2401 As before
A chair, a microphone, a light.
That's all.
Familiar scenes, familiar smells, even the light, shadow and dust floating in the air seem to still carry the familiar atmosphere settled by time. As time goes by, some things still maintain their original pure appearance, highlighting the differences between things and people. Core Mystery - It is people who change after all.
Low voices of chatter filled the pioneer village, and then someone walked onto the stage, carrying a guitar and a keyboard. He placed the keyboard in a familiar manner, plugged in the speakers, and aimed them. After finishing the work with the microphone, I adjusted the position of the guitar and sat down..
Adjusting the microphone, adjusting the sitting posture, and adjusting the strings, the series of movements appear very skillful, and you can even feel a faint sense of contentment. It seems that you are completely immersed in your own world, focused and devoted, just like a craftsman, pouring your heart and soul into it. in one's own craft.
The drinkers who were drinking and chatting inadvertently cast their eyes towards the stage, and the smiles among them slowly solidified at the corners of their mouths, turning into doubts, some surprised, some confused, some slow, some people looked at each other in confusion. They exchanged glances to find the answer. Some people stared intently at the figure on the stage, while others looked around for Stanley's figure trying to find an answer..
Of course, more people are still immersed in conversations and chatting, and then you can faintly feel that the atmosphere in the bar is changing subtly..
One after another, their eyes were cast towards the stage, and they couldn't help but fell into a similar situation again. No one understood what happened, and their heads were full of questions waiting for answers, and there was no time to express shock and surprise.：
Can anyone explain what is going on?？
Gradually, gradually, my attention calmed down, and then I felt relieved - did this need to be an accident? Is this surprising? Is this an accident?？
The answer...seems like maybe maybe maybe...should be no.
That's Renly Hall.
Renly, who just won the Best Actor for the second time in Cannes, Renly who continues to create history, write miracles, and break concepts, is the leading Renly in the world of cinema today... But it is this unique one. Renly, also from the pioneer village.
No one should forget and no one will forget Renly's past. Just over a year ago, the release of "The Ballad of Drunken Country" once again awakened people's memories of the pioneer village; so tonight, Renly's reappearance seems to be natural. By extension, no one should be surprised or surprised.
Everything is like this... Deja vu, from movie scenes into real life, from word-of-mouth rumors to a real plot unfolding before our eyes, that subtle, half-truth, half-false, dream-like quality makes it feel like... The pioneer village has also become magical, just like entering "Midnight in Paris" under the lens of Woody Allen - perhaps, this is New York at midnight, and the time of the golden age is slowly flowing, making people intoxicated and intoxicated..
“hey good evening.”
Renly's voice came from the microphone, with a slight smile on his face and a slight shrug, "I'm sorry to disturb your original plan. It is now close to midnight Eastern Time. As usual, tonight's The live performances are all over, and now it’s time for you to enjoy your time; but I shamelessly got a little privilege from Stanley to go on stage and enjoy a moment of spotlight..”
Of course this is a joke.
In fact, it was Stanley who took the initiative to invite Renly, asking if Renly would like to perform on stage and enjoy a moment of his own time..
Renly agreed..
“In fact, you can completely ignore my existence and continue to enjoy your night. Trust me, I will make myself blend into the background as much as possible. You don’t need to listen to my disease-free**. Just ignore it..”
Renly's relaxed and freehand expression made Niall whistle. Amidst the low laughter at the scene, Niall complained loudly, "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and perform." This made the customers laugh more and more cheerfully, and they urged one after another. The voices and jokes filled the pioneer village with a sense of relaxation and liveliness..
Just like countless nights in the Pioneer Village, nothing unexpected or special, the drinkers just relaxed and enjoyed the show..
“Shut up. Aren't you paying just to listen to my voice of self-pity? "Renly's crisp retort made the whole place burst into laughter.——
Is Renly complaining about some singers or artists "over-sharing their private lives"?？
This seems very, very interesting and worth digging into.
“I could ramble on here for thirty minutes, but obviously......”
“Please continue chattering." The shout from the stage interrupted Renly's words, and then the whole bar burst into laughter..
Renly didn't panic and raised his eyebrows, "Why didn't I know when the Pioneer Village started a one-man talk show night?？”
“Just for you! "There are still people shouting under the stage.
