Chapter 1575 1575 Faith Is Immortal
If anyone wants to ask, what does the sea look like when it is boiled.
Hugo could answer calmly and firmly: This is what he looks like at the moment. The boundless sea of people was completely boiling at this time. Everyone was jumping, screaming, and shouting excitedly. The faces that became red because of being too excited were reflected in the golden sunlight. Underneath, an unparalleled frenzy was released.
Hugo felt like he was stepping into a sea of boiling fire step by step. The frenetic temperature even made his skin tingle, and the hot air made people wonder if he was about to burn in the next second. When Hugo left the flight ladder and walked to the ground, the crowd at the scene finally lost control again!
The human wall formed by the security guards is like a turbulent wave. They have been tested by the turbulent waves behind them, and they are in danger every time, but they still stubbornly defended the front line.
"Hugo, Hugo, God, God..."
"I love you, Hugo, I love you..."
"Jesus Jesus Jesus..."
"Hugo, ah ah... Hugo, ah..."
"Woo woo, Hugo, woo woo woo woo woo fruit..."
The heart-piercing shouts were fragmented because of the ubiquitous screams. All the shouts were only a single word, and it was impossible to piece together the whole picture. In the end, only the name "Hugo" remained. Infinite sparks rubbed in the air, as if everything was completely out of control.
In Hugo's line of sight, he could only see the cheeks that were deformed due to being too excited. It was like a strange deformed show. It was performed in a trance and publicity. An abstract painting that eloquently outlines an unparalleled gesture.
"Ahhhh! Ahhh!" Hugo's ears started ringing, just like the Irish tap dance, tapping his eardrums with shock and force, one wave after another surging, leaving Hugo with no time at all. If there is no time to react, he can only passively rise and fall in the turbulent waves, and in the next second, he will directly swallow Hugo.
Hugo doesn't even remember how he moved forward. It seems that more of the time, the crowd is pushing him forward. Some people are pulling him forward, some people are pulling him back, and some people are even pressing him down. Countless hands are moving towards Hugo. Reaching over, as if he wanted to tear him into countless small pieces, this made Hugo lose control of his body, like a canoe, bumping up and down in the storm, as if he would be caught at any time. The waves broke into countless pieces.
When Hugo left the passage of the sea of people and stood at the end of the other side, he looked at the roaring and surging ocean in front of him. He only felt that his body was no longer his own. The arm flapping, even more painful than being run over by a road roller, the endless enthusiasm made Hugo's body remember everything in the most direct and profound way.
Hugo once thought that the trip to London would be unparalleled, but he far underestimated all of it. He didn't expect it to be so turbulent, so violent, so brutal, even surpassing any crowd gathering in Hugo's memory! This made Hugo couldn't help but imagine in his mind what kind of scene the Beatles saw when they first arrived in the United States, what kind of mood they were in, and whether they had ever experienced such a frenzy...
History is really interesting stuff, isn't it? Imagine that more than 30 years ago, people in the United States were frenzied and agitated by the music power from the British Isles; more than 30 years later, the United Kingdom was cheered by the surging film power from the United States. More than 30 years ago, the strong rise of rock and roll swept the world; more than 30 years later, the only remaining glory of rock and roll is gradually being forgotten by people.
Especially when this scene is experienced by the person "Hugo", it is more interesting. Hugo is a movie actor first, and this time he came to Europe to promote the work of "Independence Day"; but no one can forget Hugo is the lead singer of a band—a member of a rock band, and what he represents is precisely the new rock force that starts from the United States and affects the whole world, just like the rock force that radiated from the United Kingdom back then. Standing between actor and rock, Hugo looks at it all with a peculiar and unique perspective.
Are these people fanatical only because of the "Independence Day" movie, or because of Hugo Lancaster, the top star, or because of the status of the lead singer of the band who died of glory... Rain If there is no way to judge, he can be sure that at least they did not come because of faith.
The craze that the Beatles set off came from people's belief in rock and roll, the belief that rock and roll can change the world, the belief that rock and roll is the future direction of culture, the belief that rock and roll is used for Beliefs against the weapons of government against society... These beliefs have evolved into a belief, like a religion, with endless enthusiasm from within, making every cry a cornerstone of history, and making every singing They have all become the driving force for changing history, making every frenzy an energy for social change. This is the real reason for the golden age of rock and roll.
