Lan Li stood silently in place, looking at Rooney surrounded by the lights, she stood in the center of the circle with a smile, detached but polite and gently bowed, most of the time it was someone else who spoke, and she responded kindly and simply, but even so, it still couldn't stop the people who came to congratulate and congratulate one after another.

There are dazzling lights and noisy sounds all around, and the rolling heat wave fills the entire space from the soles of the feet to the ceiling, and even the skin surface can clearly feel the hot heat, but between the flashy light and shadow, there is a trace of imperceptible dazness and loneliness, a little breathless, the more lively the more lonely, the more crowded the more alienated, inexplicably, the eyes lose focus, I don't know where to fall.

Then, Rooney saw Lan Li.

The focus and focus quickly gathered, and a touch of light joy flashed inadvertently under the eyes, the cold facial lines softened slightly, and even the tone of the entertainment was dyed with a light layer of warm color.

But then, Rooney realized that this was a public occasion, and they had better keep a low profile, otherwise everyone present would be human spirits and would be exposed if they were not careful. So, Rooney didn't deliberately dodge, blinked lightly to convey the hint, and then gestured generously to Lan Li's jaw, which seemed to be normal.

It is precisely because of Rooney's actions that others noticed the existence of Lan Li, at this time, the entire backstage was full of people, and it was indeed easy to ignore the people around them without deliberately paying attention, and now seeing Lan Li, no one thought too much, just smiled and signaled, a few people left Rooney and walked towards Lan Li, while more people were still talking to Rooney.

Rooney was about to withdraw her gaze and pick herself up to continue dealing with the situation in front of her, but she didn't expect that Lan Li took the initiative to take a step towards where they were, which made her show a trace of confusion.

Before Rooney could ask, Lan Li's footsteps had already come to the side, and he took the initiative to say with a smile, "Gentlemen, ladies, may I borrow this lady's time?" Tonight, I haven't had time to express my congratulations and thanks, and besides, our director is also waiting for us. ”

The gentleman's decent words can't find anything wrong, especially the last sentence, which doesn't need much explanation to remind people of the regretful defeat of "gravity" at the last moment. Everyone nodded in agreement, and then congratulated Rooney again and expressed regret to Lan Li, and Lan Li and Rooney turned around and left.

Until leaving, Rooney still stared at Lan Li in amazement, "...... It's as simple as that?"

Just now, she spent countless thoughts and ideas, but she was never able to get out of the social scene, but she didn't expect that Lan Li would succeed with an understatement?

Lan Li shrugged slightly, but smiled silently.

Rooney paused, gradually came back to her senses, and the smile on the corner of her mouth rose slightly, "Honestly, you should be very easy to deal with such an occasion, right? The reason why you always avoid it is not because of fear and rustiness, but simply because of laziness, right?"

Although she also came from a prominent background, Rooney has a cold personality since she was a child, and she is always not suitable for social situations, and it has become a habit to be maverick, while Lan Li is a little different, she seems to be a gentleman and elegant, and can be like a fish in water on any occasion, but she has her own arrogance in her bones.

Rooney is accustomed to Lan Li's own side, especially the approachability of the film festival, which seems to be far from the clothes and sideburns of high society, but gradually discovers the hidden side of Lan Li, those tricky social situations fall into the hands of Lan Li, but they can always be resolved in four or two.

Lan Li did not deny it, "So, don't you Americans always say that you are true temperament?"

The meaning of this sentence is......

Rooney immediately reacted: from a cultural level, the British always dislike Americans for being rude and vulgar, lacking cultural and historical heritage, while they are "aristocrats" with a long history - not class, but heritage, while Americans always complain that the British are holding a shelf, boasting of their knowledge and refusing to keep up with the times, while they are the trendsetters of the new era, advancing with the times and rejoicing with the people.

To put it simply, Americans are proud of their "rudeness and vulgarity", which they explain by "true temperament", but they resist the British set.

Lan Li used such an expression at this time, in fact, to say: as Britons, there is naturally no pressure to deal with these hypocritical and polite social situations, because they live in such an environment. With a clever self-deprecation, the whole topic is brought out.

Rooney's smile immediately bloomed unreservedly.

The guests everywhere noticed Rooney's smile and cast strange glances: Is this still the Rooney they are familiar with?

