011 Can't refuse
A guitar, a light, a chair, a voice. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Music returns to its purest, simplest, and most simple appearance, singing with soul, communicating with thoughts, and narrating with melody. That power that touches people's hearts gives music a unique look.
Looking at Lan Li sitting quietly in the light with a guitar, the casually rolled up shirt sleeves, the collarless neckline that drooped down sloppily, and the slightly messy and lazy slightly curly short hair, it was completely the posture of a down-and-out bard, but the desire to work with him in Tom's heart became more and more turbulent, not only because Lan Li's afternoon audition successfully touched him, but also because of the soul hidden behind this face.
Whether it is Mark Anthony in the afternoon or Cleopatra in the evening, Lan Li has performed a unique temperament, showing the unknown side of these characters, and the unique and profound understanding is really eye-catching. As an actor, Lan Li has shown a talent that makes people jealous.
You know, this year's Lan Li is only twenty years old.
Tom couldn't help but turn his head to look at his old friend again, Steven's expression was not real in the dim fiber, and he could only vaguely recognize his concentration and intent, immersed in the quiet but turbulent atmosphere of the bar scene. Tom believes that what he can feel, Steven will not miss.
The hard and sharp touch of the strings on his fingertips was faintly jumping, Lan Li lowered his eyes, quietly enjoying the blurred area between fantasy and reality after the creation was over, his thoughts were surging and boiling, he liked such moments, just letting the silence pervade, completing the communication through the melody, and the same musical note collided and fermented different thoughts and reactions in different minds.
This is true for music, and so is for performance, so that the noisy and noisy moments are always enjoyable and truly bring out the charm of art to the extreme.
"Ahem. Although Lan Li enjoyed the moment immensely, he broke the silence when he saw Neil's signal out of his eyes, "Although no one is giving any reaction at the moment, I will assume that you liked the performance just now." One sentence made everyone laugh, the low laughter still seemed a little depressed and dull, but it was the true expression of the appeal of Lan Li's music, "Now that the real master has arrived at the scene, I should take a back seat." Ladies and gentlemen, Jason Mayez, please!"
Without warning, Jason walked onto the stage with a guitar, the audience was a little confused, for a while their minds couldn't get out of the song "Cleopatra" just now, and for a while because of Jason's sudden arrival and regained their emotions, hesitated for a moment, and the applause rang out, and the warm applause shook like thunder.
Jason walked onto the stage, a little stunned - the welcome was far beyond expectations, and it stands to reason that he was late and the audience was lucky not to boo, and they still greeted him with such a warm applause. Without waiting for Jason to think about it, Lan Li walked over and made an inviting gesture, Jason could only collect his thoughts, patted Lan Li on the shoulder, and then walked quickly to the center of the stage and started his performance.
Under the stage, Steven was not in the mood to enjoy Jason's performance at this time, and his mixed emotions made him lower his eyes, turn his head, and then meet Tom's inquiring eyes, even if he didn't say a word, Steven immediately read the meaning in Tom's eyes: Blue Rite, still Blue Rite.
The words of rejection swirled on the tip of his tongue, his pride and self-esteem subconsciously made the same decision, he did not like to overturn his own judgment, and he did not like to admit his mistakes. The use of Joseph Mezzello to play Eugene was a decision made after the "Pacific War" was confirmed, and he was the first actor to be confirmed in the entire crew, but now Steven has to veto his own decision.
However, Steven is not an ordinary person after all.
Although the performance just now is a musical performance and has nothing to do with acting, the particularity of music presents a different side of Lan Li: cheerful and sad, strong and fragile, vigorous and vicissitudes, flamboyant and restrained...... That contradictory temperament is brought to the extreme, giving the musical notes a unique charm. Undoubtedly, Lan Li is charming, sparse and elegant, it is an extremely youthful charm, singing a ballad, and withering at the first gust of cold wind.
This reminds Steven of Eugene in the "Pacific War".
When the war broke out, his only dream was to fight for the country, for the honor of the country, for the happiness of the people. For the sake of world peace, he took the initiative to join the army, but the fragility of his heart restrained his steps, and he watched all his other friends around him go to war, and even the faces on the TV that were full of vitality because they were about to enter the war were laughing at his cowardice and incompetence.
