Chapter XXXVIII
With the roar of the engine, a Chevrolet left the parking lot, Li Xu reached out and fanned the dust raised in front of him, shook his head with a smile and returned to the bar. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info think back to the annoyed middle finger before she got into the car just now, it's really cute.
He liked Jodie Foster more and more, young and pretty, especially those blue eyes, which were really attractive.
What's more, this girl is smart but very straightforward, mature but with a little ignorance, she can talk about any topic, Li Xu ran to Los Angeles in three days a few years ago, and she met when she was weaving a net for her future goals, and they quickly chatted together.
Then, he especially likes to flirt with Judy, this fast-talking girl, now she is not a person who likes to suffer, he dares to flirt, she dares to flirt back, that-for-tat feeling is so funny.
But after something, Judy began to subconsciously avoid him, and there was no time to talk about it.
But Li Xu didn't plan to let her go, so as long as he had the opportunity to meet, he would go over and pester, teaseing her like before, even if he was splashed with water once.
As long as the other party doesn't hate you to the bone, just the right amount of stalking will only deepen her impression of you. That's what Daddy is saying.
Li Xu is quite talented, and I don't know if he didn't discover it in his previous life, or if he was exposed to it in this life, in short, he has always grasped it very well. Even if Judy chooses to ignore his existence like tonight, she will be provoked to be embarrassed and want to beat people up, but she feels that it is not worth it.
Of course, there's a reason for that.
It's not my fault, I'm a victim. Li Xu, who returned to the bar, muttered in his heart, but there was a hint of a bad smile on his face.
"Hey, Add, where have you been?" Adam didn't know where he came from.
"Just met Jodie Foster. Li Xu replied.
"Judy Foster?!" Adam's eyes lit up, "where?"
"Just sent her away. Li Xu patted him on the shoulder.
"It's a shame. Adam regretted that her role in "Taxi Driver" was so charming. ”
"Then you remember that if you have the opportunity to see her in the future, don't say that you are my friend," Li Xu said admonishingly, "Otherwise, when you are splashed with water, don't say that I didn't remind you." ”
"Splash water?" Adam blinked in astonishment, then showed a curious look, "Add, don't you have something to do with that Miss Foster...... Well, you know. ”
"We are friends," Li Xu digressed the topic lightly, "To be honest, if she wasn't as old as me, I would have recommended her to play Princess Leia in the first place." ”
It's a pity, if Jodie Foster really plays Princess Leia, maybe someone will blow up the Capitol for her. It's a pity that she was only 14 years old when the "Star Wars" project was established, which is really young, and Li Xu's words are not enough.
But it doesn't matter, there is still this and that is missed, and in another five or six years, maybe we can make "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" and let her play the heroine, which must be very interesting.
The reason why I already have a package about Hollywood, but also invest in Lucas, Spielberg and their films, and come to the premiere with a show, make friends with these people, and weave these nets, is just to have a smoother time.
Take Jodie Foster as an example, the trajectory of her future life has been clearly imprinted in Li Xu's mind, so if under his influence, this trajectory is twisted and twisted to a new path, it must be very interesting.
Anyway...... Li Xu has nothing else to do in this life, some things he doesn't want to do, and some things he can't do, so he still plays what he wants to play.
Besides, hasn't the life trajectory of Teresa Teng and Baihui Yamaguchi been distorted by him? If there are a few more, it will be regarded as playing the realistic version of "Star Volunteering", and now there are a lot of opportunities to cultivate some people from an early age.
Not to mention the release of "Star Wars", with the foundation of the first part, the second part can be a box office hit even if the quality is average, not to mention that the second part is still the best made in the first trilogy.
Anyway, when the time comes, Li Xu will definitely have to share the account, and even if Fox wants to do something in the account book, he will not dare to go too far. If you really want to go too far, it's a big deal to adjust your plans and buy Fox from Mark Ritchie and Marvin Davis first, and then clean them up as you want.
If you are still angry, then simply dismantle it little by little and sell it, anyway, the United States has been doing this throughout the 80s, and many famous companies have been treated like this. As for the future from the seven to the six, so what? Murdoch has no Fox to buy, and Paramount and Universal.
So, five days later, on May 21 (compared to another time and space, the release time of "The Empire Strikes Back" was five days earlier), Li Xu held an 18th birthday party in his father's villa, which is also a coming-of-age ceremony in this life.
The sound of tinkling music echoed in the large room, and the rhythm was light and intense, sometimes like a storm, sometimes like rain hitting plantains.
