Chapter 647

Jeff robinov and Brad Pitt are chatting and laughing. The wind of generals from the inside out makes a scene of their own in the noisy and crazy party.

This is the first time in two years since lanli arrived in New York that he has come into contact with the decision-making leaders of six major Hollywood film companies. The leading role of "tomorrow's edge" has become a bridge between lanli and such a big man for the first time. But it still doesn't mean anything. It's just an audition. There are hundreds of auditions every day in Hollywood. There is no one who stands out.

Jeff and Brad stand on one side so easily, like magnets, naturally attracting curious eyes; What's more, they are not the only bright spot. Standing beside them are familiar faces

One is David Ayer, who came to prominence with the script of "training day" and later became known as the director of "suicide team". But few people know that David is actually one of the writers of the first "speed and passion" series.

One is Michael Fassbender, who has come to the fore with his "shameless bastard". This year, he has devoted his works such as "shame", "dangerous method", "X-Men: the first battle" and so on. If the summer box office of "speed and passion 5" is not too amazing, I'm afraid that the title of "most watched actor" will fall on him this year.

Another is Jessica chastan. In 2011 alone, Jessica had seven films on the air, two of which worked with Brad, making her a model worker of the year.

This small group stands in the open space between two beach chairs casually. It seems that they just meet by accident and stop to chat. However, there is an endless stream of people coming and going around. A small corner always keeps the scale of a small group of people. In the Carnival Party, it becomes a world of its own. Other people just pass by and stay, but they can't stop. It seems that they can't integrate into their small group.

However, Langley can't be a "passer-by". He has to stop, talk to Jeff, and even beat Brad if necessary. Only in this way can he win the role. Just thinking about it in your mind makes your scalp tingle.

Not to mention the newcomers, even the second - and third tier actors who have been in the industry for many years are not willing to take this risk. Many people will choose to wait and see, wait for Jeff and Brad to finish the conversation, and then find the time to cut in and finish the audition, which will seem much easier; However, lanli knows that this is the rule of vanity fair. Even if he avoids today, he can't avoid tomorrow.

So, Lan Li chose to take the initiative.

Paul was a little nervous as he walked beside him. Although he has been wallowing in Hollywood for more than ten years, he has not attended many occasions like this. However, the protagonist today is lanli, not him. He must do a good job as a guide. Compared with lanli, he has rich experience, so he can't be nervous.

Thinking of this, Paul opened his shoulders slightly, calmed down and thought: I heard Brad was also interested in sports cars before. He vaguely remembered reading an interview in a magazine, but suddenly he couldn't remember what brand and model Brad liked.

Just between thinking, just less than 20 meters away, the pace has arrived.

However, Paul and Langley didn't rush in and interrupt the conversation. It's very impolite. Of course, people with strong personality or high power can directly interrupt the conversation according to their own rhythm and way; But for others, how to choose the time to cut into the conversation is a profound social science. Especially the noble, even the count, he will not simply and rudely interrupt other people's conversation, which is part of the cultivation.

Besides the two of them, there were three or four people standing outside the circle, holding champagne in their hands, talking in a low voice. They look like they are, but in fact, their eyes are drifting towards Jeff and Brad, and their intention is self-evident.

Under such circumstances, Paul and Langley with empty hands seem to be a little abrupt. Paul regretted that he should have asked for a glass of champagne or whisky just now. Even if he didn't drink it, he could act as a shield or a medium on such occasions. Paul looked up for the waiter.

"What's the matter?" Langley also noticed Paul's constantly turning head and asked.

Paul lowered his voice to avoid interrupting the conversation between Jeff and Brad. "Champagne." It's just a simple word. Then Paul saw the waiter not far away and raised her hand. The bunny with rabbit ears and a rabbit tail behind the bikini came over with a smile.

At this time, there was a roar of laughter in his ear. Jeff was expressing his gentlemanly manners and said to Jessica, "I just finished my whisky. I need another glass, madam?"

