Chapter 1268

North America, on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, is now shrouded in a thick night. In Los Angeles in the early hours of the morning, the night is gradually falling and quieting down. In addition to night owls and party animals, the whole city has also gone to sleep. The sound of cicadas in early summer has begun to call for the coming of dry heat and boredom, and the sound of snoring in deep sleep has begun to play a symphony.

Los Angeles is not New York after all.

The tireless ringing of mobile phone wakes up Andy Rogers, who has just fallen asleep. His uncontrollable irritability and anger begin to burn. However, for agents, the 24-hour uninterrupted work is their daily life. No matter how tired or irritable he is, Andy still presses his boiling mood and picks up the phone.

Through the hazy line of sight, glancing at the caller ID, Andy sighs, gritting his teeth to express his strong protest, and then on the other end of the phone comes lanli's voice with a smile, "this is the first time. I've always wondered what Andy Rogers looked like after he took off his work mask

One breath stuck in his throat. Andy shook his head, sat up straight, rubbed his temples and tried to wake himself up. "Unfortunately, you didn't know. I'm not going to let you invade my private life. " After half joking, "what's going on? I can fall asleep at any time now. You'd better hurry up. "

Having said that, Andy straightened up to cheer himself up.

Because he knew that with lanli's personality, if it was not an important matter, he would never take the initiative to call, and it would not happen once a year; What's more, even if there is a real situation, Langley is not a self willed type. He and Roy are already worried, but Langley is not in a hurry. Now he ignores the time difference and dials the phone at the first time. This behavior itself is enough to explain the problem.

"I need to get diesel out." Without polite greetings, lanli directly threw a heavy bomb.

Andy slightly Leng Leng, brain a little slow half shot, and then react, "completely out?"

"That's the ultimate goal, but don't worry now." Lanli said lightly, and the coldness between his actions made Nathan and Roy shiver.

Later, lanli briefly described the whole story of today. "I guess there should be something wrong with the Norton show. You can ask what's going on. But not expected, it should be diesel to put pressure on the program, nothing more than to emphasize his position in the industry

"Ha." Andy chuckled, revealing a strong confidence between the words. Three years ago, when shooting "speed and passion 5", Andy didn't pay attention to diesel, let alone three years later? Obviously, diesel is good scar forget pain, now seems to have been unable to carry his position and weight.

"What do you want to do?" Andy didn't ask too much, so he got to the point.

Lanli eyebrows gently, for Andy's straightforward and full support showed a little surprise, Andy on the other end of the phone seems to understand lanli's inner activities, stretched a stretch, easily said, "lanli, you are a freak, except for the performance, nothing is important, you never fight for anything, you never care about anything."

The only exception is friends.

For Lan Li, friends are his enemies. So is Heather cross, and so is Paul Walker.

"So I know that when you make up your mind, the seriousness of this matter is beyond the normal range." Andy said, chuckled, "don't say a van diesel, even the other top actors, this matter, I also 100% support your decision."

"What if it's Robert Downey Jr Lanli mentioned a name narrowly.

"..." Andy is silent. Even though he knows that lanli is joking, he is still in a cold sweat.

A smile appeared at the bottom of his eyes, and he didn't continue the prank. "Let's give a warning to diesel now, otherwise he always thinks that we are silent and submissive, and then he can do whatever he wants. Next, if he can be restrained, then everything will be OK. To be honest, it's really lonely without the speed and passion of diesel. "

Andy chuckles and doesn't respond. Obviously, he has reservations about lanli's ridicule.

"If I remember correctly, did Marvel have an invitation before? Wish I could be a superhero? " Lanli put forward his own plan for the camp step by step.

Andy gives a positive response, "why, are you interested?"

"It's not about me today." Langley didn't give a positive answer. He brought the focus of the topic back to the right track. "Paul told me that recently, diesel is also in contact with marvel, and seems to have the hope to play in a superhero movie?"

"The message is not completely correct, but there is no error in the general direction." Andy did not correct Langley's statement, but simply said, "the image of diesel is not in line with Marvel's positioning and aesthetic of superheroes. If he plays a superhero, there should be no hope, but if he plays a superhero movie, it is still possible."

