Chapter 207 Interview

early morning.The bright sunlight shines into the room, and a warm feeling follows.Josh opened his misty eyes, groped Carlos several times, and then climbed his shoulders to get the alarm clock by the bed.

"It's only 7 o'clock, so early." Josh yawned, unconsciously kissing Carlos on the face, "Good morning, dear."

"Good morning." Seeing Josh getting up to get dressed, Carlos's face flashed with surprise, "It's the weekend, why did you get up so early?"

Josh rubbed his nose: ""Sex Book Tycoon" has an interview event, about 10 o'clock in the morning, otherwise I want to sleep a little longer."

"Thank you." Carlos got up and put on his shirt and pants, "Do you want me to go with you?"

Josh shook his head lightly: "The new movie promotion period is like this, I'm used to it. You should sleep a little longer, today is the weekend, you can go to the street to watch movies, have a cup of coffee, eat a meal... don't Spend all your time at work, or you'll just keep getting older."

"I don't plan to work overtime today, I'm just used to getting up early."

Josh shrugged: "What a terrible habit."

"After being with you, I have changed a lot. A few years ago, I could even get up at 5 o'clock in the morning and work until 9 o'clock in the evening." Carlos smiled.

"I swear to God, I can't stay with someone like that for more than a second." Josh put his arms around Carlos' shoulders, "I'm glad you changed."

A trace of tenderness appeared in Carlos' eyes: "That's because I met someone I really love, and I am willing to make changes for him."

"Me too." After breakfast, the two went out together. Carlos went to the nearest supermarket to pick out Josh's favorite ribs, and Josh put on a baseball cap and denim jacket and appeared at the door of the bookstore agreed with the newspaper.

This is the first media interview he has accepted this year, from the "Los Angeles Times", his old friend.

"Glad you did another interview, it's been a long time since the last interview, but I still feel like yesterday. Josh, you're getting better and better!"

Josh grinned: "Thank you, Sherman."

Sherman Byrne opened the pen cap: "To save your time, shall we start our interview now?"

"No problem." Josh ordered a drink for Sherman Byrne, and the two started the interview in a pleasant atmosphere.Perhaps because Josh is a native of California, the local media in Los Angeles always favor him more, especially the "Los Angeles Times". No matter what kind of doubts Josh encounters, this newspaper always firmly supports him. It was also the reason why Qiao Shen was willing to leave the interview opportunity to this newspaper.

"What prompted you to take on the role of Larry Flynt? You know, the outside world still has doubts about your choice, because Larry Flynt himself is a controversial figure."

Josh replied: "Controversy means challenges. I think as an actor, I don't have to play characters similar to my own. I can challenge myself to play characters that the outside world thinks Walter will never play." That's what I'm going to do next, Larry Flynt."

"Is that why you acted in "Speed", "Schindler's List" and "The Shawshank Redemption" before?"

Josh nodded: "Of course. There are also reasons why the scripts of these movies are very attractive to me. It turns out that my choice is not wrong, and they are indeed very good movies."

"As we all know, Larry Flynt made his fortune by selling pornographic literature. Is there a similar plot in "Sex Book Tycoon"?" Sherman Byrne asked curiously, "The MPAA rated this movie as R rating, which means that the movie may lose a large part of its fan base."

MPAA is the English abbreviation of Motion Picture Association of America.The main members of this association are jointly served by the presidents and chairmen of several major film companies in the United States, and the film rating system is formulated by it.

In the United States, movies are rated G, PG, PG-13, R, and N.

The G rating is the general rating, that is, movies that everyone can watch.

The PG rating is also an ordinary rating, but occasionally some uncomfortable pictures are produced, and some content may not be suitable for children to watch.

PG-13 is a movie not suitable for children under the age of 13.

The R rating is restricted, and children under the age of 17 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to watch.However, the R rating seems to have a lot of restrictions, but there are many classics, such as "The Silence of the Lambs"

, "Death Comes", "The Shining" and so on.

Josh immediately showed a shy smile: "There is indeed a little factor in this aspect. After all, this movie is about Larry Flynt, of course we can't completely ignore his career, and the case of Larry Flynt Why can it cause such a big disturbance in the United States? This is undoubtedly closely related to his career."

