“…… Before every performance, I had to read the script repeatedly, worrying that my lines would be wrong, that I wouldn't understand well, that my performance would not be appropriate. To be honest, after the finale, I was still a little scared of Lan Li because he was a perfectionist, and the pressure was always there. ”

Sammy was answering the question earnestly.

The press conference went very smoothly, not only Lan Li, but also the other actors in the crew were given the opportunity to answer questions, but every question was more or less related to Lan Li, which is definitely a real superstar treatment. Just like the question that was just thrown to Sammy, the reporter was concerned about Lan Li's state during the performance and whether he felt special as a rival actor. Thus, Sammy came up with the above answer.

Before he could finish speaking, Sammy noticed that the reporters in the audience were all laughing. Sammy didn't understand why, she was answering questions very seriously, why were the reporters so happy? Lan Li was really meticulous and striving for perfection on the set, but it was a good thing, because she could devote herself to the performance and give a better performance, and for a novice like her, Lan Li was like a mentor, guiding her, and so was Betty. So, what exactly are journalists laughing at?

Sammy's face was full of confusion, thinking that he had said the wrong thing, but he couldn't find the reason, so he raised his head and looked at Lan Li, casting a puzzled look, and then found that the curvature of Lan Li's mouth also rose, "Sammy, for the sake of my image, I think, this problem is good here." ”

"Haha!" The whole audience burst into laughter, and even Marcia and Tony on the stage were overjoyed.

However, Sammy still didn't understand what was happening, and his face was confused and confused. Looking back at Betty, she saw that Betty was also full of question marks, she looked at Lan Li again, and then saw those smiling eyes, which made Sammy feel a little relieved - at least there was no problem with what she had just said.

Sammy turned his head in confusion, looked at the scene of great joy, and then named the next reporter who asked a question, it was a middle-aged uncle with curly hair, a shirt that could not tell whether it was white or blue, and the top three buttons were opened at random, and a large area of silver-gray chest hair could be clearly seen, and there was a smell unique to southern Europe.

Do not understand.

Sammy was stunned, blinking, and realizing that he couldn't understand a word. First, it wasn't English, and second, she didn't know what it was. There was a lot of crackling, like beans poured from a bamboo tube, and Sammy was so dumbfounded that she even forgot to ask for help, and just sat there in a daze.

"You should put that headset on. Lan Li leaned over and whispered in Sammy's ear, pointing to the headphones on the table with her right hand.

Sammy didn't know why, but she just nodded in a daze, and put on the headphones in a hurry, but there was no sound coming from the earbuds, she looked at Lan Li in puzzlement, and then found Lan Li's helpless gaze, looked straight ahead, she also turned her head to look over, and then found that the reporter's question had ended, and sat down again.

What should I do now?

Lan Li gently patted Sammy's arm and whispered, "Don't be nervous. The reporter just asked a question in Italian, this is a translator, but with simultaneous translation, there is no problem with wearing it. ”

Sammy suddenly realized. On the table, everyone had a small machine and a pair of earplugs in front of them, Sammy didn't know what they were for, but Lan Li didn't wear them, and neither did Tony and the others, so she didn't care. I didn't expect that this was actually a synchronous translator - I had only seen it in the news before, but I didn't expect to see it in real life!

"He just asked you, how did you feel when you learned that you got the role?Because this is a special role, did the family express concerns?" Lan Li's words came over and restated the topic.

Sammy's eyes widened, and the answer immediately appeared in his mind, "It's Lan Li-Hale! I mean, Lan Li-Hale!" was already screaming in his head, but in the next second, Sammy realized that the idea was directly out of the shackles of his brain, and shouted out, his voice even trembling slightly because of excitement, "To be able to work with Lan Li, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, before I received the notice, I just finished watching 'Fast & Thrill/Emotion 5', I mean, he is really a charismatic actor." So, excitement and nervousness, that's the only thing I think. ”

The question was not answered completely, but Sammy did not notice. When young people face reporters, they don't plan their answers, they don't deliberately flatter and flatter, they just say whatever comes to mind, and the words blurt out uncontrollably.

