831 Whimsy

Katherine Zeta-Jones left the brightly lit and palatial hall with a glass of white wine in her hand and saw Lance standing by the pool. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, Lance is standing next to Tom Cruise, Edward Norton, Jeff Daniels, Sandra Bullock, and Reese Witherspoon, a group of people talking and laughing, so lively, even if you want to ignore it, it is very difficult. Not only Catherine, but also countless pairs of eyes watching the movement here all the time, there is no doubt that Lance is the absolute focus of the night, and Lance is obviously more attractive than the low-key and calm Lee/Ann - of course, the bad account of the academy tonight is not necessarily one of the important factors.

Every person in the industry knows what it means to be a great director, not to mention that this director has not missed a single shot in the past three years, which is even more incredible. No one wants to "have a bad relationship" with such a director, on the contrary, such a director will become every actor's dream partner. Catherine is no exception, having missed Sin City before, and this incident still haunts Catherine to this day.

Catherine didn't hesitate and walked straight in the direction where Lance was, she didn't shrink back and wait for her moment, she was the one who took the initiative.

Jeff's surprised voice could be heard in the distance, "...... God, that's a weird idea, Tom, are you sure it's okay? Jeff didn't forget to look around, and the vigilant gesture immediately caused everyone to chuckle. Jeff is implying that Tom has always been image-oriented, and Tom's PR team, agency team and assistant team are notorious in the industry, they always go to great lengths to maintain Lance's image, even forbidding Tom to drink too much alcohol at parties.

Tom was clearly in a good mood tonight, and was not offended by Jeff's teasing, he pointed at Jeff with his right hand with red wine, and said solemnly, "Don't forget, I'm the one who pays them." It turned out to be a roll of Lance's eyes, which made everyone laugh, and Tom looked at Lance completely helpless.

"Looks like I'm missing an important part, why isn't Tom angry?" Catherine's words were a little abrupt, but the content was seamlessly integrated into the conversation just now, and everyone turned their attention away in an instant, Catherine did not panic, and nodded her chin meaningfully, "It seems that I did miss the critical moment." ”

The same discourse, because of different intonations and contexts, takes on completely different meanings. The first sentence is the etiquette of intervening in the topic, but the second sentence is self-mocking, meaning "I didn't know what was going on, so I said the wrong thing", and the calm demeanor and witty tone made people laugh.

"You didn't miss anything, just a party." Tom, as the person concerned, took the initiative to take over the topic, and it could be seen in a relaxed tone that he didn't care about the ridicule.

Reese, who was standing next to her, exclaimed, "Just now Lance came up with a novel game, I hope we all participate in it, it's so interesting, Lance always has endless ideas, and I can't wait to see 'Fury Road' released now." ”

Reese was bombarded with no brains, Catherine not only didn't understand, but became more and more confused, and subconsciously turned her head to look at Sandra, she raised her hands and made a gesture of surrender, "Let Lance explain it to you, I'm not sure what I'm going to do now." The curious and excited smile on her face made Catherine even more curious.

"It's just a small video made to promote the new movie." Lance said lightly.

Catherine reacted immediately, "Is it the recent dance video that has become so popular everywhere?" ”

Edward nodded, interjecting to explain, "Lance plans to make another small video, and in April, to cooperate with the promotion, he plans to invite a group of adult actors, walk through a bizarre mirror, and then become the zombie ...... in 'Fury Road'"

"That's not a zombie!" Reese and Sandra said in unison, which made everyone laugh.

Edward pursed his lips, "Yes, those people who look like zombies......" Lance has explained just now, in fact, all the people in the viral video are people, not zombies, the reason why he called it this is because on the one hand, it is for publicity, and on the other hand, it is also because the group led by the immortal old Joe in the wasteland world is no longer like people, ghosts are not like ghosts, "and then ......" Edward himself couldn't help but laugh, as if he thought of something interesting, "Then we can do similar actions to ourselves, As for what exactly will happen, Lance says it's up to us to conceive it all by ourselves. Edward couldn't help but laugh again, and turned to look at Lance, "That's a fantastic idea, I'm constantly thinking about how I'm going to perform and what I'm going to do after I transform, haha." God, what the hell is in your head! ”

"Talent. This is still the case the last time I confirmed. Lance replied earnestly, causing everyone to clap and laugh.

