2304 cultural differences
Xixisuosuo.
Gudu Gudu.
Blah blah blah.
These are the sounds that are constantly surging on the tarmac. It is difficult for Renly to find an accurate word to describe them. They are just mixed with the warm sea breeze. Such a unique sight is definitely something Renly has never seen before. , lightness and happiness unknowingly climbed up the curve of the corners of the mouth.
The people around Renly didn't seem to dare to come forward easily. They were a little reserved, a little shy, and a little uneasy, and secretly cast their glances at him. But behind those simple smiles and bright eyes, there was excitement that couldn't be hidden. Renly was surrounded by such a bustling crowd..
In the past, when meeting ardent fans, the place was always packed, and it might even cause crowding and stampede accidents. This was what Renly was most worried about; today's warm welcome was a different scene, those enthusiastic and excited but also vaguely... A little reserved and restrained, he politely kept a little distance and did not rush forward rashly, allowing Renly to move freely within a safe range, but he was surrounded by heat waves..
This... is definitely an unprecedented experience.
Renly couldn't help but chuckle, raised his head and looked into the distance. The endless crowds of people stretched all the way towards the terminal. Then he could vaguely see the sea of people inside the terminal, feverishly and restlessly. He kept shouting, and although he couldn't catch the sound due to a layer of glass and a long distance, he could still tell the surging madness with his excited body language, and he was trying his best to express his welcome..
He never expected that he would be able to create such a wave of enthusiasm in the Maldives.
In the past, all the impressions of this island country were of the sea, beaches, and romantic honeymoon resorts. By the way, there were also serious internal struggles at the top. If I remember correctly, the former president was charged with illegal detention. The judge of the court was sentenced, and later the vice president robbed the president's private speedboat in order to assassinate the president... Wait, those sensational incidents seemed to have happened in 2015, because after that, the Maldives regime/power It's been in turmoil.
So, President Yameen should be absent today just to deal with those things? This also further shows that if those things had not happened, the president would have really been prepared to come to pick him up at the airport.？
The disturbing thoughts in his mind flashed away, and Renly focused again on the grand occasion in front of him. Even though Renly was as well-informed as he was, he had to admit that this was the first time he had faced situation, especially what happens next——
Because everyone always kept a polite distance, it made Renly a little embarrassed. He always felt like he was someone who came to investigate the public sentiment, and then the cameras and cameras were waiting for the best opportunity to take pictures, but the problem was , he was not, and there were no cameras around, so Renly prepared to express his gratitude and took the initiative to interact..
As a result, the crowd around them was like two poles of a magnet repelling each other, automatically taking a small step back. Moreover, because the crowd behind them was too dense and solid, they spread a little to both sides, rolling up like waves. The entire crowd began to surge, accompanied by a slight restlessness, as if the uncontrollable excitement was leaking out..
this......
Could it be that I was disliked?？
Renly was a little panicked.
“Hahahaha." Mendelson laughed mercilessly, "You actually have such a moment." Seeing Renly's slightly stiff and confused look, Mendelson simply couldn't stop, and even He patted Renly's back comfortingly, seeming to express his sympathy, but in fact, the smile he couldn't help but told another story..
Not to mention Mendelson, even Max and Felicity couldn't help but laugh, because of Renly's reaction and the strange scene..
Renly cast a helpless look at Mendelson: To be honest, he really didn't know how to deal with it. Should he greet him politely and then leave?？
In the end, it was the mayor, Mr. Hasib, who solved the problem for Renly, "Mr. Renly, you just need to put your hands together to express greetings, and then sign for them. Of course, the premise is that you have enough time..”
Although Hasheber did not explain further, Renly quickly realized that it should still be a religious and cultural issue: European and American handshakes and hugs should not apply here, and they must keep an appropriate distance, otherwise they may be offended. to the other party’s cultural beliefs, etc..
In fact, every country in Asia has its own religion, culture and beliefs. Even with the fanaticism of popular culture, they still have their own rules that they need to abide by. In the past, when Renly went to Singapore, Japan, South Korea and other places to promote, he was also exposed to the same A similar situation, but he has never visited India, the Middle East and other places, and lacks understanding of the culture here, which is why the confused scene just occurred..
