The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)

Chapter 818: in silence

Timsey Leslie habitually opened the page of the eleven studio and began to look for the latest developments in Lanly. This has almost become a habitual action that he has fixed every day for the past six months. The brain does not need to think at all, and a series of actions are completed smoothly.

As a veteran professional fan, since he participated in the "Pioneer Village Night" in New York last September, he has added a "Lan Li-Hall" to his list of favorite singers.

That night, he not only enjoyed the music of Lan Li, but also the question-and-answer session, the live piano performance, and the easily adapted guitar session. All of them showed Lan Li’s right to music, life, dreams and right. Free understanding. This fascinated Timsey deeply.

He knew that Lan Li was an actor. However, Lan Li can see the integrity and vigor of an artist. This is so rare that he is even willing to walk into the cinema to watch Lan Li's works, and he is full of joy and praise. This is really incredible, but it's happening in real. At the moment in 2012, such an artist can be found.

So, every day, Timsey is looking forward to the latest news from Renly. Even if there is no movement, he is content-because artists are always so, silently immersed in their own world, they can see the space, time and dimension that ordinary people cannot understand, touch, and communicate, and then Complete the creation with artistic techniques and forms.

But deep down, Timsey was still looking forward to it, always keeping it.

"One person's concert", Timsey saw the announcement, and all his movements stopped in place. There were thousands of butterflies in his chest flapping their wings at the same time, and the whole person was about to explode with excitement. After exhausting all his strength, he didn't jump directly and yelled frantically.

I forced myself to calm down, read the announcement over and over again, over and over again, and then the corners of my mouth rose.

He remembered the song in "Don Quixote", "Old Friends".

The lyrics sang like this, "On my shoulders, carrying the depression of winter, I saw you standing there, always standing behind me, secretly reminding that there are still people caring about me. But, my old friend, where are you? ?? Oh, my old friend, where are you?"

Involuntarily, Timsey still hummed the fresh and moving melody, inexplicably, his nose was slightly sour. Between the lines of those simple words, he could read a touch of sadness.

"I kept my promise, now it's your turn."

This is a letter written to a specific person. It is not typed on a computer, but written in handwritten fonts. After it is written by hand, it is scanned and uploaded. In Lan Li's chic and light font, poetic nostalgia, smart sadness, and affectionate calling always make people involuntarily start to chew.

God, just reading this invitation letter, Timsey's whole body is already trembling, so excited that he can't help himself. His first reaction was: tell everyone, tell everyone who likes Renly music, tell everyone who feels the soul of the "Don Quixote" album.

Madison Square Garden, New York, is a national concert attraction. With 20,000 seats, if you are not careful, the attendance rate may be a tragedy, and it will become a big laughing stock-imagine that with 20,000 seats, there will only be 200 audiences. This is estimated to be the largest in the history of American music. Jokes.

Timsey needs to tell his friends, the more the better.

However, the fingers placed on the keyboard hesitated.

This letter was published on the website of the 11th studio. There was no news propaganda, no related reports, or even any news. What does this mean? This means that this is a concert that truly belongs to one person, a concert that belongs to "every soulmate". This invitation letter is sent to every listener who really understands Lanly's music.

This is not a commercial performance, nor a publicity performance. If Timsey is now publicizing it, it may spread quickly. With 20,000 seats, it may be able to reach 50% or even higher attendance; but that is not Lanly's style, nor is it " The purpose of a concert for one person.

More importantly, deep down. Timsey doesn’t want to share this secret with others. It’s like a secret he and Renly know together. Through the album "Don Quixote", he has a glimpse of the loneliness in the dreamer's heart. I heard a trace of comfort in the artist's heart, just like Don Quixote, singing solitary and brilliantly, regardless of whether there is an audience.

If, in the entire Madison Square Garden, there are only two spectators. One is him and the other is a partner invited by Lan Li. In the huge world, only they wandering in the world of music, that would be such a wonderful and happy thing. It's like the whale in the depths of the sea.

That whale called Alice.

Normal whales, their chirping frequency is only fifteen to twenty-five hertz, but Alice's frequency is fifty-two hertz. Therefore, in the eyes of other partners, Alice is like a dumb. For so many years, it has always been alone and alone. It has no relatives or friends. When singing, no one hears it; when it is sad, no one pays attention to it. , In the vast ocean, looking for it hard.