Blue Li gently jaw head.

The present situation is still completely consistent with the previous life.

In his last life, he starred in the highly acclaimed work "Galactic guard", in which he voiced grute, the tree spirit. Although there is only one line "I'm Groot" in the whole movie, this lovely character has become the biggest egg of the whole movie and won the favor of countless fans. As a dubbing member, diesel naturally is also in the limelight.

Action actors have limited living space in Hollywood. They often need to constantly seek breakthroughs. The combination of comedy and action is undoubtedly one of the best choices. Later, dawn Johnson opened up a world in comedy and became the leader of a new generation of action stars.

At the beginning, diesel also tried the comedy style through such works as "brave father". Unfortunately, he lacks acting ability and sense of humor, and comedy can not achieve the expected effect all the way, so he can only continue to be trapped in the field of action performance. "Galaxy guard" is another attempt of diesel.

Now, lanli is going to cut off this road of diesel and knock the mountain and shake the tiger!

The reason why lanli ignored the time difference and chose to call Andy in the early hours of Los Angeles was that every minute counts.

The preparatory process of the "Galaxy guard" has far exceeded expectations. According to Paul and the memory of his last life, Langley infers that the film should have entered the final sprint stage now, ready to be signed and filmed at any time. If you want to cut the Hu at this time, you must seize the time.

In the final analysis, it's because lanli is not in the middle of it and doesn't know the details, so he can only choose to call Andy at the first time and give it to Andy to judge.

If we miss the chance of "Galaxy guard", we must take a long-term view, and things are obviously more troublesome. Because "Galaxy guard" is a project from Disney and marvel, and they are now seeking the cooperation of lanli. To some extent, things are more convenient and smooth, and lanli also has some initiative.

"I understand." Lenley nodded and responded to Andy's words, "you first communicate with Lucas hunt, and you are ready to replace Russell with Paul." Lucas is Paul's agent. In Langley's opinion, Paul's voice is more suitable for grute's image and personality. Maybe Paul can give grute more attractive characteristics.

"Then you get in touch with marvel or Disney and say I'm willing to work with them, but only if I refuse to work with diesel." Lanli expressed his views directly.

Of course, the specific negotiation and negotiation process, Andy certainly will not be so simple and rough. This is a kind of negotiation skill. In the final analysis, it's actually an exchange of interests. It's a good deal to exchange Landry and Paul for a diesel. Universal Pictures has been unable to make a decision, but Andy believes that Disney is bound to be different.

"How much are you willing to give in?" Andy needs to know his chips, "in a marvel superhero movie?"

"Well, I don't think Marvel would invite me to be a superhero." "They need actors of high quality and low price to tap their market potential, and then firmly control all their interests in their own hands. It's not cost-effective to invite me to play a superhero," he said

Now lanli can easily join the 20 million club, which is not a good deal for Disney.

Take a rough look at all the superhero actors in Marvel pictures. When they first appeared, they were all cheap actors, even Robert Downey Jr.

The only difference should be Dr. strange, played by Benedict Cumberbatch. Before he appeared in this work, he had already won an Oscar nomination for best actor by virtue of "imitation game". But in fact, this is his first commercial film. Disney has not released official data on film remuneration. It is said that, Benedict was paid only five million dollars.

On the whole, Warner Brothers insisted on the strategy of star bombing, while Disney chose the grassroots and people friendly route.

As Langley said, Disney has its own account. They invite lanli to play a superhero, which is more just a means of hype. Even if they really want to cooperate with lanli, it may be other projects.

"But I can open up the possibility of signing a contract with them for a work, provided that the script project is selected by me." Lanli played his own card.

"What if they ask for a cracker drummer?" Andy has made a point of recent time.

Lenley shrugged. "Then they need to work with Andre Hamilton."

"Understand!" Andy nodded. "I'll start arranging."

After hanging up the phone, Lan Li closed his eyes and showed a relaxed state. He didn't seem to care about the possible wavelength caused by the arrangement of the phone call.

He said he was never a gentleman or an angel.
