The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 122: First red carpet
"Lan Li, are you listening?" The Lan Li in front of him was bathed in the brilliant orange sunlight outside the window. He was a little lost, and Andy had to temporarily stop his own words and asked aloud. E┡Ω novel Ww "W. Ω1XIAOSHUO. COM
Lan Li lowered his eyes and twitched the corners of his mouth with a chuckle, "Yes, I'm listening. You said, don't give too much hope tonight, just go to a party in a relaxed mood, and then enjoy tonight." Lan Li Turning his head and looking at Andy, he cast a look of confirmation.
Andy nodded and gave an affirmative answer, "What are you looking at? So ecstatic?"
"Sunshine. The sunset in Los Angeles has a special orange color, which is very different from New York." Lan Li once again cast his eyes out of the window. The afternoon sun burned lazily on the edge of the sky, bright and warm orange will be all day long. The sky was dyed with wonderful colors, and at this moment, the night of New York had already enveloped the earth strictly, and in my mind, I could imagine the appearance of the dark blue night slowly falling.
The three-hour time difference has made the two cities on both sides of the strait appear completely different. This is also the reason why every award ceremony held in the United States live broadcast is particularly strange.
Generally speaking, the red carpet starts at 8 o’clock in the evening on the East Bank, or even earlier. After four hours of the awards ceremony, it’s already past midnight. This is also how Oscars are denounced every year for being too long. The important reason for this; then, in the case of the West Bank, the award ceremony has already kicked off around 5 pm, and after the event is over, the night of all the stars has just begun-celebrations and carnival parties are in full swing under the cover of night To unfold.
Tonight, the 62nd Emmy Awards kicked off at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. Renly and Andy arrived in the City of Angels by plane the day before yesterday and made a special trip to attend an awards ceremony for Renly's actor career.
"Don't you think this is weird? When New York starts to have dinner, the awards ceremony will begin here in Los Angeles." Lan Li's smile was slightly outlined, "I'm already worried now, and the awards ceremony is halfway through. , I’m hungry, what should I do?” As usual, the award ceremony usually ends around nine o'clock-Los Angeles time, for most people, dinner is over.
Andy couldn't help but smile, sometimes Lan Li behaved mature and old-fashioned and experienced vicissitudes; but sometimes Lan Li looked like a fledgling rookie, always maintaining a strong curiosity and vitality. Just when Andy thought he knew more about Lan Li, new surprises would immediately appear.
"After you enter the venue for a while, you will see a buffet table in the backstage. Although it is just some desserts, breads, salads, etc., as long as you feel unwell, you can choose some meals to cushion your stomach. "Andy explained kindly, "The most correct choice is to choose a piece of dark chocolate before entering the arena. You can replenish a little energy at any time without being too embarrassed."
"Aha." Lan Li gently closed his jaw, expressing his understanding, "I thought everyone used whiskey or brandy to satisfy their hunger." That's how the noble banquet was.
Andy thought it was a joke, so he laughed. Looking at the setting sun gently falling on Lan Li's shoulders, his facial features were blurred in the halo, and only a line of chin and shoulders could be seen vaguely. The shirt and the decent suit sculpted that little by little. The elegance that has been precipitated over time, although he knows very little about suits and fashion, he has to admit that this suit seems to be tailor-made for Lan Li, and Andy can't help but recall his visit to Melvin last week- The situation in Brades.
Compared to Melvin, who fled to the second floor to hide, Renly maintained his gentleman’s etiquette until the last moment. The irony was once again stabbed fiercely—though Melvin could no longer see it. , But the face of the golden girl who sent the guests off was full of embarrassment and panic that could not be concealed, and Andy could easily portray Melvin's ashamed look, which really made people laugh.
That day, instead of looking for a second stylist, they went back to Fifth Avenue and bought a suit in Burberry's flagship store, and Lan Li made the selection himself.
"You know suits well?" Andy asked curiously.
Lan Li smiled and said, "It's just basic information." This is the truth. Hand-made tailored suits are all made by professional tailors. He is only responsible for wearing them, far from knowing or professional.
Andy thinks this is a very interesting thing. Usually, Lan Li wears mostly casual and casual, and even some street styles; but after changing the suit, Lan Li’s temperament and demeanor have changed, as if this is the real Lan Li, all Everything is so natural.
