People always do this, eager to know the future, but fear the future.

If you know in advance that the result is doomed to failure, how many people are willing to continue trying? If it has long been understood that hard work is destined to be futile, then how many people would like to be meaningless? The answer is-very few.

More often, most people tend to be bound by the so-called future, because of fear of failure, because of rejection of wastedness, and because of utilitarianism, they eventually choose to stay back or change their course. However, Lan Li is not "most people".

He will not choose to give up before trying, he will not choose to back down before trying. If he is afraid of failure, he will make a different choice at the very beginning. He can choose a easier and simpler path according to the family's plan. But he still chose this path.

The charm of the future lies in the unknown, which can be to follow history or to change history. The result will be known only after personal hard work.

The results of the eighty-third Oscar awards still follow the historical trajectory, and have not changed because of the appearance of the little butterfly, Lan Li. For Lan Li, this result is trivial.

Looking at Rooney in front of him, Lan Li chuckled and teased, "So you left, because the'social network' lost?" Lan Li's mood was not affected at all, there was no disappointment, and no regrets.

Rooney's gaze fell on the corner of Lan Li's mouth, and she involuntarily followed up with it, and asked, "What do you think?"

"Sorry, forgive me for my impoliteness. I have forgotten that the object of our discussion is Oscar." Lan Li did not answer directly, but mocked himself in a relaxed posture, but the calm tone, no matter how you listened , All seemed to be satirizing Oscar's immutability and decay-exactly the same as Rooney's words just now.

Rooney laughed out loud after a chuckle, which made Lan Li's eyebrows lightly raised, and her eyes showed incomprehension and confusion.

Although Lan Li's words just now were quite humorous, it was not enough to make people laugh. Rooney's reaction was really...too much.

Rooney turned her head to avoid her smile being too disrespectful and offensive to Lanly, but she kept shrugging her shoulders without any cover. After a little control, the laughter calmed down a little, and she turned her head again, but her eyes still remained. With a bright smile, the whole face softened, "Sorry, I wasn't very focused just now. To be honest, your head is very eye-catching now, and it is trying to grab all the attention."

Lan Li raised his eyes and looked up. Although he couldn't see his head, the feeling of chill was not discounted. He reminded him: The night wind is quite strong, be careful of catching cold.

Lan Li's mouth couldn't help but gently squeezed. He raised his right hand and touched his forehead twice. The furry and sharp strange touch made his eyebrows rise slightly. It can be seen that he is also adapting to this earth-shaking change.

This simple action, combined with the small expression on Lan Li's eyebrows and mouth corners, made Rooney's smile greatly twitched again.

Lan Li in front of me is so familiar, yet so unfamiliar. The cold blue moonlight falls on her shoulders, her cheeks have a smile that hasn’t faded, but she hides behind her, but... but with a touch of sorrow and loneliness. The lonely blankness settled between the eyebrows, and even the moonlight became soft.

Rouni vaguely understood what this bald head meant.

"So, do you really don't care about the Oscar statuette?" Rooney had her own guess deep in her heart, but she still asked, staring at the man in front of her, paused for a moment, and then showed amusement. Smile, "Or, you know the result will not change even if you attend, so you deliberately chose not to go, so that at least from the perspective of propaganda, you can be invincible."

Straightforward, sharp, sharp, even with a little offensive power. No one can forget that just a few days ago, reporters were still condemning Lan Li for hype. Everything was a hype trap, which in turn triggered a frenzy of public opinion; but now, Rooney is in her own way, This question was thrown out again, without covering up.

Lan Li was not irritated, but shrugged with a smile, not to mention explaining, he didn't even plan to respond.

Such a calm posture seemed to be dismissive at all, which made Rooney a little helpless.

However, Rooney wasn't a personality that gave up easily. She didn't ask any questions. She just met Lan Li's gaze seriously. The tenacious gaze fell on Lan Li motionlessly, putting on a picture of "Unavailable The answer will not give up easily.

Lan Li laughed blankly, "If I say, I really want to attend the Oscars, do you believe it?"

Rooney's eyebrows raised slightly, obviously not convinced.

But Lan Li shrugged again and said with a smile, "I mean it." Rooney was completely taken aback by this answer. She could hear that Lan Li was not joking.

