How special is this charity auction organized by Alexander Hamilton? What is the significance of Lan Li's choice of such an occasion as his return stage? What special significance does this have for the internal struggle of the Hall family? This is obviously not a hasty decision, and the deep meaning behind it is far more complicated than imagined.
First of all, we need to pay attention to one thing: The place where this charity auction is held is the Garrick Club, which in itself means that only 10% of the top elite can enter it. For other outsiders, no invitation letter is absolutely absolute. Cannot enter the venue-even the distribution of the invitation letter must go through layers of review, this is not a joke.
The Garrick Club is a private club and one of the oldest and top private clubs in London.
The concept of private clubs was first born in England in the seventeenth century. The world’s first modern private club should actually be called a gentleman’s club. It was the “White's-Club” established in 1693. The translation could be more straightforward. )”, it started as a cafe owned by Italian immigrants and gradually evolved into England’s first gentleman’s club. In the heyday of the White Club, it gathered more than half of the British aristocracy.
In the eighteenth century, Britain was still the world of men. As the literal translation of "Gentlemen's-Club" implied, in the early stages of its development, all the members received were men; in the nineteenth century, with the new British With the passing of the Voting Rights Act, more and more men of different classes have obtained the right to vote. This also means that the new class must seek a new identity, and joining a gentleman's club is often the first choice. After all, to gather people in groups, from the lower class to the upper class, they all need to re-expand their life circle.
It's like the cigar club or the whisky club in "Titanic".
The functional positioning of traditional gentleman clubs is not an entertainment venue. In fact, most of the top gentleman clubs are based on the ultimate goal of elite men’s "second home". Therefore, these top clubs are often equipped with restaurants, libraries, lounges, Bedroom, bathroom, study, etc.
So, why is it so set?
One way of thinking is the continuation of the early life of men, because boys’ and girls’ schools were very common and mainstream at the time. After leaving school, they also need a place to continue their previous life patterns in boys’ schools. This is how gentlemen’s clubs are Came into being.
Another way of saying is the extension of the family life of men. At that time, the gentlemen were mainly men with noble status. They often owned their own manor and held parties in the manor. This was also the main way for them to socialize. The press industry in the eighth century has been very developed. The banquets and parties of the nobles often become the objects of gossip and prying minds. Those parties will become the focus, and then face the dilemma of exposure of their private lives. This also makes the gentlemen clubs become the nobles and men retain a pure land The last position.
The Gentlemen’s Club is closed to the public, away from the attention of the spotlight, and away from the pressure of a huge family such as wives, children, and servants. This allows men to "be themselves" here, and even make slightly outrageous behaviors. It doesn't matter-this is not a third party who destroys the family in particular, but...gambling.
The gambling record book of the top gentleman club may be one of the most bizarre records in human history. One of the most famous and typical events occurred in the white club:
At that time, the two nobles made a bet on the famous arched glass window in the club to see which of the two raindrops on the window fell first from the top to the bottom.
It must be noted that the seats in front of the arched glass windows of the White Club are not for ordinary members. It is the most noble position in the entire club and is often assigned to the most influential members of the entire club, that is, among the top nobles. Top figure. And their lives are "betting on raindrops."
In daily life, they are absolutely impossible to show themselves like this, because they need to maintain their dignity and perfection; while in a gentleman’s club, they can do their best, and everything that happens in this space is kept in Here. No one talks too much.
In the early stages of the development of gentlemen’s clubs, politics/governance is a component that cannot be ignored. Different clubs can be regarded as the main bases for different/party/sects, as well as a place for informal discussion of important issues. The gossip rumors in it are definitely not street Side news often has important goals, and those behind the issues that the public can't see may become the key to influencing the direction of national policies.
Of course, as time progresses, the situation has also undergone many changes.
At the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century, clubs that focused on women began to emerge, and most gentlemen’s clubs began to accept applications from female members, and “gentlemen’s clubs” gradually transformed into “private clubs”.
