217 Frustrated
Bright's figure quickly disappeared into the surging crowd of people on the street, Andy and Lan Li stood in place, the surrounding people were still bustling and lively, and the silence and tranquility between the two slowly solidified, as if they were suddenly isolated in another world. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The development in the past half a month has been smooth, and even a little unstoppable, and the sudden landing on the reef made both of them a little stunned. Especially when he was full of confidence in the "evil boss", he mentioned the audition for this work yesterday, Lan Li was full of interest, Andy was ambitious, and both of them thought that this work was more worthy of investment than "Fast and Thrill/Love 5", and even began to sketch out the blueprint after starring in this movie, but only less than twelve hours later, now it is ......
"Lan Li! Hey, brother, the performance is wonderful! The 'buried alive' performance is really wonderful!"
Someone next to him greeted him and gave Lan Li a thumbs up, which attracted the attention of the others next to him, and a group of young people whistled and applauded, and the hotel lobby suddenly became noisy. Lan Li came back to his senses and smiled at them and nodded in thanks.
Andy also exhaled, the stuffy breath that was holding in his chest came out, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"Hehe, shouldn't I be asking you this sentence?" Lan Li chuckled, his state looking relaxed and had no effect.
Andy smiled and shook his head, "I've been used to it for a long time, but you're the first time, right?"
Although Hollywood is not the stock market of Wall Street, in this Vanity Fair, it is also ever-changing, and even after signing a contract in black and white, it can tear up the contract and go to court, not to mention just a verbal promise of an audition? In the casting process of actors, the tug-of-war between producers and agents runs throughout, and the game between agents and agents is absolutely not allowed to be taken lightly.
This is true for top stars, and even more so for up-and-coming newcomers like Lan Li.
Andy's surprise came from the fact that things had been decided so quickly, that there had been a major turn in twelve hours, and that he had not heard a word at all, and on the other hand, from the sudden frustration that had suddenly hit a wall while sprinting with all his might.
After a short period of volatility, Andy regained his composure, after all, he had seen countless winds and waves.
"I wouldn't say I'm not disappointed. Lan Li shrugged his shoulders, his eyes showing a touch of regret, and paused for a moment.
As he said, he really wants the opportunity to perform as a "bad boss", and he has even begun to build a character in his mind, and now he has not even had the opportunity to show it, and he has been rejected, which is definitely uncomfortable.
But he also knows that this is Hollywood, and the competition is fierce, and just as he can take a prey from Dwayne Johnson, others can naturally get ahead and squeeze out his auditions. What's more, his career as an actor has just begun.
The mood calmed down slightly, and Lan Li teased with a smile, "But you may not believe it, this is not the first time I've encountered rejection. Before the "Pacific War", for three months in a row, he learned to accept "rejection".
Andy chuckled, and inexplicably, he remembered Lan Li's participation in the street skateboarding competition, "Actually, it's okay, it can let us calm down a little and not be carried away by the victory." Now this long battle has just begun. ”
The recent momentum has indeed made Andy's head a little hot and his ambition swelled. But in fact, for newcomers like Lan Li, it still needs to be step-by-step and step-by-step.
The "bad boss" has come at a good time, the awards season has not yet begun, and the distribution and publicity of "Buried Alive" need to be carried out in a down-to-earth manner - "Buried Alive", which is currently attracting a lot of media attention in Toronto and Telluride, is obviously more important than unknown new works.
He needed to refresh his thinking.
In addition, the casting process of "Evil Boss" has made such a significant progress in just twelve hours, and there must have been something that has played a role in driving it, and more importantly, he has not received any news, and Bright has chosen to shut up, even avoiding the question in this way this morning. Lan Li is a newcomer, this is a fact, but he is not, he does not look at the face of the monk and looks at the face of the Buddha, this matter is not so simple.
If he remembers correctly, Jason Sudeikis's agent is Fisher Morgan, Fisher Morgan, who has a lot of connections with Blue Rites, and Fisher Morgan, who single-handedly competed for the role of "Thor" for Chris Hemsworth, although Andy didn't think Fisher would remember such a nobody as Blue Lane, but it was too much of a coincidence - before yesterday, Jason Sudeikis was not in the casting sight of the "evil boss" at all, and he was actually in the house today? This is Hollywood, where coincidences often hide the truth.
Andy can accept rejection or failure, but he can't lose unclearly, otherwise he will repeat the same mistake next time.
