The reason why ed and Daniel are invited as special guests is that they have something to publicize recently. But in addition, on the one hand, they are close to Langley in age, and on the other hand, they represent music and film. The common topics that can be understood by analogy allow Graham to play freely.

But now, Graham accidentally bumped into a wall. He narrowed his eyes slightly and seemed to question Langley's answer. However, he did not play cards according to common sense. Instead, he did not continue to go around the topic of "whether to invite or not". Instead, he went straight to the main point, "well, what if the London Organizing Committee issued an invitation?"

Last summer, the quadrennial Olympic Games opened in London. Although the Olympic Games were criticized and questioned by the British people because of financial and economic pressure, no one can deny that it caused a sensation.

At the opening ceremony, ed Sheeran, as a representative of the new generation of singers, stepped on the stage.

Unfortunately, in such a grand stage, ED is still too young and immature, and there are still many mistakes in live singing.

In fact, in the planning stage, mainstream media, including the times and the guardian, have reported that "the names of top stars such as Langley hall, Beatles and spice girls appeared in the waiting list of guests for the opening ceremony."

Soon afterwards, Don Quixote won the Grammy and all England Music Awards, and the revival of folk songs set off a storm in the British Isles. Compared with the North American continent, folk songs are more popular in the European continent and have never really disappeared.

All of these make the voice of lanli rising.

However, at that time, Langley quietly returned to the west end of London, disappeared in the public eye, and began to prepare for the performance of "les miserables". Slowly, the relevant news was gone. When the London Organizing Committee announced that ED was selected, it caused a lot of controversy. Many people said that in terms of music, popularity, performance and other aspects, Ed was still inferior to Langley.

Later, "empire" magazine exclusively revealed the background of lanli's family. It was also rumored in the industry that the London Organizing Committee had actually decided to use lanli. However, the hall family got the news ahead of time and exerted strong pressure through their interpersonal relationship, forcing the organizing committee to change its tune and finally gave up the plan to invite lanli.

Around, the London Olympic Games has been over for more than half a year, and the original rumors have disappeared. No one has been able to confirm it, and no one has been able to go further.

Now, on top of his own program, Graham talks about this sensitive taboo topic again, carefully testing the bottom line of Langley.

"No, I will not." Lan Li was dumbfounded.

Matthew once mentioned those rumors to him, but this time, they wronged George and Elizabeth. LOCOG never invited him, or even called Andy Rogers. Even if there was a plan, it also showed that they did not really carry out the operation. At least Arthur did not receive any news, so the hall family's block would not exist.

Even so, when Graham asked, lenley didn't poke the window paper. He just insisted on the original question, as if he didn't realize the deep meaning behind the question.

"I'm an actor, not a singer." "I believe that ED is a more suitable choice. Of course, I won't say that his performance at the opening ceremony is perfect, and no one is perfect. "

The funny words immediately embarrassed ed ed.

As a creator, ED is undoubtedly a talent; But as a performer, Ed's live performances often lead to traffic accidents.

In the face of lanli's ridicule, ed scratched his head, but he didn't retort; Daniel, who was sitting next to him, interjected, "to be honest, I can't imagine what it's like to stand on a stage like that. There are nearly 100000 people on the scene, and there are hundreds of millions of people on TV. Just imagine it, and your scalp will feel numb."

Lan Li turned his head and gently agreed, "so, singers and actors are different after all. When we're in the theater, a thousand people are already big stage, OK? "

"That's it. I've performed in a small theater with 300 people before. I'm scared to pee. " Daniel nodded and said excitedly.

"Cough." Graham cleared his throat hard and made an exaggerated voice, "gentlemen. Do you need a separate room? "

"Open a room.". It's a pun.

He looked up and laughed, as if embarrassed and shy; But Lan Li turned his head gracefully, "do you still provide such service here?"

On the surface, it was a simple counterattack, a frank response to Graham's ridicule; With further study, the word "service" is meaningful. Even Graham raised his knees and exclaimed, "Mr. Langley hall!" He protested righteously, and his face was full of hurt.

