195 A strange combination of circumstances
Renly could feel George's sincerity and focus, and his devotion and paranoia were touching, but this did not mean that he would change his life style. When he should focus on his job as an actor, he would devote himself to it wholeheartedly; When he should participate in extreme sports such as surfing, skydiving, and rock climbing, he will devote himself wholeheartedly to enjoying life; of course, when the time comes, he is also willing to enter the recording studio again and try the difficult challenge of recording an entire album..
He could feel George's urgency, but he had no intention of changing his next plan, so he pointed to the figure standing in front of the bar, "I think Ed is pretty good, what do you think?" This is the truth, Ed - Sheeran is indeed an excellent music composer. He may be a little immature now, but his excellence is undeniable..
George was stunned, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but the words were already in his throat. Then he thought: Eddard did show great potential in the performance just now, but compared with Renly, Eddard is really too good. Too young. "How old are you this year?" George frowned slightly..
Renly laughed dumbly, "Is this important?" After saying that, Renly stood up and said politely, "Then I won't disturb your old friends' gathering. I hope you enjoy a wonderful night here." Then he said He turned around and left without any delay, leaving George and Stanley looking at each other..
Renly walked straight to the bar, looked at Eddard's slightly reserved back, walked to his side, and teased with a chuckle, "Are you worried about the legal drinking age in the United States? I thought as a British , you don’t care.” You have to be twenty-one to legally drink alcohol in the United States, but in the UK the official legal drinking age is six..
Ed picked up the beer in his hand and looked it over twice. Then he realized that he had only taken two sips. He couldn't help but laugh. However, when faced with the ridicule, he didn't know how to respond. He could only scratch his head and said awkwardly. Twitching the corner of his mouth.
“Someone is looking for you there." Renly pointed in the direction of Stanley and George, took a sip of the beer in front of him, and exhaled a long and comfortable breath..
“who? Ed turned his head and looked over, then looked at Renly with questions on his face, "What are they looking for me for?"?”
Renly shrugged, "You shouldn't ask me, you should ask them." He patted Ed on the shoulder, "Go over quickly and let others wait. This is not polite behavior..”
“Oh, oh oh." Ed was stunned for a moment, then reacted, put down the beer, and trotted over in a hurry.
“What does George want from you? Neil asked curiously while wiping the beer glass..
Renly's eyebrows slightly raised, "You know George?"?”
Neil's bright smile was the best answer, "How was it? What was the outcome of the discussion? Is your album finally going to be planned? Can we see your album in the record store?" There is no doubt that Niall is Renly's biggest supporter.
Renly took a slow sip of his beer, "I'm going to the Telluride Film Festival next week..”
His high expectations fell heavily, and Niall immediately let out a wailing sound of disappointment, "Oh!" He rolled his eyes speechlessly, staring at Renly with resentment and contempt on his face, but all of them bumped into that gentleman-like figure. Smiling and failing, Neil was really discouraged..
While they were chatting and laughing, Ed returned to the bar. His confused expression seemed like he hadn't figured out the situation yet. He walked over with slow steps, and his stumbling appearance made people worried - the speed of Ed's return. Much faster than expected, less than five minutes.
“Ed, how's it going? "Renly handed Eddard his glass of beer..
Ed took the beer in a daze, poured it into his mouth subconsciously, but couldn't stop at all. He drank the whole glass of beer in a slurp, put the glass heavily on the table, and let out a long breath. , the whole person became light-hearted. "Wow." He sighed softly, and then his emotions slowly boiled up. He couldn't help but sigh again, "Wow!" The look in his eyes slowly bloomed, and it seemed that the whole person Everything becomes alive.
“I...I just got a record deal! "Ed's expression was full of disbelief. The same words received different reactions. Niall glanced at Renly with a look of disgust, while Renly showed a big smile and took the initiative to say, " Congratulations”.
Ed finally came to his senses at this time, "I got the record contract!" He turned to look at Renly and said extremely excitedly, "George said that I can enter the recording studio next week, and while I was composing while recording, and completed the recording of the entire album according to my ideas..”
In fact, Ed started recording in 2005, when he was only fourteen years old. However, before that, it could only be regarded as a small effort, either singles or independent records. The published copies were very limited, but Unable to sell, it accumulated dust in the warehouse. Before coming to Los Angeles, he also signed with an independent record company, but the cooperation between the two parties was very bad. After he resolutely left that company, he chose to come to the United States to pursue his career. Chance.
