“……Before every performance, I have to read the script over and over again, worrying that I will make mistakes in my lines, worry that I will not understand it well, and worry that my performance will not be appropriate enough. To be honest, after the filming was completed, I was still a little afraid of Renly, because he is a perfect character. The pressure is always there to perform opposite to him..”

Sammy is answering the questions seriously.

The press conference went very smoothly. Not only Renly, but also other actors in the crew also got the opportunity to answer questions, but every question was more or less related to Renly. This is definitely true superstar treatment. Just like the question posed to Sami just now, the reporter was concerned about Renly's state during the performance and whether he felt special as a rival actor. So Sami gave the above answer..

Before she finished speaking, Sami noticed that the reporters in the audience were all laughing. Sami didn't understand the reason. She was answering the questions very seriously. Why were the reporters so happy? Renly is indeed meticulous and pursues perfection on the set, but this is a good thing because she can devote herself wholeheartedly to her performance and give a better performance. For a novice like her, Renly is like a mentor, guiding her , so does Betty. So, what are the reporters laughing at??

Sami was confused. He thought he had said the wrong thing, but couldn't find the reason. So he raised his head and looked at Renly, casting a doubtful gaze. Then he noticed that the corners of Renly's mouth were also raised. , "Sammy, for the sake of my image, I think it's better to end this issue here..”

“Ha ha! "The reporters in the audience burst into laughter. Even Marcia, Tony and others on the stage were overjoyed..

However, Sammy still didn't understand what happened, and was confused and confused. She looked back at Betty, only to find that Betty was also full of question marks. She looked at Renly again, and then saw the pair of golden shoes. Her eyes were full of smiles, which made Sami feel a little more at ease - at least there was nothing wrong with what she just said..

Sami turned his head in confusion, looking at the extremely happy scene, and then named the next reporter who asked questions. It was a middle-aged uncle with a full head of curly hair. It was hard to tell whether it was white or lotus root. He was wearing a white shirt, with the top three buttons casually opened, and large patches of silver-gray chest hair could be clearly seen. His whole body exuded a smell unique to southern Europe. After he stood up, he began to chirp. Said a lot of words.

Can't understand.

Sami was stunned, blinked, and found that she couldn't understand a word. First of all, it was not English; secondly, she didn't know what language it was at all. There was a big pile of crackling sounds, just like beans poured out of a bamboo tube, Sami Mi was so dumbfounded that she even forgot to ask for help and just sat there blankly..

“You should put on those headphones." Renly came over and said in Sammy's ear, pointing to the headphones on the table with his right hand..

Sami didn't know why, but just nodded blankly, and hurriedly put on the earphones, but there was no sound coming from the earbuds. She looked at Renly in confusion, and then found that Renly was helpless. She looked straight ahead. She also turned her head and looked over. Then she realized that the reporter's question had ended and sat down again..

What should I do now??

Renly patted Sammy's arm gently and whispered, "Don't be nervous. The reporter just asked questions in Italian. This is a translator, but it can be translated simultaneously, so there will be no problem wearing it.".”

Sammy suddenly realized. On the table, there was a small machine and a pair of earplugs in front of everyone. Sammy didn't know what they were used for, but Renly didn't wear them, and neither did Tony or anyone else. So she naturally didn't care. She didn't expect that this was actually a synchronous translator - she had only seen it in the news before, but she didn't expect to actually see it in real life.!

“He just asked you, how did you feel when you learned that you got the role? Because this is a special role, did the family express any concerns? "Renly's words came over immediately, and he restated the topic..

Sammy's eyes widened, and the answer immediately appeared in his mind, "This is Renly Hall! I mean, Renly Hall!" He had already begun to scream in his mind, but the next step Within seconds, Sammy realized that his thoughts had escaped the shackles of his brain, and he shouted, his voice even trembling slightly with excitement, "Being able to cooperate with Renly is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Before I receive the notice, I Just finished watching 'Fast & Furious 5', I mean, he's such a charismatic actor. So, excited and nervous, that's the only thing I thought about.”

The question was not answered completely, but Sami did not notice. When young people face reporters, they do not plan their answers, nor do they deliberately flatter and please. They just say whatever comes to mind, and their words are not controlled. blurt out.

