Superstar

Chapter 82: Small test

   After re-investing in the script practice, Hugo's performance has obviously changed qualitatively, and the whole person has entered the state. However, it is just a simple exercise now, so Hugo's performance can only be said to be quite satisfactory, not as amazing, but at least it can make the script exercises go smoothly, which is already a great improvement.

   The atmosphere in the conference room finally returned to calm. Although no one took the initiative to talk to Hugo, at least no one was looking at Hugo with strange eyes. It’s just that everyone is still reluctant to communicate with Hugo too much. It’s like Hugo is a virus. Hugo deliberately wants to talk to Jack. After all, Hugo was introduced to the crew by Jack, but it’s a pity that Jack didn’t. There was no such plan. Jack left with Rob after the morning script practice was over.

Finally, at lunch time, Hugo was like an abandoned child. He sat alone in the corner and had a meal. Kevin came to sit for a while, but Hugo just chatted with Kevin for a while, just like himself. Need to read the script to catch up with the progress as a reason, so that Kevin returned to the main force.

Hugo knows that everyone is not blatantly ridiculing, just because they don’t want to affect the progress of the script practice, but they still disagree with Hugo. Before Hugo proves himself with strength, or Jack takes the initiative to change his treatment of rain. Before the fruit’s attitude, this situation is difficult to change in essence.

   Therefore, even if Kevin is with Hugo, there is no way to change anything, but it will make Kevin's position more awkward. Hugo took the initiative to give Kevin a step and let him return to the big army. However, what Hugo said to read the script is also true. After he quickly solved his lunch, he started reading the script again. He is now too far behind in progress. If he does not hurry, his situation in the crew will only be even worse. difficulty.

   There was a full ninety minutes of lunch break. Others gathered in twos and threes to smoke or drink coffee, while Hugo sat alone in the corner and continued reading the script.

Looking at Hugo, who was immersed in his study, Joseph walked over and handed Hugo a bottle of water. Hugo did not look up, but raised his free left hand, but he did not touch the mineral water bottle after touching it for a long time. Just catching the air. Joseph reluctantly grabbed Hugo’s left hand, and then stuffed the mineral water into Hugo’s palm. Hugo then grabbed the water bottle and put it on his knees, but he didn’t drink water for a long time, and his right hand kept writing on the script. Painting, and muttering a few words from time to time.

   Joseph could only sigh lightly, squatted down, helped Hugo unscrew the lid of the mineral water bottle, then grabbed Hugo's left wrist and lifted it up, saying, "Drinking some water will not delay you much time."

   Hugo then reacted, and immediately raised his head to take two big salivas, a smile appeared on his face immediately, and he was obviously thirsty. After drinking the water, Hugo looked down at the script again. Facing such a Hugo, Joseph had no choice but to re-screw the cap of the mineral water bottle, then stood up and stepped back, leaning against the wall with his hands. Standing pan-chested, accompanied by Hugo quietly.

   Jack and Rob saw this scene when they came back. Unexpectedly, Hugo didn't try to build a good relationship with other actors. Instead, he was reading the script alone, which Jack did not expect.

   Rob looked at Jack's face warm. With an ambiguous expression, he gave a low smile, "Jack, do you remember? He was recommended to me by you. I am very satisfied with him now, how about you?"

Jack's expression still hasn't changed much, he just curled his lips, "At least those two old guys didn't lie to me." Aside from other things, Hugo's attitude towards life is still very correct, which makes Jack's attitude towards Hugo. The impression score has changed slightly. "But the suitability depends on the next performance. If the performance is not good, the two old guys just wait." The two old guys mentioned here naturally refer to Bo and Al.

Seeing Jack’s harsh expression, Rob chuckled, did not speak any more, but walked towards the direction of the conference room, and when he stood at the door, he shouted in the direction of Hugo, "Hugo, The afternoon script exercise is about to begin, come in."

   It is a pity that Hugo, who was immersed in the world of scripts, did not hear it at all. Joseph raised his head and saw Jack who was about to enter the meeting room. He quickly patted Hugo on the shoulder, "It's started."

   Hugo then reacted, stood up quickly, and walked towards the conference room with the script. Before Hugo sat down, Rob said, "In the afternoon, let's start with the court inquiry of Daniel and Kendrick." The whole meeting room fell silent for an instant.

Hugo paused for a moment, but soon became consistent, took a deep breath, and sat on the chair again. He could clearly feel the gazes from Demi, Jack, Kevin and others, both inquiring and ironic. Take pleasure in misfortune.

  Daniel and Kendrick had a confrontation in France. Kendrick was a loyal subordinate of Colonel Jessup. The order of the red law came from Colonel Jessup, and Kendrick directly issued it. So conquering Kendrick has extraordinary significance. This scene is an important moment for Daniel to show his ability. In other words, this scene is very, very difficult.

