　　Original title: It costs $15,000 to stay in a blank room for one night, and the stars are still snapping it up. What are the rich thinking?

　　Author: MISS

　　This is the most expensive hotel in new york, but the decoration looks so "poor"? There is a hotel in Greenwich Street, new york. Its red brick wall looks just like the surrounding buildings, but it is besieged by paparazzi all the year round. Obama raised more than 500,000 US dollars for the election here, and Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Tom Cruise, Blake Lively, jennifer lopez and other big-name stars regard this place as their second home.

　　Greenwich Hotel is a member of Liding World. It is not only expensive, but also quite different from the general Lidingshi Hotel. The top suite in the hotel is almost a embryo room, which not only costs 15 thousand dollars a night, but also is difficult to book all the year round. Generally, people who can live in this room are not small players.

　　This blank room is called TriBeCa loft suite. To say its greatest achievement, it should be that it has set off a wave of silence. After Mr. Kanye and kim kardashian lived together, they invited a co-designer to spend $20 million to renovate their luxurious house into a plain cement house, which is simpler than minimalism and colder than sexual indifference.

　　Contemporary people’s aesthetics began to pay attention to removing complexity and simplifying, and now it has become the mainstream to follow the aesthetic culture of "at the beginning of everything, the road is simple".

　　This room tells you what "the worse you get, the richer you get"

　　This suite is on the top floor of the hotel, with an area of about 632 square meters, of which 260 square meters is indoor and 372 square meters is outdoor space. There are three bedrooms, two bathrooms, living room, kitchen and fireplace. There are two outdoor open-air gardens, a barbecue area and a warm water spa pool.

　　Deep to light gray, brown and white are the keynote colors of the whole space, and the clean layout provides a display position for a large number of artworks. This is not so much a guest room as an exhibition hall. Most furniture and works of art are antiques collected by designers from all over the world, and the cheapest piece of art is worth 3 thousand dollars.

　　The wind of silence is a Zen concept, which holds that true beauty is defective, incomplete and temporary, and will disappear like life. Poor things, such as a table with rough workmanship or a happy-burning tea bowl, reflect this concept.

　　Stone, old wood, ceramics, linen products and rattan products, which are more simple and return to the original state, are common elements in the lonely wind. The seemingly random stone fireplace is actually carved with reference to the architectural structure of the Louvre. The iron grate is made of joist hangers used in the original structure of the Louvre Museum.

　　From the ceiling, beams to doors, to corridor panels, the wood in the whole hotel can be traced back to various periods. The boards on the ceiling are remnants of the civil war that were salvaged from the nearby farmers’ market. The wood of the headboard was originally a walnut desktop in the 19th century.

　　Bathtubs and double basin sinks are made of stone sinks in the 17th century. On the outer layer, you can see the traces left by the weathering of stones over time, while the interior is smoothed. Therefore, the real lonely wind is not just posed casually with these elements, but is actually quite particular about selection and design.

　　In addition to works of art that have a history, designers will deliberately make old ones. He ordered some furniture, the most special one being the bronze handle. It was cast according to the grip marks on his hand, leaving a personal mark unconsciously.

　　Walking out, it is a private double-deck terrace with a special roof, overlooking the Hudson River from the lush garden. Copper gourd chandelier is hung on the pergola frame surrounded by wisteria, which is reconstructed from the original copper roof material of the building.

　　There is also an outdoor wood-burning fireplace in the garden, which can accommodate 18 people.

　　There are countless luxury hotels in new york, but it’s easy to find one with a swimming pool. Greenwich Hotel is one of them. The swimming pool also overflows with silent aesthetics. It is surrounded by a fence of a 250-year-old Japanese farmhouse. The farmhouse was assembled by a Japanese craftsman. No nail was used in the whole process, but it was fixed by ancient knotting techniques. Now there are only three people left in Japan who know this knot-tying technique. Retaining time and remembering the past is a feeling that can often be felt in the aesthetics of silence.

　　Indulge in the highest realm of old things

　　This suite makes the rich fall in love with the lonely wind and makes the designer more known. He is Axel Vervoordt, the great god of interior design in Belgium. As mentioned earlier, the designer who renovated Kanye’s mansion is him. Before providing design solutions for the rich, he also rebuilt a 16th century castle and a dilapidated brewery.

　　However, whenever labeling him, he is reluctant to admit that he is a designer, but prefers to call himself a collector and curator. At the age of 21, he bought a surrealist painter rene magritte’s painting La mémoire in 1948 for $2,400, and later sold it at a high price of $50,000. Since then, he has been active in the field of art purchase and collection with a unique aesthetic vision, and his love and interest have become a lifelong career.

　　Vervoordt fell in love with it when he was collecting antique furniture in Asia in the 1970s, and since then it has been vigorously promoted in the West.

　　For this kind of purism, Vervoordt prefers to define his own style as "rural minimalism". He opposes too many useless pretenses, removes the redundant parts and keeps the most essential ones.

　　At that time, the hotel owner invited Axel Vervoordt to design this top loft suite immediately after seeing Wabi Inspirations written by him.

