321 The Ins and Outs
Dorothy saw the chaos in front of her, and Lance who was rigorous and calm in the chaos.
The mess around that was too late to clean up looked like a pile of waste paper, and even the smell of ink could be smelled in the air, making people unable to help but retreat; but the man sat in the middle so calmly and casually, as if all this was taken for granted. The dark blue shirt was meticulously taken care of, and even the small folds on the cuffs disappeared, gently outlining a trace of bookish elegance. The clear and transparent morning sunshine penetrated the floor-to-ceiling window, and the subtle dust was flying happily, outlining the man's outline. The azure blue eyes slowly raised, and the flow of time and space suddenly fell into stagnation.
The memories deep in Dorothy's mind were suddenly awakened. After the Oscars, a senior public relations person once sighed to Dorothy that Lancelot-Stralo is like God's darling, and the temperament and charm that even time can't help but stop is simply intoxicating.
"I have only seen three such men in my life, Malone Brando and Montgomery Clift." This is the original words of Pat-Kesley, the strong woman who is recognized as the number one public relations in Hollywood. The third choice is naturally self-evident.
Pat, who is nearly seventy years old, has brought Clint Eastwood, Gwyneth Paltrow, Al Pacino, Julia Roberts, Jane Fonda, Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise, who are legendary figures in the entire public relations industry. She can be regarded as half of Dorothy's mentor. She has studied under Pat for many years. At the beginning of this year, in order to reduce her workload, Pat resigned as Lee/An's agent and introduced Dorothy to Lee/An. She asked her to take over his public relations affairs.
When he heard Pat say this, Dorothy didn't care. He thought Pat's vision was too retro. Malone and Montgomery were both typical representatives of Hollywood's golden age, but now it is obviously no longer the 1960s. However, today Dorothy suddenly understood what Pat said.
"So, what's going on?" A lazy voice sounded politely and calmly, and the slight friction sound was indescribable. Dorothy realized that she was actually stunned for a moment, which made her mouth a self-deprecating smile. She had forgotten that when was the last time she lost her composure?
Cole took his eyes off Dorothy. He originally planned to recommend and introduce the two people. But unexpectedly, Lance skipped this part. Cole was just a little stunned, and then reacted. Lance was taking the initiative in this way.
Cole was curious again in an instant. Does Lance really care about these so-called top agents and public relations people? Although Lance's previous two works have been successful, objectively speaking, without the help of a professional team, it is almost impossible for Lance to take a step closer without the help of a professional team - every industry has its own rules for operation. Hollywood is no exception. So why did Lance never lower his posture? Whether it was him, Dorothy, or even Terence Cox.
Ignorance? Arrogant and arrogant? Being arrogant?
These are obviously not the answers. But Cole didn't have time to think deeply. Because he no longer had the energy to take care of Dorothy, he had to cheer up. Cole simply reinterpreted the situation, and at the end, he brought Dorothy out again and introduced her role and role. This time Lance did not interrupt him. He listened quietly.
Lance supported his right elbow on his knee, and his slender fingertips supported his neck and rubbed it twice. His tired and lazy posture was like a baby cat who had just woken up, as if he had fallen into deep thoughts. He raised his index finger with distinct joints, gently touched the end of his eyebrows, and then his fingers stopped like this, supporting the eyebrows with his right hand. The sparse golden sunlight shot down, penetrated the knuckles that looked like bamboo joints, spilled down, and faintly depicted the contour of his face little by little.
No one spoke in the whole room, silent. Dorothy tried to interrupt, but couldn't bear to break the quiet and wonderful scene. All attention was involuntarily maintained on the every move of the man in front of him, and even his breathing gradually slowed down.
"So, the news is very lively?" Lance's fingers slowly slid down, his wide palm supported his chin, and raised his eyes to look at Cole.
Cole obviously didn't expect that Lance's first problem was this, "Uh...I think it's a report from the 'Los Angeles Times', and it's the entertainment page headline."
Dorothy's eyes were always locked on Lance's finger, then looked down with her wrist and arms, and couldn't help but outline the outline of the clavicle hidden under her shirt. This idea made Dorothy feel a little ridiculous. The smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't help but raise it gently. She adjusted her breathing with a smile, and finally calmed herself down again. She took over Cole's topic, "Yes, it's very lively. At present, the 'Los Angeles Times' has exclusive first-hand information, but after seeing it, other media hope to confirm it as soon as possible and then follow up the report."