Rooney pursed the corners of her lips and controlled her demeanor, but the smile on the corners of her mouth and eyes still overflowed, and her eyes looked at Lan Li shiningly, "So, what do you British always say about yourself?"

"Empire. Lan Li summed it up in the simplest of terms, which made the smile in Rooney's eyes roll more and more, and then Lan Li added, "The next time you see Andre and Matthew, you can ask them this question, there may be a surprise." ”

"What about Eaton?" Rooney asked curiously.

Lan Li pondered for a moment, "His answer may be boring. ”

"Does Eaton know you're complaining about him behind his back?" Rooney's voice was completely light.

Lan Li pursed the corners of his mouth, "That's how he complained about himself." ”

Backstage at the awards ceremony, Lan Li and Rooney walked side by side without arousing any suspicion at all.

Because Rooney specially thanked a "him" in her acceptance speech, and also thanked Lan Li by name, almost everyone will not directly equate "he" and "Lan Li", but take it for granted that these should be two people. Therefore, it is really normal for the two of them to appear together as partners of "gravity" at this time, not to mention that their move to find Alfonso Cuarón hand in hand looks even less boring.

Alfonso's mood was still a little low.

Compared with the best picture, he regrets that the hard work of the crew has not been able to get more recognition, whether it is the best director and best supporting actress, or other technical awards, tonight's "gravity" eight statuette trophies can be regarded as individual awards, not as a whole like the best picture.

If "Gravity" failed to compete for Best Picture from the beginning, then forget it, the box office of the movie is already an important affirmation of the hard work of the crew from the audience, but after sweeping the eight statuettes tonight, the crew will inevitably raise their expectations, and finally pass by, regret and choke are inevitable.

"Rest assured, I'll find my motivation again. Despite the sadness of the loss, Alfonso smiled and thanked Lan Li and Rooney.

Alfonso is a very simple filmmaker, and the reason why he filmed "Gravity" is obviously not because of awards, but because of his love of study. It's like now, the reason why he regrets it is not for himself, but for the crew.

Lan Li smiled and said, "Explore a new shooting technique?"

"Hah, that's probably going to be difficult, and then it's going to have to take another five years? Even if I wanted to, my wife would protest. Because of Lan Li's joke, Alfonso also chuckled, "I have some scattered thoughts now, but I don't have a relatively clear concept and framework for the time being." But, I heard, you're working on a film production company?"

What a twist on the subject......

Lan Li cast a glance at Rooney, as if to say: Look, just get back to the topic of the movie, and Alfonso can cheer up.

But the words did not pause, Lan Li said, "I'm not sure what the rumors are about, I didn't prepare a film company, but I did participate in the management of a film company, which can be regarded as a shareholding." We are a small company that has just started, and we have produced 'Burst Drummer' so far, and the distribution channel is still 'borrowed' from Sony Classics for the time being, are you sure?"

"That's what I should ask. Alfonso's face was full of sincerity, "You know, when I was preparing for 'Gravity', how long did I toss back and forth, most of the production companies were reluctant to take over, even Warner Bros., they were constantly bargaining, after the leader was changed, the team that connected with us was completely replaced, and then there were many unpleasant things in the release stage and the public relations stage." ”

"I'm serious, I think it's still very difficult to invest in my next work. The subject matter of my work is not destined to be so easily accepted by the market. So, I should ask you, are you willing to invest?" Alfonso is an honest man, he doesn't have any tricks, everything is down-to-earth.

Lan Li knew that Alfonso was telling the truth. Even if Alfonso won the Oscar for Best Director with "gravity", his next work still couldn't find an investor or a distributor.

Alfonso still prefers his films to be shown on the big screen, rather than online on-demand on computer or television. In this respect, both he and Christopher Nolan are conservative academics.

Lan Li raised his eyebrows, "Of course, I'm sure. Once you've decided on your ideas and ideas, how about we sit down and talk?"

"Talking to you?" Alfonso suddenly became excited.

Lan Li was surprised for a moment, then he understood, and gave an affirmative reply, "Yes, talk to me." ”

It is important to negotiate cooperation and investment with the production company, most of the projects are invested in the pre-production manager, a small number of projects are invested in the producer, and some projects are interviewed with the management of the production department. But what is certain is that the more non-professional people are, the more important they are to market value and profit returns, and the more difficult it is to negotiate.

If you can have an interview with Lan Li, things will naturally be different.
