Chapter 872 Cote d'Azur
Over there, Anson had no idea that he was becoming the subject of research in journalism and communication, and that he was becoming part of the mark of the times.
Here, on August 31st, the band’s European street tour is heading south——
There are accidents, surprises, laughter and touching.
Everything, return to music and performance, truly let the residents of the European continent feel the charm and energy of the August 31st band's music.
Slowly, street performances began to have the feel of a concert tour. Even if they were not ticketed performances, they still had the atmosphere of a ticketed performance.
The band went all the way south into Spain, then wandered around Spain and Portugal for a short time, then returned to France and headed east; then, the band announced that the pace of street performances would be temporarily slowed down for a while. , two weeks to be precise, the show entered a short break.
No further explanation is needed, a discerning person can guess the reason by looking at the map——
Nice.
Nice is located on the French Riviera in the south of France.
Bang, bang, bang.
The train carriage is gently swaying, and golden sunlight penetrates the windows and falls on the table. Although the air conditioning is on in the carriage, the arms bathed in the sun can still feel the heat, laziness and laxity. Lying down in the chair, quietly closing his eyes, he slowly melted into the golden color.
Wow.
A few rustling exclamations and praises surged gently in his ears. Anson opened his eyes slightly, opened a gap, and looked along the endless golden color, and he could see the clear and The colorful blue spreads out in the field of vision.
Blue, intoxicating.
Between sleepy eyes, the scenery is hazy, as if you can't help but see the sea creatures chasing and playing under the sparkling ripples; but in the blink of an eye, the clear mint blue quietly escapes into the endless depths, peacock blue, navy blue , deep blue, all waves disappear into the endless blue.
Even the golden halo above the sea is dyed with a light aqua blue.
The whole world escapes into blue.
You don’t need any additional words to know that the French Riviera has arrived.
In sight, Lily pressed against the window, her eyes wide open, looking at the scenery in front of her in surprise and astonishment. The sun shone unbridled in the depths of her pupils, so that she burst into tears, but she still couldn't bear to blink. He stared blankly at the sea like a fool and slowly sank.
Miles leaned forward slightly and looked sideways at the window. Although he had no special expression, he couldn't help but hold his breath and stare.
Only Connor.
I leaned back on the chair, opened my mouth, and drooled. Even if a fly flew in, I was unconscious and fell into a deep sleep.
However, this is not surprising -
The street performance lasted three to four days a week for six weeks, which consumed a huge amount of physical and energy.
All four members of the band, including Anson himself, were exhausted.
Now that I can finally relax, I don’t need to worry about the performance for the next two weeks. Once my nerves are relaxed, one or two people can’t stop the car.
Entering the territory of the French Riviera means that Cannes is in sight.
The 56th Cannes Film Festival will officially kick off tomorrow. Journalists and movie fans from all over the world have gathered in Cannes, a small city on the Côte d'Azur.
When people mention the three major film festivals in Europe, Berlin is the most political, Venice has the longest history, and Cannes is the most famous.
In 2003, the global film market was booming, and the three major European film festivals each had its own merits and differences, with almost the same level of attention every year.
Among them, the Cannes Film Festival relies on its reputation as the largest film trading market in Europe to show its tolerance and diversity. It is more willing to open its arms to welcome the cultures of other countries than Venice, and it is more willing to put down its posture to accommodate than Berlin. Commercial market, which gives them a slight advantage.
In terms of marketing, the Cannes Film Festival is half a step ahead. Every year, more than 400,000 spectators flock to this small town for this annual movie event.
But in fact, Cannes is just a small town with a permanent population of less than 70,000 people.
There is no airport here, and the only way to get here is to land in Nice, and then take a train or car, which can be reached in just twenty minutes.
In the town, there is no developed industry, no bustling tourism industry, and no graceful natural scenery. The whole world knows that Cannes has three "S", Sun, Sea, and Sex; but people who have actually arrived in Cannes know that those are just hype gimmicks——
When it comes to the sun, Monaco’s yachts are the most pleasant sunbathing spots.
When it comes to the sea, Eze is the best overlook to appreciate the blue of the Mediterranean.
In terms of scenery, Nice has dozens of beaches to choose from.
It is no exaggeration to say that the French Riviera, as a top resort, has countless towns and beaches that are more suitable for enjoyment, relaxation, and vacation than Cannes.
As for Cannes?
This is just an ordinary town with rough beaches, hot sunshine and few people.
If it weren’t for the Cannes Film Festival, no one would visit here all year round; but the fact is, because of the existence of the Cannes Film Festival, this town has become a place on the Côte d’Azur that can rival Nice. A pearl.
Every May, the chill and drizzle of spring are preparing to exit the stage in the northern hemisphere, and the heat and scorching heat of summer have not yet had time to fully hit. In this short window, Cannes will attract global attention. Movie lovers from all over the world gather together——
party. Extravaganza. Vacation. carnival.
From this perspective, Cannes is indeed a good place to relax.
Next, the movie "Elephant" starring Anson will be screened in Cannes.
Originally, "elephant" has become the focus of heated discussions for various reasons; now, after more than a month of commotion, attention is still rising, and "elephant" has become an absolute topic. Explode sight.
Anson is about to return as an actor and once again bring a new work.
Coincidentally, the band could also use a holiday on August 31, and Miles and the others followed Anson to the beautiful Côte d'Azur.
Everything goes according to plan.
Wow.
Lily couldn't remember how many times she sighed. It wasn't until the train slowly entered the station that she could no longer see the scenery, and then she reluctantly looked back.
“Wow.”
"Anson, even if you are busy in the next few days, there is no need to worry about us. We will be very happy here. This is simply paradise."
"Now I finally know why everyone always talks about the French Riviera. It’s from the Côte d’Azur.”
Rarely, Lily was a little excited.
Miles motioned for Lily to lower her voice, then looked at Anson and raised his hand to signal——
hat.
"You need to be low-key."
Anson seemed particularly calm, "The reporters should all be at Nice International Airport. No one will take the train to Cannes like me."
