Superstar

Chapter 725: Role switching

"Are you crazy?" Joseph blurted out, looking at Hugo in surprise.

Hugo chuckled, "I often hear these words lately." Unfortunately, Joseph is not in the mood to respond to this joke now, which makes Hugo laugh more joyously, but he still resists. Smile, explain, "Look, you don’t have enough confidence in the job of the agent, but I think you are a good agent. Our previous cooperation has always been very good, but I still lack a manager, why can’t Is it up to you?"

Joseph was so stunned by Hugo's words of course that he couldn't refute it, "But...but, uh, you know, I'm an agent.\"

"I know, isn't the manager my exclusive agent?" Hugo said with a smile.

Obviously, Hugo deliberately distorted the concept of manager and agent, but it made sense to explain it this way, and it was very difficult for Joseph to refute it. As a result, he could only look at Hugo dumbfounded.

Hugo was originally just a whim, but the more you think about it, the more you feel that it is feasible, "Look, if you become a manager, many things will be solved. Those conspiracies against you can be eliminated, and you can also help with peace of mind. I'll deal with those hidden arrows that are hard to defend against. You and Samora can share the work together."

"At the same time, the recent invitations to dig corners can be temporarily stopped, and the differences within the company have nothing to do with you. Look at it now, the creative artist agency, the forces represented by Marvin Josephson, and Rick Rosen. Representative power-who else is there?" Hugo looked at Joseph and thought for a while, "Oh, yes, the power represented by Ron Meyer is fine, it depends on the conditions they give, which one is good? , And if you are in line with us, we will sign the contract with whomever. Whether it is a power struggle or a conspiracy, we will have the initiative, regardless of the involvement of the so-called company."

"You...you really simplified things." Joseph was a bit stuttered, not knowing what he should say, or that his brain hadn't turned at all, Hugo's change of thinking was too fierce.

Hugo shrugged and said with a smile, "I just said, this is a choice."

In fact, there is absolutely no problem with Joseph being the manager of Hugo. But the most important thing is Joseph's own wishes.

Hugo will never forget that in July of last year, Joseph had an ambition to create a brilliant career as an agent, so he signed Nicholas Cage, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. . Now although Joseph intends to stay dormant for a while and start over, it does not mean that he has given up. Compared with the manager, the agent is what Joseph has been pursuing all the time.

Joseph was indeed shocked by Hugo’s whim. He hadn’t thought about it before. The reason why he gave up Nicholas Cage and others was that he felt that his current ability was not enough and needed constant polishing; he chose Hugo, Not only because they are friends, but also because Hugo’s work is indeed the one he is most familiar with and most familiar with. The previous cooperation between the two has always been very pleasant.

But now Joseph began to think carefully about Hugo’s suggestions. In fact, Hugo was right. As an excellent agent, he must be able to perfectly handle the coordination and distribution of the work of his various artists, and even Make reasonable use of the cards in your hand to maximize your benefits. For example, Hugo has become the star of "Life and Death". By the way, Matt Damon or Ben Affleck are inserted, as if this week is about to end. Leonardo is like DiCaprio in his own role.

However, in the past eight months, it has been proved that Joseph's lack of ability in this area has directly led to misunderstandings and disputes with Hugo, and indirectly led to the result that Nicholas Cage and others are now seeking another job.

But thinking about it the other way round, when Joseph was in charge of Hugo alone, everything went smoothly, and the two-person cooperation model is also very worthy of recognition.

Joseph suddenly realized that Hugo did not just talk about it. This proposal was not only feasible, but also highly implementable. Of course, Joseph clearly knows that Hugo has been lacking the help of managers for the past two years. If it is not urgent before the Golden Globe incident broke out, then this matter must be mentioned after the great success of "Sleepless in Seattle". It's on the agenda. Although Hugo now has Samora as an assistant, which relieves a lot of work pressure, the job of assistants and managers is different. After all, Samora is just an 18-year-old young man, and everything is still learning. .

Joseph raised his head and looked at Hugo, frowned slightly at the smile on Hugo's face, "Are you serious?"

