Chapter 954

Shaking his head and nodding his head, Alfonso Caron could not hide his formality and embarrassment. He rubbed his hands awkwardly and explained in a panic, "I have a work that I want to invite you to play."

This is an unexpected answer. Lan Li chuckled, "thank you. For any actor, the invitation from his favorite director is the best praise; I can understand that you really enjoyed the performance tonight, didn't you? "

"Of course, absolutely." Alfonso's hands were dazzled with gestures, typical of Spanish - or Italian style. But Alfonso is Mexican. Is that the same system?

Alfonso continued, "before, my friend - I'm not sure you knew him, Gilmore del Toro? He watched your performance and then told me that he must come to watch it. I always have a skeptical attitude; But tonight, you really shocked me. Wait, you just said, "I'm your favorite director?"

Alfonso's English, accent is very heavy, and speak rhythm some stumbling, occasionally can also find grammatical errors; But the speed of enunciation continues the style of Spanish. I feel like I'm going to pour all the words down at once. It's a bit like machine gun. It seems that even the brain's reaction speed can't keep up with the speed of speaking. This contrast makes people laugh.

"Yes. As far as I'm concerned, I really like the two long shots of 'son of man'. However, it's not only the visual effect brought by the long lens, but also the atmosphere, the coldness and desolation behind the lens and perspective. You know, those things outside the protagonist are very impressive. Besides, prisoner Azkaban, I admire your courage Lan Li said with a smile and sincerity.

Alfonso is a low production director. After entering the 21st century, he has only made three works so far. Since the "son of man" in 2006, no new works have come out.

It's not because there's no work to take over, but because he's a technical master. Just like Robert zemikis, James Cameron and George Lucas, they are even more obsessed with technology than the film itself. They are often willing to spend a lot of time studying film technology, and then combine their own films to make wonderful contributions.

Lan Li's praise made Alfonso smile sheepishly, and his shy eyes could not help hiding. This year, I am over 50 years old, but I still have a childish heart and concentrate on the film.

In 2004, "Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban" won the love of film critics and was praised as the best in the series, with a comprehensive media rating of 82 points; However, he suffered from bad reviews from fans and bad box office performance. The results in North America and the world were the lowest in the series. This is undoubtedly a serious blow to Alfonso. However, he has never been discouraged, or devoted to the film, pure and simple.

In fact, only Alessandro is more sociable among the three great men in Mexico. Alfonso and gilmo are honest housemen, even shy and not good at words. It's not easy for such an honest man to break out in Hollywood.

"But." Lan Li's words did not end, or continued to say, "I must decline your kindness."

Lenley had to refuse the invitation.

In the face of Alfonso with a look of consternation and disappointment, lanli could not bear it. He always felt that he was bullying honest people. "As you can see, I am performing in the west end of London now, and I don't have any time for the next two and a half months." Watching Alfonso open his mouth to speak, lanli shook his head, stopped the other side, and continued, "in addition, our crew is considering going to Broadway tour, and now the itinerary has not been determined, but it is certain that in the short term, I have no time."

"Les miserables" was staged in London's west end for only two weeks. It was full and well received, and undoubtedly became the absolute focus of London in May; New York on the other side of the Atlantic has also felt the upsurge. On Broadway, some tour companies have begun to contact John cod to discuss their tour on Broadway.

As Langley said, it is still in the negotiation stage, but it is certain that at least six theaters have expressed interest and are in intensive negotiation. If there is no accident, Broadway is a certainty. The only question is: how long will the performance last? What's more, how many times does Langley have to play?

For Broadway, "Langley hall" is even more attractive than the play itself. They have to make sure that Langley plays enough times, which is a huge change in the value of the whole show's tour. It is no exaggeration to say that the value of a lanli is more than the sum of all the other actors in the cast, and it is still much more than that.

So it's not just John. Now Andy Rogers is in New York, working closely with Broadway to discuss what's next.

"Mr. Caron, please forgive me for my impoliteness." Lan Li sincerely said, not polite, but sincere, "because of schedule reasons, I have to refuse your kindness."

