The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 1907: Blurred focus
Paul Walker was a little nervous. Although he knew everything in front of him was a familiar routine, he made his appearance again after half a year away from the spotlight, especially after the escape accident at the beginning of the year, facing the media and the public again. That kind of mixed psychology is really hard to explain in a word.
Taking a deep breath, Paul left the carriage, standing with his feet on the red carpet, and the noise was mixed in a light, and the dull air that had stagnated for the entire afternoon almost solidified, making people feel like a billowing heat wave. Out of breath, Paul had the urge to turn around and run away.
Then Paul saw Renly.
Although I saw Lan Li's dress before I set off, I saw Lan Li again standing on the red carpet in a serious and unruly manner. The sense of absurdity became more vivid, and the smile on the corners of his mouth rose as he couldn't bear it. Up. It was just such a pause, and the car with the door closed drove away.
"Huh?" Paul turned around and was about to greet the car, trying to stop it. He hadn't made a decision yet, whether to stay or run, why was he suddenly cut off?
Paul said he was stunned. Is it too late to call it back now?
Slowly, Paul turned around and cast a confused gaze at Lan Li, but then he saw the faintly shining light at the corner of Lan Li’s mouth—could it be that Lan Li was behind the scenes. ? This is very, very possible. Paul shook his head helplessly and amusingly. His smile couldn't help but lifted up. Finally, he looked back again at the car that was gradually invisible. Paul still moved towards Lanly's position. Take a step forward.
After a slow shot, the reporters at the audience finally realized that the heavyweights had appeared on the stage——
Although in terms of popularity and status, Paul is far from being able to compare with Lan Li; but in the last half a year, there was an accident and then withdrew from the "Speed and Excitement/Emotion" series. All of this made Paul's discussion value soar. Can be called the hottest person in recent times.
Reporters want to contain too many questions to interview Paul. Is it possible to ask heartily and heartily today?
Actions are faster than thoughts-the major reporters have already practiced a stunt: No matter what, press the shutter first, and think about other things later, so the silver flashes are pouring down like a waterfall in heaven, screaming. The sound instantly flooded the entire Chinese/National Theater, vividly interpreting what is called "blindness enough" light, and all the audience was briefly plunged into snow blindness.
Paul had never faced such a scene before, even the premiere of the "Speed and Excitement/Emotion" series could not be compared at all. The momentum of the stormy sea almost made Paul a little unsteady, and every cell in his body was sharp. Calling "back", the scene was really horrifying.
After a short pause, Paul needs to get used to the sting of his eyes. In just half a year, he has almost forgotten the power of the premiere flash, and today's Silver Waterfall is more ferocious than any premiere in his memory. All the silver halos poured into his pupils unreasonably. So much so that now the entire field of vision has become black, and there are only countless silver light spots that flicker in the invisible black.
Immediately afterwards, Paul heard Lanly's gloating voice ringing in his ears, "I thought you were ready."
Although he did not see Lan Li’s expression, Paul could imagine the smile at the corner of Lan Li’s mouth from his voice, which made him spread his hands silently, "Should you not come and help?" Then, Paul could feel it. When Lanli came to his side, the sense of space brought by the tall body squeezing the air calmed Paul's irritated mood a little, "I also thought I was ready, but who knows that the reporters at the scene today Become crazy?"
It is rare for Paul to spit out at first sight, and then he added, "Why did I never know that they are so interested in me?" It was not a complaint, but a fact. It was in the premiere of "Speed and Excitement/Emotion" before. On the previous page, the reporters' guns and guns were always aimed at Van Diesel, and even Michel Rodriguez, but it would not be Paul Walker.
Because Paul’s real wife is too low-key, he doesn’t have any hot spots at all, and it’s not even an exaggeration to describe it as “boring”. Whether it’s interviews or conversations, Paul, as a “good boy”, cannot attract reporters Enthusiasm, either knows how to hype or has distinctive characteristics, is good at talking or taciturn, this is a magic weapon to wake up reporters' attention, otherwise, reporters are indeed lacking in interest, and they don't even bother to shift their attention.
"You know, if they don't show any concern, netizens may curse them for being cold-blooded." Lan Li teased briskly.
It was originally a sad and sensitive topic-it was not a recommended "hype" method that attracted attention because of a near-death accident; however, Lan Li used this perspective to interpret it, with a mockery of entertainment to death. , Paul immediately caught the joke and laughed happily.
