Superstar

Chapter 726: Company chess game

After finishing a day of filming work, Hugo lay lazily on the sofa and put on a vinyl record, "Meet.on.the.ledge". This song is from the 1960s in Britain. The most famous folk rock band Fairport Agreement (. Female) released a famous single in 1969, which is an epoch-making single in the history of folk rock.

After experiencing fatigue, enjoying this short-term relaxation and comfort is also the time Hugo looks forward to most every day. Not only can he relax his mind, but he can also put his body in a completely relaxed state, which is indeed a rare leisure.

The phone rang, breaking the quiet flowing melody in the hall, but Hugo remained motionless. Charlize poked his head out of the bathroom and glanced at Hugo speechlessly, "Hey, you, don’t even answer the phone. !" But Hugo didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, which made Charlize very helpless. He could only walk out while tying his hair, and then answered the phone, "Hello, this is Charlize Theron. "

\".

But there was no voice coming from the other end of the phone, which made Charlize frowned and couldn't help asking again, "Hello?"

Hugo opened his eyes at this time and glanced at Charlize, "Is that phone with no sound again?"

Charlize looked at Hugo and was about to answer, but there was a voice in the receiver. She raised her free left hand and shook it, "I can hear it now, may I ask where it is?" It seems that it was just a line obstacle. , Sure enough, Charlize's expression became clear right afterwards, "Hey, it's you."

Charlize covered the microphone and said to Hugo, "Mr. Perfect." Hugo suddenly realized. "I'm preparing, what's wrong with you? Oh... God, are you okay?"

Hugo closed his eyes again, but his ears could clearly hear Charlize's conversation. The other end of the call should be Stewart-Townsend. It can be seen recently that Charlize and Stewart are progressing smoothly. It seems that Charlize has finally listened to his persuasion and no longer fears "perfection." The relationship between the two has gradually become clear. . Obviously it was what Hugo expected at the beginning, but why does he always feel a little empty in his heart now?

Hugo didn't dare to open his eyes, so he could only listen quietly. Charlize's familiar voice traveled leisurely in the melody. There was a tranquil taste, but for some reason, it hides some bitterness, which makes Hugo's love. The tip of the tongue was slightly bitter, and the beating of the heart slowly slowed down.

"What happened to the evening date?" Hugo asked casually when Charlize hung up the phone. He opened his eyes again and looked straight at Charlize, but he involuntarily lowered his eyes, covering his eyes. He couldn't explain the mixed emotions of unknown origin-he didn't want to reveal such emotions until he figured out what was going on.

Charlize leaned on the wall next to the phone, "Well, there was a little friction between his car and a motorcycle, so we need to deal with it. It's not a big problem, it's just a little later than the expected time. Let me know in advance. ."

Hugo twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, and put out a smile, "It really is Mr. Perfect, everything is in place like this."

Hugo's teasing made Charlize laugh hehe, "This is called a gentleman, gentleman! If it were you, you would do the same, wouldn't you?"

Watching the back of Charlize turning and entering the bathroom, you can faintly hear Charlize humming a tune, dancing like a butterfly in the music of the phonograph speaker, and the smile on Hugo's mouth is stiff, just like that. Disheartened, it bloomed suddenly, and then slowly dissipated at the corner of his mouth.

The woman before the date always has some excitement and throbbing, even the footsteps will become light, as if they are dancing on tiptoes, the trivial footsteps and cheerful heartbeats will float in the air , So that all the surrounding scenery is covered with a thin layer of goose yellow. Even if you close your eyes, you can feel this emotion from hearing, smell, and touch, just like water drops on your skin in midsummer and July.

"Hugo? Hugo!" Joseph called Hugo several times, but found that Hugo did not respond at all, and was completely distracted. He had to shake Hugo vigorously, and Hugo suddenly woke up. Seeing the helpless look of Joseph in front of him, "Are you tired? Or, let's talk about it tomorrow?"

After Hugo's vision saw Charlize put on red high heels, closed the door and left the house, the "slap" of the door closed pulled him back to reality from his thoughts. He quickly took a deep breath and sat upright. Get up, "No, I've slept for a while, and it's all right."

Hugo just noticed that Carl Earle was also sitting opposite, "Hey, you're down too, what about Fujin?" Hugo looked back, and Samora was busy in the kitchen. It is estimated that dinner will be soon. It's coming soon.

"Fujin went to Al Bar. I heard that Green Hill is planning to organize a charity event recently. Fujin also went to see if he could help." Carl explained briefly.