"The people wanted Larry Flynt to lose, but the law judged him to be victorious, and a sex book tycoon, a demon who destroyed young people, was on the side of the law." Josh spread his hands, "This is the interesting part of this story , in the movie theater, the audience can get the answer he wants, whether he supports freedom where chaos and filth coexist, or pure and clean restraint."

"Sounds a little esoteric, but I got interested in the movie Sex Book Tycoon. There are a lot of courtroom arguments in many movies, including Scent of a Woman, which you starred in, Josh. I guess " There must be something similar in Sex Book Tycoon, because Larry Flynt is a real person, not a fictional character."

"Yes. But if you want to ask me the difference between "Sex Book Tycoon" and "Scent of a Woman" court scene, I won't tell you."

"Okay. I heard that you are currently participating in Steven Spielsberg's new film. That film is a collaboration with Tom Hanks. It is also a war film?"

Josh nodded: "Yes, it's a war movie that tells the story after the Normandy landing. I can't reveal more about this movie, but I can promise everyone that it is definitely an excellent movie. The scenes, the touching plot... Although my role has not yet started, I can't wait to see the finished film."

"That's obviously impossible."

"Life is fun only when you dream once in a while."

After the interview, Josh rushed home and caught up with the ribs made by Carlos—the other party specially learned the Chinese method of ribs from the gourmet website. The moment the hot ribs came out of the oven, the aroma immediately set Josh Taste buds conquered.

He couldn't wait to take a bite, it was absolutely delicious.

"If you can eat such delicious food every day, even if the filming is in Ireland, the haiku is a work meal. Even if the filming location is in Ireland, the crew's work meal is still a headache."

"Is it that exaggerated?" Carlos frowned slightly, "You don't look thin."

Josh gave him a blank look: "You've lost a lot of weight, are your eyes scanners? Can you tell?"

The corner of Carlos' mouth moved, as if he was saying something, but he didn't make a sound.

"What did you say?" Josh flew over with a sharp glance.

"I said..." Carlos' voice became smaller and weaker, "I didn't see it, I felt it. You really are not thin at all, and you are fat..."

Josh: "..."

Between the cruel truth and the beautiful lie, what should he choose?

As an honest, just, brave, and kind person, of course he faces his own heart and chooses beautiful lies.

Carlos was in a daze, how dare he say he was fat? ? ?

This is simply the biggest challenge to the dignity of the head of Josh's family.

Josh seems to have forgotten that the house he lives in now belongs to Carlos, the bed he sleeps on belongs to Carlos, even the ribs he is eating at the moment are bought by Carlos at the supermarket, he just eats and drinks for nothing Sleeping in vain and not giving money.

So that night, Carlos once again experienced Josh's dignity personally.

"Try it again, have I gained weight?" Josh said with a smile in his eyes and a knife in his tone.

Carlos tried to breathe calmly, sweat rolled down his forehead, his eyes were foggy, and he could only rely on his reason to answer in a low voice: "No, you're not fat at all, you're thin, woo..."

After getting a satisfactory answer, Josh slowly stopped.

After staying in Los Angeles for more than half a month, Josh returned to the mentality of "Saving Private Ryan". The filming is proceeding in an orderly manner. It's almost time for Ryan's part.

"Sex Book Tycoon" is still being promoted, but the film is clearly an award-winning film, and Sony Columbia does not have much confidence in the film's box office.After all, no matter what, Larry Flynt is still a scumbag that the North American people hate.Even with a popular actor like Josh in the role, people can't change their distaste for Larry Flynt, let alone spend money in theaters to support a movie that tells such a scumbag story.

Most importantly, the protagonist of this documentary is still alive, and Larry Flynt is still unscrupulous in the media, selling pornographic magazines that abuse young people.If he is no longer alive, the public will probably eliminate their prejudice against him and treat such a controversial figure rationally.

However, Larry Flynt still lived a long life. Until Donald Trump, the big-mouthed president of the United States, took office, the sex book tycoon was still the headline figure in the North American media. A reward advertisement, offering a reward of 1000 million US dollars, soliciting black information about Donald Trump, encouraging people who know Trump's black information to provide him with information in order to remove this president who he doesn't like at all.
