Superstar

At ten o'clock, the launch ceremony of the "Seven Deadly Sins" officially began. Sure enough, as Nicholas expected, things are strange! Because Hugo actually did not attend the press conference.

When the opening ceremony began, Hugo was still there. He and a large number of actors including Morgan, Brad, and Gwyneth walked forward, followed behind David Fincher in a bustling manner, and declared "Seven Deadly Sins." "The shooting officially started. But when the staff came forward to receive their champagne from the champagne tower, Hugo was drowned in the crowd. When the press conference began, Hugo never showed up again.

This almost immediately attracted the attention of all media reporters, because there is no doubt that Hugo is the top presence among all the characters present. Without Hugo, it is estimated that more than two-thirds of the reporters on the scene would leave— —Just a Brad Pitt is not so attractive.

Everyone was speculating about what was going on. The press conference announced the start, and the first question was eagerly asked, "What about Hugo Lancaster?" Although this question did not even get the host. With permission, some reporters stood up and asked questions first.

However, neither the reporter's colleagues nor the crew members stopped the reporter, because everyone knew that this was bound to be the first problem.

Producer Gianni Nunali said with a smile, "Thank you for your caring about the crew. Presumably Hugo knows that everyone cares about him so much, and he will be very grateful." Gianni said casually, appearing confident. , This gave the reporters a little peace of mind: at least it shows that it was not an accident, it was expected by the crew. "Hugo is a little uncomfortable, so I went to the lounge to rest first. The doctor in our crew has already checked. If it's okay, Hugo will show up later."

Most reporters breathed a sigh of relief, apparently believing Gianni's rhetoric. But Nicholas frowned slightly. When he saw Hugo just now, Hugo hadn't had any problems, and his face was ruddy and his expression was normal. How could he suddenly fall ill? Although sometimes it is uncontrollable for sudden illnesses, Nicholas still thinks things are a little strange.

As Hugo did not attend, all the firepower was fired at Brad in an instant, which made Brad quite uncontrollable.

"Brad, how do you feel about joining this work?"

"Brad, what exactly attracted you to this work? Are you satisfied with the cast of cast?"

"Brad, what kind of role do you play, and how do you feel about playing against other actors?"

The problem at the beginning was quite regular and convergent, which made Brad very satisfied. Hugo did not attend the press conference, which actually made him the biggest focus. This is a good thing for Brad. , A rare good thing. Before that, whether it was "Interview with Vampires at Night" or "The Years of Love", his demeanor was shared by others. Today, Brad has finally truly experienced the heart of the attention.

But Brad soon began to struggle. Although New Line Film Company only invited fifteen media outlets, more than 40 media outlets and nearly a hundred journalists finally arrived on the scene. This battle was really too much. It's getting bigger, and the reporters' questions are getting sharper and sharper, causing Brad to be in a hurry.

"Brad, can you talk about Hugo's role in the movie? What do you think of him as your opponent's actor?"

Brad wanted to roll his eyes in his heart. Why did he answer Hugo's question? Even if Hugo is not there, the reporter can ask the director or producer or screenwriter, no matter how he can't turn it!

Brad tried his best to suppress his impatience. When he saw David, David took the initiative to pick up the topic. "Hugo will play an important role in the movie this time, which is an indispensable part of the story. At the same time, Hugo's acting skills are also a new test, which is why Hugo is willing to take over the role."

Saying it means not saying it, a bunch of nonsense.

The reporters were obviously dissatisfied with David’s answer. Even Brad added, "I have a lot of rivalry with Hugo in the movie, and I am looking forward to it now." This is equivalent to not answering the reporter’s question. : Hugo's role is still foggy.

"Brad, this time you will work with Morgan Freeman and Hugo Lancaster in this movie. How do you see the competition between them?"

"Morgan and Hugo are both excellent actors. I think this shooting opportunity is very rare. It will be a good opportunity to communicate with each other. I will take it well." Brad had anticipated this problem a long time ago, although He was a little irritable at this time, but he still patiently replied.

Note that Brad uses "communication", not "learning". Communication means that the two sides are equal, and Brad puts himself on the same level as Morgan and Hugo.

Morgan sitting on the side received the signal from Gianni, so he took the initiative to stand up for Brad, "Brad is also a very good actor, I have long been looking forward to working with him. I was also with Yu before. After discussing it, I think this shooting process will be very interesting."

