The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)

Chapter 44



Chapter 44 Public debut

The concept of    premiere was born a long time ago, but it was not given a special meaning until after the global simultaneous premiere of “Star Wars”.

Prior to this, the premiere was just a public occasion to tell all the audience that “a new movie is officially released”, which was concise and clear; now, the premiere is a highly commercialized ceremony, and the rich crew even spends money on it. Tens of millions of dollars to create a premiere, inviting reporters, inviting celebrities, and inviting enthusiastic fans, truly turning the premiere into a show, becoming an important part of the public relations process, and contributing to the commercial harvest of the work. Out pave the way.

Considering that the levels of TV dramas and movies are far apart, only HBO TV has held premieres for TV dramas worldwide, and only the two works of “The Brotherhood” and “The Pacific War”; not only that, but the ceremony was also selected. The most popular and biggest premiere venue in Hollywood, the Chinese/National Theater. The industry appeal of the two big names Tom and Steven can be seen.

However, these are all strengths on paper. After all, I heard that there is still not enough realism. When the grand scene at the entrance of China/National Theater came into view, Lan Li really understood the meaning of this premiere.

Sitting in the black stretched sedan sent by HBO TV station, looking out the window, the mighty crowd stood on the crosswalk on both sides of Hollywood Boulevard. The spacious four-lane road was blocked by iron railings and became a two-lane, dense The crowds crowded the two sides of the road so that there were at least 700 or 800 people.

The crowd held the stills and posters of the “Brother Company” in their hands, and they were full of sight, which made people deeply feel that even after nine years have passed, this series is still very popular. Occasionally, you can see the propaganda posters of the “Pacific War”, but there are not many character posters, and they are almost submerged in the familiar faces of the “Brothers Company”.

After passing by the Kodak Theater and the Captain Theater, the iconic temple roof of the Chinese/National Theater appears within sight. A red carpet less than fifty yards is laid between the two stone lions at the entrance. Paved across the road all the way, as the most distinctive landmark in Hollywood, the Chinese/National Theater not only embodies Westerners’ understanding of Chinese/Chinese culture, but also becomes the number one venue for major premieres. The handprints and signatures of excellent filmmakers are gathered on the concrete floor at the door, which contrasts with the stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in front of them.

At this time, on both sides of the red carpet, countless reporters were standing neatly and full of people. Rows of neatly arranged cannon barrels were aimed at the catwalk passage in the center, and the lineup of more than sixty reporters crammed their sights. The water can’t leak, the huge and hollow shots are like the mouths of behemoths, opening their blood basins and mouths, ready to swallow everything that appears in front of them.

The heat from all over the sky is rushing forward, the turbulent crowd is like a thousand horses, and you can clearly hear the clang of the golden horse and iron horse. The magnificence and magnificence of Hollywood are slowly unfolding in front of you like a picture scroll.

This is just the premiere of a TV series.

Taking a deep breath, Lan Li opened the car door and stepped on the soft red carpet with both feet. The soles of the feet couldn’t help but exerted a little force. Feeling the realism of the down-to-earth, he raised his hands to button up the suit buttons and straightened his waist. , And then stepped forward, embarking on his first trip to the red carpet.

At this time, the red carpet is already very lively. Not far away, you can see David Nutt and Jon Seda just walking up the roadside steps. The reporter on the left stopped the two people and proceeded with a brief briefing. During the interview, apparently they arrived at the scene just before Renly.

The red carpet on the right is hot at this moment, Ron-Livingston, Donnie-Wahlberg, Kirk-Acevedo and others They were all surrounded by the “Brother Company” team, and I did not expect to attend the premiere today.

Amidst the crowd, I stumbled upon the figure of Alexander-Skarsgard. Lan Li thought he was dazzled. He didn’t expect to see Anna-Paquin’s petite figure. The body, surrounded by reporters, showed a bright smile.

Lan Li just realized that another set of HBO’s popular drama “True Love is Like Blood”, the whole crew came together to join in.

Unfamiliar and familiar faces surging in front of him, Lan Li stepped on a steady pace to greet him, surrounded by the restlessness swarming from all directions, the ubiquitous crowds made it impossible to find a place to stay, and he couldn’t help but look around. After a week, Lan Li was groping for the red carpet technique—should he slow down and show himself? Or should I go to the side and party with the crowd? Or is it going to the front to communicate with reporters? Otherwise, go to the door of the theater and stand with the other comrades in the crew?

