Standing in the VIP box, the turbulent scene of the Almeida Theater can be seen, and after the enthusiastic applause has disappeared, the excitement and excitement still remain in the air, filling the entire space, jumping briskly and lively on the surface of the hot skin.

The faces with flying eyebrows and dancing with their hands and feet are bustling and boiling in the sight, clearly presenting the most real and direct feelings of the audience, making people empathize and involuntarily devote themselves to it.

stripped of the senior drama critics of Gao Leng and professional, got rid of the secondary processing of the reporter's report, and felt this shocking baptism with his own eyes and inspiration.

Barry Meyer, a businessman and a manager, has no study or interest in acting, not even in the high arts such as theatre, but he has to admit that it was a real pleasure to watch Lan Li perform live in the theater, and the power that erupted between gestures was deeply infectious.

However, this play is still too long.

Not six hours, but three hours, which would be the most appropriate, and it would be nice if it could be shortened to two hours. At least, for Barry.

After today, he will not enter the Almeida Theater for the second time to see this "Les Miserables" play, nor will the Richard Rogers Theater, except for business, of course.

At the helm of Warner Bros., Barry Meyer's perspective and way of thinking are exceptional. Through this stage, he sees the numbers, through the audience, he sees the blueprint and the numbers behind the blueprint, and through these experiences, he sees the appeal and the appeal behind it, and there are more numbers hidden behind it.

At this point, Barry's head was running rapidly, like a high-speed machine, gradually sketching out the prototype of the plan.

"Knock knock", there was a polite and measured knock on the door panel of the VIP box, and after a while, the door was pushed open, and then, Barry saw Lan Li Hale, and easily found Lan Li Hale in the crowd.

At this moment, there was a bustle inside and outside the box, crowded with a group of celebrities, realizing the arrival of the protagonist, who stood up one after another to express the courtesy greetings of the social occasion.

Theatre manager Emma Fielding is making introductions, and Barry isn't the only big guy here today. Warner Bros. executives in the UK and Europe, senior leadership in listed companies, editors-in-chief of leading media outlets, marketing executives for fashion brands...... About eight or nine people stood in the not spacious box, and the whole space suddenly seemed cramped and embarrassed.

Despite this, Barry's eyes fell on Lan Li for the first time.

Not because of familiarity or eye-catching, but because of the temperament that exudes from the inside out, gentlemanly and elegant, decent and restrained, just the demeanor between gestures, it is easy to stand out, as if born to shine, and the gaze involuntarily projects the past.

Hereditary nobility.

Many times, this noun has no substantive meaning for ordinary people, and is just a gimmick to sigh, "Oh, that person's family is hereditary noble, so ...... He's rich, isn't he?"

They can't really understand that the words "hereditary" and "noble" collide together, representing the heritage and connotation, which cannot be measured by money figures, and at the same time, it is really impossible to buy with money, which is also the reason why countless celebrities are eager for aristocratic titles - this is something they can't buy, and similar things are really rare in the world.

Only by truly talking, getting along, and communicating face-to-face can we feel the richness and vicissitudes of time and history. Although it is now the 21st century, and many of the young people of the new aristocracy have lost this manners and are slowly integrating into social life and keeping up with the pace of the times, for the upper class, that demeanor is still so charming and intoxicating.

"Good evening. Lan Li's footsteps came to Barry's face, and a trace of surprise and surprise slipped in his eyes, without concealing it, obviously extremely surprised by such an encounter, but after being stunned, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose slightly, and he chuckled, "Mr. Meyer, thank you for coming, I hope tonight's performance will not be too long." ”

Barry captures the change in Lan Li's expression, honest and simple, and then returns to normalcy after a moment of stunnedness, and expresses his greetings in a humorous and mocking tone, like a spring breeze, and even more interestingly, Lan Li is still dressed in Jean-Argent's costume, but there is no embarrassment and humility at all.

"No matter how long the journey is, now that we have reached the end, no one cares about the anxiety and suffering of the process, but calms down and enjoys the scenery of the end. I love the view now. Barry put his hands behind his back, politely tucked his chin and nodded in greeting, with a shallow smile on his lips.

