no venue.
“What does 'no venue' mean? Roy frowned, his eyes full of confusion and incomprehension, "This is New York, one of the cities with the highest concentration of performances in the world. Just above Manhattan, there are thousands of performance venues here. How is this possible? Will there be no venue??”
Andy, who was sitting directly opposite, was still smiling and shrugged lightly, "This is also one of the most densely populated cities in the world. There are thousands of venues and thousands of performances. Every day, this city is crowded with countless performances. Not only is land expensive, time is equally expensive, or even more expensive..”
In the final analysis, it is still a matter of time..
Only four hours have passed since the decision was made to hold the concert. In such a limited time, it is not easy to find a suitable venue and negotiate a suitable time. What's more, on the 11th The studio is originally an independent workshop, and its influence cannot be compared with that of top record companies..
As Renly himself said, the response and popularity brought by the album "Don Quixote" were actually just bubbles. They disappeared with the breeze. As an actor, Renly gradually occupied a place in North America and Europe; But as a singer, he is nothing. Even if Johnny Depp's own rock band wants to hold a concert, finding a venue is not an easy task..
New York is big, and so is the world.
Turning his head, Andy looked at Renly who was sitting aside, and continued to explain, "In fact, we found two venues, the size and price are suitable, and the time is not a problem..“
”However, one venue is in Queens, located at the junction of the Colombian, Italian and Irish gangs; the other venue is in Brooklyn, which was closed for rectification two months ago due to health issues. It just reopened last week, but the environment and conditions It’s really unsatisfactory.”
After saying that, Andy spread his hands and expressed his helplessness. The former was due to worrying public security issues, while the latter was due to serious environmental issues..
Nathan showed his confusion. He looked around questioningly and found that neither Roy nor Renly had any intention to speak. He couldn't help it anymore and took the initiative to raise his doubts, "Why not the second venue? Many Underground rock bands all perform in such venues, and they are even willing to perform on abandoned stages or next to garbage dumps..”
Roy rolled his eyes, "Because this is a concert for one person..”
“one person? "Nathan asked reflexively, but after he said it, he suddenly realized the next second, "Oh... I'm sorry, I forgot." He patted his head in annoyance, and then closed his mouth..
Heather Cross is still comatose in the hospital bed. This is for her concert. It is unknown what impact the bad environment will have on her condition; if it is serious, the hospital will not even Allow Heather to leave the hospital - even if she does wake up in time.
A temporary concert, with no venue requirements or even a specific date - just as soon as possible. Originally thought that this would be an extremely simple thing, but now they are racing against time, and the situation is far worse than they imagined. Even more complicated.
Andy cast an inquiring look at Renly, "We need time. Studio Eleven is doing its best to inquire. I also called George Slender just now, and he will help inquire next. But, We need time." Over and over again, the only solution to the problem is still time..
It's the only thing money can't buy.
Renly was silent and didn't speak..
The doctor said that even if Heather falls into a deep sleep, her condition will not be relieved and may even worsen. The doctor said that if she continues to fail to regain consciousness and has suffocation symptoms while in a coma, the situation will be unpredictable. The doctor also said that in the past, In three weeks, Heather's condition deteriorated far beyond imagination, going directly from the first stage to the second stage. There are too many unknowns in the future, and the existing medical conditions are still unable to do anything about the disease.……
Time, life and death, eternity. Topics that have never changed in human beings are still the same after tens of millions of years have passed..
Under the gazes of Andy, Roy and Nathan, Renly picked up the mobile phone on the table and started to make a call. Andy and Roy exchanged glances and asked each other, but neither of them knew what was going on..
……
Andre Hamilton opened his shirt and lay lazily on the beach chair. In his ears, he could hear the laughter of the models, the laughter of the sea, and the intoxicating blue of the Caribbean Sea. It is rippling gently, pushing the luxury private yacht every now and then, as pleasant as a lullaby. The sunset falls all over the sky, and the orange halo makes the whole world become magnificent and meandering..
In the cold February, he can always find the angle of the sun and enjoy a moment of tranquility.
The mobile phone on the small table vibrated. This was his private number, and only a handful of people knew it. He reached out and picked up the mobile phone, and after connecting it, he put it to his ear, "This is Andre, you'd better have A perfect reason to interrupt my wonderful vacation.”
