The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)

Chapter 470: Wilderness Encounter

Looking at Roy in front of him, Lan Li couldn't actually recognize him.

Not only because his cheeks were severely tested by the sun, so that they were a little deformed, but also because his clothes broke the impression in Lan Li's mind.

In the previous few contacts, Roy wore a suit and shirt, but he was always a little sloppy, his clothes looked crumpled, his tie was crooked, and even food residues could be seen on the collar or hem. The raunchy image is further reflected in the cluttered desk.

Roy now wears quick-drying underwear, jackets and light walking shoes. The typical professional walking suit is far from office attire, but the real difference is not in this, but the whole set of clothes are neat and tidy, strictly in accordance with professional The way of dressing, meticulous, the clothes tucked into the waistband, the trousers are tightened, the neck is tied with sweat towels, and so on, completely without the mess before.

This, this is really surprising.

Roy seemed to read the confusion from Lan Li's eyes, and smiled, but the contrasting face looked a little funny, "If you want to survive in the wild, strictly abide by the rules of the manual, this is the first step. . Especially for novices." Roy's explanation made Lan Li couldn't help but smile, Roy shrugged invisibly, as if his strength still hadn't fully recovered. Shi also needs to be improved."

The corners of Lan Li's mouth rose up again, adding that, "At the same time, it is also to prevent annoying nagging."

Roy nodded seriously and admitted frankly, "This is the core reason."

Lan Li chuckled lightly, "Why did you appear here? I thought I had admitted the wrong person." After a brief chat, Lan Li raised the most obvious question.

Roy does not seem to be a fan of outdoor sports; what's more, as an agent of the Screen Actors Guild of America, he runs at high speed almost every day, not to mention holidays, even In daily life, overtime is also commonplace. For them, asking for leave is an extravagant hope.

Roy didn't answer right away, but peeled the chocolate, took two bites of the chocolate that had turned into a paste, and his rapid, turbulent breathing became a little smoother, and then he said, "It's nothing, it's just that I resigned."

Lan Li raised his eyebrows and asked unexpectedly, "I thought you like your job, you know, help as many new actors as possible."

Roy squinted at Lan Li, his eyes were clearly saying, "Are you kidding me", but Lan Li pursed the corner of his mouth innocently, met Roy's gaze, looked back, no words needed , The expression couldn't be more obvious, as if saying, "I'm serious." At least from the several contacts between the two people, Lan Li couldn't feel Roy's rejection.

Roy laughed blankly. "Accurately speaking, no one in the Screen Actors' Guild agent likes his job." He filled the whole piece of chocolate into his mouth and chewed slowly to replenish his body's energy. , By the way, explained, "In the morning, due to a little accident, my kettle overturned, and then my lunch was taken away by a badger."

A simple sentence explains why Roy is so embarrassed.

Lan Li didn't hold back for a moment, and the corners of his mouth rose. Roy also knows that this is ridiculous, but in the wilderness, everything is possible. He shrugged, expressed helplessness, and confirmed, "The agent of the actors' union is like a public lawyer appointed by the court. The salary is not high. , Hard work, no one cares, limited rights, just like charity. But the point is that no one wants to be charity in our lives."

Although Lan Li is only an actor and has limited knowledge of the agent's work, he knows what Roy said.

Professional agents like Andy rely on actors’ income to achieve profitability. Simply put, the higher the actors’ income, the higher their income. This is why all agents continue to strive for higher salaries for their actors. ; And public agents like Roy rely on the wages of the actors’ union for their livelihood. The actors’ income has nothing to do with them. Of course, the new actors don’t have much income.

Then why is anyone willing to act as a public broker?

The reason is simple. The first is career planning. In the future, I intend to engage in management work such as senior leaders of the actors' union, or to seek positions in production companies. The second is the establishment of contacts, relying on the big tree of the American actors' union. In the future, you can establish relationships with the six major film companies without any obstacles, and the role will be immeasurable when changing jobs in the future.

Public brokers like Roy have a very large turnover, and they change in and out frequently. It is not uncommon for a third-line actor to appear in a work, and it is not uncommon for three different public agents to handle the work when signing, filming, and closing.

Resignation is not uncommon.

"So what's your next plan?" Lan Li asked.

