The Greatest Showman - Chapter 2341
[2304 Cultural Differences]
Take a break.
Gumbling.
clap clap.
These are the constant surging sounds on the tarmac. It is difficult for Renly to find an accurate word to describe them. They are just mixed in the warm sea breeze. Such a unique scene is definitely something that Renly has never encountered before. , Lightness and happiness climbed up the upward arc of the corner of the mouth without knowing it.
The people around Renly didn’t seem to dare to go forward easily, some were cautious, some shy and some uneasy, and they secretly cast a scrutiny glance, but behind those simple smiles and bright eyes, there was a flash of excitement that could not be hidden. The hustle and bustle surrounded Renly.
When I met avid fans in the past, the scene was always full of water, and it might even cause a stampede accident, which was also the part that Renly was most worried about; today’s warm welcome is a different scene. A little reserved and restrained, politely keeping a little distance, not rushing forward, allowing Renly to move freely in a safe area, but surrounded by heat waves.
This… is definitely an unprecedented experience.
Ren Li couldn’t help chuckling, raised his head and looked into the distance. The boundless crowd of people stretched all the way towards the terminal building, and then he could vaguely see the crowd of people inside the terminal building, frantically and restlessly. Constantly shouting, despite being separated by a layer of glass and a long distance and unable to capture the sound, the surging madness can still be judged by the excited body language, and he is doing his best to welcome.
He did not expect that he would be able to set off such a heat wave in the Maldives.
In the past, all the impressions of this island country were the sea and the beach, as well as the romantic and intoxicating honeymoon resorts – yes, there were also serious high-level internal struggles, if I remember correctly, the former president was arrested for illegally detaining criminals The judge was sentenced by the court judge, and then the vice president detonated the president’s personal speedboat in order to assassinate the president… Wait, those sensational events seem to have happened in 2015, because after that, the government/power in the Maldives has been in turmoil.
So, should President Yameen be absent today just to deal with those things?
This also further shows that if there is no such thing, the president is really ready to come to pick up the plane?
The tumultuous thoughts flashed through his mind, and Renly refocused on the grand occasion in front of him. Even as well-informed as Renly, he had to admit that this was the first time he had faced it. The situation, especially what happened next—
because everyone kept a polite distance, Renly felt a little embarrassed, and always felt as if he was someone who came to investigate the situation of the people,
and then the cameras and cameras were waiting. Looking for the best time to pose, but the problem is, he is not, and there are no cameras around, so Renly is ready to express his gratitude and take the initiative to interact.
As a result, the surrounding crowd was like a magnet repulsing with two poles, and automatically took a small step back, and because the crowd behind him was too dense and solid, it spread out a little to the sides, rolling up like waves. The whole crowd began to surging, accompanied by a slight restlessness, as if uncontrollable excitement leaked out.
Is this…
is it that you have been despised?
Renly was a little flustered.
“Hahahaha.” Mendelsohn laughed mercilessly, “You actually have moments like this.” Looking at Renly’s slightly stiff and overwhelmed appearance, Mendelsson couldn’t stop, even He also patted Renly on the back comfortingly, as if expressing his sympathy, but in fact, the unbearable smile is telling another story.
Not to mention Mendelsohn, even Max and Felicity couldn’t help laughing because of Renly’s reaction and because of the spectacle at the scene.
Renly casts a helpless look at Mendelsohn: Honestly, he really doesn’t know what to do with it, should he give a polite salute and leave?
In the end, it was the mayor, Mr. Hasber, who solved the problem for Renly. “Mr. Renly, you just need to put your hands together to say hello and sign for them. Of course, the premise is that you have enough time.”
Although Ha Heber did not explain further, but Renly quickly realized that it should be a matter of religion and culture: European and American-style handshakes and hugs should not apply here, they must maintain a proper distance, otherwise they may offend each other. cultural beliefs, etc.
In fact, Asian countries all have their own religions, cultures and beliefs, and they still have their own rules that they need to abide by, even if they are fanatical about popular culture.
In the past, when Renly went to Singapore, Japan, South Korea and other places to promote, he was also exposed to a similar situation, but he had not visited India, the Middle East and other places, and he lacked understanding of the culture here, which led to the confusion scene just now. .
