"Len Li, may I ask, are you ready to start shooting again when you return to New York this time?"

With great difficulty, Lan Li's footsteps finally came to a halt, and someone immediately asked the most curious and most anticipated question; under the attention of the public, Lan Li did not hesitate or pause, and gave a clear and affirmative answer." Yes." One sentence immediately detonated all the excitement of the reporters.

"Excuse me, is it'Burst Drummer'?"

"I have chosen independent films for several consecutive works. What about commercial films?"

"About Marvel movies, are you thinking about it?"

"Will you attend the Tony Award Ceremony?"

"Do you have any expectations for the possibility of EGOT?"

"Choose an independent hero movie again, are you ready to hit the Oscars for the second time?"

"Is this a selection of works that hit the awards season?"

"Do you feel sorry for being absent from this year's summer game?"

"Are you willing to increase performance opportunities for commercial films in the future? Or still stick to the line of independent art films?"

...

The reporters did not give Lan Li any breathing space at all. One question after another poured down like a gust of wind and rain, and it seemed that he had not considered how Lan Li should answer the question.

Lan Li stood there with a smile, did not speak, but did not leave. Gradually, the surrounding noise finally calmed down. All eyes were focused on Lan Li, waiting for his response, if it weren’t for his response. With the boiling dust remaining, then the noise just now seemed to have never happened at all.

"In the next period of time, I will focus on the preparation of the'Burst Drummer' and the subsequent filming work. This is the only core and focus of my work. Thank you for your concern and enthusiasm, and thank you all for coming to the airport to welcome me. Thank you everyone." Lan Li's words are still gentle and decent.

After expressing his position, Lan Li stepped forward again. Amidst a stunned look and another surging question, he walked quickly to the outside of the airport pick-up hall.

The reporters followed suit step by step, and only then noticed that a row of big men in black suits was blocking their footsteps; moreover, there were more than one or two, there were a full eight in front, back and forth, and Lan Li was strictly surrounded by them. Like the Great Wall of China, an insurmountable wall gradually built up between the reporter and Lan Li.

As a result, they could only watch Lan Li's figure disappear into the jet-black van, and finally walked away slowly.

The reporters who stayed in the same place stomped their feet with anger, swearing, "Now Lan Li has learned how to play big names? He is equipped with eight bodyguards? What is this! Don't you pretend to be a New Yorker? How come you have started to show off like the so-called superstars in Hollywood! Damn!"

The swearing of swear words unreservedly vented the inner dissatisfaction and anger.

But this time, he failed to win the solidarity of his colleagues.

"So, what are you looking forward to? He just stood there obediently, letting us strip all his clothes naked, and interview whatever we want? The young artists should give up resistance and ask for anything? Greenwich Village is full of streets. They are all young people, why don’t you see you interview them specifically? Why don’t you see that they need to hire bodyguards to guard against reporters' invasion? You can interview them as much as you want, and they will show you the real upright, just like Woody- Like Allen!"

"You..." There was a voice attacking Tucao. The reporter tried to refute, but before the words could be finished, more Tucao was added one after another, and then he fell into a dilemma of embarrassment on all sides. Among them, completely isolated and helpless.

"Don't pay attention to him, it seems that Lanly does not have a bodyguard, he can successfully complete the interview. Maybe he still wants to be the second Cornell McGregor, attacking Lanly with nonsense slander, Then it becomes everyone’s conversational resource."

"Who knows, maybe the uncrowned king has such a face, so this will always be uncrowned, unable to be crowned, because it is really ugly to eat."

"If it's so awesome, it's better to just ask Andy Rogers to make an appointment. When someone hangs up, you can only curse behind you. That would be a real shame. Now because of the Internet, it's really a cat or a dog. I call myself a reporter; I now finally understand why Lan Li always feels so at ease every time he confronts a reporter."

The ridicule swarming from all directions left the reporter with no room for rebuttal. In the end, he gritted his teeth severely, and then turned away griefly.

In Vanity Fair, media reporters are the tails that can never be thrown off, and they are always annoying and even hateful; but from another perspective, media reporters are also an indispensable part of the spotlight, they can become a mirror , Projecting the current situation and future of every person in the industry.

It's not just the superficial phenomena of popularity and popularity; at the same time, it is also from the thinking and exploration within the industry.

Even in the Internet age, the title of "Uncrowned King" has existed in name only, but the role of reporters is still irreplaceable.