"Oh, Neil and I mentioned this. Our band is also a part of it." Hugo nodded. There are actually not many recent events in Glory to Death. Radio propaganda has been going on intermittently, but the band’s The public performance time has been drastically reduced due to Hugo’s relationship. Therefore, this time the charity event organized by Green Hill, Hugo also very positively said that he would participate. Even if the schedule conflicts, he can also take a day off with the crew. Join the band and participate in the show.

"So, what were you talking about?" Hugo looked at Joseph again and asked curiously.

Joseph and Carl glanced at each other and laughed blankly. It seems that they have said so much, Hugo did not listen at all, and Joseph can only say again, "I want to ask you, I have a contract with you. April is over, what are your plans for the next broker?"

In fact, no matter what the situation is, this is an issue that must be considered. If Hugo continues to hire Joseph as an agent, then Joseph's ownership is a top priority; as now, if Hugo hires Joseph as a manager, then the position of Hugo's agent is vacant, and he must also choose a new contract.

It's just that Hugo's choice is now more relaxed and casual, regardless of Joseph's situation, the entire broker circle is completely a vast sky, let Hugo choose.

Hearing Joseph's words, Hugo's first reaction was to look at Carl. At this time, seeing Carl appear here, Hugo naturally thought that Carl wanted to be his agent. Carl immediately understood what Hugo meant. He waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile, "Now that Charlize and Alex are working for two people, I'm already a little strenuous. If I want to take you, I haven't enough. Ability."

The reason why Hugo is so popular now is because Hugo is in a position where it is not up to it. On the one hand, Hugo's future development prospects are optimistic, and it is obviously a potential stock worth investing in; but on the other hand, Hugo does not. Big enough to not need the help of an agent, relying on your own connections and abilities can establish a foothold in Hollywood. Therefore, Hugo needs an agent, and an agent with sufficient capabilities and connections.

Carl went on to explain, "I'm here because the internal situation of the company is too complicated. If possible, I want to advance and retreat with Joe, so that I can also rely on Joe's contacts." At this point, Carl He patted Joseph on the shoulder and laughed, "However, I just heard that Joe is going to be your manager. Then, I will rely on you. No, it’s Charlize. And Alex is relying on you."

Getting the support of a top actor, although not comparable to the energy of the director, producer, and screenwriter, is still not to be underestimated. Especially what Hugo is now involved in is the huge Jewish network, even if Hugo is only digging the tip of the iceberg, it is enough for people to look up.

Listening to Carl's teasing, Hugo couldn't help but laughed. He nodded, "No problem, I can also enjoy being a big brother." These words made Joseph and Carl both laugh.

After laughing, Hugo again turned his attention to Joseph's question just now, "How is the situation inside the company now? Has it gradually become clear?"

In fact, at the New Year’s Eve luncheon before, Hugo and Joseph talked briefly, but that time they didn’t talk about anything too specific. Now two months have passed, and the situation will definitely change. of.

Joseph closed his smile and gradually became serious, "Well, I heard that Eddie Murphy has agreed to sign with Marvin. As for Arnold-Schwarzenegger... Rick is still fighting."

The originally relaxed atmosphere disappeared in an instant, and Hugo immediately felt the urgency that came over his face. Eddie Murphy and Arnold Schwarzenegger are currently the biggest artists under Rick Rosen. Marvin Josephson had gradually dismantled Lang Meyer’s influence before, and now he is approaching Rick again. That is to say, as long as Rick also loses, it means that Marvin has regained control of the company's decision-making power, and the next step is internal cleaning.

Although actors like Hugo will not be implicated, but will be affected a little, the second-line and third-line actors of a small agent like Carl will be greatly affected.

In other words, things are imminent.

Hugo frowned and thought about it~www.readwn.com~ Didn’t it say that Julia Roberts had signed with Marvin?” Hugo vaguely remembered this.

This time it was explained by Carl, "Julia had already decided, but now that Jianxin Artist Management Company is involved, we don't know what will happen..."

This means that Marvin also realizes that he must cut the mess quickly, otherwise the internal contradiction will evolve into an external contradiction. Even if he wins the control of the company, it will be difficult for him to compete with Jianxin Artist Agency and William Morris Agency. Form an effective confrontation.

"Isn't Jianxin Artist Management Company contacting you recently?" Hugo said this to Joseph.

Joseph nodded, "Very frequently."

As expected.
