086 Thunder's Fury
Joseph is really angry, these small actions within the crew are actually common in Hollywood, which is also a kind of unspoken rule, second-tier and third-tier actors are unwilling to offend the staff, this is the truth, because the staff does not need to make big moves at all, as long as a little bit of cuò can make the actors suffer enough. If you want to avoid this situation, you must either be on the front line, find a backer, or rely on your own strength to win recognition.
That's what Hugo did, he was conscientious and diligent in the crew, and now he got such treatment from Alleghe! This is unforgivable. Today Alepje just changed the water in the shower, so will tomorrow the collapsed scaffolding be pushed onto Hugo? Hugo is in a bad situation now, but it doesn't mean that anyone can be bullied!
When facing Joseph's thunderous anger, Alepje only felt that his whole body was trembling, and after the pressure reached the extreme, he could only wave his fist, trying to use a frontal battle to ask Joseph for the sense of oppression he had created, but Joseph had already expected this, grabbed Alepje's wrist with his right hand, and then pinched it fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you have anything worth it except for these dirty little actions?" ”
The "dirty" in Joseph's words is so harsh, just now Alleger was still saying that Hugo was "dirty", but now it seems that he should be the one who really makes a fool of himself.
Alepje wanted to say something, but Joseph shook Alepje's hand hard, and then the whole person took half a step forward, pressing Alepje couldn't help but take a step back, another step, Alepje's center of gravity was unstable and he staggered back several steps, and finally avoided the nightmare of wrestling.
Joseph's eyes were fixed on Alepje in front of him, and then he raised his voice and said, "Rob, I need a result. This is the first time since Joseph took over Hugo that he has taken over Hugo so strictly and seriously stood in the position of an agent to fight for Hugo's interests.
Recalling the changes in Hugo in the past three months, recalling the cold eyes of the media and the circle towards Hugo, and then recalling what happened to Hugo during the filming of the "Yihai Xiongfeng" crew, Joseph sincerely hugged Hugo's grievances, and he had to give Hugo an explanation for this matter.
Rob was startled by Joseph's cold voice, in fact, Joseph and Hugo's attitude has always been neither humble nor arrogant, humble and polite, Rob thought that it was because Hugo put himself in the right position after experiencing the Golden Raspberry Award, but now Rob knows that it is not that Hugo is unwilling to show off, but that he thinks that strength is far more effective than bluffing. Looking at Hugo's appearance in the crew, Rob knows that he does owe Hugo an explanation.
Although there are objective reasons for the crew's rejection and indifference to Hugo, there are also reasons for Alleger's provocation, but Rob still let it go when he understands it, and he does not have his own calculations: he replaced Tom with Hugo or under great pressure, both from Columbia Pictures and from the effect after the movie was released. But now it seems that Rob's laissez-faire led to the loss of control of the incident.
Perhaps now it seems that Alerje's actions are not a big mistake, but because of the problem of water temperature, Hugo has a low-grade fever, and the crime is not to death. But the mistakes that were connived at before must be made up, and Allegje's mentality has been unbalanced, and it is inevitable that there will be problems in the future, so now that Joseph asked for an explanation, Rob also took advantage of the situation and gave his decision.
"Aleje, your work on the crew is over at this moment, and you can leave." This is Rob's decision, sacrificing an Allegje to ensure the harmony of the crew, which is a bargain.
Alleger didn't expect this to be the result at all, Joseph's words just now actually came true, he originally thought that even if he was found out, he could get away with it, because it was really not a big deal, it just made Hugo suffer a little physically, but now he has lost his job. And what's even more terrifying is that Rob is not a fledgling director in the circle, which also means that Alepje may not be able to find a job in the future, but the difficulty of finding a job will increase exponentially.
"No, no, it's not the same as what the man said, he said he would be fine......" Alleger looked at Rob in disbelief, "Rob, you can't fire me, I didn't do anything wrong, I just want to teach Hugo a lesson." ”
Joseph was in a state of extreme anger, and even hearing Rob's decision did not ease his feelings, but since Rob had already fired Alleger, there was no need for him to continue to entangle, so he prepared to go back to take care of Hugo. But he keenly heard Aleje's nonsense just now: That person? He? What does this mean, could it be that there are other people behind Alepje?
