The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 321 First Interview
This was not the first time Nicholas saw Anson up close, but no matter how many times he saw it, the oncoming impact was still deeply imprinted in his mind.

Today is no exception——

A light gray vertical striped shirt paired with dark blue jeans highlights elegance and chic handsomeness. A black leather jacket and navy blue boots highlight a tough and unruly low-key look. Finally, a pencil narrow black tie paired with a black belt buckle ties up the proportions of the body. .

A kind of calmness and elegance that walks between danger and fatality collide to create a subtle visual effect. It seems contradictory and complicated, but it makes people unable to take their eyes away. It is really hard for the brain to imagine how such a combination came about. , couldn't help but fall into a kind of wonder.

In fact, when viewed individually, each single piece seems ordinary and nothing special, but when combined together, there is something special.

Elegant and romantic, but you can feel the rebelliousness and rock 'n' roll in your heart.

A question couldn't help but pop up in my mind: How did he do it? Did God put some extra thought into creating this skin?
Moreover, the car is a motorcycle!

Uncontrollably, a yearning arose, and Nicholas couldn't help but wonder, what would it be like to live as Anson for a day?
"Hey, Anson!"

Nicholas shouted hello, and just when Anson took off his helmet and turned to look over, he pressed the shutter, freezing the moment for eternity.

——"What's it like to be Anson Wood?"

This is the title of the exclusive interview written by Nicholas for the "New York Times". He uses a different approach to break the framework of the traditional interview. Instead, he records the conversation in a way that follows Anson's peers.

At the beginning, Nicholas summarized the interview with a short paragraph.

"When I asked the question in the title, Anson smiled and gave an unexpected answer, 'try to find yourself.'

Anson said that appearance is often deceptive. People have a relative stereotype for each image, just like a blonde or an eye savant. Similarly, when people see me, they often have their own stereotypes. Judgment, and always trying to find the self under the skin, and trying to find the profile of an actor and a character in the self and appearance, giving the performance different colors, has become a subject. I am still on a journey of exploration.

This is not the answer I expected.

Obviously, it is no accident that this young actor was able to play three seemingly similar but completely different roles in his short career and leave a deep impression on the audience.

Of course, this unplanned interview did not go according to my plan:

An exploration. An adventure. A journey. Just like traveling, it is good to make plans in advance, but it is not necessarily a bad thing to occasionally go off track and enter unfamiliar areas. You may also make new discoveries. "

In just one paragraph of text, you can deeply feel the turbulent thoughts in Nicholas' mind. This is not a regular interview manuscript at all, so that the well-informed "New York Times" editor-in-chief Howell-Raines ) was also full of questions. After seeing the manuscript, he asked Nicholas what was going on.

Nicholas said, "From the beginning, things went off the rails. Can you imagine? I interviewed so many actors and so many directors, only to be left speechless by an 18-year-old young actor."

——"Come on, get in the car, and I'll take you to taste the most delicious breakfast in Los Angeles."

This was the first thing Anson said after seeing Nicholas.

No greetings, no pleasantries, just an invitation immediately.

Then he got on the bus again, handed a helmet to Nicholas, patted the back seat of the motorcycle as a signal, and the motorcycle was ready to start again without turning off the engine, looking as chic and rebellious as the "Easy Rider" in the 1960s.

Nicholas looked at his editor-in-chief, "Have you ever met an interview subject like this? To be honest, I was almost really moved." Howell could detect the shock and confusion in Nicholas' words, and he couldn't help laughing along with him. "I just have a question, is he really that special? I mean, the photos are nice and he's handsome, but I don't think he's any different from other Hollywood vases."

In essence, the "New York Times" is still a serious newspaper. Even in the entertainment section, they will not sensationalize like the "Sun". Naturally, Howell also appears to be much more sensible.

Nicholas did not speak in a hurry, but thought carefully, "Temperament. Anson has a contradictory and special temperament. When ordinary clothes are worn on him, I don't understand the lines and proportions, but He really steals the attention and makes me want to wear that outfit."

Howell raised his eyebrows slightly, "So, have you tried it?"

Nicholas looked down at his body, "I think it had different ideas."

Howell looked down at Anson in the photo again and couldn't help laughing.

Nicholas didn't mind, lightly shrugged, and continued.

"Although from the beginning, I didn't plan to follow a conventional route. I wanted to leave the indoors, go outdoors, have a conversation like a city walk, make him relax as much as possible, and then complete the routine."

"But I didn't expect that he would go further than me and directly overturn all the chessboards I prepared and propose a completely new game rule."

"It wasn't so much me interviewing him as he was trying to have a conversation, an equal, open conversation, which I obviously wasn't expecting."

Howell-Rales is the new editor-in-chief who just took office in July this year. Of course, he actually joined the New York Times in 1978.

This summer, former editor-in-chief Jayson Blair was involved in a misconduct scandal that exposed the New York Times to fierce firepower, and is still launching a very serious investigation.

Howell took office in such a predicament and took over this hot potato. The New York Times is facing multiple blows from internal and external troubles. They need to be more cautious on some sensitive issues.

Of course, there is no need for the "New York Times" to be so careful about an entertainment report, a new actor, or a summer movie; but from another perspective, if they can seize the opportunity to re-emphasize the "New York Times" professional image, which is also an unexpected gain.

Originally, Howell had no special idea, but thought they needed to be more cautious, so he paid more attention to the hot potato that Nicholas took over; but now, his intuition also triggered the switch——

Disney tried to seize this opportunity to promote Anson, and the New York Times could also seize the opportunity to lead the trend of public opinion and defend its professional position.

Howell became a little curious, "So, how about breakfast?"

Nicholas looked at the editor-in-chief, with a smile in his eyes, "Look, this is the charm of Anson, it makes people curious, and you are curious too, right?"

Howell was noncommittal.

Nicholas originally wanted to sell it off, but seeing that Howell wasn't fooled, he didn't mind and gave an unexpected answer, "He took me to a brunch."

Howell was stunned, "What?"
