While talking, the subway arrived.
Lan Li and Andy walked out of the subway station together. This time, Andy did not continue to follow Lan Li, but stopped by the road.
Lan Li took another two steps forward, only to realize that Andy was left behind. Turning around, Andy’s kind smile came into view, "So, what do you think, I will take care of your future. Planning the movie journey.” After the long talk just now and after two meetings, Andy clearly and accurately expressed his intentions for the first time, “I am a top agent, and I have something that ordinary people can’t touch. Resources, I have professional knowledge and blueprint planning, give me three years, I promise you can become a real top star. You know what I mean by "star"."
Full of self-confidence, unhurried, and even with some humor, Andy showed all the charm of an agent.
At this moment, there are several black people passing by. They should be on their way to work, watching Lan Li and Andy standing face to face at the exit of the subway station. One is in a straight suit, the other is street-dressed, and the other looks like a Wall Street elite. A hip-hop person who looks like a passionate graffiti art looks like a lawyer and a bad boy who frequently enters and exits the juvenile office. With such a normal and abnormal combination, almost everyone involuntarily cast their sights.
Especially Andy's gesture of slamming Fang Qiu has attracted a lot of attention-it is like looking at a neurosis.
Lan Li couldn't help but chuckled, "Do you believe it? They must be looking for cameras around them now." In New York, there are countless street movies.
Andy spread his hands, his face full of calmness, without being taken away by Lan Li's jokes, waiting for Lan Li's answer wholeheartedly.
Lanly knows that Andy’s words are very convincing. It not only shows Andy’s business skills, negotiation skills and language organization skills are very good; but also shows Andy’s sincerity. Obviously he did his homework in advance. , Has studied the recent trends and preferences of Lan Li.
From these two points alone, Andy has stood out from all the agents who have contacted him so far. Coupled with the background of an innovative artist agency, Lan Li has no reason to reject Andy.
If it was someone else, I would have nodded directly, but Lan Li is not someone else.
The two worlds are humans, and Lanly clearly knows that the talks are very messy in the negotiation, but the actual actions are very different. Hollywood is an extremely realistic circle. If it is profitable, it will control the right to speak, and it can be thrown away when it is used. The Hollywood reality reflected in films such as "Sunset Boulevard" and "Comet Beauty" is just the tip of the iceberg.
For most people, the agent can be changed at any time. They can first sign an agent, and after one step to the sky, then get rid of the agent. There is no problem at all; but Lan Li does not want this, because he is clear His goal and the selection of works also have a clear concept, so he hopes to find a suitable partner, and then go on with each other.
It can be said that he is idealistic, it can be said that he is cautious, or it can be said that he is overpowered. However, Lan Li wanted to test it again.
"I am a very picky person." Lan Li said, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose a little, "Or to be more precise, I am a very troublesome person."
"Oh? How to say?" Andy's interest came up, and he asked with interest.
Lan Li shrugged, "For example, I don't like to sign a packaging agreement and sell myself to Marvel in one breath;" This made Andy laugh out loud, "For another example, I will want to challenge something out of the ordinary. The role is likely to break the image burden.” This is also the biggest difference between Renly and Tom Hanks, Brad Pitt and others.
In Hollywood, if you want to reach the pinnacle, you must become a beautifully packaged "commodity". What you can do and what you can't do, what independent movies can accept and what commercial movies can not accept, this is all carefully planned.
"Also, occasionally I would like to enjoy my own free time." Lan Li raised the skateboard in his hand, and everything said nothing.
Things are getting more and more interesting, Andy thinks.
Newcomers like Lanly who have not proven themselves, Hollywood throws a brick casually and countless, just a "Pacific War", the problem that can be explained is too limited, even if it is proved in "Friends" like David Hume It’s not easy to be an actor and then to prove yourself and develop a career.
In other words, Lan Li does not have many chips, but he is still so picky. Andy has personally visited the door twice before and after, which has shown enough sincerity. As a result, Lan Li is still picky, if it is other Broker, he had already overturned the table and left.
So, is Lan Li narcissistic and stupid, or full of confidence? Is it pretentious, or is it due to strength? Is it for fame or reputation, or is it determined?
