The plan of 409 Lang to make a comeback.

This is Philadelphia, not Los Angeles or New York, what are the odds of meeting Ron Meyer here? Infinity approaches zero.

But Hugo saw Lang and appeared in front of him with a smile, you know, even his own agent Joseph, and his good friend Carl, Hugo haven't seen it for nearly three months, but now he sees Lang, which is really a strange situation.

"So, you're in Philadelphia and you're coming to a motel, is there something big going on here today?" At this moment, Hugo thought of Cameron Diaz, maybe there is a movie in Philadelphia today that is being auditioned, and Lang's appearance as an agent is a reasonable explanation. But even if it is plausible for Lang to appear in Philadelphia, it is no coincidence that he appears in a motel.

Lang looked at Hugo and had a lot of thoughts in his heart, although it was Lang who brought Hugo into this circle in the first place, and Lang was very optimistic about Hugo's development prospects; But after three years of ups and downs, Lang still didn't expect that Hugo would be able to come back and even achieve even more 'outstanding' results than he imagined.

This made Lang wonder: if he hadn't given up on Hugo, and he had persevered, would Hugo be standing in a higher position now? And will he really become a top agent?

Hugo's rise in the past year has exceeded Lang's expectations, after the success of "Smell the Fragrance of the 'Woman'" and "The Heroic Wind of the Righteous Sea", Lang actually considered whether Hugo should be pulled back under his banner, and he also took action at that time, extending an olive branch to Hugo at the luncheon at the end of last year.

But at that time, Lang was just trying to do it, and he didn't care about it. The rapid development of events after that also caused Lang to dismiss his original plan, because he knew that Hugo would soon become an outcast again. In Tracy's web of revenge, Hugo is just a dying fish.

However, life is always full of accidents, Hugo, a small fish, actually got rid of Tracy's shackles, seized a small opportunity, and then completed the triple jump, not only swept away the decadence of the past half a year, but also relied on the posture of three masterpieces in half a year to enter the tens of millions of salary clubs in an instant, and now it has obviously gradually grown into a big fish.

Looking at it now, Lang has been excluded from Tracy's next plan, and "Farewell to Love" has become Tracy's killer feature, but Lang can't participate in this work; On the contrary, Hugo, who is in the post-production of "Schindler's List", has successfully leaned on the big tree of Steven Spielberg, and his future is limitless.

Recently, the pace of internal power struggle within the company has become more and more rapid, and Hugo's survival has become a force to be reckoned with, not only Lang, but also Rick Rosen, Marvin Josephson and others are coveted. The foundation of Rick and Joseph's good relationship, Lang has always seen it, and this move, Rick has gone long enough and wise enough, and Lang knows that he is one step behind.

Hugo Lancaster, the little sapling he cultivated, is now about to grow into a big tree, but it is a fledgling agent who harvests the fruit, not a pioneer who sows seeds, which makes Lang's heart very uncomfortable. But Lang also knew that he had not gotten along with Hugo very well in the previous few times, and his bad temper did not leave much room for maneuver.

Of course, Lang has always believed that in Hollywood, there is no absolute loyalty, only interests that do not carry enough weight, in fact, this truth is true everywhere. Hugo and Joseph are now in the honeymoon phase of cooperation, but sooner or later they will 'show' their holes, allowing Lang to take advantage of them. Lang knew that he and Hugo had been together for ten years, from Hugo to the age of fourteen to twenty-four, and the friendship between the two of them was still very deep, otherwise Hugo would not have asked for his opinion on the Golden Raspberry Award. So, Lang believes that all he needs is an opportunity.

Now, here's your chance

Joseph's recent 'spring' is proud, and Lang naturally knows it in the same company, but at the same time, Lang also detects clues, Joseph is negligent with Hugo, making a mistake that almost all novice agents will experience. After the investigation behind the scenes, Lang's conjecture was also confirmed, Hugo and "The Shawshank Redemption" originally cooperated naturally in the hands of Joseph and was about to smash this is the opportunity that Lang dreamed of, so he appeared in Philadelphia and 'spent' to find the city that he arrived in after leaving Washington (on) with great effort.

Looking at Hugo in front of him, Lang suppressed his mixed thoughts in a blink of an eye, and showed a sincere smile, "It is true that there are projects that are about to start, and there are two, both of which are related to you, I wonder if you are interested in sitting down and listening?" ”

Hugo was so familiar with Lang's smile that the memories of the past flooded in his mind, and this smile can be expressed in one word, which is called "no profit, no morning". Although Lang is well-known for his bad temper, he also has the ability to work "well".

