At Marshall's urging, Theolod finally had a cell phone of his own. And when Theorod got his number, Marshall couldn't wait to send Theorrod's private number to a friend who had exchanged numbers (Marshall's) with him in a □□ way.

His very obvious act of throwing off the burden made Theorod a little speechless, but Marshall told him in a serious way that he did this so that he could better integrate into the Hollywood actor family, not because Theorod's birthday was approaching at the end of the month, so that he didn't want to receive countless phone calls and harassment.

However, you've put your true thoughts on your face, okay? On the way to the location of the Empire magazine interview, Theorod, who was sitting in the car, rolled his eyes indecently at Marshall.

The interview for Empire magazine was scheduled for an interview at a Hilton hotel, and by the time Hilde arrived at the assigned room, all the texts needed for the interview had been prepared, and he seemed to have arrived a little early, he was the first to arrive.

"Hi, hello, I'm Katherine Donner, the reporter and editor for this interview, and you're Theorod Lecht, the actor of Allen, right?" The brown-haired woman, who was communicating with the cameraman, saw Theorod pried open the door alone, and immediately greeted him with a smile on her face, and warmly extended her hand to Theorod.

She is a senior editor at Empire magazine, and every issue of the magazine always has one or two articles written by her. Years of experience as an entertainment journalist have taught her how to treat every star she meets, even if the other person is just a newcomer who is not well-known, she will show her best smile in a friendly way. And at the moment, wearing a slightly casual formal suit, she does look quite easy to win the favor of strangers.

"Hello, Ms. Donner, it seems that I came a little early, and if I disturb you, I can go out and walk around the garden first. Theorod said very politely, without the nervousness of being interviewed by a reporter for the first time, and the polite smile and just the right tone made Catherine a little more fond and interested in the big boy.

"Please, just call me Catherine, I don't want the interview to be filled with tension and formality, it's not my style, and I might be out of tune because of it. Catherine laughed, "Actually, we're ready, you just need to sit on the couch for a while, and I'm sure everyone will be there soon." As a bonus for being the first to arrive, I'll give you a hint that some of the questions in the interview later may be a little unfriendly for newcomers, so you'd better be prepared. ”

Catherine winked at Theorod.

When Theolod heard this, he immediately frowned, looking distressed: "Really? That's too bad, after all, I start to get nervous when I see beautiful women, and I'm not good at dealing with these." ”

He raised his eyes to look at Catherine, and Catherine's pretended annoyance and always clear and sincere blue-green eyes made Catherine laugh when she saw it: "Don't worry, for the sake of you calling me a beauty, I won't scribble." ”

Soon after, the second and third interviewees appeared in the room, none other than the long-lost director Gregory, and the screenwriter Steve. As soon as Gregory saw Theorod, he smiled like a kind old man. He and Theorod mentioned the editing schedule and soundtrack, as well as Theorod's second film, Kid Strange, and said that he was never worried about any character in Theorod's hands, because he believed he could interpret any character perfectly.

Steve agrees, and now asks Gregory every day about the progress of his editing, as he can't wait to see the film come out.

Probably because of the schedule, Richard Gere and Laura Linney arrived late, and when everyone arrived, the interview began.

The magazine is dedicated to "First Degree Fear" in two parts, the first of which is naturally an introduction to the film and some behind-the-scenes production, accompanied by a few set photos and stills. This part has been done before, and executive producer Howard has put together a perfect document and mailed it to Catherine.

The second part is the purpose of everyone gathering at the Hilton Hotel at this moment - interviews with the creators, accompanied by a few hard photos or life photos. Judging from the distribution of questions, Catherine has made a lot of preparations to ensure that everyone will be asked at least five questions, and of course she will have a focus, and her focus will be on Gregory and the biggest star of the film, Richard. And in the layout of the magazine's inner pages after the end of the first qiē, she will only pick out some more exciting content as the final draft.

And these positions are generally reserved for more famous stars, such as Xiaorod, who are inconspicuous newcomers, most of whom will only mention one or two sentences in the final deadline, and are completely regarded as a foil. It's the unwritten rule of the magazine industry, but for newcomers who aren't very popular, they'll be happy to be mentioned by a big magazine for a sentence or two, so they don't expect to get a side eye.

In other people's question sessions, Theorod's expression was always natural, sometimes he would interject a sentence or two to supplement it, and sometimes he would sit quietly and listen. His act of properly proving himself without being too showy and presumptuous is a sign of respect for both the interviewer and the interviewee, and this old fritter even makes Catherine forget his newcomer status.

And Steve seems to be a little dissatisfied with the media evaluation of Theorod in the past few months, so when Catherine asked him if he would create a similar subject in the future, he directly shifted his focus to Theorod -

"I don't know, maybe, because I don't know if there will be a similar character after it comes out with the same impact that Will and Allen can bring. But now I really want to create a script for Theo...... Oops, I seem to have told you my plan. ”

"Made for Theo?" Catherine was a little surprised, she hadn't encountered a situation where a screenwriter had created a script for a specific actor, but most of those actors were long-established actors, and Theorod? This is his first film.

