630 Reluctant to give up
Unusual. Lan Li smelled something unusual.
Although this is the first meeting between Lan Li and Jay, he knows that "The Tonight Show" is an ace late-night talk show, and the core content of the conversation is controlled by Jay Leno, or is it mainly based on the artist's life anecdotes and humorous jokes, and the promotion of movies or albums is really too rigid and too rigid, and the host tries to avoid large-scale discussions as much as possible.
It can be understood that hard advertising and product placement are annoying, and soft advertising is the best means of publicity.
But today, Jie's entire conversation revolves around the movie, which is really unusual, but why? Lan Li couldn't think of it for a while, there was still too little experience in this area, and the two lives couldn't help.
His thoughts turned in his mind, but Lan Li's answer was not slow at all, and he said with a smile, "Secret? There is no secret, just a montage shot." Felicity and I just looked at the blank notebook and performed. Now it seems that the two of us are doing a good job. ”
After the words were spoken, Lan Li noticed a smug glint flashing in Jie's eyes, and an ominous premonition came to his heart, but he didn't turn back when he opened the bow, and it was too late to regret it now. What went wrong?
"Are you sure?" Jay raised his final note, his tone full of smugness, and his gaze fell meaningfully on Lan Li.
At this moment, the scene suddenly remembered a commotion, screams, cheers, whistles, endlessly, the jubilant scene looked like the Red Sea was boiling, and even seven or eight people stood up, ghosts and wolves howling, so lively. The whole studio was in chaos, and the most amazing thing was that even the cameramen, gaffers, and directors poked their heads out.
Lan Li's eyebrows frowned slightly, and his eyes fell on the audience, abnormal, really abnormal, and then he caught the neat line of sight in the laughter, conditioned reflex, and turned his head to look at the big screen behind, on the screen was a still picture, facing a notebook, there are two rows of words up and down the notebook, and the handwriting in the second row is really familiar - that is Lan Li's own handwriting.
"God. Lan Li raised his right hand, opened his broad palm, rubbed his temples, his palm covered the embarrassment under his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised under the shadows, with joy and shyness, he put down his right hand and looked at the big screen again, his cheeks were slightly hot, but his smile became more and more brilliant, helpless, absurd, green, and shook his head gently, lost, really lost.
Jie excitedly clenched the pencil in his hand, pounded the table hard, and then raised it high, raised his arms and cheered, "Caught you!" Today's program recording, Jie has always been at a disadvantage, it is so incredible, but it is true, now, Jie has finally won back a city and gained the upper hand, even if he is as old as him, he can't help but get excited.
"This notebook is from director Drake Doremus. Jay took the initiative to introduce, "According to him, this is a conversation between Lan Li and Felicity during the filming. The scene began to shout again, and Jay had to raise his voice, "The point is, this is a plot that is not in the script, and it is completely the impromptu play of the two actors!"
The notebook reads:
"—I think your smile is lovely.
- I thought you were going to kiss me directly. Or are you waiting for me to take the initiative?"
The scene was noisy, bustling, chirping, whistling and coaxing could not be stopped. Jay even rubbed the back of his hand exaggeratedly, signaling that the goosebumps had all fallen off.
Seeing all this, Lan Li smiled dumbly. Stringed together, all the clues strung together, and now he finally understood where the flaws were. Obviously, this is a trap.
Jay already knew the contents of the notebook, and also knew the secret of the scene between Lan Li and Felicity, and he deliberately used it to test Lan Li. If Lan Li admits it, then he can push the boat down the river and talk about the interesting things after the filming of this scene, which is the audience's favorite tidbit, and if Lan Li denies it, then he can reveal the answer, and then ...... Then there was the scandal between him and Felicity.
Whatever the answer, Jay is already invincible, and of course, Jay is looking forward to the latter. Because she was cautious enough, Lan Li avoided the first trap about the album, but because she was too cautious, Lan Li took the initiative to step into the trap about scandals. I have to say that Jay Renaud is really spicy.
However, Lan Li had no way to get angry, but wanted to give Jie's applause. This kind of confrontation is really a battle of wits and courage, and recording the show was originally a job, but Lan Li felt the fun in it, as if he was filming this scene in the first place.
"So, when you first filmed this scene, did you fall in love with Felicity?" Sure enough, as Lan Li expected, Jay asked a question that everyone was curious about.
