1273 frontal humiliation
“You mean, you won’t return to the stage for a while? Oh, this is really a pity." Kate expressed her regret sincerely, "I have always thought about when I can really appreciate your performance on the theater stage, but now it seems that I have to do it again. Pushed back.”
“God." Richard also exclaimed, "Oh, God. Renly, please, please come back to the West End. Hollywood is just a child's trick, and the theater stage is where you really shine..”
Beatrice raised the topic, but now she couldn't get in the conversation. She stood nearby, her eyes widened like a bunny, staring at Renly, nodding repeatedly, responding to Kate and Richard's words. express agreement.
Renly laughed dumbly, "You know, drama is the art of actors, TV series is the art of screenwriters, and movies are the art of directors. Strictly speaking, the theater stage does belong to actors. An actor like Laurence Olivier, even in a long There are only a handful of them in the river of history.”
These words successfully made everyone nod in agreement. However, William was an exception. He seemed a little absent-minded and not interested in such a topic, but in order to be polite, he still looked at him with a smile..
“In the process of film creation, the actor is a chess piece in the hands of the director, integrated into the work of art. A bad actor may destroy the work; a qualified actor may make the work successful; and a successful actor..." Renly's eyes fell on Beatrice.
“Maybe it will light up this work." Beatrice blurted out without thinking..
Renly smiled and nodded in agreement, "That's right. So, I always think that acting in a drama and acting in a movie are two completely different experiences, but they can find similarities. If you like drama, you can also do it in the movie. Find resonance in movies; conversely, if you like movies, you can also appreciate the moving parts of drama.”
Richard chewed carefully, then showed a meaningful look, and looked at Renly with a smile, "You know, countless people have recommended movies before and after, but I have never walked into a movie theater. Now, I have to admit, you convinced me. Maybe, if I have a chance in the future, I should enjoy a movie before making a judgment..”
“You're always welcome." Renly showed a bright smile..
“Garbage." A rough and muddy voice came from not far away, as if he was talking with a mouthful of thick phlegm. The muffled sound made people feel uncomfortable instantly..
Before everyone could turn around, the sound, like a wire brush being thrown into a juicer, started to sound again, and they cursed one after another, "Dog/shit! Nonsense! Stupid."!”
Moreover, the words used are not simple swear words, but authentic British terms, such as "Nitwits", "Cobblers", etc., from Welsh slang to Scottish patois, everything is gushed, even if it is pure The British may not be able to understand them all, but the people who come here continue to flow neatly and smoothly, and they are completely different..
Don't nobles use bad language??
This is a misunderstanding. In fact, the aristocracy is the group that understands swear words best..
In the process of childhood education, after their etiquette has formed a habit, the family teacher or housekeeper will hold a special class to teach all kinds of swear words. The original purpose is to prevent gaffes and indecency in any situation..
Of course, foul language is only part of it. The entire course covers all terms, including what words are more appropriate for people in specific regions, and some words contain discriminatory or contemptuous implications..
Therefore, for nobles, a person's daily conversation, vocabulary habits, voice and intonation, etc., can reveal too much information. Someone once said that poverty cannot be hidden, especially for nobles..
It is precisely because of this that even down-and-out nobles like the Hall family still maintain a superior attitude. Their rich heritage and long heritage allow them to easily make many judgments in their daily lives, and even more so. Get a better grasp of the overall situation.
So, even though they don't have enough to eat, they still can't help but exude disdain and discrimination..
The reason why nobles do not use foul language is to protect their etiquette and image; but for the older generation of senior nobles, their foul language is also a "treasure trove" that they can easily pick up..
With such a sensational and grand opening statement, you can already know the identity of the visitor without looking back: Viscount John de Bioford.
George's shoulders quietly relaxed a little, and a big stone in his heart finally fell, but he remained calm on the surface..
“Sir." Richard took the initiative to come forward and tried to rescue him..
But John didn’t give Richard any face at all. With his age and identity, his status and connections, he didn’t need to take care of Richard’s thoughts. It was enough to pretend that the elders were teaching the younger ones, " Shut up! Does your father know what you are like now? God, you are a disgrace to the Weir family! Why is everyone talking about an actor??”
