The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 115: 3 Gu Maolu
"Jonas, thank you for your help."
Lan Li closed the door of the passenger seat, and the truck filled with a large load of goods swayed out of the street. Turning around, Nathan rubbed his hands with a stern expression and stood two steps. I was at a loss in the distance, which made Lan Li smile, "Cross the street next to me, the subway station is at the next intersection, or do you need me to call a taxi for you?"
"No, no need." Nathan shook his head again and again, but then felt wrong again, "I mean, I can go back by myself, I don't need to trouble you." He hesitated for a moment, "I... uh, the subway will be fine. , The subway is great!"
In fact, Nathan didn't know where he could go back because he came to New York on a business trip with Fisher. Now that he was fired, he suddenly became at a loss. However, Nathan also knew that he couldn't bother Lan Li anymore. The two of them were abandoned on the highway just now, not in front of the village and no shop in the back. If it weren't for Lan Li to stop a truck, it is estimated that he was still trekking on the road at this time, and he would not be able to reach the city when it was dark.
"Thank you, I haven't thanked you for your help just now." After regaining his senses, Nathan realized this and quickly expressed his thanks, but he immediately noticed that Lan Li's gaze passed over his shoulder, and he threw towards the back. , He could not help but turned his head and looked over, and then saw a middle-aged man in a suit and tie.
He was slightly fat, with a mellow beer belly and a kind smile, which gave people a kind of intimacy. At this time, it was August summer, and the strict suit made people sweat when he looked at him. He took it out of his pocket. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with the blue and white handkerchief, noticed Lan Li's gaze, and waved his hand in a friendly manner.
"Every time you appear on the stage, you are always surprised. This time it's a truck, I don't know what the next time?" The chubby man said with a smile, and walked over slowly.
Lan Li chuckled lightly, "White horse, maybe."
What White Horse alluded to was naturally Prince Charming. Nathan couldn't help but laugh out loud with such humor, but he immediately realized his rudeness-he and Lan Li are not friends.
Sure enough, the man turned his attention and asked, "This is..."
"Nathan, Andy." Lanly started the introduction, "Andy, Nathan."
Standing in front of him was Andy Rogers, just like the last time. He was waiting at the door of Lanly’s apartment again, but today’s situation is obviously a bit special. I don’t know how long Andy has been waiting here. Obviously, he Also investigated Blue Li’s flight information. This makes Lan Li really uncomfortable. He thinks his personal information is safe, but now, how many people can investigate his information?
"Are you waiting for me here?" Lan Li took the initiative to raise the doubts in his heart.
As if aware of Lanly’s vigilance, Andy explained with a smile, “I’ve been in New York for two weeks. I just saw a picture of you and the flight attendant on Facebook. Then I knew that you’re back in New York. So, I Thinking of coming over to try your luck, maybe you can talk to you before you plunge into jet lag."
Confident and yet gentle, all the sharpness is hidden in the depths of the words. As a top agent, Andy and Fisher have completely different styles. Of course, it is also possible that Lanly's own preconceived notions have yet to unearth the other side of Andy.
"Len Li, then I'll leave first." Taking advantage of the gap in the conversation, Nathan said politely, "Thank you so much today." Lan Li smiled and nodded, then Nathan turned and turned to what Lan Li was pointing at. The subway stepped slowly, but his shoulders couldn't be lifted heavily.
After two steps, Nathan raised his head blankly and looked around, sighing long. He had only done this job for less than two weeks, and Fisher fired him. Although he had heard about it before joining the job, Fisher is now becoming more and more critical, and the speed of changing assistants is even faster than that of bed/partner. His last tenure only lasted for half a month; but he did not expect that he The persistence time is even shorter than that of the predecessor.
Lanly noticed Nathan’s dazedness. Although the relationship with Fisher today was not very pleasant, Nathan was irritated. It is not necessarily because of him that Nathan lost his job, but at least part of it, "If you are not sure If you do, you can go back to the hotel to get your luggage, and then find a hotel to stay in first, or you can fly back to Los Angeles directly."
Nathan heard the voice behind him, and then he reacted, turning around and showing a jerky smile at Lanly, "This is a good idea." After two steps out, he turned around again and shouted, "Thank you. , Fisher is indeed a bastard."
Lan Li couldn't help but laughed, and when he retracted his gaze, he saw Andy's puzzled eyes, "Fisher Morgan just came over to find me, that's his assistant."
After a few simple explanations, Andy understood. However, Andy did not inquire about the conversation between Renly and Fisher, but changed the subject, "I heard that you just came back from Europe, how is it, what is your gain this time?"