A smile hung on the corner of her mouth, and Lan Li paused slightly. He has no way to deny it, and more importantly, he doesn't have to deny it, "before the audience realizes it." ”
"Ahhh
"In that moment, I did fall in love with Anna. Generous, frank and swaying, Lan Li's posture made the scene shout, many people jumped up directly, and the whole studio erupted like a volcano. It's just that Lan Li's expression is very special, "Anna", not "Felicity", at that moment, the boundary between reality and illusion is indeed completely blurred.
However, this is the same thing for the audience, and they can't believe that they are excited and excited.
When everyone calmed down a little, Lan Li noticed Jie's gaze, full of encouragement, full of curiosity, Lan Li knew that this was a hint for him to continue to tell the full story, "When we were filming this scene, our crew rented a friend's house, where the soundproofing facilities were terrible, and at the slightest sound, the next-door neighbor would come out of the corridor and scold, which brought great difficulties to the shooting, and we finally had to modify the original shooting plan." ”
Now recalling the original filming process again, Lan Li can face it calmly, those heart-warming moments, those budding moments, forever remain under Drake's lens.
"The scene in which the notebook appears is about Jacob falling in love, and Drake wants to draw on the delicate emotions of 'before sunrise' and 'before sunset'. Now it seems that we succeeded. Lan Li didn't tell the story too long, and presented the cause and effect in a simple few words.
"So, these conversations are entirely up to you. Jay continued to complete the puzzle pieces for the filming footage, and after receiving Lan Li's affirmative answer, he asked, "Then why didn't you edit this scene into the movie?" Wait, you can't see these words in the movie, right?"
"Yes. Lan Li nodded in affirmation, "Drake has considered such an idea. But we still think that hiding those details and leaving an overall atmosphere is the best fit. Who knows, Drake turned around and betrayed us en masse. We'll have to settle this account when we go back. ”
The understatement revealed the ferocity of gnashing teeth, which once again made the laughter of the scene erupt.
Jay also looked at the camera and pointed to the director, "We have to make this clip a trailer." Those viewers who missed this episode of the show are bound to regret it. This way of breaking the four-dimensional dialogue successfully made Lan Li laugh too, and then saw Jie accept his chin with satisfaction, but he didn't intend to stop there, but continued to ask, "Then when the media has been hyping up the scandal between you and Jennifer Lawrence, the atmosphere of your crew should be very embarrassing." ”
"Haha. Lan Li immediately heard the deep meaning of the words, and laughed heartily, "I thought there was only a love triangle between the paparazzi and gossip magazines, but I didn't expect you to be so excited." He did not affirm or deny it in a hurry, but replied calmly that this back and forth was much more exciting than the interview.
"I'm not curious, but my audience is curious. Jay shrugged his shoulders and pushed the blame down, but the audience collectively responded, as if to confirm Jay's claim.
Lan Li is aggressive," the paparazzi said. Demand determines supply. But then the conversation changed and he laughed, "If it's for the box office, I'd better keep my mouth shut." The subtext is that the scandal is nothing, but in order to hype, it is best for him to let these news continue to ferment.
In response, it was a cunning side knock, and the atmosphere relaxed again.
Jay took his chin in satisfaction, and he was about to take the opportunity to ask about Lan Li and Jennifer's friendship again, as well as interesting facts about the Toronto Film Festival, when the director's voice came from the headphones: The recording time has entered the countdown. This also means that Lan Li's interview must be over.
Jie was a little stunned, he didn't realize the passage of time at all, and he had already finished recording?
"In the blink of an eye, our show is nearing its end. Jie flipped through the manuscript in front of him and let out a long breath, not hiding his regret, "To be honest, there are still many issues that have not been mentioned here. This seems to be off track for what I was expecting. I can foresee that the next interview is sure to be very interesting, and there will definitely be a next one. ”
"Excuse me, do I have to be there next time?" Lan Li's rhetorical question made Jie stunned, "Or can I watch the show at home?" It means that he has no interest in continuing to record the show.
Once again, the scene became a sea of laughter, and many audience members shouted urgently, "Must attend!", "Welcome back!"
Jie looked at Lan Li with a smile, then pointed at Lan Li and said solemnly, "You must attend." This is a prerequisite. After saying that, Jay shrugged, "I think I'll go to see this movie after all, just because of this scene." After speaking, I didn't see any instructions from Jie, and the director cleverly released the picture of the notebook on the big screen again, and everyone collectively burst into laughter, even Lan Li was no exception.
Jay didn't smile, with a serious expression, "Yes, I'll definitely go to the cinema!" After finishing speaking, he smiled, "Audience friends, one last round of applause, Lan Li-Hall!"
