Roy Lockley sat on the sofa, trying to keep his breathing steady, trying to suppress the confusion of his thoughts, but the subconscious movement of shaking his legs still revealed the panic and apprehension in his heart.

Years of experience in the industry have taught him that the more accidental, chaotic, and urgent it is, the more necessary it is to stay calm, and only by calming down can things be solved. However, everyone understands the truth, but when it came to the end, Roy couldn't help but panic, as if hanging in mid-air, not up or down, swaying violently.

Nathan Preese was like an ant on a hot pan, going back and forth, going around and around, across the lamp on the low table on the right-hand side, so the light was going on and on, making it more and more distracting, Roy couldn't help but close his eyes and said in a dull voice, "Nathan, sit down." You walked around like this, and it didn't help at all. ”

Nathan paused and sat down on the couch next to him, but his farts had just touched the cushion of the chair, and then he jumped up, and after all, he couldn't stay indoors, so he turned around and pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window, walked out of the balcony, and pulled out the chocolate in his pocket, trying to take in some sugar to calm himself.

However, his hands were constantly shaking, and he couldn't even open the packaging of the chocolate. This made Nathan feel a deep sense of frustration, and there was no way to vent that anger and grievance, and in the end, he could only squeeze the whole chocolate into a ball with all his might. Get angry at yourself.

Turning his head, Roy looked at Andy Rogers on the side.

Andy leaned back on the sofa chair calmly and quietly, his slightly closed eyes seemed to fall into a light sleep, and the corners of his relaxed mouth and stretched eyebrows looked calm and calm. However, the hands crossed on the belly are hitting the beat one by one, and the small movements also show the clues of the turbulent dark tide.

"Andy, didn't Lan Li say when he would be back?" Roy asked after all. They sat here, anxious and irritable, almost burned with rage, but there was still no trace of the person involved, which was really difficult to keep calm.

"Nope. Andy replied simply, pausing for a moment, as if sensing the agitation of such calm, added, "He just said that after dinner, he would be back." Today was his last day in Los Angeles and he arranged a big meal that the two little ones would surely enjoy. ”

Just when the whole of North America has been fried, when all the media is boiling, and when the negative news has gotten out of control, the protagonist of the incident is leisurely and leisurely, unhurried, not impatient, and the light and breezy posture really makes people cry and laugh.

Andy and Roy exchanged glances, and a hint of helplessness slipped across their eyes.

Then, Andy gently outlined the corners of his mouth, "You should listen to that phone call at noon." I didn't even have time to finish the gravity of the matter, just mentioning the negative coverage of Entertainment Weekly, and then Harvey Weinstein's behind-the-scenes actions. He interrupted me, do you know what he said?"

Roy's gaze showed a hint of curiosity as he looked at Andy.

He said that they were about to ride the merry-go-round, and that Anne had been waiting for twenty-five minutes for it. So, he had to hang up. Andy said with a smile.

Roy was slightly stunned and looked away in disbelief, but then Andy nodded in confirmation. Roy didn't hold back for a moment, and laughed out loud, angry and funny, patted the armrest of the couch, and thought about it, and laughed again. "Sure enough, it's Lan Li. ”

Andy also had a smile in his eyes, "Maybe, that's a good thing." ”

Throughout the awards season, Harvey Weinstein's brewing bomb was finally detonated at the right time and in the right way. On the other hand, in this year's Oscar competition, Lan Li directly lost hope, and on the other hand, Lan Li's acting career will be affected and affected in the future. At that time, Harvey, who is only covering the sky in Hollywood, only needs to push and push, and the future of Lanli will be difficult.

This is something that Andy has been worried about.

However, after the problem really detonated, Andy found that things were not as bad as he imagined, at least not the end of the world. What Andy is really worried about is Lan Li's state.

From the splendor and excitement of the concert to the suddenness and heaviness of Heather's death, everything came too fiercely and too quickly, leaving no time for reaction, and the world was already in a sea of vicissitudes.

Heather was buried on Monday. The Crosses did not inform Lan Li, and of course, their actions were beyond reproach, and there was no need for them to inform Lan Li. However, they didn't even have a single email, and put on a posture of refusing people thousands of miles away, and silently, they arranged all the aftermath, completely excluding Lan Li.

Even Andy, who was sitting on the sidelines, had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

If it weren't for Anita Tunisa secretly making a phone call to Lan Li, "I thought you could at least say goodbye once." "Lan Li didn't even know that the funeral would take place so quickly.

