Hum, hum.
Hum, hum.
The roar of aircraft engines lingers in our ears. The cabin space of short-range flights is slightly noisy. People always keep awake without night mode. The sound of chatting quietly surges in the cabin; Turning around, you can see the endless darkness outside the window, just like a big ship sailing on the sea in the middle of the night, accompanied by the sound of the waves, but losing its direction in the night, drifting quietly.
Nathan pres tried to focus his attention. He turned on the reading light and read the materials in his hand. But his mind was always a little loose. His frowning brow had an indisputable worry. The whole person seemed to be a little agitated. There was a slight cough in his ear and a movement of turning over. He immediately left his things beside him, Some of them stood up in a hurry and leaned out toward the other side of the aisle.
However, the baffle blocked all the sight. Nathan was unable to catch any movement, but attracted the attention of the flight attendants. The other side walked over lightly and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Presley, what can I do for you?"
Nathan glanced at the seat next to him, shook his head silently, and then whispered, "please let me know before the plane lands."
Flight attendants gently jaw head to show understanding, and then again lightly turned away.
Nathan didn't sit down again. He was still looking nervously at the seat beside him, worried all the time. Then a low voice came from behind him, "don't worry, Langley knows what he's doing."
That's Roy rockery. They're flying in the direction of the enchanted city.
The premiere of "Star Trek" in North America is in full swing, and Warner Bros. obviously has more ambition for the global box office of the film. After the end of the North American publicity, the whole crew has started a long journey of global publicity——
From London, Paris to Berlin, from Singapore, Tokyo to Seoul, from Hong Kong, Taipei to Mordor, in just two weeks, 13 cities in 10 countries on four continents have been arranged for publicity. The travel density has reached a vomit level, and they can be seen in almost every corner of the world, The average stay time of each city is within 12 hours, making full use of every minute and every second to carry out publicity.
At last, the last stop of the grand publicity tour: Mordor. The crew will spend two days and one night here, which is less than 36 hours strictly speaking. Then lanli will finish all the publicity tour, go directly from Mordor to Honolulu, return to the "Jurassic world" crew, and start shooting again.
The "Star Trek" crew is big enough and lively enough, but not all the actors' itineraries can fit in, so the lineup of each station is different.
For example, in London, all the other leading actors were absent except for the joint platform of Lanley and Nolan, but many of Lanley's best friends in Britain attended the premiere; For example, in Paris, besides Langley, Jessica chastan, Matt Damon, Timothy chalame and others have all joined the publicity team.
And Mordor, the iron triangle of Langley, Nolan and Annie will land at the premiere.
The same is true for Langley himself. Because of the shooting schedule of "Jurassic world", Langley's publicity tour ends at Mordor. However, Nolan and Annie will continue to travel to South America to join the ranks of Cassie Affleck, Michael Kane and Jessica chastan and continue the video publicity cycle.
The whole promotion will finally end in Sydney, Australia. At that time, Langley will have to ask the crew for two days' leave to complete the last stop of the promotion from Honolulu to Sydney.
The whole publicity trip was too intensive and too busy. Due to excessive fatigue, Langley had a slight discomfort and coughed when he left Berlin.
At the beginning, it was just a little cold, and lanli didn't care too much; However, after arriving in Asia, the density of publicity itinerary has risen to a higher level. Frequent going in and out between air-conditioned rooms and hot outdoor, resulting in the outbreak of fatigue; The most direct thing is that three cities were transferred in less than 24 hours from yesterday to today - in Taipei yesterday morning, in Hong Kong at night, and finally came to Mordor by red eye flight. This also made the situation of lanli more and more serious, even with a low fever.
Fortunately, the first-class seats can lie flat on their own. After boarding, lanli fell asleep.
On this trip to Mordor, lanli, Annie and Nolan were very low-key and did not attract any attention among the passengers on the same flight, but the flight attendants learned the news for the first time - the captain and the purser had a complete passenger list in their hands, which also made a lot of attention gather between the first-class passengers.