With a turn in his mind, he raised his voice and said to Paul with a smile, "if I were you, I would not choose champagne or whisky."

"Why?" Paul was stunned and didn't understand. At this time, bunny had already arrived. Instead of Paul, lanli said to Bunny, "Hello, can I have two rum, please?"

Bunny's tray was filled with champagne, but she didn't mind. She nodded with a smile. "Of course, no problem."

"This is not the right time to drink whisky. No one will choose to taste whisky at tea time. Even the best single malt whisky can't taste the best taste of whisky at three o'clock in the afternoon due to the change of temperature, sunshine and our own taste." Lenley nodded politely at the bunny, then looked back and explained to Paul.

Paul's reaction was half a beat slower, but he immediately noticed that Langley's voice was a little louder than usual, not obvious, but it did improve a little; The conversation between Brad and Jeff just stopped at a blank spot, and the rest of their vision shifted with their auditory instinct.

Paul didn't know that the gap was created in this way, but he was able to complete the cooperation with Langley, "so what should we drink? Don't tell me it's afternoon tea, Jesus Christ. I'm not English. It's party time Paul's reaction was a little overdone, but in the atmosphere of the fanatical party around him, it didn't seem abrupt. Instead, it made a small circle of people around him cast their eyes.

"If you can, vermouth is the best choice. Rambo once said: wise pilgrims, let the earth gush green wine spring; Hemingway made a cocktail called "death in the afternoon" with absinthe as raw material. Of course, now people call it Hemingway's champagne

Lan Li's eloquence is elegant and calm. His poems and allusions ferment a faint aroma in the pure London accent, which makes people listen to him involuntarily.

"But we're at a party now, not a pub in Paris. So, rum is the best choice. " Lanli gently raised the corner of his mouth and stopped for a moment. The noise around the swimming pool was still heard. But in a small circle centered on him, no one spoke. It seemed that everyone was waiting for the following.

Lanli didn't feel complacent or good. It was just a time difference between breathing. He then said, "a really good rum needs to be tasted twice. For the first time, you can swallow it quickly and feel the stimulation of alcohol slipping through your mouth and throat, just like a brush. It's sharp and rough; Then, for the second time, let the alcohol pause on the tip of the tongue for a while, just like the dancing steps of a ballerina, light and soft. The special fragrance of rum will be sent out little by little, slowly filling the nasal cavity, sliding down the throat, warm and supple. In the next five to 30 seconds, we can feel the ultimate enjoyment of the opera house. "

After another pause, Langley could clearly see Paul's expectation in the bottom of his eyes, "and then?"

Then, let yourself wander in the golden sun and the blue pool. A little bit of drunkenness will make this afternoon wonderful. If you like, you can put on a scarf, let the warm air surround the pores, and then dance

This humorous and relaxed tone made everyone laugh out of their own accord.

Lanli doesn't like aristocratic parties, but Arthur is a master of holding aristocratic parties.

Compared with the masquerade dance of London aristocrats, Hollywood parties can only be regarded as the primary stage of vanity fair. The so-called "primary" here is not the difference of means and tactics, but the relationship between people. Hollywood is far less intricate and intricate than London aristocrats.

Here, it's just interests first, simple and crude; But for the nobility, interest is never the most important link. Reputation, reputation, blood lineage, those who prove that the nobility is superior, are the most important. For the sake of interests, people can do without compromising means; But for the sake of family and inheritance, it is beyond imagination.

It is not difficult for Lan Li to deal with such an occasion.

"Your rum, sir." Bunny came back in a flash, very efficient. What's more, the timing is accurate, and even makes people doubt whether lanli saw the rabbit girl and consciously chose to end the conversation here, but no one knows except lanli himself.

Lanli and Paul picked up their rum from the tray respectively. The bunny was ready to turn around and leave, and then a voice came from behind, "just a moment, could you please give me a glass of rum? Thank you

Turning his head, Langley saw a bright smile, Jessica chastan. She blinked and looked at lenley playfully, but the words were to Jeff, Brad and others, "I think I can't miss this rum."
