Since 1994, "Vanity Fair" held Oscar night, this carnival seems to have surpassed the Oscar itself, become the most important social feast of the year, attracting attention from all over the world. Along with it, the Sunset Tower Hotel as the venue has become another landmark in Los Angeles. Countless movie lovers will come here to visit, trying to get a glimpse of the star-studded corner.
The decoration style of bright red and piano black reveals a modern atmosphere. The light yellow lighting fills the hotel lobby with a lazy and private atmosphere. On the wine red sofa chair on the left hand side, someone is talking in a low voice, which makes people unable to bear it. I live to guess if a certain Hollywood superstar is waiting for his room card. The silence is mixed with a trace of restlessness, youth and vigor, and even a trace of innocence. I can't feel too much of the background, but it is enough to make young people excited and excited. Endless.
Obviously, compared to the characteristics of the hotel itself, the reason why the Sunset Tower Hotel can become the venue for Oscar night is mainly because of its unique geographical location. Go straight east along Sunset Boulevard, less than a mile away. , you can reach the famous Hollywood Boulevard - Walk of Fame, Kodak Theater, Chinese/Chinese Theater and other landmarks.
Antony-Cliff is thirty-six years old this year. As the lobby manager, standing by the counter, he has a panoramic view of the whole place. Every time the guests enter and leave, he can see at a glance, ensuring that the service in every link is accurate. In place, and then he saw a group of people who had just walked through the door.
"Fairy Wood"
The man walking at the front is tall and slender, dressed in a light cyan shirt and a light gray pullover sweater, showing a touch of elegance in his casual style. His short curly hair is casually drooping in front of his forehead, and his right hand is in his trousers pocket, as if The academy and aristocratic temperament are revealed in every gesture, as if they came out of the classmates of Cambridge University.
Behind the man was the luggage boy, a dark brown rattan handmade suitcase, and a hat box. The information revealed in the details made Anthony straighten his waist - this was obviously an upper-class British aristocrat.
Behind the man, a baby-faced man dressed in a jumper and jeans is looking curiously at the hotel's interior; a man in a work coat and a white T-shirt scans his surroundings nonchalantly, as if judging himself situation.
They...should be actors. Anthony made a judgment that the most important thing in Los Angeles is actors, ranging from good actors to top actors.
At this moment, the man in the front stopped and looked around slowly and politely. Anthony's heart could not help shrinking slightly. He could detect that the man should be examining the paintings hanging in the lobby. , the real heritage is often seen in small details such as paintings, vases, and tables.
But at the same time, the baby-faced man also stopped and stood aside; the man in the white T-shirt didn't seem to notice and walked straight forward. After walking a few steps, he came back to his senses and shouted. Said, "On the fourteenth floor, we can just go up directly."
Anthony couldn't help being a little surprised, so, that man is also an actor? But he couldn't search for the names of any actors who were seated right in his mind.
Between the light and the flint, Anthony made a judgment and decision, hurried forward to meet him, and stopped three steps diagonally in front of the man, "Good afternoon, welcome to the Sunset Tower Hotel, what can I do? Can I help you?"
This is the first time that Renly has truly entered the hinterland of Los Angeles, the City of Angels, the heart of Hollywood, the excitement in the strangeness makes the steps light up, and in a trance, there is a sense of being participating at this time. The illusion of Oscar night, the strange and unfamiliar emotion made him stop.
However, the turbulent emotions in his heart did not show. Whether it was in the last life or this life, the education he received was to keep his anger and anger indifferent, and to maintain a polite and gentleman's demeanor in front of the public; Having attended countless noble social occasions, it is natural to deal with such situations calmly.
Hearing the greeting, Renly withdrew his gaze, bowed slightly politely in response, and landed on the other party's badge, "Anthony, I'm here for the 'Pacific War' interview, am I late? "
Polite but not too close, concise and revealing enough information, casual with a touch of focus. A simple answer reveals a completely different temperament and background, which is also one of the sharp differences caused by the cultural differences between British actors and American actors.
"No, you're not late." Anthony maintained his etiquette without any hesitation, and took the initiative to make an inviting gesture, "The make-up team has just arrived, and they are now on the fourteenth floor. Please allow me to lead the way for you. gentlemen… ?"
Anthony left a void, which Renly filled in, "Hall."