"I think the reporters should be **** off by you." Paul said briskly, "I mean it."
"Well, in my opinion, the relationship between the actor and the reporter is the relationship between Tom and Jerry-cat and mouse. The only difference is, are you going to play a cat or a mouse?" Lan Li said meaningfully.
Paul couldn't help but froze slightly, then stood on the red carpet and began to think seriously.
His sight gradually returned to normal, and he finally got used to the flash offensive again. Then Paul followed Lan Li on the red carpet. Although Lan Li arrived early, in fact, the two talents are now officially appearing in China for the first time. On the high stage of the red carpet built at the entrance of the theater, the reporters in the audience snapped the shutter like they lost their minds, and the sound of clicking was like a storm that was sweeping through Hollywood.
But Paul was still immersed in his thoughts, just subconsciously following behind Lanly, stepping forward step by step, so that when the two stopped in the reporter interview area, they faced the reporters' rage. Instead, Paul became the one who asked the question, "If you can choose, would you like to be Tom or Jerry?"
This thoughtless question made the reporters collectively bewildered: What happened to Paul?
Lan Li, who was standing next to him, laughed happily, but Lan Li had no plans to relieve the reporters. Although the reporters all cast their sights on Lan Li for help, Lan Li still smiled. Standing idly by with his hands behind his back, he stepped back faintly and gave all the focus to Paul, as if Paul should be the protagonist today.
Paul also noticed the projection direction of the reporters' eyes, and couldn't help turning his head to look at Lan Li with helplessness. After arriving at the premiere today, is this the second or the third time? The feeling of helplessness is really lingering, but it adds a sense of absurdity, which completely relaxes Paul's tension.
"Paul, is there any meaning in this question? Are you suggesting that your relationship with Van Diesel is Tom and Jerry?"
The reporters naturally did not answer honestly, but instead asked back, and at the same time showed their association power again-can this all be associated with Diesel? Is this a hard-wired connection? Sure enough, the reporters' ability to read pictures and tell stories is admirable and worthy of the name.
Paul is not Renly, and he has no way to fight back. In fact, he is basically an honest person who asks what to answer and what to say, "No, no, Fan and I are friends. We have known each other for more than ten years. I don’t think we are one of them. It's the relationship between Jerry and Tom."
Good questions become boring in Paul's answer.
The reporters can only look at each other. Has the familiar Paul come back? "Then why did you ask that question?" The best way to interview Paul is to hit the ball straight, without rounding corners.
"Len Li just mentioned cats and mice to me." Paul glanced at Lan Li and seemed to be asking for Lan Li's advice. He found that Lan Li didn't care, so he said honestly, "He said that the actors and reporters The relationship seems to be so."
This……
The reporters at the scene blushed immediately, so who is Tom and who is Jerry? After the audience fell on Lan Li's body one after another, they returned one after another aggrieved. Such a question clearly made Lan Li ridicule himself, so they should not bump into it so stupidly.
As a result, all eyes were returned to Paul, about the physical recovery, about the "speed and passion", about the performance plan, about the accident experience... All the problems swept toward Paul like a storm. However, Paul also gave real answers conscientiously, but seeing the reporters became more and more excessive.
"Regarding the accident investigation, there is now evidence that it is all your fault. Is this true?"
"Someone accused you of speeding, which resulted in one death and one injury. How do you feel?"
"Did you choose to quit'Fast and Furious' because of PTSD?"
"After the accident, have you met Roger Rodas' family members? How do you communicate?"
"Do you think you killed Roger?"
One after another sharp questions rushed to his face~lightnovelpub.net~ Paul was gradually overwhelmed, and then he heard a throat clearing cough in his ear, interrupting Paul’s answer, and then all The eyes were drawn to the past, and I saw Lan Li's mouth still with a slight smile, "Why don't I know, now I need a lawyer's qualification certificate to become a reporter?"
The reporters stopped asking questions for a while.
"If you know that Paul is suffering from PTSD and raise these questions, what are you looking forward to answering? Regarding the ins and outs of the accident, I believe the official has already given the answer. Will the legal responsibility be pursued later? There will be official announcements. As for other questions, Paul has no obligation or responsibility to answer you. You should know how to stop.
An understatement, but with a strong banter and ridicule, he contemptuously blocked all the attacks from the reporters present.
So, what are the reporters going to do?
