"What?" Lan Li picked his eyebrows in surprise. He was surprised and slightly out of his countenance. Then he laughed happily. "Andre, Sisyphus is a tragic figure. Why do you want to use this name all of a sudden? Even Icarus seems to be more interesting. "

"I know." How could Andre not know that? He shrugged indifferently, then said meaningfully, "but Don Quixote, too."

Lanli's smile stopped at the corner of his mouth. Quietly, lanli and Andre exchanged a sight.

For most people, Sisyphus is a tragedy. He is always trapped in the same samsara, carrying the huge stone and pushing it up, but he can't reach the top of the mountain. It's a punishment. But how could Don Quixote not be?

Only those who really know how to persevere can understand that sometimes, to persevere in a dream that is destined not to come true is not to realize it, but for that obsession. Perhaps this obsession is the punishment of fate; But maybe, this belief is also from the energy of life, some stupid, but pure enough.

Andre recalled the private party held by the Earl of Oxford not long ago, and the song "this is me". After that, many things have changed, he has changed, they have changed, but from the beginning to the end, lanli has never changed. Even though the vicissitudes of life, the figure is still persevering, just like Sisyphus.

Sometimes, tragedy can carry the weight of the soul, far beyond imagination.

In the end, lanli gently agreed, raised his coffee cup and motioned to Andre, "pay homage to Sisyphus."

Andre also showed a smile, also raised the coffee cup, sipped, he then said, "I have solved the related copyright issues, officially completed the registration, and now Sisyphus film has been officially established. In addition, our company's official social network account has been registered, which is directly related to your account. "

Blue Li slightly frowned and looked at the past.

Andre added, "you won't forget, your social network account is called Sisyphus?"

Lan Li stayed in the same place, thought seriously, and didn't speak.

Sure enough, I forgot.

Andre shook his head helplessly. "Please be sure to update the content of the social network, OK? You know, a lot of people are watching your every move. "

Lanli shrugged his shoulders and said no.

Andre was helpless, so he simply let it go, and then added, "by the way, do you think it's more appropriate for me to stay in New York and open up the situation? Or fly over to Los Angeles? Although both places are production bases, the main staff of the film industry are still in Los Angeles, right

Instead of rushing to speak, Langley thought seriously, "indeed, the talent concentration in Los Angeles is far more than that in New York. In fact, most of New York are high-end talents, and there is no way to compare the number with Los Angeles. "

"But as far as I'm concerned, if you want to move closer to independent art movies, you can find more opportunities here in New York to find professionals in Los Angeles through them, which is more convenient than looking for a needle in a haystack; If you are inclined to make commercial films, the professionals of assembly line production are all in Los Angeles. You just need to go to the trade union or find top producers, and things will soon open up. "

"So you need a clearer idea, at least for the next three years. However, if we choose the independent art film, the college public relations must start to establish the network now. Although I personally hold a hesitant attitude towards college public relations, that's how the Oscars and awards season work, just like in London. "

In the final analysis, lanli is still an actor. His understanding of production, publicity, distribution and so on is still limited, and his professional advice is really limited. He starts from his own understanding, but lanli still tells Andre his own ideas as far as possible.

Andre gently jaw head, but eyes again calm down, obviously has entered the mode of thinking.

The air is so quiet, but there is no embarrassment. Everyone falls into their own thinking world, and the three best friends will not feel uncomfortable.

After a long time, Eaton finally responded. He seemed to have made a big decision. His expression became firm and he clenched his fist. "Blue, I'd like to try. I'm not sure how much impact this will have, but it's going to take a try, isn't it? "

This step for Eaton has been very difficult, can't ask him one step in place.

Eaton turned to Andre and said, "are you working on a project with Langley now? If I can, I hope I can join the cast, watch the work of the costume stylist, understand the whole process and principle, and then make a further decision. "

Andre slightly stunned, and then reacted, "the specific project is in the hands of lanli, we just talked about today, I don't know the details, you can ask him."

Turning his head, Eaton saw the script on the tea table with blue Li's sign, "is that it?"

Eaton curiously picked up the script and flipped through it. "What parts should I read? What should we pay attention to? "

"Eaton, it's the same as a play. Everyone gets different information. The difference between film and drama is very obvious, but it is not completely divorced from the same artistic creation mode. " Lanli could sense that Eaton was cautious, even tight, and could not help laughing.

Then, Langley added, "by the way, the hero of the script, the actor I strongly recommend, should be here soon. You can talk face to face."

"What?" Andre and Eaton were both surprised and looked at lenley in bewilderment.

"Well, didn't I say that?" Blue Li was relaxed and caught the eyes of Andre's Tucao. He explained that "actually this project was Andy's first step for me. But after I read the script seriously, I make complaints about another actor. I think he is the most suitable actor."

"So I took the initiative to contact him, hoping that he could come and have a face-to-face talk. If you are satisfied, you can talk about cooperation directly; You can observe his image and temperament beside him, and then think about how the so-called modeling design should be combined with the role. " The first half of the sentence is for Andre, the second half is for Eaton. Obviously, Langley has connected everything.

Today is an occasion to put a thread through.

I thought it was just afternoon tea

Andre frowned. "But shouldn't the project of talking to actors be handed over to the producers and agents? I know very little about film projects. How can I talk to actors? "

"Rest assured, this is a very professional and dedicated actor. He doesn't have any requirements for the film payment. If you talk to him face to face, you can basically understand his ideas and needs, and then tell your ideas. This is also a way for you to participate in the production of the project. Even if you don't know much about it, it doesn't matter. "

Blue Li a pair of shake hands shopkeeper's appearance, Andre is also dumbfounded.

"Andre, believe me, you can do well." Lan Li chuckled. "It's really no good. Let's take it as a polite meeting on a social occasion today. Let him read the script. You can test his personality and style, and then announce the end. The follow-up will be handed over to the agent and producer."

Truth, Andre all know, but all of a sudden was killed by blue Li unprepared, he was helpless, "blue Li, please do not have the next time, this is really not good."

Lan Li nodded his approval.

But Andre looked at Langley's face with a light smile, and immediately understood, "you'll be like this next time, won't you? God, please tell me, why are we friends? I remember that I had already left you and enjoyed my life alone. How did we meet again? "

"Fate." Lan Li said solemnly.

Then Eaton, sitting next to him, began to laugh heartlessly. Looking at Andre's face like the bottom of a pot, he couldn't stop laughing.

I could see someone coming. I thought it was a waiter or a passing guest, but the other person stopped by the coffee table and stood in the same place. He didn't get close or leave. He kept a distance.

Lanli thought he was a fan, but when he looked up, he saw a familiar and handsome face, "Hey, Jack. Here you are

Jack Gyllenhaal took the initiative to step forward, holding Langley's right hand and bumping each other's shoulders. "Sorry, I'm late. Please don't interrupt your conversation because of my presence, or I'll be even more sorry." In fact, today, lanli deliberately staggered the appointment time, and Jack obviously understood this, but he still offered to apologize, especially for his rash act of interrupting the conversation.

"If so, does that mean that whatever I ask you today, you have to agree?" Langley joked mischievously.

Jack is an honest man, repeatedly nodded in agreement, "of course, of course."

Blue Li showed a big smile, "Jack, you should be alert, don't trust others, otherwise, you will be deceived."

"But you're not anybody, are you?" Jack's retort makes blue Li stand in the same place, there is no way to retort.

Andre and Eaton's eyes flashed a smile, a face, they can feel Jack's character and character.

Blue Li spread out both hands, "I have no way to refute."