In unison, all the reporters looked at Renly, and he couldn't help but laugh, "So, this is compensation for what I just said, to avoid my revenge.?”

Sami still didn't understand the meaningless words, but the reporters immediately reacted - Sami just said that Renly was very strict on the set, even scary, so Renly deliberately said it half-jokingly Sami was stopped from continuing, and now he was teasing again. So, everyone on the scene chuckled..

At this time, the reporter who just asked the question stood up again, looked around, looking for the staff, and then spoke eloquently in Italian..

The staff at the scene were a little confused for a moment, hesitating and not knowing what to do. Renly laughed dumbly, and then took the initiative to lend a helping hand, "This reporter's simultaneous translator seems to have some problems, so he can't understand." I need a little help with the conversation we just had..”

Tony, who was sitting next to him, turned around and said in surprise, "I didn't know you could speak Italian.".”

Renly opened his mouth slightly and chuckled, "It's very simple. I am British, and Britain is also part of Europe; and you are American, so there is nothing surprising about this." In an instant, the whole audience burst into laughter. Hilarious, including Tony.

This is a language gag.

Americans can be said to be one of the most "unprogressive" groups in the world. They only speak English. Even Spanish, which is compulsory learning in high school, countless Americans are terrible at any language other than English. It's all bible to them, it's a general trend, and it's the same for most Americans.

Correspondingly, Europeans can use multiple languages ​​​​proficiently. In addition to their own mother tongue and the most basic English, most European residents can speak four to five languages ​​​​or even more. The overall trend is that the more northern The residents of Vietnam are worse, such as Northern Europe and Germany; while the residents of Vietnam are worse, such as Spain and Italy..

Renly's simple words just now made fun of the United States and Europe. The European reporters present understood it instantly, so they burst into laughter..

“May I ask, how many languages ​​do you speak? "A reporter took advantage of the situation and raised his voice to ask. He didn't stand up to ask a question, nor did he ask a formal question. He just asked about a gossip out of curiosity..

Renly pursed his lips, "If it's just 'hello' to say hello, then I think I can say more than ten or twenty different ways." The relaxed and humorous answer made laughter ring again, and then Renly saw One person raised his right hand high and stood up without even waiting for his name to be called. Renly nodded and joked, "This reporter? I hope I can understand your question.".”

The reporter was also a quick thinker. He did not choose to ask questions in English. Instead, he chose his native language. "..." After finishing the question, he said in English, "Can you please answer it?"?”

At the same time, all the reporters’ eyes fell on Renly, and then they saw Renly shrugging with a smile, “Yes, I have watched a lot of Chinese movies; yes, I know Wang /Quan/ Director An, I have watched 'Tuya's Marriage' and its images are quite powerful..”

Chinese?

The reporter who stood up just now is from China and asked the question in an authentic Beijing style..

2006In 2010, "Tuya's Marriage" unexpectedly won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival that year, which brought director Wang Quan/An into the spotlight; in 2010, also a work by Wang Quan/An, "Reunion" once again made a splash in Berlin and won the Silver Bear Award for Best Screenplay. This year, the director came to Berlin with "White Deer Plain" and attracted a lot of attention. So, questions naturally revolved around this director. Got it.

But what's even more surprising is that first it was Italian, and then it was Chinese. Inadvertently, Renly's knowledge was really eye-catching..

Everyone says that actors who come from British academic schools have profound knowledge. Not only do they have solid basic skills in expressionistic acting, but they also have outstanding literary background. However, this kind of erudition is invisible and intangible, and people never have an intuitive understanding of it. What does it mean? Can you pick up Shakespeare's lines at your fingertips? Still have a stomach full of world classics?

Today, people finally got a glimpse of not the language, but the effort and precipitation required behind the language. Does this mean that Renly can watch Italian opera? You know, the best operas in the world are always sung in Italy; does this mean that Renly has a preliminary understanding of China's rich history and profound culture? As one of the four ancient civilizations, China’s culture and history are definitely eye-catching.

Language is just a window, what is important is the scenery seen through the window.

In an instant, the eyes of all the reporters on the scene became meaningful: This 22-year-old actor is like a treasure, waiting to be continuously unearthed! In Europe, a land where art thrives, actors like Renly are what they long to see.!
