1658 Conspiracy
It's another year of awards season!
Objectively speaking, the most interesting and peculiar award department this year is the competition for Best Actor.
In terms of absolute strength, Lan Li, who has established his dominance with the two works of "Gravity" and "Drunken Country Folk", cannot find any opponents at all, even Matthew McConaughey of "Dallas Buyers Club", Tom Hanks of "Captain Phillips", Christian Bale of "American Hustle" and other actors are not enough to shake Lan Li's leading position, and it can even be said that it is a competition without suspense.
Judging from the additional information such as the popularity of the industry, market appeal and the weight of the works, and even the strength configuration of the college's public relations, Lan Li has an incomparable huge advantage, and the competitiveness of other actors is overshadowed, and it seems that Lan Li can already witness the award ceremony of Lan Li's second crown of Oscar winner.
But if awards season were so simple and straightforward, it wouldn't be awards season, and college PR wouldn't be so tough.
Because of EGOT, because of the sky, and because the strength of "gravity" and "drunken folk songs" are extremely close, all of this makes Lan Li's chances to win this year's award must be accompanied by the last seat, not to mention the Oscar statuette, it is estimated that even the nominations are trembling, before the Oscar nomination list, no one can be sure whether Lan Li will become a spoiler in this year's sprint stage, or simply fall behind in the nomination stage?
The double nomination for acting at the Golden Globe Awards is a signal, a signal from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, but the signal is really limited.
Although it is known as the "Oscar weather vane", the Golden Globe Awards have always adhered to the principle of catching everything, and the nomination method of "it is better to be injured by mistake than to let go" is often prone to some inexplicable works, and the strategy of casting a wide net is under the cover of the core idea of entertainment first, and it is really difficult to reveal more information.
Having said that, in the confrontation between Lan Li and Thomas Toole, Hollywood still made its firm stance - especially after the negative news related to "Interstellar" broke out, almost all of the actors in the industry were on Lan Li's side, and they have repeatedly expressed their support for Lan Li, both publicly and privately, which can still be seen as a positive signal.
However, despite the support of his Hollywood colleagues, Lan Li has never been a restrained personality — more precisely, Andy is not a reluctant personality.
In fact, for Lan Li, the rumors of delaying the filming work because of personal matters are harmless at all, whether he really delayed the progress of the crew, everyone has a scale in their hearts, those gossips will not have any impact at all, let alone harm, but Thomas's use of the Paul incident is really speechless - a businessman is indeed a businessman, except for interests, everything else can be used and discussed.
Then continue to swallow his anger, this is not Lan Li's style, he needs to make his position and boundaries clear, to avoid similar things in the future, or even inch in.
Lan Li didn't know how Andy arranged and executed it, but it wasn't long before news in the industry began to surge.
The first was a private meeting between Andy and Kevin Tsujihara in Seattle, and the conversation seemed very lighthearted and pleasant, but the specifics are unknown, but soon after, the "Interstellar" crew sent bouquets and gifts to the hospital in an official position to express their greetings to Paul.
Andy then met Ron Meyer twice in New York, once at the opening of an art gallery and once at a Broadway show. The two times seem to be just coincidences, and Andy and Meyer did not deliberately avoid suspicion, and their words were just ordinary greetings in social situations.
But about a week later, TMZ officially broke the news that the "unnamed Jurassic Park reboot project" will be confirmed to star Lan Li, and now the two sides have entered the final stage of the salary talk, and it is rumored that Universal Pictures will once again break the salary conditions of Lan Li's "Interstellar" filming.
There are only two pieces of news presented to the public, but the dark tide behind it has made the whole of Hollywood look sideways, this wrestling between Hollywood and Wall Street - that is, the confrontation between Lan Li and Thomas, it seems that Lan Li is quietly gaining the upper hand, but can Thomas be caught just like this?
The ensuing developments that followed were really exciting.
The reason why the awards season with the Oscars as the core and the derived academy public relations culture can gather the entire Hollywood and even the world's film forces to compete is very simple: interests! This is a super combination of interests, and all aspects will affect the framework structure of the entire film industry, from art films to commercial films, from large film companies to independent film companies, everyone wants to be able to get a piece of the cake.
