Leaving domer's box, Maggie Smith's professional and devoted guidance and Ian McLean's happy laughter still linger in his ears. Involuntarily, the smile on the corner of the mouth rose up, although tired, although hard, now feel the whole person inside and outside are overdrawn, but the heart is satisfied.

Sure enough, returning to the west end is the right choice.

Every day, literally every day, is totally different from the situation, learning experience and dedicated performance. Even the most outstanding and top actor, he must always maintain a humble attitude, deal with different challenges and constantly enrich himself. Only continuous efforts and continuous progress, or the exposed shortcomings will only be more and more.

This is the most substantial and solid period since Lan Li's rebirth.

The real physical and mental fatigue, not only need to dedicate to the top performance on the stage, but also need to meet wave after wave of visitors, if you can, lanli now just want to lie in the hot spring, even a finger does not want to move; But at the same time, it's also a real baptism of body and mind. From the outside to the inside, from the inside to the outside, it's like refining into steel.

This is pain and happiness.

Tonight, George's appearance is really an accident; However, it just aroused a shallow ripple and quickly calmed down.

For Lan Li, besides the opposition and exclusion of the family, there are more important things to pay attention to. To return to the west end is not to prove myself to the family, but to constantly polish and perform basic skills. This original intention has never changed; After the waves and ups and downs of the premiere night, he felt the beating heart again.

So, unexpectedly, George Langley didn't give too much special treatment. Instead, Richard de Ville became the focus of the conversation. Although it's the first time we met, we must admit that Richard is a very professional audience, full of enthusiasm, profound knowledge and unique views. Compared with George, Richard really enjoyed the performance tonight, and Langley also focused more on the conversation with Richard.

Langley noticed George's abnormality and strangeness, as well as his anger.

Undeniably, there is still some happiness in my heart, a little joy, perhaps, this is the pleasure of revenge; But it just flashed by, and then I never thought of it again.

Suddenly, Langley began to realize that the views of George and Elizabeth were not as important as they thought. He has begun to learn to turn that page.

By this time, the boxes of the hall and Dunlop families were empty. Looking at the empty box, it seems that there is still a surging upsurge in the air. Lan Li's eyes show a shallow smile. Then he steps back to the backstage, ready to pack up and go home to have a rest.

Tomorrow, there will be a whole day's performance waiting.

It's not polite of Langley to refuse Richard's invitation.

Since the opening night, "les miserables" has been shown for 15 days, with 13 appearances. Every performance is filled with applause; Similarly, every performance is also highly anticipated, and the voice of looking forward to Langley's performance has never cooled down.

After discussion, the first lineup led by Lan Li has performed for 13 times without losing one. However, they are not made of iron after all, and they are flesh and blood after all. Continuous high-intensity performances put forward super high requirements for every actor. Even Tom Holland, a little flea, can't bear it, let alone other actors.

Tomorrow is Saturday, considering Sunday is a rest day, so this will be the last performance of the first cast in the first stage. After the performance on Saturday, the second team will take over the burden of the performance and start to perform on the stage next Monday; The first cast will be given a four-day break - plus Sunday, which is five days.

After the adjustment, the first team and the second team will enter the rotation stage. For example, Monday is the first line-up, then Tuesday is the second line-up, and so on, to ensure that the actors can get enough rest and adjustment, put into the performance in the best state, and offer the best performance.

In other words, the first stage of the Long March will come to an end tomorrow. Lanli needs to pay attention and can't relax in the sprint stage, otherwise he will fall short.

In the west end, it's really a show, and you can't slack off.

"Lan Li!" Step into the backstage, a figure suddenly stood up in the long theater corridor, the action is really some abrupt, especially in the corridor under the sparse light, it is really a little scary.

Lan Li's steps stopped a little. After reaction, he lost his smile. "There are many horror stories in the west side. Although I'm not afraid of supernatural phenomena, I'm not a ghost hunter." This self ridicule eased the tense atmosphere. The man in front of him laughed happily, and there was some embarrassment and shyness.

