Robin Roberts is a little flustered now.
Before tonight, Robin has seen a lot of big waves and big scenes, calm, methodical and flexible, which is her style, and also the reason why she became the red carpet host - for the Oscar red carpet, what she needs is not humor and witty words, but calm and calm.
But now, Robin found that this is not an easy thing.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are interviewing her; At the beginning of the red carpet, there was an unprecedented wave of support. The call of "young master" made people passionate and enthusiastic. On one side is the first couple in Hollywood, on the other is the first person of the new generation in Hollywood. How to choose?
According to the usual choice, Robin should finish the interview with the artists in front of him in a hurry and wish him a smooth evening; Then he intercepted Lan Li in time and started the second interview.
However, the interview between Brad and Angelina has just begun. The interview still revolves around Angelina's evening dress. It doesn't really start at all. It's not polite and reckless to end it now.
This is torture, dilemma, will be the scene of everyone on the charcoal grill, the real suffering. So, what should she do?
Robin's brain is running fast, trying to find a suitable solution. However, it is not easy; What's more, she also needs to continue the interview in her hand. She has two or three purposes. She feels that her brain capacity is not enough.
At this moment, Brad's voice came over, "Hey, look, one of my favorite new generation actors is on the stage. How about inviting him to come and accept the interview?"
"Pa", the light bulb in Robin's mind suddenly lights up and pushes the boat along the water, "Oh, right? I don't know. Do you even pay attention to the new generation of actors? "
Brad chuckled gracefully. "Of course, someone has seen love crazy over and over again at home a dozen times. Even if you want to ignore it, it's not easy. "
Angelina also received the signal and said, "statement, not me."
Brad and Angelina exchanged an exaggerated look, as if they were blaming each other and shirking their responsibilities. Then Brad gave up and said, "Max, that must be max."
Maddox chivan Jolie Pitt, Angelina's first child adopted in Cambodia in 2002; In 2005, Brad applied to become his adoptive father. This year, marquardos is only ten years old, obviously not the audience of "crazy love".
This coming and going of ridicule, the awkward atmosphere has been slightly eased; Then, Robin's eyes caught the focus of today's figure, "blue Li, here, blue Li!"
But then Robin realized that the roaring reporters on both sides were so loud that her voice was completely drowned out. The microphone in her hand and the amplified volume were all recorded in the camera and transmitted to the audience in front of the TV through live broadcast. However, on the red carpet, her voice had no additive effect.
Fanatical reporters, like octopus, tried their best to call lanli's name, trying to attract his attention and keep his pace. The reporters on both sides were boiling up, and the scene was out of control for a time.
Again, even if he saw it with his own eyes, Robin still felt strange. Tonight's Oscar, really crazy.
"Wow, it seems that I'm not the only one who likes this actor." Robin sighed and joked. After enlivening the atmosphere, Robin, holding a microphone, motioned to Brad and Angelina. Then he directed the camera, followed his own steps, and walked toward the location of Langley, "Langley!"
After the pause, Robin can finally meet the new generation actor face to face.
In the camera lens, Lan Li's picture is captured. The young actor's face appears in front of the camera lens. The smile at the corner of his mouth still does not dissipate. His eyes are widened. A touch of doubt appears in his dark brown eyes, as if to say, "who's calling me?"
At this moment, there are not many people sitting in front of the TV, waiting for the live broadcast of the award ceremony. In recent years, even the ratings and the number of viewers of the award ceremony have been declining; The red carpet, which has a relatively low degree of attention, has been ignored——
The red carpet lasts for 90 minutes, and the appearance time of top artists is not fixed, and the interview time is only about five minutes, so the attention and visibility are really not high. People can wait for the award ceremony to be over and watch the artists' red carpet shapes in the form of photos, especially the summary and selection of fashion magazines. It's simple and fast.
Mark lacante is one of the few spectators, along with Christine schutler, Katarina coffler and chuck Smith.
"Ah, ah Katarina couldn't control her emotions. Looking at the blue Li on the big screen, she screamed wildly. There was no redundant words or actions. She just held her cheek in her hands and screamed wildly. Her feet were still stepping on the small jump step in situ. She used every muscle of her body to convey her excitement.
