"Do you know Langley?"
It's just a common sentence, but it immediately drives Chris to the corner. He has no way to go back. His mood is like a disordered wool ball. He can't tell the end of the thread. It's terrible.
He totally forgot about it. He forgot! Before that, whether in public or in private, he had never mentioned his relationship with lanli, and he didn't want to mention it.
Because in the past half a year, lanli has been so dazzling, so brilliant, so brilliant, just like the sun shining. It seems that everyone is praising him, from Toronto to Sundance, from golden globe to Oscar, from "buried alive" to "Crazy", step by step, and gradually climbing to a height that is hard to reach. The best actor Oscar nomination, he actually received countless people in his life in the pursuit of the Oscar nomination!
Chris didn't want to be a foil. Therefore, he refused to mention Langley, refused to let people know that he was once a roommate of Langley, and even refused to admit that he once lived in New York. It's like a scar, bleeding and purulent, successful scab, and then never want to mention.
What's more absurd is that Langley was absent from the Oscars.
Some people want it, but some people give it up. This reminds Chris of "Thor". Everything is so familiar. His self conceited and self righteous appearance has never changed, which makes people gnash their teeth.
Now, in the panic, Chris himself opened the wound and revealed the secret. The instant shame almost covered up his anger and gnawed his heart and bones. Goddamn Langley. But Chris is no longer a rookie a year ago. Under the guidance of Fisher Morgan, he also clearly realized how important a good public image is.
Brad Pitt, this is the development template that Fisher chose for him.
"Ha, we were roommates for a while." Chris tries to keep calm, trying to reveal the secret in a half joking way, showing that he doesn't care, but the turbulent mood makes his voice a little tense, and his expression is also a little unnatural, showing a really unsatisfactory effect.
Eliot and Joey exchanged their eyes again, and both of them were surprised by the fact that Langley, who has attracted the most attention in the past six months, and Chris, who is going to open the summer archives, is actually a roommate? After a brief review, we can see that there are countless contents waiting to be explored. What's more, Chris's attitude just now
"So, did Lan Li receive the invitation from Thor?" Elliot can't wait to ask, he is not a kind Santa Claus, will never give Chris a chance to breathe.
"Yes, yes." Chris tried to lengthen his ending and gain more time to think for himself, but the shame and anger in his mind still gurgled like boiling water. He couldn't calm down and think slowly. "He was invited at the beginning, but he wasn't interested in the role, so he didn't even participate in the audition." Chris added eagerly, "so I don't know how the rumor came out. When lanli knows, he will be entertained. "
After that, Chris gave a dry laugh twice, trying to liven up the atmosphere, but the effect looked really mediocre.
Joey then asked, "so did lenley recommend you to Kenneth after he declined the invitation?"
"No!" Chris's resolute words were urgent and fierce. His eyes couldn't help but stare round and burst out a fierce light. He could even clearly see the anger between his eyebrows, burning“ I won on my own strength! My own strength
Such a violent reply startled Joey. Joey was just talking about it.
First of all, Kenneth's love of Shakespeare's plays is well known. If lenley takes part in the audition, he will definitely be in favor of lenley; Secondly, lenley and Chris are roommates. They take it for granted that they will communicate with each other, especially when lenley is not interested.
But did not expect, but triggered Chris such an extreme reaction, which is more intriguing.
"I mean, we seldom talk about our work. I haven't talked about Raytheon audition with Langley; What's more, Langley didn't meet Kenneth, so naturally he didn't have a chance to mention it. " Although Chris accepted the tone and defused the radicalism in a half joking way, it is obvious that Chris can't control whether others buy it or not.
"Chris," Raytheon, "will be released in the second week of May; Lanli's "speed and passion 5" will also be shown in the same schedule. If I remember correctly, it should be the first week of May. Have you talked to Langley about it? " Eliot keenly seized the opportunity, resolutely gave up the previous topic and threw out another bait.
At this time, Eliot was quick in thinking, quick in smell and quick in reaction. Standing next to him, Joey immediately understood Eliot's intention, and secretly gave him a thumbs up, but his eyes were fixed on Chris, waiting for the big news.