Timsey heard the fifty-two hertz frequency of "Don Quixote." He selfishly hoped that he was the only one who heard it; but contradictoryly hoped that Lan Li was not alone in this world.

After hesitating again and again, Timsey resisted the impulse and closed all pages. Looking at the calendar on the wall, the countdown started: there are still four days before the sixteenth.

Timsey is not alone.

Although the 11th studio is an independent small workshop, they still have many loyal supporters. This announcement came out in silence, but it also spread quietly.

The strange thing is that no one spreads it on the Internet. It seems that everyone tacitly hides this invitation letter in their hearts, and then quietly looks forward to: Which familiar faces will appear in the garden on time? What? What new strange faces will appear?

Even the Yahoo community is silent. It seems that this invitation letter has never appeared before, and no one has ever noticed it. This is really rare in the Internet age, and it's really too special. The influence of the album "Don Quixote" may not be broad enough, but far-reaching.

"One-person concert", after the official invitation, there were no waves, no movement, and no response. Therefore, it is completely unpredictable. What will happen next? On the day of the concert, how many 20,000 seats in the garden can gather. What about the audience? Two hundred people? Or two thousand people? No one knows.

Furthermore, the 11th Studio did not even announce the ticket sales method for the concert. So far, the major online platforms have been quiet. There is no ticketing website or ticketing company that publishes any ticket information about the concert. It seems that those ticketing companies don't even know that the garden has arranged this concert.

This is incredible.

As the nation’s top concert venue, the garden’s every day itinerary is fully arranged, not only for concerts, but also for various sports competitions, public events, charity rallies, etc., almost all year round. Even on official venue holidays, the major ticketing companies are all aware of it.

What's more, in the Internet age, for any performance, competition or event, online ticket sales are the most important sales method, even accounting for 90% of the tickets sold, or even higher.

Now, on February 16th, the garden has arranged a concert, but the ticketing company has not responded. This is simply a fantasy.

In the silence, it seems that everyone has reached a tacit consensus: this unique concert will line up to buy tickets at the scene, returning to the most primitive, simplest and most direct way of buying tickets.

On the evening of the 11th, the 11th studio issued an announcement; on the 12th, there was no movement; on the 13th, there was no movement; on the 14th, the official website of Entertainment Weekly released heavy news.

"A temporary concert, is this a self-hyped show? Or is it a strategy to gain sympathy?

——Len Li-Hall, the "One Man Concert" is about to be held, and the sword points to Grammys. "

Without warning, "Entertainment Weekly" this exclusive news written by Cornell McGregor directly dropped a blockbuster and shocked the entire entertainment industry.

The article explained the ins and outs of the matter, refused to admit that he was the singer's blue gift, and the blue gift who had never cared about the Grammys, but in the Grammy voting sprint stage, announced the start of a solo concert, just like Sima Zhao's heart, a passerby As we all know, the hype intent can't be more obvious.

The article also mentioned that after receiving the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor in Berlin, Lan Li made a meticulous plan to return to the awards season academy public relations ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ This trajectory is the same as the "absent Oscars" a year ago. The incident has a weird similarity. Obviously, whether it is to retreat for advancement or take the initiative to attack, the intention of malicious hype is fully revealed.

This news report is not only an exclusive report on "One Man’s Concert", and everyone was so surprised that everyone fell through their glasses; it also further pushed this year’s lively and extraordinary awards season to a new climax, one after another. Lan Li, who was questioned, stood on the cusp of the storm again:

Is he really making malicious hype? Concert, what is going on?

The people who don’t know the truth have begun to express their opinions and opinions, but there is no doubt that the exclusive role of "Entertainment Weekly" has a strong guiding role of public opinion, and laid the foundation for the whole incident first.

As Cornell said: If it is not grandstanding, if it is not malicious hype, if it is not deliberate, why choose to hold a concert at this critical moment? And is it still the most watched Madison Square Garden in the United States? If it is not booked in advance, if it is not planned early, it is an impossible task to find a space in the garden temporarily and hold a concert.

So, hype, conviction?
