Superstar

Chapter 65: Doomed opponent

   Hugo and Brad are in different situations.

   Brad's career is now on the rise, and he also has a great agent, Martin Baum. Martin was able to inquire about many things for Brad, including this time he grabbed food from Tom Cruise of the same company and wanted to compete for the position of the hero of "Yihai Xiongfeng." There are opportunities. To say something bad is to pry into the corner of his colleagues, so Brad must have some understanding of the situation of "Yihai Xiongfeng". This also makes Brad will inevitably be more eager when facing Rob, he wants to get this role, he wants to play this script, because this is a rare opportunity.

In addition, Martin’s strength must also be reflected in the control of Brad. Now Brad is fledgling. He does not have enough power to fight Martin, so he can only follow Martin’s instructions and hope to get more. Chance. In today's audition process, Brad's attitude and words can more or less see Martin's shadow, which is why.

But Hugo is different. He is now an abandoned son whose father doesn’t love his mother. The original agent Lang abandoned him. Joseph is just a newcomer; three consecutive films failed, and he was “favored” by the Golden Raspberry Award. If it weren't for "Scenting Fragrance and Knowing Women" as a bridge, today's audition would not have his share at all. But even so, Hugo is still at an absolute disadvantage, not to mention that Tom is currently the biggest favorite, even if compared with Brad, Hugo does not have any advantage.

Therefore, Hugo chose to tell the truth. His understanding of "Yihai Xiongfeng" came from the soul that he traveled through. In reality, he really didn't know anything about this movie. The only thing that drove him to come for an interview. The reason is to seize the opportunity! And Rob Reiner directed, Jack Nicholson starred, is the biggest bargaining chip of this work, but also the biggest attraction to Hugo.

   We can't say whether the audition strategy of Hugo and Brad is better or worse. We can only see which actor Rob prefers-provided that Tom's contract is not successfully negotiated, otherwise both of them will have to fight.

After that, Rob never mentioned anything about the movie, and he started chatting directly. This was the time for Martin to show his talents. Joseph's immaturity was immediately revealed in front of Martin, although Joseph has been trying to maintain the topic. , But the experience, youth, and wrist gap kept the initiative in the conversation in Martin's hands.

   About 9:30, Rob got up and planned to leave. The four people watched Rob get into the car and stood looking at each other in the parking lot.

  Hugo and Brad stood face to face, there was still a faint spark between their eyes. Today is different from the last competition in "Dahe Love". This time the two people are on the same starting line. Not only did Brad lose his previous advantage, he was overwhelmed by Hugo. Although it was not stated clearly, everyone knew that Tracey played a decisive role in the audition for "Dahe Love". In other words, Brad lost to Yu in his own strength competition. Fruitful.

Not only did Hugo take back a city and avenge the failure of the last "Love in the River" audition, but also made Brad plant somersault today, and the smell of gunpowder between the two people became stronger invisibly. .

Brad is four years older than Hugo. He is 29 years old this year. In fact, in Hollywood, the real outbreak of male actors generally has to wait until the age of 30, or even 40, before reaching the golden age. So far The age of the Oscar actor has never broken away from the three characters, and the average age is as high as 45 years old.

But this also puts young people over 20 years old and before 30 years old in an awkward position. On the one hand, they can't compete with middle-aged people over 30 in the role of deep connotation. On the other hand, they are not as good as ten. Children under the age of eight have potential. Young people at this age have immature acting skills, limited roles, lack of connections, and lack of rich works. Therefore, at this stage, most young people are playing tricks in TV dramas and want to become movies. The leading actor is not an easy task.

   Brad has been playing a supporting role, and Hugo’s really successful "Death Poetry Society" is also a supporting role, and Robin Williams, who was thirty-eight at the time, was the real protagonist. It is definitely rare to see an actor like Tom Cruise who has become popular at the age of 24 by relying on "High Aspirations".

   Of course, after entering the 21st century, young actors have also won their own piece of sky. More and more types of youth films have made young people equally competitive. However, at least in the early 90s and now, opportunities for young actors are relatively rare. Johnny Depp (Johnny. Depp), Robert Downey Jr. (Robert Downey. Jr.), Nicolas Cage (Nicolas. Cage), Keanu Reeves (Keanu. Reeves)...Currently thirty These are just the few young actors who have made some famous names under the age of the year. They are not many, far from being a group.

