[Phantom of the Opera] Devil's Beauty

The small theater can only stage one-act plays and operettas. Except for those who really love music, few nobles go to the small theater to watch operas.After all, small theaters can neither show their status, nor have beautiful courtesans to pursue.This is a lost bet.Bai Lanzhi only hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing: "Okay."

Three months is enough for her to carefully plan her life.

A girl who comforted her before couldn't help persuading her: "Silly girl, think about it again, it's really not worth wasting three months of youth in a place like a small theater for a Mary. Even the band there No, there's only one oddly shaped piano..."

Mary sneered: "She's astute as hell, so she won't make a loss-making business, so don't worry!"

But no one paid any attention to her, and everyone regarded her as a transparent person.Another girl echoed: "Yeah, Mr. OG has changed several theater managers, and hired a lot of popular sopranos, but none of them can fill that theater. Don't be stupid, you'd better go sing at ease." Be a student in the theater. With Mr. OG here, Mary dare not do anything to you."

They didn't mention one more thing, that is, there is an evil wind of "Audrey" blowing in Paris now, and people of all walks of life are buying Audrey's records like crazy, even though the quality of the records is extremely poor and they can't hear clearly at all. vocals.A few days ago, there was an anecdote that hundreds of records were stolen, because Odell once publicly said that if you want to become her music fan, you must hold one of her records.

In addition, she also founded a magazine, which is specially used to publish performance time and life insights.This magazine can only be purchased by those who hold the record, which not only further stimulated the sales of the record, but also pushed her fame to an unprecedented height.

The fact that she fell out with Mr. Guerlain, the master perfumer, was even more widely known.It is said that Audrey admired Mr. Guerlain's perfume blending skills and had kindly proposed cooperation. As long as Mr. Guerlain would print her profile portrait on the perfume bottle and pay her [-] francs, she would spare no effort to promote it. his perfume.Unexpectedly, Mr. Guerlain actually rejected her offer.So Odell turned to work with his counterpart.She did what she said, and soon, Mr. Guerlain's partner became the exclusive perfumer of the nobles, and the business was booming day by day.

With the beginning of this incident, many businesses began to superstitiously believe in the influence of Audrey.Immediately, her face can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, there are candy wrappers and cigarette boxes with her portrait printed on them, and even pocket watches just out of the factory will have a photo of her embedded in them.

It is no exaggeration to say that Paris is now dominated by Audrey.Never before has opera been so popular and popular in a city.Even people who are not interested in opera will pretend to appreciate the beauty of Odile's soprano under the strong praise of their companions.

If Bai Lanzhi went to the opera house as a student, she might be able to become a second-rate soprano by taking advantage of Audrey's afterglow; but she would never wait for the day when she went to a small theater.

Everyone was heartbroken for Bai Lanzhi's decision. Mr. OG narrowed his eyes and glanced at her in surprise: "Then I will pick you up tomorrow."

Bai Lanzhi nodded obediently, as docile as a sheep.

At this time, someone thought of Mary who had been left out for a long time: "Mr. OG, I don't know how you will deal with Mary?"

"Poor Bai Lanzhi was frightened by Mary's methods. She just gave up the opportunity to study at the Paris Opera after being poured a glass of milk. Mary must have bullied her a lot in private."

"I hope Mr. OG can expel Mary from the mansion to prove justice."

Mary gritted her teeth and looked at the girl who spoke: "What's fair? I think it's your selfishness. Who here doesn't know that you are against me? You want to take this opportunity to drive me out, no way!"

The girl said contemptuously: "Whether you will be expelled from the mansion is not up to me, but Mr. OG. Who doesn't know that Mr. OG is a kind and upright person, and he will let a villain like you stay here go down?"

Mary's face turned pale, apparently she believed the second part of her sentence, and was about to forcefully refute, but Mr. OG suddenly propped his forehead, closed his eyes, and interrupted them with a little tiredness: "Enough, pour milk It's really a trivial matter, just apologize to Bai Lanzhi and don't appear in front of her in the future." He looked at the leather watch with a cold look in his eyes, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

After speaking, he turned around and left, as if he didn't want to stay here any longer.The girls looked at each other, not knowing which sentence offended Mr. OG.

