"Buried alive"?

Lan Li was a little surprised. Andy visited the thatched cottage today. Obviously, the real driving force is the Emmy Award, just like Fisher, but Andy did not take the lead in mentioning the Emmy Award, but focused on "Buried alive." This is indeed an unusual path. However, this is also one of the reasons why Lan Li chose Andy.

Lan Li started to mention the work "Buried Alive". Andy listened very carefully. He even asked in detail about the script and some details of the shooting. Then he folded his hands on his belly, like Maitreya Buddha. , I fell into deep thinking, even when I was thinking, that smile still lingered on my lips, as if it had become a habit.

"To put things together, this is an independent work. Your absolute one-man show occupies ninety-nine percent of the scene; then you constantly challenged yourself during the filming process, and the difficulty of acting even surpassed the'Pacific War'. Is that right?" Andy made a summary, and Lan Li nodded affirmatively, "I don't have anything to add."

"By the way, how long is the shooting cycle?"

"eight days."

Andy pondered it over again. In fact, Lan Li is not too curious about these things, because they are all the brokers’ professions. Now that the brokers have been hired, please leave these professional and tedious matters to professionals. Up. However, this is the initial stage of cooperation between the two people. They need to get in touch, they need to understand, and they need to cultivate trust. Otherwise, the next time Lan Li wants to star in an independent film like "Buried Alive", how can he be sure that Andy will do his best? Go ahead and fight for his role?

"What's your opinion about this work?" Lan Li also went straight to the subject without circumstance.

Andy raised his head, did not answer immediately, but nodded slightly, "Good thing, to be precise, it is a happy event, and the situation is far better than I thought."

Now, Andy is a little grateful that Renly has signed with him instead of Fisher. In terms of film selection and career planning, Lan Li is firm enough and wise enough. Maybe such a person is more troublesome to cooperate. There is no way to simply use the "vase" route. But once the cooperation is successful, the final The limit is worth looking forward to.

"Remember what we said when we met last time? I think you'd better start with independent works, establish a public impression of outstanding acting skills, and then strive to win a nomination at the awards ceremony. Next, we can try Some characteristic business scripts explore different possibilities." Andy's words were smooth and flowing in one go. Obviously, his career plan for Lan Li had already been stored in his head, although Lan Li nodded his agreement until today.

The self-confidence revealed behind this quietly reveals its sharp edge-he is so sure that Renly will definitely sign with him.

Andy showed a big smile, "So, we are here now. You first won an Emmy nomination, and then you starred in an independent film that maximizes your acting skills. God, we can't pray for better Before this, Andy’s cognition of Lan Li was always just a guess and a speculation, but after hearing the details of "Buried alive", he finally confirmed his thoughts and confirmation. Own plan.

"Next, if not unexpected,'buried alive' should land in Toronto-at least let us pray that the quality of the finished product can reach such a level. Then we go to Telluride and look at the small shops in New York, Rome and Europe. Film festival, by the way, are you British? Maybe we can go to London..."

Andy's simple words revealed too much information. The place names he mentioned all have their own film festivals, and every film festival is a carnival feast for movie fans. Among them, the Telluride Film Festival is the film festival that Lanly has always wanted to visit, surpassing the Sundance Film Festival and the Venice Film Festival-the former is the highest stage of independent films, and the latter is the oldest film. Festival, it can be seen that Lanly has longed for the Telluride Film Festival. Just imagine that he can participate in it, and he can't help but become excited.

Unlike ordinary film festivals, the Telluride Film Festival is truly a carnival for fans, because the main committee does not set any awards or red carpets. It completely opens the film festival to all fans and allows the film Fans enjoy the beauty of movies in this small town.

For Lanly, this is a place of worship. In his previous life, he had watched thousands of movies, but he had never really found loyal and experienced film lovers to communicate. Telluride has abandoned commercial propaganda, professional authority, and the threshold of viewing movies. The way of truly giving the choice to the general public is completely the ultimate look of dreams.

"If we enter December and our momentum is good, we may be able to look forward to your first Ballon d'Or nomination. Then, your choice will be completely different from now on." The ambitions leaked out between the words are very impressive. With admiration, especially such strong words are spoken from the face that is always smiling, and there is really a sense of violation.

