Chapter 727: Warrior-level interview
There are many reporters, in order to catch the first-hand news, they also fought hard, squatted in front of Leila's house for two nights, and finally found an opportunity to rush to her car.
"Director Moran, about the Oriental actor that everyone is talking about, at first when they knew that he was a singer, they thought he had no acting skills, and now they think that he is not qualified to play Western magic movies, do you have anything to say about this?"
Lyra looked speechlessly at the pale-faced guy who was almost hit by her car and flew out. In the past, it was not that there were no warriors rushing to block her car for an interview, but there were very few who really had the courage to stop in front of the speeding car. People don't even want their lives, they just want to ask a question from her mouth, can she refuse so unkindly?
So she replied: "Whether an actor has acting skills or not is not something that he says with his mouth, nor does it depend on his own performance." As for qualifications, I just want to know, what are the qualifications for Western magic movies? It's not acting, it's race? Americans are still not a free country? If even the mind is imprisoned, then what freedom is there to talk about?"
Leila's words made the reporter a little excited, and he seemed to be able to see the news that his story could occupy the front page of the newspaper tomorrow. It's not in vain what he did just now, didn't you see that his body was still trembling now?
"So Director Moran, do you think joining an Oriental actor is the way to pursue freedom?"
"I just want to say that everything has to be verified with your own eyes, not by guesswork and speculation. Did I choose the wrong person, did I make the movie a bad movie, so that after the release, wouldn't it be better for everyone to talk about this topic after watching the movie?"
"What would you say to those people about the boycott?"
Leila thought for a moment and smiled faintly in front of the reporter: "I know that they are all big fans of The Lord of the Rings, and they love this great book as much as I do, and they are afraid of being made into an unsightly film. But I still say the same thing, whether it's good or not, whether it's a bad movie or not, let's take a look with my own eyes first. ”
After answering three questions, Leila let the car go.
This is also her rule, which is widely circulated among the paparazzi, that is, if you can catch the opportunity to interview her without fear of death, she will generally answer three questions. More than three questions, even if you still have a stomach to ask, she will not answer you again. If she still doesn't leave, the bodyguards who escorted her will have a chance to appear.
Paparazzi can go out of their way to get close to the end of the day, but that doesn't mean they like to be thrown to the side of the road by the neck. So after the tragedy of the first few "pioneers" made them grasp this, everyone knew how to follow her rules.
But before that, let's see if I have a chance to interview her. Not everyone can have the courage to stand in front of her, even if they know that Leila's car can't hit her knowing that someone is in front of her, but what if her car doesn't stop?
So I don't know how many people want to try to interview Leila, and finally really have the courage to do it on their fingers.
The next day, the transcript of the interview was placed on the front page of a newspaper.
There was no accident, and it immediately led to a heated discussion.
Leila's words always sound reasonable, is that why she can be so successful while others can only look up to her?
Since when did everyone start to follow the crowd as soon as they were slightly guided by others, and they didn't even care about seeing the truth with their own eyes, so they condemned others first?
It wasn't a very popular newspaper, but because of Leila's interview, the day's sales directly broke their sales record. Originally, because I guessed that such a situation might occur, I printed five times more amount, but who knew that it would be sold out in a few hours, and the boss beat his chest and said that he had made a lot of money.
In fact, even if there is no interview, Leila will find other media outlets for interviews.
Zhang Guorong's matter definitely needs to be conclusive, and his reputation can't really be splashed with dirty water just because of the relationship between a few mice. And for the sake of the box office, she will also make an understanding before the release, seeing that there is only more than a month left in the release, there will be no chance if she doesn't prepare.
On the same day, Louise, at the behest of Leila, arranged for several media outlets under Moran to interview Zhang Guorong, who was still in the United States. To be precise, it is an interview with Leila and Zhang Guorong, even if he is now being followed by some people, he is still much worse than Leila in terms of attention.
Who's calling this America -- In this place where Oriental actors aren't welcome, Leila has to follow suit.
The first to come to interview was a reporter from the Entertainment Daily. He's interviewed Leila many times and is a partner who knows each other well.
As a veteran journalist, the questions he asks are usually right on the head, and they are questions that readers are very willing to understand and will not touch the boss's bottom line. So basically, now that "Entertainment Home Daily" sends people to interview, he basically takes over the interview task.
are all acquaintances, and at the beginning, the two sides saved the time of greeting and went directly to the question session.
"Director Moran, may I ask why you chose an oriental actor?"
Leila said, "It's actually quite simple. I've always admired Mr. Cheung's acting skills, and I happened to meet him when I went to Hong Kong, and we had a good conversation, so we invited him to play a role in the new movie. ”
The reporter turned to Zhang Guorong: "When he accepted the invitation, what did Mr. Zhang think?"
Zhang Guorong's English is very fluent, which makes the translator on the side useless: "At first I was surprised, I thought it was a joke. But later, Director Moran's sincerity let me know that she was serious. So I took it. ”
He didn't say that Leila simply threw the script to him at that time, and let him pick and choose characters in it at will. At present, he has already been questioned just by acting, and if he tells the truth, it is estimated that it will cause more protests.
The reporter was a little curious: "Before taking the role, did Mr. Zhang know what type of movie it was?"
"Yes, before I took it, Director Moran had already handed me the script. And I've had the pleasure of reading it, and I really like the grand view of the world. ”
"So don't you think there's anything wrong with you starring in a Western magic work?"
Zhang Guorong shook his head in his heart, but his face still had to be very calm: "I don't think so. First of all, Moran is a very good director, and every one of her works is very classic. Since she thinks she can, then there is nothing to doubt. ”
