The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 41: Secretly trading
Lan Li looked at the girl in front of her, her pupils contracted slightly, then she took out her mobile phone, pointed at the girl’s figure and pressed the shutter button with a click.
The girl obviously didn't expect Lan Li's behavior, which disrupted all her plans, her eyes widened, "Hey, are you crazy?" She rushed towards Lan Li with strides. The posture like a wolf and a tiger actually had a shocking aura, but Lan Li was not worried at all. He raised his right hand high, and his height advantage immediately made him invincible.
The girl was only as tall as Lan Li’s chest. Looking at the unreachable distance, she wisely chose to give up. She stopped in front of Lan Li, rolled her eyes and looked speechless, "So, This is how you welcome me? How long have we not seen each other... Christmas the year before?"
"I should ask you this sentence." Lan Li was unmoved. "From your tone of voice just now, obviously you know that I will appear today, but you didn't call me in advance? "
This rhetorical question made the girl stunned, and waved her hand helplessly, "You don't need to be smart in front of me."
Lan Li shrugged, he didn't buy it at all. The guy in front of him is not a little white flower who is bullied, "I just leave evidence for emergencies."
"Hey!" The girl complained and raised her voice, but she glanced at Lan Li, and the rebuttal was not spoken after all, "Otherwise, you delete the one just now, I will design the lighting and angle, and take another one. I don’t trust your photography skills, it’s just an entry level."
Looking at the girl’s disgusting face, Lan Li didn’t argue. In fact, she was indeed his photographer Fu, "There is no such need. Anyway, anyone who might see this photo at that time, no one knows how to appreciate you. Photography technology."
The girl curled her lips and looked noncommittal. She knew that Lan Li was telling the truth.
"Let's talk about it, how did you appear here, and you still walked out of the media room, which means that today's interview team includes you." It was just a face-to-face and clues put together, Lan Li guessed To the truth, "But in fact, shouldn't you be working for the United Nations in Sudan now? At least George and Elizabeth believe this."
Standing in front of Lan Li is his older sister, his second sister, Edith-Hall. She was born in fine arts and has outstanding talents, but when she grew up, she gave up fine arts and became interested in photography and became a professional photographer.
To a certain extent, photography is a product of fine art relying on modern technology; in addition, she is a woman. In the traditional concept of aristocratic families, women can choose their own hobbies and choose a right husband in the future. enough. Just like Elizabeth has her own gallery, although the British traditional aristocracy still has many constraints on women, it has made considerable progress.
The smartest thing about Edith is that she chose the United Nations as a partner, as an official photographer, to complete shootings all over the world for charity. Such behavior is highly praised even among the British aristocracy. Therefore, the family did not object to Edith's choice too much.
Last month, Sudan ended its seven-year civil war. Since then, the Republic of Sudan has been formally established. The United Nations Peace Force is still in Sudan to deal with follow-up matters. It stands to reason that Edith should be in Sudan now, not Los Angeles.
Edith rolled her eyes and said, "God, I knew I shouldn't take this job." In fact, after she took over the job, she discovered that the male protagonist of the "Pacific War" was actually Lan Li. At that time It is too late to refuse.
But directly disarming and surrendering is not Edith’s style. “If the family knows that you are now a TV actor, not a movie actor, not a drama actor, but a cheap soap opera actor, do you think they will come and treat you personally? Catch it back?" She is fighting for her own bargaining chip——
Lan Li, this cunning guy, the first reaction to the meeting was to take a picture. Obviously, he had foreseen the current situation and held the handle in his hand early. Edith couldn't help but gritted her teeth secretly. Everyone thought Lan Li was a well-behaved gentleman. Only she could see through the true face of this lovely brother in the family and wiped her bitter tears.
"The crocodile tears don't work." Not to mention that Renly was born again. It is not so foolish. If his brother and sister have been together for twenty years, how could he be fooled by Edith's tricks? "George and Elizabeth have cut off all my sources of income. They refused to call me six months ago. So..." Lan Li shrugged, meaning: Your threats are useless.
Edith opened her mouth and was about to say something more, but Lanly was a step ahead, "Arthur knew about the'Pacific War', and he wrote an email specifically to mock me." TV drama actor, In the eyes of many nobles, it cannot even be called an "actor".
"Damn Arthur." Edith cursed, and the fellow Arthur would only use his lips, and he was not reliable at all in actual actions.
Edith took a cigarette out of her pocket, lit one quickly, held it to her lips, and scratched her head in annoyance. Lan Li was not in a hurry, and stood beside him without making a sound. Then he took a step to the side and moved away. Edith noticed this little movement and her eyes rounded, "Don't tell me, you tried Let the hotel camera capture me, and hope they will drive me out, right?"
