Chapter 179

The air was filled with unspeakable tension. Gavin finally found out the big news. Instead, he became nervous and his palms began to sweat again.

Objectively speaking, Langley did not directly express his views on James, let alone criticize him. He just mentioned the credit of Denny Bauer. Compared with James, Denny is the director who has won the Oscar, and his strength has also received a lot of praise, this time "127 Hours" is no exception. So, there's nothing wrong with lanli's words.

But the art of conversation is obviously not that simple.

It seems that Langley is not far behind Gavin and Andy, and continues to say, "of course, the film is a whole, from the director to the actor, to the script, as well as the lighting, soundtrack, late stage and so on. All of us work together to complete a work." "127 Hours", with the concerted efforts of James, Denny and others, is indeed a commendable work. On the whole, it is better than "buried alive."

Gavin felt that there were a lot of explosive points, and he couldn't respond: in such a short speech, it seemed that Rodrigo and James were lying on the gun at the same time. What's more, buried alive was also lying on the gun. The harvest was too much at one time, which made Gai wince. "So, you mean you prefer 127 Hours to burying alive?"? Is there any disagreement between you and the director? "

"Ha ha." Lan Li was directly amused by this sentence, "no, I prefer to bury alive.". I just think that from an objective point of view, "127 Hours" is indeed a more complete and mature work. Rodriguez and I were constantly learning and groping in the process of shooting "buried alive". Our script framework was narrower and the space to play was more limited, so there would be more room for me to play. For me, of course, this is a good thing. The process of shooting "buried alive" is still unforgettable; But for the work as a whole, this is really a small regret. "

"..." this is Gavin's only reaction, but Andy is a little relieved. Sure enough, on professional issues, lanli has always been objective and serious, without too much elevation or too much devaluation. All the facts are true. Fortunately, he didn't interrupt in the middle of the way, otherwise lanli's speech would suddenly become strange.

However, lanli's straightforward way of speaking may offend many people in Hollywood. For example, James Franco - even if everyone knows that lenley is telling the truth, the person concerned will still feel uncomfortable. More importantly, who wants to listen to the truth?

There were too many hot spots, but Gavin didn't know where to start first, and finally chose the most direct and effective one, "so who do you think, you and James, is more likely to be nominated for the Oscars?"

Lan Li's eyes were full of smiles, and the corners of his mouth rose. "If it was you, who would you vote for?" Before Gavin could answer, he continued, "it's only September now. I don't think Oscar is the topic we need to discuss. The Organizing Committee of Toronto Film Festival won't like our topic."

Gavin burst out laughing. "No, on the contrary, I think they are very happy to see such a topic mentioned more." I glanced at my watch. Time passed quickly, because he was a little late for a while, and disrupted the plan. In fact, he had not inquired about many hot topics, such as two single songs about Langley, and interesting stories during the shooting of "the Pacific War"... But this is the first interview. He can't be too greedy.

"One last question." Gavin said, "do you have any plans for your next work at the moment?" First, "the Pacific War" and then "buried alive". Lanli's two works so far are really unique, which also makes people more interested in his future planning. "It's rumored that superhero movies have begun to contact you?"

Lan Li pursed her lips. The meaning of her smile made Gavin think that he had guessed right. Unexpectedly, Lan Li gave an unexpected answer, "is the news spreading like this? Is it up to a third party to tell the party that something has happened? " Gavin Leng Leng, "if you get the exact information, you are welcome to tell me immediately."

Gavin was amused by lanli's easy joking tone. Before he had time to respond, the door of the room was knocked again. Andy went to open the door. Gavin could only pack up his things quickly. The open briefcase seemed to be no different from half an hour ago, which made people completely unaware of the passage of time.

He casually put his things into his briefcase. When he looked up, he saw lanli standing up and stretched out his right hand. Gavin quickly held lanli's right hand. "Today's interview was very pleasant, thank you."

"My pleasure." Lan Li seems to have regained his impression of gentlemanly. He laughs, "I hope there will be an exclusive interview next time."

If Lan Li is as fleeting as a meteor, there will be no exclusive interview. Langley's remark was obviously a little joke. Gavin gave a big smile. "By the way, you, it's my choice." Oscar nomination, James or Langley, that's his answer. With that, Gavin stepped forward, turned away, and met Bradley Adams, a reporter for the New York Times.

