1053 Rise to fame
Leaving the cabin and entering the terminal, Lan Li can instantly feel the gaze from all directions, scorching and surging, dancing briskly and enthusiastically on the surface of the skin, and every pore can feel the boiling heat, in a trance, as if in Miami, not New York.
The sixth sense instinct told Lan Li that things seemed to change quietly, but for a moment there was no reason for it.
"Hey, Lan Li. Not far away, a chubby Italian woman walked up to her, her eyes full of smiles, enthusiastically opened her arms, and hugged Lan Li tightly.
Then, she slapped Lan Li's back heavily and let out a series of exclamations, "You are such a guy that people have to like, God forbid, thank you, thank you so much." ”
The slightly trembling voice could taste the excitement in her heart. After saying that, the kind lady didn't continue to bother with it, patted Lan Li's arm again, and then turned away.
Lan Li, who was standing in place, didn't even have a chance to speak, and then he could only watch the back of the lady leaving, turned his head, looked at Roy and Nathan in confusion, and frowned slightly, "Just now...... What happened?"
Nathan opened his mouth, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and laughed silently, his eyes full of smiles, while Roy looked at Lan Li with a smile, spread his hands, and shrugged his shoulders to show his innocence, "I just got off the plane too." ”
It's a little episode...... If it's a stand-alone event.
Next, the stranger who took the initiative to hug Lan Li, or the young man who raised his right hand excitedly and called for Lan Li to give a high-five, or the passenger who gave Lan Li a thumbs up from afar...... It's always in a constant stream.
It's not the kind of fan-like pursuit or screaming, nor the kind of surprise and excitement after accidentally meeting an artist, it's more a kind of warm praise and blessing, and some people even clench their fists and shout "come on". This situation is really a bit weird, and Roy, who claims to be well-informed, is also unsure.
In the end, Nathan came up with an idea, "You say, will it be the ice bucket challenge ......" As he spoke, Nathan became a little less confident, and his voice gradually faded away.
In contrast, Nathan is younger and more adaptable to social networks, and has a deeper understanding of the madness of the ice bucket challenge. After Lanli created a social network account, he usually didn't have time to take care of it, so Nathan was in charge of updating and organizing it for the time being.
After feeling Lan Li's contemplative expression, Nathan added, "I mean, after the Ice Bucket Challenge, people saw a different side of Lan Li, not only about charity, but also about the previous actions. Nowadays, people look at Lan Li, and naturally they are different. ”
Originally, it was expressed with confidence, but at the end, he added, "Isn't it?"
Roy's eyes showed a hint of firmness and agreement, while Lan Li, who was standing on the side, did not speak, and his calm expression was also elusive, as if he was caught in his own thoughts.
This time, before returning to New York, Lan Li and Edith met once.
Edith, who has been full of controversy and pressure, has not only not been worried about the difficulties in her life recently, but has radiated a more dazzling brilliance, not only completed two collaborations with the United Nations, but also officially established her own studio in London, expanding the scope of her work business to Europe, busy life and returning to her own reality, which makes Edith's temperament and edges more distinct.
Even Arthur couldn't help but tease, "Originally, I didn't think that Chris was climbing, but now I finally have to agree." ”
In the midst of their busyness, Edith and Chris Evans have significantly less time to meet.
Edith didn't care and devoted herself to her work, and in desperation, Chris, who had finished filming, flew to London to accompany Edith here.
During this period, Lan Li also met with Chris once - during the ice bucket challenge, Chris's tweet was not groundless. Until now, Lan Li clearly remembers Chris's frightened look on his face, and when he learned that Lan Li and Edith had the same family name, Chris couldn't help but burp in fright.
During the conversation, Edith also brought up the Ice Bucket Challenge. At that time, it had only been less than a week since Lan Li launched the campaign, but Edith still felt the change in the wind direction of high society, and she could clearly feel that the name "Lan Li-Hall" was gaining weight among the London aristocracy.
Not only because of the achievements of the actors, but also because of the high-level people from different fields such as education, science and technology, sports, finance, etc., through the ice bucket challenge to re-understand the blue ceremony, the social waves caused by this charity activity are infiltrating the whole society layer by layer, even ****** also heard about this event, and said that it was "very interesting".