The farce came to an end, and it was Bai Lanzhi who ended up the worst.Not only did he not get the justice he deserved, but he was sent to a small theater to waste time.

Bai Lanzhi didn't care about the sympathetic gazes cast by others.She was in a great mood, and she didn't have to go to the Opera House to face Audrey, but she also dealt with Mary who was plotting something wrong. Although Mr. OG saw through her little trick, he didn't expose it.It couldn't have been a better ending.But she didn't show her happiness on her face, she even shed a few tears when Mary came over to apologize.

When Mary saw it, she immediately became angry: "I will tear off your hypocrisy one day!"

OK, I'll wait.Thinking of this in her heart, Bai Lanzhi showed timidity on her face, and Lihua shook her head rainingly: "You, what do you want from me... I promised you not to go to the opera house, so you can't let me go... ..."

Mary was almost pissed off by her, and was about to throw away her image and fight her, but was surrounded by girls who were equally angry.

******

In the early morning of the next day, Bai Lanzhi walked downstairs refreshed with the suitcase in hand, and saw Mr. OG waiting for her in the living room.

He was still wearing the white mask, a black scarf around his neck, and a thick windbreaker of the same color. He was leaning on the sofa and reading a newspaper.

Bai Lanzhi found that when Mr. OG was upset, he would lightly press his index finger against his lips, showing indifferent and tired eyes, just like now, when he watched the news about Audrey, his knuckles rubbed his lower lip unconsciously, and his eyelashes drooped , with a contemptuous and weary expression.

He also showed this expression yesterday.Why?The girls don't seem to provoke him.

Bai Lanzhi thought about it for a while, but she stopped thinking about it. She was even more curious about why Mr. OG hated Odell.He seems to be someone who takes his music very seriously.Although Blanche did not like Audrey, she would not deceive herself into thinking that she had no achievements in music.

She once listened to the piano teacher play the piece created by Audrey. The rhythm is exciting and the tune is bright. Although there are no elegant and beautiful ornaments, and symmetrical and harmonious polyphonic parts, it can make people quickly immerse themselves in it and hum along with the music. stand up.

In contrast, although the pieces written by other composers are gorgeous, neat, and meticulously crafted to the point that every tremolo can find a foreshadowing in the previous text, they tend to get tired after listening to them for a long time, while Odile's pieces seem to be specially written Eliminate this tiredness.Even the harshest music critics can only criticize her musical forms for being too simple, without dismissing her talent altogether.

So, in the face of such a once-in-a-century musical genius, why did Mr. OG frown slightly, showing a look of leering at a ball of stinking garbage?

Blanche was really curious.

Mr. OG folded up the newspaper, threw it on the coffee table, and glanced at the suitcase in her hand: "It's packed?"

"It's packed, sir."

Mr. OG said "hmm": "I will pick you up in three months, don't let me down." After speaking, he got up and strode out of the mansion, without any intention of helping her with her luggage.

Bai Lanzhi didn't feel anything, she was used to Mr. OG's ungentlemanlike style.Taking advantage of him walking ahead without looking back, she quickly flipped the newspaper on the coffee table to the front page, and a line of bold and capitalized black headlines came into view, "Odelle declares war on Carlota, the best night will be announced tonight."

Not Audrey's scandal.

Then why did he look so disgusted when he saw it?

Bai Lanzhi was confused, and after much deliberation, she could only think of one explanation.

Could it be that Mr. OG is a fan of Carlota's music?

Because she couldn't stand the goddess she admired being provoked by Odile, so she vented her anger?

Although only this explanation is the most reasonable, she can't imagine Mr. OG's love for women at all.He doesn't even want to carry a woman's luggage.

She curled her lips, and she was about to continue watching, but Mr. OG outside got impatient, and lightly reprimanded: "What are you dawdling in, come out."

Bai Lanzhi put down the newspaper with her head down, and reluctantly walked out.She is fierce and has such a bad temper, no wonder she can only read the news of her favorite goddess in the newspaper.I don't know what the girls in the mansion like about him.
