Chapter 561: Come prepared

ads_wz_txt;

Resurgence 561 came back prepared. Although he drank a large glass of cold water to relieve it, Hugo still felt a bit numb in his mouth, which made him slightly open his mouth, frowning and returning to his position with depression. , Looking at the two people in front of him who were almost so scared that their eyes fell out, Hugo pointed to his mouth embarrassedly, "It's too urgent to drink coffee."

If you are friends who are familiar with Hugo, you will naturally know that this is Hugo’s usual confusion, which is not uncommon; but for Quentin and Roland, they are dumbfounded: such Hugo and the charm on the screen. The eloquent image of shooting and the media is really far behind.

Hugo didn't think it was strange at all, and he remembered the topic they had just chatted in his mind. Quentin's reaction confirmed Roland's statement, which gave Hugo a sigh of relief. If Roland was making a deal with the Weinstein brothers, there would be nothing surprising. Fortunately, Quentin is still the ruffian he is familiar with, and because of Quentin's personality, he is indeed a person who does not know how to do such things.

Hugo habitually picked up the coffee cup and looked at it through the curls, but when he was about to take a sip of coffee, he remembered that the coffee was too hot, so he pulled it away and sniffed the coffee seriously. Aroma. Although he hasn't been interested enough to distinguish coffee beans by aroma, he must admit that the daily signature coffee here is really memorable.

Then Hugo smiled and said hello formally, "Good afternoon, Mr. Parkin, I wonder if you found me with such twists and turns, what's the matter?"

Quentin still sat next to him for a moment. He didn't know whether he heard Hugo's apology just now. He sat there and struggled, but thinking that Hugo drank his coffee to burn himself, he felt very funny. The expression is wonderful.

Roland had seen many strong winds and waves, and quickly reacted, "Please call me Roland." Then he smiled to express his friendship, "I have a few very good scripts in my hand, and you are the most suitable candidate, so I thought See if you are interested."

"If you have work-related matters, please contact my agent Joseph Gibbs." Hugo shook his head and said with a smile, and then pointed to Quentin who was sitting next to him, "And, I just Accepted a new job, I don’t think I can spare time to pick up the new script in a short time."

Roland did not respond directly to Hugo’s refusal. Obviously, an agent whose business has reached Roland’s level can always hide his true emotions, or release the necessary emotions to achieve his goals, interpersonal communication. For them, it is a kind of negotiation and transaction.

Roland still smiled politely, "Of course, if you need to take over these jobs, it must be negotiated by your agent. But I don't think your agent can help you get in touch with these works. This is what I came to you. main reason."

Although Roland's speech has always been gentle and polite, and the language is also very gentle, but the content of the words is not like this. Just now, no matter how Hugo answers, it will be very difficult. He said, "My agent has access to a lot of works..." This is an introduction to Roland to show his bargaining chips and prove that his words are wrong; he Saying "I only pick up works that my agent can access..." Such a self-defeating and unmotivated statement, it is estimated that Roland will not believe it; he said, "I want to speak with my strength..." Roland will obviously be prepared too." Words like "opportunism" convince Hugo...

Of course, Hugo may be able to find a suitable answer-give him enough time, but the problem is that Roland will not. Roland just looked at Hugo with a smile. After about two seconds, without waiting for Hugo's answer, he raised his voice and said clearly, "You know, in Hollywood, there are countless opportunities almost every day. Even the most capable agents have their limitations. Only when they are united can they have more resources and get more opportunities. This is also the biggest advantage of our innovative artist company."

Roland is very smart. He didn't show up his chips directly, and he didn't have the ability to attack Joseph. He just stated his own advantages. This kind of gentle approach as an entry point will obviously make the whole conversation atmosphere more harmonious. Moreover, Roland's remarks really cannot be refuted.

"I know that you just signed a contract with Quentin. This is a very good work. I am looking forward to your performance." Roland held Quentin secretly again to ease the atmosphere, and then continued, "Me too. I have heard that there are many scripts that I hope to find you to cooperate with, but the opportunities are always not too much, are they?" Roland's eyes flashed slightly, and then he said casually but with a high concentration of energy." I now have a script that James Cameron is preparing. This is an action movie. He hopes to continue the new concept he gave to action movies in the "Terminator" series."

…Terminator? Wouldn’t it be more suitable for Arnold Schwarzenegger?” Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly and said politely. He knew that Roland had come to find himself today, he must be perfectly prepared, if he If you don’t listen to it, during the later filming of "Pulp Fiction", Roland can also try to appear through the Wienstar brothers. At that time, it will not only consume an afternoon, but also have the potential to interrupt the rhythm of the filming. Then, I just listened to it perfectly.

