205 Whispering
"Lance, after filming a work like "City of God", he immediately filmed a completely different work. Do you have any special thoughts?" Since it was a screening ceremony, Allen, as the host, was more of a scene. After a simple interview, he handed over the right to ask questions to the reporters on the scene. The first question was obviously expected.`
Lance had already prepared for such a question. He joked with a smile, "If I had said that I actually used the 'City of God' as a commercial movie at the beginning, so there was no difference between the two works, and no one would believe it." This sentence caused a burst of laughter from the scene, "But I must admit that the use of computer special effects in the 'day acquired' is a brand new field, which is obviously not an easy task. Maybe if I have the chance, I should ask Robert-zemeckis for advice." There was a burst of applause again.
The director who filmed "Forrest Gump" and after finishing the filming of "The Rest of the Desert Island", he devoted himself to the research of motion capture technology and was determined to contribute to the film's digital stunt exhibition. He is famous in Hollywood. Many people joked that Robert was "crazy". This year, the "Polar Express" filmed by Robert completely using motion capture technology will be released in November and has attracted much attention.
Lance's words were obviously a bit ridiculous in humor.
However, Lance's answer was obviously to avoid the question positively and did not intend to respond in a straightforward manner, which obviously made some people dissatisfied. So the question came again, "Not long ago, Brad Pitt mentioned in an interview that he thought you were not qualified to direct 'Troy'. What do you think about this?"
Lance looked over the sound and now the same reporter as the previous question was the same. This reporter was not an unknown person. He is Cliff Robinson, a senior entertainment reporter for the Los Angeles Times. When he was at Diorama Pictures, Lance had a few dealings with him. Cliff and Tucker had a good personal relationship - after all, Los Angeles is the base camp of Diorama Pictures and has been working hard for six years. The connections are still very solid.
Cliff's question was obviously trying to sow discord and create more topical gimmicks. In fact, Brad's interview with Percy mentioned to Lance, when Brad said that when he answered "Is Wolfgang Peterson the most suitable director of "Troy"? Maybe Peter Jackson or Lancelot Strello would be the better choice." His original words were "I don't think Lance is suitable for directing "Troy". Obviously, Wolfgang is the best choice."
It can be heard that Brad was consciously targeting Lance - he did not mention Peter Jackson, but he did a good job on the surface. After all, an actor who came to Brad's height would rarely break up in front of the media unless he really didn't deal with it, because it also had an impact on his image.
Cliff's out-of-context approach is a typical way for journalists to create conflicts, which is an obvious trap. Whether in the first or second life, Lance has seen many times in major news media, and he can see through Cliff's true intentions at once. However, Lance does not intend to go around.
The reporter is using him, but isn’t he using the reporter?
"Luckily, he is not the one who has the lifeline of the economy of 'acquired' cost budget'. I think." Lance's teasing made many people chuckled. Alan had already planned to stand up and help Lance clear the situation. When he encountered such a difficult problem at the Ying ceremony, this was not a good thing for Ying's celebration atmosphere, but he did not expect that Lance's simple words resolved the attack, which made Alan feel a little relieved.
But Allen was shocked immediately. Because Lance immediately said, "But personally, Brad is not the best candidate to play Achilles in my mind." This sentence was said. Everyone was stunned, not only because of Lance's positive response, but also because of Lance's extraordinary view - after "Troy" confirmed that Brad was led by Brad, almost everyone thought that Achilles played by Brad was the perfect choice. But now...
Cliff, who was standing under the stage, suddenly became excited, but he felt something was wrong in his heart. But at this time he couldn't care, because Lance stepped into a trap as planned, and this was the perfect beginning!
Lance seemed to have not noticed the sensation created by his words, and shrugged, "Brad is a very good actor, but he is more suitable for Apollo than Achilles. In addition, in Homer's epic, Achilles died before he broke through Troy, but obviously, if he played Achilles, the screenwriter would not have let him leave halfway through the movie, which is a very tricky thing for the screenwriter."
Lance's seemingly plain words were actually disgusting Brad's "fame burden" and dragging down the quality of the entire script of "Troy". But this meaning was hidden very deeply. For a moment, everyone could feel something was wrong, but they couldn't say a reason. Then Lance continued to say, "Besides, 'Troy' already has Orlando Bloom and Diane Kruger, right? So, fortunately, I'm not the one who masters the fate of "Troy' casting."
