535 Humiliation

"Emma, ​​do you know why Lance didn't bring his female companion to the premiere today? Was it because he had a fight with his female companion?"

Brian Barlow was like holding a lollipop to seduce an innocent and ignorant underage girl, his eyes flashed brightly, and he handed the microphone to Emma with a sincere look on his face.

Facing this question, Emma was suddenly stunned. This was just the first time she had faced a reporter. She didn't know what to do. She didn't even know why the reporter asked this question. Subconsciously, she began to think, is the answer yes or no?

"This pervert." Lance's sarcastic voice suddenly penetrated in and made a swearing bluntly, which made Brian's face turn blue. He couldn't believe that Lance was swearing in public, which was extremely vulgar. However, Lance didn't care about Brian's cannibalism at all, nor did he care about the astonished and excited eyes of all the reporters around him. Then he said, "What is it that wrongly guided a minor girl who was on the red carpet for the first time? If you are curious about the answer to this question, you can ask me."

Brian Barlow, of course, Lance recognized who he was, and always looked for trouble in public interviews. Although he had never asked about his name, this information could be found in newspapers. Especially on Oscar Night, Lance became even more impressed after learning about the twists and turns.

Brian was so sarcastic by Lance, his cheeks became cold and hot. Even though thick-skinned as a reporter was a basic skill, his behavior of inducing a child was indeed untenable, so the anger in his chest was already rolling. He still held back his emotions and handed the microphone to Lance, "So, why didn't you bring your female companion to the premiere today?"

In an instant, all the reporters' eyes fell on Lance. According to inside news, Lance and Jessica seem to have many unfinished stories. When "City of Sin" selected the heroine, Jessica was the first candidate for Lance, and even eliminated several other famous actresses. If there is no trick between the two, it is absolutely impossible.

Lance's eyes calmly met Brian's gaze. He could even feel the pride in Brian's eyes. His eyes never moved. He stared at Brian's eyes tightly and said word by word, "This is my personal matter, I refuse to answer."

Brian gritted his teeth tightly, his cheeks instantly congested, like a blood bag that could explode at any time. Shame, this is definitely a shame!

Lance took the initiative to take the question on himself, allowing Brian to divert the target of attack. Even if Lance would not answer directly, he should at least have some polite words or humor around, just like Lance was on the Oscar red carpet. But Lance disdained to do this, and directly refused head-on, refusing with determination, leaving no room for anything. If so, just pull Emma away from the scene, so why did he ask Brian to ask a question?

The only reason Lance did this was to humiliate Brian.

Brian wanted to rush up and punch Lance hard, and his muscles couldn't help but start to tremble slightly because they were too tight. The reporters around him did not stop him, but instead looked at the show, thinking about how to fan the flames and make the show even more exciting, so that their front-page headlines would be settled, but at this moment, a voice came from beside him, "I am Lance's female companion!"

After slapping, everyone's eyes looked at the source of the sound. Even Lance turned his head in surprise. Emma, ​​wearing a short mint blue skirt, straightened her waist and looked at the reporters in front of her confidently and energetic, with a bright smile on her lips, "I am a female companion, am I not? Or am I a male companion?" Emma raised her head and threw a puzzled look at Lance.

Lance was stunned for a moment, and a smile gently bloomed from the corner of his mouth, like the first ray of morning light that broke through the night.

Emma only felt that her hands behind her were already wet with sweat. Faced with so many reporters' questions, she avoided her voice betrayed her inner tension, and had to clench her hands into fists and hold them behind her waist. Now it seems that she is doing well, isn't she?

Emma raised her chin slightly, looked at the reporters in front of her again, and said with a smile, "If you confirm that I am not a male companion, then if you have any questions, please feel free to communicate with me." The reporters could not help but chuckle, and the tense atmosphere at the scene suddenly relaxed.

Literally speaking, any two people who attend in pairs can become the other party's "one plus one". Some people choose to attend with their own family, such as their mother, and then the mother is his female companion that night. Therefore, Emma's interpretation is not wrong. But the problem is that the "female companion" that reporters are curious about is a partner with special significance. They cannot refute Emma now, so they can only choose to give up.

