After leaving Cannes, Hugo made a surprise trip to Cologne instead of Paris and then a flight back to Los Angeles, as the reporters had expected.

Of course, Hugo was still not in the spotlight in Europe at this time, so no one noticed his sudden change of itinerary.

Hugo went to Cologne to attend the annual Rock 'n' Roll Festival at the Nürburgring. am。 ring)。

The Circuit Rock Festival is arguably the largest rock festival in Germany, Europe and the world, having been held since l985. The first festival was held every year to celebrate the completion of the Nürburgring, which attracted more than 75,000 spectators. Nurburgring is actually a compound word, Nurburg is the local place name, Ring is the meaning of the track, and the Nürburgring itself is the meaning of a Nürburg circuit. So, the rock festival at the Nürburgring is written "rock." am。 rin9", the last "rin9" represents the Nürburgring circuit where the event is held, so although it is not accurate to translate it as "circuit rock festival", the meaning is basically clear.

The reason why the Circuit Rock Festival is the largest rock music festival in the world is not only because of the largest audience, but also because of the gathering of top singers, and its influence around the world is not small. In terms of size, attendance, and influence, the Circuit Rock Festival far exceeds the Junjie Music Festival that was attended before the glory to death.

However, this year, Glory to Death did not receive an invitation to the Circuit Rock Festival, and it was the Pumpkin Band that stood on the stage on behalf of American rock, which is not a pity for Honor to Death, because they must also put more energy into this national tour.

This year is the eighth edition of the Circuit Rock Festival, which lasted for three days from May 20 to 22, and when the glorious teammates learned that Hugo was about to attend the Cannes Film Festival, they were all crazy, because the Cannes Film Festival was held from May 12 to 22, and the time coincided with the Circuit Rock Festival, which means that after Hugo participated in the film festival, he could go directly to the Nürburgring to participate in this carnival.

In fact, Hugo left Cannes ahead of schedule and rushed to the Nürburgring to join the rock and roll ocean this time, and Samora, who was able to accompany him, was almost happy, he was even more excited than Hugo, and Joseph looked helpless, "Are you happy because of the German pig's trotters, or are you happy because of the rock band?"

Samora hesitated and said, "Can't I choose them all?"

This year's Circuit Rock Festival was truly a grand event, with 100,000 spectators jumping wildly on the scene, and the lineup of guests was unanimously praised.

Aerosmith and Pumpkin are representative bands in the United States; Peter Gaibriel from the United Kingdom. Gabriel was not only the leader of the smash hit Sword Century band (Genesis) in the 70s, but also gained a lot of love for his flamboyant and dramatic style after flying solo.

Although the Norwegian and Swedish rap metal band Clawfinger was just formed last year, they are also experimenters with new metal music, just like Glory to Death, they have integrated rap with metal rock, with a strong European music style of clean and pure, heavy guitar with mature rap, which makes people stunning. In a way, they can be said to have overcome glory to death to qualify for this year's performance.

Known as the godmother of German punk, Nina Hagen (Nina. Hagen's first appearance at the Nürburgring can be said to be a dream moment for German fans, and her musical styles include alternative rock, new wave, and post-punk, which have played a significant role in the development of German rock music as a whole.

There is also a rap metal band also from the United States, who violently resists the machine qì (rage. against。 the。 mae), the band formed in 1992 is one of the first pioneers to try new metal rock, they have tried alternative metal, alternative pop rock, heavy metal, rap metal and other genres, they are famous in the Los Angeles underground rock circle, the first album of the same name released in 1992 has caused countless discussions with pride, including Fokine's previous band New Day, as well as Neil, Pedro and others, in fact, are more or less influenced by this band, So when Hugo systematically proposed the new metal rock, although it was still shocking, the band members quickly accepted it. It can be said that the embryonic role of the violent resistance machine qì band cannot be ignored.

With Aerosmith and Pumpkin Crumble, Violent Resistance Machine, and Fingerclaw, it's no surprise that Glory to Death, which has been gaining momentum lately, has not received an invitation to the Tracks Rock Festival. This is a vibrant and rebellious world where rock and roll, powerful bands are always on the rise.