"But..." Alfonso didn't seem to expect such an accident, and even had no time to cut into the theme, he had been rejected. This makes Alfonso a little frustrated. He can't help thinking of his friend's advice: asking through his agent is the right way and the formal way.

However, after watching the performance today, Alfonso was so excited that he couldn't control his excitement. He came to the backstage and got the opportunity to enter the standby room by relying on the strategy of "brushing face". He just wanted to have an interview with Langley wholeheartedly, but he ignored an important fact

Everyone is eager to work with a top actor like Langley. Especially after the Oscars, the inquiry calls from the creative artists agency have exploded, but Langley is indifferent, far away from Hollywood and North America, quietly performing in the west end of London. So how can he be the exception?

"No, No." Alfonso waved his hand and tried hard to keep his spirits strong, but he still couldn't restrain his dispirited look. "I'm too abrupt. You don't have to apologize. I... Er, I don't think carefully enough." Alfonso said repeatedly, "but today's performance is really wonderful. I was going to come back tomorrow, but I don't seem to have a place

Today, Alfonso's position is reserved for the Almeida theater. Through the relationship between David Heyman, the top producer of "Harry Potter" and "I'm a legend" and other works, after many twists and turns, he finally got the entry qualification.

"Yes? If you don't mind, I can ask my friend and find you two places in the box He was sure that Richard would not mind; In addition, there should be room in Dunlop's box, and Matthew can think of a way.

Alfonso's eyes widened. "Really? God, do you know how much a ticket is worth now? " But after speaking out, Alfonso immediately realized his impoliteness: it seems inappropriate to discuss black market scalpers in front of actors. Thus, the discourse is cut off awkwardly.

But Lan Li didn't care. He chuckled, "I'll go back and confirm my bank account. If necessary, it can be my way to make money." Such ridicule, let a Fang Suo Chi Chi Chi to follow to laugh instantly.

"Are you sure you don't want to sit in the waiting room?" Lanli sends out an invitation again, and Alfonso refuses because there is a companion waiting outside.

Blue Li spread out his hands, "well, please forgive my impoliteness. I have to go back now and have a good rest. I have a whole day's work tomorrow. As for the position of the box, I will tell Nathan, my assistant, to communicate with you. "

After a few simple greetings, Lan Li left quickly without stopping.

Entering the standby room, the actors have already left most of them. After the performance, everyone is tired. They need to relax. There are no parties or parties. Everyone goes home early to conserve energy for the next day's performance. Like lanli, there are always a lot of social activities, and he is often the last to leave.

However, the waiting room is still full of laughter, especially Paul Walker's iconic sunshine laughter, which is really very familiar.

"Lan Li!" MeDo Ryan jumped up high, his face full of excitement, trotted all the way up, gave a big hug to blue Li, "God, you are really a genius! Genius! What a wonderful performance! I was shaking all the way, goose bumps fell all over the floor, so wonderful that people just want to scream, but they can't scream out! God, God! You've really left! "

MeDo was jumping up and down, screaming, and every muscle of her body was expressing her joy.

Involuntarily, Lan Li also chuckled, tired as if embracing the first ray of sunshine in spring, melting little by little, "girl, girl. Your father is watching. He's going to be jealous. "

A joke made Paul dumbfounded. He came up, gave lenley a warm hug and said, "Jesus Christ, man, you are a pervert. Why didn't I realize it before? You belong to this stage. Heather's right. "

"I'm proud enough. You don't have to feed my arrogance any more." Lan Li said with a smile, "how about six hours? I thought you couldn't hold on and left first. "

Paul and meDo arrived in London the day before yesterday. This time they came here just to support the "miserable world", but Langley didn't have time to entertain them. Matthew accompanied them all the way. Tonight, they watched the performance in the reserved seat on the second floor, not in the box, but with the same excellent view.

Originally, Paul was going to line up to buy his own tickets - in addition to the pre-sale tickets, there were a small number of tickets released three days before the performance, but the audience who bought the tickets were so enthusiastic that they didn't have a chance at all. Paul just gave up.