John scolded him unreasonably, and the curses that covered his face made Richard's face stiffen slightly..
“You should be lucky that your father didn't know, otherwise he would jump out of the coffin right now! John was still unyielding, and the cursing seemed to have just begun, "You have to remember your identity at all times, how can you be with an actor?" That's a bunch of dirty and ugly servants! They are just coveting your property and identity. They are like rats in a stinking ditch. They stink.!”
Not to mention Richard, Kate and Beatrice standing next to them also became slightly embarrassed because John's words were so unpleasant that they couldn't help but cast their eyes towards Renly..
Richard also realized this and straightened his back, "Sir! Pay attention to your words and attitude! It's already 2013, not 1913!”
“Yes, it's 2013! I know! But John didn't give him any space at all, "Now is the Internet age. Even the Queen must be careful in her words and deeds. Everyone is monitoring our every move!" You must obey the rules more! You say, what on earth is going on? You actually invited an actor! And he's still talking nonsense here?”
“Viscount Bioford! "George stepped forward and interrupted John's words forcefully, "Please pay attention to your etiquette. Unfortunately, my youngest son is an actor." While speaking, George's eyes were still on He looked at Renly and put on an angry expression, "These dirty words can be left outside the party. You can keep your opinions, but please don't lose your temper in person..”
Standing aside, Renly said: I am flattered..
This should be the first time in his history that George has publicly defended himself and fulfilled his responsibilities as a father on any occasion..
But this honor was not something Renly could enjoy..
Just now, John was targeting Richard both inside and outside his words, but he didn't pay any attention to Renly. Apparently, John only heard a few words about the party, and out of disgust for the actor, he came over to condemn Richard, but he had no idea. , who is the so-called actor?.
Now, after George reminded him, John suddenly realized.
“So, this is the proud man of Vanity Fair? Are you his father? "John's attention was transferred instantly, but his firepower did not weaken at all, "You should be ashamed! "This sentence is directed at George, "This is a family misfortune! You should kick him out of the house and you bring him to a party? Is your brain completely reduced to mush??”
George's face stiffened.
John immediately aimed his gun at Renly, and he raised his chin contemptuously and looked Renly up and down with a look of disdain, "How many times have you betrayed your body to get to where you are now? Are you looking for a deal again when you come here tonight? Is it just a woman? Or does it count as a man??”
“Viscount Bioford seems to know the market better than I do. It seems that he has tried a lot before." Renly's expression did not change at all, and he still answered with a smile, "I don't know how your Majesty will perform tonight. / Should I cover my ears if I come here in person? If I remember correctly, etiquette is what we need to learn most compared to physical filth..”
Then, after a slight pause, his eyebrows raised, Renly added, "Oh, by the way, I'm not interested in the sergeant's business proposal. You know, we also have standards..”
The attitude that is neither humble nor arrogant, neither quick nor slow, shows the magnanimity and calmness, and the elegance bursting out from the inside out, but like a copper wall, it fights back forcefully..
John, who seemed to be standing on the moral high ground, instead became embarrassed; while Renly, who seemed to be in danger and lost all face, showed an elegance befitting a nobleman..
But Matthew standing nearby knew that Renly's anger had exceeded the bottom line..
Before attending the dinner, they had anticipated conflicts and contradictions, but for Renly, he didn't care, and he didn't care. He didn't want to embarrass George and Elizabeth; of course, he didn't intend to cooperate with the performance. However, their methods It was still unexpected, and it once again refreshed Renly's cognitive bottom line..
Matthew's eyes fell deeply on George and Elizabeth, sharp and sharp. He paused slightly, and then looked at Renly, with a hint of sadness deep in his eyes..
Everyone is envious of the glamor of the aristocracy and upper class society, but in order to maintain this shell, the dirty methods behind it are not visible. What is even more sad is that even family ties have become a bargaining chip in the exchange of interests. Blue Li always likes to come back to London, but she can't find the warmth of home here..
Faced with Renly's frontal counterattack, John laughed angrily, "Ha, look at this guy, he's actually not inferior in words. If you really have pride in your bones, then you shouldn't go out and embarrass yourself; if you really do If you are upright, don't show off with your words..”
This storm is obviously not over yet.
