377 Joke Proposal

"I'd like to come over and talk to you about the next selection plan. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Andy didn't go around in circles and picked out the topic, which was the most important thing in today's interview.

As an agent, Andy has many different permutations and combinations in his mind, planning Lan Li's next work, he clearly knows that whether it is a commercial film or an art film, there is no right choice, and there is no wrong choice, the focus is still on the script and cast, ensuring the quality of the work, which is the core essence.

Then wait for the release of "Fast and Thrill/Emotion 5" to see the market response before making further decisions.

However, Lan Li has a clear understanding of his path as an actor, and Andy realized this when he signed the contract. Therefore, before making the next plan, Andy needs to have a simple communication with Lanli to exchange opinions with each other. This is the basis for long-term cooperation.

Andy's expectations for Lan Li are not just stars.

"Recently, there have been a lot of phone calls to ask about your projects. Andy smiled with a hint of banter in his eyes, and even caught a hint of schadenfreude.

There is nothing unusual about this sentence in itself. With Sundance's award and Oscar nomination, the name "Blue Rite-Hall" began to spread, and with the help of innovative artist agencies, it was only natural that the number of projects interested in Blue Rite was steadily increasing.

But Andy's tone was really interesting, Lan Li's action of drinking water paused for a moment, which could make Andy, who had always been calm, show such a look, he couldn't help but be curious, raised his head, and cast a puzzled look.

It's rare for Andy to sell a pass and not immediately say the answer, which is really rare.

Lan Li became more and more curious, but he also held his breath, did not break the silence, opened his mouth to ask, and still drank slowly and methodically. He slept darkly, and now his throat was very dry, and he needed to rehydrate.

Looking at Lan Li in front of him, Andy didn't continue to play tricks after all, and revealed the answer, "'Dawn'." ”

Lan Li turned his head, and for a while he didn't remember which movie was called "Breaking Dawn". The point is that it can make Andy exude a prank look, which should probably be a spoof work, or a work that deviates from the style, Lan Li tried to think about the corners, but he couldn't find anything in his mind that matched the description.

Andy added, "Vampires." ”

Lan Li paused for half a second, and then choked, but before he had time to drain the water in his throat into his stomach, he accidentally choked, and almost squirted all the water out of his mouth.

The aristocratic etiquette education in this life launched a conditioned reflex, forcibly controlled the muscles, swallowed the water directly, and coughed dullly, "cough", but the breath in the chest cavity was still a little disordered, and the taste was really lost/soul.

Andy laughed contentedly, it was really rare to see Lan Li look so embarrassed, the release of this bomb was really worth the ticket price. So, Andy slowly leaned back in the chair, looking like he was sitting firmly on the Diaoyu Tai, with his hands on his belly, and a shallow smile on his face.

Lan Li finally recovered, and looked at Andy in surprise, "My guess is correct?"

Andy didn't say anything, just nodded, gave an affirmation, and then saw Lan Li's face with a strange expression, like a smile but not a smile, as if angry but not angry, that playful and ridiculous look was really interesting.

"Twilight 4: Breaking Dawn", that's what Andy is talking about.

This set of films, adapted from the best-selling novel, has now reached its fourth part, which is the finale. The series has made a lot of history, for example, the harder the critics scolded, the better the box office performance, and with the dilemma of being scolded and bloody, the global box office of the series has repeatedly reached new highs.

For example, it started a frenzy of adapting novels for teenagers, and after that, "The Hunger Games", "Divergents", "Moving Mazes" and so on were all derived from it.

In another example, Robert Pattinson became a phenomenal idol actor, triggering a tsunami effect among avid fans. Even Justin Bieber pales in comparison.

It's an interesting phenomenon. For major film companies, on the one hand, they dislike the young age, fandom and vulgarization of this series of movies, and on the other hand, driven by the supremacy of interests, they hope to replicate the box office miracle of the series of movies, and simply and rudely create a few teenage vase idols and make a lot of money.

But what is certain is that the phenomenal performance of "Twilight" has also aroused the phenomenal revulsion of film critics and academics, and some even assert that in the next ten years, the film's three leading actors will not be able to enter the attention of the awards season - not even the entertainment-oriented Golden Globes.

This has been proven by the facts.

