Chapter 88: city ​​of angels

Los Angeles, located on the sunny west coast of the United States, is the second largest city in the United States in terms of population, second only to New York. Surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the sea on the other side, coupled with the beautiful sunshine in four seasons, dryness and little rainfall, and a mild and pleasant climate, Los Angeles has also become a leisure resort surrounded by mountains and water.

​​

When Los Angeles was established as a town in 1781, the Spanish expedition who discovered it in order to open a church named it, \"The Town of the Virgin Mary, Queen of Angels", and later referred to as \"City of Angels".

​​

In the City of Angels, there are countless famous attractions, Kodak Theater, Disney Concert Hall,

​​

〖China〗The Chinese Theater, the Avenue of Stars... Of course, the most famous among them is the World Entertainment Center, Hollywood.

​​

The film's hot spot attracts millions of tourists every year and makes Los Angeles a world-famous entertainment city.

​​

This is the second time for Gu Luobei to come to Los Angeles. The last Eagle Rock Music Festival left a good memory. The second visit is still related to music, but it has little connection with Hollywood, which is famous for its movies. It is a strange thing. . When the plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport, Gu Luobei saw the so-called star battle.

​​

The flash baptism of as many as 40 or 50 reporters at the airport exit really has a powerful effect of blinding people. But these reporters didn't come here for Gu Luobei, an unknown person. Everyone found a bright and bright man appeared, and subconsciously aimed the cannon of the camera at this figure, but when they found out that it was an amateur, they all turned the camera in embarrassment. put it down.

​​

This strong contrast made Gu Luobei feel amused.

​​

Although some reporters recognized this rookie actor who made a big splash at the Sundance Film Festival and had a tongue-in-cheek huā at the opening ceremony of the "Sniper Phone Booth", at present, Gu Luobei's music and film works have not been officially released. It was normal that the reporters did not pay attention to Gu Luobei since it came out. In the entertainment industry, only if you are famous and have topics, you will pay attention. This is an iron rule. Don't say that Gu Luobei's work has not been published yet. If there is no topic or news after it is published, the reporter will not waste his film on Gu Luobei.

​​

As soon as I inquired about it, I knew that such a big battle at the airport was to meet Al Pacino, who was famous for his "Godfather" series, and won the Oscar for "Scent and Knowing a Woman". The older the more popular, the plays that have invited him to appear in recent years are definitely a considerable number. But last year and the year before, Al Pacino only had one movie released each, and the output of works can only be considered stable. This time, Al Pacino visited Los Angeles and heard that there were five scripts to be interviewed, so the reporters were moved by the news, and everyone was very curious as to which script this handsome and elegant lover would lock in in the end.

​​

Teddy Bell doesn't care much about these things, but is watching carefully how agents deal with reporters. His consciousness as an agent is developing now: Eden Hudson is calm. Appearance, standing next to Gu Luobei, his eyes are empty: while Gu Luobei looked around, he was still a little curious about Al Pacino, after all, \"Godfather" is still worth looking forward to. Judging by the way these reporters were eagerly waiting, it was probably not easy, so they gave up.

​​

During this trip to Los Angeles, Teddy Bell repeatedly emphasized that he must go with him, and for this reason he also missed a party on Friday. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Gu Luobei knew that Teddy Bell wanted to fight with him. And Eden-Hudson is better known as "vacation"

​​

It is said that a large contract was signed for Gu Luobei some time ago, and this trip was used as a substitute for the consultation fee of Gu Luobei's lawyer. Gu Luobei also knew very well that Eden-Hudson actually didn't want to miss the day when his album was released.

​​

Gu Luobei and his party left the airport without any congestion or blockage.

​​

But no one welcomes them, and no one sends a car to pick up the independent musicians. It really doesn't hurt. The last three people still took a convenient bus, and after only thirty minutes, they reached the city on their own.

​​

From Los Angeles to Hollywood, it takes 40 minutes by bus. The last time I came to the Eagle Rock Festival, I didn't have a good tour of downtown Los Angeles, and this time it was the same. Because of Sunday's performance, Gu Luobei had to come to the scene in advance for rehearsal.

​​

This kind of live performance, because of factors such as sound, microphone, stage, and live sound effects, must be rehearsed before the official performance, just to make the singer adapt to the situation on the spot.

​​

The so-called rehearsal is not simply a performance on the stage and it is over. It is a very serious process. In addition to allowing the singers to adapt to the stage and avoid unexpected situations: it is mainly to cooperate with on-site sound effects, lighting, etc. The staff need to understand the progress of the stage, and then arrange the sound and lighting according to the stage conditions. Therefore, the rehearsal is an act in which the singer and the scene adapt to each other.