Lan Li's face was innocent, "Edith, have you been in Africa for a long time, do you have delusions of persecution?" Well, the scheme was seen through, really disappointing.
Edith squinted at Lan Li, then turned around and walked quickly towards the balcony at the end of the corridor. She knew that Lan Li must have followed without turning her head. Sure enough, I turned around on the balcony and saw Lan Li standing under the cream light. Edith put her hands on the railing, "Speak, what do you want?"
If Lan Li tells her family, it is estimated that she will suffer in the next period of time; and considering that the family has ignored Lan Li for more than half a year, who knows whether they will spread their grievances on her. Edith knew that she had no room for rebuttal.
"Owes me a favor." Lan Li didn't jump into the trap in a hurry, but calmly said, "You will be in charge of taking pictures for a while? You'd better not treat me as a guinea pig." No extra words, threatening The tone couldn't be clearer.
Edith spit out a puff of cigarette speechlessly, "You must know that everyone else is lining up for me to take pictures. This time, Vanity Fair communicated with me for two months before and after in order to invite me to take pictures."
Lan Li suddenly realized that he clicked his chin, "So, this is not the first time you have taken photos of people for a magazine. Does it mean that you have never been to Sudan? Well... I should check the past few months. I took a photo of his famous magazine." Lan Li looked at Edith seriously, "Is it a fashion magazine?"
Edith bit the cigarette holder fiercely, this time she was misunderstood and took the lead, but still stumbled in front of Lan Li. "Isn’t it when I used you as a test subject in junior high school, I studied it a bit, but it’s a trivial thing. I remembered it for so long." Edith murmured, but Lan Li couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows—let him lie down. On a bench, only relying on the waist to perform the flexible posture of landing from high altitude, one shot is two hours, is this a trivial matter? Or is it a small thing to let him stand in the fountain in the shape of a Popeye in the cold winter, tossing for an entire afternoon?
Seeing the gleaming light under Lan Li's eyes, Edith immediately closed it when she saw him, "Deal!" Originally thought, during the photo shoot today, let Lan Li challenge the difficult ones. Yesterday she imagined a few different sets at home. The action made me laugh so happy that I almost laughed out loud, but now it's all gone!
Lan Li nodded in agreement, and Edith took a hard smoke to express her dissatisfaction. However, there was no further argument. Although Lan Li was full of bad water, she absolutely did what she said, so she didn't have to worry about it. "Do you really intend to continue on the road of actors? You are a smart person and you should know how unreliable this road is."
"Then what do you suggest?" Lan Li said half-jokingly.
Edith thought about it seriously. She and Lan Li are the same kind of people, rebellious at heart, and have been working hard to break free from the shackles and oppression of the traditional British aristocracy.
In fact, she admired Lan Li very much. Starting from choosing a major at Cambridge University, to taking a leave of absence to go to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and then preparing enough funds, she ran to New York~lightnovelpub.net~ The whole process was step by step, without turning back, and resisting. The tremendous pressure from the family really opened up his career as an actor. Deep down, she hopes that Lan Li can succeed, so maybe she can really get rid of the shackles brought by the "female" hat.
"Become a better actor." Edith replied, which made Lan Li smile. "This time, I heard the meaning of the "Vanity Fair" editor. You should be the absolute core protagonist, and the focus should be on you. On the body. Spielberg also seems to look at you differently, let’s say, what have you done?" Edith squeezed out the cigarette, and walked back to the room side by side with Renly, "Spielberg didn’t have anything to do with men. Interest, then how did you buy him? You are an unknown rookie actor. Without unspoken rules, this doesn't make sense!"
Lan Li deliberately ignored Edith’s serious nonsense-if he had taken it seriously, he would have been reborn. "Can't you think of other reasons?"
"Can't think of it." Edith's answer was justified.
Lan Li glanced at Edith speechlessly, "Then you can ask it yourself, the editor or Steven."
"They will definitely tell me that it is because of your strength. Hehe, fools will believe it." After Edith finished speaking, she clapped her hands and laughed, apparently secretly revenge for the forced trade just now.
Lan Li shrugged lightly, "As far as I know, someone is an idiot." After speaking, Lan Li opened the door of the room, picked up his suitcase, and walked in. Edith fell behind. Biting his lower lip with a gloomy expression, "Len Li-Hall!" But it was the wooden door that slowly closed to greet her.
babble, babble, the swaying sound really makes people smoke!