Before starring in "Twilight", Kristen Stewart was actually a high-profile independent film star, "Wilderness Survival", "Trembling Space", "No More Silence" and other works have shown good performance potential, and are favored by many independent filmmakers;

Later, with a strong public relations team, Dongshan began to return to the field of independent films, and the abundance of resources and excellence are simply staggering. But awards season still keeps it out.

As for Robert Pattinson and Taylor-Lautner, it is even more difficult to sustain it.

It is no exaggeration to say that even the supporting actors who have starred in the series of movies have been labeled as vases and idols, and they are more or less tied in the selection of works in the future.

In fact, this is the law of inertia in Hollywood, or the law of society. After Leonardo DiCaprio performed "Titanic" that year, he faced the same dilemma and squandered it for five years before he regained his track.

Although the industry scoffs at the "Twilight" series, for actors, the opportunity to perform and get paid is a real reward, and it can also increase popularity and open up the deadlock in acting careers, so why not? Therefore, there are countless actors who are eager to appear in the series.

It's just that why did "Twilight" take a fancy to Blue Rite?

Lan Li's expression was a little weird, "Did I do something wrong?"

"Poof. Andy finally couldn't hold back, and laughed directly, he nodded, and shook his head, which made Lan Li also chuckle helplessly, the more he thought about it, the more funny it became, and his smile completely bloomed.

"They're just asking about your intentions. Andy explains, "You're the age of the movie, your look is the way they think about vampires, and importantly, you're well-known right now without being too expensive." Lionsgate's budget is limited. ”

Speaking of this, Andy himself was a little soft-mouthed, couldn't help laughing, and laughed again, "You should know that this movie will be divided into two parts at the finale, and then there will be a lot of vampires, as if there is a final battle." ”

"No, I don't know. Lan Li's blunt response made Andy laugh even brighter.

Andy didn't continue to joke, let alone Lan Li, and even when he received the email, he was stunned, completely unable to understand Lionsgate's thoughts. Because Lan Li really doesn't seem to have anything to do with the "Twilight" series.

The only reliable explanation is that in order to inject water into the finale, they want to absorb some new blood worthy of attention, influential but not too big, recognizable but not too expensive, and most importantly, temperament can match their vampire setting. Thinking about it this way, Lan Li was not so shocked when he entered their waitlist.

Aside from the work itself, this is actually an affirmation of Lan Li, with an increase in popularity, popularity, and attention, which is really too rare for Lan Li, whose two films are currently independent works.

"Rest assured, I've turned them down. Andy's mood calmed down and he regained his mindset of getting down to business.

Unexpectedly, Lan Li shrugged his shoulders, "Who knows? Maybe I really agreed, and playing a vampire is also a good experience." ”

Andy's expression couldn't help but stiffen, because Lan Li's expression was too serious, a serious appearance, and his eyes also showed a light of thought, so that people couldn't tell whether he was joking or not.

"It's like a high school student, performing on stage, immersing yourself in your own world, pretending to be handsome, and everyone looks up at you in amazement. No skills, no methods, no even thinking, total immersion in your own world, that's enough. ”

Lan Li pursed the corners of his mouth after speaking, nodded slightly, and seemed to agree with his idea, "You know, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt have also played vampires. It should be a good experience. ”

When he heard "Brad Pitt", Andy finally understood: Lan Li was joking.

Andy couldn't help but let out a sigh secretly, he would never admit that he was almost deceived by Lan Li just now. Still smiling, he said with a look of approval, "Are you sure? I can still call them if I need to, I don't think it's a problem." ”

"Yes, you should try it, and then quote a good price and make a good profit. Lan Li didn't panic either, and continued to have a serious expression on his face.

In the end, Andy was defeated, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Next is a serious ......"

Lan Li didn't speak, but spread his hands innocently, and that sincere expression seemed to say, "I'm serious, I've always been serious." ”

An expression choked Andy, which reminded him of the time when Lan Li dealt with reporters before, but now he had a good experience of what those reporters felt - this kind of taste was not very comfortable.

"Ahem. Andy picked up his glass and took a sip of his Coke, "Let's get down to business." Andy pretended not to see Lan Li's teasing eyes, "You also know that the previous conversation was not serious?" and continued, "I think there is a role that is very suitable for you. ”