Unexpectedly, he stayed in Los Angeles for more than three months and achieved nothing, but because of Renly's relationship, he unexpectedly came to New York. In just one week, he won his first recording contract - George said that he would take him with him next week. Enter the recording studio to complete the "top" recording, and then go to Warner Music to check out the situation. If nothing else happens, he should sign a contract with a label under Warner Music.
For Ed, this is definitely a leap in his music career, a completely new leap..
“ah! Ahhhh! " Eddard looked at Renly, wanting to express his inner joy, but couldn't find the right words. In the end, he could only scream with excitement, all the emotions turned into a simple onomatopoeia, double * * Changing ground and trampling on the ground, his wide eyes revealed a dazzling light, "Ah ah ah!”
The joyful mood also infected Renly, and he couldn't help but laugh too..
But Eddard still felt it was not enough, and couldn't control himself and shouted, "Renly! Renly! Renly!”
He never expected that his musical dream would change drastically because of an actor. If Renly hadn't called the convenience store that day, if he hadn't sang "Cleopatra" that day, if He didn't choose to go out and perform on the night of the Emmys...so, would none of this ever happen? So, where is his future??
“Haha." Renly laughed lightly and nodded repeatedly. Even he couldn't have guessed that Eddard's music career would actually start in the Pioneer Village..
However, taking a step back to think about it, Renly was a little unsure. He was a butterfly from the Amazon, destined to flap his wings to change history - otherwise his dream would have been impossible to realize, because There is no actor named "Renly Hall" in 2017; but where will the impact of his little butterfly on others go??
Renly was certain that Eddard had achieved success after all, a huge success; but what he didn't know was how Eddard succeeded. He could only be sure that Eddard should have found an opportunity in Los Angeles, but Now Ed's opportunity has happened in New York, in the pioneer village, so has Ed's future trajectory changed, and will it be different from the previous life?.
All this is unknown.
Renly was a little excited, but also a little nervous. Things were deviating from the original track step by step. What is certain is that there will be good things and bad things, but the unknown is the joy of life, isn't it??
“Thank you, thank you." Ed couldn't find a way to vent his joy. He didn't know what Renly was thinking. He only knew that Renly's invitation opened the door for him. Maybe they had just met; Maybe this is only their second meeting, but fate is so wonderful, isn't it? What's more, a song of "Cleopatra" and a song of "Ophelia" are enough for Ed. Became friends with Renly.
Eddard looked around and wanted to hug Renly, but this was not the British way of congratulations. In the end, he picked up the beer glass - and then he saw the beer glass that he had just drank. He felt embarrassed now. , Eddard and Renly looked at each other, and they both laughed..
“Neil, would you like another beer, please? "Ed handed over the beer glass, "Tonight is a good start, let's celebrate." But Neil showed a look of disgust and reluctantly refused to pour the wine. De didn't care and laughed heartily, "For the song 'Los Angeles'’?”
Only then did Neil smile, nodded, and took Ed's glass of wine, "For the sake of 'L.A.’.”
“Shouldn't it be for New York? "The drinker next to him heard this conversation and raised his voice. Then Neil and Ed both looked at Lu Li, "Yes, shouldn't it be for New York??”
Lu Li named the song "Los Angeles" just now. The main source of inspiration for the melody was the City of Angels. He shrugged, raised his beer glass, and shouted, "For London!" He is British, and even more so. Londoners, it's no secret in the pioneer villages either.
Such a joke made everyone burst into laughter instantly.
As the night grew darker, George Slender left, and Renly didn't stay too long. He celebrated with Eddard for a while, and went home before the Pioneer Village closed. He looked at the boxes piled up in the house, and It was exactly the same as when he left, still waiting for him to start taking care of it..
Tomorrow, we will organize it tomorrow. It is already too late today. Packing luggage and decorating a new home cannot be completed in ten or twenty minutes. This is a big project, so just wait..
Renly dragged his tired and sleepy body to the bathroom and took a bath. Then he lay down on the bed and fell into sleep. He did not recognize the bed or toss around, and fell asleep comfortably. Quiet, peaceful, A dreamless night. It's been a long time. It's been a long time. It's finally been able to sleep well again. He really still likes to sleep the most..