"Lance!" Just as the atmosphere at the scene was eased, Brian's voice sounded again, and all his eyes were focused on him. "You have achieved excellent box office results in both works in the past. You have also been released in major theaters. So are you worried that the box office of Sin City will not meet expectations?"

The first half of the sentence is praise, but the second half of the question feels that the taste is wrong. You can ask "What are your expectations for the box office of the movie?" But Brian asked the question in the form of a negative sentence, and the intention of provocation is self-evident.

In fact, this is exactly the question that everyone is curious about. Not only journalists, but also major film companies, industry practitioners, and box office experts are curious about this question: How much box office can "Sin City" achieve? Lance has achieved three consecutive victories in his works, and three home runs have become the brightest scenic spot in Hollywood. So can he continue to continue this momentum?

After choosing to release the screening in April, "City of Sin" obviously has no direct relationship with the awards season, so it can only be seen at the box office. Therefore, this is also a core issue that cannot be avoided at the premiere, but no one expected that it would be raised in such a way in this situation.

So, how should Lance answer?

"You are obviously worried that tomorrow's newspapers will not have headlines, which will lead to poor sales." Lance's answer was wrong, which made everyone stunned. Then he heard a burst of laughter and broke the calm. All eyes were cast, and Javier Urial was immediately exposed to his eyes.

Javier realized that he had become the focus of attention and said loudly, "I will buy a San Francisco Chronicle tomorrow to express my support." A simple mockery made everyone around him burst into laughter. Brian stood there and felt his whole body trembling because he was too angry!

"San Francisco Chronicle." Lance nodded meaningfully, as if he knew Brian was working in the unit at this time. "This reporter who doesn't know his name, please rest assured that I will not buy the San Francisco Chronicle tomorrow." After saying that, Lance nodded seriously, affirmed his words, and then ignored Brian's almost bursting eyes and turned to look at the other reporters, "I must please some audiences, otherwise if the movie tickets tonight cannot be sold, tomorrow's headlines will be a disaster, for me."

Then, Lance looked down at Emma and signaled her to go first. The two continued to move forward, leaving only the reporters who were amused and crying at the scene. They reacted at this time and shouted loudly, "Lance!" They still had many questions but they didn't have time to ask questions, but Lance could no longer call back, which made the reporters feel extremely worried.

Brian deeply felt the sense of shame and heartfelt. Lance didn't know his name yet? This was not the first time that two people had confronted each other. This was obviously not the first time that Lance despised him? This humiliation in public made him extremely angry, but his brain calmed down. He had already thought of tomorrow's headline title, "Sensationalism! The quality of the new work is terrible. Lancelot is willing to show off his talents and eloquence to save the precarious box office!"

This title will be very sensational. Brian has already started to think a lot. From the promotional method of "Sin City" to the trailer's performance, it seems that every aspect can be the target of attack. This makes Brian excited. He will make Lance feel it once: What is Christmas!

Lance could feel Emma's eyes going back and forth, as if he was worried, and seemed a little excited, but he did not intend to answer Emma, ​​and directly ignored the exploration in Emma's sight, and just said with a smile, "You can go in the infield first. There are probably many people inside, and Sebastian is also inside."

"But" Emma Yi looked at Lance reluctantly, then looked at the noise on the red carpet, and there was still a lot of things to say, but Lance did not give her a chance, but made an invitation gesture, which made Emma's footsteps involuntarily move forward in the persistent gaze, "Hey, Emma, ​​you're here!" Sebatisian just came out at this time and ran over happily.

Emma greeted Sebastian happily. Emma should have felt at ease when she saw Sebastian on such an occasion, but she was a little absent-minded and couldn't help but turn her head again to look for Lance's figure, but at this moment she could only see Lance's back and walked towards another corner with steady steps.

"Emma, ​​hurry up, come in with me. There are countless top brands here today." Sebastian's voice came over, and Emma had to withdraw her gaze, take a deep breath, and then showed a bright smile: She has been waiting for this day for a long time, so now is the time to enjoy! To be continued.