Of course, the flight attendants noticed that lanli was unwell. They still maintained their professionalism. They didn't rashly step forward to disturb lanli, and they didn't do amateur activities such as secretly taking pictures or recording. Instead, they made every effort to ensure that lanli could have a quiet and stable rest environment; But the sight of coming and going and the initiative of being on call, including a clear understanding of Nathan and Roy's identities, can show the global influence of Langley.
Nathan is really worried about the next intensive trip. He is not sure if Langley's physical condition can persist.
At this time, hearing Roy's words, Nathan didn't hold back his anxiety after all. He made a detour to Roy's side and squatted down beside his seat. "But I don't understand why Langley is willing to carry out this publicity trip. Such a dense trip makes Langley a rookie actor. Andy is very angry, He directly rejected the proposal from Warner Brothers, but Lan Li nodded and agreed
For a work of such magnitude as "Harry Potter" or "Avengers alliance", the film publicity itinerary is very intensive, but the top actors do not participate in the whole process. On the one hand, considering the intensity of the itinerary, it is better to cast a net in an all-round way than concentrate on attacking, which can expand the publicity effect; On the other hand, considering the degree of famous actors, the most typical is the Chinese market. From the first movie to the third movie, the Avengers alliance series went to the imperial capital to publicize. The cast Kasi's level is gradually rising. The more important the market is, the heavier the propaganda lineup will be.
So should Star Trek.
But the reality is that Warner Brothers regard lanli as a universal white flower oil, smearing it on every place, and arranging lanli's short two-week publicity gap so that people can't breathe. They want to squeeze all the surplus value of lanli. Such a stupid behavior was strongly rejected by andI.
To this end, Andy even directly communicated with Warner Bros. several middle and senior managers by telephone, strongly and firmly expressed his strong anger, and refused the whole publicity proposal without room for maneuver.
Warner Brothers and Andy dare not face to face, they ordered the publicity team to modify the publicity plan.
But when he learned about it, he nodded his head lightly and agreed that he would not participate in the whole publicity, but he was willing to cooperate fully in his spare time. Therefore, he missed the premieres in Barcelona and Rome and attended the publicity events in Paris and Berlin; After that, he missed the premieres in Seoul, Singapore and Tokyo, but attended the premieres in both sides of China. The whole publicity trip was still crowded and full of vomit.
Because of the publicity itinerary problem, Andy who opposes and Roy who supports also have a quarrel, but in the end, they make a decision according to the will of Langley.
Roy folded the times in his hand and thought about it carefully. Then he said to Nathan, "do you know why I want to be the manager of Langley?"
What's the problem? Nathan was in a fog, but he nodded. "I know, when you were hiking in the wild, lenley gave you a helping hand?"
"Ha, yes, but not either." Roy laughed. "He did help me when I was hiking in the wild, but I'm definitely not willing to work for him to repay his kindness. Now it's the 21st century. There are many ways to repay his kindness, and selling myself to work for him is not the best choice."
Nathan didn't laugh.
Roy didn't mind. He was still lazy. "When I met in the wild, he asked me why I chose to walk alone because I wanted to find the answer to life; Then I asked him the same question, and he gave me the answer: I don't want to forget myself. It took me a long time to understand the wisdom of life. Lanli is not only an excellent actor, but also a person who really knows how to enjoy life. "
There are too many temptations in life, such as reputation, glory, status, money, privilege, desire and so on. If you relax your vigilance a little, you may lose yourself, forget your original intention, and forget the essence of life - all efforts and struggles should be for your faith, persistence and happiness after all, If we forget these temptations in the process of chasing them, we will not be more and more happy even if we have more and more, and then we will lose the true meaning of life - the purest and simplest happiness.
Hollywood is such a place where magnesium lamps and spotlights are too dazzling. They accidentally forget their initial hearts, surrounded by huge bubbles and lose their place.
But lanli never forgot his essence, which is why he is always able to keep happy.
But Nathan didn't understand, "what does this have to do with lanli's promise of intensive travel?"
Roy was dumbfounded. "Because he didn't want to forget the don Quixotes who followed him." If not for them, Langley is still lonely on the road of pursuing his dream. He doesn't want to forget this.