"Well, No." Chris is still a little raw. When he's nervous, he has a big tongue and an Australian accent comes out again. In his mind, he was thinking about whether he should answer "yes" or "no". Which answer is the right one, but there was not enough time for him to ponder, so he could only follow the guidance of the first reaction, "we don't talk much about work and leave it in the Office, do we?"
Chris spread out his hands and showed his trademark sunny smile, trying to show his charm and win a short respite.
But obviously, Eliot didn't have such a plan. He asked aggressively, "so you haven't talked about this competition? When the two works are released one after the other, there is bound to be a fight between Mars and the earth. Who will win? What do you think? "
Chris opened his mouth and wanted to answer, but Eliot didn't stop. He continued to talk about it at length. "Recently, the rising trend of Langley is really remarkable. Even in order to devote himself to the performance, he missed the Oscars. Many people feel that it's strangling. Now, his latest movie will be released soon, and many people will be willing to support it. What's more, there are van diesel and Paul Walker that everyone loves
The anger has never been extinguished, and now Eliot's words add fuel to the fire. Chris opened his mouth again, ready to answer, but he still did not find the gap, just issued a syllable, was interrupted by Joey, "relatively speaking, 'Thor' is just the beginning of the series, in many expectations, the whole crew also bear a great pressure. As a newcomer, before Raytheon, the audience has a limited understanding of you. So, do you still have enough confidence in the box office? "
"Of course!" Chris answered without hesitation.
"Do you have any confidence in defeating Langley?" Eliot is quick to see.
"Of course!" Impulse is the devil. After destroying reason, he blurts out directly, and the burning anger almost burns up reason.
Damn blue“ The "speed and passion" series can't be put on the stage at all. The first three works are all "B-class films", with average box office, reputation and income. If it wasn't for Universal Pictures, which is really not good at shooting sequels, and has no series that can be sold, it would have been finished as early as the second one.
Such works, and "Thor" is not the same level, there is no comparability between the two! Even the movie industry thinks so——
"Speed and passion 5" chose the last week of April and the first week of May. This year's April 29 is Friday, which also means that they chose the tail of the spring show to avoid the summer show with strong players, hoping to accumulate more box office for the film due to the weakness of their competitors.
What about Thor? As the unveiling film of the 2011 summer season, paramount has been carrying out publicity since December last year. He even bought the advertising time of the Super Bowl midfield show to create momentum for the film.
There is no doubt that this is the most favorable vanguard of this year. Major film companies have shunned it. Disney simply moved "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" to the fourth week of May, which makes a relatively weak gap in the third week of May. The reason can't be more obvious. The industry thinks that the two consecutive titles of Raytheon are certain, and no one is willing to face up to such opponents.
Is it necessary to ask that Raytheon crush speed and passion 5? Isn't it a long established fact?
There was a flash of ecstasy in Eliot's eyes, and he succeeded! He has achieved his goal successfully, and if every artist works in this way, he can buy a house in Burbank this year. But Eliot didn't relax and asked again step by step, "so, do you think Thor can easily beat speed and passion 5?"
Chris tried to take his breath, but Eliot didn't give him a chance at all. The fierce flame in his chest kept burning, burning all his reason. Before he recovered, he blurted out for the third time, "of course!"
After that, Chris finally realized that something was wrong. He tried to explain that his brain was blank. He couldn't rotate for a moment and opened his mouth. He was stunned that there was no voice. He could only pull the corners of his mouth and smile to hide the sword pulling.
"Good. It's great to see you so confident." Elliot said with a smile, and then he turned and left, and so he left. We left together, and Joey.
Things changed so fast that in a flash, Chris stood alone, watching the two paparazzi, walking briskly and gradually away.
A gust of sea breeze, sweat dry, Chris can not help but play a shiver, this just reflected: just now, what happened? What's going on? Where did the paparazzi's first question come from? What's wrong with the following questions? What's the matter with all this?
Lanli, it must be lanli, malicious hype! Absolutely!