It can be seen that there are obviously more things in Lan Li's body that are worth digging slowly. Perhaps, tonight is a good platform-the rookie boarded the Emmy Awards such a grand awards ceremony, really bathed in the spotlight, and became the focus of the reporter’s lens. This time it mirrored the "Pacific War". The specifications of the style are worlds apart, and I don’t know how Lanli’s performance will be.
Andy couldn't help but look forward to it.
You can see the Staples Center a few blocks away, and Andy knows that it’s not far from the Nokia Theatre. “Don’t be too nervous.” He said, “Now is the top half of the red carpet. There won’t be any big names coming to the scene, and the lineup of the TV series tonight is very large, and the focus will not be on one person for too long, so it’s better to relax as much as possible."
Because of the huge number of workers in the TV drama industry, the Emmy Awards is the largest among the four awards ceremonies in terms of number of participants. This is why they chose the Nokia Theatre to host the awards ceremony—it can accommodate six thousand five hundred people. The number of seats is twice that of the Kodak Theater.
Coupled with the huge base of supporting roles in TV series, there are many actors who can be named, but not more. Therefore, the entire red carpet will be very busy.
"Is there a particular time to arrive on the red carpet?" Lan Li was a little curious. In the last screening of "Pacific War", he didn't have an agent yet, so he just chose a time to attend; but now it seems that the red carpet time is not that simple. Could it be that they also have a choice in the time they play today?
Andy chuckled lightly, seeming to be entertained by this question. "Of course there is some attention. The real big names will basically be there later in the second half, because the audience ratings will reach a peak at that time, and they will not fall. It’s time for trash at the tail. Moreover, at such an awards ceremony, there are too many big names, and no one wants to crash and share their focus. Therefore, the agents will ventilate each other, and the organizers will communicate with each other as much as possible. Time spread out."
Lan Li thought for a while and came up with a conjecture, "Is that someone will deliberately arrange to appear at the same time, just to stop each other?"
Andy didn't laugh, he didn't affirm, but he didn't deny, but pointed to the front, "We're here."
Turn your head, and then you can see a building decorated with glass walls on the front. The exterior style does not seem to have much distinctiveness. It continues the simple and clean lines of Northern Europe. If you drive by, you will hardly notice it. The blue "Nokia" sign on the lake above highlights the origin of this building's style.
At this time, the entrance of the theater was brightly lit, and the light yellow lights and the orange sunset complemented each other. The whole world was so bright that the boiling sea of people was shrouded in a shadow, spreading mightily. You can't see the end, nor can you see the number, even if it is thousands, it is no exaggeration.
The square in front of the gate was completely full, and the turbulent crowd stretched all the way to the highway. At this time, the main street was also blocked and the bustling crowd continued to cheer and shout in the direction covered by the lights. Screaming and screaming, the turbulent wave ebbs and flows under the burning sunset, as if the flames all over the sky are ignited from here, the magnificent heat wave is rushing, and the heat of summer is awakened again, Even the air started to boil.
The roar penetrated the car window glass and hit the eardrum heavily. The blood couldn't help but began to slowly add up. Every beat of the heart was so powerful, the spray of adrenaline made the throat a little dry.
Lan Li had to adjust his breathing, which was obviously different this time. If the last "Pacific War" screening was more ignorant and at a loss, with a kind of curiosity and exploration of Alice in Wonderland; then this time you can really feel the heat and boiling of Vanity Fair, that kind of tension Feeling uncontrollable spontaneously arises, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com blood seems to have turned into gasoline, and it only needs a little spark to ignite.
Until this moment, the sense of reality hit Lan Li's chest fiercely: here is the Emmy Awards, he is about to attend the Emmy Awards ceremony as a nominee. This idea was suddenly magnified countless times. From the time Fisher Morgan told the news to the present, the sense of reality that has never appeared, finally invaded sharply and fiercely.
Tonight, he is about to compete with Al Pacino, Jeff Bridges, Ian McLean and others.
This is really a surprise, isn't it?
The smile at the corner of his mouth could not help but lifted up slightly and straightened his waist. He was ready to walk into this hot spotlight.
"Len Li, if you don't understand anything, you can ask Rose-Byrne. She is also my actor and will attend the awards ceremony tonight." Andy said loudly in Lan Li's ear. After giving the final explanation, he patted Lan Li on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up, "Man, go and conquer Hollywood!"
A smile bloomed at the corner of Lan Li's mouth. Without any hesitation, he directly opened the door of the car.