All the reporters looked at Lan Li, and he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, "So, this is compensation just now, to avoid my revenge?"

Sammy still didn't understand a headless word, but the reporters reacted immediately - just now Sammy said that Lan Li was very strict on the set, even frightening, so Lan Li deliberately half-jokingly stopped Sammy from continuing, and now it is another ridicule. So, the scene collectively chuckled.

At this point, the reporter who had just asked the question stood up again, looked left and right, looked for the staff, and then spoke in Italian again.

The staff at the scene were a little confused for a while, hesitating and not knowing what to do, Lan Li smiled dumbly, and then took the initiative to lend a hand, "There seems to be some problems with this reporter's synchronous translator, so he can't understand the conversation just now, and needs a little help." ”

Tony, who was sitting next to him, turned his head and said in surprise, "I didn't know you could speak Italian." ”

Lan Li opened his mouth slightly and chuckled, "It's very simple, I'm British, and Britain is part of Europe, and you're American, so it's nothing unusual." In an instant, the audience burst into laughter, including Tony.

It's a language meme.

Americans are arguably one of the most "unenterprising" groups in the world, they only speak English, and even the Spanish language that is mandatory in high school, countless Americans are terrible, and any language other than English is a book for them, which is a general trend, and most Americans are like this.

Europeans, on the other hand, are multilingual, with most Europeans speaking four to five languages, or more, in addition to their own native language and the most basic English. The general trend is that the people in the north are getting worse, such as Northern Europe and Germany, while the people in Vietnam are getting worse, such as Spain and Italy.

Lan Li's simple sentence just now ridiculed the United States and Europe. The European reporters present understood in seconds, so they burst into laughter.

"Excuse me, how many languages do you know?" a reporter took the opportunity to ask loudly, without standing up to ask a question, nor asking a formal question, but just curiously asked a lace gossip.

Lan Li pursed the corners of his lips, "If it's just a 'hello' greeting, then I think I can say more than ten or twenty kinds." The relaxed and witty answer made the laughter sound again, and then Lan Li saw a person raise his right hand high, and stood up directly without even waiting for the roll call, Lan Li also nodded, and joked with the situation, "This reporter, I hope I can understand your question." ”

The reporter was also a quick thinker, and instead of choosing English to ask questions, he chose his native language, and after the "......" finished asking the question, he said in English, "Can you answer me?"

All the reporters' eyes fell on Lan Li, and then they saw Lan Li shrugging his shoulders with a smile, "Yes, I have watched a lot of Chinese movies, yes, I know director Wang/Quan/An, I have watched 'Tuya's Marriage', and its images are quite powerful." ”

Chinese?

The reporter who stood up just now was from China and asked the question in an authentic Beijing film.

In 2006, "Tuya's Marriage" won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival that year, which made director Wang/Quan/An appear in everyone's sight, and in 2010, the same work of Wang/Quan/An, "Reunion", once again won the Silver Bear Award for Best Screenplay. This year, the director came to Berlin with "White Deer Plain" and attracted a lot of attention. So, naturally, the problem revolves around the director.

But what is even more surprising is that first Italian, then Chinese, inadvertently, the heritage shown by Lan Li is really eye-catching.

Everyone says that the actors from the British Academy have a profound background, not only the basic skills of expressive acting, but also the literary background is extraordinarily brilliant, but this kind of erudition cannot be seen or touched, and people have never had an intuitive understanding, what does this mean? Shakespeare's lines can be read? Or is it a world famous book that has been read all over the place?

Today, people finally get a glimpse of it. It is not the language, but the effort and precipitation that needs to be put in behind the language, does this mean that Lan Li can watch Italian opera? You must know that the world's best opera is always sung in Italy; does this still mean that Lan Li has a preliminary understanding of China's rich history and profound culture? As one of the four ancient civilizations, China's culture and history are absolutely eye-catching.

Language is just a window, what matters is the scenery seen through the window.

In an instant, the eyes of all the reporters at the scene became meaningful: this 22-year-old actor is like a treasure, waiting to be excavated! In the thriving soil of art in Europe, an actor like Lan Li is what they want to see!
