Renly's shoulder muscles tensed slightly, uncontrollably.
All the sights of the entire Radio City Music Hall were projected over. Renly was like a moving little sun, shining brightly and attracting the attention of the audience. Every move became the focus of everyone's discussion, with a frown and a smile. All sparked a lot of speculation.
Here, Renly and Stark-Sanders greeted again; there, there was speculation whether Renly was deliberately excluding the other three nominees, or vice versa, the other three The nominees are uniting veteran Broadway cast members to crowd out Renly.
Here, Renly and the current president of the Broadway League, Charlotte Martin (artin), nod; then, people can't help but wonder if that means tonight's Best Actor in a Musical is going to cost Down with Lanly.
Here, Renly stopped and chatted with Lyle-Kessler, the screenwriter of this year's best drama nominee "The Orphans"; there, speculation about Renly's imminent return to the theatrical stage was already surging. spread out.
No one can make an exception.
In a literal sense, every stop, every conversation, every nod, every greeting, and even a glance of Renly seemed to have hidden meanings. From my own perspective, I began to read, explain, analyze, and tried to find the direction of tonight's awards from the clues.
This feeling is very, very special.
It's like walking in the jungle, I always feel that I can feel the sight of peeping in all directions, but when I turn my head, it is calm, and I can't find any clues at all. Dancing wildly, all the hairs on his body stood up, and his nerves were tense to the extreme.
Being in such a situation, Renly was already very sensitive. A little bit of trouble could trigger the alarm. At this moment, this sensitivity would further magnify everything, and that invisible sense of oppression would be crowded little by little. Come over, press down heavily and slowly, the increasingly heavier force forces the body to make a conditioned counterattack, and the shoulder line slowly tightens.
After all, Renly was just an ordinary person.
Before attending the Tony Awards, Renly had adjusted his mentality, completely ignoring Nathan, who was like an ant on a hot pan, Roy and Andy, who pretended to be calm but restless, and Edith, who was super abnormal. Heart embraces tonight and embraces any possible outcome, so on the red carpet, Renly can take it easy and calm.
But now, it seems that every look, every smile, every movement is hinting or expressing that this is not an ordinary night, it even bears the weight of the entire history, the huge pressure is swarming fiercely, death It was firmly pressed against his chest, unable to be ignored or resolved, just like countless frames, firmly and firmly bound Renly's limbs, trapped in place.
make history
People never realize that the creation of history is glorious and spectacular, but the difficulties and dangers are far beyond imagination. If there is no expectation, then you can face it calmly; but after the expectation is raised, even if it is the slightest expectation, once you miss it, the disappointment will be overwhelming and unbearable.
Involuntarily, Renly straightened his back even more.
Tougher, more calm, and more calm. Even the London aristocratic circle of Hell difficulty has already come over, do you still need to worry about New York Vanity Fair on Normal difficulty? After reliving his first life, he finally got a glimpse of the different faces of the world. Perhaps, when life comes to an end again, this will become an interesting memory fragment.
Then, Renly saw Tom Hanks.
As the most influential actor in North America, Tom's appeal and influence are unmatched, even by Renly or Robert Downey Jr.
This year, Tom officially returned to the Broadway stage, starring in an old friend's work "Lucky Man." The play was written by Nora-Ephron, a famous Hollywood screenwriter who worked together on the popular "Sleepless in Seattle."
Unfortunately, Nora passed away in the second half of last year and couldn't wait for the premiere night of "Lucky Man"; but Tom still completed all the performances conscientiously, and with the wonderful performance of this work, he won the most tonight's performance. Nominated for Best Actor in a Play.
Another little anecdote about Tom and Renly.
Last year, when Renly performed on the Broadway stage, after each performance, the fans waiting at the back door also became a beautiful sight. This also refreshed a new history of Broadway -
"An actor with the most prosperous backdoor in the history of Broadway", this is a report from the "New York Post", they emphasized that although Broadway has existed for a long time, there has never been an actor with such appeal, This is tantamount to a shot in the arm for Broadway, which is still in the doldrums.
