Chapter 1144： Trust intuition
Rick looked at Hugo in front of him, the astonishment in his expression could not be concealed, he lowered his head and pursed his mouth, trying to control his expression, but he failed. This is the first time that Hugo and Rick have seen such obvious mood swings since Hugo and Rick worked together.
Compared to Rick, although Joseph and Samora were a bit surprised, they were obviously better off. Joseph couldn't understand Rick's thoughts anymore at this time. He was almost in this mood when he heard that Hugo chose the scripts "Speed of Life and Death" and "Pulp Fiction". Even now knowing that these two works have achieved great success, Joseph is still surprised by Hugo's determination and keenness.
However, now Joseph is on Hugo's side, and he doesn't need to worry about Hugo's choice. Seeing Rick who repeatedly tried to control his emotions but failed, Joseph sighed lightly. Although he understands Rick's mentality, there is no doubt that this time, he unconditionally supports Hugo.
Rick is not Joseph. He has been in the agent circle for many years. He has worked with no one hundred or eighty artists. He has also experienced many storms and waves. He has also encountered more thrilling and exciting things. He even Departed from his foundation, and re-established the Endeavour Elite Brokerage Company. But Rick was still surprised by Hugo.
Rick closed his eyes and took a deep breath, calming down a little bit, and then looked at Hugo sincerely, "Are you serious?" Rick knew that if he wanted to convince Hugo, he had to calm down, because Hugo has always been soft but not hard. He needs to communicate with Hugo seriously to make things go smoothly. So Rick forced himself to calm down.
Hugo also narrowed his smile, met Rick's surprised gaze, and replied concisely, "Yes."
After being silent for a while, Joseph took a look at Hugo, then thought about it, and explained, "Rick, Hugo has always been serious about scripts and never made any jokes. If you have any thoughts, you can say it. ."
Compared to Joseph, Rick is a pure agent. Although there is a friendship between Hugo and Rick-this is a good thing for cooperation, but it is more of a cooperative relationship, which requires Joseph to be between the two. Build a buffer bridge between him—he can understand Rick’s position and Hugo’s needs. Therefore, Joseph took the initiative to speak.
Rick took a deep breath again. He did not conceal his breathing movement. Only from this detail can feel his surprise. "Hugo, I personally have no opinion on filming the script of the'Seven Deadly Sins', because it is An excellent script, and I will not deny that Xinxian is willing to pay 10 million US dollars in remuneration, which is also an important factor. But you must know that, first of all, this is a remote subject, even...even better than Quentin To be remote, at least Quentin’s films are popular enough that the audience is willing to buy it, but this subject matter is not necessarily..."
Rick tried to speak calmly to himself, his sight never left Hugo's eyes, and he communicated with Hugo as much as possible with his sincerity and solemnity. this point is very important. Therefore, Hugo did not interrupt Rick, but listened carefully.
"Secondly, the new line is willing to pay 10 million yuan. This is definitely limited to the leading actor. Except for Mills, no other role can get this price. If... I mean, if you force a supporting role, The supporting roles are even more paid than the protagonist, which is a discordant factor for the crew."
This is what Rick is most worried about. Recently, the issue of Hugo's pay has already been heated up. If Hugo played a supporting role in the "Seven Deadly Sins", it will undoubtedly make the issue of pay continue to heat up, and then think about the 20 million film rewards caused by "Mission Impossible". Rick felt that his temples were already tingling.
As a senior agent, Rick sees that the overall view of the problem is not available to Hugo and Joseph. He can often see what is hidden behind the incident from a small matter. So he was so shocked when he heard that Hugo wanted to play Anonymous, not just because of a role problem.
Rick paused, watching Hugo still staring at him without interrupting himself, which made him feel a little more relieved, sorted out his thoughts, and continued, "What's more, Hugo,'Pulp Fiction', ' Before and after the sunrise, there are more and more eyes on you now, they are all looking forward to..." Rick seemed to want to say something, but he braked suddenly, and then changed the subject abruptly, "I mean , Is there so much room for the role of the Anonymous in the Seven Deadly Sins? Are you sure that this role can really shine?"
What Rick didn't say was his worry and his keenness.
Three years in succession have created miracles. On the surface, it seems that Hugo's current career is in full swing, but just like the flames and the flowers, everything is too late, flourishing and declining. The higher Hugo climbs now, the more attention he has to focus on. A little shake and failure will usher in more critical eyes. The worry that the "New York Post" expressed not long ago about "before sunrise" resonated so much, it is actually one of the signs.
