Seeing Ryan's dazed look, Renly stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Four o'clock in the afternoon, don't remember the time, if I didn't see you on the red carpet, I would definitely Tell the reporter about you and Michelle."
"Buried Alive" is not a high-profile movie. Although Toronto is the first stop for the movie's world premiere, they don't get the highest treatment. The highlight of the premiere at 8 o'clock every night is completely wishful thinking. The premiere was arranged at At 4:30 in the afternoon, the red carpet starts at 4:00. After the broadcast, the reporters will rush to the main venue to participate in the North American premiere of "The Thief in the City" tonight.
Ryan gave Renly a middle finger without hesitation—he and Michelle were dating and said through gritted teeth, "You better not remember the time wrong, or you can't blame me."
After sending Ryan away, Renly walked to the small refrigerator in the room, and said the words of the morning, and now his throat is too dry, "Is everything going well on the journey?"
"It went well, it's just Toronto." Andy tried to find a spot on the sofa, looked left, looked right, and finally picked up the bathrobe, and found an empty seat, "Your life in Toronto is really Exciting, in just four days, I feel like I can’t keep up with the speed.”
"What?" Renly took a bottle of sleep and took a gulp down his throat. "Ah, you mean Ryan? A friend I accidentally made, it's a long story. I thought he was a Stiff and stiff guy, but after talking to it, Canadians are a lot more fun than I thought.”
"Of course, Ryan is part of it, but it's not the most important thing." Andy recalled the phone call just now, the amount of information was a bit large, he sorted it out a little, "Are you sure there is nothing else?"
Renly sat down on the sofa next to him, drinking water for a while, showing a puzzled look, thinking about it, but still had no idea, "I've been watching movies for the past few days." Other than that, nothing happened.
Andy took a serious look at Renly's expression and couldn't help reminding, "Hint: Natalie Portman."
Ren Li was stunned for a while, first showing a look of sudden realization, but then turning into confusion, "I had a relationship with her, but that's all, she doesn't even know my name."
"Really?" Andy had a meaningful smile on his face, obviously not believing Renly's words.
"My Iceberg Beauty Wife"
Renly thought deeply for a moment, but still had no idea. "Did she say anything?"
When he left, he slapped Natalie, but judging from the news in the past three days, it didn't work, and maybe the reporter didn't even hear the deep meaning of his words - one of the reporters went to He had been following his itinerary for the past three days. If he hadn't known that the other party was a reporter, he almost thought he was about to encounter a stalker. So Renly still couldn't think of any reason why Natalie had any connection with him.
"She did say something, but what I'm more curious about is what you said to her." Andy laughed sincerely this time, but instead of continuing to sell the secret, he revealed the answer, "Her The agent called me and said Natalie wanted to date you."
Frances Parker is Natalie Portman's agent.
Renly was indifferent to such explosive news, as if he was just talking about a stranger, which made Andy a little disappointed, so he could only continue to explain, "Accurately, it's a contract love." Waiting for Renly to ask questions , he explained.
"That is, say in front of the media, you're dating, and then we'll have some reporters, take pictures of your date, make a schedule, when to hold hands, when to kiss, when to send her home, when to spend the night, Then when will we break up? Although it is said that after the door is closed and reporters can’t see it, you don’t need to cooperate with the performance, and you can do what you want during the night, and you don’t need to have a real relationship; but in public It’s best to rub some sparks on occasions, but today’s reporters can’t be fooled.”
Renly frowned slightly, "You mean, she invited me to have a fake relationship with her, but she tried to deceive reporters and the public with a fake?"
"Yes." Andy nodded and affirmed, "From September to March next year. This is the preliminary plan. I believe that with the acting skills of the two of you, there should be no problem. However, if you do fake dramas for real. If so, it's best to notify me in advance so that I won't be in a rush."
So, life is all about acting, is that what it means
"Why me?" Renly was not surprised, but chuckled.
Andy looked at the deep meaning and playfulness in Renly's smile, and suddenly realized that Renly seemed to know something, "Yeah, I'm also curious, why you?" When Francis called, he was the one who was most surprised people.