Bradley gave Gavin a big smile. Gavin didn't understand, but nodded politely and left the hotel room.

Bradley's surprise is that there are still people like him who are optimistic about the development prospects of Langley. He made an appointment for an interview before the premiere of "buried alive", but he didn't expect to be half shot slower than Gavin“ With their blessing, "American weekly", the name "Langley hall" will soon spread throughout the United States, not to mention whether people care about him, but at least there will be a major breakthrough in the recognition of his name. It seems that the competition will be more fierce in the future.

Taking his mind back, Bradley quickly stepped forward, took the initiative to shake hands with lenley, and introduced himself. Unexpectedly, lenley said with a smile, "I know you. On the red carpet of the Emmy Awards, that's our second meeting, right?"

Now it's Bradley's turn to be surprised. He can't react for a moment. There are so many journalists in Hollywood, tens of thousands of them, few of them are top reporters. So, generally speaking, it's very difficult for actors to remember reporters' faces. I didn't expect that Lan Li remembered all of them!

However, Langley is very calm. If Bradley walks around the aristocratic society in England, he will know that this is nothing. The family behind a surname is hundreds of people. Sometimes, even the hereditary housekeeper, servant, priest and so on must remember their names and faces.

"I don't know. What kind of media are you?" "The New York Times," Bradley said confidently and calmly

Gavin closed the door of the hotel room, and then he saw that everyone in the line of sight was looking at him, and the mixed eyes almost swallowed him alive.

Every reporter knows that on such a special occasion as the film festival, whether it's an ordinary interview or an exclusive interview, it's better to get ahead. The reason is very simple. An actor and a crew may be bombarded by dozens of media all day, and the questions asked by various media are almost the same. Even if the questions are different, the answers may be similar. Even if it's a joke, it's not funny to say it over and over again 30 times a day.

When the actors are in the most energetic and positive mood, they often get unexpected results; But in the second half of the passage, especially at the end of the passage, the actors may be indifferent, and the answers will become shorter and simpler.

Now, today's golden opportunity is in Gavin's hands. Who knows how much good material is hidden in his recorder?

Cornell McGregor trotted up and hooked Gavin's shoulder. "Brother, you've done this behind your back without saying a word? God! It's you

Gavin originally wanted to refute. At the beginning, two people saw lanli together. It was Cornell who gave up the line. But on second thought, Gavin had a flash of inspiration. Without resisting Cornell's pull, he left the corridor in the sharp and hot sight and went to the safety stairs.

"What's up, man? What did you get today? Share it with me quickly. I don't ask for exclusive, just leftovers. " Cornell said in a low voice, "now the chief editor can't push it. They say that James Franco can easily get there, but Langley can't keep up with the progress, so we are behind." Anyway, a lot of media will complete interviews today. It's estimated that exclusive interviews will be out of the question, and general news will be enough - what's more, Gavin is the first one to interview, so there must be more good news.

Gavin didn't refuse. He and Cornell are college classmates. They have known each other for many years. After graduation, one of them went to "American weekly" and the other went to "Entertainment Weekly". They competed and cooperated with each other. The relationship was extraordinary, so he didn't beat around the bush. "You didn't follow Natalie's line. Tell me what you found."

Cornell: Gavin is willing to trade Natalie's news for Langley's? This is not equivalent exchange! However, Gavin is sure not to make a loss, which means that Natalie's news is full of tricks that he doesn't know. In a moment of rapid change, Gavin made a judgment: "there's no news in the last two days. Natalie and the crew have been together. Then their publicist invited all the cast members and stand INS to have a party. At other times, Natalie's not at home at all

Gavin pondered for a moment. Recalling what Langley had just said, a bold idea came out. "Was Benjamin there when Natalie and the crew were working together?"

"Nonsense, of course. Benjamin is the chief choreographer." Cornell took it for granted, and then he saw Gavin's meaningful look, pausing, and said strangely, "no... no?"

"Why not?" Gavin's retort choked Cornell. "Now the question is, why is Natalie willing to have an affair with Langley, but unwilling to expose it?"