Joseph's eyes were keenly on Rob, but he quickly denied this opinion, because Hugo's ability to enter the crew can be said to be facilitated by Rob, and if he didn't like Hugo, he wouldn't have hired Hugo. So who will it be, and who else wouldn't want to see Hugo on the set? Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and Martin Baum, or Tracy Jacobs?
"You didn't do your job well, you are an unqualified drama manager, of course I have the right to fire you!" Rob interrupted Alepje's defense, what he said was the truth, even if Alepje sued the union, it was Rob who took the lead, so he didn't need to worry at all, "You have fully stated your thoughts, so I don't think you need to stay here now, you can leave our set!" ”
Rob is usually a kind old man who is always smiling, but he is not indecisive in important matters at all, showing the absolute control necessary for a producer and a director.
Under Rob's command, two men walked up and prepared to take Alepje directly away from the set, but Joseph walked up with an arrow and approached Alepje again, "Say, who ordered you?" ”
Aleje was already completely mentally broken at this time, he laughed lowly, and then his voice became louder and louder, as if he was a madman, "Why should I sue you? These words seemed to confirm Joseph's thoughts just now, and sure enough, someone instructed Alleghe, but then Alepje amplified his voice and said, "No one, no one, I did it, I just can't get used to Hugo's little white face who has no strength and is unwilling to work hard, I want to see what kind of situation this movie will be like after it is released, and then I will laugh at your failure!" ”
The two men didn't give Alepje another chance to go crazy, they just dragged Allegje and left the set.
Joseph stood in place, his brows furrowed, was there someone or no one behind Alepje? Joseph found that Hugo seemed to have a lot of enemies in the circle now, and he didn't think the situation was very good, but they didn't have enough ability to fight back now, so he couldn't do anything.
Accompanied by Rob, Joseph went to visit Hugo again. Hugo only had a low-grade fever and was not a major problem, and after Rob apologized to Joseph again, he temporarily suspended today's shooting.
Hugo woke up after sleeping groggily for more than an hour, and after sleeping a sweat, he was much better, and the whole person was much more awake. After Joseph saw Hugo wake up, he briefly explained the whole ins and outs, and then talked about the treatment of Alleghe, as well as his suspicions that there was someone behind Alleghe.
Hugo listened attentively, but did not have much fluctuation, but laughed. I used to see some unspoken rules in the circle when I was playing tricks, and Hugo still thought it was actually quite interesting to watch the fire from the other side, but he didn't expect that these things would actually come to his head now, which made Hugo realize: He is now a link in this circle, and the so-called unspoken rules will not only not decrease in the future, but will continue to increase, which is just the tip of the iceberg.
"What, what do you think?" Joseph also thought that Hugo had guessed the clues behind the scenes.
But Hugo shook his head, "I don't know so much." If even Joseph couldn't think of it, he would naturally have no thoughts, "But don't worry, I won't be crushed by such a trivial matter, after all, this is just a small 'accident', isn't it?" Hugo blinked slyly as he spoke, which made Joseph laugh and cry.
"The next thing is to shoot the rivalry with Jack, and that's the real test." Hugo knew that this was not only the best chance to prove himself, but also the perfect opportunity to integrate the latest understanding of acting in his heart, so he had been looking forward to this scene, and the thought of being able to play against Jack made his blood boil.
Joseph was a little worried, "But your current state is not good, why don't you push back this scene for a few days, and wait until your fever has subsided." "The rival actor is Jack Nicholson, and the slightest mistake can lead the whole scene to fall short.
This time, Hugo and Jack's rivalry is much more difficult than the previous "Smell the Fragrance and Know the Woman", because in "Smell the Fragrance and Know the Woman", Al's character itself presses Hugo in momentum, and the rivalry is Hugo standing in an oppressed position to resist, so the lack of his own ability is well covered up by the scene. But this time Hugo and Jack's roles are-for-tat, which will expose all of Hugo's weaknesses, which can be regarded as an ultimate test.
Hugo shook his head, although his face was still a little sickly ruddy, but his smile was full of firmness and confidence, "Jack won't agree, he's in a hurry." Hugo looked at Joseph, his amber eyes shining brightly, "Don't worry, this is my moment!" ”
At the same time, it is also a moment that really impresses and surprises the entire crew.
