"So, I'd better start with the basics, what kind of person are you?"

Hearing Gavin's first formal question, Lan Li couldn't help but hesitate, but he didn't refute it directly, but thought about it seriously, "This is a philosophical question, and I'm still exploring, who am I and where should I go......"

Gavin immediately realized that there was something wrong with the way he asked questions, Lan Li's words made him laugh dumbly, looking at the narrow light in Lan Li's eyes, Gavin felt that his back began to sweat again, "I mean, everyone knows too little about you at the moment, whether it is the Screen Actors Guild or IMDB, there is very little information about you, I think, we can at least know some basic information." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Basic information?" Lan Li's tail note rose slightly, a little unsure of the meaning of the question.

Gavin further explained, "Now on the Internet, except for your height, weight, and birthday, all other information is blank......"

Lan Li looked interested, "I thought that would be enough. Do you need any special information for actors? I think our work is the best business card. ”

Gavin couldn't help but be stunned, his expression was momentarily embarrassed - he was a reporter for "America Weekly", or was he used to conducting interviews in the form of gossip, and exploring privacy was their style, and now Lan Li suddenly shot back so dignifiedly, he was a little caught off guard, but fortunately, he was more prepared in advance, and he quickly calmed down.

"That's what I mean. We don't have any information about your work at the moment, including your past experiences. Of course, there's a lot more to it, for example, we all know that you're British, but where exactly is your hometown, are you from a different ethnicity, what you did when you were a kid, what you did when you grew up, and what you did when you were a hair, your eyes, and so on. ”

Listening to Gavin's question, Lan Li couldn't help laughing, a little ridiculous, and a little funny, "You mean, someone really cares about these details? I thought that the United States is a country of immigrants, and Hollywood embraces actors from all over the world, and no one cares about these trivial matters." What's more, I'm an actor, not a rugby player. ”

Gavin could feel the sarcasm in Lan Li's words, but he didn't panic, "Don't you know? Recently, you have really created a lot of miracles, and the discussion about you in the Yahoo community has never stopped, however, so far there is really too little information about you, all netizens are enthusiastically expressing their opinions, and all the issues I just mentioned are topics that people are discussing." ”

Lan Li pursed her lips and nodded slightly, but she had no intention of answering. In Lan Li's opinion, those detailed information are not important at all, and he has no intention of becoming a model.

After Gavin finished his tirade, the room suddenly fell silent, which made Gavin more and more nervous, subconsciously wiped his hands and sweat, and glanced down at the list of questions he had prepared, "So if you were to participate in an audition, how would you introduce yourself?"

"Good morning, my name is Ranley Hall, I'm twenty years old, today I'm auditioning for the role of Paul Conroy, I've got a show ready, can I start now?"

After listening to Lan Li's answer, Gavin couldn't help choking, and was a little speechless. Lan Li's self-introduction was completely fine, but he didn't know how to answer. Then Gavin saw the smile on Lan Li's lips, and he laughed out loud. Obviously, if we continue to do so in the same way, we will waste all the time we have to do today.

After thinking about it, Gavin simply put the list of questions back on the table, completely abandoning the original plan, "From 'Pacific War' to 'Buried Alive', people have given a lot of praise for your performance, and many people have speculated that you are an actor from a traditional academy, is that true?"

The interview finally raised a standard question, "Yes, I graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and received a full two years of college education. "I spent about half a year in the West End of London, and after graduating, I came to New York and worked on Broadway for a while, until I got the opportunity to perform in 'War of the Pacific.'" So, yes, I did come from a traditional academy. ”

"It's rare for a young person like you to be able to sit down and dive into a stage play. Gavin was a little surprised.

As we all know, most British actors will continue to polish themselves in stage plays, but many young actors are often confused by the flowers and applause of Vanity Fair when they come to Hollywood. Lan Li chose New York instead of Los Angeles, which is interesting in itself.