Unfortunately, Morgan failed to rescue. The reporter not only did not divert his attention, but continued to be aggressive, "Morgan and Hugo both won Oscar nominations, they are both statuette-level actors, Brad, do you feel pressured now?"

Brad tried to take a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. He should have expected such a situation long ago, right? So he shouldn’t be pushed to disrupt the rhythm by the reporter’s step by step, “Of course there is pressure. The role of Mills is not easy. There will be more pressure, but I hope to turn pressure into motivation and present a wonderful performance."

As soon as I heard it, Martin had killed Brader countless times, and the answer was almost perfect. The only loophole is that Brad only mentioned Morgan but not Hugo.

"Brad, what do you think of the head-on competition with Hugo? Both of you are currently the most popular actors. Hugo's acting performance is obvious to all. Now you are going to compete with Hugo on the same stage. Do you feel nervous? What do you think of Hugo, a competitor?"

Now the reporter has simply stopped covering up, directly throwing out the essential problem, which left Brad no room to escape, and at the same time made Brad's anger keep going up: obviously Hugo is not here, but almost three points The second problem is all related to Hugo, which makes it really difficult for Brad to remain calm.

"Nervous? Of course not. Even if you are performing on the same stage as Marlon Brando, nervousness won't help." Brad almost squeezed his voice out of his throat, but still tried to maintain a smile. Let the internal injury begin, "I think I should focus on my performance, this is the wisest choice. Of course Hugo is a very good actor, I believe he will have a very good performance."

The subtext seems to be saying that Hugo is indeed very good, but it is not as good as Malone, and he is not cooperating with Malone, so why be nervous?

The reporters are all canines with a keen sense of smell. Although Brad concealed it well, he still made them feel the opportunity. So another reporter stood up and asked, "Brad, you can tell us about it." Is the role of Hugo? Hugo and you, who is the protagonist and who is the supporting role?"

Brad finally couldn't help it at this time. An absent actor appeared almost successfully in every question. This is ridiculous, "I am the actor! I am the actor!" Brad blurted out, his voice could not help but rose, making people vividly feel his impulse and explosion.

But at this time Brad is no longer as stunned as he was. He quickly realized his impulse, let alone at this time, from David to Andrew to Gianni, almost everyone has their sights projected on. On his body, he clearly felt the tingling sensation on his back, like sitting on pins and needles. So he immediately suppressed his voice slightly, and said stiffly, "Hugo played a very important role, uh... it is very important to the whole story..."

"Hugo and Brad, and I have a lot of opponents, including Gwyneth." Morgan was the one who rescued Brad. His unhurried tone formed a sharp contrast with Brad, but the scene The tense atmosphere gradually eased, "We all think that giving this role to Hugo is the most reassuring. I believe Hugo will give another wonderful performance again."

Morgan was a good one to round up Brad, especially Morgan emphasized that Hugo and several other major characters have opponents, which put the reporters into chaos. Since Brad is the leading actor, what about Hugo? Is it really a dual protagonist like "Interview with the Vampire"? This also makes sense.

But on-site reporters all keenly caught Brad’s impatience ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and Morgan, David, Gianni and other crew members are secretive. It seems that Hugo’s absence is not unusual, but it seems Everyone is covering up, not willing to talk more. This in the end is why?

Recalling carefully, Hugo appeared at the opening ceremony, but was absent from the press conference; the producer covered Hugo, but the cast members were indignant... This seems to illustrate a fact: Hugo is playing big cards!

It must be so, how could it be possible to suddenly fall ill after the opening ceremony! It must have been Hugo playing big cards and refusing to attend the press conference. That's why the atmosphere was very stiff. The reporters obviously ignored the factors that caused them to fan the flames.

Therefore, another reporter stood up and asked, "Now that the press conference is halfway through, why has Hugo still not appeared?" The reporter added thoughtfully, "If it is really uncomfortable, I still have to go. The hospital checked it out."

Faced with this question, Gianni looked at David meaningfully, and finally said, “Thank you for the reporter’s concern. As a member of the crew, Hugo will definitely protect his health. If he feels better, He will definitely appear at the press conference."

Gianni's reaction confirmed the reporters' speculation!
