Superstar

Chapter 1174: Self-sacrifice

Hugo was talking and laughing with Andrew with a relaxed face. Hearing the sound, he turned his head and saw the worry on David Fincher's face. He couldn't help but laughed, "David, don't worry, it's okay."

To be honest, it is almost impossible that there will be no negative news like Tom Hanks and Paul Newman in this three-centre field in Hollywood. Because negative news itself is an integral part of Hollywood. What's more, even if there is no big-name rumors this time, the negative news on Hugo is indispensable. One more time will not be bad, and one less time will not make much difference.

Compared to Hugo, the other person in the crew, the other people in the crew have a worried look. Even Andrew, who was talking and laughing just now, couldn't help but cast his sights at Hugo seriously. This made Hugo dumbfounded. He still had to solemnly reiterate, "Don't worry, I'm really fine. I have discussed this matter with the agent, and there is no major problem."

When Hugo told Rick about this, Rick unexpectedly supported it after careful consideration. It could even be said to encourage Hugo to do so.

In fact, in the past few months, Rick has repeatedly felt that Hugo has initially realized the situation of "being cold in the sky", from the so-called worries of the media after the release of "before sunrise" to the joint efforts of the brokerage company to the endeavour elite. The pressure from the brokerage company, and the reaction of the media during the recent "Mission Impossible" and "Seven Deadly Sins" controversies can be noticed: Many people are gleefully expecting Hugo to fall.

If this situation continues to develop, it will become pressure. For example, the victory of "Sleepless in Seattle" or the "Yihai Xiongfeng" style has made people exclaim again and again in the past, but perhaps in the near future, the "speed of life and death" and the "pulp fiction" style victory will also be Can not inspire more enthusiasm in the media, people will take Hugo's victory for granted, and put forward more demands. Once Hugo fails, it is almost conceivable that the land will collapse.

Therefore, Hugo needs to decompress.

After confirming that he missed "Mission Impossible" on Oscars night, Rick's first reaction was not to remedy "Mission Impossible", but to slash the mess and choose "Seven Deadly Sins", which may not mean that Hugo was relieved of pressure. , Let people see that Hugo is also at a disadvantage in the face of Tom Cruise. The "New York Post"'s related "worry" report after the incident was what Rick was happy to see, so he not only did not stop it, but also did not let the good newspaper refute it.

The big-name turmoil this time is bound to arouse the supreme enthusiasm of the media, but for Rick, it is more convenient for him to be behind the scenes by throwing out a negative news to the media than fabricating facts out of nothing. Take control. What's more, to put it bluntly, Hugo is indeed qualified to be a big name, as long as the news report is not too outrageous, Rick will not stop it.

In Hollywood, a good agent is even more important than the talent of the artist himself, which is not just to say.

The serious expressions on Hugo's faces made David and Andrew a little more relieved, but Hugo also knew that this matter would still not be able to relieve them for a while, so Hugo simply changed the subject, "David, you say me Do you want to shave your head for the character?"

Hugo's sudden words made David stunned, "What?"

Hugo chuckled and explained, "Didn't you say before that you wanted Michael Staple to play Anonymous? Because you think his temperament is very similar to Anonymous."

David nodded unexpectedly. He didn't expect that Hugo remembered an idea when chatting with Hugo before.

"I have been thinking carefully afterwards, what exactly is your so-called temperament." Hugo went on to say, which made David smile a little embarrassingly. "I read the script repeatedly later and sketched a picture in my mind. The image of Anonymous, you know, first of all, he shouldn’t be so prominent. He looks ordinary and doesn’t have much sharp light, so he won’t be noticed. Second, he’s calm, and at the same time very polite, even okay. It is very wise, but under these temperaments, it also possesses some frightening qualities."

Both David and Andrew were attracted by Hugo’s words. Although one of them is a director and the other is a screenwriter, their understanding of the role is different from that of Hugo, because the actors need to get into the whole role, but they need What is the whole picture. Therefore, Hugo's understanding of Anonymous is far more profound than that of the two of them, and even makes Andrew, who is a screenwriter, shine.

Hugo has been carefully analyzing the role of Anonymous in the past period of time. He took the original image of Kevin Spacey out of his mind and worked hard to reconstruct an Anonymous.

The childhood of Anonymous should be very gloomy, maybe not the kind of extreme pain, but full of negative thoughts. Maybe he is a single-parent family, his father is unwilling to assume family responsibilities and flees, while his mother is struggling to make ends meet. He lives in a shabby and shabby house and stares at his mother's bed coldly. One after another hurriedly appeared above, secretly resenting the grandfather and grandmother who ignored their mother.