To put it bluntly, many people are watching the excitement now, looking forward to the day when Hugo will fall, and the so-called "myth" will be shattered like this. Although there will be many loyal movie fans and fans sad and sorrowful, more people find it excited, embarrassing, interesting, and lively. This is the general mentality of mankind, which cannot be reversed.
Therefore, Hugo's current career is very popular, but in fact it seems to be walking a tightrope, and if you are not careful, big things will happen.
"They are all looking forward to your failure", this is what Rick didn't say. At this juncture, choosing the "seven deadly sins" is already an adventure, and choosing an anonymous person, how could Rick not worry?
In fact, Rick knows that the best way to deal with such a situation is to continue to succeed, then all the problems will be solved, but here is the difficult part: Is there really a winning general? So Rick hopes that Hugo will take photos like "Man in Black", "Mission Impossible", and "Brave to Death Island".
These works seem to be quite satisfactory and do not have many breakthroughs, but they are guaranteed to be successful, and they are all commercial popcorn movies. As long as the box office succeeds, the decline in word-of-mouth is acceptable-even a good thing, which can become Hugo's current career. The prosperous cooling agent has gradually made people accustomed to the fact that Hugo does not have a good box office and reputation every time, but he can still achieve success.
"Men in Black" has Steven Spielberg as a producer, "Mission Impossible" has a strong director and screenwriter to escort, "Break into the Dead Island" has Sean Connery's transfer target, all of which are An important factor in relieving stress.
Rick's perspective is professional and long-term. As an actor, Hugo, even if he is a traverser, cannot appreciate this overall view. However, Joseph can vaguely feel it. In fact, Joseph felt it after "Schindler's List", but after all, he lacked experience and had an intuition but couldn't clearly say why, so he handled it very badly. . Now, listening to Rick's words, Joseph looked at Hugo thoughtfully.
Although Hugo cannot understand Rick's concerns, his advantage is beyond Rick's reach: He knows that the "seven deadly sins" can succeed, and he is 100% sure! The "Seven Deadly Sins" achieved great success both in word-of-mouth and box office. This led to the rise of David Fincher and New Line Film Company, and Brad Pitt and Kevin Spacey took advantage of this. Dongfeng took the position smoothly.
Therefore, after Hugo waited for Rick to finish speaking, he nodded slightly, looked at Rick, and said solemnly, "Rick, I am not a woman, but I also have intuition. I believe in the'seven deadly sins'. Able to succeed, and the role of Anonymous is fatal to me. I believe that I can make a breakthrough in this role. I also need a role like this to let me find the impulse to perform, just like...just like Anthony- The same as Hannibal played by Hopkins."
Hugo’s reason is not very convincing, because there is no way to say what he firmly believes in his heart. Rick explains the facts, but Hugo can refute the reasons but can’t say it, so he can only pass it with his own eyes. Perseverance from deep in my heart.
"Rick, do you believe my instincts?" Hugo said earnestly, without any intention of joking in those amber eyes, it couldn't be more sincere.
There was a moment of silence in the hall. Both Joseph and Samora were a little restless. They naturally believed in Hugo, but they didn't know what they said, so they all looked at Rick. At this moment, a voice came from behind, "I believe it."
Everyone turned their heads and looked at Charlize opened the door and was taking off his coat at the door. Behind her, Carl was holding the scarf around his neck. It turned out to be two people who came back behind but were nearly a quarter of an hour late.
Charlize said casually, then chuckled lightly and said jokingly, "Hugo is always right, isn't it? I'm always willing to believe in Hugo." Then Charlize walked in with a look on his face. Smiled, "Sorry, what are you talking about?"
Although Charlize didn't understand the situation at all, Rick paused and then let out a long sigh of relief, "No, nothing. You're right, Hugo is always trustworthy, isn't it?"
Rick suddenly realized that Hugo is not a random actor. Hugo's keen intuition for the work has been verified countless times. Not long ago, he lamented Hugo's accurate judgment of the "future water world", didn't he? Now that you have chosen Hugo, why don't you trust him again?
trust. When Rick looked at Hugo again, he became more determined, "I don't know, maybe this is a disaster, maybe we will fall into a quagmire, but... Hugo, I am willing to trust your instinct." After that, Rick couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but seeing the smile on Hugo's face, he quickly added, "At least this time."
Compared to Rick, although Joseph and Samora were a bit surprised, they were obviously better off. Joseph couldn't understand Rick's thoughts anymore at this time. He was almost in this mood when he heard that Hugo chose the scripts "Speed of Life and Death" and "Pulp Fiction".
