Chapter 44: Christmas Night
At this time, the expressions on Gu Luobei and Anne-Hathaway’s faces were very strange, they were funny, surprised, depressed, and aggrieved. , burst into laughter and broke the silence.
After that little girl named Ruisha-Rosie met Gu Luobei in a very unexpected way, she chatted and was very excited, but then she left, she actually left! No autographs, no photos, no hugs, no requests, and more importantly, after she finished saying what she wanted to say, she waved her hands and left. This made Gu Luobei and Anne-Hathaway not knowing how to react.
Ordinary fans see idols, autograph photos, screaming wildly, hugging and pulling, and getting oil up and down is not the basic equipment. But Ruisha-Rosie was completely different. Except for being excited, there was nothing abnormal at all, and she also regarded Gu Luobei as a friend.
But after Gu Luobei and Anne Hathaway finished laughing, and thinking about it, she would know the reason. Reza Rosie really liked the song “The Last” and the music made by Gu Luobei, that’s why she Wouldn’t it mind that Gu Luobei left the melancholy mood, and there was no performance of crazy fans, and she repeatedly said that she was looking forward to hearing Gu Luobei’s music again.
“Bei, shouldn’t you repay some of those who supported you?” The smile on Anne Hathaway’s face hadn’t dissipated, and her cheeks were still flushed from laughter.
Gu Luobei did not expect that the influence of the performance at the Eagle Rock Music Festival would spread on the Internet. Although the scope was not very large, it was only a song after all, but Gu Luobei felt that this could also be an opportunity. Be the opportunity to start your own independent musician career.
Gu Luobei has now established Eleven Music Studio, and it is completely possible to establish an official website for the studio. Gu Luobei can publish his own creations on this website. Because it is the private website of an independent music studio, Gu Luobei can publish the content of the website as he wishes. I do not seek profit or fame, but only hope that this website can be established as an independent music website of Gu Luobei, and become a gathering place for fans who like Gu Luobei’s music.
In this way, Gu Luobei’s works have a release channel, and it is also an open publicity channel. It can also gather fans. It is indeed a feasible solution. Unlike most of the independent musicians now, Gu Luobei, who has lived in two generations, is very clear about the huge role of the Internet in the next few years. Justin Bieber became the world’s top idol singer through video sites, and that’s one of the biggest examples. Therefore, in the early period of 2000, making good use of the power of the Internet was definitely an advantage for an independent musician. Of course, due to cost considerations, this official website domain name, server and other issues will definitely need to be re-studied.
There was such an idea in his head, but it was not yet mature or perfect. Gu Luobei put the idea aside for the time being and said to Anne-Hathaway, “That’s right, I’m a fan now, so of course I have to. Good business.” After saying that, he smiled smugly.
Anne-Hathaway looked at Gu Luobei’s pensive expression and knew that he took things to heart. Maybe today’s incident with fans could really become a turning point for Gu Luobei’s independent musicians, which made Annie- Hathaway is also very happy. But seeing Gu Luobei’s smug look, she felt that she couldn’t stand it, and she raised her right hand and put it on Gu Luobei’s shoulder, “You still have fans, but you are only one, so you are happy. This way. There will be thousands of fans in the future, so you don’t just faint.”
Gu Luobei didn’t dodge, but was restrained by Anne Hathaway’s neck, but she shouted, “This is called gratitude, you know? Gratitude!” Although Gu Luobei aspires to become an independent musician, this is not the case. It means that things like fans and profit are not attractive to him.
An independent musician is to stick to the music path he likes, so as to gain the approval of “confidants”. The so-called bosom friend is like Boya Ziqi, the number is not large, but the essence. Today, Gu Luobei was so happy to see Reza Rosie because she really liked the song “The Last”, which is the best affirmation for Gu Luobei. Therefore, Gu Luobei still hopes that his music can be truly loved by fans. If it can make a profit, it will be the best. Perhaps, building a website would be a viable route.
Although there were only three people at the Bell family’s Christmas, it was always lively. Catherine Bell is only responsible for preparing the staple turkey, and two brothers do other dishes, as well as house cleaning, decoration and other chores, which are all done by the two brothers. As the name suggests, let Katherine Bell taste the craftsmanship of the two brothers. But Catherine Bell knew that her two sons felt sorry for them for a year, and they always kept her from doing things at Christmas, so she could enjoy the holiday.