"Now that today's auditions are over, go and enjoy the festival. Andy didn't say what he was guessing in his heart, it was his job, not Lan Li's. "I'll call you again if there's a situation, you won't want to miss Telluride's last day. ”
The corners of Lan Li's mouth rose easily, "That's what I plan to do." ”
The Telluride Film Festival lasted only four days, four days of endless traffic and rubbing shoulders. There is no opening ceremony, and there is no closing ceremony, and the film festival will naturally come to an end after four days of such excitement.
Lan Li joined the crowd of fans and began to participate in the carnival of the film festival again, but Andy's busyness has only just begun.
"'Fast & Thrill 5' is once again welcoming a new cast member, and Lan Li-Hall, who made a big splash at the Telluride Film Festival, is about to join!"
"With his outstanding performance of 'Buried Alive', Hall has become a blockbuster and is about to join the crew of 'Fast and Thrill/Emotion 5'. ”
"The latest Emmy Awards, Lan Li Hall won the favor of commercial blockbusters, joined the strong cast lineup of 'Fast and Thrill/Emotional 5', and started a drag race battle with Vin Diesel and Paul Walker!"
……
"The crew of 'Fast and Thrill/Love 5' has not yet started filming, and it is the first to break out of infighting! Dwayne Johnson will miss the follow-up filming!"
"Earthquake Alert: Dwayne Johnson quits filming of 'Fast & Thrill/Emotion 5', and Ranley Hall joins as a strong substitute!"
Vin Diesel: We need fresh blood to breathe life into the series. ”
"Paul Walker: Hall is a really good actor and 'Buried Alive' was my favorite movie at Telluride. ”
"Exclusive Revelation: Dwayne Johnson and Vin Diesel had a big fight on set!"
……
"Another Shia LaBeouf? Twenty-year-old Ranley Hall is about to challenge the action genre!"
From Emmy to Toronto to Telluride, Rite-Hall rose from strength to strength, soaring all the way into the sights of Hollywood's six major studios. ”
"Telluride is the focus of the conversation, Lance Hall, James Franco, Jesse Eisenberg, who is closer to being nominated for a first Oscar?"
……
There is no doubt that Telluride is still the darling of major media, and the gossip and official news from all sides are frequently seen in the newspapers, attracting the attention of the whole world.
Not only Lan Li, Neil H. Moretz also took Vin Diesel and Paul Walker to meet with different actors, James Franco, Jake Gyllenhaal, Keanu Reeves and others were all on the list, and in just two days, the news about "Fast and Furious / Love 5" was like a flood, and the collective flocked to it, and it seemed that the change of roles had been finalized.
Among them, Lan Li, the youngest and youngest of the seniors, undoubtedly stood on the cusp, causing a lot of controversy in the Yahoo community, and many loyal fans of "Fast and Furious 5" have raised doubts: Can Lan Li take Dwayne Johnson's place? After all, Daun Ke is an actor with a very strong presence.
Even many entertainment gossip media have joined the discussion, but what they are more curious about is what happened between Dawn and the crew? What is Dawn's attitude towards the recasting of the crew? Also, is Lan Li's joining the line of fire a good thing or a bad thing for the crew?
It seems that overnight, the matter of "Fast and Excitement/Love 5" replacing Dawn with Lan Li has been settled, even if all the parties involved in the incident have not yet expressed their opinions, and even the crew has not given official recognition.
However, these gossips and rumors did not have much reference value for Lan Li, and the carnival on the last day of Telluride made him completely lost in it, and ended the main activities of the Telluride Film Festival by watching the movie, and joined the fans at midnight to join the all-night carnival, ending this annual fan gathering with a grand party.
When Lan Li returned to the hotel room, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and since he had to check out before eleven o'clock, Lan Li hurriedly returned to the room, quickly packed his luggage, and came to the hotel lobby, but he didn't see Andy's figure, and waited on the sofa next to him for a while, only then did he see Andy who was late.
The two of them left the hotel, Lan Li put his luggage in the back of the car, ready to leave Telluride and go to Los Angeles, then sat in the passenger seat, ready to catch up on sleep, raised his head and saw a thought between Andy's eyebrows, his hands crossed on his stomach again, this is a typical mode of thinking, "What's wrong?
“…… It's about 'Speed & Excitement 5'. Andy hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth.
"What's wrong with 'Fast & Thrill 5'?" Lan Li spent all day yesterday with movie lovers, didn't read the newspaper, but was very well informed, "Didn't everything happen to be expected? ”
"Herein lies the problem, in just one day, things have moved too quickly and too positively. Andy's index finger tapped up and down, "I think they might just be using you as a whetstone." ”
