Superstar

　　 Joseph saw Hugo's expression when he came out, he knew that things were not going well, he actually expected that the woman was not so easy to deal with. However, he still held a glimmer of hope, and only then insisted on letting Hugo participate in the interview of "Dahe Lian". After all, Hugo is not qualified to be picky in his current situation, and he doesn't want to end up in desperation.

　　 Originally, Joseph wanted to welcome him, because Hugo didn't seem to be in a very good state, but soon stopped because of the appearance of two provocateurs. The Hugo in front of me really looks different from before. To be precise, it is different from before last night. The Hugo now looks brighter, and the whole person's spirit is much more positive; and Hugo now looks like a handsome big boy, but he has two points less impulse and two points more sense of humor. Joseph couldn't help laughing when he heard Hugo mocking the two men.

　　 This should be a good thing, right? Joseph is not sure.

　　 Watching Hugo pass by him, Joseph hurriedly followed him, and the two entered the elevator together, leaving the noise in the corridor on the third floor. Joseph looked at Hugo carefully, as if he wanted to see through Hugo's handsome skin and explore his soul.

Joseph's eyes saw Hugo's straight hair. He frowned and looked back. His first reaction was to directly ask "What are you looking at", but Joseph's icy blue eyes almost saw through his "disguise". "Seeing the real Chen Hugo directly, this made Hugo suddenly startled, he subconsciously avoided his eyes, and stupidly placed his gaze on the number above the elevator.

With a "ding", the elevator went from the third floor to the first floor. Hugo looked at Joseph pretendingly and calmly, "Why, don't you plan to ask about today's audition process?" What is the job of an agent? Hugo doesn’t know anything about it. I used to watch the top star teams, such as makeup artists, nutritionists, and fitness coaches. I’m not going to talk about additional configurations. Just talk about the necessary agents, managers, assistants, and public relations managers. With a lot of complicated equipment, Hugo was in the mist. Taking it for granted, Hugo felt that Joseph should pay more attention to the results of his interview, which just diverted Joseph's intimidating attention.

　　 Joseph became more aware of what was wrong with Hugo. Although he took over the job of Hugo’s agent from Ron Meyer for only a year, the two people got along with each other in a different way.

Joseph didn't deliberately hide his eyes, Hugo's heart suddenly stunned. He didn't know what Hugo-Lancaster was like before he passed through, but they were absolutely impossible to carve out in one mold. Others noticed it. Abnormality is a matter of course. Hugo thought of facing the Lancaster couple in the future. It might be a good start to deal with Joseph head-on now.

　　 Thinking of this, Hugo simply looked at Joseph and said directly, "What's wrong, is there something wrong?"

　　 The elevator did not wait until the two people walked out and closed again. Although no one pressed the floor, the elevator still went up. It is estimated that someone upstairs pressed the elevator again.

　　 Joseph took a look at the Hugo in front of him carefully, his eyebrows were slightly raised, there was not much expression, and he simply said, "No. I just think you have changed a lot, not the same as before."

Hugo opened his mouth and wanted to refute, saying that he had experienced a life-and-death struggle last night, but suddenly realized that Joseph didn’t mention when he started to be different. If he took the initiative to bring it up, he obviously had something in his heart. Ghost. So, when the words rushed to his throat, he swallowed again, "Which aspect do you mean?"

Joseph saw that Hugo's behavior was very normal, he couldn't help but paused, and then he continued, "Almost all aspects, except for this face, your whole mental outlook has changed." Joseph saw Hugo's. With a warm smile, he paused, "I mean it started last night."

　　 The smile on the corner of Hugo’s mouth is still warm, like the sun at nine o’clock in the winter morning, dispelling all the cold, “Joseph, if you see **** or an angel, I think you will also change your life.”

　　 "Then you mean you saw heaven yesterday and were summoned by the Lord?" Joseph said immediately, obviously not willing to give Hugo too much time to think.

At this time, the elevator door opened with a "ding", interrupting Hugo's words. This is the eighth floor. A hotel employee stood at the door. He saw guests in the elevator and bowed politely in respect. , And then entered the elevator. The employee saw the floor number that was not specifically pressed in the elevator, so he asked, "Which floor is it up to?"

　　 "First floor." Joseph replied casually. After the employees pressed the floor number for them, they stood aside and did not speak any more.

