Chapter 72 - Interview

"Everyone is very concerned about your second movie. Is it a movie that was thrown into the warehouse after it was filmed and was completely worthless?"

Owen's first question is in the middle of the heart, unlike many other reporters or moderators who first chat with the interviewee or talk about some light topics before entering.

Laila likes this kind of directness, so she also decided to follow his pace.

"I also saw the article by Mr. Cooper. When I saw it, I felt amused and angry."

"What do you think is funny? Why are you angry?"

Laila spread her hands: "If you have an excellent film that has been put into production with all your heart and is ready to be released on an important date, and is entrusted with unlimited expectations, it is said to be a bad film that is thrown into the warehouse after the filming, don't it be funny?"

Owen laughed at her innocent look: "Then why are you angry again?"

Laila squinted her eyes: "In Mr. Cooper's article, I can see that he is a very socially responsible person. He said that he didn't want to discourage the enthusiasm of young directors like me, although he did. I still believe that he is thinking about the directors. He doesn't want more people like me to make movies that can only make money but are meaningless. It's a shame."

"That's why you are angry? Because you have been hit, criticized, accused?"

"Yes, I have to admit that there are some." Laila laughed suddenly when he heard his question. He deserves to be the person Anthony found, and he directly pointed out what she didn't say clearly. She also wanted to point to Cooper's nose to curse a few words, but unfortunately, her status, at most, she can only curse a few words.

"In my opinion, Mr. Cooper seems to have a big misunderstanding of movies. Why are movies divided into so many categories? Does every movie need to be educational? Yes, many movies are profound. The significance of awakening also got a very high box office. But that's not all."

"It may be that Mr. Cooper is already old and doesn't understand the thinking of our younger generation. I have to say that the film is not only educational, it is also for entertainment. For example, today I went to a movie with my friends. I want to watch some absurd comedies that can make us happy. Another example is that someone is bored and wants to watch some horror movies that scare me into adrenaline. So does it mean that these purely commercial movies have no meaning?"

Irving nodded: "Then do you think there is no need for education in commercial films?"

Laila raised her eyebrows at his provocative question: "Then I have to ask, what is the meaning of education? Teaching to be good? Teaching peace? Or to establish a correct outlook on life and the world? All in horror movies. People are desperately trying to escape with the help of each other. Is this teaching the spirit of helping others to be kind to others? Aliens are coming, and our soldiers are fighting hard to resist. Is this considered the correct outlook on life and the world? Then commercial movies are not. Does each one have educational significance?"

Irving didn't expect to meet an exciting partner this time, and he had to admit that the young lady in front of him could talk more than he thought. When he came, he learned from Anthony that she was a person who didn't like to be exposed to the media and thought she did this because she was not very good at talking. It seems that she is not good at dealing with the press, but she is not interested.

In this society where everyone wants to promote themselves, and a girl like her who is "indifferent to fame and fortune", it is really a strange existence.

In the following interview, Laila turned on Cooper's firepower, using all kinds of taunting techniques from the ancient eastern country, and was highly skilled in cursing people without dirty words. At the end of the interview, even Owen said she would have excellent results when she participated in the talk show.

He didn't know why some of the words and sentences he used to listen to her mouth seemed to make people want to laugh when they came out of her mouth. But if he stood in the opposite angle to her, it would make the people crazy. He estimated that Cooper would be furious after seeing the interview. Maybe he would be so angry that he lost his reason.

Laila's intention is precisely the same. There are still a few months before the end of October of Halloween. She wants more people to know that "saw" needs to make the pool water muddier. As she said before, it's hard not to think of being famous if Cooper helps her continuously improve her popularity.

For Cooper to help her more wholeheartedly, it is, of course, necessary to appropriately increase the fire. It depends on whether the effect is good or not. It depends on whether her fire is increased enough.

But looking at Owen's expression after the interview, Laila knew that she should be doing pretty well.

The next day, the interview with her was published in "Entertainer", and according to Anthony's request, the newspaper left a whole page for her. The above not only introduced some of her situations but also published the interview with her without deletion.

Yes, no word was deleted or changed.

A reporter is a career that is not too big to watch the excitement. The more topical, the more refreshing they can be touched. Seeing that Laila's banner has been raised, how can it make sense not to shout for cheering next to them?

As a result, the newspapers that day increased their sales by 20% than usual. Some cooperative media asked for cooperation, hoping to forward the content of their interviews. And Laila's supposedly "bad movie thrown into the warehouse as soon as it was shot" also officially appeared in front of the public.

It turned out that the name of the film was "saw". It turned out not to be so bad that it was worthless, but to collect it and choose the best time to broadcast. It turned out that the talented director is full of vitality and has already begun to shoot her third movie. !

For a time, as long as there is a place for communication, the names of Laila and "saw" will appear. Especially on the Internet with the most significant number of young people, all kinds of things 'like Laila' and 'curse Cooper' can be seen everywhere.

"Shit!" Cooper smashed his coffee cup in the study. At this time, what his computer showed was precisely what Laila's fans were swearing at him. These people didn't have Laila's scruples. They wanted to say whatever they wanted, so they were hideous. He was so angry that he almost fainted without catching his breath.

"Didn't you tell me that it was a bad movie that was locked in a warehouse?" He grabbed the phone and snarled when he connected.

"…What? You never said that it was a bad movie? Everything is my misunderstanding? Shit! I don't want to hear you repeat this! I want to make a big deal. I want to make her feel bad!"

He didn't want to listen to the opposite person anymore and hung up the phone in a rage. He was very angry because he knew what the other person said was the truth. When he heard that the second movie was made, he collected it, and there was no further information. He preconceived it and took it for granted that it was a bad and worthless movie.

Otherwise, how could a small company that is not as big as a rat's teeth put aside more than two million films instead of releasing them right away? Especially when it is controversial! He didn't believe that a teenage girl would have such strong endurance.
