The lazy and comfortable sunlight swayed and flowed freely under the cloudless sky, and the blue Mediterranean Sea had a shallow pearl white halo. Shrouded in a layer of graceful lemon yellow that seems to exist, it is gentle and light.

Gavin Hunter's footsteps involuntarily left the crowd of reporters and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling windows of the villa lobby. The shallow waves of Wang Bibo were wrapped in a green fence, as if the heart of the ocean was left behind. After entering the backyard, I stood on tiptoe and looked over, and then I could see the line between the sea and the sky where the dark blue and the light blue blended together.

It is rumored that the owner of this villa is a fund manager in the financial district of London who is a close friend of Andre Hamilton. As the owner, he invited Renly and his party to settle here as a stopover during the Cannes Film Festival. Land, just like when I attended the Venice Film Festival.

Even the richest man in the world can't go to every place to buy a property. It's not unaffordable but unnecessary, so connections are crucial: lack of friends' help, then a five-star hotel is the first choice, but even a hotel No matter how high-level or private, there is no taste of home after all - being able to build a "home" environment wherever you go, this is the special superpower possessed by the real top rich and top nobles.

Just like the villa in front of you, you can feel the warmth of home in every corner, as well as the traces left by Renly and his party in the past two days.

Although he has been away from the front line for a long time, the experience accumulated over the years has made Gavin calmer and more sophisticated, and he can capture different information wherever his vision goes. This is actually a very interesting thing. At the same time, this It also made Gavin deeply miss the days when the frontline ran news.

When I was young, I was always looking forward to accumulating enough qualifications and abilities, and then I left the front line and returned to the office. In the days of running around, Gavin can really understand what Renly means by "Don Quixote's dream", a dream that does not belong to others, but only belongs to himself and only he can understand.

After the Oscars ended, Gavin returned to the front line.

"'The New York Times,' 'U.S. Weekly.'"

The call from the entrance of the hall made the reporters agitated one after another. Envy eyes were exploring the spacious space. The only thought in their minds was "why not me", but what else could they do? The news media trying to interview Renly had already lined up outside the villa, and they were able to blow the air conditioner inside the villa, which was a big step ahead of their peers, and the next thing to do was to be patient.

"Bradley! Made a special trip to Cannes this year?"

"There's no way, how can I miss Renly attending the main competition? Besides, who can refuse the sun and sea of ​​the Côte d'Azur?"

Gavin's footsteps were slightly hesitant, and he stood behind politely and cautiously. Looking at Nathan, who was chatting and laughing with ease, he sighed slightly in his heart:

The ignorant and shy little assistant at the time has grown into a mature assistant who can take charge of himself. Even as a "seven-rank official in front of the prime minister's door", Nathan is not arrogant and strong, and still maintains the warmth and warmth in his memory. It never seemed to leave a trace here.

"Hey... Gavin?" Nathan's words were slightly hesitant, which made Gavin inevitably surprised, but he nodded in affirmation, and Nathan's eyes flashed with surprise, "Man, long time no see, I was chatting with Roy yesterday, and it was really early for us to book an exclusive interview with Us Weekly this year, I didn't expect to see a familiar face again in Cannes, Renly would definitely be very happy, very happy to meet again."

If the audience seems to be looking at, guessing, and pondering, it is obvious that Nathan and the two reporters are very familiar with each other, and the reporters will inevitably mutter in their hearts, "Is it because of nepotism to cut the queue? Is it?"

If this is the case, whether it is "New York Times" or "U.S. Weekly", they need to argue well - although the final decision is still on the side of the "Lobster" crew, those appeals should have little hope, but have not tried , how do you know the result? At least let out a sigh of anger.

But then Nathan's words were poured down like a bucket of ice water, and all the restlessness immediately cooled down, and all died down in an instant.

I heard rumors before that in order to increase the exposure and publicity of the film crews that landed in the three major European film festivals, the crews had to provide "travel fees" to the media reporters and invited them to interview the crew members and help publicize them; but Renly - A top brand of such a level as Hall, not only refused to give reporters "carriage fees", but also because there were too many media applying for interviews, the crew in turn charged "application fees" to open interviews.