Lan Li spread out his hands and looked at the audience to show his innocence.

In a burst of laughter, Graham put down his feet. "In your opinion, in a short period of time, our expectations for the new album should be hopeless."

"Yes. I don't plan to record a new album yet But as far as I know, ED is already working on a new album, and we can look forward to it. As far as I'm concerned, I've always been looking forward to Ed's works. It's definitely not because I have the right to pay dividends in his record contract. "

Everyone clapped and laughed.

Ed himself was also laughing. "Not long ago, I met Marcus, and he mentioned his cooperation with you in the film. He was full of praise. Marcus mentioned before that you and Justin jokingly talked about the possibility of holding a concert... "

"No, it's not me, it's Justin, it's Justin and Marcus, it's not me." Lan Li waved his hand again and again, fearing to avoid it.

Ed was stunned, and his eyes turned, "... So, you mean, if they hold a concert, you don't attend, is that right?"

Then the audience saw lanli's expression, which was too rare, and he was put in the army by the most honest and simple ed, which made the scene more pleasant and the whole audience applauded.

But ed didn't know, so he still looked serious, "isn't it? Did I get it wrong? "

Langley patted ed ed ed on the shoulder and said with a smile, "now is the time to shut up."

Ed shut his mouth innocently. The appearance of the little daughter-in-law made the laughter more crazy.

Graham is not willing to let lanli go easily, "so is ed right? Are you really planning a concert? "

"Hoo, so after a detour, we're back on the movie. I thought I came here today to promote the first anniversary of the Almeida theater's "les miserables", and I hope the audience will continue to support me. " Lan Li spread out his hands to express his helplessness and incomprehension.

"Ah..."

Graham tried to stop it, but it was too late. He could only sigh helplessly.

For the publicity of the works on the talk show, the initiative is often held in the hands of the host, and the introduction is completed in a short and neat way, so as to avoid taking up the program time as much as possible. More importantly, it is through the presence and interaction of the guests to create the exposure rate, and then feedback to the works.

But now, lanli has completed the propaganda task without any delay, and still quietly integrated into the conversation, so the propaganda effect is naturally doubled. For the Almeida theatre, it was a great joy; For the "Norton show", Graham once again felt frustrated and lost the initiative.

Looking at Langley's calm and calm eyes, he didn't feel elated, condescending or swaggering, but Graham felt a strong sense of frustration. He felt that he was "the most difficult interviewee in history".

It was a long time after the recording that Graham really understood why.

Of course, Langley is very good, no matter in control and reaction, or sense of humor and sharpness, in all of Graham's interviewees, absolutely at the top; But Graham will not be defeated and helpless. In the final analysis, the sense of alienation brought by the hereditary aristocracy and the sense of mystery brought by daily life still bound Graham's hands and feet.

After all, they are not able to visit members of the royal family very often.

Compared with the United States, the feelings of the British people are more profound, and their influence is naturally different.

In retrospect, before the program was recorded, Langley released a smoke bomb and issued a warning. On the surface, Graham didn't care and gave a retaliatory counterattack; Actually, the influence is everywhere, which directly leads to the downwind of the whole interview. Now the question is, is Lan Li planning on purpose? Or is it unintentional?

If it's the former

But Langley didn't seem to be aware of Graham's frustration and continued to say, "but the fact is that the film I worked with Justin and Marcus is a work about ballads. We discussed the possibility of holding a concert, which is really true. It's a very interesting thing. "

However, the twinkling light at the bottom of my eyes seems to be describing the complacency and happiness of "the success of the plan".

Graham's mind inexplicably recalled a conversation just now: an Aries, a Scorpio. Then, all of a sudden, there was a shiver.

After realizing this, Graham's fighting spirit instead soared. As a talk show host, the pleasure and happiness of verbal confrontation is the source of life. He doesn't want to miss it easily, so he decided to take the initiative to fight again.

"So that's what's on the calendar, concerts, right?"