Andy took the initiative to cut off the following words, and clicked to stop. Because he knows that it is not too early to be happy, the annual awards season can be said to be a chaotic battlefield where thousands of troops are swarming, and no one knows how the result will develop until the last moment. What's more, the quality of "buried alive" and what level of performance can be achieved by Lanli is still unknown.

Afterwards, Andy changed the subject, "The future is up to time. First of all, we need to start in Toronto." If "Buried alive" even the Toronto competition list cannot be included, then all the ideas just now are fantasy. "No, you should start with the director first. You give me the contact information of the director. He is also a producer, right? We need to communicate and plan."

Lan Li had already come back to his senses at this time. In his previous life, the awards season of "Buried Alive" had not received any affirmation, and even no nomination. It almost disappeared, so how it will develop in this life is also a huge unknown.

"I didn't know that the actor's agent actually interfered in the distribution of the film." Lan Li calmed down and joked with a smile.

Andy looked calm, "If it's an independent film, and it's a film in which my actor is the dominant player, then, yes, I will interfere in the distribution and promotion of the film. Maybe not directly involved in those work, but at least I It can match and let them find a more reliable distribution company."

The wide network of agents is unimaginable; the energy of top agents is unimaginable.

"Before Toronto, we still have a major task that needs to be dealt with first." Andy sorted out his thoughts and just took over the brokerage contract of Lan Li. Everything must start from the beginning, and the "Pacific War" and the potential "buried alive." Both have the value of further planning, and Andy knows that the rest of this year will be extremely busy, which is a good sign.

"Emmy."

Lan Li smiled and nodded, knowing that it has only been a few hours since he won the Emmy nomination. He still doesn't have much realism, "I just heard the news in the afternoon."

"The'Pacific War' is definitely a big show." Andy summed it up in one sentence. After his introduction, Lan Li finally learned about the nomination for this year's Emmy Awards.

In the miniseries and TV film divisions of "Pacific War", the competition this year is a bit out of balance. The competition in miniseries is not fierce at all. In the end, only "Pacific War" and "Crandford Chronicle" were shortlisted for nominations. ; But the competition in TV and film is extremely fierce. There are six works that won nominations, "Autistic Journey", "Doctor Death", "Special Relationship", "Moon Probe", "End of the Game" and "Georgia-Oki". "Fu" was nominated successfully.

Therefore, in terms of overall projects and technical projects, the "Pacific War" has an absolute advantage, and it is a great success, but in the combined competition of miniseries and TV movies such as directors, screenwriters, and actors, it will face severe tests.

Nevertheless, the "Pacific War" relied on the huge advantages of the technical department and won twenty-four nominations. Among them, the best director, best screenwriter, best photography, best visual effects and other departments are all double nominations. The Best Mixing Department even occupies four of the five nominations. In terms of the number of nominations alone, the "Pacific War" surpassed the "Brother Company~www.novelhall.com~~ to a new high.

However, the biggest breakthrough of the "Pacific War" is undoubtedly the nomination of the best actor, which complements the "Cladford Chronicle" judi-dench (judi-dench) and became the pillar of this year's miniseries— -There were a total of 20 nominated seats in the acting department, of which only two were awarded for the miniseries, and the TV movie swept the remaining eighteen.

Even among the twenty nominees, Lan Li is the most eye-catching outlier. At only twenty years old, he made his debut, a miniseries with war scenes as the main theme, and group dramas occupy the themed series. However, Lan Li relied on the delicate, solid, profound and far-reaching performances, and successfully won the favor of the judges. The first nomination of his career, a blockbuster!

The real blockbuster.

"By then, when you attend the awards ceremony, it must be the focus of everyone's attention. Before that, you were an unknown person, an insignificant fellow, and no one knew your name; but now, you have and Al- Pacino and Jeff Bridges are eligible to compete on the same stage. Regardless of the outcome of the award, you have succeeded."

Andy did not stingy with his exclamations. Looking at Lan Li in front of him, he suddenly had an idea, so he asked, "Do you want to win a prize?"

"Yes." Lan Li's answer was straightforward, concise and clear, without any roundabouts, and straightforwardly showed his state of mind. Even in the face of four veteran actors, even in the face of four Oscar-level actors, even in the face of long-established and luxuriant actors, even in the first nomination for his debut debut, Lan Li still did not flinch. , And there is no hesitation.

Andy's smile fell to the bottom of his eyes, and he nodded involuntarily, "Then we'd better choose from the suit. The red carpet is where everything starts."