The ridicule and sarcasm of other children in the school made him try to break out. He may have been angry, confronted, and fight, but obviously his thin body was unable to form an effective confrontation. The end of each resistance is not only suppressed, but also accompanied by Then came more indifference and ridicule.

So he decided to change his life on his own. Maybe he had studied hard and wanted to use knowledge to change his destiny, and he did succeed—at least he was admitted to a top university, left his hometown, and came to a big city to become a graduate of a top university. , I found a white-collar job. In the eyes of many people, it is already very difficult. Because he not only did not abandon himself, but also made a breakthrough, was reborn in Nirvana, and lived the life his mother and friends in his hometown expected.

He has great expectations for himself, he wants to use his own power to change his destiny, and he wants to change the world even more. He has succeeded once, so he believes he can succeed the second time. But the reality is cruel. The fact is that after coming to the big city, he is still an ordinary member of all living beings, there is nothing special. Throw him into the crowd, no one will notice him at all.

Although he has a good position and salary, he also tries his best to portray himself as the type everyone envy: living a surplus, having a bank deposit, having a higher education, having an elegant conversation, a good degree of advancement and retreat, and a handsome gentleman. This mask deceived everyone, but in fact, it could not deceive himself. Only he himself knows that all these are just appearances. In the bones, he is still not the most special one.

Even if he works hard to read more books to make himself erudite; even if he learns from the upper class and makes himself elegant; even if he suppresses his personality and makes himself tolerant and optimistic; even if he devoutly believes in God, let He became peaceful and loyal... But the reality is that he is still a dispensable member of society, and in the lives of other people and in his own life, he has always been lonely.

More importantly, he is still an ordinary person, he has no ability to change his life, let alone the **** world-because this society is so disappointing, his family, his origin and his environment are too It's disappointing. Therefore, Wuming is eager to succeed for the second time, eager to rely on his own strength to change society, eager to let the world remember his name, eager to become the savior of this society. So there are "seven deadly sins."

Such an anonymous person is actually very complicated. His extreme inferiority makes him extremely proud, and his down-and-coming background makes him hate all the dirty things at the bottom of society, because these are the parts he hopes to forget and desire to eradicate. The darkness in his heart has been melted into the blood, but he is seamlessly hidden by him, just like his ordinary, ordinary appearance, ordinary clothes, ordinary work, everything can not be noticed by his special . But he is very smart, he is calm, he is paranoid, he is a gentleman, these are the habits he cultivated in the process of growing up, all this makes him a perfect killer.

Not noticeable, but smart enough.

Hugo almost wrote an autobiography for Anonymous. He also sketched in his mind the image of himself as Anonymous, ordinary white shirt and black suit pants, but because he was too conservative, he added a white t-shirt to it. At the end, it is quite satisfactory, without any tailoring or design. It is the most ordinary image of an office worker; a pair of calm and open eyes, a humble and friendly smile on the corners of the mouth, shoulders will shrink a little, appear a little humble, all movements are not Not slow, even revealing some sluggishness, but the arrogance and indomitableness in the bones can be glimpsed in that slow movement...

But Hugo discovered an important thing. He still lacks a certain temperament. This temperament is not a defect in acting skills, but an overall feeling, which seems to be a little bit more. Then Hugo realized: his hair.

Hugo's hair hasn't been cut for a while, and it's longer now. Generally speaking, long hair tends to appear feminine, while short hair is relatively tough~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Although this is not a theorem, it is generally true. It's like when Hugo starred in "Yihai Xiongfeng" and "Schindler's List", they were actually short haircuts.

The styling itself is part of the acting, which is undeniable.

Hugo originally wanted to cut the board, but when you think about it, the board will make his facial features look sharper. Even if he keeps focusing on his eyes, the effect is still not good. Because Anonymous is different from Amon Goss, Amon needs sharp eyes, but Anonymous does not.

This reminds Hugo of the Michael Staple mentioned by David. Michael is a bald head. Hugo suddenly realized that if he shaved his head, the circular arc of his forehead would inevitably weaken the three-dimensional and sharp facial features, and it would also be more in line with the image of Anonymous who does not pay attention to taking care of himself. The most important thing is that the inch head reminds people of soldiers, but the bald head is more evil. When Hugo can't use his eyes to reveal too much emotion, a bald head can help a lot.

No wonder David was impressed with Michael before, and in terms of temperament, he is indeed similar.

That’s why Hugo had this idea, “I think I’m still too handsome, and my facial features are too conspicuous. Maybe after shaved my head, the whole temperament will be different.”
