The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)

Chapter 155: Contract love

Looking at Ryan's awkward appearance, Lan Li stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "At four o'clock in the afternoon, don’t remember the time wrong. If I don’t see you on the red carpet, I will definitely Tell the reporter about you and Michelle. "WwΩW. LieWen. Cc"

"Buried alive" is not a high-profile movie. Although Toronto is the first stop of the film's global screenings, they did not receive the highest treatment. The highlight of the show at 8 o'clock every night is completely wishful thinking. The screening is scheduled for four in the afternoon. The red carpet starts at half past four o'clock. After the broadcast is over, the reporters will rush to the main venue to participate in the North American screening of "The Thief in the City" tonight.

Ryan didn't hesitate to give Lan Li a middle finger-he and Michelle were dating and gritted his teeth and said, "You'd better not remember the time wrong, otherwise you can't blame me."

After sending Ryan away, Lan Li walked to the small refrigerator in the room and said all morning. Now his throat is too dry, "Is the journey going well?"

"Successfully, it's just Toronto." Andy tried to find a place in the sand, looking left and right, and finally picked up the bathrobe, and found a vacancy. "Your life in Toronto is really It’s wonderful. In just four days, I feel I can’t keep up."

"What?" Lan Li took a bottle to sleep and poured a gulp into his throat. "Ah, you mean Ryan? The friends I made accidentally are a very long story. I thought he was one. Rigid and stiff guy, but only after talking, it turns out that Canadians are much more interesting than imagined."

"Of course, Ryan is part of it, but it's not the most important." Andy recalled the call just now. The amount of information was a bit large. He sorted it out a bit, "Are you sure there is nothing else?"

Lan Li sat down on the sand next to him, and the action of drinking water paused, revealing a puzzled look. After thinking about it, he still didn't have any concept, "I have been watching movies for the past few days." Apart from this, nothing happens.

Andy looked carefully at Lan Li's expression, and could not help but reminded, "Hint: Natalie Portman."

Lan Li was stunned for a moment, first showed a look of sudden realization, but then turned into confusion, "I had a relationship with her, but that's it, she doesn't even know my name."

"Really just like this?" Andy had a meaningful smile on his face, obviously not believing Lanly's rhetoric.

Lan Li thought about it for a while, but still didn't have any thoughts, "Did she say anything?"

When he left, he smashed Natalie, but judging from the news of the past three days, it did not work. It may even be that the reporter did not hear the deep meaning of his words at all-one of the reporters For the past three days, he has been following his itinerary. If he hadn't known that the other party was a reporter, he would almost think he would meet a stalker. Therefore, Lan Li still can't think of any reason, there is any connection between Natalie and him.

"She did say something, but what I'm more curious about is what you said to her." Andy smiled sincerely this time, but didn't continue to sell it, but revealed the answer, "Her The agent called me and said Natalie hoped to date you."

Francis Parker is Natalie Portman's agent.

Lan Li was indifferent to such a breaking news, as if he was just talking about a stranger. This disappointed Andy, and he could only continue to explain, "Accurately speaking, it is a contractual relationship." Lan Li did not wait for Lan Li to ask questions. , He explained it.

"That is to say, in front of the media that you are dating, and then we will arrange some reporters to take photos of your date, make a schedule, when to hold hands, when to kiss, when to take her home, when to stay overnight, Then when do you break up. Although you don’t need to cooperate with the performance when the reporter can’t see after the door is closed, you can do what you want to do during the night, and you don’t need a real relationship; but in public It's better to be able to create some sparks in the occasion. Now reporters are not easy to fool around."

Lan Li frowned slightly, "You mean, she invited me to have a fake relationship with her, but she wanted to deceive reporters and the public with a fake?"

"Yes." Andy nodded and affirmed, "From September to March next year. This is a preliminary plan. I believe that with the acting skills of the two of you, there should be no problem. However, if you do a fake show, If you do, it’s best to notify me in advance so that I won’t be in a hurry."

So, life depends entirely on acting, does that mean?

"Why me?" Lan Li was not surprised, but chuckled lightly.

Andy looked at the deep meaning and playfulness of Lan Li’s smile, and suddenly realized that Lan Li seemed to know something, "Yes, I am also curious, why are you?" When Francis called, he was the one who surprised the most. people.