​​

Of course, many big-name singers use avatars during rehearsal. They don't need to go to battle in person, they will have avatars to complete the rehearsal work. However, in Gu Luobei's opinion, even if he is qualified to use a stand-in, he will not use it, because he thinks that rehearsal is an actor's responsible behavior for his own stage, perhaps because the main actors of the Broadway rehearsal have to personally The reason for the battle. Of course, the current Gu Luobei, the stand-in is naturally empty talk, he must be present in person.

​​

The Hollywood Bowl on Highland Avenue is not an ordinary theater. It has not only hosted top singers such as the Beatles and Frank Sinatra, but is also a royal venue for many symphony orchestras to perform in the open air. Only because of the shell-shaped dome roof design is considered one of the best acoustic architectural designs, and it is also one of the top three amphitheaters in the United States.

​​

This time at the Hollywood Bowl, the "Easter Concert" was very lively. This April 1st is not only the April Fool's Day in Western folk tradition, but also Easter to commemorate the resurrection of Jesus. According to Sean Mayer, this concert was organized by the student union of the University of California, Los Angeles, and invited all new singers, even many local independent singers.

​​

When Gu Luobei arrived at Highland Avenue, he finally saw Sean Mayer in the last row of the row of wooden benches. Although the two have been friends for a long time through Yu Pie and telephone, and even Gu Luobei's first single was released by Sean Mayer, in fact, the two geniuses met for the first time.

​​

Although they have never met or even seen photos, Gu Luobei recognized Sean-Mayer at a glance. With the baby face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, the blond hair like a bird's nest, and the smile hanging on his face all the time, Gu Luobei's ears already echoed the hearty laughter of Sean Mayer.

​​

,\"Dear Bell, you have finally appeared." Gu Luobei's photo can be easily seen by searching the Internet. Shann-Mayer recognized Gu Luobei at once and greeted him accurately." \"If you are late, you will miss today's rehearsal. I have to reschedule tomorrow, and I will definitely be busy. "The reason why Gu Luobei came over on Friday afternoon was to rush over for the rehearsal. On Saturday, the stage needed to be tidied up and decorated, and some singers who came late had to rehearse, so they must be in a hurry, and it would be much more convenient a day earlier.

​​

Shane-Mayer is not restrained at all, and has a somewhat familiar demeanor, and Gu Luobei doesn't mind. After all, the two have talked a lot before, and not meeting each other does not mean that they have no friendship. Seeing Sean-Mayer open his arms and hug him, Gu Luobei also naturally gave a hug to this 28-year-old man who looked like he was 18 years old.

​​

,\"You booked me the air ticket this morning. If I come in a hurry, I will definitely be able to catch up with the rehearsal, okay?" Gu Luobei's rebuttal, Sean-Mayer paused after hearing this. Suddenly, I was enlightened."\"That's true." Gu Luobei couldn't help laughing."\"Teddy Bell, Eden Hudson." Gu Luobei introduced the two parties with a smile on his face. .

​​

Sean-Mayer greeted with a warm look on his face, and ended up hitting a nail in Eden-Hudson, the iceberg face didn't even give a look, he didn't have an opinion on anyone, but The same is true for all strangers who meet for the first time. When Gu Luobei entered the dormitory, he had already come to the Arctic ice cave by himself. However, Sean-Mayer belongs to the type with super self-healing ability, and then shook hands with Teddy-Bell with a smile.

​​

Gu Luobei, who was on the side, looked at Sean Mayer who was unharmed in the face of Eden-Hudson's air-conditioning attack. After meeting for less than two minutes, he concluded that Sean Mayer should be a cockroach. Or a thick-skinned elephant? At this time, Gu Luobei saw Sean-Mayer enthusiastically pulling Eden-Hudson forward. Before this hand touched the iceberg, he suffered from Eden-Hudson's sub-zero temperature. One, but Sean-Mayer still did not consciously tug at Eden Hudson, and said with a smile, "\"Let's go and sit in front, Bell's rehearsal time is 5:30, and there are still More than 20 minutes~www.wuxiahere.com~ Gu Luobei looked back and looked at Eden Hudson, who was puzzled, and then looked at Sean who was chatting and laughing with Teddy Bell and walking forward. As Mayer, Gu Luobei determined that he was a cockroach.

​​

Seeing Eden-Hudson's rare failure, Gu Luobei was very gloating."\"Don't worry, Mayer will not use force against you, at most it will turn your iceberg into a volcano. "Speaking of this, Gu Luobei is still holding his chin and pondering."\"Apart from gossip, I have never seen you get angry, it is worth looking forward to."

​​

However, Eden-Hudson gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence "\" Don't expect, if you want to experience it, I will accompany you at any time! "As soon as Gu Luobei turned around, he saw Eden-Hudson's flaming eyes, the alarm bell rang in his heart, and he immediately stepped forward."\"Wait for me, wait."