"I don't know that you also have a fixed mind." Roland's rhetorical question made Hugo laugh. In fact, Hugo's appearance in "Sleepless in Seattle" and "Schindler's List" can be said to break the audience's thinking. Yes, that's why Roland said this. Moreover, Hugo has appeared in "Hudson's Eagle" before, so he should not be unfamiliar with action movies.

Roland is indeed a master of conversation. Even if Hugo is wary, he still has to admit that Roland's conversation is very pleasant. "This script is called "True Lies" is a very interesting story. I personally like it very much. "

"Yes, I know this work you are talking about, but I heard that it has already started shooting." Quentin sat next to him, and suddenly a word came out. Hugo could clearly see that there was such a momentary question on Roland’s face. Roland obviously hadn't predicted that Quentin would demolish his stage, which made Hugo laugh.

But after all Roland has experienced a lot of battles, I saw him directly magnify the expression of astonishment, and then said in surprise, "Is that really the case?" Then he turned his head and looked at Hugo, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. It must be because I missed the call from James, and then I missed the news." Then he saw Roland smiled self-deprecatingly, "Oops, it's embarrassing, this is definitely not my most successful moment."

Hugo knew it immediately. Roland was definitely not negligent. He clearly came here today, so the point of mentioning "True Lies" is not on the script itself, but on reminding Hugo that they own James Came. Long such resources. More importantly, as long as Hugo inquires afterwards, he will know that "True Lies" is a big production with an investment of 120 million U.S. dollars, which can also show the strong strength of an innovative artist agency.

As for the embarrassment at this moment, it was an unexpected situation, and Roland also took advantage of the trend and showed his negligent side, which helped to ease the atmosphere and bring the distance closer. Anyway, "true lie" is not the highlight.

If everything is like Hugo's guess, he must admire Roland's careful planning.

Immediately afterwards, Roland continued to say with a smile, "I hope that Woody Allen's script will not be like this." Quentin sat next to him and laughed, Hugo's face was also full of smiles, the whole atmosphere; -*i got up, "Woody wrote a script this time about the story of our industry, mocking the so-called intellectuals and artists. This is called'bullets over Broadway (bullets.over.), The script of this is really suitable for you."

When he heard the name of the script, Hugo couldn’t help but brighten his eyes. This movie can be regarded as one of the most outstanding works of Woody’s director’s career. As far as Hugo is concerned, it is more famous than the famous "Anne Hall (" .Hall), he likes this work even more.

"The bullet over Broadway..." is about New York in the 1820s. A playwright in Greenwich Village was given the opportunity to direct a Broadway play with the help of a well-known filmmaker. But The prerequisite is that he must use the gang member's girlfriend as the supporting actress in the play, and then the playwright already has a favorite candidate, and the performance of that gang member's child friend is really unsightly. Faced with the pressure of human relations and independent choices, he is in a dilemma, and thus develops a series of unexpected stories.

This film combines Broadway and gangster backgrounds. The classic and absurd lines build up a variety of different creatures, and Woody does not shy away from ±11,4 pointing to the inside story of Broadway's vulnerable, revealing "art for art." Emptiness

Hugo once saw this work and left an extremely deep impression. At the same time, he sighed for the director's boldness and boldness. Although Hugo knew that Woody had refused to appear on the Oscar stage all his life~www.wuxiaspot.com~ only because he thought the award ceremony was inconsistent with his own artistic taste, only-the second time he appeared at the Oscar, just for His beloved New York. Later, in order to commemorate New York, Oscar set up a link to introduce New York-related films, so he appeared; but even so, Woody's arrogance and extremeness as an intellectual and artist are still the most in his works. Shown vividly, "The bullet over Broadway..." is one of the best.

Although Hugo was not cold about the "love story" between Woody and his adopted daughter, he would not deny the talent of this nagging little old man.

It has to be said that Roland is really prepared. He first mentioned the commercial work "True Lies" as a foreshadowing, and then came up with "Bullets over Broadway..." a script with connotation and performance challenges. Probing, obviously, Roland is showing the advantages of an innovative artist agency: huge resources and enlightened ideas.

Hugo was sure that Roland must know part of the inside story of the dispute between him and Joseph, so he prescribed the right medicine today. Innovative artist brokerage companies really cannot be underestimated. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to read it and vote for a monthly ticket for the work.
