“…… Next time...... Don't worry, after the release schedule of 'Me Fighting Cancer' is confirmed, I will be the first to call you...... Hehe, I believe you are better informed than I am and don't need my notification at all...... Then next time, I'm at my destination now. ”

Hanging up the phone, Andy Rogers rubbed his aching eyes, and the smile that always hung on the corners of his mouth was also dyed with a hint of exhaustion. But when it comes to exhaustion, he can't even compare to one-tenth of Lan Li, and when he looks back, sure enough, Lan Li, who was sitting in the back seat, fell asleep again.

"Keep it at a constant speed, keep it steady. Retracting his gaze, Andy lowered his voice and said to Nathan Pree, who was driving. Nathan glanced in the rearview mirror, nodded slightly, and continued to drive intently.

Outside the car window, the sunrise has just risen, tearing through the richness and silence of the night, the contradiction of tranquility and commotion at dawn is surging under the gray-blue sky, and the scenery on both sides of the road gradually becomes brighter, and the high-rise buildings on the New York territory can be faintly seen.

In just three weeks, the crew has traveled around the world, from Los Angeles to New York, then to London, Paris, Berlin and other places, followed by Singapore, Seoul and Tokyo, followed by Sydney, Canberra and Wellington, then Rio de Janeiro and Mexico City, etc., and then back to the United States to carry out propaganda in major cities.

The propaganda itinerary is really too intensive, in London in the morning, in Paris in the afternoon, and in Berlin overnight, and so on, and the time spent in the city may be only two or three hours, if more, five or six hours, and the rest of the time is always on the road. The airport should be the most familiar attraction for them.

This time, Lan Li participated in all the trips. Thanks to the internal conflicts of the previous crew, Andy reached an agreement with Universal Pictures, not only giving Lan Li the status of the third leading role, but also allowing Lan Li to participate in all the promotional trips. Prior to this, only two people, Fan and Paul, had been treated like this.

Since Lan Li did not have a manager, this time Andy put down the work at hand and followed the whole process, because he knew better than anyone how important this opportunity was to Lan Li. It is no exaggeration to say that Lan Li has now been successfully reborn as a first-line actor -

Perhaps in terms of the number of works, the height of the salary, and self-proof, Lan Li can only be regarded as the top level of the second tier at most, and he still needs more proof of works, especially commercial works that are the protagonist's sole leader, but from the perspective of popularity, after half a year of brewing, and then with the outbreak of this opportunity, the current Lan Li is the first line.

In fact, Andy knows that Lan Li doesn't like such publicity occasions, in comparison, Lan Li is still more suitable for the set, standing in front of the camera lens, his whole body is glowing, the charm of concentration, the courage to invest is enough to make everyone look sideways, you can clearly feel that he is enjoying every minute and every second.

But for the sake of the future, this thorny road still has to be persevered. Luckily, it's finally over now.

Yesterday, "Fast and Thrill/Emotion 5" officially ended all the intensive publicity in Washington, D.C., and all the crew members gathered together to hold a celebration party, and Universal Pictures generously said that the company would pay for it, and the atmosphere of the party was naturally more crazy, and it lasted until four o'clock in the morning, and it still didn't end.

However, Lan Li had to leave early.

Today, Lan Li will be back in New York to shoot his first magazine cover as an actor!

In fact, of course, there is more than one magazine that invited Lan Li to shoot the cover, to be precise, there are 19 magazines that can be named, including "Village Voice", "Variety", "American Weekly" and other magazines with top sales.

This is not a casual in-page interview, but a cover, a magazine cover with a decisive role, and it is not a collective shoot of "Speed and/Furious 5", it is Lan Li's solo cover invitation! For an actor who is the "third protagonist", this number can be described as crazy.

If you make a comparison, at the same time, there were two magazines that invited Paul Walker to shoot the cover, and none of the magazines that invited Vin Diesel.

But Andy also knows very well that Lan Li can't shoot all the covers alone, not to mention, the recent publicity is really too intensive, and the recording of the album and the shooting of "detachment" are waiting for it. Lan Li needed to relax her tense nerves a little.

After weighing, Andy declined all the invitations to shoot for the cover, and only nodded and agreed, including the "Rolling Stone" magazine that the editor-in-chief had personally called. Heavy quality is not weight, and there is not much in refinement.

In the end, it stood out from the crowd and was "Vanity Fair". gave up "variety show" and chose "Vanity Fair", mainly because of the different positioning of the two magazines.

