"Either I quit the project or he's gone."
Lanli's understated words just came out, but created a huge effect of thunder on the ground. Wallace was almost choked by his own saliva: Although he was looking forward to exclusive, was it too strong and fierce? He always felt as if he knew something he shouldn't know, and then the back of his neck began to chill.
He swears; He is really a good citizen! He is serious, he will take the initiative to help the elderly cross the road!
Wallace tried to calm himself down, but it was not easy in the face of the heavy news from Langley. Now he finally knows why no one else is willing to offend Langley. Now he also knows why Honolulu has gathered more than 40 paparazzi, but he has been in the business for less than two years. He got the job - he thought it was pie in the sky, but now it seems that he may be killed by the big pie.
God, is it too late for him to run away?
Thinking about it, Wallace's face was almost ready to cry. He tried his best to squeeze out a smile, but the smile was more ferocious than a sad face, "... Master lanli, don't make fun of me. I'm a small role. I can't do this kind of joke."
"Ha ha." Instead, Lan Li chuckled, "if you can be a brave fighter of paparazzi, if you are afraid that the news you disclose is too strong and you are afraid of your hands and feet, you will miss 100 million. I think you should be happy now, don't you?"
Wallace: OK... Seems to be right.
He was simply shocked by Lan Li's frankness and frankness. Who would have thought that Lan Li would directly expose himself like this? But after a careful and in-depth analysis, he actually has no loss. Wait a minute. Why does he feel that something is wrong? He always feels that he seems to have missed a key point.
Lanli can sense the childishness of the paparazzi in front of him. In fact, lanli hopes to face the old doggies. Because of his excellent ability of interest calculation, it is easier to negotiate and trade; But now in the face of rookies, although blue Li can easily lead each other by the nose, but the cost of energy is still significantly increased. I don't know what kind of psychology Thomas had in mind to find a rookie paparazzi.
What Lan Li doesn't know is that the old dogs are timid and repulsive to this kind of work of catching Lan Li alone. No one dares to do it. If they are not careful, they may be swallowed by Lan Li. Although the news about Lanley's private life is worth a lot of money, paparazzi are more willing to act collectively - the only treatment in Hollywood history.
Lanli didn't think much at this time, and then he said, from firmly controlling the other party's attention, quietly completing the subtle hint, "now, what I need you to do is to stand up and prove that your action is instigated by someone behind your back, and he also prepared the groundwork for you to sneak into the crew. It would be great to be able to disclose the details of his deal with you. "
"You're asking me to betray my employer. So, what can I get out of it? " Wallace finally regained his mind a little, and noticed something was wrong in his mind.
In fact, lanli's words contain a lot of information, and the deep meaning behind them is worth studying. But now Wallace can only understand the most direct meaning from the surface tension. He needs to keep up with lanli's thinking rhythm, although it is very difficult.
"Good?" Lanli chuckled. "You've become an exclusive. That's the good. Don't you realize that?"
Wallace looked at lanli in bewilderment. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say why. "What if I refuse?"
"Don't be so naive. I've got all the evidence. Even if you don't tell me, I can still act according to the original plan. How did I detect that you entered the cast and invited you to come over? " One of Langley's rhetorical questions, without sarcasm or contempt, made Wallace's cheek a little hot - he felt like he had fallen into the trap.
But Wallace still tried to struggle, "but you still need my help."
"No, you're not quite right." Lan Li shook his head slightly. The gentleman's smile on his face was always on the corner of his mouth. There was a sense of closeness. "Let's see what happens if you don't help. The news will also come out, and I will also accuse someone of creating discord in the crew. I will also bring out the evidence I have in hand, and then all the focus will be attracted to the internal strife of the crew. Then, the person who has mastered the key truth will be the only exclusive one in the United States. "
That's... "Me?" Wallace suddenly realized.
Then Wallace looked up and saw the gentle smile of lanli, "you are helping yourself. As for whether you are willing to say it or not, it only affects you. The process of things will not be affected."
