Four hundred people. 200 million dollars.

It was like a mountain, heavy on felicity's shoulder - before, she was still worried about how to get along with Langley; But now, she has to concentrate more on herself, otherwise, a little distraction or deviation, she may be dereliction of duty.

The reaction speed was a little slow. Felicity noticed that lanli had turned around and left. She quickly turned around and trotted to catch up with her.

"Lan Li? Blue Felicity ran to lanli's side. Countless thoughts were surging in her mind. She tried to ask questions but couldn't find a clue. She forced herself to take a deep breath and calm down a little. Then she asked, "at the beginning, what did you think when you played the leading role in a large commercial film for the first time?"

That's "tomorrow's edge", just after "crazy love".

"I'm not sure. It's a long time ago." Lanli seriously recalled, "I remember that time..." then, lanli and felicity walked to the direction of studio 14 side by side. You talked to me one word, and unknowingly they got back to know each other.

Alison still didn't leave.

She appeared on the road of lanli and felicity, and took the initiative to greet them. After a brief greeting, she used "something needs to be discussed" as a reason to give felicity eye hints, hoping to interrupt their conversation and take felicity away. She still can't avoid worrying.

Lanli didn't interfere. He just stood by quietly.

Felicity did not panic, simply said "later", refused to respond to Alison's hint; But Alison is still reluctant to give up, trying to convince felicity again, but her entanglement did not last long - because of the mental pressure of Langley.

Lanli didn't need to speak at all. He just stood aside with a smile and politeness, and didn't choose to avoid. He always looked at felicity - if felicity asked him to leave, he would definitely step forward; But felicity didn't give a hint, and he didn't move.

The elegant gentleman's words and deeds, but in the invisible created a huge pressure, Alison could not effectively organize the language, let alone action, bathed in the blue Li's gaze, she finally chose to give up, added "things can wait", and then withdrew.

Lanli and felicity step forward again. He looks at felicity and asks, "is everything ok?"

That look made felicity think of Jacob again.

She nodded, smiling. "Good. Everything's fine. She... She's just worried about me. " He didn't say much, and Langley didn't ask much - the position of the agent decided that their consideration was destined to be different, and this matter was left behind.

Alison stood in the same place, struggling and hesitating for a long time, and finally put down her mobile phone.

At a certain moment, she had an impulse to call Harvey Weinstein to report in advance and ask for a solution, but deep in her heart, she knew that it was irrational and unwise: she had no need to report felicity's move to Harvey; And actor cooperation in Hollywood can't be more normal. It has nothing to do with the opposition of the award season.

In fact, she also knew how crazy and stupid that thought was, even without reason; But this kind of idea still can't help drilling out.

As an agent, she knows that felicity's current position is hard won. The rise of the "theory of everything" can be described as a combination of time, place and people. She also hopes that felicity can soar like Jennifer Lawrence; At the same time, she also knows how overbearing and unreasonable Harvey is. When she is used to the upper position, she doesn't like others' refusal or other thoughts. Even if Harvey is unreasonable, they have no room to resist as the weak.

Dark thoughts, like a snake lurking at the bottom of the water, sprang up inadvertently.

But in the end, Alison gave up.

It's ridiculous that Alison can't help laughing when she realizes that she has such an idea, but she also realizes that her worry about gain and loss has affected her normal judgment; Now she needs to adjust her mind and stop being muddled, otherwise the second stage of the awards season will be terrible.

"He's not a monster." Alison convinced herself. But this "he", in the end is Harvey, or Langley, only she knows.

……

Felicity doesn't know about Alison's inner struggle, but she doesn't have time to think about it. She follows Langley into studio 14, and they are still talking and laughing. Langley always has a way to hold her attention and let the conversation go on easily and interestingly.

"Hey, lanli, I caught you. Obviously, this gentleman has time to entertain ladies, but he has no time to chat with me, an old man. I don't think it's a virtue, my dear. I think you are a gentleman with a good family education. Your behavior really makes me sad

An elegant voice from the front interrupted the conversation between Langley and felicity, but the wonderful thing is that it is not abrupt at all. The gentle voice with a little sarcasm can control the rhythm of the conversation lightly - the conversation just interrupted is then seamlessly reconnected.