Joseph originally thought that Hugo would take advantage of someone’s opportunity to escape the topic, but he didn’t want Hugo to continue saying, “No, just walked on the edge of life and death, wanting to cherish the current life. At least, I don’t want to be in the clouds and fog. Lost consciousness." Hugo did not say any ambitions, nor did he say any unforgettable remarks, but mocked himself with a tone of infinite regret, but it was such simple words that made Joseph quiet.

　　 Indeed, a lot of things happened last night. If the Hugo breaks and then immediately leads to these changes, nothing is surprising. Moreover, Hugo is much cuter than before. This is a positive sign, isn't it? Thinking of this, Joseph didn't take the initiative to bring up this topic anymore. Instead, he hoped that Hugo's changes would continue, and that he would not reappear again after a while.

This way to the first floor, leaving the elevator, the parking brother drove the old Volkswagen Golf, until the two left the Four Seasons Hotel, Joseph and Hugo did not speak again, each thoughtfully immersed in their own thoughts inside.

"So, you never asked about the audition just now. Did you know the result a long time ago, or did you say there was something I didn't know?" Hugo broke the silence first. He didn't know what he said just now, Joseph. Whether it was bought, but at least on the surface Joseph has no more doubts. Therefore, what Hugo has to do is to remain calm, and when nothing has happened, don't make a fuss and scare yourself, so that you can reduce Joseph's suspicion to a minimum.

　　 Hugo thought about the audition process just now. He felt that his fate of failure seemed to be doomed, and Joseph didn't even ask a word after he came out of the conference room. This is really abnormal.

　　 Joseph was driving. The Four Seasons Hotel they auditioned for today was originally the city center. It was also the morning rush hour for work, so the road was very blocked. He took a look at Hugo and then sighed in a low voice. Joseph knew that this matter could not be hidden from Hugo, which also proved from the side that his abnormal speculation about Hugo was unnecessary. He was still the original wise young man.

"Tracy is one of the producers of'Dahe Love'." Joseph avoided his sight and dared not to see Hugo, and then added, "She was picked up by Robert Redford after the project was confirmed. It was specially invited to join the crew, so I haven't received any news before."

　　Tracy? Hugo searched the memory in his mind, and his inspiration flashed, "You mean Tracy Jacobs?"

　　 There was a surprised expression on Hugo's face. He was surprised because he remembered the name and the secret hidden behind it. But in Joseph’s eyes, it turned into anger and consternation. Joseph pursed his lips slightly, "Hugo, sorry, I shouldn’t insist on letting you participate in today’s audition." Unfortunately, Joseph didn’t get Hugo’s response. Because Hugo has fallen into his own thoughts.

　　 There are unspoken rules in any industry. This is true and inevitable. Hugo knows this very well. In the United States, due to the existence of the actors' union, the protection measures for actors have been very complete, and the previous era of unspoken rules has been greatly controlled.

　　 In the current casting process, in order to avoid the appearance of black box operation, every audition requires the director, producer and agent to be present at the same time. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com The so-called producer, also known as the "producer", is the investor of the film or the person who can attract sponsors; the commercial nature of the film also determines that the producer is a film An important part of the film, has the right to participate in all matters of filming. The so-called agents include two types, one is the actor's own agent, and the other is the actor without an agent. The actors' union sends a public agent to protect the rights and interests of the actors.

　　 Casting is required by the three parties to jointly decide, which is also the biggest restriction on the operation of the black box. Even if an actor is willing to be unspoken and bribed three parties at the same time, he may not be able to get the role. Because no one can afford the responsibility for the failure of the film, the director can’t, this is the development of their own career; neither can the producer, the independent producer’s expense is their own pockets, and the affiliated producer also has a company behind it. Supervised, failure means the failure of their work; the agent is even worse, their remuneration comes from the share of the actor's salary, and the failure of the actor's work will not do them any good.

　　 Therefore, under this system, the so-called hidden rules and black box operations are indeed minimized.

　　 But on the other hand, if you encounter the unspoken rules you can get a lot of performance opportunities, how many people will refuse? Simply put, sleeping with the director or producer will give you a chance to perform. This is a shortcut for many actors to become famous quickly. It is really a bargain deal, and many people are willing to give it a try. .

　　 In other words, the unspoken rules are no longer dark and obscure, they are directly put on the table, and they have evolved into Zhou Yu's fight against Huang Gai, one willing to fight and one willing to suffer. Among the "yellow covers" of Hollywood, Hugo Lancaster before last night was one of them.