The actual situation is not so simple: the paparazzi are led by Andy and Lydia to Honolulu. If they want to deliberately explode the conflict as planned without Thomas' intervention, they need to make more preparations and take more risks; But now that Thomas has taken the initiative, things have changed——
If Andy acts rashly now, then Langley can take the opportunity to accuse Thomas of unscrupulous, and Thomas can also accuse Langley of trying to hype the scandal.
In other words, in the absence of direct evidence, everything depends on one mouth, and rumors will only become more and more rampant. In a short time, the negative influence of the crew is inevitable.
According to Andy's original plan, they use this event to force the palace, because Thomas's behavior has affected the shooting process of the film, and the final loss is universal pictures itself. They will not ask universal pictures to really kick Thomas out of the crew, just let Thomas leave Honolulu and stop interfering in the shooting work of the crew.
Andy believes Ron Mayer will make the right choice.
But Nina's note gives lanli another idea: the crew is not monolithic, so if today's paparazzi sneaking into the crew can instigate rebellion, things may change a lot.
First of all, the evidence against Thomas changed from shadowy to conclusive; Secondly, there may be voices of dissatisfaction with Thomas within the crew. Whether it's to expose the news to paparazzi or to keep it in Universal Pictures, as long as senior executives know, and even Wall Street investors know, Thomas's prestige will inevitably be shaken. Of course, Rome wasn't built in a day, and Thomas's foundation can't be pulled up at one time, But through a little bit of mistrust accumulated over time, it began to erode.
The plan against the paparazzi is a bit dangerous. First, lanli doesn't have many chips to let the paparazzi support himself in turn. The price may be that he needs to sacrifice his private life, but this is also what lanli doesn't want. If he can, he wants to cover the White Wolf empty handed - yes, lanli is so greedy, he wants to attack Thomas and refuses to sacrifice; Second, if the paparazzi not only failed to be instigated, but also revealed lanli's behavior, the situation might be reversed.
But Langley hesitated again and again and decided to give it a go, winning that the name "Langley hall" has more appeal and influence than "Thomas Tour". Passive attack is never more effective than active attack. Lan Li is willing to try.
If he can, lanli hopes to be old-fashioned, because the exchange of interests will become much easier and things will be easier to control; But now it is a rookie, so we can only create traps and guide them step by step.
"You're doing yourself a favor." Wallace chewed these words carefully, he always felt that something was wrong, but all the ways of thinking in his mind had entered the framework under the guidance of Langley. His mind was bound to some extent, and he could not see other possibilities in a short time, which made him very confused.
Wallace said hesitantly, "what if I still refuse to speak?"
"Then you can leave now, I will follow the plan, and then you can see if things are going as expected." Lan Li said confidently.
Looking at lanli's calm expression, Wallace suddenly remembered one thing: the top management of Universal Pictures supported lanli, which not only offered record breaking film remuneration, but also gave lanli huge power, which was the fundamental reason for Thomas' dissatisfaction; But the problem is that Langley now has the support of Steven Spielberg, Frank Marshall and Ron Meyer, while Thomas tour is in a disadvantageous situation of fighting alone.
If things do break out, does universal support lenley or Thomas? It goes without saying.
Wallace originally just wanted to stir up gossip, but he didn't think about it at all. But now he has to think deeply and marvel. But what's wrong“ Why do I think you're lying to me? "
"Ha ha, do you think I'm lying?" Lan Li is still calm and smiling, and there is no reason to doubt his elegant gentleman image——
The only thing is that the top management of universal pictures all support lanli. This is the illusion created by universal pictures, which shows that they attach importance to lanli and win the support of the audience; But if there is a real conflict of interest, Langley and Thomas are at most in a situation of equal strength, and even Thomas, who has mastered the economic lifeline, can still have the upper hand. The situation before and after Langley signed the contract of "Jurassic world" is already different. At the beginning, in order to squeeze the momentum created by diesel With the joining of lanli, the cast has no deterrent power for the time being.
But Wallace doesn't need to know that.
Lanli showed a gentle smile to the paparazzi in front of him, just like Grandma wolf waving lollipops to little loli.
