again, mixed with the sound of excited whistles.

"Until Jason arrives on the scene, you'll have to put up with me as an impostor. With just two simple sentences, Lan Li successfully enlivened the atmosphere again, not only did not complain about Jason's tardiness, but on the contrary, it became more and more lively.

Lan Li casually pulled a wooden chair, then sat down generously, and after fixing the microphone, the lights on the stage dimmed. The lights of the entire bar except for the stage were dimmed, leaving only a milky yellow beam of light sprinkled down, enveloping Lan Li's body, the dust in the air was flying up and down, lightly falling on the shoulders, the halo penetrated the messy and unruly golden brown curls and sparsely fell on the face, and a shadow under the thick eyelashes cast a shadow to cover the look under the eyes, and the indescribable silence slowly spread.

Time seems to have stopped all of a sudden.

"While Jason hasn't shown up yet," Lan Li's voice came from the stereo, spreading out in the milky yellow world like blue velvet, and the beauty of the night bloomed proudly in an instant, "I decided to sing his masterpiece first, and when he appears, maybe you can feel the huge gap." The self-deprecating banter made everyone in the audience laugh, even Steven.

The long, straight fingers, with their distinct joints and vigorous power, gently swiped down, and the tinkling strings danced in the spotlight, and the song "I am yours" easily immersed everyone in the bar, and the rhythm of the followers swayed gently. In this moment of leisure, there is music, wine, and friends, and the fragments of life begin to become clear.

Steven looked intently at the blue ceremony in the beam of light, different from the afternoon audition on the stage of the free, unrestrained and wanton, at this moment the blue ceremony looks elegant and clear, I don't know if it is because the contrast between the spotlight and the surrounding darkness is too strong, there is only a lonely figure on the huge stage, the blue ceremony is like a bard singing and chanting, straight to the chest, casual and chic, which makes people jealous.

It seems that there is no skill in singing, but it is easy to grasp the ears firmly, and even the mind is intoxicated by the lazy and hoarse voice, and the aroma of coffee under the wings of the nose is mixed with the sunlight.

When the song was finished, Steven realized the relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but quickly retract it, and glanced at Tom with his eyes, fortunately, Tom raised his hands high at this time, and was applauding Lan Li, and did not notice his abnormality. Not only Tom, but also the rest of the audience, no one noticed the strangeness of the others, everyone just enjoyed the show.

Even if Steven was unwilling, he had to admit that from a professional point of view, Lan Li's performance did make people feel very comfortable, and there was an indescribable appeal. Generally speaking, only those stalwart singers who have gone through vicissitudes and ups and downs have this power, but Lan Li is only twenty years old this year, which is really incredible.

This reminded Steven of the afternoon audition. In fact, the same is true for actors, young actors tend to rely on talent and instinct to perform because of their lack of experience and experience, while mature actors gradually lose their spirituality and rely more on skill and experience to control their performances. But Lan Li's body has a temperament mixed with vicissitudes and spirituality, which makes people shine. That's why Tom stepped up.

"Lan Li, 'Charlie-Boy'", "David Bowie's 'Heroes'...... Under the stage, many audiences began to order songs, and the scene was not lively.

Steven's thoughts were interrupted, but he became more and more playful. Although this was only his first visit to the pioneer village, it is certain that if it weren't for his talent, the audience would not have behaved so enthusiastically just because they knew each other.

Tom finally couldn't help it, turned around and said, "It seems that this little guy is still quite popular!"

Steven is still hard-mouthed, "As an amateur singer?" The actor always has an inexplicable condescension to the singer, and Steven's words are obviously expressing disdain. Tom couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Lan Li's eyes on the stage fell on table fourteen, and the smile on the corner of his mouth had a hint of banter, which made Tom and Steven look sideways, "I just went through a not-so-successful audition this afternoon, but this audition gave me some inspiration, and I would like to share it with you here." ”