Hugo didn’t look at Joseph’s worried sight, Jack’s inquiring sight, or Demi’s disdainful sight. He just opened the script of the scene and looked up at the one sitting diagonally across from him. Kiefer Sutherland, in this scene Hugo will be playing against Kiefer.

After getting Kiefer's prepared eyes, Hugo took a deep breath, closed his eyes and made some adjustments, and entered Daniel's state. "Captain Kendrick, these are the three most recent assessment reports of Corporal Dawson. With your signature. He was rated as excellent twice, but on the last report on June 9th, he got a middle-to-low comment. I want to discuss this last report." Hugo said very much. Smooth, steady, and calm.

   "No problem," Kiefer said.

"Corporate Dawson, after graduating from the infantry school, the rating is very good. When more than half of the people in the same class are promoted to corporal, Dawson is still a corporal." Hugo has been controlling his tone and stating the facts smoothly. Adding a little weight to adjectives such as "excellent" is like saying a trivial thing, "Is Dawson's promotion blocked because of the last report?"

   "I'm pretty sure it is." Kiefer continued to answer.

   "Why does this report give Dawson such a pitiful evaluation?" Hugo speeded up the rhythm of speech a little bit, following Kiefer's words.

   "I did forget." Inadvertently, Kiefer replied a little faster, "I have a lot of people under my hand, and I have a lot of reports to write."

   "Captain, can you remember that a first-class soldier named Curtis Bell stole alcohol from the officer's club?" Hugo changed the conversation and slowed down again. It can be clearly noticed that Kiefer's answer has also slowed down a bit, "Yes, I remember."

   "Have you reported to your superiors?" Hugo seemed to casually pick the end of the sentence, and asked in a very soft tone.

Kiefer’s voice became louder involuntarily, “I have two books by my bedside, the'Marine Code of Conduct' and the'Bible'. The only superiors I know are my commander, Colonel Nathan Jessup and God."

   Hugo did not answer immediately. Instead, he paused and quietly amplified the volume. "In your terms, Captain, I can understand that you don't recognize that the military court is also your superior."

   "Objection, it has nothing to do with this case." The government lawyer Jack played by Kevin opened his mouth and interrupted Hugo. And the actor who played the judge also returned, "The objection is valid, please pay attention, lawyer."

   "Have you reported Curtis Bell to your superiors?" Hugo's speed and tone of voice returned to normal.

   "Private soldier Bell is very good in my memory. I don't want to see his resume stained with it." Kiefer replied smoothly.

   Hugo approached the conference table, leaned forward slightly, and then deliberately slowed down his speech by half a beat, which made the weight of the words a little bit heavier, "You prefer to solve it inside the unit, don't you?"

   "Yes, it is true." Kiefer was really fooled.

Hugo couldn't help but smiled, "Captain, do you know what the red law is?" The answer is naturally yes, "Have you ever ordered the implementation of the red law?" The answer is naturally no, "Captain, have you ever ordered Dawson and the other two subordinates guard Curtis Bell, for a total of seven days, did not give him any food or drink except water?"

Hugo began to speed up the connection between question and answer, and slightly increased his speech speed, but it was not an exaggeration. This made Kiefer's answer also began to speed up, "This is a distortion of the facts, Lieutenant! Private Bell is imprisoned in In the barracks, UU reading www.uukanshu.com has water and vitamins for supplements, and I can assure you that his health has never been threatened."

"I believe this is very interesting for Private Bell." Hugo slowed down again inexplicably, and then suddenly increased. "But have you ordered the closure? Have you ordered no food? "Hugo's irregular speed change firmly grasped the entire rhythm in his own hands. Sure enough, Kiefer passively followed Hugo's speed. The impatience on Kiefer's face revealed his inner irritability. , But also a portrayal of the character Kendrick's heart.

   "Yes, I gave the order." Kiefer took a deep breath and said.

"Can this form of departure be considered a red law?" Hugo actually slowed down again, but the connection between questions and answers made Kiefer a little breathless, so he was silent, and finally only Suffocated a "no". Hugo seized this moment of silence and followed Kiefer’s answer and quickly said a series of words, “If I summon the other 478 Marines from Guantanamo to testify, they would think it was Red regulations?"

It can be felt that Hugo is silently controlling the speed, intonation, and volume of his speech. Through this unobvious way, he controls his own way of speaking and power arrangement. Before people react, he just Master the rhythm.

   On the surface, it seems that Hugo is just reading the lines, but this is not just "reading" the lines, it should be said that it is "playing" the lines. Although it seems ordinary, it makes both Jack and Rob bright.

   Within just one morning before and after, Hugo was able to realize that this talent, this effort, is not something ordinary people can have.