It is indeed the truth that children from poor families should be in charge early. When the Bell family first arrived in New York, Teddy Bell was eight years old and Gu Luobei was only six years old. Catherine Bell only relied on years of savings to open a dry cleaning shop, but the start-up capital was not enough, so she took out a loan. One has to raise two children, and the hardships of life are unbearable. It wasn’t until the loan was paid off six years ago that the Bell family’s life gradually improved.
Now, the Bell family is not short of money, but only not short of money. They don’t even have the capital to leave Brooklyn, let alone rich. The money Gu Luobei set up an independent music studio is all the private money he has accumulated over the years for street performances and Broadway performances, and it has now been spent. Fortunately, the two children of the Bell family no longer need family support, and they can earn money by themselves, so the Bell family can gradually see the savings, which is indeed a qualitative improvement for them.
Sitting on the sofa, Catherine Bell looked at the two busy brothers, her heart warmed. Although she has not been in contact with her parents for more than ten years, although her marriage failed, and although she came to New York to work hard and endured countless hardships, she is very lucky to have two good sons, which is also the greatest pride in her life.
“Catherine, help me cut a suit.” Gu Luobei suddenly remembered something important, stopped what he was doing, and said to his mother.
Catherine Bell woke up from her own thoughts, “Why, the size I made for you last time was too small?” Although she was asking questions, Catherine Bell had already set out to get a tape measure, ready to give the little one The son measures the specific size.
Due to the tight economy of the Bell family, the two brothers Gu Luobei sewed many of their clothes by Catherine Bell, from T-shirts to shirts to jeans. Catherine Bell has excellent craftsmanship. Including the suits worn by the two brothers at the high school graduation ceremony, Katherine Bell also sewed out a stitch by stitch.
Although Catherine Bell has never mentioned whether she is the eldest lady of Savile Row, Gu Luobei can be sure that Catherine Bell’s craftsmanship must have been instructed by famous teachers since she was a child, whether it is design, cutting or sewing, All embody the sophisticated technology. It is worth mentioning that Catherine Bell also has her own ideas for design. The clothes she sewed for the two brothers are very good, and they are not inferior to those so-called famous brands. In addition, the two brothers have outstanding temperament. , but also lined up the clothes.
Usually, Eleven Laundry also takes on some work of remaking clothes, which is another source of income from Catherine Bell’s craftsmanship.
“Well, the pants were already short last time.” Gu Luobei nodded. After entering the university, he grew taller very quickly. The suit that Catherine Bell made for him before was made by a tailor when he graduated from high school. In order to save money, he specially made the trousers a little longer, then sewed it in, and released it when he was taller so he could continue to wear it. Even so, that suit was from two years ago and is now short.
While talking, Catherine Bell had already taken out the tape measure, and asked Gu Luobei to put everything in his hands, straighten his legs, and start to measure. Teddy Bell had already set the table, and he said in a loud voice, “When you measure it, prepare to eat.” After that, Teddy Bell leaned on the table and looked at her mother and brother with happiness.
Gu Luobei didn’t finish his words, “At the Sundance Film Festival in mid-January, ‘Death Illusion’ decided to premiere there, and I received an invitation to the premiere.” This is why he asked Katherine Bell The main reason for helping to sew new suits~www.readwn.com~ Otherwise, even if the suit is short, it doesn’t matter if you don’t wear it at ordinary times.
Catherine Bell carefully wrote down the details of her son’s dimensions in the notebook, and when she heard this, she stopped her movements, “What day in January? To paint again.” At this time, Kathryn Bell was a designer and a mother. The tone was full of joy, and the smile on the corner of his mouth could not help but outline.
“Bei, there will be a lot of media at that time, so you have officially entered the public eye?” Teddy Bell also laughed happily, although when Gu Luobei was filming “Death Illusion”, everyone knew this. One day will come sooner or later. It should be said that when Gu Luobei entered Broadway, the Bell family had this realization, but when this day really came, they were still sincerely happy.
“Catherine, don’t be so formal, I just think it’s too cold to wear a shorter suit in winter, otherwise there’s no need to make a new one.” Gu Luobei said indifferently, he would only mention it today, a distance from St. The Danse Film Festival is less than twenty days away, and that’s why. “Entering the public eye? No, I’m at most an independent musician and an independent filmmaker. It’s too early to say what kind of development they have.” Gu Luobei blinked at Teddy Bell and made a grimace. “It won’t officially enter the public eye until thousands of people recognize my music.”
Gu Luobei’s confident words made both Teddy Bell and Catherine Bell laugh. Christmas at Bell’s family is relaxed and comfortable. Although there is no grand festive atmosphere, the warmth of the small family makes this special day filled with happiness.
Second update today. Don’t think I’m annoying, hey, collect and recommend!