This sentence is absolutely meaningful - Orlando and Diane are currently considered representatives of vases, so what Lance means...?
Kaila, who was standing next to her, understood immediately, turned to look at Lance, and an indescribable smile appeared between her eyebrows; while Alan suppressed the urge to laugh out loud, stood by her seriously, pretending that she didn't understand what was happening.
The joy between Cliff's eyebrows was already hard to suppress. He even thought about the title of the front page headline tomorrow, "Lancelot: Brad is a vase and is not worthy of playing an epic hero". Such a sensational title will inevitably cause a series of chain reactions, and the gunpowder smell between "After acquired" and "Troy" will become more and more surging, and the summer battle is absolutely worthy of its name!
Thinking of this, Cliff temporarily calmed down. Many times, fanning the flames needed to stop, and all the words were explained clearly, but it was not that exciting. However, Cliff relaxed, and someone began to come forward to raise trouble not far away. "Lance, the release of the 'day acquired day' will face a serious situation. The next week' will be released, which will have a strong impact on the box office of the movie. For the 'day acquired day', the pressure on the box office is also very huge. Many people think that the box office of the movie will be a disaster. Do you feel worried about this?"
The box office issue, the highlights that the screening ceremony will never be missing. However, the pronunciation and tone of the problem came poorly. Cliff leaned over and looked over. It was Brian Barlow of the "San Francisco Chronicle", which made Cliff smile at the corner of his mouth and began to appreciate the good show.
Lance's eyes fell slightly on Brian's body, and then he jumped over, as if he didn't realize that the guy in front of him was the enemy who had repeatedly provoked on Oscar Night. Not only that, Lance even showed a calm smile on his lips and nodded, "Indeed, this is indeed a disaster."
Such an opening remark was actually weak. This made everyone feel a little unprepared, but then Lance changed his tone, "'Troy' is also a disaster, isn't it?" After saying this, Lance deliberately paused, and even the sound of gasping in the air could be clearly heard at the scene. Many viewers looked at Lance in surprise, and their faces were wondering: Why did the style suddenly change?
Lance seemed to have not noticed the waves he created at all, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "'After day' is a disaster that predicts the future.' Troy' is a disaster that speculates on the past. So, I think disaster is not a problem that we should worry about, and the future is not a problem that we can worry about."
Lance cleverly changed the meaning of Brian's question and responded. But Lance obviously had something in his words, sarcasticizing "Troy" that he was now thinking of a big box office victory, which was completely arrogant. No one can predict what has not happened in the future, and the box office trend is not simple "one plus one equals two". Following the formula on paper will inevitably lead to the correct answer.
Everyone knows this. But when Lance points out this, the "Troy" crew is caught in an instant.
Brian could sense the deep meaning of Lance's words, but he was obviously unwilling to give up, so he continued to ask, "Does this mean that you have enough confidence in the box office of the movie?"
Lance narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Brian carefully. Just when everyone thought Lance was about to become popular next, Lance burst into laughter, "Can I ask this way, did I attend today's screening ceremony with confidence of a box office defeat?"
In an instant, Brian's rudeness and rudeness were fully exposed in Lance's words, and the audience burst into laughter. The shocking laughter seemed to be the most direct mockery of Bryan. This made Bryan clench his fists and glar at Lance fiercely.
In fact, similar to Brian's questions, many reporters will ask. The crew only needs to answer some official polite words to make it happen. But Lance obviously does not want Brian to succeed. A simple counterattack makes Brian seem to have no professional qualities as a reporter.
"Very good, very good, very good." Allen's voice finally found a gap and inserted it in. The brief confrontation at the scene was full of tension. The verbal and verbal that could detonate the volcano at any time made the "day-afternoon" stable screening ceremony ushered in the highlights again. Tonight's accident was really one after another. "You can feel that everyone's expectations for the movie "day-afternoon" were already so lively. Kevin Hart and Michael Fassbender, who had just walked on the red carpet, were a little at a loss."
Silently, Allen dissolved the sharp atmosphere and at the same time led the topic to the two actors who had just stepped on the red carpet. Everyone at the scene diverted their attention, while Lance's gaze and Brian had a slight contact in the air, and sparks burst out for a short half second. Then both of them looked away and diverted their attention.
Cliff, who was standing aside, smiled slightly.