Lan Li's eyebrows were slightly raised, savoring another meaning behind Barry's words: long. So, a smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, "What if we do it again?"

Such an unexpected answer, the joking implication could not have been more obvious, which made Barry's eyes appear a little playful, and he couldn't help but laugh happily, and replied, "Well, I have to politely say no." The crisp refusal made both of them laugh.

Immediately after, Barry took control of the initiative and sent out an invitation, "In a moment, I'm going to go to a nearby bar or coffee house, have a drink, relax, how about it, do you have any recommended places to introduce?"

"Then it's up to Mr. Meyer. Nearby are bars for young people, a beer, a football game, and that can ignite the excitement of a Saturday night. Before Lan Li's words fell, he saw Barry's meaningful eyes, obviously misunderstanding the meaning of "passion/affection".

But Lan Li didn't explain further, and continued with a smile, "But if you just want to relax, the hotel bar should be a good choice." ”

"So what if you want to find a quiet place to have a good conversation? Barry stared at Lan Li with burning eyes, and the deep meaning of his words could not be more clear, "I don't know if you have made arrangements for tonight, as far as I know, the Almeida Theater is a rest day tomorrow, how about it, would you like to enjoy a glass of whiskey with me, an elderly American, tonight." ”

Today is Saturday, the last show of the week. Obviously, Barry's decision to come to the show on this night was not a random decision.

"Of course, it's my pleasure. Between the lightning and flint, Lan Li politely nodded and agreed, "Then, I'll see you later." Then, without stopping, between the introductions of Emma Fielding, he left Barry Meyer and continued on to the next big guy.

Soon after, Lan Li turned around and left, only staying for less than five minutes, simply greeting one by one, but with a graceful demeanor, which really left a deep impression on the bigwigs present.

The inspiring performances on the stage, followed by the social etiquette that took place off the stage, unlike any other performer, were the subtle contrasts and the shocks of the senses, creating a unique experience that lit up the night at the Teatro Almeida tonight.

Presumably, this will be the talk of the town in social situations for a long time to come.

On the other hand, for Lan Li, it was just another ordinary night at the Almeida Theatre, with the only special feature being Barry Meyer's visit.

The head of Warner Bros. is definitely the first place in Hollywood's power list, and compared to the reputation of wealth, the decisive and decisive style of action is a beautiful landscape, and with his own strength, Warner Bros. has become the first company in Hollywood.

With the "Lord of the Rings" series, the "Harry Potter" series, the "Batman Prequel" series, and the "Matrix" series, Warner Bros. became the largest film company in the North American market after the turn of the millennium, and it was in the limelight for a while.

But in recent years, as these series have come to an end one after another, Warner Bros. has suddenly shown signs of a weak successor, replaced by Disney, which has relied on the strong rise of Marvel Studios.

Even if it is not a reborn person like Lan Li, Hollywood insiders have predicted that the North American market in the next few years will be a strong showdown between Disney and Warner Bros.

It's just that industry insiders didn't expect that the Marvel series and the Star Wars series burst out with unimaginable power in the hands of Disney, almost to the extent of dominating the country, and completely changing the entire Hollywood map.

In fact, different industry insiders reminded that Barry Meyer grasped the trend of the industry early on, and they have been trying to dig out a new money printing machine, the "Hobbit" series, the Superman series, the Batman series, etc., but unfortunately, Barry misestimated the pattern of comic book movies, and the market value of DC Comics was not really tapped, which also led to the confrontation with Disney, Warner Bros. gradually fell behind.

Despite this, Barry Meyer is still a force to be reckoned with in Hollywood.

Undoubtedly, this is the second time that Lan Li has come into contact with industry bigwigs after Steven Spielberg and Harvey Weinstein, but compared to Steven and Harvey, Barry is one of the helms of Hollywood's six major studios, and he is also the top member of the pyramid who controls the lifeblood of the entire Hollywood.

The entire high-level world of the Hollywood film industry is slowly opening its doors to Lan Li.

However, Lan Li is just a simple actor, and he really doesn't have much interest in power and interests.