Generally speaking, in order to cooperate with commercial film promotion, the possibility of the male and female protagonists signing a contract for love is relatively high. From before the filming starts to the end of the promotion period, the camp is arranged for the two people to gradually "elevate their feelings", and then let the media and audience Participation has the best direct publicity effect.

However, now is the Internet age. The lives of celebrities are really under the magnifying glass. Therefore, the risk of contracting in love is too high, and it is easy to show their feet. Film companies and public relations companies are unwilling to operate unless the heroes and heroines really rubbish. Sparks, or the hot spots of movie publicity have been poor to a certain extent, this is the alternative.

But now, Natalie and Renly, two people who did not have any intersection, were suddenly brought together, and Renly was still a newcomer. In other words, in this contractual love, Lan Li is the "beneficial" party, and it is easy to be quickly understood by the audience, and the popularity and recognition will rise linearly. Everything reveals weirdness.

But Andy doesn't care much about this kind of popularity. Because Lan Li is a typical powerful actor at this stage, strength is the best way for the audience to get to know him, not such lace news-this kind of scandal of high women and low men can easily position the man on the vase.

Andy is even more curious about the reason why Francis made such a proposal-Francis is naturally unwilling to disclose more information, only to ask Andy if he has any intentions, and then sell it, saying that they can "bury alive" after the end of the screening today. In-depth conversation.

"This is not a question that I can answer." Lanly felt a little absurd, and couldn't help but chuckle. "Natalie is now dating Benjamin Mipade."

"Benjamin Mipade?" Andy repeated the name, his brain worked several times, and said in surprise, "The choreography of'Black Swan'?"

"Yes." Lan Li nodded, and then simply recounted the encounter that day.

However, Lan Li did not mention the small conflict between the two people. On the one hand, there is absolutely no need to care about it, and on the other hand, there is no direct connection. But Andy was reluctant to let it go easily. He asked every detail in detail until the first moment when the two people met, and then fell into contemplation.

"Give me some time." After thinking about it, Andy took out his mobile phone, plugged in the charger, and then started making calls.

Lan Li saw that there was nothing of his own business here, so he was busy with his own affairs, completely indifferent.

During this call, Andy lasted more than 90 minutes. The last call was to Francis. The two discussed for nearly forty minutes. In the end, they still could not reach a consensus, but they finally understood the matter. The ins and outs of-Francis still didn't fully tell the truth, but it was enough for Andy.

Standing up, looking around for Lan Li's figure, finally found the target on the balcony. Lan Li actually sat on the balcony reading a book, and his self-satisfied appearance made Andy laugh. "Even if you are not interested in Natalie Portman, you should at least prepare for the start of the afternoon screening. This is yours. The first movie, and the first time in Toronto, isn't it?"

Lan Li shrugged, "The first time will never be counted. Instead of celebrating each'first time', it is better to treat each future time as the first time and truly enjoy it." He raised his head and said yes. Andy showed a smile, "What's more, there is no way to prepare for the screening, right? Relaxing is the best preparation."

"I can't refute this." Andy sat down opposite Lanly. Although Andy was not at the scene and could not understand the true and accurate situation, it can be inferred. Obviously, Natalie is facing the current dilemma. The main reason is that Lan Li dug a big hole, but Lan Li is completely in front of her. Calm and calm, obviously not an annoying guy, which makes Andy feel comfortable.

"The relationship between Natalie and Benjamin cannot be discovered~lightnovelpub.net~ This may affect the Oscar public relations after the'Black Swan'. Therefore, they need a shield. From the current situation, you are the most suitable The candidate. Because, only three days ago, you had a'scandal', didn't you?" Andy briefly summarized the situation, always with a relaxed smile on his face, "For them, it can shift the focus of the media. ; And for us..."

Andy paused slightly, but unfortunately, he still failed to get Lan Li the bait, so he could only continue to say, "You can gain enough exposure, which is not only good for'buried alive', but also good for your popularity. . So, this is a win-win situation. Of course, now they need our help, we can discuss the conditions, maybe we can get a good source of film for you, this is Toronto, it is a good time. If you If you nod your head, this afternoon's screening can be the first starting point."

"Are you asking for my opinion?" Lan Li noticed Andy's pause. "I thought these decisions were made by the agent."

"Then if I nodded and agreed, would you be willing to cooperate?" Andy did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

Lan Li raised his eyebrows slightly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was joking, "I don't think so."
