Chapter 155

"Dear passengers, the plane is still taxiing. Please don't turn on your mobile phone and electronic equipment, fasten your seat belt and wait for the indicator light to go out..."

The crew's polite and gentle voice came out of the radio, but it still couldn't restrain the noise in the cabin. Andy Rogers immediately took his mobile phone out of his pocket, one, two, three, and then turned it on one by one. After the power on, the text messages came one by one, and there were 17 missed calls.

The three mobile phones are different, one for private use, two for work use, but the two work numbers are also divided into different levels, one for important contacts and customers, and the other for ordinary objects; When he handed out business cards, the phone numbers on them were different. For strangers, most of them got the latter. Andy skillfully picked up the important work mobile phone first to check the missed calls and unread messages.

All of a sudden, the ordinary work cell phone rings, glancing at the calling number, which is a strange number, so they ignore it and quickly reply to the SMS. The call rings for a long time, but it still stops. However, after less than 15 seconds, it rings again, which is the same number. Andy continues to ignore.

After all the messages in the important work cell phone were answered, Andy picked up the ordinary work cell phone. He called the same number four times and dialed back. Then the other party picked up, "this is Andy Rogers."

"Andy, this is Gavin hunt, a reporter for American weekly." Gavin introduced himself cleanly. "Are you the agent of Langley hall?"

"Yes." Andy said skillfully, "may I help you?"

"I want to have an exclusive interview with lanli. Can I make an appointment?" Gavin went straight to the point.

At this time, the important mobile phone rings. Andy glances away. It's Daisy Lucas of vanity fair. He's an old acquaintance. Instead of rushing to answer the phone, Andy says to the receiver, "Langley is attending the Toronto Film Festival now. The time can't be arranged for the moment. Let's talk about it after the festival. "

"American weekly" and "Entertainment Weekly" are the top five magazines in the circulation of American entertainment magazines, and their contents, objects and positioning are relatively close. They mainly publish gossip news, which is popular with housewives. This is indeed a very important magazine, but media interviews must also be in line with the positioning of artists. For example, actors like Sean pan, even if they are interviewed by these two magazines, the market effect is very limited.

Lanli is in the early stage of his career. On the one hand, it's a critical moment to shape his image. On the other hand, it's a period of time when he urgently needs exposure. Andy's control of the media interview is still relatively cautious, and he doesn't want to open the gate in one breath. Therefore, Andy did not immediately agree, but also did not die.

"I know. I'm in Toronto right now. I met lenley and he wanted me to call to make an appointment. " Gavin quickly explained, "I sincerely hope to have an in-depth interview with Langley, not only about the Emmy Awards, but also about his personal situation, as well as about the" live burial "of this new release. If I can, I'd like to make an issue to really get to know the new actor in depth. "

Andy is a senior agent, naturally will not be deceived by this simple rhetoric. But interestingly, from the day before yesterday to today, this is the 23rd interview appointment call - not an ordinary interview call, but an interview call. It's very unusual for new actors.

In the past few days, he has been very busy. Considering that Langley is attending a film festival in Toronto, there is no so-called publicity strategy for "buried alive" as an independent film, so there is no distraction management for the time being. However, he knows something about the basic situation. He has heard about the excitement on the Internet, Billboard single charts and the instant download charts on iTunes also capture the basics, but the impact of things seems to have exceeded his expectations.

Only just now, five of the 17 missed calls came to make an appointment for Lan Li's interview. Now "American weekly" is the sixth call. Andy is a little curious. Is the call of "Vanity Fair" related to Langley?

"Lanli now only has two works. If you want to make a special topic, the content is certainly not enough. It's estimated that it's only one page." Andy has his own way of dealing with reporters. When it's time to compromise and when it's time to be tough, he has to be tough. "We all know that American weekly wants to show more sincerity than that if it wants to interview Langley

Gavin choked.

Andy immediately knew that he was probably an inexperienced reporter. Otherwise, how could he bluff the other party in two words? The real senior reporters are all old timers, each better than the other.