At the beginning of this year, when Tom performed "Lucky Man", his supporters specially called on fans to take turns and wait in order to set this record, and the average number of 300 spectators per night set a new record not long ago. The historical record that Renly just made.

This incident is still in the news, and it has also become a joke among the media: Tom Hanks' fans actually don't show signs of Renly Hall, is this a progress or a regression
Tom was still the same Tom, exuding a fatherly breath all over his body, honest and simple, kind and tolerant, he took the initiative to greet him, gave Renly a generous hug, and after the hug was over, he moved towards Renly. Blinking his eyes, "I know you don't like hugs."
The subtext is that it was intentional just now.
"So, guess what, how are other people discussing now?" Tom said with a fox-like sly joke with a simple and honest expression, but he did not violate the harmony at all.
Renly pursed the corners of his lips with a chuckle, and said solemnly, "Let me guess: Renly and Tom's relationship is completely over, and now they are pretending to be close, even exaggeratingly hugging each other, trying hard to hide their incompatibility?"
"..." Tom showed a slightly surprised expression, then saw the smile in Renly's eyes, and shook his head helplessly, "You know that's not what I meant."
"You know I don't mean it at all." Renly's answer was also vague, but Tom understood it all at once.
Tom's joke just now was to say whether their intimate hug would change other people's guesses about the trend of the awards tonight.
Renly's answer was to say that he had no idea about these discussions and didn't care.
Tom laughed dumbly. "Really? Honestly, don't you have any ideas?"
Even Tom couldn't help but be curious at this time, because he was very far away from EGOT, he had no interest in the Grammys, and he had no intention of trying to get EGOT together; even for the Tony Award, Tom always Not forced. Now, suddenly, a Renly appeared, and curiosity was inevitable.
Renly shook his head slightly helplessly. "Tom, I thought we were friends." Since we are friends, don't ask any more questions.
"I thought so too." Tom replied, because he was a friend, so he could ask without hesitation.
Renly chuckled, "I have many, many thoughts, but I'm trying not to have any of them right now. Really, what I'm really thinking right now is, if it does come true tonight, am I going to be the whole The public enemy of Hollywood."
Twenty-three year old EGOT? And, will it be completed in just three years
Not only the public enemy of the entire Hollywood, I am afraid that on all news media and social networks, the voices of envy, jealousy and hatred will be overwhelming. By then, Renly might really be the enemy of the nation.
Tom nodded slightly in agreement. Back then, after he won the Best Actor Oscar for two consecutive years, he was faced with the same situation, and it has continued to this day—he is now struggling to even get an Oscar nomination. It's true that his prestige and popularity are at the top of all Hollywood, but when it comes to acting and awards, people still habitually ignore him.
"I thought you didn't care." Tom cast a curious glance.
Renly spread his hands, showing a playful look, "Tom, you know, I'm not Superman."
Tom nodded heavily, "Thanks for letting me know, I finally got the confirmation today." Both of them couldn't help but smile, "Don't pay attention to those eyes, if you win, they will envy; if you lose, they will pity. But they are not you after all, and no one but you can understand how you got here and what it all means."
A warm current slowly flowed through Renly's heart. Instead of teasing, he said sincerely, "Thank you."
The heights are so cold.
Renly used to think this was a compliment, because only when you really reached the unreachable heights can you feel the biting cold, so it also means that the footsteps have come to the heights and won everyone's yearning. everything of.
Now Renly thinks this is a sad phrase, because the loneliness and loneliness hidden in it cannot be relieved. People see the "high", but no one sees the difficulty and danger of climbing the "high". self-defeating each other.
Look, Renly feels it now.
He hasn't even won the Tony Award, or he doesn't need to win the Tony Award, he has achieved such heights at the age of twenty-three, which is a height that countless people can't achieve in their entire lives, and he can feel it now The ubiquitous coldness and alienation, the loneliness that is everywhere is drowning him little by little.
If he wins a Tony tonight, is there anyone else around him