A dark gray short hair, slightly curled up; The mellow and honest face has a thick beard, sometimes mixed with a little gray beard, which adds a sense of vicissitudes; There is a black frame glasses on the top of the high nose. It looks a bit like a technical otaku. If it is matched with a slightly messy suit and shirt, and the tie is pulled away at will, then the otaku's temperament will be more obvious.

At a glance, it's hard to tell the age of the other person. It looks like he's middle-aged, but it's not clear whether he's fifty, fifty-five or forty-five. In particular, the face of that juvenile shyness and formality, even more young. The image of mark Ruffalo came to his mind, but it was not mark Ruffalo.

"I'm sorry, forgive me for being rude. Your assistant invited me to wait in the waiting room, but there was some noise inside, so I found a place outside. Then I saw you, so... "The middle-aged man realized that his dress was not very neat, so he quickly sorted it out, but it didn't seem to help.

Lan Li waved his hand and chuckled. "The waiting room is always very noisy. The young people's crew is always like this. I mean, including me." Lan Li came forward and stretched out his right hand. "Nice to meet you. How's your performance tonight?"

"Good, very good!" The middle-aged man also held Lan Li's right hand and nodded, "in fact, it's wonderful. I think now I finally understand why the actors always have a kind of obsession about the stage. I mean, European actors. " That's not very standard English, with a strong Spanish accent, rolling and snapping are particularly obvious.

"It's my pleasure." Lan Li expressed his politeness, "I always thought that as a director, the capture of performance is not your strong point; Obviously, today I need to change my fixed point of view

"Ha." The middle-aged man laughed happily, "no, no, I should have changed my mind. Er, it turns out that the power of performance can be so powerful, even breaking through the constraints of time and space. It's really hard to be a really good actor. Oh, oh, I'm sorry. I'm so rude, Alfonso cuaron. Nice to meet you. "

After a short talk, Alfonso realized that he had forgotten to introduce himself. This was his first meeting with lanli. It was really impolite.

But for Langley, the director is very familiar.

The United States is a country of immigrants, and Hollywood is a melting pot of multi-ethnic and multi-cultural. Mexico, which borders the United States, has always been an indispensable part of American culture.

Among them, the stories of the "three heroes of Mexico" in Hollywood are widely spread: Alfonso Caron, Alessandro Gonzalez inarito, Guillermo del Toro.

The three directors are similar in age, only one year apart from each other. They spend almost the same time in Hollywood, and they have made a breakthrough through their own strength.

Gilmore became famous as "blade Warrior 2" and "hell Baron". Later, he shot "Pan's Labyrinth" and "Pacific Rim" and became famous. His persistence in monsters has become the most unique scenery in Hollywood.

Alessandro established his career foundation with "love is a son of a bitch", "Tongtian tower" and "21k", and reached the peak in the two works of "Birdman" and "wild Hunter". His control of the camera is absolutely amazing.

As for Alfonso, he is a thorough technical controller. The two long shots in "the son of man" set off a reputation; "Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban" in charge of the director is one of the most outstanding films in the series, but the most mediocre at the box office; Later, he also photographed the "gravity" that surprised countless people.

Among Mexico's three best performers, Alessandro and Alfonso have won the best director Oscars and become famous all over the world. Gilmore has also successfully revived in 2017 with a "water story", which has really become the backbone of Hollywood.

As Langley said, he didn't expect Alfonso to appear in the Almeida theater, because Alfonso is a technology controller and doesn't pay much attention to the performance.

In the face of Alfonso's self introduction, Langley chuckled, "personally, I like the discussion of death in 'your mother is the same'. In Mexican culture, death is always special, right?"

"So is your mother," Alfonso's early work, which won an Oscar nomination for best original play, was co written by Alfonso and his brother - a bit like the relationship between Christopher Nolan and Jonathan Nolan; But on the whole, the work is not famous and many people have never heard of it.

Alfonso was surprised and opened his mouth slightly. "Have you ever seen 'your mother is the same'

"Yes, and I'm impressed." Lanli nodded in affirmation. "Are you coming to watch the play alone tonight? May I invite you to the waiting room? Or do you have company waiting for you? "

"No, No." Alfonso waved, then nodded. "I mean, can we sit down somewhere and have a good conversation?" Aware of lanli's confused vision, Alfonso added, "I have a work that I want to invite you to play."