For the aristocracy, money and glory, this could not impress them, but fame and reputation could.
Now, things have gradually escaped the control of the Hall family, and Lan Li really has a place among the upper class in London, and not as the youngest son of the Hall family, but as Lan Li.
At the time, Edith quipped, "If this campaign can really work, it will promote the research of the whole disease, and even trigger a chain reaction in society." Well, perhaps, in the near future, George and Elizabeth will have to rely on your reputation, and I am already looking forward to it. ”
That was feedback from the start week of the event, and now another three weeks have passed.
If it's as Edith said, if it's as Nathan said, then life is really amazing.
Lan Li never thought of building prestige through charity activities, let alone saving the country in this way, so as to gain a foothold in London and gain capital to confront George and Elizabeth. Never.
If it really happens, it means that it is Heather Cross who has become the key, the most important turning point on the road of Lanli chasing her dreams and persevering herself. Then, the fate of meeting at Mount Sinai Hospital led them to different positions step by step.
"Isn't it?" asked Nathan again.
Faintly, Nathan could feel the subtle changes in Lan Li's mood, and although he couldn't say why, he still reconfirmed it with trepidation.
"Yes or no. After leaving the airport, ask Andy, and the truth will come out. Lan Li retracted her thoughts and said with a smile.
The fact is that there is no need to leave the airport at all, Lan Li and his party came to the reception hall, and in the face of the crowded reporter pick-up team, they got the answer at the first time.
Ice Bucket Challenge, Ice Bucket Challenge, Ice Bucket Challenge, all the questions are about Ice Bucket Challenge. The journalists' interest in London's West End and Broadway was far less exciting than the excitement and excitement of the Ice Bucket Challenge, and all the questions converged towards the Ice Bucket Challenge.
Not only the original intention of Lanli to launch the Ice Bucket Challenge, but also not only the changes of Lanli's Twitter and Instagram accounts, but also many interesting facts about the Ice Bucket Challenge.
For example, why three actors were selected in the first round instead of actresses, whether it was to avoid scandals, for example, whether the professional athletes' ice bucket challenge deviated from the original purpose of the event, and whether Chris Hemsworth and Vin Diesel both participated in the ice bucket challenge, does this mean that their relationship has been eased.
For example, why didn't Lanli respond to Mark Zuckerberg's appeal on Twitter or Instagram, for example, people in the technology community in Silicon Valley also participated, and many tech bigwigs have followed Lanli's Twitter account to see if it is possible for them to cooperate in the future.
One after another, fancy questions, and what is commendable is that there is no repetition at all, bustling and lively surrounded the Blue Rites, in addition to a series of data on social networks, the craze of the Ice Bucket Challenge is more vividly presented in front of the Blue Rites.
In my impression, the ice bucket challenge in the previous life should have appeared in 2014, which caused a frenzy on the Internet, sweeping the world mightily, even Chu Jiashu who was trapped on the hospital bed, and many news were endless.
The only thought in his mind at that time was that everyone was paying attention to ALS, so what about a high paraplegic like him? They had already been sentenced to death, so what should they do? Deep down, envy and jealousy inevitably bred in their hearts.
Despite this, he was able to empathize, and Chu Jiashu was also very happy to see that the ice bucket challenge really promoted the research of this terminal disease.
Now, the Ice Bucket Challenge has been brought forward by two years because of Lan Li's relationship and has appeared on social networking platforms.
To some extent, Lan Li was a little worried, because the development of social networks has not yet reached the peak of 2014 and 2015, which may affect the promotion of charity activities, but Lan Li still firmly implemented the strategy and found a group of friends to bless them, hoping to really promote the event.
Unexpectedly, the promotion effect far exceeded expectations, and even exceeded the effect of the previous life in the impression of Lan Li.
This time, Lan Li really felt the butterfly effect, after his little butterfly flapped its wings, it set off a storm all over the world, which is undoubtedly a good thing for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Lan Li really used his own power to change the course of society.
In the face of the forgetful and desperate reporters, Lan Li just said lightly that he hoped that everyone would not blur the focus, and that the Ice Bucket Challenge would focus on terminally ill patients and such a rare cold illness, rather than the content of those challenges. Of course, for the great success of the event, Lanli also expressed his sincere gratitude.