"Yes, you weren't there during the interview, so you don't understand why I did it, and Gray should know better than I do about the set. All I can say is that Theo is like a source of inspiration for me, and when he interviews, it's like I've met a soulmate, and you can't imagine it. Steve said this, patting Theolod on the back, who was sitting next to him.

Theolod also cooperated with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "I just did what I had to do, Steve, you created the character of Allen." ”

"But you turned his character into a human. Steve's expression was a little solemn.

Catherine would have been fooled up if she didn't know that the screenwriter was praising Theorod, and she glanced at the others and found that they were not repulsed or dissatisfied with Steve's approach, but instead stared at the big and small with a smile on their faces, apparently they were tacitly determined to help Theorod become famous and gain popularity.

In fact, this kind of thing is not surprising, when other people think that you have a promising future and good character, they will naturally befriend you, if Theolod has poor acting skills and immature personality, then he has long been marginalized and can't even get this role. Who would pull down their faces to curry favor with a small vacuum after being a big name in Hollywood for so long?

"Well, I really can't imagine it, but you guys made me interested in the interview, can you tell me what the hell was going on?" Catherine followed Steve's words and turned the conversation to Theorod, who was "spoiled" by everyone.

At the mention of the interview, everyone except Richard and Linnie laughed, including Theolod. But Steve's smile is schadenfreude, Theorod's is embarrassed and embarrassed, and Gregory is clearly wry. The reactions of the three of them naturally aroused the curiosity of the hero and heroine.

"Yes, you always say that you met a pervert during the interview, but none of you told me what happened during your interview. Li looked at the three insiders, looking like they were waiting to see a good show.

And Linnie also gossiped: "I sensed from the smiles of the three of you that there must be a big revelation, wait for me to sit down first, so as not to fall to the ground in fright after a while." ”

"I thought it would be weird for me to repeat it, and I didn't want to be beaten, so I kept silent. Theorod immediately raised his hands and looked at Gregory.

"Oh, I think the director has the most say in this kind of thing, I'm just a small screenwriter. Steve followed Theorod's example, raised his hands, puffed up his beer belly, and looked at the director.

Seeing that both of them were shamelessly throwing off their burdens, as the "victim" during the interview, Gregory had no choice but to speak: "Okay, okay, I said, in fact, I was the 'victim' at that time, because Theo almost beat me up......"

"What?" exclaimed Catherine, and Richard and Linny looked at him in surprise, only Steve patting Theolod on the shoulder and laughing.

"It's not that kind of fight, don't get me wrong, Theo is a good gentle boy. Seeing that Catherine seemed to have misunderstood something, Gregory immediately waved his hand to clarify, "Actually, this is the case, it can be seen from the trailer we released before that Alan is a guy with a dual personality, which is one of the reasons why it was difficult for us to decide on Allen's candidate at the beginning." So during the interview, we ask the interviewer to show what they think of Allen. ”

And Theo ...... I have to admit that he was a genius who analyzed Alan's dual personality from just a short description of Alan that he had sent to the interviewer, and I dare say that none of the 99 people we interviewed before were able to do this, and they only realized that Allen was special when we asked to play another personality. ”

"Of course, that's not the point, the point is ...... During the game, Theo suddenly rushed at me like a beast, grabbed me by the collar, and pulled me out of my chair. That's really dragging, before this I never thought that a young man who looked gentle and elegant, with thin arms and thin legs, could still pull me, a middle-aged man, up from a chair with one hand, and at that time looking at his fierce and hideous appearance, I really thought that he would punch me in the eye, really, but he didn't. ”

"But he punched the wall, and you didn't see it, and his hand was scratching the skin, but afterwards the kid was like a nobody, and I wonder if there was something wrong with his pain nerves. Gregory looked at Richard with a look of the rest of his life, "Okay, Richard, you should balance your mind, I'm the first person to be scared by Theo's improvisation...... Oh no, I'm not a spoiler, I can't spoil it, Catherine, you just don't say anything. ”

Gregory made a joke. During the publicity period, it is also one of the propaganda techniques to release the plot little by little to arouse the audience's interest.

"That's not going to work. Catherine shook her notebook triumphantly, "I've written it down." Sounds like you've got a good interview...... Thrilling. ”

"That's right, we also recorded a video of the interview, so if you want to know more, we'll be waiting for the DVD to come out. Theolod said cheerfully in a televised tone, "That's right, I'm just whetting your appetite and selling." ”

"Okay, if you succeed, I'll buy a plate. Catherine was amused by Theorod, "Straight to the point, Theo, can you tell us about your first time filming, how do you feel?"

"Well, my friend has asked me this question countless times, maybe it's because the pursuit of acting pleasure is my lifelong dream, and when I got the role, my first reaction was not 'Oh yes, I actually got the supporting actor and I can play against Richard, God I'm not dreaming!'" Theorod vividly performed this state of surprise, holding his face, like the hero of the famous painting in "The Scream", screaming, and then looking natural," Instead, I was thinking, I was finally on this path to pursue my dreams......"

The next few questions, intentionally or unintentionally, always revolved around Theorod. After the end of the visit, several people took a few more sets of photos before they officially finished work. At Gregory's insistence, the five of them went to the Hilton restaurant for a meal together, and then Theorod followed Gregory directly to the recording studio, recorded a few lines, and the day's work was officially over.