“This is Renly, what's the reason?.”
A voice with a faint smile came from the other end of the phone, but it did not have the familiar ease and ease, but was tinged with a layer of fatigue. Andre stood up, left the noisy bow, and looked towards He walked toward the stern of the ship and said, "I guess I have no room for refusal..”
The space at the stern of the ship suddenly became quiet, and the gentle southeast wind blew the sails tied to the mast. The setting sun filled every corner of the sight unbridled, and the blue eyes were like broken crystals, spreading over the entire area. The sea is filled with sparkling waves and is breathtakingly beautiful..
After hanging up the phone, Andre put his hands on the railing and looked at the deep blue quietly, while thoughts were surging in his mind..
A concert venue must be located in New York, the environment must be safe, the conditions must be hygienic, and the time must be as soon as possible, the sooner the better. As for other things, there are no restrictions on the number of people, specific time, usage fees, etc..
This is Renly's request.
In Andre's impression, Renly seemed to be omnipotent. He knew that this was impossible and absurd. But, he did think so. No matter what he faced, any difficulties, In any difficult situation, Renly can always move forward unswervingly, brave the wind and waves, and move forward indomitably. This was the case before, and it is still the case now..
But today, Andre noticed Renly's vulnerability for the first time..
Renly concealed it very well, without any flaws, even better than most people in the aristocracy and upper class society. However, Andre knew Renly - even better than he thought, he You can feel that behind the understatement and calm tone, there is a trace of weakness hidden..
Powerless. Helpless. Helpless. What on earth could make Renly feel powerless??
However, Andre knew the reason why Renly contacted him.
As the owner of Dalmore Whiskey, Andre has been actively carrying out activities and operations in the United States over the past few years. The film industry is just the tip of the iceberg. In addition, they also work with governments, businesses, and charitable organizations. , social groups, etc., his influence is far more powerful than it seems..
Of course, the power of connections in Renly's hands is far more powerful than imagined. He has never used it, but it doesn't mean it doesn't exist..
Opening his phone again and looking through his address book, Andre's brain began to work quickly..
After just six or seven phone calls, and only thirty minutes of correspondence, Andre hung up the last call, edited a text message, pressed the send button, and then put the phone back in his pocket..
Raising my head, I looked at the calm and vast ocean in front of me. It was so vast, so vast, and so profound, as if it could contain the whole world. A gust of sea breeze came, mixed with the smell of sea water and the dryness of the sun, which made people intoxicated..
Andre stood up straight, returned to the bow of the ship, and shouted, "Guys, all come up, we are going back.".”
“God, Andre, you are crazy", "Our vacation has just begun, you are out of your mind", "What's going on, Andre, hey, give us an explanation"... Complaints, curses, It was continuous, one after another, but Andre didn't care at all. He turned around and walked straight towards the cockpit..
It's time to visit New York.
……
The apartment was still busy. Andy and Roy were mobilizing all their efforts to find a suitable venue as much as possible. Even Nathan was writing emails nearby to help contact more potential possibilities..
Amidst the noise, Renly's phone vibrated. It was a text message, which did not attract Andy and Roy's attention at all..
Renly opened his phone, browsed the text messages, and then raised his hand to signal the two people. Andy and Roy exchanged glances. Although they were confused, they ended the conversation as quickly as possible, "I will call you back right away." "Past", then hung up the phone, and all three people looked at Renly..
“The venue has been found. Contact Teddy and we will start publishing the concert announcement now." Renly ignored Andy and Roy's surprised faces, put his phone on the coffee table, showed it to the two people, and then stood up He got up and walked toward the bathroom, "I'll take a hot shower.".”
It's been a long day, a cold day, and now it's finally coming to an end..
The three people approached with questions on their heads, picked up the phone, and picked up the text message. Nathan blinked, his eyes full of confusion, "Andy, Roy, am I dazzled? Why do I feel , I seem to have read it wrong.”
Roy's face was also full of fright. Even a veteran like Andy was not immune. His smile froze on his mouth and finally turned into a bitter smile. "Jesus Christ, what on earth did we do?" He swallowed and added. He said, "To be more precise, Renly Hall, who is this guy?"?”
A brief message was displayed on the phone screen.:
“February 16, Thursday, 8pm sharp, Madison Square Garden, New York.”