Amidst the roar of laughter, Renly showed a pinched expression, "But the regret is not just for you." Such a blunt response made the entire bar clapped their hands and laughed, and then Renly continued, "What's more important is that , I don’t want to. And this is my stage, so I guess you just have to endure it..”
The laughter can't stop at all.
Renly's tone was not that of a domineering one, but rather he was joking and joking with a hint of pride. That subtle difference gave the scene the quality of a stand-up show..
“Phew, very good, I'm ready to start singing now. Please note in advance that video recording is prohibited on site, otherwise I may walk off the stage at any time and issue a warning in the form of physical conflict. I think you don't want Pioneer Village to become the latest film 'Rocky' sequel filming location.”
Renly's easy-to-find sense of humor brought the atmosphere of the bar to a climax at midnight, and his tipsy state filled the atmosphere, making people intoxicated..
Turning around, Renly placed his hands on the keyboard, and the guitar hanging on his shoulders felt slightly heavy..
Renly hesitated.
Which song should he perform? "Drunk Country Folk" soundtrack? "Don Quixote"? Or maybe......
In fact, Renly wasn't sure what he was going to do. He didn't resist Stanley's request, so he nodded and agreed; but he didn't think about the specific reason or what he should do. Maybe he didn't think deeply about it. , it should be like the substitute stage back then：
Just enjoy it.
There is no need to think about so many reasons and reasons, and there is no need to worry about the meaning and form behind it, just relax...just enjoy it.
His muscles relaxed a little, and his fingertips landed on the black and white keys, and the tinkling cold notes flowed slowly under the goose-yellow spotlight..
Ding dong ding dong. ding dong ding dong.
The sound of the piano keys gently hits the heart, and strong emotions rise like curls of green smoke. The intricate and indescribable emotions hidden in the chest are transmitted to the notes through the strength of the fingertips, and the crystal clear melody symbols slowly flow out. Flap your wings and stop quietly.
Gradually, it became quiet, the kind of complete silence..
Outside the bar, the sound of vehicle engines and the noise of drunken shouts can still be captured; inside the bar, the sounds of whispered conversations and the hot and dull breath still remain... These messy and trivial sounds have not dissipated. , but it more and more reflects the quietness of the voice and breathing..
Slow down your breathing, hold your voice, and just calm down in the moving and graceful melody, quietly watching Renly in the spotlight of the stage, the lonely Renly.
Stanley's nose became sore inexplicably. He could sense Renly's daze and confusion, but he didn't know how to help. The only thing he could do was to wait for the pioneer village and stand there, like Sisyphus, over and over again. Pushing the stone that can never be pushed up.
Looking at Renly, time went back, as if he had returned to the distant past again. The young man with the bright smile was so pure and sincere. The brightness in his eyes made him envious and unable to suppress his yearning. He said , his name is Renly Hall, an actor.
“For a long time, it was just a fanaticism, with sweat all over the body and a rush to the brain..”
Renly spoke, his plain voice without any embellishment, but it vividly displayed the loss and confusion hidden deep in his soul.：
This is just a fanaticism, like a fever, chasing dreams with an innocent heart, venting everything in a sweat, impulse and enthusiasm occupying the brain, like an obsessed believer, sprinting regardless, but I was running, but I didn’t know what direction I was sprinting in. I just firmly believed in an illusory “faith”, but I chased him like a moth to the flame, like a jade stone..
One day, when the fever subsides and the passion dissipates, I look back and find that everything was just a dream. So what will happen?？
Dreams, do they really exist? Or, does it really make sense? What are you pursuing so hard all the time?？
Life, what is the meaning?？
That kind of confusion is confusion and struggle, and it is also the pain of self-doubt, self-denial, and self-loss, just like Nietzsche who fell into madness after thinking about the "meaning of self-existence".
When we begin to question our own existence, does this "self" really exist? Or is it that the existences we once thought were just illusions? More importantly, how should we verify it? How should we find the truth between illusion and reality?？
If you can't find it, will you be like Nietzsche and eventually bury yourself with your own hands?？
Stanley fell silent. He knew that he could not help Renly because he could not reach Renly's height at all. He could not even understand Renly's confusion. The only thing he could do was to stand firm and hold on to the pioneer village. Then tell Renly that his persistence has meaning and that's all..
But his eyes were still slightly warm, and his heart was trembling uncontrollably..