Generally speaking, in order to cooperate with the promotion of commercial films, it is quite possible for the male and female protagonists to sign a contract and fall in love. From the start of filming to the end of the publicity period, step by step arrangements are made for the two people in the camp to "gradually warm up their feelings", and then let the media and the audience have Participation, play the best direct publicity effect.
However, it is now the Internet age, and the lives of celebrities are really put under the magnifying glass, so the risk of contractual love is too great, and it is easy to reveal the truth. Film companies and public relations companies are also reluctant to operate unless the hero and heroine really rub off. Sparks, or the explosion point of the movie's publicity has been poor to a certain extent, this is the alternative.
But now, Natalie and Renly, two people who had nothing to do with each other, were suddenly brought together, and Renly was still a newcomer. In other words, in this contractual relationship, Renly is the "beneficial" party, and it is easy to be quickly understood by the audience, and the popularity and recognition will skyrocket. Everything is spooky.
But Andy didn't care too much about this kind of popularity. Because Renly at this stage is a typical powerful actor, and his strength is the best way for the audience to know him, not such lace news - this kind of gossip about women's superiors and men's inferiors can easily locate the man on the vase.
Andy was even more curious about the reason why Francis made such a proposal - Francis was naturally reluctant to reveal more information, just asked Andy if he had any intentions, and then sold it, saying that they could be buried alive after the premiere today. Talk deeply.
"It's not a question I can answer." Renly felt a little ridiculous and couldn't help chuckling. "Natalie is now dating Benjamin Millepide."
"Benjamin Meeped?" Andy repeated the name, his brain running a few times, and said in surprise, "The choreography of 'Black Swan'?"
"Yes." Renly nodded, then briefly recounted the encounter that day.
However, Renly didn't mention the skirmish between the two people. On the one hand, there was absolutely no need to worry about it, and on the other hand, he felt that there was no direct connection. But Andy was unwilling to let it go easily, and asked every detail in detail until the first moment when the two met, and then fell into contemplation.
"Give me a moment." After thinking about it, Andy took out his phone, plugged in the charger, and started making calls.
Renly saw that he had nothing to do here, so he was busy with his own affairs, and seemed not to care.
Andy spent more than 90 minutes on this phone call. The last call was to Francis. The two discussed it for nearly 40 minutes. In the end, they could not reach a consensus, but they finally understood the matter. The ins and outs - Francis still isn't quite telling the truth, but enough for Andy.
He stood up, looked around for Renly's figure, and finally found his target on the balcony. Renly was actually sitting on the balcony reading a book, and his complacent look made Andy laugh, "Even if you're not interested in Natalie Portman, you should at least prepare for the premiere in the afternoon, this is you 's first film, and also the first Toronto, isn't it?"
Renly shrugged. "Firsts can never be counted. Instead of celebrating every 'first', treat each future as a first and truly enjoy it." He looked up, yes Andy showed a smile, "What's more, there is no way to prepare for the premiere, right? Relaxing is the best preparation."
"I can't argue with that." Andy sat down across from Renly. Although Andy was not at the scene at the time and could not know the real and accurate situation, it can still be speculated. Obviously, Natalie is facing the current dilemma. The big reason is that Renly dug a big hole, but now Renly is completely in front of him. Calm and calm, obviously not a guy to mess with, which made Andy feel relieved.
"The relationship between Natalie and Benjamin can't be discovered, which may affect the Oscar PR after 'Black Swan'. So, they need a shield. From the current situation, you are the most suitable person. Because, only It was only three days ago that you had a 'gossip', didn't you?" Andy summed up the situation briefly, always with a relaxed smile on his face, "For them, it can divert the media focus; for us, …”
Andy paused for a moment, but unfortunately, he still failed to get Renly to take the bait, so he could only continue to say, "You can gain enough exposure, which is not only good for 'buried alive', but also good for your popularity. . So, it's a win-win situation. Of course, now they need our help, we can negotiate the terms again, maybe we can get you a good source, this is Toronto, it's a good time. If you With a nod, this afternoon's premiere could be the first starting point."
"Are you asking for my opinion?" Renly noticed Andy's pause. "I thought these decisions were made by agents."
"Then if I nod and agree, are you willing to cooperate?" Andy didn't answer directly, but asked instead.
Ren Li raised his eyebrows slightly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was teasing, "I don't think so."
