Hugo was sick.

It's actually not surprising that a long suck. People who are poisoned are poisoned in their bodily functions. It is not so easy to regain your health after the damage is made, and it is always more difficult to repair than to destroy it. Although Hugo has been exercising for most of the year, his busy work and unaccustomed diet have delayed Hugo's recovery plan.

It is very unusual that Hugo has not been sick for most of the year, and after falling ill this time, Joseph realized that Hugo's health has not been in trouble for a long time, not even a cold. But this also made Hugo very strict after his illness this time.

Originally, it was just a cold and low-grade fever, but the next day the body temperature began to rise, and it was useless to take the 'medicine' to rest, but the pneumonia began in two days, and the repeated fever symptoms lingered and consumed Hugo's body, watching the fresh energy disappear from Hugo's body little by little, and the warm smile that usually hangs on the corner of his mouth is now pale and weak because of the dry and cracked 'lips' petals, and the dark circles under his eyes make the already bloodless The face of the 'color' looked even more haggard, and the wheat' skin, which had always been shiny, was now like a dense forest full of dark clouds, and there was no brilliance in sight.

Hugo stayed in the hospital for four days, and the inflammation finally subsided, and then he was in the 'bed' again. After lying on the ground for two days, Hugo finally could no longer tolerate the smell of formalin in the hospital and strongly asked to be discharged, so he returned home.

Hugo looked at Joseph in front of him and couldn't help but laugh, "Charlize, Alex and Carl have all lost weight because they have been staying up late, how can you ...... Fat? Joseph looked at the smile on Hugo's face that slowly bloomed against tiredness, and only felt a black line on his head, "Could it be that Charlize and they prepared food for me, and you secretly ate too much at home?" ”

Although Joseph was very helpless, the worry in his heart was finally alleviated, because the smile returned to Hugo's face again, and unconsciously, he was used to such a sunny Hugo. In the past few days, Hugo, who has fallen into a low 'daze' or even a 'coma', has made him very unaccustomed and uncomfortable, and he doesn't like this feeling.

"So, if there's any bad news, you can sue me now." Hugo said lightly to Joseph, but Joseph raised his head and looked at him with suspicion and concern, Hugo pouted, "With Alex here, he can't hide anything at all." And...... You and Carl aren't much better. The heaviness between Joseph's eyebrows could be detected even if Hugo did not deliberately look at it.

This heaviness is not only the fear of Hugo's illness, but also a lingering anxiety. This kind of anxiety Hugo is very familiar, after the failure of the audition for "Big River Love" last year, for a period of time Joseph couldn't even find the opportunity to audition, Hugo saw it in Joseph at that time, but at that time Joseph was still more wary of Hugo, so it was not obvious that the table xiàn came out, and then after the successful audition of "smelling the fragrance and knowing the 'woman'", this anxiety quietly disappeared.

Joseph looked at Hugo's 'desire' and stopped, but this expression was all too familiar, Hugo sneered, "Don't worry, I won't want to live or die." Hugo lowered his eyes and whispered, "There are some things that can be kept in the bottom of your heart, and indulging in pessimism all the time will only stop all the time of life, which will not only not help, but will only make things worse." This is what Hugo felt the most during his illness.

A relationship is over, but it doesn't mean life is over. Whether it is to save this relationship, or to take revenge on this relationship, or to let go of this relationship, life must move on, only by playing the 'spirit' spirit, a qiē is possible, self-pity, crying alone, loneliness and loneliness have never been Hugo's style.

Joseph was very happy to see Hugo's optimism, but it was not surprising that Uma had not appeared during the week that Hugo had been ill - Joseph was still a little worried, but he did not know how to comfort Hugo, so he could only pull the corners of his mouth and pretend to be relaxed, "Yes, but she is just a 'woman', there is no need to embarrass yourself." ”

Hugo chuckled twice and whispered, "yes...... Yes......" There was an unclear love flowing in the drooping eyes, only Hugo could savor the bitterness on the tip of his tongue, and then he raised his head and hid all his feelings, this time, he hid it successfully, "So, you don't need to worry, what is going on?" ”

Joseph considered his own thoughts, he didn't plan to sue Hugo, after all, it doesn't matter whether Hugo knows these things or not, anyway, the result is already doomed, but Joseph immediately thought that Hugo also has the right to know these things, and Hugo is not such a fragile person, and even the withdrawal reaction has to rely on his own gritted teeth to persevere.