Not only Christine, but also Christine and mark can't help it.
It's only a month since we met at the Berlin Film Festival; What's amazing is that there was no special feeling when we talked face to face at the beginning, but today, with the interval between the TV screens, the light belonging to the artists suddenly burst out, dazzling.
Chuck looked at his friends in surprise. Mark and Christine also stood up and began to shout. After a moment's hesitation, he still couldn't bear it. He clenched his right fist and began to join the shouting.
"Shut up There was a violent roar from the next door neighbor, which made all four young people keep their mouths shut - it's 4 p.m. in Los Angeles and 12 p.m. in Berlin.
Four young people looked at each other, exchanged a line of sight, and burst into laughter at the same time. However, immediately they covered their mouths to avoid disturbing the neighbors again, but the excitement in their eyes could not be suppressed.
In fact, on the North American continent, there are not many viewers who keep pace with mark and others. Screams, shouts and cheers were heard all the time.
According to statistics, the moment that lanli appeared on the TV screen attracted more than 13 million viewers across the United States; After that, at the interview time when Langley was in the same frame with Brad and Angelina, the audience further soared to 15 million, creating the best performance since the millennium.
As a reference, the average number of red carpet viewers has not crossed the 10 million threshold for a long time.
"Good evening, Langley hall. Welcome to the Oscars." Robin's eyes showed a touch of astonishment, a moment of soul stirring, can not help but palpitating“ If I remember correctly, is this your first time to attend the Oscars? "
"Yes. Last year, because of some unexpected conditions, I regret to be absent. " Lan Li replied with a smile, and then raised his eyebrows. "This year, it's almost the same. Hoo, that's dangerous. "
Robin couldn't help laughing with all the self teasing, humor and etiquette. "Believe me, it's a happy event for all the audience." After a response, without stopping, Robin stepped aside and motioned to Lan Li to look over. "Besides me, there are two other friends who are welcoming you. In fact, we were just talking about your work. "
Brad and Angelina?
Lan Li's eyes flashed quietly. Tonight's red carpet, originally he felt strange, always choose to appear in the first half, but today chose the first half of the second half, seems to be some abnormal; But Andy and Lydia after communication, confirmed the order of the appearance, this is the request from the college——
Last year, Langley missed the Oscars; This year, Langley has become the hottest and most eye-catching actor in the past month, even if it is not in the way Langley likes, but in fact, Langley seems to have become one of the important ratings guarantees of the Oscars. The Grammy Awards ceremony has proved this point, and the subsequent waves have proved this point again.
Therefore, the college took the initiative to put forward the request.
Andy and Lydia both think that Langley can show some sincerity appropriately. Choose the second half of the stage, a small compromise, but you can enjoy the host and guest, why not. Lan Li nodded and agreed.
Facts have proved the correct choice of the college, and the red carpet ratings are the best proof. But for Langley and Brad, things are a little tricky.
However, Lan Li didn't show any unusual look and said with a smile, "no wonder my ears just itched."
Itchy ears means that others speak ill of themselves.
Robin slightly Leng Leng, and then reaction, blue Li is joking, immediately burst into laughter, "well, welcome to join the supervision." Proper response and humor are not her strong points. Then, Robin leads blue Li and the camera back to Brad and Angelina.
Robin introduces himself to the TV, while Lanley shakes hands with Brad and Angelina and says, "we were just discussing 'crazy love'. Brad and Angelina obviously like this work very much."
"Really?" Lan Li revealed a slight surprise, "I thought you would like me more." Instead of traditional politeness, Lan Li didn't praise "penalty becomes gold" and "tree of life", but continued along the words.
"It was also an excellent work, and unfortunately, it didn't win the nomination." Angelina expressed her stranglehold.
Lanli nodded. "That's what I mean." There is no nomination, so it is not a competitor; The same nomination, that is the bayonet red duel.
Obscure but sharp, polite and humorous, it reminds the audience in such an ingenious way that Langley and Brad are positive competitors. There is no harmony, but there is no tit for tat, clever and wonderful, all of a sudden, everyone showed a smile, sincere.
