105 Punch lines

"Hungry for attention?" Lance's tail note rose slightly, but it was not a question, but a rhetorical question, with a gesture of course, which made everyone in the scene chuckle, and Lance continued, "I know, if I say this is to record the filming process of the film, as a memory; Or maybe it was just an accident, which would have made things a little easier......"

Most independent filmmakers have the temperament of some artists, and there is always a kind of arrogance in the artist's body, which is a kind of backbone, and most artists are unwilling to admit that they bend their waists for five buckets of rice. That's why Lance said that.

However, before Lance could finish speaking, Jay interrupted him and shook his head, "No, you missed the opportunity. The subtext is that Lance's expression just now has ruined the image in the audience's mind, and now even if Lance puts on an image of an "artist", no one will believe it. This made the audience laugh, mixed with a lot of applause.

Lance didn't care, just shrugged his shoulders, "That's what I mean." "Now the film market is becoming more and more mature, but at the same time, the competition is becoming more and more fierce, and there are more and more talents invested in independent films, which is a good thing for the audience, but not necessarily for me." This self-deprecation made Jay chuckle, "As a novice director, filming a work with a unique theme, and it's also in Portuguese, I think I really need some help." ”

Lance only used a few words to show weakness, but honestly and calmly admitted the hint in Jay's words just now, and immediately won the applause of all the audience. When the noise was a little quieter, Lance added, "I mean, except for alcohol. Echoing the first half of the sentence, the self-deprecating ridicule made everyone at the scene laugh.

Jay also applauded Lance softly in his heart, but the sharpness of his words did not relent, "But, why a blog?" I mean, there are many options for propaganda means, don't they? ”

"No, not for me." Lance blocked Jay's words and directly denied that Jay cast an inquiring gaze, and Lance continued, "The reason is very simple, because the Internet doesn't cost money. ”

Jie opened his mouth slightly, as if he was a little surprised, "It's that simple?" ”

Lance nodded, "It's as simple as that. Looking at Jay's surprised expression, Lance spread his hands, "Don't overcomplicate me, I have sandwiches for lunch." This simple sentence contains too many deep meanings, which makes the audience burst into laughter again.

"It's free publicity, but the effect is so outstanding, I didn't expect it, right?" Jay finally brings the topic to the point.

"No, I wouldn't say that." Lance's answer stunned Jay, who retorted, "Oh? Do you have a different opinion on this? Lance chuckled, "The most amazing thing about the Internet is that it is a platform that anyone can access, including you, including me......" Lance's meaningful words seemed to imply that the two of them were in prison and were forbidden to communicate with the outside world, which made everyone at the scene burst into laughter, "So, everyone has the right to express their opinions on it." I just didn't expect that so many people would be interested in a film about Brazil. ”

The last self-deprecating joke reminded the scene of a whistle again, and Jay couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and applaud gently, "I have to admit that this left a deep impression on me, and I also began to become interested in movies." Jay was telling the truth, and the brief conversation really shifted his interest from the blog to the film, "The interview has been going on for a while, but I think I seem to have made a mistake by never mentioning the work, so let's talk, 'City of God,' yes, I said the name of the film, 'City of God.'" ”

The audience applauded collectively, and the staff of the program team were a little surprised, although this was the effect they expected, but the audience's reaction far exceeded expectations, and the atmosphere was really hot.

"It's a pity that I haven't seen this movie yet, I only watched the trailer......" Jay said and looked at Lance, who took the initiative to take over the topic, "Yes, it's a pity that the movie is only screened in a few art theaters at the moment, if you want to watch it, you need to queue up to buy movie tickets." ”

Lance's natural tone made Jay laugh dumbly, "Queue? ”

"Yes, in my dreams." Lance nodded.