Without pause, Lan Li immediately said, "It's just that there just happened to be something more important."

An understatement, without any unnecessary modification, simple and clear, but like Hong Zhong, it blasted in Rooney's ears, deafening, the stirring of the soul and the tsunami of thoughts continued.

At the Kodak Theater tonight, Rooney never found a sense of belonging, always felt that she was out of place, and eventually fled.

She thought it was because she resisted being put on a commercial label. She thought it was because the Oscar was no longer a pure film event. She thought it was because the awarding of the statuette was no longer a contest of strength but a game of public relations... But the facts are However, this is not the case-to be more precise, it is indeed because of this, but not because of it.

The important thing is never the Oscar itself, but how to appear above the Oscar.

If it is a top old drama player such as Meryl Streep and Daniel Day Lewis, they have dedicated wonderful performances, walked on the red carpet of Oscars, welcomed their own praise, reaped their own affirmation, and enjoyed Oscar is the grandest, most authoritative and grandest stage in the world.

If it is an idol vase such as Kim Kardashian and Robert Pattinson, there may not even be a performance work. It appears at the Oscars ceremony just for exposure, like a beautifully packaged gift box, presented in the spotlight. Under the circumstances, the price is up for sale, so even if it is not an Oscar, any other awards ceremony is equally dull.

What Rooney resisted was not Oscar, but herself.

Because in the work of "Social Network", her performance is really not outstanding, not to mention the nomination, not even the vase, so the attendance tonight will be reduced to a complete reality show. The naked/naked eyes make her look like a cheap commodity; but if next time, she dedicated a top performance and received a nomination, then she will appear in the Kodak Theater with a brazen attitude and accept her own applause.

It's like Lan Li.

Performance, everything is related to performance.

The performance of "Buried alive" was already outstanding enough. Lan Li could walk upright on the stage of the Oscars awards ceremony, bathed in the baptism of the spotlight, but Lan Li was absent, just because of the performance of "I am anti-cancer". More important. It originated from performance, ended in performance, changed from performance, and returned to performance. All of them are only closely related to the performance.

Oscars are very important. Performance is more important.

Rooney suddenly understood the reason for Lanly's absence, and also understood the reason for her escape. The whole world suddenly became bright, and the hunting wind in Seattle late at night seemed to no longer be fierce, but became graceful and agitated.

Once again, her gaze fell on Lan Li's bald head, thoughtfully, with a bright light flowing through her eyes, and that joy, like the wings of a butterfly flapping to fly, gently flapped.

"I believe that you made the right choice." A smile appeared on Rooney's face, not ostentatious, but very firm. All the irritability and glitz gradually settled~www.novelhall.com~Double My feet finally felt the reality of being down to earth again.

"Haha." A low smile filled Lan Li's chest, like the melody of a cello and bass drum. "The reporters don't necessarily agree with you."

"The point is, do you care?" Rooney said without any pause, looking at Lan Li with a faint smile.

Although it was a question, the tone was very positive. The determined eyes fell on Lan Li's face, with a trace of scorching temperature, and then she saw the smile at the corner of Lan Li's mouth like the rising dawn, one by one. The ground rose and bloomed, beautifully.

Even if there is no sound, Rooney knows that her answer is correct. The problem before is, this time too.

Looking up, the black night sky of Seattle was covered with countless stars, as if overturning the star-filled bamboo basket, all over the sky. This reminded Rooney of Telluride's night, about the movie's night. She likes such a night.

On the way to the Sunset Tower Hotel, I chose to leave and bought a ticket to leave. This is her wisest decision in the past few months.

Withdrawing her gaze, Rooney looked seriously at Lan Li’s bald head, her calm mind began to surging again, countless whimsical thoughts erupted, and after silence for the whole afternoon and the whole night, she finally began to recover and regained her vitality. , "Tell me about your performance tonight, I think this is much more exciting than a boring awards ceremony."

Rooney was a little excited. She tried to keep her voice calm, but her bright eyes still revealed her inner excitement. Not just a bald head, but also the loneliness and bitterness between Lan Li's eyebrows. She didn't know the ins and outs, causes and consequences, but knew that behind that indifferent expression, there must be a wonderful story.
