Chapter 1228

I know my own business.

Lanli knows that he is a maverick, extremely picky in his way of doing things and dealing with people. If he changes any other agent, the two sides may have quarreled for a long time; Not to mention, his insistence on artistic film and professional performance has repeatedly given up commercial film performance opportunities, which is unacceptable to most agents.

It's because of Andy Rogers that Langley is now Langley.

Therefore, after the expiration of their brokerage contract, after so many accidents and noises, lanli cut off the chaos without hesitation and finished the contract renewal work with Andy at the first time.

"It's my pleasure to have you as my agent." This sentence, Lan Li is sincere.

Andy's words got a little stuck.

To be honest, he is still a little uneasy and uneasy. After the "edge of tomorrow" of 500 million troops in North America, "gravity" and "drunken folk songs" are actually works selected by lanli himself, which is actually a kind of negation to Andy's work. Although they have completed the renewal of their contract, Andy's work has not been in place.

After "drunken folk" was filmed, Andy has been planning for lanli's future, but after two months of planning and preparation, Andy finally decided to run aground. He wholeheartedly considered and planned for lanli, hoping that lanli could take a long vacation. Andy is bound to have regret, but for the long-term development, he made an iron hand decision.

Now, the project of "pop drummer" suddenly appears out of thin air

Andy looks at lanli in a puzzled way. "You mean..."

"I'll still have a good rest according to the original plan for a period of time," said Lan Li gently. "The 'pop drummer' project is just a recommendation. Damien chazere is a very talented young man. To be honest, I really like the project "pop drummer". If it is advanced or delayed for a few months, I would be very happy to participate in it, but not now. "

Andy was a little stunned. Deep in his heart, he could not help taking a light breath. But after he reacted, he could not help frowning. "Are you sure? In my opinion, this project definitely belongs to you. It's really suitable for you. Why don't you do it? "

"Ha." Langley was dumbfounded and said, "Andy, so do you want me to play, or don't you want me to play?"

Andy's smile stayed at his mouth, slightly stiff for a moment, and then he also responded. He shrugged helplessly and looked at Lan Li in a depressed way. "Do you realize how difficult a customer you are now? If I'm not careful, I'll get dizzy. Even the established policy has deviated from the track. "

"Yes, I know." Lan Li's face was calm and agreed.

Andy nodded in agreement. "So, how do you want to recommend this project? Just as a promoter, or as a producer? "

"The difference?" Lan Li asked in a puzzled way.

Although Langley has been in Hollywood for quite a long time, and he knows enough about film production and human relations, in the final analysis, he is an actor, a pure actor. He has limited understanding and little interest in production and publicity. He is more interested in performance than in power.

"Literally." Andy simply explained, "introduction, that is to build a bridge, the rest depends on their own fortune; Production, that is the guarantor. As I said just now, "Langley hall" is not only the name of an actor for Hollywood, but also the guarantee of the quality of the work and the choice of vision. "

Lanli understood it in an instant. In his mind, Steven Spielberg, who was on last night's Oscar night, appeared.

"If you are willing to participate in the production process of this work as a producer, it won't take a few days for the project to progress." Andy continued, "but the quality of the work and the level of the director have an impact on your reputation. After all, you are not Spielberg now. Once you are involved in the production field, you need to be more careful in choosing your works."

Langley pursed the corners of his mouth slightly. "I believe Damien chazare, and I believe it's a masterpiece."

Andy looked surprised. "Really? How high is the recommendation? "

"Or do you think I'm an enthusiastic fighter for the independent film industry?" Lan Li asked with a smile.

Andy nodded seriously. "I always think so. Joel Cohen and Ethan Cohen, they've always wanted you to come back to park city again and help the Sundance Film Festival to a higher level. " They need more young blood to participate in the production of independent films. "

Langley chewed carefully.

"But seriously, you are an actor, a pure actor. You really don't have much energy for the development of the industry. It's the best example to show your support and affirmation for independent films with practical actions. " Andy added, "it's like 'detachment' and 'drunken folk', your actions are the best support."