To put it simply, if a reporter wants to participate in today's roundtable interview - and it is not a separate interview, then the news media must pay the publicity company 2,000 euros, otherwise it will be cut across the board; but even if the publicity party has formulated relevant regulations, The media that applied for interviews also easily broke through the triple digits.

This made the propagandists a little dumbfounded.

There is no way, this is not only the first time after the Oscars, Renly has been interviewed publicly on any occasion - a roundtable interview may be a face-to-face interview with four or five groups of media, far from a press conference group.

The interviews were comparable; and it was the return of Cannes after a year, and Renly's appearance made French audiences excited, even European journalists. No one wanted to miss such a good opportunity.

At this moment, the reporters gathered at Renly's private villa are all media who have come to participate in the roundtable interview, and they are guaranteed to be eligible for the interview; however, if they miss it, they can only wait for the "Lobster" post-screening news in the evening. After the press conference, there may be more than 300 or even 400 reporters gathered in the audience. The scene must be very lively, but for the reporters, they are completely submerged in the sea of ​​people.

What's more, compared to those so-called superstars who play big names, no one can deny Renly's approachability, and these small obstacles are nothing at all.

The brief commotion soon subsided, and the reporters sat down again mumbled, patiently, and waiting for their own interview opportunities.

At the same time, Gavin didn't have time to pay attention to the restless gaze behind him. All his attention was focused on the upcoming interview. He followed Nathan's footsteps and walked forward, hurriedly exchanging a gesture of gaze with Bradley, and then Emotions began to uncontrollably tense.

Although it has been two months since the Oscars, which also means that he has returned to the front line for nearly three months, this is the first meeting with Renly after his return. It's like... fans are about to get up close and personal with idols.

The journey is a little long, passing through the living room, through the kitchen and dining room, and through a corridor surrounded by bamboo curtains, and then the view suddenly opens up, a private beach is within easy reach, compared to the busy street and beach in front of the villa. In other words, the quietness and openness here are completely another world. The boundless blue softens the scorching sun, and the sea breeze rustles in my ears.

Like a paradise.

"Good morning, gentlemen." Renly said hello from the side, Bradley and Gavin both turned their heads, only to see Renly standing up from the beach chair, bright orange golf shirt with mint blue The beach shorts, simple yet elegant holiday look, are eye-catching.

"Gavin? How did you show up in Cannes?" Renly recognized the old friend of Us Weekly at a glance, "I heard you've been promoted, there's no need to run news on the front lines, don't you think? Are you starting your own business?"

A little joke, with familiarity, but not too offensive, Gavin's mood is inexplicably relaxed, still the familiar taste of the familiar formula, "I came here to interview you, and sometimes I miss the life of wandering around. , maybe it’s still suitable to work hard and endure hardships on the front line.”

The words were still slightly restrained.

Renly and Bradley exchanged glances, and Renly chuckled, "I'm sure office life has left its mark."

This is to complain that the content of Gavin's answer is too standardized and too rigid. There is no "vitality" of first-line interviews at all, and it is more of an office work model.

Gavin thought about it seriously, not only was he not angry, but he still laughed out loud, spread out his hands to admit his "mistake", and then looked around, slightly puzzled, but didn't put it forward, "Today's bulletin has been released. , what do you think of the evaluation of 'lobster'?"

"Has it come out yet? How is it? How's the media feedback?" Renly invited the two to sit down. He was still unhurried and unhurried. He just expressed polite curiosity, but there was no expectation in his words. passion in it.

Although it is said that this is the usual style of Renly, Gavin can't help but sigh that it has been a long time; but the situation of "Lobster" is really special, they thought Renly would pay a little attention, not to mention Gavin, even Brad Li couldn't hold back either.

"The whole Cannes is arguing over 'lobster', but the parties don't care at all. I think we are all just worrying about it." Bradley complained, "Don't tell me, you don't know how to discuss Upsurge? Since yesterday afternoon, controversy can be heard everywhere in the footsteps, obviously no one can convince anyone, such a lively situation has not been seen in Cannes for a long time."

"It's a good thing." Renly nodded slightly and replied.

This... is that all?
