Chapter 94 Sense of Presence

(Ask for a recommendation ticket)

The black Cadillac entered the Walk of Fame and gradually approached the location of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood. Matthew lowered the window slightly and could clearly hear the bursts of shouting from there. The speed of the car gradually slowed down, and the Cadillac stopped in the waiting area. , a crew member came over to coordinate the order of admission.

For this kind of red carpet ceremony, big-name stars are often placed one end at the other, and Matthew was arranged to enter the venue at a relatively middle time.

It was still early before the entry time, and Matthew sat in the car and waited steadily.

Suddenly, there were cheers from the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, and it seemed that a big star stepped onto the red carpet.

Matthew is very doubtful whether he will be cold when he walks on the red carpet. There should be few audiences who know him. At present, the only ones he has appeared in are Britney's MV and "Soul Shifting Girl". The former audience The range is small, the latter is just a passerby...

In any case, this is the first time in his life, and he is still full of expectations.

After waiting for a while, under the guidance of the staff, Cadillac started again and slowly drove forward for a distance. Matthew could already see the fans on both sides of the red carpet and the flashing lights that were constantly on, so he quickly raised the car. window.

He looked at the time, and it was estimated that it was already late in the middle.

Later, there must be big-name stars appearing one after another, which can be said to be a very bad time period.

However, Matthew has no complaints, this time period is very consistent with his status.

He knows that Hollywood is a Vanity Fair, and there is a clear hierarchy for actors and stars. If he hadn't starred in the barbarian leader, even if Helen Herman had a relationship in the crew, it would be difficult for him to walk on the red carpet of the premiere.

Finally, the black Cadillac stopped in the parking area at the end of the red carpet amid the chaotic fans shouting.

Looking through the car window, he saw a reporter with a long gun and a short cannon outside. Ma corrected his bow tie, opened the door and got out of the car. The flash light came on instantly, which was extremely dazzling. He just blinked his eyes, revealing that he had practiced in front of the mirror. With countless bright smiles, she stretched out her two long straight legs and stepped on the slightly soft red carpet.

Thanks to the rigorous military training, Matthew almost completely corrected the way he used to walk, which was a bit sloppy. With the addition of an extremely well-fitting formal dress, the whole person was quite imposing.

"Who is this man?"

There is a special photo-taking area at the end of the red carpet. The camera lens in the hands of reporter Fatus from the entertainment page of "Los Angeles Times" closely followed Matthew. He only felt that this person was unusually photogenic, and he couldn't help asking the familiar reporter on the left. "Do you know who he is? Is it a model from Europe?"

"Definitely not a model from Europe!"

Before the reporter was asked, a female reporter on the right of Fatus said, "The male models in Europe are almost all GAY!"

He pointed to Matthew, "Where is his ruthless and powerful masculinity!"

The female reporter seemed to admire Matthew very much, and murmured, "Long legs and wide shoulders, tall and straight body, three-dimensional features, stern expression, extraordinary bearing... He is simply the male god in my heart..."

She mumbled, but her hands didn't stop for a moment, and she took a lot of photos in an instant.

"I know this person." The reporter on the left of Fatus was from "Entertainment Weekly", remembering the promotion that Weekly made with the "Band of Brothers" crew a while ago, "He should be called Matthew Horner, not a model, a young man who just debuted The actor, who was rumored to have an affair with Britney, was on the set of Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg's 'Band of Brothers', as if there was a part in Gladiator..."

"It sounds like a very good resume." Fatus put down the camera originally, and after hearing what the reporter from "Entertainment Zhou Kai" said, he raised the camera and pointed it at Matthew, "He seems to be a young actor with great potential. "

The surrounding reporters raised their cameras and aimed at Matthew for another shot.

During that period of military training, Matthew benefited a lot, and his conditions were good. Walking on the red carpet, he looked imposing.

The reaction of movie fans was not very enthusiastic. Hollywood has never lacked handsome guys and beauties. There is only one criterion for how enthusiastically they treat stars, and that is fame.

Compared to the people in front of him, Matthew can only be regarded as a nobody.

However, Matthew walked the red carpet very slowly, just like the actor in front of him, such a red carpet opportunity is very rare for them, so naturally they want to stay on it for a while, attract more attention from fans, and let the media shoot more some photos...

Although it doesn't move forward step by step, Matthew is also slower than walking. No matter how the fans respond, he will wave to both sides from time to time. If he finds that the flashing light is on, he will immediately show a friendly and natural smile.

Crying and laughing are the basic skills of an actor.

