Superstar

Chapter 47: Mercilessly

   Lang's refusal was too blunt and straightforward, and didn't save Hugo any face at all. Joseph regretted it a little. He shouldn't have brought Hugo with him. He subconsciously looked back at Hugo and expressed his concern.

Hugo felt a little innocent at this time, because as far as he was concerned, he and Lang had nothing to do with each other. Today was the first time they met. So even if Lang rejected him, Hugo didn’t think too much, just just discuss the matter, simply. I feel that Lang is really not showing any affection at all. So facing the sight cast by Joseph, Hugo's eyes were stunned, and then quietly drifted to the side: because he didn't know what reaction he had to make at this time was correct.

As a senior agent, it is naturally impossible for Lang to "humiliate" the other person in front of Hugo. This is really impolite, so he stopped speaking and immediately looked at Hugo, "Hugo, you know, This is not aimed at you, it's just'instinct. Ability' The positioning of this movie does not match your image. This is indeed inappropriate."

This is purely nonsense. It is not for Hugo to star in "Instinct. Ability", but just to participate in the premiere ceremony. It is like actors inviting their relatives and friends to a party, a party, and a movie. The subject matter and nature are irrelevant. Unless Hugo is still underage, Nalang's statement still has some truth.

   Hugo's sight only floated halfway, just not knowing how to respond to Joseph. Hearing Lang's words, he said, "Uh, what is my image?"

This sentence made Lang stunned, but after all, he was also a battle-tested person, and he quickly reacted, "Youth, vigor, health, and sunshine." Although it was a response in response, it was very impressive. To be precise, at any rate Lang has also served as Hugo's agent for six years. Hugo can be regarded as an actor brought out by Lang. He still knows this very well.

   "Then why can't I attend this premiere?" Hugo immediately followed up with another question, which was much more direct than Joseph, and Lang couldn't help but be speechless in an instant, and the whole person looked a little embarrassed.

   Actually, as far as Hugo is concerned, he doesn't know what Joseph's arrangements are, what occasions are suitable, and what activities are helpful to the actor's image. Hugo has never come into contact with these things, so naturally he doesn't understand. But Hugo was indeed a little interested in the premiere of the movie "Instinct. Ability".

   Although I don’t like Sharon Stone, the film "Instinct. Ability" turned out that year. It can be said that it broke countless teenagers’ illusions about the relationship between men and women. The exposure shots in the movie are really unforgettable. And it is rumored that many top actresses refused to play because of the excessive exposure of the film. However, the unknown Sharon undressed in front of the camera in order to get the role. In the end, Sharon got the role and became a Fight to become famous. This also makes this movie full of Hollywood-style bright rules.

Of course, in terms of artistry, this film does not have much to discuss, even if the film was a global sensation when it was released, but the heroine Sharon and the director Paul Verhoeven (Paul Verhoeven) are behind this film. , There is no masterpiece that can be obtained anymore, and the "instinct. ability" has become the only masterpiece in their respective careers.

   Hugo is also a little curious, what will the premiere of "Instinct. Ability" be like?

Faced with Hugo’s quick answer to the question, Lang couldn’t answer it for a while, which made him a little bit irritated. The young man who was once easily controlled by him seems to be out of control today. "You know, we I hope the premiere will be as grand as possible. Not all actors of all levels will be able to attend."

   This is actually ironic that Hugo is not enough. Lang has restrained himself very much. He is annoyed by the fact that Hugo has to ask for his help after leaving his wings. He does not have any salary to help Hugo now, it just adds to his burden. Not to mention that after the Golden Raspberry Award, Hugo was deeply in the quagmire. Helping Hugo was a loss of money. Lang was not so broad-minded.

   Thinking of this, Lang's tone couldn't help but become more blunt, "The negative impact of the Golden Raspberry Award has not yet dissipated. Columbia Pictures does not want to associate its film with the Golden Raspberry Award."

The offensiveness of these two sentences is very strong. It can be called a snake hitting seven inches. It directly hits Joseph's most worrying point: Before the release of "Scent of a Woman", Hugo carried the Golden Raspberry Award for the worst. The title of the leading actor is expected to be ridiculed for a long time.

"Stallone would be very disappointed to hear this." Hugo smiled back. In fact, there are countless big-name actors who have won the Golden Raspberry Award in history, including Laurence Olivier and Brooke Jr. Silk (Brooke. Shields), Daryl. Hannah (Daryl. Hannah) and so on, so this sentence of Lang can be described as overturning a boat. Of course Hugo knew that this was impossible, and if Sylvester Stallone were to attend the premiere of "Instinct. Ability", Lang would definitely want it.

