Chapter 387: The Long Night (I)
In the empty theater, at 10:31 p.m., Jean was still waiting with his hands folded, and the theater had already left, and the first act of "Starry Night" was over.
Just now Jean has taken a brief look at the history of the Reed Theater, which was established 49 years ago, a man named Reed who was born into a family of theaters, resurrected this ancient method of interpretation, and now Reed has passed away, and his daughter Jaylene inherited the Reed Theater.
The repertoire tonight was not as annoying as Morse said, and the performance of the play was indeed exaggerated, but in Jean's eyes, the actors on the stage tonight performed very well, although exaggerated but affectionate, natural and elegant.
There are many well-known actors in the city, all of whom have performed in the theater, and the reason why Jean became interested in this theater is because 40 years ago, Mansa was one of the students of this theater, and stayed in the theater for 10 years before going out, and then became a well-known singer all the way with a slightly dramatic and slightly hoarse singing voice, and relied on the foundation in the theater to successfully enter the film industry, and was a great success.
And why Luke likes theater, Gene can't understand this, in the past 30 years of Luke's life, his friends and even relatives have not heard of it.
The stage was still lit with warm yellow lights, and the last staff member left after checking the stage for a while, the lights were still on and not extinguished, Jean exhaled a puff of smoke, and now the theater in the city can be counted on ten fingers, most people don't like this thing very much, and many people who want to be actors don't want to come to the theater as students, preferring to go to the filming site of the film company to play tricks.
Most of the theaters are overwhelmed and can only rely on a few classic plays to survive, Jean looked at "The Starry Night", the last performance was half a year ago, four consecutive nights in a total of four acts.
Jean has also seen the movie version and the TV series version of "Starry Night", which suffered a disaster when it was released 50 years ago, and it was not until nearly 20 years ago that it finally received the praise it deserved.
And Mansha is the protagonist of the movie version of "Starry Night", it is rumored that Mansa once had a love affair with Xingyuan, the author of "Starry Night", although in the previous investigation report, Xingyuan admitted this, but the two only had a short ambiguous relationship for a few months after the movie was released, and this Mansha stayed in the theater for more than 10 years, and also said that Mansha, as the top name in the theater at that time, unthankfully left the Reed Theater, caught the olive branch thrown by the music industry, and never came back.
All of this is linked to the Reed Theater, the first person to authorize the copyright of "Starry Night" in Xingyuan is Reed, and Section 2 is now staring at Mansha 24 hours a day, she still hasn't found out that she has been exposed, and Dawn has betrayed her.
Jean's expression was cold, his eyes were cold, but he was extremely angry in his heart, the last riot incident involved many innocent people, and this morning's bombing case involved innocent people again.
No matter what purpose and belief these guys have, in Jean's eyes, they are evil, evil that must be eradicated.
Knock knock
There was a knock on the door behind him, accompanied by the sound of wine glasses clashing, and Jean smelled a scent of flowers.
"Lady Jean, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
Jaylene changed into a very formal white dress, with a starry pattern, some small ornaments shining in the shimmer, and she also wore light makeup specifically for this outfit, her hair was also well combed, her long hair was scattered on both sides, with a smile in her eyes, she looked very dignified, and her fair arms were tearing the petals at the moment and putting them in the cup.
Jean bowed slightly, a gentleman's bow, and put his hat in front of him.
"Excuse me, Ms. Jaylin."
Jaylen's eyes were like autumn water, and her eyes were full of interest and femininity.
"First time we met, Lord Jean, I heard him say from my father's generation that Jean of Bright City is a man that women can't resist no matter what."
Jean smiled, extinguished the cigarette butt, and looked at Jaylin quietly, remembering that Reed used to be the most embarrassed, with some people, touring around the city, Jean only talked to Reed once, at that time Reed said that there will be people who like this thing, this is an important part of human civilization, and it cannot be lost, Reed was enthusiastic at the time, and he didn't feel that it was terrible to wander around the city's taverns every day.
A strange aroma wafted out, with pale pink petals floating on some yellowed liquor.
"It's my pleasure to have a drink with you, Master Jean."
Jaylin took the wine, Jean took it and took a sip, the taste was slightly bitter but not astringent, and the sweet aftertaste was in the mouth after entering the throat.
"This is the sake that my father used to brew himself, and it was made from real grain."
"Very good, Ms. Jaylin."
Jaylin sat across from Jean with a smile, her eyes not avoiding Jean's gaze at all, but looking at it with admiration.
God? It's just an ordinary person.
"Miss Jaylene, I'll be straight to the point, you ....... in the theater"
Jaylene pursed her lips and moved to Jean's side, pressing one hand to Gene's lips.
"I'm sorry Mr. Jean, I can call you that!"
Jaylin tilted her head and held her glass in her hand.
"It's rude, it's obvious that there is such a beautiful lady drinking with me."
Jean smiled, and their glasses clinked.
.......
"Yay......."
It was nearly 11 o'clock, Le Xiao happily returned to the comfortable Central Park cabin, lying comfortably on the bed, tonight's meeting was very relaxed, the bills put forward by several councillors were all killed, Le Xiao was happy for a while.
Especially the bill to set up special service centers in the lower districts, Le Xiao's teeth itched, and she wanted to climb up to the stage to question the councillor opposite.
And the most important thing is that you can rest early today, so that you can get up before 6 o'clock tomorrow morning, and there are a full seven hours, Le Xiao always felt that there was a lot of time before, although the day's work was hard, but at night the days were still very leisurely, nesting in the quilt to watch TV series and movies, and then sleeping, life is boundless.
But now Le Xiao understands that time is a luxury for her, and when she thinks that in the nearly 2 days, the total time to sleep is no more than 10 hours, and Le Xiao is exhausted.
Knock knock
"Who?"
Le Xiao muttered, and called up the influence information at the door, which turned out to be Xingyuan.