Only after realizing this, did Renly really react: the front row of the pick-up crowd around was still dominated by men, while the number of women was obviously not large. They all stood in the second or third row, always Keeping a distance, even staring at Renly was somewhat reserved and somewhat shy.
“Sorry, please forgive my rudeness.” Renly sincerely expressed his apology-if it was a movie promotion, the public relations would inform the relevant etiquette and customs in advance to avoid offending the taboo; but obviously not today, and the crew also I didn’t expect such a grand event at the airport, and McGatlin also looked panicked, and that’s why a small oolong appeared.
Hashiber smiled and made a gesture of returning the salute, without being polite, but politely accepted Renly’s apology, and then continued, “It is our honor to have you at your door, and we sincerely hope that you will enjoy it. Working time in the Maldives, looking forward to coming again in the future, we really welcome you here.”
“My pleasure.” So Renly followed Hashbur’s actions, first expressing a response, and then moving towards The onlookers in front of them signaled one by one.
Sure enough, this time there were no more problems.
The crowd in front of them also responded with traditional gestures, and the faces became vivid and vivid, hidden in the scorching hot heat, and slowly outlined a touch of splendor and splendor comparable to a rainbow. A simple but sincere way of showing welcome.
The rest of the crew also followed the gourd and painted the scoop, and expressed their greetings with traditional gestures.
Renly’s eyes caught the two young men standing in the crowd, ready to move. Although they didn’t speak, the excitement and excitement in their eyes did not hide in the slightest, as if they were about to step forward; Hashiber cast his gaze, and after getting Hashiber’s affirmation, he gestured to the two young men.
After being recognized, the two young men jumped out of the crowd and stood in front of Renly like little fleas, beating continuously – this was the look of a fanatical fan that Renly was familiar with, which made him Couldn’t help but chuckle.
Renly could never have imagined that one day he would miss those fanatical fans. Wasn’t he resisting and worrying all the time?
Thoughts came to mind, Renly still showed a smile, asked their names, and then signed their respective support cards, “Thank you for liking the movie.”
Standing behind Renly, Felicity looked up. Glancing at her friend, she noticed Renly’s words: not thank you for liking my movie, just simply “movie”.
Small differences can interpret more things.
“Master Renly, we all like ‘Boom Drummer’ very, very much, God, I never knew that movies could be made like this, that artistic pursuits could be interpreted like this.” One of the young people, who looked like eighteen or nineteen, said: He said in an excited tone, and seemed to be out of breath because he was too excited.
Renly laughed happily,
“Everyone can have their own interpretation. This is the best part of art.”
Can’t hold back.
When Renly signed the autograph and was about to leave, the voice that became sharp with excitement came from behind again, “I wish you good luck at the Oscars.”
Renly’s smile bloomed, and he turned to respond, ” I hope your blessings will bring good luck.” This suddenly made the two young people scream, especially loud and even a little harsh in the humming sound, and then you can see everyone around them cast their eyes. .
The scene was rather hilarious.
The “Rogue One” crew followed Renly all the way in this way. It took nearly thirty minutes before and after they left the dense siege of the crowd, but Hashiber still accompanied Renly and escorted Renly and his party. When I
got to the shuttle bus, I watched them get on the shuttle bus to another tarmac – the
crew also needed to transfer to a plane before they could reach the real filming location. They only had a short transfer at Male Airport. It’s just, but I didn’t expect to usher in such a welcome event, which is definitely a rare sight.
“Dear Mr. Renly, are you sure you won’t be staying in Male for a while?” The lively pick-up crowd was left behind, Hashiber was still waiting beside Renly with a smile on his face, and asked with a smile, “If If you want, I can serve as a guide to show you the scenery of Male. I know that this is neither London nor New York, but Male still has its own culture and scenery, and welcomes guests at any time.”
“Very Thank you for the invitation.” Renly nodded politely, “It’s a pity for us to only have a short stopover in Male. Believe me, we can feel the enthusiasm and sincerity of this land, if we have the opportunity , we are very happy to stay. But unfortunately we still have work.”
“Understood, understand!” Hashiber nodded in agreement, “I hope that when I finish my work and leave, I will have the opportunity to visit my mansion, and I will Will give a warm welcome with open arms.”