"No, if you still want to be a top agent, then I'm joking." Hugo's ridicule made Joseph laugh dumb, and Hugo himself laughed, "Joe, I just said, this It is a choice. Of course, we have always had many choices in our lives. There are even countless choices every day. Different choices will lead to different answers. No choice is 100% correct."

Joseph looked at Hugo with a complicated expression, "Would you like to trust me?"

Joseph knew very well about Hugo and Uma, so he also knew how severe Uma’s betrayal was to Hugo. "Trust" was always a problem and a problem for Hugo. the core issue. In the past few months, although Joseph has not betrayed Hugo, he has indeed failed Hugo’s trust. This is also the reason why he still has guilt in his heart. He deeply knows that his actions are for Hugo. Said it hurts.

The smile at the corner of Hugo's mouth narrowed slightly, and there was more confusion in his eyes.

Is Hugo willing to believe Joseph? He is willing, but there is no way. If it weren't for Tracy, Hugo would say so, maybe he and Joseph would still fight at the "Schindler's List" celebration party and then reconcile, but he couldn't believe Joseph again so quickly.

But through Tracy's matter, Hugo knew that Joseph was not only guilty, but also not just a review. He was as sad and sad as himself.

People say that “it’s hard to find a confidant.” Maybe someone can meet the love of a lifetime, but never meet a confidant. The trust between friends seems simple, but it is far more difficult than lovers and relatives, because relatives are The blood connection and lover are connected by love, but friends do not have any direct personal relationship, only relying on loyalty. Therefore, the friendship that is truly worth paying for is rare.

Not only the matter of Tracy, but also the recent events in the "Speed ​​of Life" crew, including the bits and pieces of their past collaborations, let Hugo know that Joseph is a trustworthy friend. Therefore, he is willing to believe in Joseph again, and he will try to believe in Joseph again.

As for how things will develop this time, time will prove everything. Just like when Hugo lent Joseph one million dollars without asking for a reason, trust is actually a gamble. Hugo bet again. Can wait for the answer.

"Joe, do you remember? The one million dollars you owe me have not been paid." Hugo did not answer Joseph's words directly, but said with a smile, "If you include the interest, there is at least one hundred and fifty. Ten thousand dollars. So, I think, if you serve as my manager, can I deduct this cost from your salary and commission every month, and use you as free labor. You know, I I have always had no hope for you to pay me the money. Maybe, I can try again and get the money back in this way."

Joseph was very helpless with Hugo's ridicule, and could only answer with a wry smile, "Since you have said so, it seems that I just don't want to do this coolie, and I must do it."

Hugo shrugged, "I am not a slave owner, I still give you the freedom to choose." This made Joseph laugh involuntarily.

Joseph knew that he owed Hugo too much, starting from when Hugo lent him one million dollars, to leading him to create the peak of his career, and to tolerating his own mistakes. Perhaps, the word "repay" should not be used to describe between friends, because the loyalty of friends is priceless and can never be measured; but Joseph really believes that he should use his actual actions to repay Hugo. Since loyalty is priceless, he will use his trust and loyalty to repay

After thinking about it, Joseph suddenly felt that today’s somewhat depressed mood suddenly became clear. If he can serve as Hugo’s manager, then many things will be solved, not only Nicholas Cage and others, but also Joseph’s treatment of himself. Doubts and positioning. Maybe, Joseph can become an outstanding manager, and then witness Hugo step by step to the peak. This is where Joseph can really shine~www.readwn.com~ The original contract between Hugo and Joseph reached four. The month is over, and now March is almost over, but I didn’t expect this incident to end in this way. Those brokers who are eyeing Hugo don’t know what kind of attitude they will face such a result. Woolen cloth?

Joseph suddenly felt very interesting. He just changed a position, and the situation changed drastically. Seeing Hugo leaving his back to be ready to shoot, Joseph felt more relaxed than ever.

At this time, Samora walked back again and waved the clothing catalog in her hand, "Joe, did you talk to Hugo about this? Isn't this in a hurry?"

Joseph immediately slapped his head with a grin. The focus of the discussion between the two people just now had nothing to do with the clothing catalog. He could only say embarrassingly, "Next time for rest, next time."