"No, I'm not interested." Hugo didn't even think, didn't pause at all, and replied neatly.

In the face of Hugo's answer, Lang's smile stiffened slightly, such Hugo is not the young boy he is familiar with, and now Hugo is no longer a newcomer at his mercy, but Lang quickly recovered, he also expected such a situation, if it wasn't for complete preparation, he wouldn't have flown over the whole of America to Philadelphia at all.

Watching Hugo take a step and go straight forward, ready to ignore Lang's existence, Lang hurriedly spoke, "'The Shawshank Redemption... If nothing else, the actor will be signed tomorrow, and the candidate is Tim Robbins. ”

Hearing this, Hugo chuckled in his heart, because Tim Robbins is the real actor in the memory of "The Shawshank Redemption". So, first, why did Lang know he was talking about the project; second, why did Long know that Tim was about to sign; Third, if what Lang said is true, then why didn't Joseph sue himself, and why didn't Frank contact him?

However, although Hugo was stunned in his heart, and not long ago Joseph neglected the project of "The Shawshank Redemption" because he was too busy with work, it stands to reason that Hugo should be hesitant, and he is not sure what happened to Joseph; However, in front of Lang, Hugo didn't want to 'show' his flaws, he would still believe Joseph, not Lang. Therefore, Hugo only stiffened for a moment, and then returned to normal, without any pause, and continued to take steps.

Long saw that Hugo was still moving forward, and he had to speed up his speech, "'The Shawshank Redemption, the maker of Frank Delabant, was originally the most favorite actor was you, but there was a business trip in the middle, which made Robbins come from behind and was about to sign a contract with the crew, don't you want to know why? Hugo still didn't stop, "Don't you want to win this horn?" Hugo still didn't stop, "If you want, I can contact Frank now, we can have a meeting right away, and if you want to, you can sign a contract today and win this project before Robbins......"

Hugo's footsteps are still moving forward.

"Don't you want to know the twists and turns of this? Don't you want to get this horn 'color'? Lang looked at Hugo's firm steps, his temper suddenly came up again, and he yelled a little more impatiently, and then rushed to Hugo's way, blocking Hugo's way, and then waited for his eyes to look at Hugo angrily, "This is an important project, and it is the project you want, why don't you want to listen to it now?" ”

"I don't want to be involved in this project anymore." Hugo said neatly that after so many things, Hugo was of course willing to vote for Joseph, as for Lang, Hugo admitted that he was very curious in his heart, but he would not know the result from Lang's mouth, he would call Joseph to confirm. Lang is a jackal who cinches at the sight of interests, and he is just a link in the chain of his interests. Therefore, Hugo did not hesitate at all, and completely eliminated all possible 'sex'.

If Hugo is not mistaken, the struggle for power within the company is obviously getting more and more fierce, and Joseph has gradually become involved in this circle, and Hugo, who has succeeded in the three works before and after, is a very important bargaining chip. Lang will come to himself, can't just need chips, can let Lang fly from Los Angeles to Philadelphia, Hugo suddenly laughed, "Lang, to be able to let you come to Philadelphia in person, it seems that this project is really very, very important, or is my chip really weighty?" ”

Hugo's sudden words made Lang's face 'color' change slightly, and in the past year, Lang knew that Hugo's eloquence was very powerful, and his observation was also very keen, but it was still beyond Lang's expectations. However, since it was all broken by Hugo, Lang had no intention of hiding it, but he calmed down and decided to open the skylight and say something bright, "I don't know how true what you said, but I know that the chips in my hand do carry a lot of weight." Lang still avoided Hugo's question, and instead changed the subject.

Long knew that Hugo could leave at any time, so he didn't pause and said directly, "'The Shawshank Redemption... This is my first chip, and I can always reach Frank; In addition, I have another project in my hand, Twentieth Century Fox Investment, which costs 30 million dollars, and is an action drama blockbuster. ”

Due to the limited time, Lang simply 'revealed' a little information, and then paid attention to the expression on Hugo's face, "How about it, two chips, are you interested?" ”

This is the confidence that Lang came to Philadelphia in person, and it is also his killer weapon to win over Hugo, he doesn't think Hugo can refuse such a 'outstanding' proposal, to be precise, it is difficult for any actor to refuse.
