Chicago 1990

Sleeping soundly, awake in a daze, Song Ya stretched out, "Mike...what time is it?"

"They said they were going to take the stage and call the curtain."

"Oh!"

Immediately awake, a carp slapped up, pulled up the tuxedo, and ran out after looking in the mirror. This absolutely must appear.

The first performance of the New Year’s concert was very successful. He, Lia Salonga, South African singers, and guest conductors and well-known performers who participated in other repertoires were introduced to the stage by Barenboi, and then lined up in a row, holding hands and bowing again. Compliments.

Feeling relaxed a lot, and because of the long applause in the audience, he still has a leisurely feeling and nodded and smiled with the governor, the mayor’s family and the South African ambassador in the first row. The governor’s wife changed her professional suit and evening wear Look was also very praised hehe...

I also saw some friends and Xue Linfen mother and son in the balcony on the second floor. They raised their heads and waved to the left and waved to the right.

Why did Charis sit next to David Geffen?Forget about these details, Mila is here today, and Halle...

His thoughts fluttered quickly, and he tugged at his pants tube.

The curtain call was over, and when he was leaving the stage one by one, he saw the governor spread his five fingers and lip-synch, guessing that it should be the participation of A+ Records and A+CN's new site foundation laying ceremony on the 5th. It has been arranged on the 5th of this month. , Very compact, so he nodded to him than raised his thumb to indicate that everything was OK.

"Wait for dinner together."

As soon as they entered the corridor, the artists relaxed and started talking and laughing, talking about where to eat and other topics. He also stopped Barenboi, "It's in the loft club above, Mr. Geffen and the others also Come, you go first, I'll take a break and tidy up."

"Ok."

Barenboi didn't use a negotiating tone, so he had to agree.The Loft Club is just a common name, because the location is on the ninth floor of the Symphony Center, which is the top floor. It should actually be called the Cliff Residents Club?It is an artist group founded by the late novelist and poet Hamlinggarland. It represents the Central Frontier series.

"Linda, let's take Robb home with Xuelin first. I want to have dinner with Barenboy and Mr. Geffen tonight... OK, then you and Halle take Robb home."

After the show, some Chicago dignitaries or "famous actor" friends flowed into the backstage, and the lounge door became very lively. From time to time, people called friends or walked past quickly. Song Ya also took a shower casually, just changed. In comfortable formal wear, Xue Linfen came in.

"Let's go."

He was afraid that he would wait for Barenboi but was first arrived by the other party, and asked Xue Linfen to take his arms and hurried out.

"Ok?"

When I went to the top floor, I found that the cliff residents' club was empty. Old Mike, who was in charge of route planning, walked around and walked into the only membership restaurant that was still open.

“Due to the renovation and renovation of the entire building, the club did not renew the lease last year. The relocation has been completed and it is estimated that they will not return after the completion of the project. The orchestra will also move to Lavinia Stains in Highland Park after the New Year’s concert. We live temporarily at the Conservatory of Music. We used to go there until summer to participate in the Lavinia Music Festival."

David Geffen and the others occupy the best dining table, chatting with Doug Morris and the manager of the Symphony Center.

"It's mainly the music hall. You should have noticed just now. The view of the box is not good. The acoustic theory at the beginning of this century is not mature. As a result, the sense of hearing has not been able to keep up with other orchestral halls of the same level, especially the bass part... The fire protection system is also terrible. We need better ones to be worthy of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra..."

The manager seemed to be eyeing David Geffen, the potential big benefactor, desperately complaining.

"Hi..."

Charisy and Mira both sat beside David Geffen and Doug Morris like a lady, silently listening to them with a smile, and at the same time they saw themselves and Xue Linfen enter the door and greeted them in a low voice.

"You guys continue……"

Song Ya smiled and opened the chair for Xue Linfen and sat down, "Mr. Barenboi said he was late.

"BabaYetu is great. If you are hungry, order something to eat first."

They are all familiar. David Geffen and Doug Morris followed up with the manager after a brief polite remark. They seemed to be really interested in sponsoring the symphony center, and the investment was not small, so they talked very seriously.

Why didn't David Geffen mention it before, Song Ya muttered in her heart, anyway, she was a little hungry, so she beckoned to the waiter to come over and order, the three women at the table each played their own side and were good at the game, pleasing to the eye, just in time for the meal.

"Forget it, I'll eat steak too. I'm always hungry lately." Xue Linfen touched her bulging belly and ordered the exact same menu.

"Your orchestra hall is also called..." David Geffen asked.

"Theodore Thomas Symphony Hall. He was the first music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. At the end of the last century, when the sponsor of the orchestra recruited him, he asked if the orchestra owns an entire theater, would you like to come to Chicago? He replied: Next I am willing to hell!"

Everyone here laughed when they heard the story the manager said.

"It's a pity that Theodore Thomas passed away less than a month after all the works were completed here." The manager said again.

"Your large rehearsal room is called the Bontloch Hall and the banquet hall is called the Granger Hall, right?" David Geffen asked.

"Yes, do you plan to..."

The manager seemed to have heard something, and was surprised and delighted, "Our building has not yet been named, maybe it can be imitated the Chebingol building next door...Geffen Symphony Center, the name sounds great!"

"what name?"

Asked Barenboi, who was belatedly.

"Mr. Geffen intentionally..."

When the manager was halfway through, David Geffen smiled and waved his hand, "Haha, it's not me...it's Mr. Bronfman." He turned his head to Barenboi and Song Ya and said, "Mr. Bronfman also watched. Your performance was broadcast. He said he was deeply impressed by your wonderful performance and the shabby theater."

"Thank him for me." Barenboi and the manager looked at each other, and sat down very seriously, waving his hand to refuse the approaching waiter.

"What is your renovation budget?" David Geffen asked: "How much money has been raised?"

"110 million knives, about 50 million have been raised so far, we have been around since 1993..."

Hearing that a tycoon was willing to solve a key problem, the manager and Barenboi had no intention of eating anything. They focused on talking with David Geffen. It seemed that progress was fast. David Geffen frequently got up and left the meeting to call, the manager and Barenboi Yi seized the opportunity to whisper.

Song Ya couldn't speak, and felt a little left out. Shouldn't we be talking about BabaYetu now?He had to bury his head in the food, and from time to time toast to Mira and Charis, making eye contact.

"Uh, the Bronfman family is willing to help you solve another fifty million in principle."

David Geffen brought back a very domineering news.

"Great! Let's raise a glass to the Bronfman Symphony Center!" The manager exclaimed, excited.

Barenboi was naturally very happy.

"Wow……"

Throwing fifty million knives for naming a building?The top rich three generations are cows!

Song Ya looked at the splendor in his eyes, and was emotionally infected with the three women who stood up and clinked glasses to congratulate them. They bit the lemon to hangover and died of sourness.