It wasn't until more than a year after the United States became involved in the war that Eugene's heart was finally no longer an obstacle, so he couldn't wait to join the army and rush into the arms of the Pacific Ocean. But he was greeted by unimaginable storms, as well as the collapse and shattering of faith and faith, and the broken soul could not bear even the slightest weight, and struggled in the abyss of despair. To be alive is a torment for him, but also a punishment.
This is the core soul of the series "War in the Pacific", about the impact of war on every soldier, the kind of wound rooted in the soul can never heal, even if it survives, it is still scarred. Not only for the soldiers, but also for the lives of the soldiers after they returned, family, friends, lovers, and even the whole society are paying for the war.
Eugene is the soul of the show, carrying the weight of the entire series. Now, in Lan Li, Steven sees this contradictory but pure temperament.
At the afternoon audition, Steven could turn down Tom on that ground, but now, he can't. He could continue to reject Tom and insist on his opinion, but he couldn't convince himself. Because he knew that Lan Li was the most suitable candidate for Eugene.
With a long exhale, Steven smiled helplessly at Tom, "You know, it wasn't in the original plan. "The public audition was for the casting of actors, but except for the role of Eugene. Now, the situation has been broken.
Although Steven didn't say it explicitly, Tom understood it at once, and a heartfelt smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth, "You should know that this is the right choice." ”
Steven didn't answer, but looked at Tom seriously, and when he saw Tom's slightly reddened eyes, he was slightly embarrassed, and he laughed out loud, "You look like a sixteen-year-old girl." ”
"So you're the forty-five-year-old dean?" Tom retorted without mercy in his mouth, and then Tom stood up hunched over, pointed to the corner of his eye, and motioned to Steven, "You'd better wipe away the tears from the corner of your eye." ”
"It's just a water stain!" Steven argued, but Tom ignored it and left his position lightly, which made Steven really embarrassed, and looked up at Jason who had started to perform the first song on the stage, he rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then stood up and followed Tom's footsteps towards the bar.
Lan Li, who returned to the back kitchen, was being questioned by Neil and Stanley, "God, you are a genius, you are such a genius! Honestly, when was this song written?" Neil said with an excited smile on his face, but although he asked a question, he had no intention of waiting for Lan Li's answer, "Listen to me, you have to share your creations." It's the digital age now, and things are not that complicated!"
Seeing Lan Li's intention to open his mouth to respond, Neil said quickly again, cutting off the possibility of Lan Li's rebuttal, "Let's find a garage, complete the recording, register the copyright, and then register an account with Songcast, upload the song, and then they will take over all the follow-up matters, and soon you can provide downloads on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and other platforms." Now the living space of independent musicians is gradually expanding!"
"That's right. Stanley also nodded in agreement, "Lan Li, it's 2009 now, everything is so convenient, you only need to fill out an application form online, you don't need to go through those complicated procedures at all, and you don't need to deal with big music companies, your music can be shared online." ”
The two of them finally stopped for a while, Lan Li looked at Neil and then at Stanley, "You're all done?" both nodded stunnedly, and then Lan Li spoke, "Making music is just a hobby for me, to pass the time, I don't want to complicate things." Neil wanted to say something again, but this time it was Lan Li who raised his hand to stop him, "Besides, no one wants to download my music, and once in a while perform here to entertain everyone, that's enough." ”
"Who said that!I'll be the first to download your music when it's live!" Neil said impatiently, his bright eyes showing his loyalty.
Stanley also hurriedly raised his right hand, "I'm the second." Then he continued, "Lan Li, believe me, not only us, but everyone else will like it too, and that old guy from Josh Hua asked me about it just now." ”
"Stanley......" Lan Li only had time to open his mouth, and the words behind were interrupted by the corridor door that was pushed open, and the three of them looked in the direction of the door, and then saw Tom's honest and honest face carefully revealed, "Sorry, we didn't mean to break in." Immediately afterwards, Steven behind him also showed his figure, Neil and Stanley were about to dislocate their jaws, and they looked dazed, even Lan Li showed a shocked expression, "We came all the way to find Lan Li, I don't know if he is free now?
The goal is ...... Blue Gift?
