Chapter 1663

After the "pop drummer" was finished, the Cohen brothers formally invited lenley, hoping that the independent film could go to Sundance; At the same time, I also hope that lenley can go to Sundance to cheer for the independent film.

Of course, like the three major European film festivals, Sundance has to screen the quality of the films to be exhibited. Only the works with excellent quality can be included in the main competition unit. In addition, there are other units to provide a platform for more independent filmmakers to show themselves.

The Cohen brothers invited the "pop drummer" early, but Damien chazare's post production has not yet been completed. Obviously, it depends on the influence of lenley. No matter what the quality of the "pop drummer" is, they all hope to invite lenley to park city to build momentum for Sundance.

As Marvel films become more and more popular, the whole film market environment is becoming more and more unfriendly to independent films and art films. As I mentioned before, "superhero tights in summer and little golden man tights in winter", these two sets of tights tightly wrap up the whole market. It is really difficult for other films to find more living space.

Even top directors like the Cohen brothers and David finch are no exception, not to mention the new generation or unknown little directors?

This year, the Cohen brothers discussed with Robert Redford that they decided to hold a special exhibition of their own directed works in Sundance. They will watch all the works of the Cohen brothers in a series. They will also appear at the scene and have face-to-face talks with fans, directors, screenwriters and so on, hoping to attract more audiences to park city.

Among them, the "drunken ballad" which created a box office miracle is naturally the top priority. They also hope that Langley can appear in person at the exhibition site of Park City, which is not only the film platform, but also the Sundance platform. This is a very, very important opportunity for independent films.

The Cohen brothers began to think about this possibility before they cooperated with "drunken folk songs". Now the first cooperation between the two sides is happy and successful. Naturally, they hope to go further and make Langley an important member in the field of independent film, and even bring Sisyphus film into their camp, Looking forward to more support for film art creation.

In fact, it's not just Langley.

The Coen brothers also hope to invite Ryan Gosling, Jack Gyllenhaal, Jessica chastan, Rooney Mara and others through Langley. They hope that they can take their new works to Sundance. Even if they don't participate in the main competition unit, it doesn't matter. They just need to show in Park City, which is enough.

This is a huge project!

For Damien, on the one hand, it's great news. At first, he hoped to be on the stage of Sundance when he wanted to make "pop drummer", but now it's so simple; On the other hand, there is huge pressure. He doesn't want his work to go wrong. That's the real disaster.

Obviously, Damien has been looking forward to the trip to Sundance for a long time.

In the face of such a situation, it's hard for lanli to refuse.

But recently, the situation is so special. Paul has just recovered, and "Star Trek" has not been finished. Langley still has no way to say in advance whether he can show up in Park City on time.

It's all up in the air. This is not a perfunctory statement.

Now in the face of Andy's rhetorical question, lanli can only keep silent.

Andy didn't hear the answer from the other end of the phone. The smile on the corner of his mouth rose, but he didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he went back to business. "Shouldn't you be on the way to the cast now? Why did you call me? What can I do for you? "

Obviously, Langley is not a character who calls or communicates frequently.

If it's just a common problem and Nathan doesn't mention it, lanli won't even care; And once the initiative to call Andy, it means there must be business, and it is likely to be important.

"I need to make dawn Johnson and Jason stanson producers of the speed and passion series." Lan Li didn't drag the mud and water either. He just said what he had been thinking for a long time in his mind.

"Cough." Nathan almost choked on his own saliva while driving. Lan Li was really a great success if he didn't make a name for himself; Although Nathan has been working for Langley for so many years, he is often unable to keep up with Langley's thinking rhythm.

Lan Li raised his eyes, looked in the rearview mirror and asked calmly, "what's the matter? Are you sick? " It's as if I don't know what kind of heavy bomb I've just thrown.

Nathan shook his head. "It's OK, it's OK!"

Andy on the other end of the phone is not so impolite as Nathan, but he also opens his mouth slightly, and his eyes show a look of surprise.

Do you know what that means?

Do you know how this really needs to work?

Do you know the impact of this power struggle?

Do you know how universal might react?

Do you know that means war on diesel?

You know

There were countless question marks in his mind, but at last Andy suppressed them all, because he knew that the answers to all these questions were in the affirmative. Langley knew clearly what his words meant, what waves he would create and what consequences he would bring.

Even more clearly than Andy.

After all, Lan Li's family background is there. He is really familiar with these intrigues and intrigues, isn't he?

Those questions just made him more stupid, but... Andy still couldn't help asking a question, "are you sure, Randy?"

"Yes." Lanli's answer is still simple and clear, crisp, without any hesitation and hesitation, and even without any ending to emphasize his position.

Andy gently shook his head, helpless and funny, and then let out a long breath, "good, tell me all you think."

In a way, Andy is ready for this day, even he is looking forward to it.

Since he entered the acting industry, lanli has never taken the initiative to attack. He is devoted to the acting world, and everything is only related to acting skills. In the face of diesel's attack, he is just passive defense; Facing the challenge of film pay, he just sticks to the bottom line; In the face of the squeeze of large film companies, he is just sticking to himself

He is a pure actor.

But it's a pity for the agent. Because Langley has more energy and more influence, he can stand at the top of the pyramid and make more waves.

It must be clarified that this is not necessarily to use one's own ability to seek personal gain, but to take more initiative in the process of film production industry: for example, going to Sundance to create more opportunities for independent films; For example, expanding the influence of the heather cross foundation to help more people; Another example is to work with Paul, Ryan and other friends to shoot a script project that they are interested in... And so on.

These are the additional influences that are separated from the performance level: simply put, "opinion leaders.".

Now, always in the passive defense, lanli has finally taken the initiative to leave the actor's comfort field, which is great news for Andy.

"In short, it literally means that dawn Johnson and Jason stanson are the producers of the series, and I need them to have more power." Lanli repeated his words again without much change.

Andy savors it, "or share van diesel's influence in the cast."

"Yes, in addition to the series of films, you can suggest that Donne and them start their own biographies for their roles. If necessary, I don't mind guest roles or even becoming nominal producers." Lanli's words are still reserved, indicating his position: he will not affect his performance work for those trivial things, and the so-called "active attack" is still limited.

"To the outside world?" Andy thinks it's a very interesting proposal.

Lan Li nodded. "I mean, what's fan afraid of most? His power is weakened, his role in the series will be weakened, and his male chauvinism can no longer remain strong... Then, we are responsible for making his nightmare come true. "

The understatement revealed a sharp and cold.

Nathan raises his eyes and looks at blue Li in the rearview mirror. He can't help shivering. He deeply believed that diesel never seemed to understand what object he provoked. Even though he had experienced so many things in the past, diesel still did not really understand.

Lenley noticed Nathan's gaze, raised his eyes, put a smile on the corner of his mouth, then withdrew his gaze and continued, "it's not only dawn and Jason, but also Michelle." Langley's words stopped for a moment. "Andy, you can ask. If I'm not wrong, Michelle has always wanted to be a producer and play a more important role in the script. So why don't we help her?"

"I don't know if Michelle wants to be a producer. I don't have much contact with her agent; But I can be sure that Michelle is not satisfied with the status quo of the cast. " Andy put his left hand on his beer belly again, and suddenly he became interested. "How do you know that?"

"She and fan are friends?" Langley ended.

Birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together, no matter where they are in any area or field. Michelle and diesel can become friends, not because Michelle is attached to diesel, but because Michelle and diesel are essentially the same kind of people, but because of the gender differences, their career path in Hollywood presents a different state.

Andy nodded softly. "I can't refute it."
