Chapter 176

Gavin hunt tried to button his briefcase in a hurry, but because he was running fast, the button was not right at all. After several unsuccessful attempts, he simply let it go. Looking at his watch, he found that there was less than five minutes left from the appointed time. Where did he have time to manage the briefcase.

Before leaving, he had been watching "the Pacific War". For today's interview, he had been sorting out the materials of lanli last night, but so far there was too little information to be found on the Internet. Finally, he decided to watch the whole TV series. Before leaving, he just saw the eighth episode, which was so meaningful that he forgot the time.

He sprinted all the way into the hotel and rushed in before the elevator door was closed. Finally, he got a short breathing space. He looked down at the folder in his hand to confirm his question list and related information. Before he could take a breath, the elevator had reached the floor.

Gavin walked out of the elevator quickly. As he was about to speed up, he stopped and even stepped back. At this time, the corridor of the hotel was full of people, at least 30 people. It's incredible for a hotel that is always quiet and cold. It's like someone is having a party in the hotel room - but it's 10 a.m. now. Who is going to have a party at this time?

Unexpectedly, he saw the surging crowd, which made Gavin conditionally think that he was on the wrong floor, but after a serious look, he understood: these people standing in the corridor were carrying cameras, briefcases and press cards, chatting quietly, and sometimes some low laughter could be heard.

Obviously, these are all journalists who came to interview the "buried alive" crew - or, more accurately, the reporters who came to interview lanli. It's similar to him.

This kind of scene is very common in the film festival. Some popular troupes may have to be interviewed by 30 media in one afternoon, some of them are collective interviews, and five or six media will go together; Some are exclusive interviews, and important media gain their own exclusive time. While the crew was being interviewed, other media were waiting in the corridor of the hotel.

However, this is very rare for independent films like "buried alive".

Gavin didn't expect it at all. He thought it would be great to see five media today, but the actual situation is obviously off track. Gavin can't help but begin to celebrate that he made an appointment in advance before the premiere of "buried alive". Otherwise, with the professional and authoritative degree of "American weekly" and his own position in the industry, he has only been in the business for less than two years, Want to get an exclusive interview before these media? It's almost impossible. Judging from the current situation, group interviews may not be able to rank in the first two groups.

After a moment's hesitation, Gavin stepped forward. In an instant, all the people in the corridor cast their eyes together. The heavy eyes could clearly see the complex emotions of speculation, inquiry, doubt and so on. Gavin was a little soft footed and walked forward with trembling, as if walking through hell. The evil spirits on both sides were eyeing, Any little mistake can be looted and eaten clean.

In a passage less than 20 yards, Gavin was sweating and blushing. He didn't know whether it was the result of running all the way or the negative effect of too much inner pressure.

He stopped at the door of the hotel room, coughed, cleared his throat, pinched the sweat of his palm, and then knocked on the door. In an instant, all his eyes turned into sharp knives and stabbed Gavin on his back. Everyone was wondering: who in the world got the first interview qualification of lanli?

What Gavin doesn't know is that after the premiere of "bury alive", at least 13 media tried to make an appointment with Andy for lanli's first interview. If the number before the premiere was added, the number of appointments directly exceeded 30.

Special interview is different from ordinary publicity interview. Whether it is a single media or a group of media, the questions of ordinary interview are relatively simple, mainly around the publicity content. Such an interview is more like a social activity. In short, there are less dry goods; However, special interviews are much more professional. Whether it's publicity projects or interviewees, they will be more in-depth, including set gags, actor anecdotes, gossip, controversial events and so on.

The same problem, in the ordinary interview, the interviewee can often play Tai Chi, a word on the past; But in the special interview, the reporter is bound to break the casserole to ask the end. Sometimes the interviewee is conquered. Afterwards, the public relations person and the agent have to mend their way to avoid the situation from expanding, or they will be directly reported.

These two kinds of interviews are not the same thing at all. In addition, special interviews also appear more in magazines, while newspaper interviews are relatively less.