This time too.

The airport pick-up team at JFK Airport in New York is so large, and they have also raised many questions. In fact, this also shows the status quo of Renly in the entire film industry-those questions are definitely not just casual mentions. The "New Yorker" magazine published an in-depth special article, which can be seen as a microcosm of the internal thinking of the entire industry.

This article from the Chinese-American blogger and film critic Emily Chen launched an analysis report from a relatively objective perspective.

The whole article is full of eloquence, from the Oliver Award to the possibility of the Tony Award achieving EGOT, from the Cannes actor to the possibility of Venice becoming the actor's Grand Slam, from "transcendence" to "burst drummer" selection of works... After an analysis of her career, Emily put forward a very realistic, very common and very sharp point of view——

"Is Lanly Hall, who will turn 24 in November this year, is heading towards a dead end step by step?"

This is not an attack, but an evaluation.

In the article, Emily uses Marlon Brando and Nicole Kidman as examples to analyze Renly's career choices.

Marlon Brando is undoubtedly one of the top actors in the golden age of Hollywood. Between 1950 and 1960, that is, between the ages of 26 and 36, Marlon conquered Hollywood four times in a row. A total of five nominations for the best actor Oscar, both acting and box office win-win, he was the absolute top star at the time.

But after entering the sixties, he faced the biggest crisis of his career.

In the entire twelve years, only one work of "The Mutiny on Blood" can be considered a successful work, but the long filming cycle and expensive production costs of this film have overwhelmed MGM Films, and a subsequent film The lawsuit made Malone become eccentric, lonely, taciturn, and almost isolated from the world.

At that time, he became cynical and became the most famous "wave/son" in Hollywood.

He once founded a film company and planned to let Stanley Kubrick to direct a new work, but the two had different personalities. They had serious differences during the script creation stage, and fierce quarrels broke out. In angrily, Malone expelled Kubu. Rick, the film company also declared a failure shortly afterwards. For three full years, he almost disappeared completely.

After entering the 1970s, no one thought that Ma Long, who had been declared a box office poison, would return to his former glory. In 1972, when he was forty-eight years old, he took over the filming of "The Godfather". He not only promised a salary of 250,000 US dollars-about a fraction of the previous one, but even agreed to an insulting audition for an actor of his level.

As a result, this work achieved unparalleled great success, and helped him win the second Oscar statuette.

After that, works such as "The Last Tango in Paris" and "Apocalypse Now" have become classics.

Nicole Kidman also did the same. In 2002, a movie called "All the Time" successfully made her top the Oscars, after which her career fell into a state of confusion.

Subsequent "Lengshan" and "Dog Town" also received good feedback, but the box office of works such as "Copying Your Wife", "A Fairy Wife", "Golden Compass" and other works collapsed, making her wear the "Box Office" After that, she returned to the field of independent film and embarked on a path of no return in art films~www.novelhall.com~Australia in troubled times", "Nine", "Rabbit Hole" ", "Newsboy", "Stoke", "Princess of Monaco", "Queen of the Desert", "Mysterious Eyes"... You can see Nicole in the awards season almost every year, but from In 2008, I started rushing all the way to 2016, just like a ghost hitting a wall, continuously spinning around in place.

It wasn't until 2017 that the TV series "Big and Small Lies" gave her a second spring in her career.

In 2013 in Emily's article, Nicole was still in a career trough and never saw the light of hope.

The common point of the two actors, Ma Long and Nicole, is that after creating the peak of their careers, they lost their future direction. They began to pick up their horns in the selection of works. The exhaustion of artistic creativity caused them to fall into a dead end. They went around and couldn't grasp it. A clear direction eventually fell into a long and painful trough.

There is no doubt that these two are excellent actors, but they have both experienced a low period of about ten years, and the road to rejuvenating the new year is extremely difficult.

Now Lanli seems to be facing the same situation.

After the great success of "Love Is Crazy", Lan Li's work selection began to become paranoid, "Anti-Cancer Me", "Transcendence", "Drunk Country Folk Songs", "Gravity" and the stage version of "Les Miserables" "Wait, almost all continue a routine: on the level of extreme performance, it is gone forever, except for the "Edge of Tomorrow", everything is like this.

Now, Lan Li has once again chosen an independent work like "Burst Drummer", which also means that he is repeating the same mistakes and embarking on the road of Malone and Nicole again. This is what Emily is most worried about. 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit everyone's reading academy