　　Oscar winner+hotel madman+senior diners = Robert De Niro

　　The recent popularity of The Irishman has brought Robert De Niro, the best actor, back into our sight. He also has an identity-a real hotel madman. Yes, the Greenwich Hotel is his.

　　Before the establishment of Greenwich Hotel, as a veteran diner, he found Michelin chef Matsuhisa Shinsuke, and the two hit it off and founded the brand NOBU, which integrates food and hotels, and now there are ten in the world.

　　Recently, they opened a resort hotel Nobu Hotel Los Cabos in Mexico. MISS introduced it just a week ago. Friends who want to try NOBU restaurant can go to JW Marriott Hotel in Beijing first, which has the only NOBU restaurant in China at present.

　　The old man’s love for the hotel can be said to be passionate. After the operation of Greenwich Hotel, he announced that he would open The Wellington Hotel in Covent Garden, London, with 83 rooms, a spa and two restaurants. It was originally planned to start construction in 2017 and open in 2019 if approved by the government.

　　It will also open a 2373-acre resort in Antigua and Barbuda, a Central American island country between the Caribbean and the Atlantic Ocean, and build 77 water houses, a spa and four restaurants.

　　However, among these hotels, the Greenwich Hotel is the one that De Niro put the most effort into. Tribeca 10013, where the hotel is located, was once the most expensive postal area in the United States. De Niro’s love for this neighborhood has accumulated for a long time. First, he opened a restaurant here, The Tribeca Grill, then he opened his own film production company next door and finally opened the Greenwich Hotel.

　　De Niro was born into an artist’s family in new york. His parents divorced at the age of two, and he lived with his mother in Greenwich Village. There are many paintings in the public area of the hotel belonging to De Niro’s father. It can be said that this hotel has many spiritual sustenance for him.

　　The basic room type also starts from 5780 yuan.

　　Greenwich Hotel has 88 rooms and suites, but each room is different.

　　Not to mention the Tribeca loft suite with a price of $15,000 a night, the basic room type is RMB 5,780. It’s not cheap to carry a piece of furniture alone, such as beds of Swedish royal brand Duxiana, hand-woven Tibetan silk carpets and British leather benches.

　　There are also many attractions in public areas. The songkhla and marble floor in the lobby were inspired by the 14th century Italian palace. An Italian family business copied this style and molded each tile by hand.

　　In honor of his father, De Niro decorated his abstract paintings in the hotel.

　　The Locanda Verde restaurant serves Italian food all day. The ceiling is made of 90,000 corks collected by the Canadian Girl Guides and a stone named Goshen Schist, which has a history of more than 400 million years and can only be found in two quarries in Massachusetts and Peru.

　　Architecturally, the hotel is just around the corner of the street, but De Niro hopes that the corner can be slightly rounded. So he asked David Rockwell to customize a double-decker window, which smoothed out the sharpness. Make this corner also a punch point.

1905 movie network news "The universe is infinite, and the messenger has traces" is officially launched. Tang Zhijun, the editor-in-chief of "Shendao", Qin Cairong, Sun Yitong, a "weird" poet, and Xiaoxiao, an alien fanatic, are assembled, and the journey to find alien life will start on the same day. The film was officially released nationwide on April 1st. On the first day of its release, the film won the audience’s favor with its overwhelming reputation. This film, called "Broadening the Boundaries of China’s Science Fiction Films", has attracted the attention and recognition of all parties. "This film is a love letter for the explorer", "Exploring the universe is the reflection of exploring life, which is a treasure-class film" and "The film is absurd but profound, and after laughing, it begins to seriously think about the meaning of life".

On April 1st, the Editorial Department of Space Exploration also released the "astronaut" notice, which spanned two eras. The young Tang Zhijun was full of energy and believed in the truth that aliens must exist. Tang Zhijun, who is over half a century old, fell from the sky with the help of a crane in a spacesuit, adding a sense of absurdity. Where does this dramatic spacesuit end up? Full of suspense.

Aspect 1: the hilarious journey is absurd science fiction! A rugged journey in search of aliens

Have you ever seen aliens? Do you know where I can find aliens? Do you know how to communicate with aliens? The film "Space Exploration Editorial Department" may be able to answer your questions about alien life. The film "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department" tells an absurd story about the earth people and aliens running thousands of miles away. Tang Zhijun, editor-in-chief of Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department, is down and out, but he believes in the existence of alien life and has been obsessed with finding extraterrestrial civilization for decades. Finally, one day, he received an abnormal signal that was suspected to come from the depths of the universe, so he called we are both unhappy — to the sky’s end’s partners, and once again set foot on the journey of finding aliens with that problem that puzzled him all his life. Mysterious signal from alien civilization? Villagers freeze aliens in their own freezers? Waiting for a bird in the countryside farmland? A "psycho" group party? Tang Zhijun, editor-in-chief of Shendao, Qin Cairong, Sun Yitong, a strange poet, and Xiaoxiao, an alien fanatic, all kinds of strange and cocoa-loving characters appeared one after another, and all kinds of funny plots made people laugh.

