ads_wz_txt;

After Dongshan's 559 hot and hot mobile phone hung up, Hugo held the brick and jumped up excitedly. He kept muttering, "Michael Jackson, Michael Jackson..." This rhythmic and melodic cadence, it sounded like Rap is normal, even if Hugo didn't dance directly in the hall, people directly felt his joyful mood.

Charlize looked at the funny pink slippers on Hugo's feet and laughed, "You should really see what you are now." The little bit of wild thinking just disappeared, turning into a cloud of smoke. In the depths of my heart, disappeared.

"Joker?" Hugo was very self-aware, and he said with a smile, causing Charlize to nod repeatedly. But Hugo didn't mind at all, he was still jumping on his own way, making Charlize laugh nonstop.

At this time, the horn of the car came from outside the window. Hugo smiled and pointed out the window, "Mr. Perfect is here."

Only then did Charlize react. Just now, she was sitting here with Hugo and fooling around. Time flies quickly, and she can't even bother looking for shoes. She tiptoes and rushes directly into the room, quickly changing into a sweater and Jeans, holding the jacket, rushed all the way downstairs.

Seeing Charlize's quick action, Hugo couldn't help but be surprised. Other women seemed to take a long time to prepare to go out, but Charlize was always very fast, not a woman at all, but this is indeed something worthy of recognition. advantage. But thinking about it carefully, Charlize always spends too much time in hygiene questions, which proves that she is still a woman after all.

Hugo walked to the window and saw Charlize sitting in the car with a smile on his face. Mr. Perfect handed her a cup of coffee, and then backed out of the library, ready to leave. Charlize saw Hugo through the car window and waved his hand with a smile. Hugo picked up the stiffness at the corner of his mouth and showed a smile as he watched the car leave.

Hugo stood by the window for a while, until the car completely disappeared on the trail, and then paused for a while, then he came back to his senses, and he realized that he got up so early today, not just because it was too noisy outside. , But because he had an appointment with Quentin Tarantino this morning.

Looking at the clock, Hugo hurriedly packed up. It took less than ten minutes before and after washing, and Hugo quickly left the house. Sure enough, there were still two paparazzi at the door, and Hugo didn't have time to pay attention to them, and ran straight towards Sunset Plaza.

Samora actually lives on the street next door, and it takes less than five minutes to walk, but Hugo did not wake Samora, but as a jogging exercise, all the way to the Sunset Boulevard, ten minutes later, he I saw Quentin sitting by the window of the "Intellectual Coffee House".

The waiter in the coffee shop saw Hugo walk in and immediately showed a familiar smile, "Hugo, good morning." Hugo also smiled and waved hello. The waiter asked, "Is it still the usual practice?"

Hugo glanced at the small blackboard next to today's mouth, the menu, nodded, and then pointed to Quentin's position, "I'm sitting there." He walked over directly, looking at Quentin with a smile on his face," Sorry, I'm late."

Quentin's iconic horse face showed a big smile, "No, I was early, and there are still seven minutes before our appointment." Quentin pointed to the other person sitting next to him, for two people. A brief introduction was made, "Roland Parkin (.), Hugo Lancaster; Hugo Lancaster, Roland Parkin."

Hugo also shook hands with Roland. Roland seemed to be almost fifty years old, his eyes gleaming with kindness, Hugo didn't know his identity, and just greeted him and sat down. Quentin took control of the pace of the conversation, "So how did you find that asking a coffee house like this is really special."

"I found it by accident during an interview." Since the last time I met Nicholas McLenna in the "Intellectual Coffee House", Hugo has often come over, coming here from time to time to find some fresh coffee beans, but I am familiar with the shop assistants. stand up. "Most of the people who come here are self-employed, everyone is very quiet, and there are few people in the industry, it's a very suitable place for conversation."

"The coffee here is indeed ltbong. Although I don't know much about coffee, the aroma is charming enough." Quentin said with a smile, "I came here today to hand over the contract to you, your agent. This time the action was very fast. After the legal department reviewed it, I called me yesterday and told me to send it directly for you to sign."

Hugo nodded with a smile, "Is the start date set?"

Although Joseph did not contact Hugo this time, it was Anna still calling, but it was indeed the case. Joseph’s actions suddenly speeded up, and the "Pulp Fiction" contract was quickly checked, and then waited for Miramax to first. After the seal was completed, Joseph asked Quentin to come directly to Hugo to sign.