Without the guidance of his agent, Lan Li has the illusion of being out of place and at a loss, as if… as if the fans’ screams and shouts did not belong to him, as if the reporter’s initiative and initiative did not notice him, on the surging red carpet. , But he couldn’t blend into it, and the weird sense of loneliness swept across.

However, Lan Li’s footsteps did not panic, she still kept calm and moved forward in an orderly manner. I clearly understand that this is Hollywood and this is the real world. As a complete newcomer, let alone the audience, maybe even reporters can’t call his name, so this kind of treatment is really normal.

Thinking of this, the smile on the corner of his mouth slowly outlines, the awkward alienation gradually disappeared, and he began to gradually adapt to the atmosphere and rhythm of the red carpet. The feeling of standing under the spotlight is not bad.

Bradley-Adams has just finished an interview with David-Schwimmer, and a few reporters rushed over.

After the end of “Friends”, the actor’s career fell into silence. “The Company of Brothers” is his only well-known work. More often, he has now moved behind the scenes and attended the premiere today. , Everyone naturally hopes to dig out more news.

Bradley lowered his head to check the photos in his camera, flipped through it at random, then raised the lens again, aimed at the beginning of the red carpet, and waited for the next subject of interview value to appear. As a senior reporter for the entertainment section of the “New York Times”, his focus is naturally different from the entertainment gossip media such as “Entertainment Weekly”, “USA Today” and “TMZ”.

A tall man appeared in the camera. He wore a military green suit. Amidst the depressive tones of black and gray, he looked unique and outstanding. It also matched the theme of the “Pacific War”. The black shirt is docile, and it matches the suit naturally. The first button of the suit is buttoned up, which outlines the proportions of the wide-shouldered and bee-waisted figure. The slender legs easily grab the attention of the eye. ; A golden-brown, slightly curly short hair is combed into a retro two-eighth point with wax, the whole face is refreshed and sparsely presented in front of the eyes, the charm between gestures has a special charm, which cannot be accurately described in words.

If you want to say that this man is shockingly handsome, it is estimated that many reporters in the room will roll their eyes directly. Alexander Skarsgard, who also appeared on the red carpet, was the winner of the world’s second most **** man last year. Everyone The aesthetics are completely different, which is doomed to different angles of appreciation.

But Bradley couldn’t help but press the shutter in his hand, trying to use film to record the moment of time staying, as if…just like the moment when fireworks bloom, everyone likes the colorful fireworks, but understands The fleeting of fireworks, the extreme beauty makes people happy, but also embarrassing.

Who is this?

Bradley has question marks in his mind, but the shutter in his hand can’t stop at all. When he realized that the person had already passed his head, he subconsciously yelled, “Wait.” There is no title, no object, the other party will naturally not stop, and the noise around him swallows Bradley in a blink of an eye. the sound of.

“You are here!” Lamy, who was already standing at the entrance of the theater, quickly greeted him and gave Lan Li a big hug excitedly, “I was just thinking about when you will arrive.”

Today, Lamy wore a three-piece suit, very formal, black suit, black waistcoat, black tie, and white shirt. UUwww.uukanshu.com is a typical standard dress for formal occasions, but the use of the waistcoat is still costly. Some clever ideas.

Seeing Lamy’s serious appearance, Lan Li couldn’t help but laughed, “You look like you are going to be in court.” The ridiculous words made Lamy roll his eyes helplessly, and he didn’t wait for Lamy’s response. There was a voice, “Rami, Rami!”

Bradley quickly passed through the team of his colleagues and walked to Lamy’s side. Since there were no reporters around who cared about Lan Li’s identity, Bradley’s actions were effortless—the scene was too lively and too lively. It’s messed up. Even though the appearance of a strange face like Lan Li is somewhat attractive, this is Hollywood. Everyone’s appearance has its own characteristics. How could reporters care? Even Marilyn-Monroe (Marilyn-Monroe) has experienced a long period of almost five years after debut.

“Lami, won’t you introduce me to this one?” Bradley asked quickly.

Rami doesn’t know Bradley, but he recognizes the “New York Times” logo on Bradley’s backpack. He smiles, “Ramley Hall, one of the three leading actors in our series.”

A brief introduction made Bradley suddenly realize that the newcomer, the newcomer without any performance experience, the rumored name finally matched himself, Bradley’s eyes couldn’t help but the newcomer was caught Steven fancy, as the leading actor in the “Pacific War”, can be described as flying into the sky. News highlights came out immediately.

However, before Bradley continued to speak, there was an out-of-control scream at the beginning of the red carpet, and everyone glanced over: Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg arrived on the scene. Up!
