　　Universal Studios (Universal Studios) is located in the northwest suburbs of downtown Los Angeles. It was originally because the surrounding natural environment is very suitable for filming movies, so filmmakers gathered here, thus forming a world-famous studio. Now that the entire Hollywood has matured, it has become a tourist attraction known for its movie-like theme parks. Every year, it attracts countless tourists to participate in the "Universal Studio Tour". However, there are still many studios here, and film companies such as Columbia Pictures and Paramount will continue to shoot movies here.

Driving to Universal Studios from Joseph’s house, it’s only six miles away, even if the road conditions are bad, it can be reached in half an hour, but Joseph and Hugo still set off at 8:30 in the morning, just because they don’t want to miss it. The audition at half past nine. Although today's audition for "Scent of a Woman" is a public interview, even if you are late, you can just line up from the back, but they still advance by an hour.

　　 Along the way, Joseph and Hugo did not communicate too much. There was silence in the carriage, and the tension between the two could be clearly felt. In fact, Hugo was not too nervous at first, but Joseph’s expressionless face also made him nervous all morning. His understanding of Joseph is still very limited. I don’t know what Joseph’s performance means. Passively silent.

"You said why today's interview should be in Universal Studios, there should be many other suitable venues." Hugo tried to break the dull atmosphere, watching Universal Studios approaching outside the window, the world-famous one on the top of the mountain The "HOLLYWOOD" sign has come into sight. Although Hugo has seen this sign many times in the past few days, it seems that it is not surprising to watch too much, but at this time the distance from the sign is getting closer, and the impact of the frontal breakthrough is still very strong.

Joseph didn't reply immediately, which made the tension in the carriage more embarrassing. After about ten seconds, Joseph said, "Because it fits here." Hugo only felt that he could clearly feel it. The three black lines on his forehead began to slip slowly, and Joseph's answer was equivalent to not saying it.

The car moved some distance, and soon saw the gate of Universal Studios, and the famous globe logo, surrounded by countless tourists, everyone stopped and wanted to take photos with this logo, but everyone was nostalgic. Gathering together and pressing the shutter, it is not clear who is the protagonist of the photo.

　　 Seeing the magnificent sea of ​​people in front of him, Hugo couldn't help being stunned. He has not been to the Avenue of Stars, Disneyland, Chinatown and other tourist attractions in the past few days. It is estimated that the tourist scene everywhere will definitely not be inferior to Universal Studios. Moreover, this is still January in the off-season for tourism. If it is midsummer in July, the scene is expected to be even more spectacular.

"Because today is a public interview." Joseph suddenly uttered a word out of nowhere, and turned Hugo's attention away from the crowd of tourists outside the window, and then saw Joseph's still expressionless cheeks slightly. Frowned, "I guess there will be many people."

　　 Hugo realized that Joseph was answering his question just now, and it was also the source of his worries today.

　　 When the two people came to the audition meeting place, they were shocked by the dense crowd in front of them. This is the real "crowd of people". There is a spacious studio in front of me. The surrounding scaffolding, boom camera, and pulley track are still usable, but now these props have been pushed to the side and the open space in the middle is cleared. At this time, all participants Those who interviewed publicly stood in the studio.

　　 Looking around, there are at least three hundred actors, which makes the whole studio bustling, crowded, and lively. When Hugo participated in the interview of the Dragon Set before, he saw more spectacular scenes. In one breath, thousands of Dragon Sets swarmed on the set, but today this is the protagonist audition, and only for the role of Charlie, so many actors have gathered. This is the largest audition Hugo has seen so far.

I used to read news reports saying what role was chosen from 800 and what role stood out from a thousand people. Hugo still has no real feelings. I think it is just a statistic, but there are more than 300 people in front of you. , But in the most direct way to tell Hugo: To get the role of Charlie, you must defeat everyone on the scene!

Among the more than 300 candidates, there are almost all kinds of actors in appearance, strength and strength, hard work and hard work. It is not that simple to stand out from such a fierce competition. One thing. Moreover, the time is less than nine o'clock, and there are still more than 30 minutes before the start of the audition. Who knows if the number of competitors will continue to increase.

This kind of suffocation made Hugo speechless. He finally understood the reason why Joseph was expressionless all morning. It seems that Joseph has long known that the scale of public interviews today will be far beyond. Imagine. Joseph is not only worried about Hugo's interview prospects, but he is also annoyed by his lack of preparation for intelligence work.