Felicity followed her voice and cast her eyes: she was slender, gentle and gentle. Her short dark brown hair was slightly mixed with some white hair, but she didn't look old at all. On the contrary, she added a touch of mature charm. On her bookish face, she always had a shallow smile. When she didn't see the corners of her mouth rising, she always conveyed a kind of smile, and even deliberately put on an angry face, Or can capture the light of goodwill in the fundus of the eye.

There are some contradictions and some harmony.

Such an image is slightly beyond felicity's expectation.

When felicity looked at them, the other party had come to them, stopped, put her hands in front of her, looked at lanli, and said in an elder voice, "why, are you going to introduce me? As far as I know, it should be your job. "

Obviously, he was "reprimanding" Lan Li, but he didn't feel severe at all. On the contrary, he had a funny taste.

Felicity was ready to speak, but she turned her head and looked at lanli. Then she could see a kind smile on the corner of lanli's mouth, "Ben, felicity; Felicity, Ben

But obviously, the other side is not ready to let Lan Li go, and is still muttering and complaining further, "is it so simple? Don't you have any more introductions? Oh, that's really disappointing. "

"I'm sorry, felicity. I'm a gentleman from Australia. I don't have any passion for acting. The only reason why I insist on acting is that I can meet all kinds of young people and remind them all the time that I can always be like you. I think it's also a kind of love, Please ignore the guy next to you who is too rigid to be angry. He is like an 80 year old man. He always performs all day. It's boring. Be sure to show some youth and enjoy the good time you have. Then, I'll be very, very happy to meet you, Ben Mendelsohn. "

Elegant and sensitive, witty and cunning, serious but humorous.

Ben Mendelson showed a different temperament and demeanor from the big screen of the film, which made felicity an eye opener.

When it comes to the name "Ben Mendelson", many audiences should not be familiar with it, because he has been playing a green leaf supporting role throughout his career and rarely has the opportunity to play the leading role; But when it comes to his works, that's another look, "Batman: the rise of the Dark Knight", "the darkest moment", "number one player", "Captain Marvel", "spider man: the heroic expedition" and so on.

In fact, this is an old actor with superb acting skills, which is a bit similar to Gary Oldman. Mendelson often plays some villain roles. His appearance has two contradictory qualities of elegance and cunning. He can always walk between warmth and toughness. However, his calm performance can release explosive force at the critical moment, showing a strong spiritual impact, The only regret is that he has never met a role that allows him to play his full strength.

Langley personally likes Mendelson's performance in "deep prison father son love". This British Independent film released in 2013 shows Mendelson's mixed and subtle unique temperament, which is really impressive.

Last year, Mendelson played the role of "Lost River" directed by Ryan gosling. Because of Ryan's relationship, Langley and Mendelson met three times and four times on different occasions, and each meeting can always produce different sparks. Mendelson looks like an old urchin, but in fact he is very intelligent. He always likes to tease Langley, because he knows Langley can catch those stalks, Trigger a humor that only the two of them can understand.

Even Langley once misunderstood that Mendelson was an Englishman, but in fact, he was an Australian - and he didn't have any native Australian accent, which was really amazing; He was born in Australia, and then lived in England, Germany and the United States for a long time. Later, he returned to Australia and started his acting career. This is also an important reason why he was able to "cheat" to lenley, and it has also become a hindrance between them.

This time, Mendelson will play the role of villain leader in "grand theft one". Before joining the cast, Mendelson went to London to visit Langley.

Lanli noticed that felicity was embarrassed - she was smiling, but her eyes were moving between lanli and Mendelson, trying to figure out the situation. Lanli took the initiative to explain, "felicity, Ben always likes to joke, just like when we were on the set before."

"Oh, oh, now there's a secret? And still standing in front of me? Are you starting to crowd me out? " Mendelson's protest was a real eye opener for felicity.

But without waiting for felicity to speak, another voice intervened, "is the secret being shared here? Then I'll come back later. "

... obviously, this is also a cold joke, because the other party did not turn away.
