Roy Lockley arrived at Pioneer Village. It was a quarter past eight, which was the peak of dinner. There were three groups of people waiting for a table at the door, which surprised Roy. However, after asking about it, Roy discovered that Lan Li had reserved a place for him in advance, and he was able to skip the line and enter the bar directly.

　　 After finding the position, the leader said enthusiastically, "You wait here for a while, and Lan Li will come over right away."

Sure enough, after a short while, Lanly walked over quickly, "Good evening, Mr. Rockley." After greeted politely, he handed over the menu, "It's a busy time now, if you haven't used it yet. If you have dinner, then you can enjoy it slowly, and after this period of time has passed, I will come back, okay?

Roy was stunned, looking at the blue gift wearing a dark blue printed shirt in front of him. The sleeves of the shirt were rolled up randomly, and the black tie was tucked into the gap between the third and fourth buttons, making it easy to do things and neatly dressing up. But there was no taste. Such a scene made Roy really overwhelmed, but he nodded reflexively, and then Lan Li quickly introduced the menu, leaving Roy the time to decide, and turned around and left.

　　 After two short contacts, Roy thought he was mentally prepared for Lan Li's casualness and freedom, but at this moment he still felt a strong sense of absurdity.

　　 As an agent, he personally came to the door to find actors and informed the other party that there was an audition invitation, but the other party was... competently completing the job of a waitress. Is this dedication? Still not dedicated? Roy feels a little confused. In the past few years, he has dealt with no one thousand and eight hundred actors, but Lan Li is still the first one like this.

　　 Thinking of this, Roy couldn't help but laugh.

　　 "Sorry, I kept you waiting." Lan Li walked over at a steady pace and sat down in front of Roy.

　　Although he was anxious, his steps and breathing were not disturbed, and the connotation and education displayed between his gestures and gestures were indeed unique. If Roy's impression of Renly was a bit vague before, it gradually became clearer now.

"It's okay, the performance tonight is very exciting." The display on the wall always shows that it has just passed ten o'clock and the waiting time is indeed beyond expectation, but Roy did not lie. This is his first relaxing moment in two months. , Really relax, "I heard that you also perform on stage occasionally?"

　　 Roy usually doesn't like chatting with actors very much. But Lan Li is different. Every brief conversation can always bring him something to gain.

"Occasionally a cameo." Lan Li looked back at the stage. Tonight was an independent folk band. They used African drums, sand hammers, saxophones and other unique instruments to deduce the unrestrained and unrestrained folk songs. The sense of freedom is quite special. "I'm not sure how you feel, but music can always calm me and keep me focused." Lan Li looked at Roy again and said with a smile, "I mean, except for sleeping Outside."

　　 Roy was amused, "I feel the same way as you. However, I think you are a type of classical music."

"God, it seems that I need to change my image. Is my impression so old-fashioned? You are the second person to have different opinions on my image today." Lan Li's teasing made Roy laugh. .

Roy shrugged, "Although I don't have a deep study of accents, I still have no problem with a pure London accent." And the etiquette between Lan Li's gestures and gestures is a habit that goes deep into the bones. All of these can be seen. Human heritage.

Take the accent as an example. The picky and arrogant British will not only distinguish between London accents and other regional accents, but also distinguish East London accents and West London accents. The small details of the words and tones often become the moment they speak. The first basis for the British to judge family background.

　　 "It seems to switch to New York, this is my top priority." Lan Li shook his head solemnly, and his serious appearance made people feel uncomfortable.

　　 "Your Texas accent is very convincing." Roy commented pertinently.

　　 Lan Li raised an eyebrow, "but it's not so popular in New York." Generally speaking, the North American continent discriminates against the central part of the strait, the northern part discriminates against the southern part, and the United States discriminates against Canada on the upper side and Mexico on the lower side. New York, a self-proclaimed cultural man, is undoubtedly a leader, almost comparable to a Londoner.

"Haha, this is the truth." Roy nodded and expressed affirmation. "Aren't you curious about what kind of work is the invitation?" Roy originally planned to continue chatting, but his professional instinct/ability still couldn't help but take the risk. Come on.

　　 "Oh, yes." Lan Li suddenly realized, "So, what is the invitation? I have been very curious this afternoon."

Looking at Lan Li’s unhurried appearance, Roy did not feel chest tightness, but found it interesting. What he was even more looking forward to was how Lan Li would react when he heard about the invitation project. "Thunder God, from Man Invitation from Granville Pictures and Paramount Pictures, they hope you can audition for the role of Thor."