When Joseph obtained the audition opportunity for Hugo to "Scent a Woman", not only Hugo, but Joseph himself was also very happy, because now he is an agent that Hugo can really rely on, and he also needs Hugo to be able to. Get a job, Hugo is his only artist, they can only count on each other. But it turned out that this is not only a public interview, but also a scale of 300 people. In other words, Hollywood young male actors from 20 to 25 years old are estimated to have a few avenues to participate in the interview. This is also It means that Joseph's work as a broker is not worth money at all.

　　Imagine that a year ago, Hugo was still the hero of "Hudson's Eagle"; a year later, he had to participate in the public interview of "Scent of a Woman". Such a huge gap is really unacceptable. Although Joseph did not see any complaints on Hugo's face, he was still very dissatisfied with his work.

　　 This is really frustrating Joseph!

"Joseph." Hugo's voice caused the expressionless Joseph to turn his head and look at him. Although Joseph had this rigid face all morning, Hugo has completely adapted to such a Joseph at this time, because he knows that Joseph is sure. I was also worried that the next audition would be like this, so Hugo showed a big smile, "It seems that today’s audition will have a long queue, do you have anything to do, let us shorten the waiting time? Wait too long, My performance is going to decline."

Joseph naturally knew that Hugo was joking. Hugo has devoted himself to preparing for today’s audition. Even if he is not fully prepared, he will never lose his status because of the long waiting time. of. Hugo would say this, in fact, he is comforting Joseph: he will be at ease when he comes. Instead of fearing because of fierce competition, it is better to face the challenge head-on.

Seeing Hugo’s familiar but unfamiliar smile, Joseph’s nervousness could not help but relax a little, "You are waiting here." After finishing speaking, he stepped forward and shuttled among the crowd. Joseph is now What is fulfilled is the duty of a broker.

In fact, Joseph’s worries did not exist for Hugo at all. Although he is now Hugo Lancaster in name, for Chen Hugo’s soul in his body, it was the audition of "Dahe Love" first, and then the "smell of love". "Fragrance of Women" interviews, these are super big pie he can meet but cannot ask for before crossing. Even public interviews are equally rare. The opportunity is already in sight. What Hugo has to do now is to make Do your best to seize this opportunity.

Therefore, Hugo's mentality is very good. Whether it is a competition of 30 people or a competition of 300 people, to impress the director, he must come up with real guns. If there is not enough strength, even if there are only three people competing, the winner will be selected in the end. It won't be you. It's that simple.

The truth is like this, but Hugo looked at the crowd spreading in front of him, the densely packed heads were surging in his sight, and noisy whispers surrounded from all sides. This real sense of tension still made Hugo involuntarily tense. Now, it’s not that simple for UU reading www.uukanshu.com to break through fierce competition.

　　 Hugo took a deep breath, but the hot air in the studio made him feel very uncomfortable. Not only did the nervousness not relieved, but there were signs of aggravation. Anyway, his current position is only a few steps away from the entrance of the studio. Joseph will not fail to see him when he comes back. Hugo decided to go to the entrance to breathe some fresh air.

　　 Hugo turned around and only took two steps, and he saw two familiar faces approaching each other, a man with blond straight hair and a man with black curly hair. The two men’s original cheeks were almost deformed, but when they saw Hugo, the expression of the blond straight-haired man suddenly changed. He raised his chin pretentiously and pointed his nostril at Hugo. "Isn't this Hugo Lancaster, who was just eliminated in'Dahe Love'?"

Hugo's originally bored mood stretched out because of this expression and this sentence. The corner of his mouth was drawn with a faint arc, "If I remember correctly, this is the actor of'Dahe Love', or Say, the hero is you?" Hugo said as he looked at the black curly-haired man standing next to him. The black curly-haired man reacted slowly for a while. Before he could speak, he was hit by Hugo's shot and his cheeks flushed directly.

　　Everyone knows that Paul, the actor of "Dahe Love", has confirmed that Brad Pitt will play the role. Hugo is just sprinkling salt on the wounds of two people. But Hugo seemed to be totally ignorant, showing an expression of sorry. Seeing this expression in the eyes of the blond straight-haired man and the black curly-haired man, it immediately made the two of them more comfortable, thinking that Hugo wanted The clothes were soft, but Hugo's next words almost made the two of them explode.

　　 "Sorry, your name is..."