But in the face of Hugo's counterattack, Lang was not worried at all. Instead, he pulled out a disdainful smile, "Wait until you reach the level of Sylvester." The subtext is: you still Not enough weight.

   Lang's words are really merciless, basically canceling the six years of friendship with Hugo Lancaster. In fact, for a senior agent like Lang, there are no one hundred and eighty clients under his hand. He can't take care of them one by one. Naturally, he maximizes the benefits. He is right who can bring him the most commissions. Who cares the most, the reason is very simple. Similar to Hugo, who is half-red and not-purple, dying and dying, Lang really disdains more communication.

Joseph, who stood by and watched Hugo and Lang you come and go, couldn’t help but lamented that Hugo’s attitude towards Lang had changed drastically. It was originally expected that Hugo’s tendency towards Lang did not appear, but he faced Lang’s rejection and rejection. Hugo didn't get angry either, and now Hugo is confronted with Lang head-on, which is really surprising.

But at this time Joseph couldn’t bother to continue to sigh. Lang’s words became more and more ugly, and he was about to tear his face. Joseph immediately stood up, "When Hugo reaches that level, he won’t be standing here. A word ironically satirized that Lang was not qualified to take up the jobs of these big-name actors, and Lang suddenly changed his face.

"If it weren't for Hugo's'excellent performance' at the Golden Raspberry Awards, there would be no today." Lang Yi looked like a bad-tempered person, said Urn Sheng, his tone of impatience had not concealed anything. , It seems that he does not welcome Hugo to come to him at all.

   This sentence immediately blocked Joseph's chest. If Long hadn't persuaded Hugo to attend, how could Hugo go to the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood, how could he be embarrassed, and how could he face all the difficulties afterwards. It's okay now, but Lang actually raked in a harrow, which is really depressing.

"After the release of'Scent of a Woman', you'd better not be jealous of Hugo's success!" Hugo saw Joseph get angry for the first time in these two months, even at the backstage of the Golden Raspberry Awards ceremony. Joseph was not angry when he was provoked during the audition for "Scent of a Woman", but today he vented his temper unabashedly.

   Hugo felt that Joseph was also a young and energetic young man. He was only twenty-eight years old this year, and the impulse and recklessness in his bones had not yet dissipated.

   "It's better to have such a day." Lang said with a sneer, with a look of disdain. Obviously he is not optimistic about Hugo's development prospects at all, otherwise he would not transfer Hugo to Joseph. Long wanted to maintain a good relationship with Hugo before, but now he couldn't help it anymore and showed his true emotions without any disguise. "In that case, you shouldn't be here today and shouldn't ask me for an invitation letter." Joseph who said this sentence was directly blocked on the spot.

"Then, if you have nothing else to do, please leave." Lang regained the high posture they had when they first came in, and hurried people directly, "I am very busy, and now there are three calls waiting for me to reply." Lang directly He picked up the phone on the desktop, pressed a button, and shouted directly into the hands-free, "Gary! Please leave Joseph and Hugo, I still have a meeting." This direct eviction order is entirely Chi Guoguo. Despise.

   In the face of the sudden outbreak of Lang and Joseph, Hugo himself did not feel deeply, after all, he passed halfway through. UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not experience so many things, and naturally felt that he was not so unforgettable. But at this moment, looking at Ron's disgusting expression, Hugo was also repelled: Since people are eager to separate the relationship, why should they come to the door?

Hugo pulled Joseph's arm and said calmly, "Joseph, let's go. Al Pacino and Jack Nicholson are still waiting for Lang to reply. Don't disturb others' work." Joseph didn't hold back a word, and he laughed after a flutter.

   Although this is just a fluttering sentence, it directly hit Lang's sore spot. Lang can now be regarded as a top agent, but he has no real top superstars under his hands. The current best Michael Douglas is not brought out by him. To put it more directly, it is his hard power. Not recognized by the industry. Real ace brokers are bound to have personally pushed a newcomer to the top, and what Lang lacks is precisely this stepping stone.

   Joseph's laughter added fuel to the fire, causing Lang's anger to erupt directly, but he couldn't refute it, otherwise it would just make himself more depreciated. So he could only watch Hugo and Joseph leave their office calmly. Before leaving, Hugo smiled at Gary and said, "Gary, Lang is now picking up Steven Spielber. Grid (Steven. Spielberg) phone, please don't disturb him."

   After Gary watched Hugo leave, he looked suspiciously at Lang who was full of anger. Lang was not answering the phone at all. He couldn't help but asked curiously, "Spielberg?"

   "Go!" Lang no longer suppressed his anger, and roared at his assistant.