Dorothy's words made everyone in the room look at it. This was the rhythm she was familiar with. She became more and more calm and confident in her speech. She took the initiative again. "At present, at least twenty media outlets hope to interview you or Kayla to verify this scandal. This was just an impact in one morning. As time progressed, the impact would become greater and greater. It is estimated that the heat of discussion would continue to rise."
Speaking of this, Dorothy paused for a moment, showed a confident smile, and a teasing slight joke in her joke, "Disney will not miss this opportunity. Or in other words, Jerry Brookheimer will not miss it." This is implying that "King Arthur" performed poorly at the box office.
Next, Dorothy can give her professional advice. She can make the scandal bigger and bigger, and make everyone pay attention to the scandal; she can also let people focus on Kaila, emphasizing that it is Kaila's initiative; she can also let "kill people with a knife" or "King Arthur" take advantage of this east wind to become the focus of attention; if you want to let the "day acquired" take advantage of the situation to recover again, this is also possible... The key is, what plan does Lance have?
Dorothy did not immediately show her trump card, but instead cast her eyes on Lance. She became more and more curious about this man who looked like a vase, because at this moment, a profound smile appeared on the corner of Lance's mouth, which was unpredictable.
"Very good, at least one thing has achieved the goal." As soon as Lance said this, Cole and Dorothy looked at each other subconsciously. How did this feeling of "being tricked" come out? Lance raised his head and looked at Percy and Edgar standing next to him, "You guys finish the final work first, it seems that there is a little problem here."
After saying that, Lance stood up, then walked to the sofa next to him, and politely sent an invitation, "Please sit." After Cole and Dorothy sat down, Lance explained, "This is the thing..." Lance briefly explained the causes and consequences of Dylan Wilde's breaking into the crew, but did not mention the matters of Penelope Cruz and Matthew McConaughey. "But I didn't expect such a result."
In fact, Lance anticipated that paparazzi was an uncontrollable factor, and it was impossible for things to be carried out completely according to his plan. But he ignored one thing: if he wanted to achieve the purpose of diverting attention and just publishing news, it was not enough. He should also use public relations resources to guide and complete the follow-up work.
From this we can see that Lance still lacks experience. During the filming of the two works, "City of God" and "After Day", they almost disappeared completely from the media's sight. Therefore, when facing an emergency, Lance still had loopholes in the plans he hastily produced.
"So... you arranged all this?" Cole felt that his brain was a little twitchy. Didn't these tasks be done by agents or public relations? Why did Lance have already taken care of all the work alone? This made Cole feel a sense of absurdity. He didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, but one thing that is certain is that Lance is definitely not a good person. If their cooperation collided with sparks, the future would be absolutely limitless...
Dorothy's first reaction was also surprising. She didn't expect Lance to have such ability. Dorothy thought carefully, what would she do if she encountered such a situation - directly buy the paparazzi's camera? No, this is not the right choice. First, the crew does not have much money, and second, this will arouse the enthusiasm of the paparazzi and focus on the crew more intensively.
Or is it to guide paparazzi to release other news, such as the scandal between Lance and Kate Beckinsale? No, the scandal between two actors from the crew of "Killing with Killing" can easily attract all their attention, which is contrary to the original intention.
Thinking about it carefully, although Lance's plan had loopholes, it was indeed the best choice in the situation at that time. This surprised Dorothy, even surprised. If she was given enough time, maybe she could do better, but in the critical moment, she did not think that Lance's choice was wrong.
Although Dorothy can't understand why Lance doesn't want paparazzi to pay attention to the crew of "killing with a knife"...
The man in front of him is definitely not a vase, not only is he not, but his appearance has even become a weapon, a weapon for people to underestimate his abilities and make wrong judgments. This man is far more than just smart, he is so dangerous...thrilling and exciting.
Dorothy knew that if she wanted to complete this collaboration, now would be her chance, so she spoke, "So, you mean, you don't care about the scandal, you just want to divert the focus and keep those paparazzi away from the crew?"