When Hugo, Samora, and Joseph arrived at the Nürburgring on the afternoon of the 20th, they were unrecognizable, and the fans here came to the Nürburgring as if they had come on a pilgrimage, with great reverence, and then threw all the shackles of life behind and threw themselves into the carnival of music.

At least, for those three days, it's a world of music, a world of pure and simple.

Although Hugo missed the grandeur of the opening on the morning of the 20th, it was a land that could ignite enthusiasm at any time, and it only took thirty seconds to stand in the surging crowd and feel the blood in his veins gurgling, as if there were 10,000 lions roaring in his body.

Hugo couldn't help but yearn for the moment when he stood on the stage of the Circuit Rock Festival in glory to death, and the energy generated by the 100,000 spectators shaking and jumping at the same time was like a small earthquake, shaking the music world to the ground, and the heart was happy.

When the carnival reaches its extreme, the brain goes blank, and Hugo thinks of the Woodstock Festival, where half a million spectators gathered on August 15, l969, to sing and dance in the mud after the rain, bathe in the river and practice "doing" on the grass. Love does not fight...... What a spectacle that would be.

500,000 people, even with all the experience and wisdom of their brains, cannot depict the grand occasion of that year. That's the charm of rock 'n' roll!

The Circuit Rock Festival is actually a 24-hour non-stop world, even after the invited singer bands finish their performances, the stage will not turn off the lights, some underground bands will come to the stage to perform, even if there are no performers, the sound will play a loop of blood-boiling rock, even the rock lovers on the grass will tear their throats and laugh, shout, and sing.

Even if you hide in a tent, in the toilet, or in your sleep, you can't find a moment of "peace". But this kind of noise makes people happy.

So, when the evening of the twenty-two. After Harvey Weinstein called Joseph and conveyed the meaning of the Cannes Film Festival, even Joseph was reluctant to leave.

The Cannes Film Festival is inviting the "vulgar" crew to return to Cannes, because after the publicity, the crew will basically leave Cannes, if the film wins the award at the closing ceremony, it will be reduced to the dilemma of no one to accept the award, in order to avoid this situation, Cannes will invite the winning crew back after the jury votes.

Therefore, when the organizing committee of the Cannes Film Festival invites the crew that has left to come back, it usually means that the crew has won the award.

But after the reporters gradually figured out this situation, the reporters would ask around the airports of major European cities the day before the closing ceremony, whether the crew of a certain production had returned to Cannes, so as to try to break the news of the final award-winning work.

In order to cope with this situation, the organizing committee of the Cannes Film Festival has also learned wisely, and they will keep the list of award presenters secret for the time being, and will not be announced until the closing ceremony; At the same time, there are many awards at the awards ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival, and the organizing committee sometimes summons some small award winners back - it would be harmless if the winners did not attend, but the organizing committee used them as smoke bombs to find them, and they won the award anyway.

It's as if the Cannes Film Festival has summoned the "vulgar" crew back, Hugo may be the guest of honor, he may be the winner of the best actor, he may be empty-handed, it may be that the "vulgar" whole crew has won a small award - it is none of Hugo's business, but he is still called back as a member of the crew.

However, even with such smoke bombs, reporters will still have some speculation about the crews summoned back on the day of the closing ceremony, and there must be a reason why these crews will be called back, and the most likely is the Palme d'Or winners. After all, no one wants to see the Palme d'Or awarded without a winner.

Despite his reluctance, Joseph conveyed to Hugo the meaning of the Cannes Film Festival, which made Hugo very depressed, and he felt for the first time that the Cannes Film Festival and the Circuit Rock Festival ended on the 23rd, which was really torturous.

However, Hugo also knows that if the historical trajectory develops, "vulgarity" will win the Palme d'Or, although this is an honor that belongs to the Weinstein brothers and Quentin, and nothing has happened to him, but he is also a member of the crew, and it is not good not to show up. In desperation, Hugo could only choose to return to Cannes.

It's a real disappointment, because I missed the opening of the Circuit Rock Festival because I attended the premiere of "Money Empire", and now I miss the closing because I have to attend the awards ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival, as if I was choked by the neck when I was halfway through.

But that's life. Hugo could only sigh, and then waited until the afternoon of the 22nd before leaving the Nürburgring and rushing to Cologne to board a plane, hoping to arrive at the scene at the last minute before the award ceremony was unveiled.