In the long history of film development, comic-based movies can be divided into three eras. Before 1978, there was almost no market for comic-based movies. The two major comic companies, Marvel and DC, have always been in the otaku market. Minute.

The second era was from 1978 to 2008. In 1978, Christopher-Reeve's "Superman" detonated the market and opened the 20th year that DC Comics occupied the movie market; in 2002, "Spiderman" crossed the market. Born out of nowhere, teamed up with the later "X-Men" to achieve a go-ahead for Marvel. But at this stage, the comic-based movie is like Duan Yu's Six-Medim Excalibur, which is not effective from time to time.

The third era is after 2008. Starting from the emergence of "Iron Man", a comic-based movie has truly become a brand-new type of movie, and has even become the pillar of the movie market. No film company can be small. Looking at the business opportunities hidden behind the comics, a whole new era has since been opened.

　　 Just last month, "Iron Man 2" was released in North America, and the premiere weekend broke out with an excellent performance of 128 million U.S. dollars, ranking fifth in movie history. At present, the cumulative box office in four weeks has reached 275 million, and the threshold of 300 million is basically determined to be a certainty. It can be said that the wave of comic-based movies has been brought to a whole new level.

　　 "Thor" was put on the shooting agenda under this background, and the highly anticipated description is not exaggerated.

　　 "Thor Thor?" Lanly's first reaction was stunned. It was not because of the huge investment in this movie, but because of Sol's screen image and Eugene in the "Pacific War". If it is the Li/Ann version of "Hulk", it can also be considered that Li/Ann wants to show the strong contrast before and after Bruce-Banner's transformation, so he chose Lan Li to audition, but Huh? From the perspective of casting roles, Lan Li could not understand the connection.

"Hanks praised your potential in at least three private gatherings. The performance presented by the'Pacific War' is also convincing enough. To be honest, many film companies now think you will be the next A Brad-Pitt.” Roy explained briefly, making Lan Li suddenly realize.

　　 But when he heard the last sentence, Lan Li didn't hold back his laugh. Brad Pitt.

Of course, when Brad just debuted, his performances in "The Years of Love", "Twelve Monkeys", "Seven Deadly Sins", "Fight Club" and other works have indeed won a lot of praise, but Brad has never It's not an actor who is good at acting.

　　 If they define Lanli in this way, then Lanli is probably not blessed. "I'm not very interested in film adaptation of comics." Lan Li replied.

　　 Roy was dumbfounded. He guessed that Lanly’s response in different ways, of course, also included "rejection", but he never expected that Lanly refused so simply and neatly, without even thinking or hesitating, he declined the proposal lightly. This...this is simply unbelievable. Roy felt that his heart couldn't hold it, so he couldn't help but picked up the beer, took a big sip, and took a big sip. He needed to suppress his shock.

　　 "Len Li, do you know how huge the investment in this work is?" Roy believes that Lan Li may be a pure newcomer who does not yet understand the internal situation of the industry, so he refused so simply.

　　 In the casting process in Hollywood, there is such an unwritten rule: If you want to become the protagonist of a top big production ~ lightnovelpub.net~ Whether it is a male or a female lead, it must go through a certain amount of experience. Although people always see Hollywood fairy tales that have become famous overnight and have reached the sky in one step, there are examples like Megan Fox in "Transformers", or Joe-Alwyn in "Billy Lynn's Chinese" Situations like "fights" are really rare.

　　 Most of the time, actors need a certain foundation. Most of them are unknown small productions. They use their performance as a bargaining chip and use the top agents to impress those top big-name producers. Work history, good performance, and top brokers are all indispensable. It will take two to three years at the earliest from an unknown young actor to a leading star in a top big production.

　　 At the beginning, Francis Parker saw Renly's performance in the "Pacific War" and called Tom Hanks, saying that he could push Renly to the front line in three years. This time period is not nonsense, but a true portrayal of real life.

Now, Lan Li only starred in one TV series, and without the agent’s blessing, he actually entered the casting stage of the top blockbuster-although this is just an audition invitation, it means that Lan Li can compete with those Big-name producers talk face-to-face, regardless of whether the audition is successful or not, this will also be the key to Renly's next work.

　　 For example, the next time there is a big production, even if there is no top agent to help manage it, the name of Lan Li will appear on the desktop of those producers. In such a situation, it is not one in ten thousand, but one in ten million. Others have not been able to win the opportunity after three years of hard work. It is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to put it before Lan Li!

　　 But Lan Li actually refused! Even if he was as calm as Roy, his jaw was on the verge of dislocation.