"Mr. Hall." Anthony said with a smile, then walked ahead and led the way.
Rami and James stood beside them and looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. Inexplicably, Anthony took the initiative to express his friendship, and even led them all the way to the 14th floor, where they arrived at the "War in the Pacific" crew and rented it out. three rooms - two for makeup and one for interviews. After sending them to their destination, Anthony turned around and left. This kind of treatment is definitely something that only VIPs can enjoy.
After giving the tip, Renly turned around and saw the puzzled faces of Rami and James, "What the hell is going on? Why did they bring us up in person?"
Renly shrugged with a chuckle, "You can understand that the hotel's service is attentive, or that the attraction of tips makes them willing to work hard." Such an explanation made James look suddenly enlightened, and Rami always felt that Something was wrong, but he couldn't say it. Seeing that Renly had pushed the door and went in, he hurriedly followed.
Anthony walked into the elevator, and the luggage boy next to him endured and endured, but he still couldn't hold back, "Tony, was that a big guy just now? Why did you bring him up in person?"
Anthony showed a big smile, "Even if it is not now, it will definitely be in the future." This is an investment. Although his job is not directly related to the actors, as the hotel lobby manager, he is the information in the circle. The more important people you know, the more valuable his work will be.
In his opinion, Mr. Hall just now has the potential of a superstar. Although it was only a brief conversation, his sixth sense judged that, so he made a choice decisively.
Li Li suddenly realized, but then said inexplicably, "What if he still does nothing in the future?"
"Then I have nothing to lose." Anthony couldn't help chuckling, and Li Li thought about it seriously, and then he really understood. How to establish a network of contacts is an extremely profound knowledge.
"At least he's a generous tipper." Little brother Li touched the ten dollars in his pocket, usually at most five dollars. A box that was so light just now had double the income, which was a good deal.
Renly and the others who filed into the room saw the lively scene in the room at a glance. The room they entered was a dressing room. The table in the hall was dazzlingly filled with all kinds of cosmetics, and several makeup artists were scattered around. In different corners of the surrounding sofas, they are preparing their own make-up work, ready to go; three chairs are placed next to them, and the hair stylists are playing with their tools. Since the entire crew is almost men, it is relatively refreshing here. .
In the bedroom across the hall, a few people can be heard talking loudly. It should be other actors who are preparing to participate in the promotion. It seems that many people arrived at the scene ahead of time. Renly and others are not early at all, but they looked around. In one lap, Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg were not seen for a while.
"The three of you, the two of you will start dressing first, and you will go to the next door to change your clothes." Darling Levitt, the chief production manager of the crew, came over, his eyes fell on James, and he did not conflict with Renly, but he did not conflict with Lanly either. Li exchanged, "Did none of your agents come with you?" Dallin confirmed it, and the three of them shook their heads in unison. They were all unknown people. Even if there was an agent, the agent would not follow him. Remote control is the best way to do it. "Then take a look at the framework of this question. If there is a problem, go to ask Gary before accepting the interview. Otherwise, if you make a mistake, then you will be responsible for the consequences."
Gary-Goetzman, executive producer of "War in the Pacific," followed the crew throughout filming.
Renly didn't care about Dallin's ignorance at all, and turned to look at the two of them, "Otherwise, I'll go change clothes first." After flying all the way, while there is still time, it's best to take a shower and wash Go to the dust, otherwise the first official meeting with the media will leave a bad impression.
"No problem," James said cheerfully, and Rami nodded in affirmation.
Less than two minutes after entering the door, Renly turned around again and walked out - the next room was a special dressing room, closed the door, turned around, and then Renly saw the figure of a young girl at the end of the corridor walking out of the room at the same time. When I came out, the room looked like it should be the room where the interview media rested.
The girl was tall, with a thin and slender torso, revealing a decadent and unrestrained temperament under the faint light and shadow of the corridor. The neat short hair covered half of her face along her slightly drooping head, which could be vaguely seen. Seeing an ear stud hidden in the hair, it looks like a skull, a white T-shirt with black ripped jeans, a simple and clear dress, under the rivet cowhide jacket outlines a rebellious and stubborn special Walk alone.
The girl raised her right hand, scratched her hair vigorously, turned her head, and then saw another stranger in the corridor, with a halo in her eyes that covered her smoky makeup, and a smile on the corner of her mouth. "Renly Hall, long time no see!"
