The middle-aged man standing on the left hand side is very handsome, tall and tall, in a navy blue dark plaid suit, so that the gray of the temples is dyed with the precipitation and charm of the years, and the bright eyes will light up the entire face. ; The middle-aged woman on the right hand side is generous and elegant, with red lace evening dresses, antique Greek goddess design with low-key dignity and magnificence, and her updo reveals the delicate elegance. The face, the traces of time have become another kind of beauty.

George Hall and Elizabeth Hall.

The two people appeared together, walking calmly, calmly and gracefully, and from time to time they also politely nodded with the surrounding crowd, which made those projected sights embarrassed to continue to stay, only to avoid politely, and then use their gaze. Observe every move next to it. The chat is still going on, everyone is whitewashing peace, but they are already absent-minded.

The footsteps stopped beside Renly and John. The projected shadow covered John’s sight, interrupted John’s words, and raised her head reflexively. Elizabeth smiled a lady’s face at John, "Everything recently. Is it okay? Mr. Cod. I also watched your "Nicholas Nick Be ( last week. The performance was really wonderful."

"Nicholas Nick Bay" is a play adapted from Charles Dickens (nets)'s original novel, which is also a beech wood much loved by the British.

"My honour." John thanked politely, "but honestly, I still think Lanly is the most suitable candidate. In his current age group, I can't find a more perfect choice." Original novel Among them, Nicholas is a young man in his early twenties.

Lan Li raised his eyebrows slightly. He had never heard of it. However, instead of looking at George and Elizabeth, he turned and looked at John. "When did this version start rehearsing?"

"About March last year." John did not notice the undercurrent surging between the three Halls, and said frankly, "I have been waiting for your response until the last moment. So, don't tell me anything, you are now I want to return to the stage. Last year, you rejected Nicholas Nick Be. You just said that you have been busy with work recently. Let me tell you, Lan Li, if you continue like this, the basic skills will really be wasteful.

Last April, that was before the official broadcast of the "Pacific War". At that time, Lan Li was still at home and had not yet encountered the opportunity to be "buried alive". In other words, if Lanly learns that John is rehearsing "Nicholas Nick Beth", he is absolutely willing to return to the West End of London to audition.

But why does Lan Li know nothing?

Lan Li's eyes fell meaningfully on George and Elizabeth, but the two were very calm, extremely calm, without any fluctuations. "I think so too. So, Sir Dench will come back every two years. Performing in the West End of London for a while. I should continue this fine tradition." On his lips, Lanly was responding to John's concerns.

George turned his head to look at Elizabeth, his expression unchanged, "It is winter, everyone is becoming lazy, hiding at home, not even the theater is willing to visit, only tourists from all over the world. The so-called classic The repertoire has gradually become a tourist attraction. There is no art and no creation. It is time to be eliminated. Mr. Cod, what do you think?"

This is a question that the entire art world is discussing, and the same is true for the upper class. They don't want to enter the theater and see a large number of visitors who don't understand anything. What they worry about is not those audiences who speak out their own views on the drama, but those audiences who can't see it at all, and they don't even follow the basic drama etiquette.

John retracted his jaw gently and was about to answer. Unexpectedly, Lan Li took a step ahead, "Hehe, modern society is always too impetuous, and can't wait to abandon those traditional arts, and then stick to those stupid situations and etiquette. While refusing to accept the progress of the trend, while refusing to explore the connotation of tradition. This is how art is gradually dying out."

While discussing art on the surface, it discusses rules. Behind these simple words, there is a sharp edge.

Eaton was caught in the middle, and he only felt like a man on his back. He still didn't like this kind of occasion. His eyes fell on George for a while, then he looked at Lanly again, completely at a loss, like a lost lamb.

"Is it like a library?" Elizabeth took the conversation calmly. She just mentioned "Nicholas Nickbey" just to open up the social situation. For a while, she forgot. John once called. Invite Lan Li to perform. But this is not enough to make her panic. "Young people are now accustomed to reading with computers, the role of libraries is declining, and even the status of paper books is dying out. Who knows how the future will be exhibited? The so-called art should remain in its original appearance. If it becomes a commercial bargaining chip, it is better to seal it up, like a painting, and keep it in a museum."