"I'm serious." Gavin was a little worried and explained eagerly, "I think Langley is a very interesting actor. At the Toronto Film Festival, he watched such artistic works as' magician ',' meicuo ',' city of scorched earth ', and specially participated in the activities of Documentary Exhibition unit. He and Ryan Gosling are very close friends, They not only watched many movies together, but also attended the premiere of blue Valentine's day last night. In my opinion, his choice of "buried alive" is obviously not a random decision. I want to know more about "buried alive", but I have not found an effective way. An exclusive interview with lanli, I hope to win the opportunity of in-depth understanding. "

Gavin has poured out all the gains in the past three days. If at first he was just curious about the background of Langley, now he is really curious about the actor.

Andy gently picks his eyebrows. Last night, lanli attended the premiere of "blue Valentine's Day"? This damned guy, unexpectedly did not tell him, missed another excellent opportunity! And when did he become friends with Ryan Gosling? This is unheard of!

Andy feels a little chest tightness - because "blue Valentine's Day" has nothing to do with him, so naturally he doesn't have any special information; As for the report of the Toronto Film Festival, if his agent didn't manage it in person, he would not specifically mention the rookie lanli. So, he missed this important news. Now it seems that this morning's call is more targeted.

Andy seriously thinks that Langley needs an assistant, otherwise he knows nothing about Langley's action, which is really fatal.

"I need to confirm the schedule. Well, you make a list of questions, send it to my email, and I'll go through it. If it's of enough value, then we'll make an appointment. " Andy thought about it for a moment and gave an answer.

As a matter of fact, for blue Lee, who is committed to making a breakthrough in independent films, the interview value of "American weekly" is limited. After all, he is not keen on works of art for the group. However, Andy thinks that maybe it's good to give this reporter Gavin a chance; It may be an opportunity for lanli to open up the commercial market.

After hanging up Gavin's cell phone, the important work cell phone rings again. Looking at the caller ID, it turns out that it's Francis Parker, a senior agent of endeavor elite agency. At the beginning, Francis was one of the first agents who tried to sign up for Langley. Francis even contacted Tom Hanks through his relationship, but he failed to make up his mind in the end.

Andy and Francis both know each other, and they are polite in social occasions, but they don't have much in common in work. It's strange that Francis should call him.

The plane finally came down. Andy quickly got off the plane. He was on the phone all the way. One by one, he couldn't stop. When he arrived at lanli's Hotel, his two mobile phones were about to run out of power. He quickly put the mobile phone into his pocket, took out his private mobile phone for standby, checked into his room first, and then found lanli's room. This time, he cleverly showed his identity card that lanli's room was reserved in the name of Andy, asked for a door card from the front desk in advance, and entered the room effortlessly.

After entering the room, lanli's room was still in a mess. His suit and shirt were left on the back of the sofa and chair, while his socks and shoes were left at the kitchen door. Who knows why lanli took off his shoes there, put his bathrobe on the sofa in the hall, and his bath towel appeared on the floor at the door of the bedroom. In this way, even if Andy does not have cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder, he has a headache.

"I told you, it's a bad work."

"Unfortunately, I really liked Infernal Affairs before. Later, Martin's Infernal Affairs movie was very American, but I prefer Andrew Lau's version."

"After the" Shangcheng "film in 2006, his works lacked the sharpness and connotation, and this time is no exception."

……

The voice of their heated discussion came from the door of the room, and Andy met them. "Good morning, gentlemen."

"Oh, Andy, you've arrived. How was the journey? " Lan Li said hello with familiarity.

Andy nodded to lanli with a smile, and then introduced himself to Ryan, who was standing behind him. "I'm Andy, lanli's agent. Last night's' Blue Valentine's Day 'got a lot of praise. It seems that this year is your year again."

Ryan also took Andy's right hand and said with a smile, "I'm looking forward to the release of lanli's works now. His choice of films is an eye opener for me. Now it's time to see his performance."

"Buried alive is also his choice. So you can just trust him. " Andy said honestly, "so, will you be at the premiere?"

"Of course, it's a plan, if lenley is still welcome." Ryan casts his eyes at Lan Li, but he sees that Lan Li shrugs his shoulders and looks like "I'm not sure", which makes him stunned.

Andy said with a smile, "don't worry, there must be a seat for you on the red carpet. We can't welcome it any more." Ryan was relieved and began to smile again. "But now, would you please leave? We still have some business to deal with, you know, there's not much time left for the premiere in the evening

Ryan, he's all over the place.