Li Xu, sitting in front of the grand piano, was dressed in a black suit, with a bow tie on the neckline of his white shirt, his hair was combed very neatly, his eyes were slightly squinted, and his slender fingers were flying lightly on the black and white keys.
The mixed-race face originally inherited the advantages of his parents, and at the moment he was focused and serious in playing, even more handsome, like a piano master, giving him an inexplicable outstanding temperament.
Finally, as the last note landed, Li Xu put away his hands, then slowly exhaled and relaxed his body.
The music is not long, only about three minutes, but the tempo is fast, and it is quite showy, and it requires enough control that the vest is a little wet when the song is played. Playing the piano is also an individual work, and the longer the time, the higher the physical strength required, so the pianists who can win international awards are mainly men.
When he finished playing, he stood up, bowed slightly to the room, and burst into applause.
There were a lot of people at the scene, parents, grandfathers and a large group of business friends, the average age is almost 60, after all, birthday parties are also a good place to socialize.
However, these elderly people don't like the piece played by Li Xu very much, because this piece is based on the third chapter of Beethoven's "Pathétique". That's right, it's the "Pathos v3" that Koreans quit after the millennium to match a certain game.
In the original version, one person couldn't play it, and he had to play it with all four hands, but when Li Xu took this and asked Richard Clayderman for advice, yes, it was the piano prince, who had been invited to be his piano teacher for a while.
Despite the fact that Clayderman is called the Prince of Piano, in fact he is not very popular among the French piano players, because ...... In the eyes of the old men, his piano music was a bit too commercial, and commercialization was tantamount to vulgarization.
The piano is an elegant art, how can it be commercialized and vulgarized? Naturally, I don't like it, even if the other party has gained the support of many music fans after releasing the album.
Li Xu didn't know much about this aspect, and he remembered a few pianists' tunes, such as Claemond's "Poems to Adeline" or "Adhelina by the Water", so after Clemmond released his first music album in 76, he told his parents that he hoped that the other party could come to guide his piano skills.
Well, starting from grandpa, the children of the Li family must know at least one musical instrument, as for the reason, of course, it is to cultivate sentiment, it is said that little Morgan likes his grandfather to play the piano very much.
The deceased uncle could play the violin, and the father was more rebellious and liked to play the guitar, and then after rock became popular, he learned electric guitar, bass, and keyboards, and as for the cousin, he learned the violin like his uncle.
Li Xu chose the piano, firstly, this is the musical instrument of his grandfather, and secondly, this thing is so high-end and atmospheric, it is perfect for 13. So he practiced fingering hard for a summer vacation, and his fingers were swollen, and this was just the beginning.
What can he say? The cannon he made an appointment with tears in his eyes will be finished.
Fortunately, Li Xu is somewhat talented in music, and from time to time there are also masters to guide him - Leonard Bernstein of the United States, Glenn Gould of Canada, and Nakamura Yuko of Japan have all been invited to his home to give him one-on-one guidance.
In fact, not only the piano, but also other aspects of education, as long as necessary, after the school study, there will be two or three tutors or even scholars at home to guide him one-on-one and answer his questions.
After living in such a family for more than ten years, Li Xu realized how rich the educational resources of these families at the top of the pyramid are. It can be said that as long as you are willing to learn, even if you are a pig, you can be trained into a talent.
What's more, he also has a golden finger in memory, but unfortunately, although he has learned a lot of languages, in addition to Chinese, American and Japanese accidents, he can also communicate fluently in French and German, and barely listen to and speak Russian, Latin and Cantonese, but he has no interest in becoming a scientist at all.
Okay, the topic is far away, in short, when Clayderman came to give Li Xu one-on-one guidance, because he knew him in a little more detail than other pianists, and also knew that he was different from those orthodox old guys, Li Xu took "Pathos v3" out to ask him for advice.
Even though the composition was so bad that Li Xu had to hum it to Clayderman in the end, he still grasped the gist and was intrigued - so if you can't write the music by humming it to a musician, then there are only two scenarios, either you don't have all the five notes, or the musician you're looking for is not professional enough.
In short, with the help of Clayderman to rearrange the music, this "Pathos v3" can be played alone.
Although there are no electronic elements added to the original, this piece is still outside the scope of classical music, and naturally it will not be popular with old people, especially those who like Beethoven.
But it's not the same with young people.
"Outstanding, Eddie. When Li Xu returned to his peers, a girl with brown hair and blue eyes came up and hugged him, it was his cousin Eleanor Lee.