Since the heather cross foundation, Langley has understood that the reason why public figures are rare is that their every move may cause strong social influence. Whether they are in the original intention or not, bathing in the spotlight, they will inevitably bear the corresponding burden.

The same is true for the independent film industry.

Lenley showed a smile at the bottom of his eyes. "To be honest, are you Oprah Winfrey? It's not like my agent would say such inspirational words. I thought you would encourage me to take on some commercial films and try to fill my pocket in the best years of my career. "

Andy agreed again. "Yes, I do think so. But, as an actor's professional image, this is one of your great advantages. Just like Daniel Day Lewis, I don't want to waste such advantages easily. I am a businessman and I always know how to maximize the benefits. "

The honesty of chiguoguo made Lan Li laugh happily.

"Well, if I'm willing to take over now, which one would you recommend?" Lan Li inquired curiously.

"Those projects just now?"

"Yes, the projects just now."

"Star Wars." Almost without any hesitation, Andy blurted out so quickly that Lan Li was slightly frightened. He frowned and questioned, "don't think?"

Andy nodded his head and said yes. His hands on his belly clapped lightly, as if he was beating a drum. "Lanli, I'm American, you're British. You don't know the powerful influence of Star Wars on American popular culture. It's a symbol of the times. After 30 years of precipitation, Every aspect has penetrated into every corner of society, and every actor is eager to become a part of this work. "

"Not as an actor, but as a fan, just to participate in this work is an honor." Andy said frankly that the excitement between the eyebrows could hardly be concealed, just like lanli found his favorite movie project. "I know that if you participate in it, more often, it may just become a symbol in the work, and no one can surpass the charm of the 'Star Wars', but I still hope you can play it."

Just like Natalie Portman, although she plays in the "Star Wars prequel" series, she is only a part of the project. The personal charm of the actor is completely lost in the role and story.

Lan Li's eyes showed a touch of interest, "this is the first time since we met that you have been impolite." Andy expressed strong doubts, and Langley could only change his words and say, "for the gaffe of the film project, because no actor is irreplaceable, similarly, no film project is irreplaceable, but 'Star Wars' is different."

Andy didn't deny it. He opened his hands. "Star Wars" is the reason why I became an agent. I can't get involved as an actor because I don't have talent, but I always look forward to being a part of this work. "

"You won Harrison's brokerage contract on your own initiative, didn't you?" Lan Li had a flash in his mind and thought of it.

Harrison Ford is also Andy's actor.

Rarely seen, Andy's face showed bashful embarrassment. His chubby cheek flushed slightly, and he scratched the back of his head uneasily. "When I first met Harrison, I was like a star fanatic, and even made a joke. But I believe Harrison has been used to it for a long time

From "Star Wars" to "Raiders", Harrison can definitely be called an idol of a generation with unparalleled influence.

Think back to 2015, the box office miracle created by "Star Wars: the awakening of the force" in North America amounted to 936 million US dollars, almost becoming a work with a cumulative box office of more than one billion in a single region of film history. Such a feat is enough to amaze everyone.

"But you're not going to star wars, are you?" At the end of the reminiscence, Andy has a wry smile on his lips.

Langley shrugged. "For me, the most powerful works of cultural impact are not star wars, doctor mystery and Sherlock Holmes." He will never tell Andy that it should be "the Lord of the rings" and "Harry Potter" in fact, otherwise it will expose the inconsistency of age and age, "but I am an actor, I am willing to open up possibilities, who knows? Maybe I'll be a Jedi. May the force be with you. "

"Ha ha, even though I know you're being polite. But... May the force be with you. " Andy showed a very serious expression, seriously said, just like the performance to Langley in general, "Star Wars" for Andy is the source of enthusiasm.

Langley is not sure if Andy will feel as angry and sad as countless loyal fans when "Star Wars: the last Jedi" is released at the end of 2017.
