"Why do you want to stay in a hotel?" Nathan said reflexively, and after saying it, he realized that he was taking it for granted, and the words "sorry" popped up first, and then he quickly explained in a panic, "I mean, it's still not very convenient to live in a hotel, just like a guest, there is no sense of home, and besides, there are strangers in and out of the hotel, and your privacy is not guaranteed, and the coming and going of the paparazzi is annoying." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"I was meant to be a guest in Los Angeles. Lan Li shrugged his shoulders and said lightly. Nathan blinked quickly, his pupils vibrating violently, and he couldn't tell the real emotion behind the sentence at all, so much so that he didn't know how to reply to it, and he didn't have a clue at all.

Looking at Nathan's sincere and frightened expression, Lan Li couldn't help but laugh dumbly, he remembered Fisher Morgan, who was domineering at the beginning, so he teased, "Don't worry, I won't bite." ”

Nathan was stunned, then scratched his head jerkily, his expression suddenly became embarrassed, he wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to start, and finally just said, "I know." With the jerky words and the honest expression, Lan Li couldn't help but chuckle, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

Nathan looked straight ahead again, merging into the not-so-heavy traffic, "I mean, you're going to be in Los Angeles for the next few minutes, and it's going to be inconvenient to live in a hotel. ”

"The next period of time?" Lan Li's eyebrows raised slightly, not understanding the meaning of Nathan's words - "Love is crazy" can be completed in three days at most, in fact, according to the plan, the rest of the scenes only need one day is enough, but Drake also reserved some time for reshoots.

"Yes, the Justin crew will be filming in Los Angeles for two to three weeks before heading to Rio. However, the venue rental in Rio has not yet been finalized, so it is also possible that filming in Arizona will start first, and we will need to wait for further notice from the crew. But, what is certain is that Los Angeles will be the main front for the next period of time. ”

Nathan regained his composure and explained in detail, but Lan Li felt that he was a little out of speed, the corners of his mouth pulled down, and he said curiously, "First reverse the conversation a little earlier, Justin? Which Justin?"

"Justin-Lin. Nathan said without a pause, hurriedly turned his head to look at Lan Li, caught the hint of doubt, and immediately reacted, "Oh, sorry, you don't know yet, right, I forgot." A simple apology once again made Nathan panic.

Lan Li pursed the corners of her mouth and nodded, "Then, I'm ready now to listen intently." ”

"Yes, yes. Nathan nodded in agreement, "'Fast & Thrill/Emotion 5', that's what I was talking about. Andy said that the contract is already in the legal process, and when the movie -- well, 'Love Crazy' is finished — you can jump right into the filming of 'Fast & Thrill 5'. ”

Lan Li's eyebrows rose slightly, and there was a hint of surprise and surprise in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, "Speed and Excitement/Emotion 5" actually won. Thirteen days have passed since the filming of "Love Crazy" - two of which were spent in the skies across the Atlantic. It's been nearly half a month since this one, and Lan Li takes it for granted that they have found a more suitable candidate, even if it's not Dawn, it may be other actors, after all, every day's consumption is money.

"Is there anything Andy have anything to add about 'Fast & Thrill 5'?" Lan Li couldn't help but be a little curious.

"Supplement?" Nathan thought for a moment, "yes, Andy said that there are still surprises to take on this film, but he will take care of these things." You'll need to focus on the finishing touches of 'Love Crazy' first, and then it's best to get to the gym. ”

Nathan didn't say much, and it can be seen that Andy should have told him that there should be a limit to what Andy told him. However, Lan Li can still imagine that the calm smile on Andy's face is a little proud-

Neither Andy nor Neil had ever really seen Lan Li's skills, and they could be said to have no idea about his ability to act in action scenes, but in this way, he managed to take the role of Hobbs and defeat the unique Dwayne Johnson, as if just a snap of his fingers, a magic miracle was born.

In order to successfully star in an action movie, some actors began to prepare in the gym half a year in advance, but the time left for Lan Li was less than forty-eight hours, if "Love Crazy" could be completed early, then maybe Lan Li could have ninety-six hours.

"I thought, this evening, maybe I can go out for an hour of running. Looking out the window at the tall palm trees and wide streets, a young woman with a ponytail was running, wearing close-fitting sweatpants and a loose sports top, her golden ponytail swaying rhythmically with her steps.