When he was about a third of the way to the red carpet, Matthew suddenly noticed that there was a fan on the left holding a promotional poster of the barbarian leader, thinking of what Helen Herman had explained yesterday, he hurriedly walked over.

There were seven or eight young fans, three or four holding different posters.

They were a little confused when they saw Matthew coming over, obviously they didn't know who Matthew was.

There was a burst of cheers at the end of the red carpet. The seven or eight people were okay. The people around them looked over there, and it was obvious that another person walked on the red carpet. Judging from the cheers, he was still a famous person.

Matthew walked closer, the seven or eight young fans were still confused, and one of the girls was more clever, and quickly took out a pen and stuffed it over, which also relieved Matthew's embarrassment that he was not aware of.

A boy next to her handed over the book in his hand. Matthew unscrewed the pen to sign on it, pointed to the barbarian poster, and said, "That's me."

"Oh..." the girl replied casually.

Although the rest of the people couldn't understand the situation, they stuffed their autographs one after another.

The fan who held the poster of the barbarian leader also handed the poster to Matthew, who signed his name on it in turn. His writing ability is not very good, and the words he wrote are a bit ugly. Fortunately, the star signatures are basically all The ghost painting, a line of letters was written in a twisted manner by him, and at first glance it looks very individual.

Matthew returned the signature pen to the girl, nodded to her with a smile, and turned back to the red carpet.

"Who is he?" the fan holding the barbarian poster asked the girl, "Why don't you know him?"

The girl put away the signature book and shook her head, "I don't know who he is either."

The seven or eight people quickly threw Matthew behind their heads, turned to look at the other side of the red carpet, and shouted to an actor who was approaching, "Joaquin! Joaquin! Joaquin..."

Hearing the louder and louder shouts behind, Matthew also glanced back. This person he had seen on the "Gladiator" crew was the star actor second only to Russell Crowe in this project. He seemed to be called Joaquin- phoenix.

Matthew is still very slow to walk the red carpet. His thought is very simple. He should spend as much time in front of fans and media as possible to increase his exposure.

After walking more than ten meters, a staff member responsible for maintaining the order of fans on both sides came over quietly after receiving a notification from the intercom.

He moved closer to Matthew and reminded in a low voice, "Sir, please hurry up."

Matthew's face was thick enough, and he still had a sunny smile on his face. There was no embarrassment at all. As if he didn't hear the staff's reminder, he continued to walk forward, but his feet accelerated.

Being urged to do such a thing once is enough.

Soon, he entered the interview area, but reporters showed little interest in him, and many people were waiting for Joaquin Phoenix to come over.

"Matthew Horner!"

Suddenly, a woman shouted loudly among the reporters, "Look this way! Look this way!"

Matthew almost smiled and looked towards the side where the voice came from, only to see the flashing light on, and then an unusually tall woman squeezed out from among the reporters.

It's Elena Boyar.

Seeing Yelena Boyar coming, a few reporters also came over, but most of the reporters were standing at the entrance of the interview area, obviously waiting for Joaquin Phoenix behind.

Although Matthew is a little envious, he will not be unbalanced in his heart. Joaquin Phoenix far surpasses him in every aspect, and the two are not on the same level at all.

"How did it feel to walk the red carpet for the first time?" Elena Boyar handed the small tape recorder to Matthew.

There are other reporters around, Matthew must answer seriously, and said with a smile, "Very excited! Very special! Very excited!"

Because he just walked too slowly on the red carpet, Joaquin Phoenix entered the interview area at this time, and the reporters immediately dropped Matthew and ran over.

Not only them, Irina Boyar shrugged at Matthew, "I'm going to catch the hot news."

Matthew nodded, "Go ahead."

Jelena Boyar also joined the interview with Joaquin Phoenix.

After taking a look over there, Matthew didn't stop, and strode into the Hollywood Chinese Theater. Because the role he played was too light and his personal reputation was too small, the crew did not invite him to take part in the routine group photo at the premiere. Under the guidance of the staff, he walked directly into the projection hall of the theater.

His seat is in the third row. Half of the seats in this row are some actors who are not heavy in the crew, and the other half are invited guests.

Like Matthew, those actors didn't take part in the group photo, they all sat here waiting for the movie to start showing.

On the other side, there were quite a few people sitting in the seats of the guests at the screening, and some of them still looked familiar faces. Unfortunately, there were many people in the middle, so Matthew couldn't get close. He saw that there were no familiar actors on either side, so he went. After going to the toilet, come back and simply sit on the seat and wait for the movie to start.

This is the second film he has acted in, and unlike the first film where the passerby appeared for less than five seconds, he still has some sense of presence in this film.
