In fact, whether it is Hollywood or the London aristocracy, Vanity Fair has no bottom line than imagined, but that kind of shamelessness and greed are all hidden under the glamorous skin, and can always easily deceive others, and all eyes are on the dazzling halo so that they ignore the darkness and decay under the light.

The bottom line of the London aristocracy is the reputation and dignity of the "surname", and the bottom line of Hollywood is absolute interests, and in the face of such a bottom line, everything else can stand aside.

It's that simple.

Similarly, Lan Li also has his bottom line and persistence. He will not be naïve and romanticly believe that he can change the rules of the whole world by his own strength, but he will not be pessimistic and depressed that he has no choice but to disarm and surrender in the face of social and class constraints.

He has his pride, and he will stick to his bottom line and persistence, even if the end is broken. He looked forward to the day when his persistence would be able to change the world in a small way, at least his surroundings, and if not, it would be okay because he could have a clear conscience.

This was the case at Natalie Portman's request at the Toronto Film Festival, as was the case with Melissa Benoist and Vin Diesel, and now with Thomas Toul, Lan Li's bottom line and persistence have never changed – some things are not impossible to do but unwilling to do.

"I refuse. ”

"I won't. ”

This is Lan Li's answer, there is no detour or cover-up, so it bluntly cuts off all possibilities. He could have chosen a more tactful and gentle way, but he didn't feel necessary.

Lan Li's somewhat rude refusal did not leave the slightest face, which made Thomas slightly stunned, and then became angry:

No one dared to speak to him like this, not even Longmeyer and Steven Spielberg, so which onion is the actor in front of him?

"Are you mentally abnormal?" Thomas struggled to control his urge to swear, expressing his anger at the moment in relatively elegant words, the tense voice showed the emotion that was on the verge of exploding at this moment, because he was too angry, after reacting, Thomas laughed angrily, looking at Lan Li as if he was looking at an idiot, "Do you know what you're talking about?

Lan Li remained motionless, and the smile on the corner of his mouth rose lightly—it was too dazzling in Thomas's eyes, and his anger began to gurgle.

"I'm just curious why, when everyone is angry to the extreme, always likes to emphasize this sentence, trying to justify the absurdity of the whole thing. But the problem is, if I really don't know who I'm talking to, doesn't that just prove that my personality is like that, and even if you emphasize it, it's just self-inflicted, don't you think?"

Lan Li's chattering and laughing posture was really, really too calm, and the aura of the high-ranking person emanated from the inside out.

Instead, Thomas calmed down – just because he had a tough temper didn't mean he was stupid. In the head-to-head battle of this game, it is obvious that no one can win with a loud voice, so he needs to calm down before he can go head-to-head with Lan Li, right?

Lan Li also keenly captured the subtle changes in Thomas's mood, he was not nervous, but in the middle of it, because it meant that Thomas was also free from the entanglement of negative emotions, and now it was time to talk about business, and both parties were able to maintain their sanity to start the conversation.

"I don't care what Bryce and Seth think, and I don't care if Lang and the propaganda department approve such a proposal, that's the end of it, I'll think it's just nonsense and won't take it to heart, let's just act like this conversation never happened. ”

Solemnly, Lan Li clearly and accurately emphasized his position, cutting off any possibility of misunderstanding.

But how could Thomas compromise so easily, and more precisely, how could Thomas easily let Lilly call the shots?

"I don't know who gave you the courage, so arrogant, so arrogant, so blind, as if the whole world revolved around you. Is it because the actors have been in the spotlight for many years, and then they really think they control the world?" Thomas said slowly, word by word, narrowing his eyes slightly.

The mocking words were full of sharp and sharp attacks, like sharp blades attacking Lan Li, "Who do you think you are? You think you can give orders to me? Only those actors who really have no brains will have this illusion, as if they have autonomy, but let me tell you, everything you have is in our hands, you are just commodities, puppets used to make profits! Big star? Hmph, the most ridiculous word in the world. ”

"Let me tell you, I won't treat what you just said as if it didn't happen, every word and sentence stayed in my mind, and you will pay for your stupidity. Thomas's eyes burst out with sharp and tough power, and the powerful momentum was fully released, "It's too late to regret it now!"