Before the "Pacific War" crew gave an interview to "Vanity Fair", which was a typical ordinary interview. Although Daisy Lucas asked a little in-depth questions, the final published part was very limited - because the real protagonists were Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, not a nobody.

Even in the Toronto Film Festival, because of the large number of films and the number of stars, exclusive interviews are indispensable, but the number is also very limited. But this time, it's different. It's already eye-catching on the international stage such as the Toronto Film Festival. Coupled with the previous mysticism, the reporters found that so far, Langley has never received an exclusive interview from any media.

This time, everyone will explode completely. The appointment for an exclusive interview flew over like a piece of paper. However, the first interview from 10:00 to 10:30 this morning couldn't be made“ The "New York Times" made an appointment for the second one, and the "Hollywood Reporter" made an appointment for the third one. Both of them are the top media in the industry, but they didn't make an appointment for the first time. This really made the major media break through their glasses. At this time, people are more curious, so who defeated the two media?

A reporter recognized Gavin, quickly came forward, patted Gavin on the shoulder, "what are you doing? Everyone here is queuing up, waiting for the first media to get an exclusive interview. Don't come and make trouble

Gavin looked back and saw that it was Cornell McGregor of entertainment weekly. "If you want to make an appointment now, it's going to be tomorrow. I came here today to see if I could fish in troubled waters during the group interview. In the afternoon, the whole crew interviewed and arranged for three hours. We expect that we will have to wait for a long time. "

In Cornell's opinion, Gavin is obviously not qualified. "American weekly" is quite authoritative in gossip news, but it can't be ranked at the Toronto Film Festival at all.

Gavin opened his mouth to explain. The door of the room suddenly opened, and Andy Rogers, the top agent in the industry, appeared in the sight. Many people have dealt with him. This sound interrupts the conversation between Gavin and Cornell. Both of them look at it together. Cornell pulls Gavin back, but Andy asks, "Gavin hunt?"

Gavin quickly nods and hands over his press card. Andy glances and nods. His face is still smiling and jokingly says, "you're late."

Gavington was embarrassed. "I'm sorry." The jealousy light coming from the whole corridor could almost melt Gavin.

Andy didn't say much. He said indifferently, "the wasted time is yours, not Langley's Anyway, at 10:30, reporters from the "New York Times" will come in and cut off the interview. Then Andy opens the door and gives way.

Gavin immediately got nervous, patted Cornell on the shoulder, and without saying much, went straight into the room. Then Cornell watched as Andy closed the door with a smile. He was completely stunned. What's the matter?

Gavin strides into the hall, and then sees Lan Li reading on the sofa. Today, he is wearing a dark blue polka dot tennis shirt, which is matched with a light gray casual suit pants. On the armrest of the sofa, there is a wine red sweater. His simple and clean dress reveals an indescribable elegance, Gavin was naturally associated with Cambridge University - or Oxford University or something like that.

"Sorry, I'm late. Gavin hunt. " Gavin strode forward, and Lan Li stood up and stretched out his right hand. They simply shook hands. Gavin quickly put down his briefcase and information, which made Lan Li laugh. "Don't worry, this is my first interview. I'm more nervous than you."

Gavin chuckled and glanced at the book that lanli had put on his desk. It was Jean Henri Fabre's "insect story"“ Is reading your hobby

"Oh, no, just to pass the time." Blue Li waved his hand, "you know, when waiting for the plane, waiting for the subway, a book can always make time pass faster."

Gavin was slightly relieved by the relaxed tone. "I thought you were a Book enthusiast, because you look like this kind of person."

"Maybe it can help the public to have a good impression on me, but I don't want to carry such image burden. I'm too tired." Gavin laughs again with Langley's playful tone. He can't help but think of Natalie Portman. In her public relations promotion, the degree of Harvard University is always an important part. Emma Watson, who enrolled in Brown University last year, obviously plans to follow this path.

Gavin was a little surprised, but not too surprised. In the past few days, he only knew a small part of Langley, didn't he?

"Well, I'd better start with the basic information. What kind of person are you?"