"Vanity Fair" is currently the No. 1 selling entertainment magazine, the content includes gossip such as scandals and rumors, as well as independent films, awards season and other majors, which is most in line with the current requirements of Lan Li;

Andy, of course, is not a philanthropist either, and in exchange, Vanity Fair promises more than just a cover. In addition to this, there is an interview of at least four pages, and the full version of the interview is published on the website, another set of 16 hard photos, and a video of the shooting is published on YouTube, etc.

Strictly speaking, these are the treatment that only the first-line protagonists can get, and even the little gold man winner may not be able to receive such attention. From this point of view, it can also be seen that "Vanity Fair" is full of confidence.

So, although the celebration was not over, they had to rush from Washington to New York overnight. After a three-hour drive, when we arrived in New York, it was just in time for the baptism of the rising sun.

The breeze mixed with the refreshing moisture blows in the face, the sparse golden sunlight softens the edges and corners of the steel forest, and the mottled buildings on both sides of the road outline a decadent and gloomy urban horizon in the tranquility, hidden behind the bustle and noise. This is the unique temperament that belongs to New York.

Nathan slowed down and pulled the car to the side of the road smoothly, without any bumps, as if it were a baby's sleeping cradle. I looked at the time, but at half past eight, I arrived at the scene half an hour earlier than the appointment time, and the journey was smooth without delay.

It was still quiet inside the carriage, and Nathan glanced in the rearview mirror. Sure enough, Lan Li still slept very deeply.

Looking through the rearview mirror, you can see a small group of people cruising at the door of the warehouse not far away, about twenty or thirty people, each with excitement on their faces, dancing and talking about something, especially conspicuous in the quiet early morning. This made Nathan lean behind the wheel and try to close the distance to take a closer look, when suddenly a thought flashed through his mind, but then he couldn't believe his judgment, so he reflexively turned his head to Andy and cast an inquiring gaze, as if to say, "Is this true?"

Andy noticed the group as well. To be precise, it is not easy to ignore such a large group of people on a street with few pedestrians. Then, Andy nodded lightly and replied in the affirmative, and a smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes: that group of people is indeed a loyal fan of Lan Li.

"Vanity Fair" has an early interview preview on its official website and has produced a series of small programs. From the time Lan Li arrived in Sydney, a small clip was released every day, shooting interesting stories about Lan Li during the publicity period, ranging from 10 seconds to 30 seconds, and then dragged step by step to the final interview and release, which really attracted countless hits for "Vanity Fair".

Originally, "Vanity Fair" hoped to make full use of the advantages of the Internet social network to further expand the attention of the interview in this way, but unexpectedly, it achieved an explosive response and received numerous praises. Today it even went a step further, attracting a small number of loyal fans to cheer on the scene in person.

This reminds Andy of the crazy fans of Asian propaganda.

Looking at his watch again, there were still twenty minutes before the appointed time, Andy turned around and woke Lan Li up, "We have arrived at the shooting site, get ready, and start work." ”

Lan Li didn't react, but after about three seconds, he nodded with his eyes closed and replied, "I see." Then he took a deep breath, and then opened the car door, letting the cold air of the morning rush in, and the whole person became a little more awake, and his eyes finally opened.

Lan Li's brain was still in a state of chaos, he looked left and right, and asked, "Is that the warehouse? Shooting location?" After receiving Andy's affirmative answer, he also walked straight away, but soon, he heard a buzzing sound, and then a large circle of people surrounded him.

Lan Li's first reaction was: rush hour. New York's rush hour is powerful, and anyone who has experienced it will leave a lasting impression.

Lan Li didn't pause, but skillfully turned sideways, trying to make his way through the crowd, and continued to move forward, "I'm sorry. But soon, he found that the crowd around him seemed to be heading in the same direction as him, and the voice in his ears gradually became clear, "Young Master!

The right hand, which was originally rubbing his eyes, was put down, and he looked around for a while, and then he saw the situation clearly. This is the first time Lan Li has encountered the siege of fans on the street, and this feeling is really too strange and weird, so that Lan Li was stunned, and the chaotic thoughts in his mind were full of question marks: Haven't you woken up yet?

"Young master, you are really handsome! I love you!" A sharp shout pierced through the layers of the crowd and exploded in his ears, Lan Li couldn't help but laugh dumbly, the corners of his mouth were slightly outlined, he turned his head to look over, and said in a lazy voice, "Be careful that your boyfriend is jealous." ”