In the past few days, everything has been going according to plan, Lan Li has not missed any itinerary, nor has there been any emotional breakdown, and even completed all the tasks assigned by Andy perfectly.

However, it is precisely this calm that makes Andy panic and lingers.

Now, the negative press about the concert and Heather has exploded again. Andy is worried about Lan Li's reaction.

Today, according to the plan, Lan Li took the two little ones to Disneyland, from morning to evening, and planned to come back after watching the fireworks, because the holiday will end tomorrow and they will fly back to New York. Perhaps, the company of Anne and Alex, this is a good thing.

Andy's words quieted Roy. There was a dull ache in his temples. At least for this moment, he and Andy were worried and thinking about the same thing. This is really too rare for a broker. Because most agents are facing such a public relations crisis, the first thought is to stop the loss, not the artist.

"You know, sometimes, you don't look like a jerk. Roy spoke.

Andy pursed the corners of his lips and responded with a smile, "Don't curse." ”

As he spoke, the sound of tires grinding and the garage opening could be heard outside the window, and Roy stood up with a bone, and then saw Nathan's figure rushing over, and the two of them walked quickly towards the door.

Andy hesitated for a moment, just stood up, but didn't follow, just looked at the other end of the hall, and saw in the direction of the study, "Lydia, the protagonist is back." ”

After a few seconds, a figure stepped out.

This is a petite woman, even if she has a pair of red stiletto heels on her feet, her height still needs to look up to Andy, let alone face a man of Lan Li's height, but, she is wearing a black professional suit, holding a "killer" bag of the same color, and the flamboyant and powerful black explosive head outlines the outline of her personality, which cannot be underestimated.

At this time, she was still busy on the phone, but her steps were still neat and quick in the direction of the sofa in the hall, "Well, I'll call you as soon as the meeting is over...... Yes, on the list, the first fifteen, be sure to contact, even if it is not me, through the broker to get in touch. Trust me, as long as you mention Lan Li's name, they will be willing to answer the phone...... Yes, I confirmed, yes...... Okay, that's it. ”

After hanging up the phone, she raised her head and looked left and right, "What about the hero?" Although she asked a question, she didn't wait for an answer, and turned her head to look at Andy, "Don't worry, before midnight tonight, I will make sure that Lan Li's friends will receive the news and will release a relevant statement tomorrow." ”

Lydia-Brooks is a professional PR professional and a veteran of Slate PR, one of the industry's top PR firms.

She took over the PR work of Michael Jackson after his unexpected death in 2009 and made a real name for herself, but in fact, she has been in the industry for nearly a decade and enjoys a good reputation among independent filmmakers, but unfortunately she has been lacking a top name to work with, otherwise she would have been among the company's partners.

All along, Lanli needed a PR person. A profession is a profession, and Andy and Roy still can't overstep their responsibilities after all. After this incident, Andy contacted Lydia as soon as possible, threading the needle, hoping that Lydia could become Lanli's publicist. However, as for whether to nod in agreement, this is still up to Lan Li to decide.

"Also, I contacted a couple of insiders just now. Cornell and Harvey were not in direct contact. But, Harvey let it go, and the matter is not over. Lydia's footsteps stopped beside the sofa, but she didn't take the initiative to sit down, "I heard that when I was at Sundance last year, Harvey didn't suffer any loss from Lan Li?

"Lan Li put Harvey together, and the distribution rights of 'Love Crazy' fell into the hands of Focus Pictures. Andy explained simply, and Lydia nodded in understanding.

In this awards season, it is even more difficult for "Love Crazy" to get ahead, not to mention, he just happened to meet an "artist" with just the right momentum.

You come and go, you go back and forth, and the communication between Lydia and Andy is extremely simple, but also extremely easy.

As he spoke, the door opened, and Lan Li's figure appeared in sight, with a relaxed smile on his face, and he immediately noticed Andy and Lydia.

Lydia stepped forward and showed her professional gesture, "Lydia Brooks, publicist. ”

"Lan Li Hall, actor. Lan Li also introduced himself, shook the other party's right hand, then looked at Andy, and said with a chuckle, "Things are already so lively?

The words were relaxed and the expression was natural, Lan Li gentlemanly led Lydia into the hall, and then sat down on the sofa gracefully, "Does this mean that I can start my autobiography and then release the perfume?" Lan Li's eyes fell on the faces of Andy, Roy, and Lydia, and a smile flashed in his eyes, "Or are you still too anxious now?"