Yesterday, when Anna called Hugo to talk about the situation, Hugo was full of question marks. Although Joseph's behavior was not unusual, it was just speeding up, but Hugo always felt that something had changed. Unfortunately, he said no. Come out of one reason.

Hugo had left behind the two scripts "Speed ​​of Life and Death" and "Pulp Fiction". He originally thought that Joseph would insist on filming "Speed ​​of Life and Death" first. At least 28 million U.S. dollars and 8 million were invested in this movie. The dollar remuneration and the allowable box office dividends are obviously more in line with Joseph's value orientation, but I did not expect that now the "Pulp Fiction" has been determined first, and the "speed of life and death" will naturally be temporarily shelved.

Hugo had heard before that the competition for the protagonist of "Life and Death Hour" is very fierce, so Hugo temporarily shelved it here, which is probably equivalent to passing the script. This means that Joseph gave up the "speed of life and death" and chose "Pulp Fiction" in obedience to Hugo's meaning.

Is this a silent protest? But it's not like... Hugo always feels a little abnormal, but it just doesn't have a clear idea.

Hugo flipped over the contract. The remuneration was US$250,000 and the box office dividend was 20%. The bottom line of the box office was lowered to 3 million. It can be seen that Joseph was still with the Weinstein brothers. A tug of war for Hugo maximized the benefits-or as much as possible to reduce the loss of Hugo.

After the confirmation, Hugo did not hesitate anymore and directly signed his name at the end of the contract. In this way, "Pulp Fiction" has also been confirmed as Hugo's next work. In fact, Hugo took the film very quickly. It was only a little more than half a year since "Schindler's List" was finalized, and he immediately entered the next crew, which also proved Hugo's popular market today.

"I talked to your assistant Samora on the phone yesterday. He said that you will be attending the Junjie Music Festival in the next week and there will be no schedule after the end. Then, how do you think we will start the machine on the 20th?" Quentin said When it comes to discretion, it is obviously asking for Hugo's opinion.

Hugo could clearly feel that Quentin, the ruffian, really took great pains to make himself appear in "Pulp Fiction". He smiled and said, "I thought you would start the phone after Christmas."

Quentin shrugged, "You know, after Christmas is the New Year, and after the New Year is the awards ceremony, it is always difficult to find an appropriate time, so it is better to be earlier. Of course, the crew on Christmas Day There will be a holiday, after all, this is a family day once a year."

"I think Thanksgiving is a day for the family, and Christmas is a day for the store." Hugo's teasing made Quentin laugh, and Roland, who had been sitting next to him without a word, also laughed, "Then Just the twentieth, the crew has been postponed for so long because of me, I can't keep going back."

"No, no, in fact, even if you sign the contract in advance, our crew will not be able to leave and start shooting." Quentin said with a smile, "because we also encountered a little difficulty in choosing actors for other roles. You know, A small-cost independent movie.” This truthful sentence made Hugo laugh.

After the launch date of "Pulp Fiction" was determined, Quentin suddenly relaxed, and there were even some gearing up and eager to try, but at this time, Quentin noticed Roland sitting next to him, and quickly turned his head and smiled. I picked up the coffee, "I don’t know much about coffee, I only know some furs, but Roland knows a lot. He just said that the coffee beans here are very good, and it is a rare high-quality coffee bean sales place in Los Angeles. ……much better."

Quentin looked at Roland. Roland smiled and said, "Starbucks."

"Yes~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is much better than Starbucks." Quentin nodded repeatedly.

To be honest, Quentin's technique of changing the topic is really rough. He is obviously transferring the topic to Roland, hoping that Hugo can get along with Roland. This surprised Hugo because Roland never spoke. He thought that Roland was Quentin’s agent, or the spokesperson of the Weinstein brothers, or the representative of Miramax, for "Pulp Fiction" "It came from the signing, but it doesn't seem to be right now.

Hugo glanced at Quentin, the ruffian looked away anxiously, and took up a coffee cup to hide his embarrassment. Although Hugo and Quentin are friends, they are not very familiar after all, so Hugo also used eye contact to find Without an answer, he simply looked at Roland bluntly, "So, Mr. Parkin has a lot of research on coffee?"

"Please call me Roland." Roland said with a smile. He seemed to understand Hugo's doubts, and calmly took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Hugo.

Hugo took a look, and the company name on the business card was very conspicuous: Innovative Artist Agency. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to read it and vote for a monthly ticket for the work. Your support is the biggest motivation for me to continue to create!)
