Chapter 11: Can't refuse

　　 A guitar, a light, a chair, a voice.

　　Music returns to its purest, simplest, and simplest appearance, singing with soul, communication with thought, and narration with melody. The power that touches people's hearts gives music a unique look.

Watching Lan Li sitting quietly in the light holding his guitar, the casually rolled-up shirt sleeves, the sloppy collarless neckline, and the slightly messy, lazy, slightly curly short hair, are all a downfall. The posture of the bard, but the desire to cooperate with him deep in Tom's heart has become more and more turbulent, not only because Renly’s audition in the afternoon successfully impressed him, but also because of the hidden face behind this face. soul.

Whether it is Marc Anthony in the afternoon or Cleopatra in the evening, Renly has performed a unique temperament, showing the unknown side of these roles, and his unique and profound understanding is really impressive. Yiliang. As an actor, Lan Li showed an enviable talent.

　　 You know, this year's Lan Li is only twenty years old.

Tom couldn't help turning his head again to look at his old friend next to him. Steven's expression was not real in the dim optical fiber. He could only vaguely recognize his concentration and intent, immersed in the quiet but yet quiet expression of the bar scene. In the turbulent atmosphere. Tom believes that Steven will not miss what he can feel.

The hard and sharp touch of the strings on the fingertips faintly jumped, Lan Li lowered his eyes, quietly enjoying the blurry space between illusion and reality after the creation, his thoughts were surging, he likes such a moment, just Just let the silence permeate, communicate through the melody, the same piece of music collides and ferments different thoughts and reactions in different minds.

　　Music is so, so is performance. This way, noisy and noisy moments are eliminated, and it is always extra enjoyable, and it really makes the charm of art to its extreme.

"Cough cough." Although Lan Li enjoyed the moment very much, he saw Neil's signal out of his sight, and he broke the silence. "Although no one is giving any response at this moment, I will treat it as you like the performance just now. "The words made everyone laugh, and the low laughter still seemed a bit depressed and dull, but it was precisely the true expression of the appeal of Lanly's music. "Now, the real master has arrived at the scene, I should Retired. Gentlemen and ladies, please Jason Majes!"

Without warning, Jason walked onto the stage holding a guitar. The audience was a little confused. For a while, their thoughts could not get out of the song "Cleopatra" just now. Sen suddenly arrived on the scene and regained his emotions. After hesitating for a moment, the applause rang and thunderous applause vibrated.

　　 Jason walked onto the stage, a little dazed-the welcome was far beyond expectation. It stands to reason that he was late and the audience was lucky that they did not boo, but they also welcomed with such warm applause. But before Jason could think about it, Lan Li walked over and made an invitation gesture. Jason could only clean up his thoughts, patted Lan Li’s shoulder, and then quickly walked to the center of the stage and started himself. Performance.

Under the stage, Steven was not in the mood to appreciate Jason's performance at this time. The mixed mood made him lower his eyes, turned his head, and then met Tom's inquiring eyes, even if he didn't say a word, Shi Steven immediately read the meaning in Tom's eyes: Lan Li, it is still Lan Li.

　　 The words of rejection whirled on the tip of his tongue. His pride and self-esteem made the same decision subconsciously. He didn't like to overturn his own judgment, and he didn't like to admit his mistakes. The use of Joseph Mezzero to play Eugene was a decision made after the "Pacific War" was finalized. He was the first actor to be determined on the entire crew, but now Steven has to personally veto his decision.

　　 However, Steven is no ordinary person after all.

Although it is said that the performance just now is a musical performance and has nothing to do with acting skills, the particularity of music presents Lan Li's distinctive side: cheerful and sad, strong and fragile, vigorous and vicissitudes of life, open and introverted... That contradictory temperament has been brought to the extreme, giving the music a unique charm. Undoubtedly, Lanli is charming, sparse and elegant. It is an extremely young charm. He sings a ballad, and withers in the first cold wind.

　　 This reminds Steven of Eugene in the "Pacific War".

At a young age, but at the age of twenty, he unswervingly believed in God, in the country, and in the beauty, just like a white dove firmly protected in an ivory tower. When the war broke out, his only dream was Fighting for the country, for the honor of the country, for the happiness of the people, and for the peace of the world, he took the initiative to join the army, but the fragility of his heart fettered his footsteps, and watched all the other friends around him throw into the war, even the TV The vigorous faces in the plane laughed at his cowardice and incompetence.