Catherine's eyes fell on Edward. Edward Norton is a special presence in the industry, he is a real rich second generation, with a prominent family background, but he wants to be an actor wholeheartedly; has outstanding acting skills, won an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor in his debut, and has a wide range of contacts, Dustin Hoffman, Steven Spielberg, and Ridley Scott are his close friends; However, his personality is very distinct, he rarely participates in party activities outside of performances, and his private life is almost strictly insulated from the paparazzi, but he is short-tempered, and even does not hesitate to directly scold reporters.

Edward doesn't have many friends in the circle, but all of the people who can become his friends are recognized by him, and they are all weirdos who go off the rails. Wes Anderson, for example, Lance. Edward shows up at the Sunset Tower Hotel tonight, and it's certain that Lance is the main reason.

It's just that I didn't expect that because of Lance, Edward was even willing to appear in a viral video in order to promote "Fury Road", which is really too rare.

Edward, however, did not notice Catherine's gaze, turned his head to Lance, and said seriously, "You mean, can you do anything?" What if I just wore a pair of panties and did calisthenics there? ”

Lance shrugged, "I don't see anything wrong. ”

Catherine saw Tom's expression at the moment, and finally understood what they were laughing at. Tom cherishes his image the most, and playing the villain role in "Killing with a Knife" is the only image break in his career so far, and if Tom were to appear in such a viral video, it would definitely cause an uproar.

"Tom, do you want to be in person, too?" Catherine asked curiously.

"If Lance is willing to transform me into Superman." Tom said half-jokingly, but it was clear that Tom was not worried about his image.

Catherine looked at Lance with burning eyes, and sure enough, she caught Lance's attention, and she smiled and said, "I wonder if I have the honor to be one of them?" ”

Lance's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and to be honest, he was a little surprised.

Making a viral video of "Zombie and Me" is the core content of the next wave of propaganda for "Fury Road". But Lance doesn't want to follow the path of the first three viral videos, just make a video and go viral, but wants everyone to join in. So, Lance came up with the idea of using his connections to invite friends in the circle, who starred in the video, transformed into zombies through the mirror, and did some funny or funny actions.

If promoted properly, not only from the perspective of the topic, the star effect will really detonate the eye, but the final effect will be even better than zombie dancing; Moreover, the video itself is not directly related to "Fury Road", but is more like an interesting video, which can attract more ordinary viewers to join it, further expand the mass base of "Fury Road", and make people accustomed to the wasteland world style created in the movie.

Still, Lance was a little worried. Because this viral video itself will not pay any remuneration and completely rely on friendship to star; At the same time, the actors had to be ugly and funny in the video - they had to be covered in white powder, painted with smoke and, if necessary, even bald headgear, like all the characters in "Fury Road".

In such a situation, not every actor is willing to act. After all, Hollywood is a mature industry, and the image of actors has become an indispensable part of the entire brand packaging, not all roles can be played, and no cameos can be taken.

But I didn't expect that Catherine was willing to take the initiative to participate.

Of course, Lance knows that this is the relationship between people, and this is how connections and popularity are established. "Of course, no problem, it's an honor to have Miss Jones in the role. If it's not abrupt, can I ask you to recreate a 'Chicago' dance in the video? "Of course, if Mr. Douglas is willing to participate, then there is more room for play." "Michael Douglas, Catherine's husband, that's the big guy in the industry.

"Michael would probably say no." Catherine didn't take advantage of the situation and agreed, she was her, Michael was Michael, and in their careers, the two were separated, "You know, Michael still wants to show his handsome and funny side." Catherine glanced at Tom and winked at Lance, "I'll ask him anyway, though, it's a very interesting invitation." ”

Tom was aware of Catherine's gaze at this time, and could not help but say aloud, "Hey, miss, I'm handsome, fact; But, I'm not funny, isn't that a fact that everyone agrees? The gesture of trying to clarify made everyone laugh. (To be continued.) )