The corners of Thomas's mouth reveal a touch of cruelty, and the pleasure of holding the power of his life is constantly bursting out, and he likes such moments - those glamorous top superstars on the stage are played with by him, and the taste of turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands into rain is even more exciting than / poison / product.

But Lan Li was not as flustered as expected, let alone afraid and withdrawn, not even a little stiff, and no mood swings could be found.

Thomas's expression stiffened slightly, this was not the scene he was expecting to see, "Don't think that you have the initiative, you have completed the contract with the crew, and now you have no way to break the contract easily, no matter what, you have to finish filming this work;

Thomas was slightly out of shape.

He knew, and he admitted it. In the past year, there have been many confrontations, but in the end Thomas has the upper hand, and Longmayer finally chose to compromise and bow his head, which made Lan Li's series of schemes successful, which can be called a heavy blow to Thomas-

Even Warner Bros. was not able to force him to comply, but now he has lost face in front of Lan Li?

Little by little, the negative emotions accumulated in this way, Thomas had almost reached the limit, and now Lan Li was standing in front of him like this, but he still put on that noble and inviolable appearance, which made people can't help but want to tear his mask and see the panic and embarrassment hidden behind it.

Thomas had done his best to control it, but his words were still a little agitated, and reason was temporarily put on the back burner.

To be honest, Lan Li was a little disappointed, after facing Harvey Weinstein, Barry Meyer, Bob Iger and other top bigwigs in the industry, it was inevitable that he would look forward to the rumored Thomas Toole - since Thomas dared to confront Warner Bros. head-on and did not hide his ambitions at all, then he was bound to be a character, but now it seems that his heart, bearing, vision and ability are all a notch lower.

With such a control ability, it is the same level as Chris Hemsworth, but he is actually the CEO of Legendary Pictures?

Such a gap is indeed disappointing.

Thomas instantly captured Lan Li's disappointment, because Lan Li had no intention of hiding it at all, the thick choke and regret in the depths of his eyes were revealed, and he didn't need too many words to reveal a wave of contempt and contempt, and hit Thomas head-on, he really, really didn't like this feeling!

"There's no way I can stop you, so...... Is there a way you can stop me?" Sincerely, Lan Li didn't want such an argument, because the technical content was too low, just like a schoolboy's quarrel, but looking at Thomas in front of him, Lan Li had to cooperate with his level and simplify the problem to a basic level, so that the communication was more efficient.

"Of course, you can create scandals, this is your freedom and your ability. There's no way I can stop it. But without my follow-up, do you think the scandal will continue to hype? More importantly, what do you think will happen if I expose your propaganda plan in front of the media?"

Lan Li is still Lan Li, the unhurried and unhurried way of speaking is really hateful, and it is definitely not easy to stay sanity.

"How dare you!" said Thomas, who had suppressed his anger rolling again, almost gritting his teeth.

Lan Li's smile bloomed like this - people always like to ask Lan Li this question, and his answer never seemed to change, "Would you like to try it?"

If Lan Li really pierced the crew's "scandal hype" strategy, the negative impact on the movie is absolutely unpredictable, will he really destroy the Great Wall?

But thinking about Lan Li's anger when he faced reporters in the hospital, and then thinking about Lan Li's directness at the Oscars, Thomas is not sure.

Lan Li didn't speak, but Thomas couldn't speak.

Lan Li's smile narrowed slightly, and then said, "Mr. Tool, there is one thing that we need to agree on, do you think that if I really don't do what you think, something will happen? You completely ban me in Hollywood? You completely cut off my Oscar prospects? You make all the studios afraid to ask me to film? Or do you just make my reputation completely stinky? Do you think you can do this, or do you think I care?"

Thomas opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound:

Will he be able to do it? Or will Lan Li care?

He suddenly realized that the answer to both questions was no – he felt like a fool.