"Actually, the matter about you playing big names has subsided." Joseph first said a good news, which made Hugo smile and nodded his chin slightly, this is Hollywood, the shelf life of any news will not be too long, even Woody Allen's shocking family scandal is just boiling for a while, and then disappearing, endless news continues to emerge, diverting people's attention and enriching people's lives. "The impact isn't over yet, though."

"And rightfully so." Hugo is not surprised that the real lethality of any negative news is not at the moment when the news breaks, but the lasting impact after the news is broken, such as the "Water Gate" incident.

The Watergate incident itself was reported on June 18, 1972, by the Washington Post. And after that, the protagonist of the incident, Richard Nixon. Nixon) reacted immediately, and the right strategy actually allowed him to deceive the people and successfully achieve the president's re-election.

But after that, anonymous letters were sent to the court, revealing the hidden secrets behind the incident, and after that, things became more and more complicated, and the truth of the matter became clear step by step over the course of two years, until August 8, 1974, when Nixon announced his resignation, which brought the incident to an end.

Therefore, purely from the point of view of the "big name doubt" incident, the damage to Hugo is not great, after all, this is a specious and contemplative thing, unless there is really correct evidence, it is difficult to define the so-called big name. However, the impact of the incident on the inner thoughts of people inside and outside the circle, and the impact on Hugo's future career, is the most important role of the whole incident.

Joseph looked at Hugo's calm expression, and his anxious feelings were also slightly relieved, "Actually, Warner Records and Universal Music have contacted me before, asking if you are interested in making an album, but I called them this week to explain the situation, and the secretary answered the phone." ”

The point of Joseph's words was that the album was ruined. But Hugo's point was, "Wow, two top record companies are willing to release albums for me?" Is this true or false, and when? ”

"At the Golden Globe Celebration Banquet, it wasn't really a real intention, I just met them...... Anyway, they just mentioned it, and I didn't pay much attention to it before, you know, my whole mind was on the 'end of the world' that day. Joseph said honestly, "And after that, things went 'wave' after 'wave', and I forgot about it." "You can't blame Joseph, after all, he is a film agent, and he really knows too little about the music industry, and he cares too little.

Hugo replied at length, "It seems that they are just an idea, and whether there is a feasible 'sex' estimate has not been evaluated, even if there is no such 'messy' mess, it is not so easy to do." Hugo has a clear idea of his situation, and he has only shown a song "Sunburn" on the "Oprah Talk Show", which can attract the attention of record companies, but not enough for them to pay for an album for him, which is a matter of ten songs.

When Joseph heard Hugo's comfort, his inner anxiety calmed down a little, "And then the ...... of the movie" Speaking of this, Joseph paused, he thought about it, and still did not tell Hugo about the treatment he suffered when he called some producers, screenwriters, and agents to express their interest in a certain project.

When those people almost heard that it was "Hugo's agent", they would start to play Tai Chi in circles, and they didn't want to talk about the project at all; Of course, there are also more 'radical' ones, such as Marshall Heskovitz, who won the Emmy Award for Best Drama Series for the TV series "Thirtysomething." Herskovitz not only sneered at Joseph, but also hung up the phone very rudely.

Thinking of Marshall's ridicule, Joseph couldn't help but clench his fists, but Joseph quickly held his emotions and said to Hugo, "The movie is not going well. 'Sleepless in Seattle' looks like it's going to be played by Tom Hanks. ”

Although Joseph didn't say it, Hugo can also imagine what happened to him, no matter how real the big names are suspicious, at least on the cusp of the current 'wave', they will avoid Hugo for the time being. As for "Sleepless in Seattle", Hugo let out a long sigh at the name of Tom Hanks, and he guessed that perhaps this was the deadliest of all, and the result that Tracy was expecting: now Hugo has not a single project in his hands, not even a standlist, and the audition opportunities are temporarily gone.

Although I don't know what the future will be, Tracy has painstakingly played such a big game of chess just to see Hugo's current miserable situation, isn't it? It's even worse than when the Golden Raspberry Awards were won a year ago. Once Brad Pitt and Uma Thurman can star in "Sugar Coated Trap", and Tracy and Long join hands to win "Schindler's List", then the future of Hugo's hard life is just the beginning.

After experiencing the success of "smelling the fragrance and knowing the 'woman'" and "Yihai Xiongfeng", he originally thought that his career would climb to a new peak, but he didn't expect that he was greeted by an abyss, and he returned to the original point before he stood at the top. No wonder Joseph was agitated, even after Hugo knew his current situation, he inevitably let out a long breath and vented all the boredom in his heart.