"In the beginning, it was the task of the academy, but when you stand on stage and put on a performance, it's a very special feeling, and before you know it, you become one with the character and really feel the charm of the performance. Lan Li's face was full of interest, and it could be seen that his eyes were shining with excitement when he mentioned the performance, "After the filming of the 'Pacific War', I returned to New York and devoted myself to the Off-Broadway performance work again, and I had a very fulfilling life. ”

"From the 'Pacific War' to 'Buried Alive', there was a gap of more than half a year, did you participate in the performance on Off-Broadway?" Gavin showed a surprised expression, this is the real surprise, after all, Lan Li has already cooperated with top big names in the "Pacific War", and after the end of filming, he can still maintain a normal heart and return to Off-Broadway - and it's not Broadway, which is really impressive, "So, what's the name of the play?

"No, no, no. Lan Li smiled brightly and shook his head, looking very relaxed, "Several of the plays I participated in were experimental works, and one of them was produced by students at Columbia University, not to mention the name, and I can't even find relevant information on the Internet." ”

No wonder. This explains the reason why all the netizens mobilized were not able to dig up more information.

"What I remember most is the performance in a semi-basement. Lan Li's expression showed a thoughtful look, and the corners of his relaxed mouth involuntarily rose, "There can only accommodate a maximum of thirty people there, and when the performance was performed that day, the audience was only a dozen people, but that play mobilized a full twenty-three people." In other words, there were even more actors than the audience, and later, the actors who did not have performance tasks all sat down in the audience, pretending to be the audience, and applauded together. ”

Lan Li himself couldn't help but laugh, but Gavin showed a stunned look, "But that kind of acting experience is really special." Because these audiences weren't high-class Broadway intellectuals, they were just theater lovers – or bored spectators – they reacted very directly and their emotions were often felt during the performance...... Hehe. Lan Li couldn't help but chuckle, which made Gavin look puzzled, "At the end of the day, I just walked off the stage and invited the audience to join us in the performance, which was really fun that day." ”

Gavin was really dumbfounded at this time, on the surface, Lan Li was completely a gentleman who followed the rules, and even had the traditional British abstinence/sex style, and it was completely impossible to connect with something with a civilian temperament like Off-Broadway and underground theater. But if you think about it carefully, there is a huge difference between Lan Li's two roles so far, which not only shows Lan Li's ambition as an actor, but also Lan Li's momentum to challenge the limit.

"I can't imagine that picture, but I can imagine your joy and happiness. Gavin couldn't help but exclaim, "Then you must not have been used to it for a while, right? Overnight, all the spotlights suddenly turned on you, which obviously changed drastically from your previous life." ”

"Actually, I didn't feel too real about it before Toronto. "I can still go out on the street normally, and I can go anywhere freely, and occasionally some spectators can recognize me, but they can't call my name." So, overall, I feel okay. ”

Looking at Lan Li's calm face, Gavin shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know about the rest, but for media reporters, everyone is extremely lively." Now in the hotel corridor, there are at least thirty journalists waiting for the opportunity to interview you. I'm the first one today. ”

"I suspect that the Emmys may still have a bit of weight. Lan Li's ridicule made Gavin laugh directly, and the next question came out.

"Since winning the Emmy, you've been the focus of discussion, and some people on the Internet have even wondered if you have a deep showbiz background, like Emma Roberts. Gavin finally asked about the first gossip, and he couldn't help but be a little excited, which reminded him of the first interview he got after becoming a reporter, young and excited.

"Haha. This was Lan Li's first reaction, and after thinking about it seriously, he couldn't help but laugh twice, "I've been crossing my fingers and praying for this day to come, but obviously, I'm missing a little luck. ”

"But why did you choose to perform on the street after the Emmy? It's a surprise, and a lot of people think it's a pre-shot. Gavin's questions began to sharpen, and gradually became sharper.

"If you want to think so, that's their freedom. Lan Li unexpectedly did not make a defense, but shrugged his shoulders calmly, "Although I don't know, shooting a street performance video and uploading it to YouTube will help my career as an actor......; It's an honor for me to be able to entertain netizens. ”

Lan Auditorium's dignified posture made Gavin speechless, he thought about it, and asked aggressively, "So you're saying that your family really doesn't have an acting background?"

"If so, so what?" Lan Li didn't evade it, and asked back, and Gavin was choked up.
