When the interview was over, Roy didn't linger any longer, packed up his things and left immediately. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Looking at the "Thor" script in his hand, Lan Li couldn't help but smile, he could feel Roy's kindness, for a newcomer who didn't have an agent to take care of, Roy just gave him a lot of guidance, which was very valuable information.
In fact, putting aside the shackles of Marvel and the choice of commercial films, in fact, among Marvel's many series of comic book heroes, "Thor" is the series with the worst box office results and word-of-mouth feedback, not to mention "Iron Man", "Captain America" and other signboards, even the later "Ant-Man" has also achieved a comprehensive overtake in terms of word-of-mouth, box office, and rate of return.
"Thor" released in 2011, with an investment of 150 million, only received 449 million box office worldwide, not only did not make money, but even made Paramount lose nearly 20 million; Later, in 2013, "Thor 2", thanks to the rise of Marvel, the box office has improved, and the cost of 170 million has been exchanged for 640 million global box office, but because of the super high publicity costs, Paramount only made a small profit of 30 million.
It can be said that the return rate of the "Thor" series has been unsatisfactory, and the global appeal is very limited, if it were not for the entire Marvel Universe pattern of "The Avengers", Paramount almost intended to give up.
From this point of view, "Thor" is not as attractive as Roy suggests.
However, as a newcomer, it is not a good thing to be so picky, missing the opportunity of "Thor", never knowing when the next opportunity will come, they should do their best to seize every opportunity they have, Hollywood is not a circle that is keen on doing charity.
Therefore, Lan Li still read the script of "Thor" carefully. The task of the director is to evolve the script into a picture, while the task of the actor is to derive the deep meaning of the character from the words of the script.
For the next few hours, Lan Li hid in the backstage of the pioneer village, silently flipping through the script.
As in memory, the script of "Thor" is indeed lackluster, especially the characterization of Saul, which lacks the distinctive characteristics of "Iron Man" and "Captain America". However, Loki is indeed an interesting character, and the "Thor" series in the previous life still did not give Loki enough room to play, otherwise he has the potential to become the ultimate villain of the Marvel series.
But, that's not something that Lan Li can decide, is it?
returned to the residence, turned on the light in the hall, looked around, Chris Hemsworth still did not come back, his eyes fell on the "Thor" script in his hand again, Lan Li suddenly felt that his fate was really wonderful - in the last life, Chris relied on the role of "Thor" Rissol, became an instant hit, and opened the peak of his actor career, if there is no Lan Li to disrupt the situation, the development curve of this life should not change much.
So, has Chris now received an invitation to audition for "Thor"? Or is Chris already auditioning and waiting for the next round of notifications? If Lan Li decides to compete in Thor, what will happen to things?
This is the first time that Lan Li has stood at the current point in time, so clearly and concretely examining the future direction of the previous life, he is no longer a spectator, but a participant, a real participant. So, how much will the trajectory of history change? How many hurricanes will this little butterfly from the ancient Chinese country in Asia be able to set off? This is really something to look forward to.
Thinking of this, Lan Li smiled dumbly, returned to his room, put his backpack on the desk, stuffed the script in his hand into the bookshelf next to him, and walked into the bathroom to prepare to wash away the dust of the day, although he had long been used to getting off work in the early hours of the morning, but for Lan Li, sleeping was a very happy thing, and it was good to be able to stay in the bed for a longer time - even if it was only ten minutes.
Chris Hemsworth opened the door, and the light in the living room showed that there were people in the house, and he raised his voice and called, "Blue Rite, Blue Rite?" This is New York, although it is Manhattan, but the security of the lower / city is still not peaceful, and the thieves who break into the door can be encountered every once in a while.
"I was in the bathroom. Lan Li replied with a shouting voice, passing through the thin wall.
Chris then put his mind at ease, leaned against the door, and began to flip through the letters in his hand - Lan Li is a guy who doesn't care about everything, and every time the mailbox at home is stuffed, but Lan Li still doesn't remember to pick up the letter, so he can only wait for Chris to deal with it.
I picked out public letters such as water, electricity and gas, and put them next to the TV cabinet, and then I picked out my own letters and Lan Li's letters, and threw away all the rest of the garbage advertising letters.
"When did you come back? The bedroom was empty last night. Lan Li walked out of the bathroom, wiping her hair while leaning against the bedroom door, chatting and asking.