Nathan's car happened to stop at the intersection because of the red light, following behind a silver-gray convertible sports car, only to see the man in the driver's seat of the sports car whistle at the woman, the woman jogged across the zebra crossing, passed by the front of the sports car, she directly raised her middle finger, and then calmly continued to walk.

I've been back and forth to Los Angeles several times, but Lan Li has never really felt the life of the city. Now it seems that Los Angeles and New York are similar, but they are very different, and at the same time, his life as an actor is changing little by little.

Inexplicably, Lan Li remembered Chris Hemsworth, who moved to Los Angeles.

Waiting for Nathan to park the car in the parking space, Lan Li stepped out of the car and looked at the surroundings, almost all of them were two- or three-story low-rise buildings, with tall palm trees planted next to them, large areas of low bushes, faded light green with a rich summer atmosphere easily outlined in the field of vision, and the crimson brick walls and ginger roofs looked plain but had a peaceful aura.

Walking down the stairs in front of him to the entrance of the building, Nathan followed with his luggage, opened the door on the first floor, and when he walked in, he saw a rectangular patio, and the corridor that could accommodate five or six people in parallel wrapped around the patio one by one, revealing a fragment of blue sky, and golden sunlight sprinkled down unhindered.

In the light halo, you can see a series of dark yellow wooden doors, and behind each door is a small home, with about ten or twelve households on one floor.

Nathan walked to the end of the hallway on the right, opened the door to the room, and said in a loud voice, "Lan Li, here." The bright sound echoed through the patio, revealing an early autumn chill, but it didn't elicit any reaction from the neighbors, and it was clear that the neighborhood was much better off than the neighborhood of Drake's friends. However, Lan Li was not familiar with Los Angeles, and he couldn't tell which area it was.

When he walked into the room, Lan Li was a little surprised. From the outside, he thought it was a simple bachelor apartment, like those dense beehive dwellings in Hong Kong, but in fact, it was actually a two-bedroom daily apartment, and on the left hand side of the door was a simple guest room with access to the outside courtyard, and the bright light made the whole room look magnificent.

Walking down the hallway, the hall is presented in light gray and beige, with a right-angle sofa against the wall, two large glass windows in front of it, and the kitchen is only separated by a wall from the guest room on the left, with a reddish-brown bar between the kitchen and the living room, and then the spacious master bedroom on the left.

Spacious and welcoming, modern and generous, simple and clean.

Lan Li found it interesting, Andy had helped him find apartments in New York and Los Angeles, but the New York apartments in Greenwich Village had a strong design style and personal character, and the exposed pipes were impressive at a glance, and the ubiquitous art atmosphere hid many highlights.

The Los Angeles apartment, on the other hand, is located in the middle-class neighborhood of West Hollywood, with little style to speak of, just a simple house that can be moved in and out at any time, and the atmosphere of life is more obvious than art.

In a way, this is also the difference between the styles of the two cities, at least the artistic style.

"It was originally a shared apartment for two actors, you know, the most common kind of actor in Hollywood, who had a dream, insisted on working as a waitress in a coffee house on the set, and went out of his way to every audition and find his chance. However, one of them got a job in Las Vegas and moved away, and the other couldn't pay the rent, so ......"

Nathan put all his luggage away and walked out as he spoke, "What do you think?"

Lan Li took a rough look at the room, "I'm also a poor actor now, are you sure you don't need to rent another room?"

"Huh. Nathan took it for granted that Lan Li was joking, not to mention that Fisher and Andy, the two top agents, were optimistic about Lan Li's future, just talking about the identity of the new Emmy Award-winning Christie, Lan Li was no longer a "poor" actor.

Lan Li knew Nathan didn't believe it.

Many viewers have always thought so, looking at the glamorous lives of those actors, imagining their luxurious and enjoyable lives, extremely envious, but in fact, maintaining such a bright life requires a lot of expenditure, aside from the luxury goods such as yachts, sports cars, and private jets, just the cost of clothing, food, and accommodation, in order to match the level of the spotlight, it can be called a lot of money.

In the past, I went to Toronto and Telluride, and then traveled back and forth to London to shoot a film, and these travel and installation expenses were all paid for out of pocket. Lan Li now has less than $10,000 left in his bank account - the salary for "burying alive" has not yet arrived, and if there is no sponsorship during the promotion period of "buried alive", Lan Li will become a poor egg again.

He is indeed a poor actor at the grassroots level.