However, after entering the 1990s, although there was grunge, although there was new metal rock, and even the mainstream market had re-emphasized the existence of rock, the rock belief that flows in the blood has been missing, even if rock music No matter how good the sales are, it is only a commercial victory, not a revival of faith. This is the reason for the real decline of rock and roll.
"How can it be just me? It's as if I were the last child still fighting, still believing: I will guard my faith, I will honor defeat with my head held high; I will engrave the melody in my heart, and the singing will never stop."
The melody set off a powerful storm in his mind like a turbulent sea. The blood in Hugo's body was raging like a galloping horse. Looking at the surging crowd in front of him, Hugo could not help clenching his fists, his inner belief was incomparable. Steadfast and tough: Glory, or death? He still chooses to strut toward the supreme glory, even if the price is bruised and bruised, even if the price is a threat of death, he will never waver!
After the downturn of the past year, the resurgence of glory to death, and the breakthrough of rebirth, at this moment, Hugo has an unprecedented bold idea in his heart: he wants to make the faith of rock and roll in history. Reborn again in the long river, re-blooming with supreme glory!
It's not just a bold idea, it's an incredible, over-the-top idea, and it's even harder—ten times, a hundred times, even a thousand times harder—than Glory to the Dead opening up a new metal rock world. Because the times have moved forward, and the glory of rock and roll has been completely forgotten in the long river of history. After entering the 1990s, the spirit of rock and roll has begun to lag behind time, derailed from business, and alienated from the mainstream. This is the process of the times and also cultural. Change is a historical necessity.
New metal rock just opened up a new world in the rock circle. To the death of glory is facing the gradually dead and aging rock force. It is already difficult to break this confinement; and from being exiled to a remote rock well Going to the mainstream market with a broad vision in the end has almost consumed all the energy of glory to death. Now, Hugo wants to make the belief that belongs to rock and roll become part of the culture again, and awaken the rock and roll spirit in people's hearts again.
It can be said that this is fighting against the entire social culture and against the entire history. This is an idea of a man's arm being a car, an over-the-top idea, an idea that is doomed to fail, just like Don Quixote.
Hugo knew this clearly, he knew it better than anyone else: because if this trajectory continues, after entering the twenty-first century, rock and roll will gradually be excluded from the mainstream, although everyone shouts "Rock and roll spirit" is only an excuse for fake literary youth to shout slogans and pretend, and the real rock and roll spirit has been annihilated in historical occasions. The territory of rock and roll in the music market is constantly being eroded. Even Linkin Park, which has the best business record, cannot change the general situation of the whole society. This is the inevitable result of the lack of the whole belief.
However, Hugo did not waver at this time. On the contrary, he was more awake than ever. At this moment, he could clearly feel the passion and excitement running through his body. The unprecedented enthusiasm was deeply imprinted into his bones, and the tip of his tongue jumped. With a tingling sensation, his thoughts fluctuated like electric waves, and the enthusiasm in his blood was like a volcano that was about to erupt, ready to erupt at any time.
Just thinking about it was enough to make Hugo boil.
Hugo knew it was a doomed battle, but he didn't want to give up, and he didn't want to give up, just like the band's name: Glory to Death. In fact, from the moment they were established, the belief in rock and roll has been imprinted in the bones of the band, which is not only indelible, but also the belief that the band has been going on. Now, what Hugo needs to do is to engrave this belief in the blood of their music, and use their meager power to change the established historical process.
Even if it's a futile effort, even if it's just an emptiness in the end, even if failure is inevitable... But he still won't give up, on the contrary, he will take steps with enthusiasm and hold his head high, and walk out a path that only belongs to glory. Death is only the road of their age, glory or death, he can accept it calmly.
At this moment, Hugo deeply felt the power of Don Quixote's perseverance and faith. Looking at the surging sea of people that seemed to explode at any time, the smile on the corner of his mouth bloomed recklessly and brilliantly. He needs this moment, and he needs this kind of belief.
Rock and roll never die!