With science fiction as the core and comedy as the shell, the film presents a southwest adventure without losing truth in absurdity and truth in fantasy. As a "divine film", the director set a unique style of "serious nonsense" at the beginning of his creation: "The story was inspired by a social news that villagers found wild aliens frozen in their refrigerators, and was moved by the sense of humor conveyed by the news, which was right in their own bad taste." At the same time, the film is full of retro trends in the 1980s and 1990s. In that era full of strange ideas, together with elements such as Qigong fever and UFO fever, it is humorous and wonderful. The story of the film itself has a deep connection with The Journey to the West. Director Kong Dashan once revealed: "From the stage of script creation, it was deliberately done, and a certain spiritual core of the ancient mythical novel The Journey to the West was interpreted from a modern perspective. The story of the film is similar to that of The Journey to the West, and it is all about a person who has great ambitions, takes his partner and embarks on a journey to find answers. The audience can understand it as a story of contemporary The Journey to the West."

Aspect 2: Seek the answer and explore the heart! Absurd but warm and healing tear emotional core

Behind the stars is the universe of more than 10 billion years, and behind the journey is a dusty past. Like "learning from the West", a group of people in the editorial department of Space Exploration experienced all kinds of difficulties and obstacles in their journey to find aliens, but at the end of the journey, they made the audience laugh and cry. From the search for aliens to the search for the meaning of life, what seems absurd in Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department is the thinking about "love". No matter how grand the universe is, it is ultimately the love between people, whether it is the miss of editor-in-chief Tang for his daughter or the companionship of his companions on the road together, it is the embodiment of love. Director Kong Dashan said: "We are human beings, and we can only explore the universe with our limited ability. We can’t know what the end of the universe looks like, and only emotions can explain everything that can’t be explained." As many viewers said to the main creator: "The film touches the emotional core with a small view. On the surface, it is a sci-fi film full of whimsy. The core is to show the relationship between people. This is a film about love."

The film "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department" aims at the countryside with a plain lens, focusing on ordinary people, making the vast universe no longer unattainable, using various expressions close to life to show sci-fi elements, and also making every audience feel when ordinary people enter the universe and enter the unknown world. This plot of standing in the field and looking up at the stars makes the audience feel more substituted. As the audience said, "It lightly depicts some joy and some heaviness, but it will also leave ripples in your heart. The film is far away from the high technology of the city. In the dusty countryside and the fields with infinite scenery, it tells the eternal yearning and pursuit of a group of people for the universe, civilization and science. " The film "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department" puts such a grand topic of the universe around each of us, which is even more shocking and makes everyone dare to dream and explore.

Aspect 3: Top with super quality team! Core creative team escort

The film "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department" went through a four-year production cycle, in which two years were carefully polished by screenwriters Kong Dashan and Wang Yitong, and two years were spent shooting and producing. As a young director’s first feature film, Kong Dashan was escorted by the core creative team of science fiction film The Wandering Earth series. The director of The Wandering Earth’s series of films and the director affectionately called "Ball Dad" by fans jointly acted as the producer of the film "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department", and joined the behind-the-scenes team from the stage of film script creation, deeply participating in it and giving away their accumulated film creation experience. In addition, the producer of The Wandering Earth series continues to be the producer in "Small Universe", and the core special effects companies of The Wandering Earth series, MORE VFX and Orange Vision, also join in the escort for the special effects of the film, striving to present a visual scene with texture in the film.

"Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department explored another possibility of China’s science fiction" Director Frant Gwo once commented on the film. Unlike the grand visual sci-fi genre film, Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department explored inward and explored the relationship between people and the world and life. As director Frant Gwo commented on the film: "The most attractive thing about the film is that everyone will gain different feelings, and everyone is Tang Zhijun in the film." Thanks to the support of his predecessors, director Kong Dashan was also grateful. He also revealed a secret of the film: "The spacesuit in the movie is the one worn by teacher The Wandering Earth. Thank you very much for the free loan from director Frant Gwo."

Aspect 4: the annual masterpiece is a high-scoring film! Multi-platform word-of-mouth leads the way to make friends at the end of the universe

After the screening of the film, Director Kong Dashan also expressed his anxiety: "I call such a strange film a folk science fiction, and I hope it doesn’t disappoint the audience." Fortunately, the high reputation along the way has laid a solid booster for the film creative team.Director Kong Dashan also described the film as an "electric wave system" type film: "Because I made this film, I met many strange friends who loved cocoa, because the electric waves connected everyone."

After watching the movie, many viewers expressed their excitement that they were moved by the film and gained their feelings: "The film gave me great surprises, which not only expressed people’s persistence in chasing dreams, but also deeply analyzed the future and thinking about life of mankind, which is worth calming down and savoring slowly." There are also viewers who find "self" through the film: "After watching the film, I feel relieved, as if some small things in my life have entangled me, which makes me stop obsessing and make me feel that the world is still beautiful." At the scene, there were two brushes and the audience shouted "There are still three brushes": "This is a film about’ looking for’, which is about each of us. Maybe the answer you get in the end is not important. What is important is that we gain insights during the search. " The film Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department has created more possibilities for China’s sci-fi movies with its bold and distinctive visual style, humorous plot, warm and profound emotional core and rich and detached imagination.