　　 Until the United States participated in the war for more than a year, Eugene's heart was no longer a hindrance, so he couldn't wait to join the army and rushed to the embrace of the Pacific Ocean. But what greeted him were unimaginable gusts and rains, as well as the collapse and fragmentation of beliefs and beliefs. The dilapidated soul could not bear even a little weight, struggling in the abyss of despair. To be alive is a torment for him, but also a punishment.

　　 This is the core soul of the "Pacific War" series. It tells the impact of war on every soldier. The wounds rooted in the soul can never heal. Even if they survive, they are still scarred. Not only for the soldiers, but also for the lives of the soldiers after their return. Family, friends, lovers, and even the entire society are paying for the war.

　　 Eugene is this soul character, who bears the weight of the entire episode. Now, in Lan Li, Steven sees this contradictory but pure temperament.

　　 During the afternoon audition, Steven could use this reason to reject Tom, but now, he can’t. He could continue to reject Tom and insist on his own opinions; but he could not persuade himself. Because he knew that Lan Li was the best candidate for Eugene.

　　 With a long sigh, Steven smiled helplessly at Tom, "You know, it was not in the original plan." The public audition was for the selection of actors, except for the role of Eugene. Now, the situation is broken.

　　 Although Steven didn't say it explicitly, Tom understood it instantly, and a smile from his heart could not help but appeared at the corner of his mouth, "You should know that this is the right choice."

Steven did not answer, but looked at Tom seriously. He saw Tom’s slightly flushed eye sockets, a little embarrassed, and laughed out after a chuckle, "You look like a sixteen-year-old boy. girl."

"Then you are the forty-five-year-old dean?" Tom's mouth was merciless, and he retorted directly. After that, Tom hunched his waist and stood up, pointed at the corner of his eye, and motioned to Steven. , "You'd better wipe away the tear from the corner of your eye."

"It's just water stains!" Steven defended, but Tom ignored him and left the position lightly. This made Steven really aggrieved and looked up at the stage and began to perform the first song. Song of Jason, he rubbed his eyes vigorously, then stood up, followed Tom's footsteps and walked towards the bar.

Lan Li, who returned to the kitchen, was being cross-examined by Neil and Stanley, "God, you are a genius, you are a genius! Honestly, when was this song created?" Neil's face Filled with an excited smile, he babbled and talked, but although he asked questions, he didn’t plan to wait for Lan Li’s answer, “Listen to me, you must share your creations. Now it’s the digital age, things Not that complicated!"

Seeing Lan Li’s intention to open his mouth to respond, Neil quickly said again, cutting off the possibility of Lan Li’s rebuttal, "We find a garage, complete the recording, register the copyright, and then register an account with SongCast. Upload the song, and then they will take over all subsequent matters, and soon you will be able to download it on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and other platforms. Now the living space of independent musicians is gradually expanding!"

"Yeah. UU reading www.uukanshu.com" Stanley also nodded in agreement, "Lan Li, it is now 2009. Everything is so convenient. You only need to fill out an application form online. You don’t need those complicated procedures, and you don’t need to deal with large music companies, and your music can be shared online."

The two finally stopped temporarily. Lan Li looked at Neil and then at Stanley. "Are you finished?" Both of them nodded in a daze. Then Lan Li said, "Making music is just My hobby is just to pass the time. I don’t want things to be complicated." Neil wanted to say something again, but this time it was Lan Li who raised his hand to stop him. "Besides, no one would want to. It’s enough to download my music and perform occasionally here to entertain everyone."

　　 "Who said it! After your music goes live, I will download it first!" Neil said impatiently, his bright eyes showing his loyalty.

Stanley also quickly raised his right hand, "I am the second one." Then he continued, "Len Li, trust me, not only us, but everyone else will also like it. Just now the old guy Joshhua asked me about it. ."

"Stanley..." Lan Li only had time to open his mouth, and the words behind him were interrupted by the opened corridor door. The three people looked towards the door, and then saw Tom's honest and honest His face came out cautiously, "Sorry, we didn't deliberately rush into it." Immediately afterwards, Steven also showed his figure. Neil and Stanley were about to dislocate their jaws, looking blank, even though It was Lan Li who also showed a look of astonishment, "We came to find Lan Li on a special trip. I don't know if he is free now? Is it convenient for us to talk?"

　　The goal is... Lan Li?