After realizing this, Renly finally reacted: among the people picking up the airport, the front row was still dominated by men, and there were obviously not many women. They were all standing in the second or third row, always standing in the second row. Keeping his distance, even when he looked at Renly, his eyes were slightly reserved and a little shy..
“I'm sorry, please forgive me for being rude." Renly expressed his apology sincerely - if it was a movie promotion, the publicist would inform the relevant etiquette and customs in advance to avoid offending taboos; but it was obviously not the case today, and the crew did not Anticipating such a grand scene at the airport, McGatlin also looked panicked, and this was a small mistake..
Hasib made a gesture of returning the gift with a smile, without being polite, but politely accepted Renly's apology, and then continued, "This is our honor to have a distinguished guest, and we sincerely hope you can enjoy it." Great time working in the Maldives and looking forward to visiting again in the future. We really welcome you..”
“It's my pleasure." So, Renly also imitated Hasheb's movements, first responded, and then gestured to the crowd in front of him one by one..
Sure enough, we didn’t encounter any more problems this time..
The crowd in front of them also responded with traditional gestures, and the faces became vivid and looming, hidden in the scorching heat waves, and slowly outlined a splendor and color comparable to a rainbow. With this A simple but sincere way to express welcome.
Others in the crew followed suit and expressed greetings with traditional gestures..
Renly's eyes caught the two young men standing in the crowd, ready to move. Although they did not speak, the excitement and excitement in their eyes were not concealed at all. They seemed to be ready to step forward; but this time Renly did not make his own decision, but moved towards Hahibo looked away. After receiving Hahibo's approval, he gestured with his head to the two young men..
After being recognized, the two young men jumped out from the crowd and stood in front of Renly like little fleas, beating continuously - this was the look of enthusiastic fans that Renly was familiar with, which made him Can't help but chuckle.
Renly never expected that one day he would miss those fanatical fans. Wasn't he resisting and worrying all the time?？
Thoughts were just thoughts, Renly still showed a smile, asked their names, and then signed each of their support cards, "Thank you for liking the movie..”
Felicity, who was standing behind Renly, raised her head and glanced at her friend. She noticed Renly's words: It's not a thank you for liking my movie, it's just a simple "movie". The subtle difference can explain more. Many things.
“Master Renly, we all love 'Crackling Drummer' very, very much. God, I never knew that a movie could be shot like this, or that artistic pursuits could be interpreted in this way." One of the young people, who looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, said in a tone of voice He said excitedly, seeming to be out of breath because he was so excited.
Renly laughed happily, "Everyone can have their own interpretation. This is the best part of art..”
“Uh- huh. Uh-huh." The two young people nodded like crazy, and the excitement between their eyebrows couldn't be suppressed at all..
When Renly finished signing and was about to leave, the voice that became shrill with excitement came from behind again, "I wish you good luck at the Oscars.".”
Renly's smile blossomed, and he turned around and responded, "I hope your blessing will bring good luck." This immediately made the two young people scream, which was particularly loud and even a little harsh among the buzzing. , and then you can see that everyone around you has turned their attention..
The scene is rather joyful.
“The crew of "Rogue One" followed Renly all the way, and it took nearly thirty minutes before they left the dense siege of the crowd, but Hasheber was still with him, escorting Renly and his party to the scene. Next to the shuttle bus, watching them get on the shuttle bus and go to another tarmac——
The crew also needed to change planes to reach the real filming location. They only had a short transfer at Male Airport, but they did not expect to receive such a grand welcome. This is definitely a rare sight..
“Dear Mr. Renly, are you sure you won't stay in Male for a while? "The lively airport pick-up crowd was left behind, and Hasheb was still waiting beside Renly with a smile on his face. He asked with a smile, "If you are willing, I can serve as a guide and lead you to visit the scenery of Male. I know, this is not London or New York, but Male still has its own culture and scenery, and distinguished guests are always welcome..”
“Thank you very much for the invitation." Renly nodded politely, "We can only make a short stopover in Male, which is also a pity for us. Believe me, we can feel the enthusiasm and sincerity of this land. If we have the opportunity If so, we would be more than happy to stay. But unfortunately we still have jobs.”
“Got it, got it! "Hasib nodded in agreement, "I hope that when I finish my work and leave, I will have the opportunity to visit my mansion. I will open my arms to express my warm welcome..”