Of course, there are still individual clubs that maintain the "gentleman" tradition. For example, the White Club. The only woman received for more than 300 years was the arrival of the Queen in 1991; another example is the Carlton-Club and Thatcher. Mrs. Er was once their only female member, and it was not until 2008 that the application for female membership was fully opened.
Among them, the White Club is undoubtedly the top private club in the UK. The current Prime Minister of the United Kingdom David Cameron (David-Cameron) is one of the members, and his father was once the club chairman; Prince Charles married Princess Diana. The bachelor party is held here, and Prince William is currently a member of the club.
From this information, it can be seen that the private club is a very, very important social platform. Although the political/government color has gradually faded away, every member's joining must go through layers of review; and every member They are the most top-notch parts of British society, and they have mastered the main lifeblood of this society.
Now, the types and styles of private clubs are diversifying. For example, the London Art Club, established in 1963, is a gathering place for top people in the British literary and artistic circles. This is the center of power behind the Royal Academy of Art in London. Joining the club often means With a breakthrough in their careers, authoritative artists from all fields of art from across the UK gathered here——
By the way, Renly received the club’s invitation to join the club in March this year, and after a one-year review period, he was able to officially become one of them.
The Garrick Club is another top private club. This club was established in 1831 and is located in the West End of London. All activities and members are closely related to drama, stage, theater, etc. It is famous for its numerous art collections, even With a theater library, the collection of theater-themed-related collections is said to be unique in the world, which makes every theater lover eager to join it.
Charles Dickens, William-Thackeray and others are all members of the Garrick Club.
However, the membership review system of the Garrick Club is very strict. It must be jointly recommended by three or more members, and then more than two-thirds of the members vote, and finally reach a certain proportion of votes before becoming a member, which also ensures that Kerry The elite level of the club members.
Renly is not yet a member of the Garrick Club-returning to London this time, Renly was jointly recommended by three members and nominated, and then the membership vote will be held; even if the vote is passed, it will have to wait as soon as possible At the beginning of next year, I can officially become a member of the club.
Among Lanly's friends, only Alexander Hamilton is a member of the Garrick Club; of course, all of them are members of the Oxford Cambridge United Club.
Alexander chose to hold a charity auction at the Garrick Club. It was a thorough consideration in itself. This is undoubtedly the best place to create momentum for Lanli’s publicity. At the same time, Lanli is now waiting for the review of joining the club, and the charity auction is also for An important option for the blue ceremony; furthermore, the Garrick Club does not have the arrogance and rigidity of the white club. They are willing to open their minds to accept the new aristocracy, rather than adhering to the old tradition three centuries ago to refuse to defend, which is very important for auctions. Guests will be invited to say that it is undoubtedly very important.
In addition, part of the reason is that the Garrick Club, located in the West End of London, has a performance stage, which can be the best venue for auctions.
But like the White Club, Carlton Club, etc., not everyone can enter the Garrick Club-this is an honor for the members, even if they are relatively open and relatively free members of the established clubs , But it still doesn’t mean that they can allow anyone to visit ~www.novelhall.com~ even for charity auctions.
Therefore, Alexandria held a charity club. All guest lists need to be reviewed by the Garrick Club. Even Red Cross officials also need to be reviewed. If it doesn’t work, it won’t work. Every guest must be investigated for identity and net worth. Every guest who enters the club can meet his social status, instead of just donating millions of pounds to get admission tickets.
Neither the initiative nor the decision-making power is in Alexander's hands.
The side proved once again that this charity auction is rare, even if they are invited by Alexander, they may not be able to enter it; in other words, many people have no chance to join the Garrick Club and look forward to using Alexander’s invitation to enter. Among them, a glimpse of the true content.
It is precisely because of this that if Lan Li is wearing hat and T jeans, it is a high probability event that the Garrick Club refuses Lan Li to enter.
Therefore, Lan Li had that kind of ridicule; therefore, the charity auction triggered so much discussion.