"Then let all the younger generation resist entering the museum. When the older generation has left, art will follow them and leave forever." Lan Li's answer was not hurried, but he looked at George evenly. And Elizabeth. Elizabeth was still forbearing at this time, her expression stable; but deep in George’s eyes he could already see the flames rising, "I mean, the library will not die, even if everyone will use mobile phones to read in the future, but the library The status of art still exists. The same is true for museums. We have to recognize the significance of museums, but we also have to recognize the new characteristics of art given to the Internet age.

The reason why film is called the seventh art is because it combines various art forms such as painting, drama, literature, and music, and then creates a field of its own. Regardless of artistic works or commercial works, they are ultimately a form of artistic creation. Just like literature and drama in the past, movies should also be accepted by "conservative forces."

A brief summary of the conversation just now is:

Movie actors are shameful. Movie actors are glorious.

George stared at Lanly, but under the calm surface was squally rain, "What about hunting? Should hunting be eliminated by the times? Or is it still advancing with the times?"

"If it is for survival, then hunting is part of the cycle of nature; but if it is for showing off and socializing, then hunting is just like clothes, jewels, and crowns. It is nothing more than people's capital to show off. In my opinion, hunting and movies, There is no difference.” Lan Li showed a strong momentum of rather than bending, and under the attack of George and Elizabeth, he still did not lose the wind.

Elizabeth could feel George's arm muscles begin to tighten, but she did not have the energy to persuade George, because her own chest also accumulated a fire and burned.

Lan Li was deliberate, they knew, and Lan Li himself knew that all of this was carefully arranged.

They confessed the time in advance, just to let the two sides miss each other and protect their face; but Lan Li still chose the same time period and appeared directly. The hateful thing is that Lanly’s footsteps arrived just a few minutes after Elizabeth’s arrival, which pushed George and Elizabeth into an embarrassing position—they could not find an excuse to leave immediately, otherwise the intention to escape would be lost. It's too obvious.

To make matters worse, Lan Li never took the initiative to find George and Elizabeth, and he took the initiative to socialize, and did not shy away from the strong exposure rate brought by "Degree and Excitement/Emotion 5", which is simply embarrassing. The "family ugliness" of the Hall family seems to have been exposed on the table in this way.

The honor carried by the surname "Hall" can be ignored by Renly, but neither can George nor Elizabeth. Therefore, in this spirit dispute, they were destined to be the loser, so they compromised and took the initiative to find Lan Li.

It's not the embarrassment in anticipation, nor the despair in anticipation, or even the cringes and flinching in anticipation, the confident and ostentatious Lan Li, which completely ignited the embarrassment and anger deep in the hearts of George and Elizabeth. Lan Li was in social occasions. Every inch of Victory, that is, every inch of the Hall family's retreat in social occasions.

"Then winter hunting, you'd better not attend, lest you get out of place at the scene." Elizabeth was amiable with a smile on her face, but there was a chill in her words~lightnovelpub.net~, which made people shudder.

Lan Li nodded politely and responded with a smile. Although I didn't speak, but the attitude of neither humble nor humble was the best answer: Winter hunting, I disdain to attend.

However, George and Elizabeth didn’t care about Renly’s attitude. They wanted the result. They relaxed a little bit, but before they had time to calm down, Renley smiled and said, “By the way, I’ll work in Hampshire. You are welcome to visit the class and share the latest news about hunting."

George's face was dark, not obvious in the night, but Lanly knew that George's emotions had reached a critical point. In the face of things, George's temper tolerance is certainly not so bad, but in the face of Lan Li, this is another matter.

Elizabeth squeezed George's arm secretly, motioned her to calm down, then stepped forward and said with a smile, "Then your father and I will leave first, and we still need to attend the Hamilton couple's private party." Elizabeth pretended to tell her. Lan Li gave a hug, affectionately like a mother who loves her child, but whispered in Lan Li's ear, "You should behave more appropriately."

Lan Li couldn't help but smile, "You should know your children better."

Elizabeth meant that Renly should avoid the time when they appeared; while Renly meant that he was a deliberately wrong personality, not allowing attendance, but would deliberately attend instead. If George and Elizabeth did not notify in advance, Lan Li would not deliberately choose a time. They may meet or may not meet each other. This is each 50% chance; but if they notify in advance, it is equivalent to setting up a target, Lan Li Can not easily miss.

With a confrontation, the two let go of each other, and then George and Elizabeth just turned and left.