Chris glanced up, but didn't stop picking up the letter in his hand, "Just came back from Los Angeles this afternoon. After the "cash" with Sean Bean was completed, he stayed in Los Angeles and ran around for his next film, but unfortunately he didn't get much out of it, "How are you doing?
Lan Li shrugged, "Nothing has changed. I went to two auditions and didn't win. "There's nothing to hide, tell the truth.
Chris chuckled, "That's why I refused to shoot a TV series." He pointed at Lan Li with the letter in his hand, and said confidently, "Even if the TV series is successful, it still can't attract the attention of the film company. ”
"I remember you also came out of the TV series. The smile on the corner of Lan Li's mouth rose slightly.
"Facts. Chris nodded, "Fact!" After repeating it twice, "But those are all Australian things, after coming to the United States, I received a lot of offers for TV series, but I turned them all down." Because I know this very well. In fact, these are all told to him by his agent, but for Lan Li, who has no agent, it is his turn to pass on his experience, "Listen to me, even if you don't have an audition invitation, don't compromise, unless you already plan to stabilize in the TV drama industry, you are only twenty years old, and you have countless options." ”
Chris was rarely seen solemn, and his earnest words were full of weight, "Take the 'Pacific War' as an example." I was in Los Angeles lately, and I heard a lot of news that it was really a focus work, but all eyes were on Hanks and Spielberg, and no one was going to notice the actors. This is the dilemma of TV dramas. ”
Lan Li smiled, did not refute, but did not respond, he was more curious about another detail, "You also heard the news of the 'Pacific War' in Los Angeles?"
"It's mostly positive, and I think Hanks and Spielberg have done a great job again. Chris was very willing to share that inside information, because this was something that Lan Li couldn't get into, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but rise, "Recently, I heard that HBO is carrying out propaganda, hoping that 'Pacific War' can hit the Emmy Awards, but the demand is not high." ”
"The technical awards should still be fine. Lan Li expressed his opinion, after all, the investment of 223 million is there, and the hard power is worthy of affirmation.
"Who knows. Chris mysteriously halfway through his words, paused for a moment, trying to see the inquisitive curiosity in Lan Li's eyes, but the result failed, which made Chris spread his hands speechlessly and shook his head depressedly, "You don't cooperate at all, how can this magic continue." ”
Lan Li smiled dumbly, then collected his smile and asked, "So what are the rumors in Hollywood?"
Chris raised his chin slightly, revealing a satisfied smile, "It is rumored that HBO is not optimistic about the prospects of the 'Pacific War' this year, although they have to carry out propaganda because of Spielberg's face, but it is estimated that they will not concentrate too much." So, the outlook for the Emmys is bleak. ”
Lan Li gently retracted her jaw, indicating that she understood, but her voice changed, "Chris, why do I think you are gloating?"
Hearing this, Chris almost choked on saliva and coughed violently, Lan Li couldn't help laughing, Chris realized that Lan Li was joking, he couldn't help clenching his fists, "Lan Li, this is not funny! I just care about you!" ”
Lan Li just smiled, didn't respond, turned around and went back to the room, "I'm going to do the laundry now, do you need to wash it?" and then Lan Li paused, turned around and said, "I mean the coat and the like, don't throw the socks and panties to me." ”
Chris raised his hand and smashed an envelope in response, causing Lan Li to laugh again.
Here, there are no washing machines in their apartments, and each floor is equipped with a washing machine and dryer, but there are long queues of people who usually use them, so it is more convenient to simply go to a dedicated laundromat. Lan Li then developed the habit of washing clothes in the early hours of the morning.
Lan Li picked up the dirty clothes of the past few days, picked up the laundry basket, walked to the door, and kicked Chris's calf, "Jean, Hulk." ”
Chris couldn't help but roll his eyes, wanting to refute but couldn't find the right words, so he could only get out of the way in frustration, wave his fist and send Lan Li out, and then slam the door slammed to vent his anger.
After going back and continuing to sort out all the letters, Chris walked all the way to Lan Li's room, put the personal letters belonging to Lan Li on the table, and was about to leave, but his eyes saw the script on the shelf.
The cover is navy blue, with only one word, "Thor", which is concise and clear, and the atmosphere is steady.