Jay raised an eyebrow, "That must have been a sweet dream." ”

The quick answer to the question made everyone laugh, and Jay smiled widely, "So, tell me about this movie - and those who can't buy tickets in your dreams." ”

Lance nodded repeatedly, "Of course, of course." It's a ...... Uh, movies about the City of God. ”

Jay was still waiting for the next step, but Lance also looked back quietly, and then waited for the next step, which made Jay stunned, and he spread his hands, "So what?" Lance pursed his lips and shrugged, "That's all." Jay opened his mouth, then touched his nose with a speechless expression, "So, aren't you going to promote your movie?" After receiving a nod from Lance, Jay continued, "Is this your best introduction?" God, you're driving me crazy. ”

Jay's accusation made the audience already laugh like crazy, and Lance also laughed brightly, and finally waited for the sound of the scene to calm down a little, Lance looked at Jay, "So, do I have a chance to come again?" ”

"No, you missed it." Jay's answer was short and affirmative.

Lance raised his hands with a helpless expression, then put them down, and seemed to accept the result. This abnormal expression made Jie stunned, the brief conversation just now made Jie clearly know that Lance is not a person who gives up lightly, the conversation between the two people is-for-tat, sparks, there is almost no gap, and the laughter continues from the beginning to the end, but now Lance has compromised like this? This is not normal.

"Are you serious? Is this the introduction of the movie like this? Jay continued with a hint of curiosity, but Lance didn't speak, just raised his hands, still calmly accepting the reality, which made Jay have to speak again, "When you were promoting the movie, you were like this?" 'It's a movie about the City of God, so it's called the City of God?' ”

Lance's eyes widened, and he looked like he had suddenly realized, "So...... I can......? "The subtext is, did I get a second chance? The cheap and obedient expression made Jie roll his eyes directly, and the audience collectively clapped and laughed, but Lance did not miss this opportunity, "I mean, of course, there are many ways to introduce a movie, but my film is really special, it is not about a certain character, but about the entire City of God as the protagonist, telling about the changes here in the past thirty years." ”

"But there are still main characters?" Jay asked.

Lance pursed his lips and nodded, "Of course, the story is still the story of people, but these characters are part of the entire City of God. At this point, Lance looked at the audience, "I just thought that instead of praising my film here, it would be better to save people a little time." Hey, are you guys interested in thirty years of Queens' history? If you think it's good, you can go to the slums of Brazil; If there is no interest, then ......" Then Lance raised his hands and showed a regretful expression.

"Now it seems that you are indeed an independent director." Jay repeats meaningfully, meaning that Lance is full of personality.

Instead, Lance hesitated, and said with a smile, "If you think." This stunned Jay, who seemed to sense Jay's reaction and continued, "It's like you're a late-night talk show host." ”

This is a fact, Jay is indeed a talk show host, but when Lance interprets it like this, it feels strange, as if it ...... It's as if to say he's a stripper/dancer/girl, "No! Jay frowned and raised his voice, "I'm a comedy artist. ”

Lance spread his hands and showed a "look" expression. Only then did Jay react that he had fallen into Lance's trap, which made Jay's expression unpredictable, and the applause and laughter of the audience were drowned out in the coaxing, and even the staff began to heckle along.

Jay wanted to go one step closer, but found that the director was signaling that the fifteen-minute interview time was up. Jay's first reaction was "What, I'm not done yet", and I didn't have time to talk about the topic of war and the topic of blogs! But then it turned out that it was not that his interview was not over, but that Lance's appearance far exceeded expectations, and they didn't even talk seriously about the work "City of God", but they already made a deep impression on him.

Jay realizes that he is not only underestimating Lance, but many, many people underestimating the emerging genius director.

Jie immediately collected his thoughts and said with a smile, "Now it seems that I am a comedy artist, and you are a director." "The difference between a director and an independent director is just a prefix, but the meaning is distinctly different," if you are interested in the director's work, please go to the local art theater in time to queue up to buy movie tickets. Jay didn't forget to tease Lance, "'City of God', I hope everyone can give feedback as soon as possible, and then I will decide whether to go to the cinema or not." Let's thank Lance! Thank you for being with us today. ”

Jay finished the whole interview in a few words, then stood up again and gave Lance a hug and patted Lance on the shoulder, "I'm looking forward to your next time you appear on my show again." ”

Lance gave Jay a big smile, "I hope so." ”

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Seven Cats is here to greet everyone for the New Year, and I hope everyone will have a good year in the Year of the Monkey and be happy every day!