Except for a small number of public brokers who are committed to "charity" and are willing to operate this career as a lifelong career, most public brokers know that they are bound to resign one day. Therefore, before submitting your resignation, you will have a certain plan for your career.

Obviously, changing to a professional broker is the most suitable and easiest choice.

But unexpectedly, Roy shook his head, "I don’t know for now. This is why I chose to hike. I plan to temporarily put work aside, enjoy this holiday, and see the end of the road. Where and when are you ready to stop, and then think about future plans."

Lan Li was a little stunned. From these simple words, one could guess that resignation was an unexpected move. Roy had left the Screen Actors Guild before he had time to make plans for the next step. Behind this, what happened? The story is really intriguing.

However, that was Roy's personal business, and Lanly had no plans to spy.

"Which direction did you start from?" Lan Li did not continue to talk in depth, but changed the topic accordingly.

Roy was not surprised at the gentleman of Renly. In the previous few conversations, he was deeply impressed by the maturity and wisdom displayed by the teenager, "Peggy." Roy replied with the opportunity.

Immediately afterwards, the two people had a conversation about their trekking experiences in the past period of time, as if they were just two of the most ordinary hikers, accidentally sharing their experiences on the road occasionally, and then embarking on their own scheduled journeys again. On the road in the future, they may meet again, maybe not, but the fate of this encounter has become part of their journey.

Roy listened carefully to Lan Li’s story. Those plain, interesting, thrilling, and stimulating experiences can be seen from the active look between the eyebrows, Lan Li’s concentration and devotion—this is more than just a paragraph. Try it impulsively, but really enjoy it.

Because of the short fate, Lan Li left a deep impression on Roy. When he browses the news, he will pay more attention to the news of Lan Li. The turbulent controversies, the heated discussions, the doubts about the truth and the false, are like a thin veil, which isolates Lan Li from the public, and can never see his truth.

But looking at Lan Li in front of him, with the youthful vigor and vigor, with the wanton and publicity of fiery youth, the image of Lan Li in Roy's mind gradually began to become fuller.

"Are you sure?" Roy looked at the supplies placed in front of him, less than a quarter of the amount of pure water in the kettle, a piece of melted chocolate, half an energy bar, and two slices of whole wheat bread.

The incomparably shabby materials placed in the city will be rejected even by beggars, but placed in the wilderness, they are worth a thousand dollars and extremely precious. In particular, Lan Li left half of the water resources he had left, which is even more commendable.

Lan Li's dark brown eyes flashed slightly, "Whether to leave these supplies or go to the supply point with your back is not a difficult choice." The humorous ridicule made Roy couldn't help but smile. This question should be asked by me, are you sure?"

After a short conversation ~lightnovelpub.net~ the two people have reached the moment of separation again, which is an inevitable experience during the hike. This is a journey of fighting between oneself and oneself. Even if the companion is accompanying, every step on the road must be completed by oneself. Both Roy and Renly clearly understand this.

Roy motioned for Lan Li to leave first, while he stayed where he was, regaining his strength, and then went on the road alone.

"Relax, I won't joke about my life, otherwise, even if I drag your trousers, I won't let you go." Roy, who took off his suit, seemed to be slightly different from the office. , And relax a little while speaking.

Lan Li did not have any mother-in-laws, nodded her head to confirm, and then re-packed her bag, stood up, adjusted her muscles, and prepared to set off again, "When I arrive at the supply station, I will tell the paramedics at the camp tonight. Everyone is waiting for your arrival."

This is also a rescue technique during walking. If Roy still does not appear after a certain time limit, the ambulance crew will go to the rescue to ensure the safety of every lagging person as much as possible.

Roy waved his hand in response, watching Lan Li's back, a thought flashed in his mind, and he raised his voice and said, "Congratulations on your body's recovery."

According to previous news reports, Lan Li’s physical and mental conditions were in trouble in order to film "The Anti-Cancer Me", which triggered a lot of discussion. Some people believe it, and naturally some people do not believe it. Many people in the industry believe that this is a deliberate illusion created by Renly's public relations team in order to quell malicious hype in the news.

But in Roy's view, he believed it to be true.

Lan Li turned around, stepped back methodically, showing a small smile, and said loudly, "Congratulations on embracing freedom and starting life again."