Of course, this is a contest between the film company and the top people, for those ordinary actors, they are just a pawn in it, fighting for personal honor, those so-called interests have little to do with them, and only a few top actors have the ability to change the landscape. Clearly, Lan Li is now a brand new member at the top of the pyramid.
The ups and downs of the awards season, for Lan Li, is just another aristocratic world, only less, no more, no need to be too nervous, everything is just the coming and going of interests, he still focuses more on the filming of "Interstellar".
The filming of the movie went very smoothly, the gossip from the outside world did not have much impact, Christopher Nolan was originally a director who devoted himself to filmmaking, plus Lan Li, Jessica and Annie, etc., who worked wholeheartedly, Emma Thomas couldn't help complaining, "This is a workaholic gathering place", which also minimizes the influence of the outside world.
At the same time, Paul's recovery is also very smooth, as the doctor said, as soon as Paul wakes up, all the crisis alarm can be lifted. Now Paul is still in the hospital, waiting for the wound to heal, for his body to recover, for his vitality to return, and to recover from such a serious car accident.
When Lan Li arrived at the hospital ward, there was a cheerful and cheerful laughter in the room, which slowed his pace slightly, and finally stopped at the door of the ward, following the source of the sound:
The whole ward was scattered with a very lively crowd, a small part of which was around the bed, and all eyes fell on Paul, who was lying on the bed at this time, and Paul was dancing with his hands, and his blue eyes once again bloomed with a familiar brilliance, bursting with vitality, telling small stories with gestures.
“…… He just jumped down like that, and we didn't have time to get our shouts out, and we all looked at him with their mouths wide open, frightened and funny, and then he ...... There was an indescribable pain in the man's area, and we felt terrible when we stood by and watched, and at that time, our field assistant, a young girl who had just graduated from college, deliberately made a 'bang' explosion, hahahaha......"
A strong sense of the picture was revealed between the lines, and everyone in the ward burst into laughter, including Paul himself.
The golden sunlight in the room sprinkled down, filling the corners of the entire space, and the haze and solemnity of the cold winter quietly dissolved in the lazy warmth, and then the world became brighter.
"Hey, Lan Li!"
The first person to find Lan Li was still Mei Duo, Xiao Nizi was standing next to the window, turned her head and saw Lan Li, happily trotted towards Lan Li, and jumped briskly in front of Lan Li, "Why did you come over?" I thought you couldn't come over today, didn't you say that you need to work overtime for shooting?"
That's why I chose to come in the morning, say hello to Paul, and leave. Lan Li looked at Mei Duo jumping up and down in front of him, and there was a doting look in his eyes.
After Paul's accident during this time, Lan Li and Mei Duo's relationship mode seems to have changed subtly, not like friends, but more like ...... Elders and juniors, this feeling is really amazing, but strictly speaking, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
Today, the "Interstellar" crew needs to shoot a "big" scene, mainly because the props and scenes are more troublesome, and the preparation and waiting time needs to occupy the main part, which also means that the actors may need to work longer hours and continue to stand by in the crew, and Lan Li may not be able to come over to visit the patient at night - now the time to visit Paul must follow the normal regulations of the hospital, so Lan Li simply chose to come over in the morning before going to the studio.
With Medo's movements and shouts, all the eyes of the entire ward were projected.
Lan Li generously met everyone's eyes, and finally his eyes fell on Paul, and said in a relaxed and mocking tone, "The hero is there, not here, don't find the wrong direction in the spotlight." ”
The joking words made everyone chuckle.
Lan Li, accompanied by Meadow, walked in the direction of Paul's hospital bed, and said with a serious face, "God, I thought you must have been lying bored on top of the hospital bed this morning and looking at the ceiling, so I came here, but now it seems that I am obviously thinking too much, and there are so many visitors today, I would not have come to join in the fun." ”
Paul understands Lan Li, but he is not good at complaining and fighting back, he just said with a smile, "They are them, you are you, this is still different after all." What, you want to be lazy?"
"Lan Li, do you hear me? You're different. Michelle Rodriguez, who was standing next to her, said heartily, and then turned to look at the other friends standing next to her, "Phew, I'm almost starting to get jealous." ”