As a result, the competition between Hugo and Brad, a group of actors, became more and more fierce. First it was "Dahe Lian" and now it is "Yihai Xiongfeng". It is conceivable that there will be no less positive contests between the two people in the future. . However, no matter what happens in the future, at least the current "Yihai Xiongfeng" audition, Hugo only has the upper hand. Before Rob makes a decision, there are still variables.

   Brad bit the gum in his mouth one after another, and looked at Hugo flatly, without saying anything, but the blazing fire in his eyes couldn't be more obvious. In the face of such competition, Hugo will never back down. He also calmly looked at the past, with a relaxed smile at the corners of his mouth, as if there was a seemingly non-existent smile, that kind of strong self-confidence did not show any weakness.

Martin, who was standing next to him, said to Joseph without a smile, "Tonight's performance is very good." The tone is exactly the gesture of a senior pointing to the younger generation, "but you still need a little luck." The subtext is here. Said that it was Brad that finally got this role, because Joseph's weakness was too obvious in terms of connections.

Although Joseph was robbed of the initiative during the conversation just now, it did not mean that he was incapable. On the contrary, he was able to persevere under Martin's deliberate squeeze. This shows Joseph's excellent performance, "Luck, everyone needs. If God is willing to give me good luck, I will be very happy to follow. "Luck, in fact, like opportunity, is a part of strength in itself, and no one will have too much. "Of course, Hugo's performance tonight is indeed a bit surprising, who knows if it is a good thing?"

Joseph went to poke Martin’s scar again. Tonight everyone was shocked by Hugo’s talk. Martin obviously has more ideas for Hugo. For the brokerage industry, there is no absolute loyalty, only absolute loyalty. If Martin can put forward better terms, it is not impossible to poach Hugo away. Therefore, at this time, Martin's face stiffened by Joseph's stabbing, but he said more meaningfully, "Hugo is really good."

   "Then we will leave first, and I hope that everything will be well when we meet next time." Although Martin was talking politely, he still satirizes Hugo's current situation at all.

Joseph was not angry, but chuckled, "Rob is waiting for your call, then I won't bother you." This sentence is actually saying that Brad can't compare with Hugo. Yes, so Martin has to go behind the scenes to be able to win. This is definitely Chi Guoguo's face. After speaking, Joseph ignored Martin's obscure expression in the moonlight, and Hugo turned around and walked in the direction of his car.

Brad didn’t say anything, never did. He just stared at Hugo, as if he could see a flower from Hugo’s body, but with such a simple action, he could see the cloth. Ladd's unshakable determination: Hugo, you are my competitor!

Hugo felt Brad’s sharp gaze coming from behind, and sighed slightly. If others don’t know, it’s okay. Hugo knows about Brad’s future development, which means he and Hollywood’s most famous The male **** has become a competitor, and the current situation has not been alleviated, and he has actually established an enemy, which really makes people want to help.

   However, Hugo will never admit defeat easily, even if the opponent is Brad, so what? Since he can traverse, it means that all historical trajectories can be changed. Of course, the most important thing is Hugo's own efforts. If he gives up first, then the result is doomed without competition at all. People are determined to conquer the sky. All this requires is hard work!

   "Huh, tonight's performance is really terrible." Joseph returned to the car and complained annoyedly, obviously he was very dissatisfied with his performance just now.

   Hugo chuckled, "I think my performance is pretty good."

Joseph next to    rolled his eyes, "You know I'm not talking about you", and then began to reverse.

"Ha, but I was the one who participated in the audition, wasn't it?" Hugo knew that Joseph still wanted to play more of his role, but to be honest, in front of Martin's such a strong agent, it is not the same to have an outstanding performance. It was an easy task, so Hugo turned his attention to himself, "I think Rob still has a very good impression of me. Or is it all my own illusion?"

Hugo's ridicule finally made Joseph's mouth hook up, "I think so too." Joseph turned the car upside down and looked towards the road, and then the two of them saw the same through the car window. Brad and Martin are standing in the parking lot. At this time, Brad and Martin's expressions are not very good. It seems that Martin is expressing his dissatisfaction with Brad for the audition just now.

   But when Joseph drove past, Martin and Brad both stopped and cast their sights. The four people's eyes crossed, and then they missed completely as the car moved on.

   The curvature of Joseph's mouth suddenly twitched, and his mood was obviously much better.