"It took eight days to shoot a small-cost independent film. The Spanish crew." Lan Li thought about it carefully and came to the conclusion, "The harvest is far greater than imagined."
Andy laughed, and his small eyes were simply narrowed. "It seems that the challenge of acting this time makes you very satisfied. It should be a difficult role. I'm already a little curious."
"The director has signed up for the Toronto Film Festival and is now in the review stage. Whether he can be shortlisted or not is still waiting for notification." Lan Li is very happy to share the situation of "buried alive", not only his first work on the big screen. Simple, it is the first time that he has truly stepped out of his comfort zone and challenged new possibilities.
"Toronto? Then there will be news this weekend at the latest, and the shortlist will be announced next week." The awards season is approaching, and Andy is naturally very precious, "The Venice list was just announced last weekend. It seems that you missed it. It’s time for Venice to sign up."
To participate in the film festival, you must register in advance, then submit the film, and the organizing committee will review it. Unless it is a long-established director like Martin Scorsese, the film festival will give the green light, otherwise you missed the registration and you missed it.
Lan Li nodded affirmatively, and said grimly, "If it's Venice, I won't be back, I will go straight to Italy and stay here. Tuscany has been a beautiful sight this time around."
"I missed Venice, and Amy. Believe me, you don't want to miss Amy." Andy said with a smile. Although he has long been optimistic about Lanly's future and believes in Lanly's potential, the Emmy nomination is really a surprise.
This year, the competition between the Emmy miniseries and the TV and film departments is extremely fierce. It can be said that the bayonet has become popular. The "Pacific War" continued the situation of the "Brother Company", which has advantages in technology and overall, but the competition in the acting department is weak. . Now, Lan Li is able to win the nomination on behalf of the crew, not only him, but all industry insiders including hbo have felt a huge surprise.
Lan Li also smiled, "Of course, I don't want to miss it. Who knows, if I missed this time, when will I have to wait for the next time."
"In my opinion, the next time I do need to wait for a while." Andy's answer was a bit unexpected, but then he changed the topic, and he continued, "Because I want to invite you to appear in a TV series next time, it may be more difficult. . The big screen is your sky."
Such an interpretation is cunning and clever, and Lan Li can't help but smile.
"Well, can we find a place to sit down?" Andy looked back and forth, then looked at the suitcase in Lan Li's hand, "I know you need to adjust the jet lag now, and the long-distance flight is very tired; I am now I am also sweating constantly, and I need to find a place with air conditioning to sit down to prevent myself from becoming more embarrassed."
Andy obviously has something in the words, how could Lan Li not be able to hear it, "I thought you were in a hurry today, and this conversation in ten minutes would be over." This was the case twice before.
"Haha, that's not okay. Today is different." Andy took out his handkerchief again and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "For the sake of my potential superstar in the next 20 years, I can't deal with it carelessly." Unexpectedly, yet again. Naturally, Andy smiled happily and looked at Lan Li seriously, "I hope to get your brokerage contract, become your agent in Hollywood, and plan your next actor career. I don’t know you. Are you interested?"
This is Andy's third time to visit, step by step, not rushing, but always sincere, calm and confident.
"Superstar? This is not a height that anyone can reach." Lan Li shook his head with a chuckle ~lightnovelpub.net~ It seemed that he heard a joke.
Andy didn’t panic, nodded to express affirmation, “It’s true. In fact, it’s too difficult to be a superstar in Hollywood, maybe only one out of 10,000 people can come up with outstanding strength, suitable works, The right role, the wonderful timing, and a little bit of luck are indispensable." Andy admitted frankly, "However, in my opinion, you have the conditions to achieve everything, and I also have the conditions to achieve everything. , After the cooperation, let us see our luck."
This explanation is really ingenious.
Lan Li laughed happily. Looking at Andy’s old fox smile, Lan Li originally had some questions that he wanted to ask, but after thinking about it, he looked at the sincerity of the cottage, had a proper conversation, and discussed in depth... Andy showed all his requirements for the agent. What's more, the innovative artist agency behind Andy is still the industry leader.
So, "Why not? Let's see how things will develop." It was finalized, and Renly's agent was finally finalized, and Andy Rogers succeeded in standing out and won the company's brokerage contract.
Andy nodded lightly, as if he wasn't surprised by the result. He didn't have much emotion. He just pointed to the apartment building behind him calmly, "After we sign the cooperation agreement, the first thing is Let you move out of this dangerous building." Lan Li directly burst into laughter.
"At that moment, my first thought was actually to chop off his neck. This **** **** finally nodded. But at the same time, I also knew that I had made an important decision to change the trajectory of my career. The beating heart leaked my excitement at the time.” Years later, Andy said in an exclusive interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