From a positive perspective, such people are often clear about what they want, with clear goals and full concentration. They can go further on the road of exploration. As long as they are given opportunities to shine, they can reach higher levels. Limits; from the perspective of negative news, such people are either too stupid and swallowed up by the Hollywood wave in a blink of an eye, or too stubborn and rigid, too easy to break.
Which kind of blue gift is in front of me?
Andy is also making judgments, but his expression does not show his mood at all. He just smiles and says, "Sometimes, self-confidence is a good thing. But if you have too much self-confidence, it becomes arrogant. Two The boundary between the people is weaker than ordinary people think."
The ridicule did not irritate Lan Li, but instead made him laugh, and the smile on the corner of his mouth revealed playfulness, "I think every actor needs to be narcissistic, and even must be a little arrogant, otherwise he will live under the spotlight every day. , Accepting praise, accepting criticism, accepting cheers, accepting curses, and even looking at their ubiquitous faces in their lives, they are already crazy."
did not refute, but confessed. Andy nodded his affirmation, "So most actors are always defiant, especially those from British academies." This innuendo irony is really sharp.
Lan Li closed his jaw politely and accepted the evaluation calmly, then raised the skateboard in his hand and pointed to the direction behind, "I'm going to be late for the game this morning. Then, see you next time," "After finishing speaking, Lan Li threw the skateboard to the ground, stepped on it lightly, and galloped away to face the sun. The slender figure was swallowed by the eyes in a blink of an eye.
Andy stayed in place, watching Lan Li leave carefully.
Although he did not achieve his goal directly today, Andy has gained a lot, and his understanding of Lan Li has gone further. To be honest, among contemporary actors, he could not find any suitable reference object. Although Edward Norton is somewhat similar, Edward's personality lacks some of the spirited unrestrained and arrogant.
A blue gift like is more like... Marlon Brando, a talented, arrogant, defiant, wild and unrestrained, talented Marlon Brando. It's just that Ma Long's publicity is exuded, and the radiance is so bright that people can't look directly at it; but Lan Li is restrained, only slowly approaching, can slowly dig out, the arrogance that settles in the bones is mixed to the temperament. In it, a special charm that is indescribable has been bred.
Andy not only was not disappointed, but became more curious. Is Lan Li a genius or a mediocre?
Many times, geniuses are always defiant, even arrogant, because they can see things that ordinary people can't see, they stand at a height that ordinary people can't reach, and they insist on the truth that will be discovered in the next few decades. , So this is doomed to be incompatible with the surrounding society.
But genius and mediocrity are only separated by a thin line. For mediocrities, their illusion of arrogance has become the beginning of destruction. The strength and confidence cannot be matched, the vision and the background cannot match, and the ending is doomed from the beginning.
If they are geniuses, their strength will always be able to crush their opponents with a higher skill. Even if they are repelled, jealous, hated, and suppressed, they will not be able to annihilate their brilliance; but if they are mediocre, in reality Under the collision of life, they will die faster than the average person, especially in a circle of stars like Hollywood—
As Lan Li said, every Hollywood practitioner is like this, more or less narcissistic and even arrogant. The rejection and competition between each other has made this vanity fair sharper and bloodier.
So, where's Renly? Is it the condescending power caused by strength, or the extreme stupidity caused by high heart and shortness of breath.
Originally Andy was already preparing to leave, but he hesitated for a moment, he still followed, and stopped outside the skateboarding ground, watching Lan Li's every move.
At this moment, Lan Li is warming up next to him, concentrating, as if all the noise around him has disappeared, and the world is only left with the sport of skateboarding. His focused look gives the illusion that this is a World Series—but only It's just a skateboarding competition in one block.
For many people, they may sneer, "It's just a small game in a block, so why do you value it?" They will think Lan Li's behavior is extremely absurd, even ridiculous; but the kind of full-hearted concentration, but It is the key to success—this is something most people don’t have, so there will always be only a small number of people standing on top.
When Lan Li was about to play, Andy turned and left instead. He knew that Lan Li needed some time to consider, and he also needed some time to think about it. Regardless of his own position, Andy really looks forward to it, looking forward to Renly's breakthrough in Hollywood, looking forward to the height of Renly's ultimate challenge, whether it will be annihilated by everyone or shine on the top of the world.
Is it a genius or a lunatic?
